“Don’t cry for now,” Mei Yan walked over to comfort her, “My sister will surely find a solution to help you. Sit down and wipe away your tears for now. We will all brainstorm together to find a solution.”

“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to bring my family matters into work.” Tang Mei said, tears streaming down her face.

Her family situation hadn’t been good lately. Although her younger brother was an adult, he neither went to school nor worked, spending his days idly. Whenever he needed money, he would come to her for it.

Her mother couldn’t work due to poor health, so the entire family relied on Tang Mei’s income.

Despite working for Mei Shu and earning a good salary, she never managed to save any money.

Now with such an incident happening again, it was really difficult for her to come up with three million.

“This matter is actually not difficult to handle.” Mei Shu, through her own and Master F’s specific channels, included the entire urban area near the location where the mobile phone signal was just sent out in their search scope, and it was indeed through this that she found a breakthrough.

“This area was raided by the police before. There used to be a casino here, operated by a man known as Brother Mountain Tiger. However, Brother Mountain Tiger was imprisoned, and the casino was shut down. Now, a group called the Plum Blossom gang is in control here. The people who kidnapped your brother might be associated with them.”

Mei Shu shared the information she had found with them.

Mei Yan, stroking his chin, adopted a pensive expression mimicking what he had seen on TV, and said, “Then I’ll go raid their base to see if Tang Mei’s brother is there! Ouch!”

Before he could finish his sentence, Mei Jing’s palm landed on his head. Clutching his head in pain, Mei Yan glared at him, “Why did you hit me?” Mei Jing shook his head, “Do you think you’re part of the mafia or the police? Raiding the casino’s base, do you want to throw your sister into the lion’s den?” “Of course not, Sister won’t go! We can ask Brother-in-law for help!” Mei Yan blinked innocently, “Sister, what do you think of my suggestion?”

Mei Shu tapped his head, “Not good!”

“Why?” Mei Yan, now feeling a bit aggrieved after being hit again.

He was genuinely trying to help!

Mei Feng interjected, “Sister, don’t you think the name of this force, Plum Blossom, sounds strange?”

Mei Shu raised an eyebrow, “What do you mean?”

Mei Feng continued, “There’s a person who has been on the run for a long time and hasn’t been caught yet.”

Upon hearing this, Mei Jing knew that his sister was talking about the person whom he had been keeping an eye on for a long time. “If it’s really him, I’ll personally make sure this guy gets what he deserves! If it weren’t for this coward abandoning Feng Wei for a bit of money, Feng Wei wouldn’t have been forced to kidnap Sister!”

“Are you talking about Mei Cheng?” Mei Yan finally caught up.

“It’s very likely him. If that’s the case, we must deal with this matter thoroughly. We can’t let him continue harming people and tarnishing sister’s reputation,” Mei Feng said.

“Let’s not get too emotional. I’ll find a way to verify this matter. Let’s eat first. Even if we’re in a hurry, we should fill our stomachs first,”

Mei Shu handed a tissue to Tang Mei, “Stop crying for now. Crying won’t solve anything. My suggestion is still to report to the police. If you’re not comfortable with that, it’s okay. I know a policeman; we can ask him for help privately.”

“Thank you, President Mei,” Tang Mei choked up, clenching her fists as if making a decision, “Then 1’11 listen to you!”

Mei Shu nodded, sending a message to Captain Liu, then turned back, “Let’s eat first. The deadline they gave for repayment is tonight. We still have time.” Meanwhile, in the underground garage of the casino.

A man with a grim expression sat behind a desk, facing Tang Long, who was tied to a chair and unable to move.

“Boss, their family doesn’t seem to have that much money. This kid owes us only three hundred thousand. If we ask for three million directly, won’t they call the police?” a curly-haired thug cautiously handed a cigarette to the man. After lighting the cigarette and taking a drag, the man exhaled a smoke ring before leisurely saying, “If they dare to call the police, I’ll kill this guy. To be honest, I don’t care about the lives of these siblings. My target from the beginning was someone else.”

The curly-haired thug, quick on his feet, blurted out, “Are you referring to Miss Mei from the Mei family?”

The man threw the cigarette butt to the ground and extinguished it with his foot, “I’ve ended up in this situation all because of that bitch and Lu Si. I won’t let them off. I’ll make everyone around them suffer!”

“Boss, however you plan to proceed, we’re with you. If it weren’t for you saving our lives, we would’ve been caught by those cops long ago! Don’t worry, we’ll definitely help you make that woman’s life a living hell!”

The curly-haired thug spoke up, and the others immediately chimed in with their agreement..
