Chapter 900: Rebellion (2)
One had to admit that nothing beats experience and age.
As soon as Lu Xiangtian said this, Mu Tingfeng and Su Jifeng’s expressions changed at the same time. Apparently, they had also thought of this possibility.
“If that’s really the case, then the purpose of this person…” Lu Xiangtian muttered and suddenly turned to look at Mu Tingfeng. He narrowed his eyes and asked, “Mr. Mu, do you know who Ms. Zhao has offended recently?”
Who has she offended? Other than you and the person locked up in your small dark room, how could she have offended anyone else?
Mu Tingfeng naturally wouldn’t tell Lu Xiangtian this. He could only reply with an expressionless face, “I don’t think so.”
“This is going to be difficult.” Lu Xiangtian rubbed his chin and muttered. The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became somewhat oppressive.
“There was nothing unusual about Ms. Zhao before we parted. Mr. Mu, are you sure one of Ms. Zhao’s enemies had not taken her away? It might not have been a recent enemy, but it might have been in the past.”
Mu Tingfeng frowned slightly. Zhao Youlin had not come into contact with many people since her rebirth. There were only a few people who could be considered her enemies, and most of them had already died. The only ones left were the Lu family.
Wait a minute, other than Lu Xiangtian and Lu Shu, there was another Lu…
Mu Tingfeng was deep in thought when the phone in Lu Xiangtian’s hall suddenly rang happily.
The people in the hall were stunned when they heard the call. The butler was the first to react. He bowed apologetically to the people and quickly walked to the side of the phone to pick it up.
“Hello, May I ask… What? The master? Who are you? If you don’t tell me, I’ll hang up.”
The butler’s words successfully attracted the attention of the people not far away. They looked at each other and turned their eyes to the old butler.
The person on the other end of the phone said something. The old butler turned to look at Lu Xiangtian and started to hesitate.
“Wait a minute, I’ll get the master to pick up the phone.” The old butler unexpectedly chose to compromise in the end. He turned to look at Lu Xiangtian with some difficulty and called out in a low voice, “Sir.”
Lu Xiangtian subconsciously narrowed his eyes. A hint of danger flashed across his eyes, but he still walked over and took the phone from the old butler.
When Lu Xiangtian walked over, Mu Tingfeng and Mu Tingfeng looked at each other and walked over together.
The moment he picked up the phone, Lu Xiangtian understood why the old butler’s expression had been so strange just now. The person on the other end of the phone had used a voice changer.
“You are?”
“Mr. Lu, you don’t need to know who I am. You just need to know that I am here to help you.”
“Help me?”
“Yes. I heard that you were in a hurry to find his long-lost daughter. It just so happens that I have some gossip that I want to share with you.”

Lu Xiangtian’s eyes turned cold when he heard this. Apart from a few confidants in the house, no one else knew about his daughter and Lu Shu. This person said that he wanted to share information about his daughter with him. Was there a mole in the house who leaked the news, or…
“What do you want?”
“Mr. Lu, there’s no need to be nervous. I don’t mean any harm. I just have something to discuss with you.”
“Through a voice changer? Heh, you should be someone I know, right?”
The person on the other end of the phone paused for a moment, confirming Lu Xiangtian’s guess.
“Mr. Lu is indeed sharp. In that case, I won’t waste any more time with you, Mr. Lu. If you want to know the whereabouts of your biological daughter, bring Lu Shu and Li Yan, who are locked in the basement, to the warehouse at the East Pier Tonight at eight o’clock. You’ll get the information you want.”
The person on the other end of the phone seemed to have thought of something. He added, “By the way, President Mu should be with Mr. Lu as well. If there’s nothing else, ask him to come with us tonight. After all, this involves him.”
Lu Xiangtian could not help but raise his head to look at Mu Tingfeng. Frankly speaking, the voice on the phone at Lu Xiangtian’s house was really loud. Mu Tingfeng and Su Jifeng were close to each other, so although they could not hear as clearly as Lu Xiangtian… but they could make rough guesses.
Mu Tingfeng had a bad premonition when he heard that person mention Lu Xiangtian’s daughter. Now, this premonition seemed to have come true.
Mu Tingfeng wasn’t too surprised when he heard that person say that he was invited as well.
Lu Xiangtian looked deeply at Mu Tingfeng. He didn’t say anything, but when he spoke to the person on the other end of the phone, his tone was much colder than before. “Are you so sure that I will definitely go?”
The person on the other end of the phone laughed softly. There was a hint of unspeakable confidence in his teasing. “Whether you come or not is up to you. However, this is very likely the last chance for Mr. Lu to find out your daughter’s whereabouts. Mr. Lu, don’t regret missing it. That’s all I have to say. Goodbye.” With that said, he didn’t care about Lu Xiangtian’s reaction and directly hung up the phone.
Lu Xiangtian listened to the busy tone on the phone and subconsciously tightened his grip on the phone. A cold light shot out from his eyes.
“Get someone to bring Lu Shu and Li Yan out.” Lu Xiangtian put down the phone, took one last look at Mu Tingfeng, and left quickly.
Mu Tingfeng’s eyes flickered, and he quickly followed him.
Su Jifeng was stunned for a moment and followed closely behind. “Tingfeng, where are you going?”
“I’m going to the East Pier with Mr. Lu.”
“Damn, are you really going?” Lu Xiangtian couldn’t help but swear when he heard Mu Tingfeng’s words. “Damn it, I’m going to find my daughter. Why are you going there? Aren’t you going to find your wife?”
Because your daughter is my wife! Mu Tingfeng wanted to yell, but he held back in the end. He only replied vaguely, “Youlin is there too.”
Su Jifeng was stunned for a moment. “Where is your wife? How do you know?”
Mu Tingfeng rolled his eyes at him. He couldn’t be bothered to talk to him anymore. He left him behind and walked toward the direction where Lu Xiangtian had left.
Su Jifeng immediately felt that he was being looked down upon. He chased after Mu Tingfeng and couldn’t help but shout, “Sigh, tingfeng, wait for me. Wait for me. You haven’t explained it to me clearly. Wait for me!”
What Mu Tingfeng and the others didn’t know was that at that moment, at the location that the person on the phone had agreed with them, one of them slowly put away the voice changer in his hand. The corners of his lips instantly curved into a chilling arc.
Opposite him, Zhao Youlin, who was fortunate enough to witness the whole thing, couldn’t help but frown and ask in a deep voice, “Young Master Lu, what do you mean by this? Are you preparing to rebel?”
