If something were to happen, not only could he not help Yuan Mu Ye, but he would also bring trouble to Yuan Mu Ye, which was why he stayed in the car.

Fortunately, Yuan Mu Ye returned safely.

"It's nothing, let's go back quickly!"

Yuan Mu Ye quickly got into the car.

Lin Meier reluctantly followed Yuan Mu Ye into the car.

"Mu Ye, who is this woman?" Li Pangpang asked curiously.

It was the first time he had seen Yuan Mu Ye bring a woman back.

Yuan Mu Ye leaned back in his seat, looking somewhat tired, and roughly explained Lin Meier's identity and what had just happened.

After listening, Li Pangpang immediately looked at Lin Meier differently.

"I was wondering how those evil ghosts' plans were going so smoothly. It turns out someone was helping them. People like them should be put to death."

Luckily, Yuan Mu Ye discovered this, otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable!

Yuan Mu Ye rubbed his temples and said, "Pang Ge, after we get back, report this matter."

"Okay, what are your plans next?" Li Pangpang asked.

This matter was no small feat, and there definitely had to be a feasible solution, otherwise, it would only be a temporary fix.

At this moment, Lin Meier, sitting next to Yuan Mu Ye, said with a smile, "I advise you not to waste your energy; it's useless."

Hearing this, all three of them looked at Lin Meier.

Faced with the pressure of their gazes, Lin Meier panicked a little and immediately said, "What? I'm just telling the truth."

"Are you hiding something from me?"

Yuan Mu Ye asked with a serious tone.

At this time, how could Lin Meier possibly admit it? She immediately denied it, saying, "Jiang Nan has already told you everything I know. What could I possibly be hiding from you?"

"He only told you what he knows. I think there are things you know that he might not know!"

Yuan Mu Ye stared at Lin Meier and said coldly.

From the beginning, he had felt that Lin Meier's status was higher than Jiang Nan's, so there were some things that Jiang Nan didn't know, but that didn't mean Lin Meier didn't know.

Lin Meier's heart sank. She hadn't expected Yuan Mu Ye to be so difficult to deal with!

But no matter what, she couldn't admit it now.

"I don't know what you're talking about. Anyway, I only know this much. If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do."

Lin Meier acted as if she had given up all hope.

Yuan Mu Ye didn't press her but asked with a smile that wasn't a smile, "Then can you at least tell me, what is your relationship with the Shangguan family?"

Even if Lin Meier was just a dog of the Shangguan family, this dog's status was likely not ordinary.

If she was just an ordinary dog, how could the Shangguan family entrust such an important task to her?

"What kind of relationship could there be? Just working for them." Lin Meier responded indifferently.

Yuan Mu Ye laughed. That was a lie that even ghosts wouldn't believe.

"They must have given you a lot of benefits; otherwise, why would you be willing to risk your life for them?"

Lin Meier frowned slightly. It seemed that nothing could be hidden from this guy's eyes.

The more she said, the more mistakes she would make. Lin Meier simply stopped talking.

But just at this moment, her phone rang.

Lin Meier froze, not intending to answer the phone. Lin Sheng had to remind her to answer it.

"Answer the phone. What are you thinking about?"

Lin Meier hesitated for a long time before taking out her phone.

Yuan Mu Ye glanced at the caller ID. It simply said: Boss.

It was probably a call from someone in the Shangguan family.

"Put it on speaker!" Yuan Mu Ye ordered, his tone containing a hint of command, not allowing Lin Meier to refuse.

Lin Meier had no choice but to comply.

"You should know what to say and what not to say!" Yuan Mu Ye reminded her again.

Lin Meier didn't respond. After answering the phone, she turned on the speaker.

Soon, a man's voice came from the phone.

"Why are you answering the phone so late? Did something happen over there? Why can't I reach Wang Ming?"

Faced with the man's three consecutive questions, Lin Meier was a little at a loss. She really wanted to tell her boss what had happened tonight, but she couldn't.

Lin Meier finally responded in a low voice, "Boss, Wang Ming is missing. Jiang Nan and I encountered an accident on the way and got separated from Jiang Nan."

Hearing this, the man on the phone immediately became angry.

"Are you kidding me? This is a critical moment. How could Wang Ming disappear for no reason?"

Lin Meier frowned and said, "I'm not sure about that either. I'm still looking for Jiang Nan."

"Lin Meier, I entrusted this matter to you because I believed in you. I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer. Otherwise, you know my temper!"

After saying this, the man hung up the phone directly.

Lin Meier's face turned ashen. She couldn't express her bitterness.

"Are you satisfied now?" Lin Meier couldn't vent the anger in her heart, so she could only complain to Yuan Mu Ye, after all, Yuan Mu Ye had caused all of this.

Yuan Mu Ye looked at her indifferently, not angry, but asked in return, "Do you think it's worth it to do this?"

Lin Meier was a little confused by this, but she quickly understood Yuan Mu Ye's intention and said coldly, "You wouldn't be trying to persuade me, would you? I advise you to give up on that idea as soon as possible. The boss is my savior. No matter what, I will not betray him."

No wonder!

Although Yuan Mu Ye didn't know who the person who had just called was, now that he had confirmed it was someone from the Shangguan family, it should be easy to investigate.

"Mu Ye, why bother talking so much nonsense with her? Just throw her out of the car."

Li Pangpang really didn't like Lin Meier.

"She's still useful!"

Yuan Mu Ye only said these few words, and Li Pangpang stopped talking. He knew that whatever Yuan Mu Ye did, there was a reason for it.

Back at their resting place, Yuan Mu Ye arranged a separate room for Lin Meier.

Lin Meier didn't give Yuan Mu Ye a good look at all and even said, "Don't think that doing this will make me listen to you obediently."

"It's up to you whether you listen or not. Even if you want to run away, it's up to you."

Yuan Mu Ye didn't care at all. He turned around to leave, but suddenly remembered something and turned back to remind her, "But if the Shangguan family finds out that you betrayed them, I don't know what they'll do to you."

Faced with his threat, Lin Meier was angry, but there was nothing she could do.

Now, even if she escaped, she had nowhere to go. Most importantly, Jiang Nan and Xia You were still being held by Yuan Mu Ye, and she didn't know where they were being held. She could only play it by ear.

"I don't need you to remind me!"

Lin Meier directly closed the door to the room.
