Chapter 238 The Tragedy of a Dancer (22)
"Judging from my sister's appearance, she seems to be doing quite well these days!"
Thinking about the missing stash of money, Xia's mother felt a surge of anger.
"She took the family's money and ran away without a word. Her family was frantic with worry, while she's living a good life all by herself?"
When she said this, Xia's mother was practically gritting her teeth.
"Do you know where she lives now?"
Xia Mingzhu shook her head. "I asked, but she didn't tell me!"
"and then?"
Now it was Xia Mingzhu's turn to be stunned. "What, then?"
"If she won't tell you, can't you just follow her and see where she goes?"
Xia's mother's tone was tinged with disappointment as she questioned him.
At that time, Xia Mingzhu was playing the role of an understanding woman, and was having a tragic love story with Zhou Fei. She had no time to worry about these things.
At this time, Xia Mingzhu's relationship with Zhou Fei was still a little lacking, so she was unwilling to reveal everything.
So, faced with her mother's accusations, she couldn't say much and could only remain silent.
At this moment, Xia Mingwei carried all of Xia Tianyao's hopes, so how could he possibly let her go?
As long as there is even a glimmer of hope, he cannot give up, nor dare he give up!
Once he chooses to give up, the day he loses his hands and feet won't be far off!
The thought of living such a miserable life filled Xia Tianyao with fear, and he hurriedly asked, "Where did you see her?"
This time, Xia Mingzhu didn't hide anything and told the whole truth.
After listening to Xia Mingzhu's words, Xia's mother and Xia Tianyao both deduced that the place where Xia Mingzhu and Xia Mingwei met was the area where she had been active during this period.
By keeping watch in this area, the chances of finding Xia Mingwei will greatly increase.
With this in mind, Xia's mother and Xia Tianyao dared not stop for a moment and quickly began their search.
Xia Mingwei had already learned of the Xia family's plans through Xiao Ba's relay.
Since she hadn't yet witnessed their ugly dog-eat-dog behavior, it wasn't a good time to show herself, so Xia Mingwei chose to avoid them.
Following Xiao Ba's suggestion, Xia Mingwei went to and from get out of class as usual, but just missed her family members who were looking for her.
They searched for several days, but to no avail.
But time waits for no one, and the gambling den eventually came knocking.
"The one-month deadline is up. Tell me, are you going to pay me back or cut off my hand?"
The leader, Brother Biao, smiled at Xia Tianyao and asked casually.
The tone was as casual and relaxed as if asking about the weather today.
Upon hearing this, Xia Tianyao immediately knelt down.
"Brother Biao, please give me a few more days! I promise, as soon as I raise the money, I'll pay you back immediately!"
Xia Tianyao knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing.
Seeing her son kneeling on the ground, begging so humbly, Xia's mother couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.
She wanted to help him up, but after glancing at the men around her with their fierce faces, she had to abandon the idea.
