Chapter 976: We Won’t Leave If We Can’t Find Lan Lan

“That’s me. What is wrong with you?” Han Xue asked with a frown but she felt very uneasy. She knew that Wang Lan’s parents had come to pay a visit but she didn’t expect them to still be loitering around their house two days later.
“Mrs. Ye…” Chen Meifeng said. Her face was as white as a sheet and her eyes were swollen because she had been crying for some time. “Mrs. Ye, the Ye family has to give us an explanation. Our daughter has been employed by the Ye family for four years and now that she has been missing for a week, why haven’t you investigated her disappearance? Are you going to pretend that nothing has happened?”
Chen Meifeng was very agitated and her hands were balled into fists. It was only today that she finally met the mistress of this house and she hadn’t seen hide nor hair of Ye Hao over the past two days.
These people were too cold-hearted. No one knew whether her daughter was dead or alive but these people didn’t seem to be fazed by her daughter’s disappearance at all.
Han Xue turned away and there was a trace of annoyance in her eyes. When she turned back to face the couple, she snapped in irritation, “Isn’t the police investigating this case? Your daughter has only gone missing, so she might have deliberately gone into hiding. Why are you constantly kicking up a fuss at my house?”
Han Xue sounded very agitated but no one saw the guilt that flashed past her face as she spoke.
“Please leave. I’ll get my men to chase you out of the house if you refuse to leave,” she said. Then, she suddenly shrugged their hands off her and walked out of the house without hesitation. She couldn’t be bothered to pay any attention to this couple.

She had only taken a few steps before Wang Lan’s father Wang Dongming grabbed hold of her sleeve.
“Mrs. Ye, please watch your mouth. Our daughter had served the Ye family for four years, so even if you don’t feel anything toward her, you should still be taking some responsibility in investigating this case,” he said angrily. He hadn’t expected Han Xue to be such a cold-hearted person.
“In any case, we wouldn’t leave until we find Lan Lan,” Wang Dongming said as he clenched his fists angrily.
Han Xue’s heart raced and she bit her lip in annoyance.
“Fine!” she said as she shook his hands off her. Then, she turned to face them and said, “I’ll get someone to investigate her disappearance.”
Then, she strode out of the house.
She knew that she couldn’t return to this house for the moment if she didn’t want to be harassed by this couple.
Han Xue drove out of the house. She was so irritated that she drove straight toward a mall.
She would always go shopping whenever she was upset because shopping was the only way to make her feel better.
She first went to the makeup section and bought tens of thousands of dollars worth of makeup including lipsticks, foundation, and so on. Then, she headed to the female clothing section on the second floor and purchased several outfits. After she was done shopping, she stuffed all her shopping bags into her car.
She was about to start the engine when two uniformed police officers suddenly appeared in front of her.
An officer knocked on her window.
She instinctively shrank back and her heart clenched when she saw the police. She looked at them nervously and in confusion and her heart raced wildly.
It was some time before she finally rolled down the window.
“Mrs. Ye, please follow us to the station,” the police officer nodded at Han Xue and said politely.
Han Xue suddenly shivered and her face turned pale.
“Why do I have to follow you to the station?” she asked and she couldn’t help but feel worried.
