Chapter 1725: She’s Gone!
The man strode forward.
Lou Lan looked at his back and thought about what he had just said. She felt conflicted and hesitant.
Just as the man was about to disappear, Lou Lan chased after him.
Hearing footsteps behind him, the man slowly smiled.
…
Long Mei looked around the banquet hall but could not find her boyfriend. Just as she was about to ask the service staff for help, someone bumped into her.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to bump into you.”
Long Mei’s dress was stained by red wine. Hearing the woman’s apologetic voice, Long Mei looked up.
Seeing Lou Lan standing in front of her, apologizing nonstop. Her eyes were still slightly red, as if she had cried. The rebuke that Long Mei was about to give turned into a simple sentence, “Forget it. You didn’t do it on purpose.”
“Thank you, Mei’er.”
“Miss Lou, we’re not that close yet. Please call me Miss Long.”
Seeing Long Mei’s cold attitude toward her, Lou Lan lowered her eyes. “Miss Long.”
Seeing that Lou Lan seemed to have suffered a blow and was not in the least bit energetic, Long Mei could not be bothered to say anything more.
Lou Lan found Xiao Ying. Before she could say anything, Xiao Ying saw her red wine stained gown. “Mei’er, why is your gown wet?”
“Someone accidentally bumped into me. Sister-in-law, can you bring me to your room to change into a gown?”
Long Mei and Xiao Ying’s figures were similar. They were both slim and exquisite, with excellent proportions.
Xiao Ying nodded. “Okay.”
“Thank you, Sister-in-law.”
Xiao Ying glanced at Long Ming, who was talking to the Duke and his wife. Not wanting to disturb them, she brought Long Mei to the bedroom.
He opened the door of the dressing room and let Long Mei choose a suitable gown for herself.
Long Mei chose a dress to change into. She had just reached the door with Xiao Ying when she suddenly felt dizzy.
Xiao Ying quickly grabbed Long Mei.
“Mei’er, what’s wrong?”
Long Mei frowned, as if all of her energy had been sucked out of her. She leaned against Xiao Ying weakly. “Sister-in-law, help me to the sofa to rest.”
Xiao Ying hurriedly helped Long Mei over. However, she had only taken a few steps when another bout of dizziness struck her.
Xiao Ying took a few steps back unsteadily. Without any support, Long Mei lost her balance and they fell to the ground together.
Long Mei was the first to faint. Xiao Ying was still a little conscious and with her blurry vision, she could vaguely make out a slender figure standing in front of her.
That slender figure glared at her angrily.
Xiao Ying opened her eyes, wanting to see who it was, but the dizziness in her mind was getting stronger and her eyelids became extremely heavy.
…
Lou Lan quickly helped Xiao Ying change out of her gown into Long Mei’s pink gown. Then, she brushed Xiao Ying’s hair away. After everything was done, she glanced at the banquet hall downstairs.
Long Ming happened to be talking to a VIP in the back garden and the Duke and his wife were surrounded by several guests. Lou Lan helped Xiao Ying up from the ground.
Walking out of the room, she handed Xiao Ying to that man.
The man helped Xiao Ying downstairs, one arm around her waist and the other holding her head.
Xiao Ying’s hair fell down, covering her face so no one could see her face clearly.
The man brought her in front of the couple. “Your Excellencies, my girlfriend drank too much and isn’t feeling too well. I’ll take her away first.”
The Duke and his wife looked at the woman in the man’s arms. She did look uncomfortable and they did not want to keep her. “Okay, bring her back to rest early.”
The man brought Xiao Ying out of the banquet hall.
Half an hour later, Long Ming came in from the back garden. He searched the banquet hall but did not see Xiao Ying. He walked in front of the couple who were entertaining the guests and asked in a low voice, “Where’s Long Ying?”
The Duke and his wife thought that Xiao Ying was with Long Ming. After all, they had not seen each other for a few days. From their eyes, they could tell that they missed each other.
The Duke’s wife was stunned. “She’s not with you?”
Long Ming furrowed his eyebrows slightly. “No.”
It was such a grand banquet tonight. As one of the main characters, it was impossible for Xiao Ying to disappear for more than half an hour for no reason.
The Duke’s wife also realized that something was wrong and panicked. She hurriedly asked the butler behind her.
The butler said, “I saw Miss Long coming to look for Miss earlier and they went upstairs together.”
When the Duke’s wife heard this, she felt that something was amiss.
Hadn’t Long Mei been taken away by her boyfriend?
Long Ming pursed his lips tightly and did not ask anything else. He headed upstairs.
When he reached Xiao Ying’s bedroom, he raised his hand and knocked on the door.
No one responded even after a while.
Long Ming pushed the door open.
A slender figure was lying on the bed.
Long Ming’s tensed nerves relaxed slightly. Perhaps she was too tired and came to the room to rest.
Long Ming loosened his tie and strode toward the woman on the bed.
She was sleeping on her side, her hair falling down to cover her face. Long Ming raised his fingers and pushed her hair away.
A fresh and charming face was revealed.
When Long Ming saw the woman on the bed, he froze.
This was not Xiao Ying, but Long Mei!
The Duke and his wife had also arrived upstairs. When they saw the woman lying on the bed and the man who had suddenly taken a big step back, they realized that something was wrong and quickly entered the room. “Your Majesty, what’s wrong?”
The Duke’s wife walked quickly to the bed and her face paled when she saw that the person lying on the bed was not Long Ying, but Long Mei.
How could this have happened?
Where had Xiao Ying gone?
The Duke’s wife suddenly thought about how Long Mei’s boyfriend had been holding onto a woman whose figure was similar to Long Mei, but her face could not be seen. Could it be…
All the hair on the Duchess’s body stood up.
Oh my goodness, could Long Mei’s boyfriend have been holding her daughter?
The Duke’s wife took a few steps back unsteadily and almost fell. Fortunately, Long Ming was quick enough to catch her.
The Duke’s wife really liked Xiao Ying and did not want anything to happen to her. However, her daughter had been taken away at such a grand banquet tonight!
Long Ming stared at the unconscious Long Mei on the bed, his expression extremely tense.
“Madam, are there surveillance cameras at the door?”
The Duchess nodded with a pale face. “Yes, yes.”
“Madam, you’re in charge of waking Long Mei up. I’ll go check the surveillance cameras and arrange for someone to get Xiao Ying back.” Long Ming looked at the Duke. “Uncle Long, you should go downstairs to entertain the guests as usual.”
The Duke’s wife grabbed Long Ming’s arm and tears filled her eyes. “Your Majesty, you must find Ying’er as soon as possible.”
