Chapter 869 Jia Jia
On the other side, Chen Xincheng's car stopped on the side of the road, and a well-dressed woman with a sad face came over. It was his ex-wife Shang Zhen.

He rolled down the window and waved, and Shang Zhen got in the car immediately.

Without waiting for her to sit down, Chen Xincheng asked anxiously, "Why did you call me here so urgently?"

Before Shang Zhen could say anything, he started wiping away his tears.

Chen Xincheng became even more anxious when he saw this: "Stop crying and tell me, what happened to Jiajia?"

Shang Zhen said with resentment: "You are questioning me. Have you fulfilled your responsibilities as a father over the years?"

"We can get a divorce and you can ignore me, but you should at least care about Jia Jia a little more, right?"

Chen Xincheng frowned, "Are you going to settle the old scores again? What's the point of calling me out in the middle of the night to talk about those old things? Just tell me what happened to Jia Jia?"

Shang Zhen said with lifeless eyes:
"I was studying painting well before. Other people's fathers who studied painting with her all used money to support their children and found good painters to teach them step by step."

"I can't afford a good painter, but I can afford a private tutor. I hired one for her, but she suddenly said she didn't want to learn after just a few lessons, and she insisted that I return all my money!"

Chen Xincheng frowned and asked, "Why?"

Shang Zhen was still crying and complaining, "How should I know? You know how rebellious your daughter is."

Chen Xincheng said with some concern: "I saw her on the Jiefang Road overpass a few days ago. She was with a strange man. Her face was covered in garish makeup. She ran away when she saw me. I was just about to ask you what happened?"

Shang Zhen said helplessly: "I gave her a lot of money, but she just didn't want it, saying that she wanted to make money to support herself!"

"Jia Jia has grown up and has self-esteem. She doesn't want to use your money!" Chen Xincheng heard this and said with some dissatisfaction:

"Although I'm not as rich as you, I'm her biological father after all. Although I may not be able to afford a private tutor for her, I can definitely sell everything I have to enroll her in a tutoring class!"

"Sell your pots and pans for iron?" Shang Zhen said disdainfully, "How many pots do you have? How many pieces of iron can you sell?"

"That's my business!" Chen Xincheng said impatiently, "Why are you bringing it back to me? Didn't Jia Jia say what she was going to do?"

Shang Zhen found it difficult to speak, so he could only whisper vaguely: "She said she was going to help create atmosphere!"

Hearing that his daughter was going to be the atmosphere group, Chen Xincheng was stunned and asked in confusion: "What~, what did you say to help?"

Shang Zhen lowered his head and explained in a low voice: "I just went to the bar to accompany someone drinking!"

Chen Xincheng was stunned for a moment when he heard this. When he reacted, his eyes widened and he said angrily:

"Are you crazy? Jiajia goes to the bar to serve drinks! Is this how you act as a mother? Are you still her real mother? Can you make that kind of money?"

Shang Zhen also shed tears and said aggrievedly: "What can I do? I cried and scolded her, but she just kept insisting on going to the bar~!"

Chen Xincheng's eyes were red and his face was ferocious. He shouted angrily without waiting for Shang Zhen to move her wrist and interrupt her:
"Which bar did Jia Jia go to?"

Shang Zhen thought for a moment and said, "It's the bar in the city center, it seems to be called Coco!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Xincheng said, "Okay, let's stop here today. I'm going to find my daughter!"

As he said this, he stepped on the accelerator and the car roared out.

……

Inside the Coco Bar, Jia Jia, wearing heavy makeup, stood there at a loss as she looked at the chaotic scene in front of her.

A mommy saw Jia Jia sitting at the bar, smiled, and then walked up to her and said,
"Jia Jia, what are you doing sitting here? You're just drinking with the guests and not doing anything else!"

"I'm telling you!" Mommy pointed at another table and said, "That big brother is very rich. Please coax him tonight. The tip will be huge~!"

As he said that, he went to greet the rich brother and wanted to introduce Jia Jia to him.

Jia Jia hesitated and stood there hesitantly. At this time, Chen Xincheng suddenly came in front of her.

Chen Xincheng looked his daughter up and down in her gorgeous attire, then pulled him aside and said:
"Come on, come on, come back with me!" Then he pulled Jia Jia out!

When Jia Jia saw that it was her father, she struggled to shake off Chen Xincheng's hand and shouted:
"What are you doing? Let me go. Who told you to catch me? I'm at work!"

Chen Xincheng said angrily: "What kind of job do you work for? What kind of job do you work for in this messy place? Nonsense!"

The father and daughter were arguing when the bar's mom caught up with them, grabbed Jia Jia with one hand and pulled her back, glaring at Chen Xincheng and saying:
"Hey, what are you doing? We don't allow snatching people away in our bar! She's already been reserved by someone else."

"What do you want to order? Who ordered it?" Chen Xincheng looked grim, staring at the woman in front of him and yelling, "Get out of the way!"

Mommy was startled and said in a panic, "You~, you think you are right to rob people? How dare you glare at me! Security, where is the security?"

Seeing that the woman dared to call security, Chen Xincheng immediately yelled: "Do you know what I do?"

"Jia Jia, let's go!"

Looking at his aura, Mommy was shocked. Looking at the furious Chen Xincheng and Jia Jia who lowered her head and kept silent, she suddenly realized that this might not be Jia Jia's father.

Thinking of this, Mommy naturally didn't dare to make a big deal out of it, so she let Chen Xincheng pull Jia Jia out of the bar.

As soon as she walked out of the bar, Jia Jia shook off Chen Xincheng's hand and said:

"What are you doing? My business has nothing to do with you!"

Chen Xincheng was not willing to let go and held Jiajia again: "Jiajia, how could you do this! How did you become like this?"

Jia Jia shook Chen Xincheng's hand away with force again and shouted, "No matter what I become, it's my business and has nothing to do with you. Don't bother me!"

Chen Xincheng said sadly: "Jia Jia, I am your father! How can it have nothing to do with me? Why did you come here to find a job? Is this what a decent girl does? You must come with me today!"

Jia Jia's eyes turned red, she stared at Chen Xincheng and said:
"Now you remember that you are my father? What about before? Where were you? What have you done for me? Where were you when I felt the most wronged and scared?"

"Where were you when I couldn't sleep all night and cried under the covers?"

"Back then, when I begged you not to divorce, why didn't you think about me?"

"Now you think I've brought shame upon you, so you come here and act like a father to discipline me? It's too late!" He turned around and wanted to go into the bar.

Chen Xincheng rushed over, stopped Jia Jia and begged:

"I'm sorry, Jiajia, listen to me, it's my fault, it's my fault, if you have any complaints, tell me, I only have you as my daughter, I will accept any beatings or scoldings!"

"But if you come to work in a place like this, the rest of your life, or even your entire life, will be ruined!"

"You~, don't you love painting? Dad supports you. You can go to Beijing to study, or even study abroad. Dad will support you even if he has to beg for food, even if he has to sell his kidneys, kidneys, or liver, okay?"

Jia Jia once again shook his hand away, looked at him fiercely and said, "No need, I'm grown up now! I don't need any of you!"

"Yes, I want to learn painting, but I can make money on my own. Please leave. It's not good for you, Officer Chen, to be in a place like this!"

Just as he was about to walk in, Chen Xincheng yelled, “Stop!”

Jia Jia was also stunned by the shout.

Chen Xincheng pulled over a trash can and said with a sad face:
"Jia Jia, if you dare to take another step inside, do you believe that I dare to smash this store? Dad is a man of his words!" Jia Jia turned around and looked at Chen Xincheng expressionlessly.

"Dad, do you think I don't know that this is not a place for decent girls? But do I have a choice? Tell me, do I have a home? I don't!" With that, Jia Jia turned around and ran away.

Chen Xincheng watched Jia Jia leave and was nailed to the spot by her words.

······
Here, Li Dawei went to chase Chen Xincheng, but unfortunately Chen Xincheng ran too fast and he couldn't catch up.

After driving on the road for a while, Li Dawei still didn't see Chen Xincheng and no one answered the phone. He became anxious and called Lin Hao again.

"Captain Lin, I didn't catch up with my master. No one answered the phone. How can I find him?"

Lin Hao thought for a moment and said, "Don't panic. I'll send you the address of his ex-wife's home. The only people who can make your master panic are his ex-wife and daughter."

"I guess he met his ex-wife today. He should know where your master is going."

Upon hearing this, Li Dawei immediately said, "Okay, I'll go find it right away!"

Later, Li Dawei received a message from Lin Hao:

"This is the address of your master's ex-wife's home. Go ask her there. Don't forget to change into casual clothes!"

With the address, everything became easy. Li Dawei came to the door of Shang Zhen's villa and rang the doorbell.

A middle-aged woman who looked like a maid opened the door, and Li Dawei smiled and said, "Auntie Shang?"

The maid looked Li Dawei up and down, then said in authentic Shanghainese: "Looking for the wife, wait a moment!"

Li Dawei could only stand there and wait. After a while, the maid opened the door and welcomed Li Dawei in.

Looking at the exquisite decoration and high-end furniture, I couldn't help but curl my lips.

Shang Zhen came over, his eyes red, and he lowered his head slightly: "Who are you?"

Li Dawei introduced himself:

"Auntie Shang, I'm a police officer from Balihe Police Station. Chen Xincheng is my master. We haven't been able to contact him. I want to ask you where he went?"

Shang Zhen subconsciously glanced at the inner room, and then asked nervously:

"He's not at home! Didn't your master go to find Jia Jia?"

"Master went to look for Jiajia?" Li Dawei was surprised and said, "But my master has lost contact now! We can't get in touch with him!"

Shang Zhen said confidently: "Yes!"

Li Dawei asked, "Auntie, isn't sister Jiajia back either?"

Shang Zhen shook his head anxiously and said, "She didn't come back. I thought Jia Jia was with your master!"

The voice of Shang Zhen's current husband, Mr. Yu, came: "Who is it?"

"I'm here to see Jiajia!" Shang Zhen looked back, then turned to Li Dawei and whispered:

"You go first, I can't talk to you more now!"

Seeing that Shang Zhen was about to close the door, Li Dawei quickly held it with his hand and said:
"Auntie Shang, I have an urgent mission here, I must contact my master~!"

Shang Zhen thought for a moment and said, "Jia Jia should be at the COCO Bar in the city center. Your master went to look for her, so he should be there too!"

After saying this, Shang Zhen slammed the door shut. Li Dawei sighed and drove towards the city center.

Just halfway through the journey, Chen Xincheng's phone, which had been unreachable, was connected. Li Dawei quickly asked:

"Master, where are you!"

Chen Xincheng's unclear voice came from the other side, as if he was drunk. Li Dawei carefully distinguished:

"What? Bangpeng Street~!"

"Okay, okay, just sit there and don't move, I'll be right over!"

A few minutes later, when Li Dawei found Chen Xincheng, he was already drunk and lying on the table unconscious.

Seeing how sad he was, it seemed particularly desolate.

Li Dawei scanned the code to pay the bill, helped Chen Xincheng into his car, and then called Lin Hao to report the situation.

Lin Hao, who was originally on duty for Chen Xincheng, wanted to go to the bar himself to persuade Jia Jia.

I just thought that if Jia Jia was attracted to me and something happened, it would be difficult to deal with, and I would feel a little sorry for Chen Xincheng.

And this matter really needs Li Dawei to be done. Only this little sun can warm Jia Jia's exhausted heart.

So Lin Hao instructed Li Dawei:
"Well, you send your master back to us, and then let Zhao Jiwei and Yang Shu take care of him."

"After I send your master back, I'll give you a photo of Jia Jia. Go to the bar right away and don't let anything happen to Jia Jia!"

"Okay, I got it!" Li Dawei then sent Chen Xincheng home, handed him over to Zhao Jiwei and the other man to take care of, and then hurried to COCO Bar.

Late at night is when the COCO Bar is bustling. The music inside is deafening, the lights are dim, and in every shadowy corner, there are men and women hugging each other.

Li Dawei walked into the bar and looked at the chaotic scene in front of him. He held his cell phone with Jia Jia's photo on it in one hand and looked everywhere for it.

Suddenly, Li Dawei saw a girl who looked very similar to Jia Jia, sitting in the corner blankly with a lonely look on her face, so he immediately walked over.

Mommy also walked up to Jiajia at this time and said sarcastically: "Hey, are you here to drink? I paid you to do this, what? Hurry up, there are guests over there!"

Jia Jia was startled and lowered her head without saying anything.

Li Dawei hurried over, stood in front of her and said, "Sorry, girl, I have a date with her!"

"You made a date?" Mommy looked him over, then said with a smile that only a brothel owner could have:
"Oh handsome guy, you have such good taste! This is the girl we just got here! But there's an extra charge for ordering this table separately!"

Li Dawei nodded and said, "I know, go ahead."

Mommy looked at him strangely, then smiled and said meaningfully:
"Okay, here's my business card. You can call me if you need anything!" He then went to greet other guests.

After Mommy left, Jia Jia turned around, looked at Li Dawei strangely and asked, "Who are you?"

Li Dawei said directly: "You are Jiajia, right? I am your father's apprentice, my name is Li Dawei!"

When she heard that it was related to her father, Jia Jia's face changed and she stood up and was about to leave.

Li Dawei was prepared and pulled her back to sit.

Jia Jia struggled hard and said, "What are you doing? If you do this again, I will call for help!"
