"Xue'er has been gone for so long and still hasn't returned; we should call the police," Ning Qi, worried and unable to resist, snatched up her cellphone to report the missing Meng Xue'er as soon as Lin Fei returned to his rented apartment in Zhonghai.
"There's no need; just wait," Lin Fei casually took Ning Qi's phone from her, stopping her intention to call the police.
Getting the police's assistance to find Meng Xue'er was indeed a feasible solution. However, Meng Xue'er had not been missing for twenty-four hours yet. The police would not open a case for a disappearance that had not reached twenty-four hours. Even if Lin Fei approached Chen Qi, that violent policewoman, for help, it would most likely be to no avail.
Not to mention whether Chen Qi would be generous enough to help him, Lin Fei, look for another woman, even if that violent policewoman Chen Qi really was willing to help, she would obviously have a hard time finding Meng Xue'er quickly.
