"When did you go back to Seoul?"

"A week ago."

"is it?"

Luke took a deep breath: "So, you already knew about Lucy's disappearance a week ago, but you didn't tell me. I'm probably the last one to know about Lucy's disappearance. By the way, if I hadn't found out from someone else, when were you planning to tell me?"

Old Chen fell silent once again.

Lu Ke's tone was icy.

“Speak! Don’t think I can’t do anything just because you’ve run off to Seoul. I’m an FBI agent, a federal citizen. I can handle you. Don’t even mention running off to Seoul. Even if you ran off to Mars, I would still have jurisdiction over you. Long-arm jurisdiction is in effect!”

"Lucy told us not to tell you."

"what?"

Lu Ke raised an eyebrow.

After Old Chen spoke, his tone became more forceful, with a hint of resentment: "It was Lucy who strongly insisted that we not tell you. Even when Mengmeng was born, she was born at home without going to the hospital, just to avoid it being reflected in the medical records."

Lu Ke caught the key words in Lao Chen's words.

"Mengmeng?"

"Your daughter's name is Chen Mengmeng."

"...Surname Chen?"

"Correct."

"..."

Lu Ke originally wanted to ask why he didn't have the surname Lu, but hearing Old Chen's somewhat suppressed anger on the phone, he chose to avoid the topic and thought for a moment: "Was he born last month?"

He and Lucy broke up in early May of last year.

So, based on the timeline, if Lucy was already pregnant in May, then her delivery date should have been last month.

Old Chen sighed.

"No."

"Mengmeng was born on October 30th last year."

Premature birth.

"When Lucy broke up with you, she was already two months pregnant. It was during the time that guy planted the bomb that you fell into a coma. Lucy only found out when she went for a checkup."

"..."

Chapter 349 Lu Ke: "Have you ever heard of a human pig?"

As Old Chen recounted the events, the scene from that time reappeared in Lu Ke's mind.

That was back when Chen Huaxing was still alive.

That was in May of last year.

Lu Ke recalled that it was his first time being discharged from the hospital, and before he had even left the hospital, Chen Huaxing came knocking on his door.

That time, he took another month off to save Lucy. It was during this time that Lucy broke up with him and then resolutely left Los Santos with her parents, claiming that she was going to relax.

Was Lucy already pregnant at that time?

Luke's thoughts raced.

Come back to your senses.

Lu Ke sighed.

"Old Chen, you should have told me."

"What good will it do to tell you? Are you going to break up with your beautiful TV presenter fiancée and marry my Lucy?"

"That won't happen."

"what?"

"Breaking up is impossible."

"..."

Old Chen on the other end of the phone had a fluctuating expression. If Lu Ke hadn't been in front of him, he probably would have slapped him already: "Never mind, Mengmeng's surname is Chen anyway."

Lu Ke raised an eyebrow.

"Let's keep the surname Lu."

"You just said you wouldn't break up with that beautiful TV host."

"Yes."

"Then what do you mean?"

"Old Chen, I am a traditional Easterner."

"Nonsence!"

Old Chen, who was also of Eastern descent, immediately understood Lu Ke's thoughts upon hearing what he said, and spat without hesitation: "What are you dreaming about? It's already dead this early in the morning."

How dare you call yourself a traditional Dongguo person?

You clearly want multiple wives and concubines.

You want my daughter to be a concubine?

dream!

Hearing Old Chen's anger on the other end of the phone, Lu Ke compromised and said, "If you don't like that, I can get myself a Saudi citizenship."

Well known.

It's quite normal for Saudis to have multiple wives and concubines.

Old Chen let out a series of cold laughs.

"You want my daughter to be your concubine? Fine, wait until I die first."

"Old Chen, what you're saying puts me in a difficult position."

"Difficult to handle? Then let's not do it."

Old Chen, now possessed by a crow, said coldly, "Mengmeng is safer with you than with us. You're too eager to improve. You should know that our tradition is moderation."

The mental health clinic is located in Hollywood, which is naturally the source of Lu Ke's wealth over the past two years.

In just two years, Luke rose from an undercover agent to become the renowned FBI Director of Los Angeles, whose name resounds throughout the West Coast.

Old Chen had no idea how Lu Ke, with his Eastern appearance, had managed to rise to his current position in the past two years.

But he knew one thing.

Lu Ke must have offended a lot of people in the past two years.

“The trees are beautiful in the forest, but the wind will destroy them.”

"But the tree may wish to be still, but the wind will not cease."

Luke responded to Old Chen, his eyes gleaming: "Just like now, Lucy has disappeared, and my daughter has been kidnapped by them."

Old Chen was slightly taken aback, then quickly said, "Wait a minute, Mengmeng, who told you that Mengmeng is missing too?"

Luke raised an eyebrow, exchanged a glance with Earl beside him, and then looked at the phone in his hand that was on speakerphone.

"what?"

“Mengmeng was born a month earlier than her due date, so her health hasn’t been very good. She’s been being taken care of at Dr. Bai’s hospital. I just came back from visiting Mengmeng at the hospital yesterday.”

"Not missing?"

"nonsense."

Old Chen said irritably, "If Mengmeng were missing, I wouldn't be in the mood to talk to you like this. Lucy disappeared because of Mengmeng."

Lu Ke frowned, somewhat confused about the current situation.

Earl, who was standing nearby, noticed Luke deep in thought and picked up the conversation, saying to Old Chen on the other end of the phone, "Mr. Chen, you just said that Lucy disappeared because of Mengmeng. Can you tell me what you know about this?"

Old Chen listened to the female voice that had switched.

"who are you?"

“Earl, Director Dane’s assistant.”

"……Hello."

Old Chen realized what was happening, said something to Earl, and then said, "I don't know the specifics. I only know that the day before Lucy disappeared, she sent me a message saying that she had found a way to treat Mengmeng and might disappear for a while, telling me not to worry. After receiving the message, I immediately called her. Lucy told me not to ask any more questions and then hung up. After hanging up, the more I thought about it, the more uneasy I felt, so the next day I rushed back to Seoul, and then..."

When he landed, Lucy had already disappeared.

Because he had received a text message from Lucy beforehand and had also spoken to her on the phone, Old Chen didn't think about calling Luke.

after all……

The day before Lucy disappeared, she specifically instructed Old Chen not to tell Luke during her disappearance.

After finishing his sentence, Old Chen steered the conversation back to what had just happened: "By the way, you just said that Mengmeng was kidnapped. Who told you that?"

Earl opened his mouth, about to speak.

Lu Ke snapped out of his daze and said to Old Chen on the other end of the phone, "Tell me where you are now, your exact location, and I'll arrange for someone to go to that Dr. Bai's hospital."

Old Chen frowned.

Lu Ke didn't give Lao Chen any chance to refute: "Mengmeng is in danger."

Upon hearing this, Old Chen was startled and quickly told Dr. Lu Kebai the hospital's address, then hurriedly said, "I'll go to the hospital right now."

talking.

Old Chen didn't give Lu Ke a chance to speak and hung up the phone directly.

Hearing the dial tone, Lu Ke didn't bother to dial again and dialed another number instead.

Earl spoke up from the side, "Chief, we don't have enough manpower in Seoul."
