Chapter 3808: 3808
“To tell you the truth, I don’t know where she is . ”
“That’s impossible . She was living in your South Side Recuperation Center . She only left the hospital when you had your birthday party . ”
Obviously, Secretary Zeng knew Zeng Rou’s activities very well .
“But she’s a patient in the hospital . Her whereabouts is her personal business and I don’t have the right to intervene… I’ve been looking for her and trying to contact her . I even pulled out the video surveillance of the hospital but found no clues . I think you’d better ask her bodyguards . They guarded her and should know better than I do . ”
Huo Mian didn’t stammer just because the man was the party secretary of the provincial government .
Instead, she replied with dignity and even revealed a trace of disapproval about Zeng Rou .
Director Wu listened to their conversation in silence . In fact, he was totally in the dark .
About to retire, he had handed out many of his duties and seldom went to the First Hospital .
His immigration application had been approved, and he was about to wrap things up with Huo Mian and went abroad to enjoy his retirement .
But before he could leave, such a big thing happened .
He didn’t know Zeng Rou, but from the conversation between Huo Mian and Secretary Zeng, he understood the secretary’s daughter went missing when she was recovering at South Side .
Director Wu was alarmed; if the secretary’s daughter went missing, no matter how it happened, South Side couldn’t get out of it unscathed .
“Child, I heard you’re very good with your speech; now I know the rumor is true . Instead of being frightened, you complained about me . ”

“Secretary, I didn’t complain . I was stating the facts . Zeng Rou’s my friend . In fact, her wound has healed long ago, but I don’t know why she still stayed in the hospital . I think she might have other things to do . I think you can do some investigation on it, Secretary . ”
Huo Mian didn’t know if Secretary Zeng knew about her daughter’s eavesdropping of her, so she said the words to test the waters .
Sure enough, Secretary Zeng’s eyes turned unreadable after hearing her words .
“Don’t worry . I summoned you guys here just to understand the situation . ”
“Secretary, if your daughter truly went missing, it’s a big deal . I suggest you get our local police to search for her,” Director Wu said these words . But did the secretary dare to ask the police to search for his daughter?
“I’m still trying to figure out the situation . I don’t know if Rou went for a trip on a whim or was kidnapped . So I don’t want to act rashly . If she was kidnapped, getting the police to search for her would alert the kidnappers . I’ll think about it . ”

Secretary Zeng lifted his hand and rubbed at his temple .
As a father, he was truly worried about his daughter .
Huo Mian pitied him and said, “Secretary, I don’t suggest a big-scale search . You’d better do it secretly . Zeng Rou is an adult and very smart . I think the kidnappers are definitely not ordinary people . I wonder if they have a political agenda . It would be troublesome if they did it because of your position . ”
Hearing Huo Mian’s words . Secretary Zeng furrowed his brows tighter .
“I know . You can go now . ”
Seeing he couldn’t get any useful information from them, Secretary Zeng waved at his people and had them usher Huo Mian and Director Wu out .

On their way back, Director Wu didn’t dare to ask about the issue, so Huo Mian didn’t speak to him .
She felt Zeng Rou’s disappearance was very complicated and wondered about the force behind the kidnap . Did it have anything to do with…Yan?
It was true that it was a piece of cake for Lu Yan to kidnap someone . But Huo Mian didn’t believe Yan would kidnap someone from under her nose without telling her first .
Meanwhile in a broken fishing boat, Zeng Rou lay unconscious in a sack; only her head was revealed .
“Wake her up with water . ”
