    Chapter 239


    Mango was delighted, and she quickly ced her chopsticks down before she went upstairs. Then,


    she chose a dress from the clothes that Queena bought for her to put it on.


    It had to be said that Queena''s fashion sense was very good. The one she wore right now was the


    inkpainting dress, which fitted Mango''s body perfectly, and she looked very elegant.


    Mango looked at herself in the mirror and she found that she looked quite different from her usual


    self.


    After Mango went downstairs, Queena''s eyes brightened and it was clear that Queena found Mango


    looked great in her new clothes.


    "You look very beautiful."


    "Aunt Xiao, you really have good taste. Thank you..."


    Mango did not hold back on her praise towards Queena.


    Then, Queena said with a smile, "Do you know how to drive?"


    "Yeah, I do!"


    "Let''s go then."


    Also, Queena gave Mango a handbag which contained a new phone that she bought for Mango.


    Thus, Mango was very touched by her action.


    "Aunt Xiao, why are you treating me so well?"


    Mango thought that no one else would do this much for her out of pure kindness, so she had to ask


    Queena.


    Queena paused for a moment before she said, "I’m doing all this because you''re connected to the


    Hans family."


    Her admission stunned Mango once again.


    Was Queena indirectly admitting that she knew the Hans family?


    "Aunt Xiao, you and the Hans family..."


    "We''ll talk about itter after we head out."


    Obviously, Queena did not want to talk about it.


    So, Mango sensibly shut her mouth and she followed Queena out of the vi.

    For the past few days, she felt stifled inside the vi. Now as she breathed in the fresh air outside,


    Mango felt energized again.


    Meanwhile, Queena could not help butugh as she watched Mango taking deep breaths.


    "Ah, you''re really just like a child."


    Mango giggled shyly.


    Then she quickly got in the car.


    Mango realized that Queena''s car was very luxurious.


    However, she did notment on it. After she familiarized herself with the car, she started it up.


    "Aunt Xiao, where are we heading?"


    "Let''s go to the Embassy."


    Queena''s words perplexed Mango. "The embassy?"


    "Do you know the way there?"


    Queena nced at Mango as she thought Mango needed directions to the embassy. However,


    Mango shook her head and said, "Yeah, I know the way to the embassy."


    Mango did not ask any further questions, but she felt that Queena was a woman with an intriguing


    background.


    The car drove at a steady speed to the embassy.


    After they arrived, Queena got off the car but Mango did not follow her.


    "What''s wrong?"


    Mango looked at Queena in confusion, as if she did not know what Queena meant.


    "Am I supposed to get out of the car too?"


    "If not, why would I bring you here?"


    Queena felt that Mango was somewhat adorable right now.


    Nevertheless, Mango was a little hesitant to leave the car.


    "Aunt Xiao, I''m an illegal immigrant. It''s pretty bold of you to bring me to the embassy. Aren''t you


    afraid..."


    "What’s there to be afraid of? Hurry up and get out of the car!"


    Queena chuckled lightly before she turned to leave.


    Then, Mango shut down the car and exited it when she realized that Queena was serious about


    Mango following her. Next, she quickly followed behind Queena.


    There was a dedicated greeter to wee Queena when she arrived at the embassy. Hence, it was


    clear that she was someone of high ranking here.


    At that, Mango was a little confused but she did not ask questions. Instead, she just quietly followed


    Queena to an office.


    A woman who looked about the same age as Queena sat in the office. When she saw Queena


    come in, she quickly stood up.


    "Minister Xiao, you''re here? This is..."


    "This woman is a friend of mine. At present, there are some problems with her identification. Do you


    think you can help me to restore her identity?"


    Queena''s words hadpletely astonished Mango.


    Huh? Minister Xiao?


    Wow, Queena was actually a minister!


    What power did a minister at the embassy wield?


    Furthermore, was she going to restore Mango''s identity?


    Honestly, Mango felt that this was all too surreal.


    Meanwhile, the woman nced at Mango when Queena exined Mango''s current situation to her.


    After she heard that, the woman frowned slightly.


    "Minister Xiao, this isn''t some trivial matter. Her identity has already been deleted back in her


    homnd, so how do you expect us to restore her identity from abroad? There is no easy solution


    to this."


    "What if the certificate signed by Mango''s parents was invalid?"


    Queena''s question made the woman shake her head and she said, "That''s impossible. If it was


    invalid, how could her household registration be deleted?"


    "Is there really no other solution to this?"


    Queena''s voice indicated that she was not willing to give up yet.


    The other woman pondered for a while before she said, "There''s another way, but it''ll be difficult."


    "What do you mean by ‘difficult’?’’


    Then, the woman took Queena to another room to discuss the details further. Anyway, the whole


    discussion seemed quite confidential to Mango.


    Nevertheless, Mango could not pinpoint what she currently felt in her heart.


    Unexpectedly, Queena turned out to be a minister and she was a seemingly powerful one at that.


    Right now, she wanted to restore Mango''s identity. Regardless of whether Queena could


    sessfully do that, Mango felt that it was impossible to repay the debt of kindness offered by her.


    The two women spoke inside the room for a long time but Queena''s expression was displeased as


    she walked out. Frankly, Mango knew that her problem was not easy to solve, but she was not


    discouraged.


    Next, Mango smiled and she said, "Forget about it, Aunt Xiao. I''ll figure it out by myselfter." "What


    solution can you possiblye up with?" Queena sighed helplessly.


    It would be a waste of time to stay there any longer, so they left the embassy shortly after, but this


    time it was Queena who drove.


    Queena drove steadily, albeit a little slow. Moreover, she did not speak as she seemed to have


    something on her mind.


    On the other hand, Mango felt that Queena had done too much for her even as they were not too


    familiar with each other. Not only did she save Mango''s life, but Queena had also concerned herself


    with the matter of Mango’s identity. In Mango’s opinion, there was no need to trouble Queena any


    further.


    "Aunt Xiao, everyone has their own destiny. I''m sure that there''ll be a way to fix this, so don''t be so


    troubled."


    However, Queena nced at her without saying anything.


    When they passed by a construction site, Mango saw the workers there had put up banners as if


    they were protesting something.


    "What''s going on over there?"


    Queena seldom drove in this area, but she somehow unconsciously took this route today.


    Mango then nced outside. The words "HY Group" were particrly eye-catching, and she could


    not help but cry out.


    "Aunt Xiao, stop the car!" At that, Queena immediately stopped the car.


    "What''s wrong?"


    "That’s my husband''spany, so this must be the construction site where the ident happened."


    In fact, Mango really wanted to go off the car to have a look, but she could not do that for fear of


    being arrested.


    The whole situation distressed her greatly.


    Then, Queena looked outside and she asked in a low voice, "Is this the site that you mentioned


    before? The one where someone fell to their death?"


    "It should be, because I’ve only heard of it. At the time, everything happened way too quickly and


    everyone was caught off guard. Initially, the Ye family had wanted topensate them financially,


    but they stubbornly refused. Moreover, they used the work of being problematic, and now all the


    suppliers have changed sides and they''re alleging that the incident happened because the HY


    Group wanted to cut costs."


    In truth, Mango did not know much about it either apart from what Thomas told her.


    Likewise, Queena was uncertain about what was going on, nor did she realize the severity of the


    situation.


    Right then, Mango saw Nathaniel.


    He was surrounded by people in the center of the construction site. It was clear that he had lost a


    lot of weight, but he retained his usual se expression. Then, Mango had never realized how


    much she missed Nathaniel until now


    In fact, they had not seen each other for only a few days. However, Mango felt like they had been


    separated for decades instead.


    Mango wanted nothing more than to get out of the car and rescue him when she saw his disheveled


    appearance.


    Meanwhile, Thomas attempted to clear a path through the crowd for Nathaniel, but unfortunately,


    there were too many people surrounding them. Moreover, the workers had contributed greatly to the


    development of the HY Group, so Thomas was reluctant to be too rough towards them.


    Mango was so anxious that she wanted to get off the car, but Queena stopped her.


    "It''s useless for you to go over there now."


    "But..."


    "No buts! Look at the woman opposite him!"


    Then, Queena pointed to the woman who was crying nearby. She was dressed in white as she


    sobbed on the ground at the construction site while the body of the deceased worker was in front of


    her.


    "Is there no justice in this society? The HY Group killed a man for the sake of cutting costs, and now


    you want to buy our silence with money? Where''s the logic in that?"


    The woman sobbed devastatingly, and a few people beside her joined in. Furthermore, it seemed


    like this had been going on for several days. However, Mango spotted camera shes hidden in the


    midst of the crowd. Clearly, the cameras were taking photos of Nathaniel and the HY Group.


    Mango was distressed, but there was nothing she could do about it.


    "Aunt Xiao, what should I do now?"


    "Keep your eye on that woman."


    Queena''s words confused Mango.


    "But she’s just a woman that won’t stop crying."


    "Trust me, when your husband leaves, she''ll stop crying."


    After she said that, Queena leaned back against her chair with a very confident expression on her


    face.


    Mango was a little perplexed, but she did not say anything and she just watched the crying woman.


    From the window, Mango saw Nathaniel''s lips pursed into an increasingly tight line. From that


    action, Mango knew that his patience had reached its limits.


    Then, Thomas tried his best to separate Nathaniel from the crowd before they quickly got into a car.


    Next, they both drove off.


    The woman was still crying, but the sound of crying became much quieter. Soon after that, the


    woman fainted.


    The people around her hurriedly carried her onto a stretcher and they quickly walked toward a car


    parked nearby.


    As the car drove away, Queena started following them in her own car. Mango did not say anything


    and they just followed the woman''s car at a rxed pace.


    After they drove off the highway, the car turned into a secluded road and they soon arrived at an


    abandoned factory.


    The woman got out of the car and she did not look like she had actually fainted at all.


    Next, the woman looked around while the driver got out of the car. Then, he quickly swept her up in


    a hug.


    "Come on, baby, let me kiss you!"


    The driver impatiently tried to kiss the woman, but she dodged him.


    "Ugh, why are you in such a hurry? What do we do now? Didn''t the other party agree to give us one


    million dors if we agreed to file awsuit against the HY Group? Now that we''ve done as they


    said, where the hell is the money?"


    The woman looked impatient.


    Then, the driver halted his movements and he said, "Wasn''t thewsuit rejected?"


    "Why should that be med on us? We''ve already filed thewsuit, so what does that have to do


    with us if the courts reject it? Mr. Li''s body can''t beid out for too long, or it''ll be easy for the


    authorities to find out that there''s something wrong with the body.”


    Obviously, the woman was anxious.


    Meanwhile, Mango and Queena quietly got out of the car and they found a ce to hide. Mango


    was stunned when she heard the woman’s words. Something was wrong with the corpse?


    Did they do something to the body?


    Could it be that Mr. Li did not fall to his death at the construction site? Were there were ulterior


    motives behind this incident?
