Mu Lele's entire body was ice-cold. Her body couldn't help but tremble. Right now, she only wanted to confirm a single question.
Was the severed finger in the box someone else's prank, or was it really cut off from my grandfather's hand?
Her lips were trembling as she stared at the box. Suddenly, she saw what seemed to be a thin layer of paper underneath the finger.
Mu Lele's hands trembled as she used all her strength to pull out that thin layer of paper.
However, because it was placed under the fingers and was suddenly pulled out by someone, the blood-stained finger was immediately rolled to the corner of the box. Mu Lele's face turned even paler.
With trembling hands, she held the sheet of paper in front of her and turned it over. On the back, she wrote a few words.
"My dear sister, did you like the first gift that your brother gave you?"
Smith!
This finger was sent by Smith!
An ominous premonition rose in Mu Lele's heart. She hurriedly took her phone from the sofa and dialed the number that had just been connected.
The other side accepted it almost instantly.
"Dear Le Le, you called me much later than expected …" "Did you receive a gift from your big brother? Have you been overjoyed?"
Mu Lele clenched her hands into fists, her nails digging into her flesh.
"Smith, whose severed finger is this?" he asked in a hoarse voice.
A sneer came from the other side of the phone, "Yue Le, don't you know about it? "Don't worry, when I sent someone to make you this gift, that old man was in a coma and couldn't feel any pain."
Hearing this, Mu Lele stood up abruptly. With bloodshot eyes, she asked, "Bastard, what did you do to my grandfather?"
In stark contrast to her impatience, the other party's tone remained as steady as ever, without any fluctuations.
"Little sister Lele, it's been a long time since I've been to China. I only wish to come here with great difficulty and give you a pleasant surprise, right?"
"It seems like you quite like the gift I'm giving you …"
Mu Lele's rationality was on the verge of collapse. He only had Mu Ru as his only family member, so he definitely couldn't let him get hurt.
Thinking about this, she angrily shouted, "Smith, I'm asking you, what happened to my grandfather? I'm not asking you to say all this nonsense! "
"Hehe …" "My beloved younger sister is actually so irritable, it's really rare to see her …"
Smith was like a jackal hiding in the dark to hunt. He was very pleased with himself as he watched his prey approach the trap he had set.
Hearing his mocking laughter, Mu Lele's name had already disappeared. "Bastard, if you dare to harm my grandfather, I swear I will kill you!"
This time, the other party did not evade the topic and said, "Don't worry, Mu Ru is my gift for you. Whether he's safe or not will depend on your attitude."
Mu Lele gritted her teeth and asked, "Speak clearly. What do you mean by that?"
"I just want to meet my dear sister and have a chat. What do you think?"
"What can't be said on the phone?"
Smith drawled, "Telephone..." Don't you want to personally confirm your grandfather's safety? "Don't you want to know what's in the safe I robbed from A?"
Mu Lele had dealt with this pervert too many times. She was very clear about his methods.
Smith must be after his own good, and then he'd dig a hole and bury her in it!
If he wanted to live a little longer, he had to keep his distance from this pervert!
But the problem now was that he had his grandfather.
Mo Le was silent for a long time. Smith said directly, "Sister, brother has spent a lot of time preparing this gift for you. If you don't come and receive your gift, I can only destroy it myself."
"I only need to move my fingers, but unfortunately, there won't be another elder in this world who treats you well like a scholar."
Mu Lele felt that every time she spoke to him, she would break down and go crazy.
However, for her grandfather's safety, she still wanted to feign ignorance. "Whatever you want, just say it!"
A cheerful voice came over the phone, "Just a chat with Le Le is straightforward."
"We'll meet tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock. I'll send you the address later."
"That's right, my dear little sister. Remember to come alone tomorrow. If I find out that you brought a husband or someone else with you, I won't be able to guarantee your grandfather's safety …"
"Bastard!"
Before she could finish swearing, the other person directly hung up the phone.
Mu Lele's hand trembled and her phone slid down to the ground. She wasn't in the mood to pick up her phone and could only sit on the sofa in a daze while covering her face with her hands.
"Grandfather …" "Sorry …" She murmured softly.
After thinking about it for a long time, she decided to visit Smith tomorrow. She absolutely could not give up on her only family.
However, it was impossible for him to go alone!
Last time, he had nearly lost his life when he was tricked by Mu Yuesheng. This lesson was indeed profound. It would be impossible to fall twice in the same place.
Besides, she still had a baby in her womb, so she had to think about his safety before doing anything.
There was still a need to discuss in detail what he should do tomorrow when Li Xiao returned.
"Don't worry Grandpa, I will definitely save you!"
After making up her mind, she closed the box in front of her with a broken finger.
He leaned back against the sofa and placed his hands on his belly.
When he entered the room, he saw his wife sitting on the sofa, pale and motionless.
He rushed forward and asked, "Le Le Le, did I make trouble for you again as my daughter? "Rest assured, when that little girl is born, I will definitely teach her a good lesson so that she can take revenge for you …"
Mu Lele wasn't in the mood to joke around with him. Just as he stood up, he felt his legs go numb. Only then did he realize that he had been sitting on the sofa without moving for more than three hours.
Her legs went soft and she fell backwards without being able to control her weight.
"Le Le! Be careful!"
Li Xiao quickly embraced her waist and pulled her into his embrace. He was extremely frightened.
"Wifey, are you not feeling well? Husband will help you massage your legs."
"This situation is too scary. If you fall down again, you and your daughter will most likely suffer in the hospital …"
Li Xiao said as he hugged her and sat her on his lap, wanting to give her a massage.
When Mu Lele saw how much her husband felt for her, she immediately held his hand with reddened eyes.
"Xiao, something has happened to grandfather …" She pointed to the black box in front of her, then buried her head in his chest.
Li Xiao frowned and took the black box, "This is the express delivery that grandpa sent?"
Just as he opened the box, Mu Lele felt his body stiffen. She briefly recounted what had happened today.
"Xiao, what should I do?"
Li Xiao placed the box back on the table. Then, he picked up Mu Lele's phone and opened the message. Sure enough, he discovered a message inside.
His eyes were full of malice.
He rubbed his wife's head and said, "Le Le, you did the right thing this time."
"A freak like Smith can't be dealt with by yourself, so you should tell your husband in time. We'll think of a solution together."
Hearing the praise, Mu Lele's mood did not turn better. Instead, it turned even heavier.
"Then should I go see him tomorrow?"
Li Xiao pondered for a moment, then said, "Le Le Le, this matter is not as simple as you think."
"Smith lost a lot of money last time, so logically, this period of time should not be enough for him to catch his breath, but now he's risking his life to reappear in China and come looking for you, that means he's planning something big."
Mu Lele thought for a while before raising her head and saying, "Smith must be because of the heirs to the Norman family. That position has now become hotly contested. If Luther wants to kill me, I want one less competitor."
"It's all my fault, Ouyang Mingyue. If it wasn't for her, how could I have attacked from both sides? Grandpa would have been implicated as well?" she said indignantly.
"Le Le, it's easy to get old and not pretty, and it's not good for babies."
After saying that, he flicked his finger towards Mu Lele's face.
After the family incident last time, he already had a high IQ.
Speak clearly, first care for the wife and then care for the child, so that the pregnant wife will not be worried for half a lifetime.
Li Xiao sighed. It really wasn't that easy to make a husband and father …
He took a sip of water and calmed himself down, then continued, "Smith must have come to find you because of the heir of the Norman family, but he is not the same as Luther. I guess he just wanted to find you for cooperation and not to harm you."
Mu Lele immediately retorted, "How is that possible? If he didn't think about harming me, how could he have grabbed Grandfather and hurt him again? "
"If he wants to kill you, the safest way is for him to join hands with Luther, not send you a courier under his name."
"After all, Smith is a wanted criminal in China. He has paid a huge price to infiltrate the country!"
Mu Lele felt that his words made a lot of sense. She made up her mind and said, "Xiao, according to what you said, Smith shouldn't be a threat to my life. I'll go see him tomorrow and rescue Grandfather!"
Mu Lele looked at the black box on the table and clenched her hands into fists. She wanted to see her grandfather confirm his safety immediately.
If Grandpa's finger was really cut off by Smith, if Grandpa didn't come to see him tomorrow, maybe he would do something crazy.
"Le Le, don't worry. I'll send someone to scout the situation first. I'll accompany you tomorrow!"
"But …"
"No buts!" Li Xiao replied in a deep voice.1
"I will never allow you to see that dangerous person alone. I will not bet my life on you and my baby!
"Because... I can't afford to gamble! "
"Le Le, if your grandfather was here, he wouldn't have let you take the risk alone."
