The CEO’s Pet Cat

Chapter 184 – The fox always shows his tail



After Asher met Wang Dong, he was even more certain that this incident could not be separated from Wang Dong, the old fox. However, he was so tight-lipped that he refused to say anything, causing Asher to be anxious.

“Isn’t it? But since a fox will always show its tail, it seems we need to meet Namgung to ask.” Claude still had the same uninhibited smile on his face for a thousand years.

Asher didn’t move or change his expression one iota, just replied faintly, “Hmm.”

Time passed, but no matter how many people Asher sent to look for Mia, there was still no news about Mia, as if the whole person had disappeared silently in the city without a trace.

“Asher, you shouldn’t worry too much. As much as I know I’m worried about Mia , I know you care about her more than I do… Later when Man comes, you can ask him properly, and when everything is clear, maybe this dilemma will be solved.”C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Wang Yuxin has been taking care of Lily and Grandpa Jun since she left with Lily’s group last time. after they got well, Nangong Man had a ton of things going on in his company, so Nangong Man put her in Jun’s house in order to worry less and for Wang Yuxin’s safety.

Asher looked at Wang Yuxin with a serious look on his face and suddenly remembered that Mia also liked to look at him like this, and his eyes couldn’t help but darken and lose the shine they had before.

“Don’t be so sad, Mia would be devastated if she saw you like this …”

“Asher, Namgung asked to come.” Suddenly Grandpa Jun’s pale voice came from upstairs.

These days, Grandpa Jun is also the same as Asher is always unable to eat, free to sit on the chair upstairs to look at the door, waiting for Mia’s news. But this look Lily anxious, afraid that Mia people did not wait back, the old man’s body will not be able to eat.

“Nangong Man, you’re finally here.” Asher saw Nangong ask walk in before sitting up straight, after not seeing him for a few days, Nangong ask had also lost a lot of weight.

Nangong asked as he walked in without looking, nodding his head and saying hello to Lily and Grandpa Jun before finding a seat right next to Asher.

“The information you asked me for last time, I went back and did have a look, anything else you want to ask, I think I can answer it all.” Nangong asked and smiled at Wang Yuxin, signaling that he was having an okay time lately and didn’t want her to get hung up.

Asher cleared his throat, signaling that Namgung should ask for the greater good.

Nangong asked, suddenly finding himself watched by a room full of people, all staring blankly at him, waiting to get a response from him, to get a response about Mia.

“What was it you said last time that Mia wasn’t actually an orphan in the proper sense of the word?” Asher asked with a serious look on his face as he gazed at Namco and went straight to the point.

“The truth is, Mia is just without her father and mother, she has other family in the world.” Nangong asked with a deep breath and said lightly.

“What, Mia’s not an orphan? How can that be? I’ve known Mia since she was a child, so if she had other family, how could she have lived in an orphanage until she grew up? It’s impossible!” Wang Yuxin was taken aback by Nangong Man’s sudden explanation. Her eyes were wide, and her small mouth opened and closed, with a completely unbelievable expression.

“It’s true.” Nangong asked as he reached out to stroke Wang Yuxin’s long hair and said gently.

“And if Mia still has family, who is her family?” Asher couldn’t help but feel an increased disgust for the man who had so cruelly abandoned Mia. What right did it have to leave a living being in a place she never knew about, living a life without anyone to love and cherish?

Nangong asked, withdrawing his hand from Wang Yuxin’s hair and saying in a deep voice, “It’s Leng Tianming, the leader of the Shengshi Group.”

Nangong asked a statement that shocked everyone in the room.

Mia is actually Leng Tianming’s granddaughter! I’m afraid this is another very explosive piece of news!

Without paying attention to the expressions of the people around him, Nangong continued, “At that time, Mia’s parents flew back to China from the United States with Mia in their arms. However, the plane had an accident during landing, and the plane was destroyed. Mia’s mother protected her daughter from any harm, so Mia survived.”

Nangong asked couldn’t help but sigh as he spoke, “When Mia’s parents’ bodies were later transported to the Leng family, Leng Tianming had spent a lot of effort to find his granddaughter. But Mia was treated as a fatherless orphan and was sent to an orphanage where she grew up until she reached adulthood.”

“No wonder Mia was always scared of flying.” Wang Yuxin choked back tears as she listened.

“And then what?” Lily interjected.

“I don’t know anymore after that, that’s all I know.” Nangong asked with a long sigh.

Although the previous Nangong asked was not a very cheerful person either, but today’s sigh was with all the compassion he could muster.

Asher’s eyes were as pale as a piece of waxed white paper at the moment.

What kind of courage is it that allows this poor little woman to face God’s merciless trickery again and again; what kind of kindness is it that allows this lovely little woman to forgive herself again and again for the harm she brings to her?

Having given her so much pain himself, he never got to know her properly. One was so preoccupied with feeling one’s own pain that one never bothered to perceive her world.

Mia , where the hell are you? Come back, give me a chance to pamper you with the love of my life!

“But even if we know about Mia’s life now, what can we do about it, and isn’t Mia still unheard of?”

Wang Yuxin is shocked to hear Nangong’s story about Mia’s life, but even if she knows everything about Mia, what’s the point of knowing where Mia is now?

Wang Yuxin’s words were exactly what everyone was worried about, and although everyone was just as shocked, even knowing this news didn’t make things go any better.

Lily took a worried look at her son. Since the last wedding, Asher had lost a lot of weight, his face was already a bit thin, and his cheekbones were now high, and he looked like a sick person.

“Asher, since we already know about Mia’s past,, then maybe we can start with Mia’s past, that might lead to a clue.”

Lily’s soft voice came from her ears and Asher froze, a light flashed in his eyes, yes, Mia’s past was that orphanage.

“Yes, auntie is right, and you shouldn’t be in too much of a hurry. Although what Xin Xin said is true, but when we have a ray of hope, the best thing is to save our strength and feel things out properly, so we can count on living up to any intelligence.”

After Nangong asked said this to Asher, his big hand attached to Wang Yuxin’s shoulder, although he knew that every one of them was anxious to the extreme at this moment, but when there was nothing he could do, he still hoped that some of his words, some of his actions, could warm her up, could make her truly feel his warmth.

“Well …” Asher said one word faintly, in a voice so extremely small that only he could hear it.

Although Wang Yuxin’s heart was anxious as hell, but even if she was anxious, she still needed to wait. Wang Yuxin sighed, the depths of her eyes darkened, closing her eyes and burrowing into Nangong Man’s arms, her tears unconsciously slipping down.

Nangong asked looking at a sad Wang Yuxin, only to feel that each drop of tears on her face, are heavy smashed in his left heart, rushing raw pain. Almost subconsciously, Nangong asked to increase the force of his hands, tightening Wang Yuxin in his arms.

“Asher, you might as well listen to Nangong, this is not the time to be depressed, even if you have a million and one things that are not easy, you have to settle down and work it out well. You know right now Mia is waiting for you somewhere, if you can’t get back on your feet, then who else can she expect?” Grandpa Jun, who had been sitting upstairs for a long time, spoke up unexpectedly when no one knew what to do. At this point Grandpa Jun with his years of experience and sophistication embodied the demeanor of an elder trying to wake up a young man in a funk.

Lily, Nangong asked and Wang Yuxin were both startled by this sudden comforting voice and looked up, looking upstairs.

During Mia’s absence, Grandpa Jun was no less nervous and worried than everyone else in the room. Now he was just like everyone else in the room, unable to do anything. Or rather, he was even worse than everyone else present, at least everyone could contribute, but he was left with nothing to do.

Asher’s body shook at the sudden voice, the long-lost sound of his grandfather’s care, which had appeared for the first time since Mia had disappeared.

Asher clenched the diamond ring in his hand, his fist crunching from time to time from overexertion.

Just as no one was sure of the response, Asher suddenly stood up and turned to look at the old man swaying upstairs behind him.

“Don’t worry, Grandpa, I’ll come back with a Mia that’s as safe as can be!”

Jun Lao’s expression was too far away for Wang Yuxin to really see, but she could clearly see the expressions of Lily and Adam Jun who came after her and just happened to hear Asher’s last words.

It was a comfort, a comfort surrounded by a deep love for your children. Every member of June’s family present had accepted Mia as a person, from the inside out, in equal or different degrees. Mia, no matter where you are now, or whether you are thinking of this family even now. This family does truly remember you, and the feeling of being your favorite family member is finally gained.
