Sweet Wife in My Arms - Chapter 251
Chapter 251: His Laptop’s Disappeared
He was a hefty fellow but he was a kind-hearted person. However, women always judge people by appearances and they turn up their noses at the inner beauty of Lei Qingyi.
He felt like he had stumbled over something, then he looked down and found his shoelace had come loose.
He set his bag on the flower bed. He crouched down to tie his shoelace and his phone rang at the time.
He reached out his phone and place it next to his ear. He talked on the phone and walked along, but he forgot to take his laptop which he had put on the flower bed.
Yi Ling was walking along with a big bag of food. She saw there was a flower bed which she could put things on and then, she quickly ran over. She was so tired that she set the bag down and thought about what they would eat tonight.
She didn’t eat much of the food that Yan Huan made last time. After all, Mr. Backing had finished most of it and thus, she went out to buy the food that she wanted to eat today and asked Yan Huan to make for her.
She was getting more excited as she thought she would have all of the dishes alone. After a break, she carried her things and she found a black bag on the flower bed.
Who has lost the bag? She took the bag and picked it up. The bag was heavy and hard. She looked around for the person who had lost it, but no one appeared on this cold day.
She opened the bag. No wonder the bag is so heavy. It is a laptop. She went through the bag but couldn’t find any contact number.
“What about this?” She carried the bag with a laptop inside. What if someone found this but didn’t return to its owner?
At least, she would return it to its owner. Though she didn’t have much money, she had good character.
She spent her dinner time to wait for the owner, but there was nobody coming over to look for it after waiting for a long time. It was growing dark at the time, so she had to carry both the food and laptop to go home.
“What is this?” Yan Huan pointed at the black bag in Yi Ling’s hand.
“Nothing.” Yi Ling threw the bag on the sofa, “I found it when I was on my way back. Let’s wait and see whether someone is looking for it. We’ll think of something later if there isn’t anyone who will take it back.” She hadn’t had time to think about what to do with the computer yet. She was hungry and wanted to eat.
She hastened to carry the food into the kitchen, then she urged Yan Huan to make food and pushed her into the kitchen.
Yan Huan took a glance at the black bag but she didn’t take it to heart. After all, the bag was nothing special. As for Yi Ling, she sat on the sofa and waited for her meal. But the bag had taken up the greater part of the sofa and thus, she threw it to the corner. The corner was right above Little Bean’s territory, so Little Bean treated it as her bed.
Lei Qingyi felt something was missing when he arrived at home. What is it? Touching his head, he simply couldn’t remember. He went to bed after he took a bath without thinking much of it. He sat up suddenly in the next morning.
He stunned for a moment and then he shouted, “Oh no! I have lost my laptop!”
He grabbed his hair and put on his clothes quickly without washing his face and brushing his teeth. He ran over to the place that he had lost his laptop. He knew quite well that he might not find it but he still rushed to the place immediately.
When he arrived, his laptop was gone as expected.
He plopped down on the flower bed with his heart thumping in the chest, I’m done.
It wasn’t because of how valuable the laptop was. Actually, he wasn’t distressed even he lost ten of it. But the main thing was there were some confidential documents inside the laptop and this was no joke if someone cracked the files.
He had a special occupation like Lu Yi. Lu Yi was a prosecutor, while he was the director of Sea City’s National Security Department who was in charge of Sea City’s entire security system. He was so careless that he went out with that laptop and lost it.
Touching his pocket, he realized he didn’t bring his phone with him. At the moment, a few street cleaners were coming over to sweep the road. They wore an odd look when they saw him.
Lei Qingyi couldn’t figure it out. He did look like a bear but he wasn’t that ugly actually. Though he wasn’t as handsome as Lu Yi, he had regular features and beautiful eyes. Why did they look at him strangely? He felt embarrassed by all the looks, but his eyes twitched when he lowered his head and saw his clothes.
He had worn his clothes inside out with plastic slippers on his feet. He covered his face and quickly ran back to his house while there were not many people on the street.
But what should he do since he lost his laptop?
“You lost it?” Lu Yi was neatly dressed and ready to go out, but he received a call from Lei Qingyi.
“Yea, I’ve lost it.” Lei Qingyi paced up and down the room barefoot, he was restless with anxiety, “I just tied my shoelace and picked up a call, but then I totally forgot about it.”
“Have you looked for it?” Lu Yi knew that Lei Qingyi had a laptop with a lot of important documents inside. He also knew that Lei Qingyi had lost that laptop, or else he wouldn’t be so agitated.
“I did.” Lei Qingyi grabbed his hair again and plucked a few strands out.
“I went out early in the morning but I couldn’t find it.”
“Early in the morning?” Lu Yi squinted his eyes slightly. He found a clue in his words.
“You lost it yesterday but you looked for it this morning?”
“Yes.” Lei Qingyi banged his head against the wall, “What should I do now? I can’t lose the documents inside the laptop but also cannot look for it with great fanfare.”
“Since you lost it yesterday, of course, you couldn’t find it today.” Lu Yi opened the door and carried his briefcase under his arm, “Don’t worry, I’ll think of a way to find the notebook.”
He hung up the phone, lifted his wrist and took a look at the time. It is half-past seven now, he lost it yesterday but only found out this morning. Even a fool can guess the possibility to retrieve the thing.
It is a trifling matter to lose the laptop, but the documents inside are very important.
He was afraid that the person who got the laptop would modify the system. Either they would lose the documents or someone had seen it.
