Chapter 222 Finding Him In The Crowd



Li Caiyi went downstairs with Li Chunhua and walked with her to a more crowded street so she could stop a cab. While walking, Li Chunhua suddenly talked in a serious tone.

"Xiaoyi, it might be better not to mention his family before him."

Li Caiyi nodded her head with no surprise shown on her face. "Yeah, I know. I suppose you already know about his history because you even warned me about it?"

"Don\'t have any weird ideas again. I accidentally knew about it, okay?" Li Chunhua sighed. "But why do you seem like you know what I was talking about?"

"Honestly, I know nothing about Jingfei, but I could feel that the atmosphere didn\'t feel quite right earlier after mentioning the Shao family."

"Yeah." Li Chunhua paused briefly. "Xiaoyi, will you come back to the house?"

"Huh?" Her question caught Li Caiyi off guard. She planned to leave, but of course, after settling everything first, or else she wouldn\'t feel comfortable when she left. "Of course, I will."

Li Chunhua nodded. "Alright, I feel relieved now. You don\'t have to walk with me anymore. I can walk alone from here by myself."

"Will you really be okay?"

"The street is just ahead of that corner. I\'ll be fine."

"Then be careful on your way. Call me if anything happens."

"See you tomorrow, Xiaoyi." Li Chunhua bade her goodbye before walking away.

Li Caiyi said she would let her go alone, but as expected, she couldn\'t calm down if she didn\'t witness her sister drive away in a taxi with her own eyes, so she secretly followed her. Only after Li Chunhua got in the cab did Li Caiyi go back to Shao Jingfei\'s place.

As she walked, she noticed that this part of the city looked exceptionally bright around this time. Shao Jingfei\'s cafe was located in an inconspicuous alley in a busy street filled with restaurants and bars. Usually, people wouldn\'t know there was even an alley here.

Li Caiyi felt that Shao Jingfei probably chose a poor location for his cafe. With so many other attractive places like this, people wouldn\'t have time to check on the deserted alley where his cafe was. She knew little about business, but she at least knew that much.

Since this was a rare chance, Li Caiyi took her time looking around. The street was crowded with people walking in a group, and there were many couples walking arm in arm since this street was filled with good dating spots or hang-out places.

Li Caiyi made sure to walk on the inner side of the street so she wouldn\'t get splashed by the puddle of water when a car passed by.

Li Caiyi was admiring some accessories displayed on the stall on the roadside when a person ran past her and bumped into her. Thankfully, she got a good balance and didn\'t fall face-first onto the wet street. The one who bumped into her didn\'t apologize before disappearing into the crowd.

"How rude," Li Caiyi grumbled in annoyance. No matter how much in a hurry you were, how could he just go away without apologizing after crashing into someone?

Li Caiyi glanced in the direction where the man came from out of curiosity. Her gaze fixed on a crowded-looking bar, which was only a few meters from where she stood. It was named Rose Bar, and she could hear faint disco music and people\'s laughter from within.

"Did he just come out of that place? Don\'t tell me he is the type who drinks without paying." Li Caiyi sneered before deciding that she should go back to Shao Jingfei\'s place soon.

"Have you found him yet?!"

"No, it seems he had run away."

Li Caiyi almost couldn\'t believe her ears when she heard that extremely familiar voice from behind her. It was a voice she had longed to hear for the past week. She spun her body instantly, and her eyes wildly searched for that figure among the crowds.

When she couldn\'t see him, she thought that she probably had misheard since that kind of coincidence was too good to be true.

Until she saw a familiar-looking back wearing a black suit entering the bar she had just examined.

"Zhiqiang!" Li Caiyi called out to him, but her voice was drowned among the other voices in the crowd.

"Zhiqiang, wait!"

She painstakingly tried to move closer while trying not to bump into anyone. Her hand reached out as if she could catch him like that, but that figure quickly disappeared from her sight as he entered the Rose Bar.

Li Caiyi had never felt this frustrated and forcefully squeezed her way through, incurring some people\'s irk on the way, but she didn\'t care.

When she finally got away from that, she went straight towards the bar entrance and was about to storm in when two bulky men wearing black suits stood in her way.

"Excuse me, Miss. Please pardon our rudeness, but you don\'t seem old enough to enter a place like this. May we see your ID card first?"

"Huh? Oh…"

At this moment, Li Caiyi remembered she wasn\'t an adult anymore who could easily go in and out of places like this, but an underage kid. She must have looked like a kid trying to play in an adult place, but she couldn\'t afford to step back now.

Li Caiyi was sure she witnessed Dai Zhiqiang entering this place, but how could he enter while also being underaged? The security didn\'t stop him earlier.

"Miss? Are you really underage? If that\'s the case, we are very sorry, but we can\'t let you enter, or we\'ll get into trouble. Please leave."

"Uhm, I actually saw my friend come in just now. If I can\'t come in, do you think you can check if it is really my friend who has just entered? He has been missing for days, and I have to know if it\'s really him or not!"

The bodyguards exchanged glances with each other before they shook their heads. "Many people are coming and going every minute, and we couldn\'t possibly identify our guests one by one."

"No, I\'m sure my friend works here since he wore the same outfit as you! Wouldn\'t that mean he is an employee here, too?"

One of the bodyguards scrutinized Li Caiyi\'s face and appearance before asking, "If you don\'t mind me asking, what is your friend\'s name? We may know who he is."

Li Caiyi nodded. "Yes! His name is Dai Zhiqiang."
