Chapter 367 The Strange Woman Who Took Your Sister
Upon entering Ren'ai Confinement Center, people frequently greeted Ye Lan.

"Hello, Mr. Lan."

"President Lan."

"..."

Seeing this, Meng Xiaokai asked curiously, "Miss Ye, are you the owner of this postpartum care center?"

"No." Ye Lan replied coldly.

She led Meng Xiaokai upstairs to a quiet room filled with cribs.

There was a baby in almost every bed.

Ye Lan crossed her arms and said calmly, "These are all high-quality items. See if any of them catch your eye."

"Why are they so quiet?" Meng Xiaokai frowned slightly, sensing something was off. "This is a bit strange."

So many babies, yet they were all so quiet, not a single one was crying.

Something is wrong, so wrong.

Ye Lan scoffed, as if mocking his ignorance, "What's the big deal? Just give him some sleeping pills."

Meng Xiaokai: "..."

He clenched his fists suddenly, cursing inwardly: These beasts!

"Do the parents know about this?" Meng Xiaokai asked.

Ye Lan was speechless for a moment. "What would happen if the parents found out? They would definitely do it in secret."

Meng Xiaokai feigned indifference and simply said "Oh".

He moved around the room, glancing occasionally at the baby who was forced to sleep.

"Miss Ye, if I like this, can I just take it with me?" Meng Xiaokai looked up at her.

Ye Lan: "That won't do. The baby can't be lost in the postpartum care center."

Meng Xiaokai: "Then what should we do?"

"Just tell me which one you like," Ye Lan said impatiently. "We'll take care of the rest."

"Miss Ye, you're so beautiful, but your temper isn't so great," Meng Xiaokai joked.

Ye Lan scoffed, "What's it to you? Hurry up and choose, I'm busy."

"I'm busy too, okay?" Meng Xiaokai pretended to complain. "You guys gave me a bunch of sleeping people to choose from. I don't even know if they have single or double eyelids when they open their eyes. I have to pick one that looks like me, so as not to arouse the old man's suspicion."

Ye Lan: "..."

Meng Xiaokai raised his hand and stroked his chin. "How about this, I'll close my eyes, and Miss Ye, you help me pick someone who looks like me."

"Okay," Ye Lan nodded in agreement.

She randomly pointed to one, "That one, it looks a lot like you."

"Okay then." Meng Xiaokai glanced in the direction she pointed. "This one then. When can I have it?"

Ye Lan said calmly, "Let's talk outside."

The two left Renai Maternity Center and returned to the coffee shop across the street.

Ye Lan asked him, "When do you want it?"

Meng Xiaokai laughed and said, "Of course, the sooner the better."

Ye Lan tapped a few times on her phone, "Next Friday, you pay first and then we'll deliver the goods."

“Okay.” Meng Xiaokai nodded.

Before leaving, he exclaimed, "My phone's dead!"

Ye Lan ignored him and walked toward the exit on her own.

"Miss Ye, may I borrow your phone to make a call?" Meng Xiaokai stepped forward and stopped her. "I need to contact my driver to come pick me up."

"It's inconvenient," Ye Lan refused him.

"How about this, I'll read out the number, and you dial it for me?"

Ye Lan hesitated for a few seconds, then nodded, "Alright, you're such a hassle. What's your number?"

"185..." Just as Ye Lan finished entering the number and dialed the phone, Meng Xiaokai took advantage of her inattention, snatched her phone, and ran out of the coffee shop.

Ye Lan's expression changed, her eyes instantly turning sharp, and she quickly chased after him, shouting, "Stop! Give me back my phone!"

Meng Xiaokai slowed down and felt a hand grip his shoulder from behind.

"Give me back my phone," Ye Lan said in a deep voice.

Meng Xiaokai turned around and said with a grin, "Miss Ye, don't be so serious, I was just joking with you."

After saying that, he handed her his phone.

"Is it fun?" Ye Lan's face turned ashen as she reached for her phone.

The moment her fingers touched the phone, she felt a sudden chill on her wrist as a silver handcuff was placed on her wrist.

Her pupils contracted sharply, and she abruptly raised her head.

Xiao Xu's expression was cold and stern as he said, enunciating each word clearly, "Ye Lan, you are under arrest."

"You..." Ye Lan looked at Meng Xiaokai in disbelief, "You're a police officer?"

"You're a beast." Meng Xiaokai said coldly.

Ye Lan tried to take the phone back from him, but Meng Xiaokai simply put it into the evidence bag.

Ye Lan sensed something was wrong as she was being pushed into the police car, but her phone was being controlled, so she had no way to warn anyone else.

Sitting in the police station's interrogation room, Ye Lan deeply regretted not refusing Liao Lijiao back then.

"Xiao Xu." Jiang Yuan approached Xiao Xu's booth, put her hand on her shoulder, and asked with a smile, "Want some milk tea?"

Xiao Xu snapped out of her daze, met that warm smile, and smiled back: "Okay, I'll treat you to a drink."

"Okay." Jiang Yuan nodded, and the two left side by side.

Meng Xiaokai watched the two figures walk away, then stroked his chin. "It seems like Xiao Xu and Jiang Yuan are hiding something from us."

Chen Ziqi also rubbed his chin, imitating him, "I wonder if they'll bring me a taro pearl milk tea with less ice and 30% sugar later."

He Lewei: "Why is a grown man like you drinking less ice?"

Chen Ziqi: "I don't like it too cold."

Meng Xiaokai: "...Fine, is that the point?"

Jiang Yuan and Xiao Xu were waiting at the traffic light at the intersection, with 34 seconds left.

"Xiao Xu, what's wrong?" Jiang Yuan asked, tilting her head.

Since arresting Ye Lan, Xiao Xu has been preoccupied and has been sitting in a daze in his booth.

"Yuan Yuan." Xiao Xu met her concerned gaze and felt a warmth in her heart. She said softly, "I think Ye Lan looks very familiar."

“Looks familiar…” Jiang Yuan blinked, then quickly realized, “Doesn’t she look like the strange woman who took your sister away?”

Xiao Xu nodded slowly.

The red light had turned green, but the two people didn't move.

Xiao Xu frowned and pondered, "I was eight years old then, and my sister was three. Sixteen years have passed, but I will never forget that face."

"But she looks too young. That woman was at least in her twenties back then, and this Ye Lan looks like she's only in her thirties."

“Let’s go back and check her records.” Jiang Yuan led her back. “Although sixteen years have passed, Ye Lan has heavy traces of cosmetic surgery on her face. She must be quite old in reality.”

Seeing them, Meng Xiaokai asked curiously, "Weren't you going to buy milk tea? Why are you back so soon?"

"We'll buy it later," Jiang Yuan said. "Let's check Ye Lan's identity information."

"Okay." Meng Xiaokai nodded, while operating the computer.

Ye Lan's identity information was quickly displayed on the screen, with her age listed as 45 years old.

Jiang Yuan narrowed her eyes slightly. "Sixteen years ago, Ye Lan was twenty-nine years old."

"Twenty-nine years old..." Xiao Xu murmured, "Then it's very likely to be her!"

Jiang Yuan: "Xiao Kai, take a look at Ye Lan's old ID photo."

"Okay." Meng Xiaokai immediately took action.
