If Only You Were Here (2)

Li Si nodded. "Dont worry, Master. Were already on it, but he seems to be in frequent contact with Doris lately. Doriss subordinates are highly alerted, especially Glenn whos not an easy opponent. Ah Bao is worried that he might be alerted, so he kept his distance and observed quietly." "Mmm, just keep them in check. Tell him to report to me if anything odd goes on." Mu Yuchen continued with his breakfast. "Yes, Master. Master Su will be arriving in City Z soon. Im sure things will be fine over there. After all, we did give Qi Feng a huge blow with what happened to Gu Lingsha." Mu Yuchen frowned and glanced at Li Si who instantly kept quiet. Mu Yuchen had always been a careful person. He did not look satisfied even though he had just scored a huge victory. However, he often seemed joyous for the Missus sake. Li Si remained silent as Mu Yuchen finished his breakfast. Soon after that, Mu Yuchen headed to the company, but he paid Zhou Zimo a visit beforehand. Zhou Zimo had nearly recovered. He was discussing some seemingly serious matter with Secretary Xu Yayan but he ordered the latter to leave when he saw Mu Yuchen arrive. Mu Yuchen grabbed two glasses of water and handed one to him. He took a sip, then Zhou ZImo asked, "Has Su Chen gone back?" "On a flight last night. He should be home by now." Zhou Zimo nodded. "Great, thats better than being stuck here." "What plans do you have in mind? The arrangements are done. Uncle Zhou is worried sick. Its about time now since weve gathered the evidence. Its not difficult to bail you out early." Mu Yuchen looked at Zhou Zimo who was lazing around on the sofa. "Im not in a hurry as long as things are doing well on my parents end. Look at me, I finally have several days of peaceful bliss. I think Ive gained some weight too." Zhou Zimo laughed. "Just do it when you think the time is right. Im fine with anything." "Gu Lingshas been released. Doriss next step should be thinking about how to deal with Gu Qiwu. I doubt they have the time to meddle with things over here. Ill be leaving New York tomorrow, but Ah Bo will stay. Hopefully, they let their guard down and we can get some evidence." Mu Yuchen turned towards Zhou Zimo. "Will you be alright?" "Dont worry. No problem. Go and do your stuff." "Ive finished the arrangements, but you should be careful in who you trust in the future. Dont let the others know too much about top-secret matters, or this might happen again. Doris might just be using this to distract us, but we still have to deal with this personally." As Mu Yuchen took a deep breath, he sounded a little helpless. "Dont worry. Ill make sure to pay it back! Doris thinks shes really brilliant, but she just exposed herself! She was probably worried after getting screwed over by Gu Qiwu. She thought he couldnt deal with her anymore if you werent there! Luckily, you reacted quickly and trapped Gu Lingsha in the police station. Who knows what could have happened if you didnt do that?" "Get Ah Bo to help you when things settle down. Ill head back right away after Im done. Well be waiting for you to come back." "Alright, by the way, Qi Lei" Mu Yuchens phone started ringing before Zhou Zimo could finish his sentence. He took out his phone and pressed on the answer button. "Xiaye?" His voice reached the other end quickly. Night had just fallen in City Z at the moment. Xi Xiaye seemed worried as she gave Mu Yuchen a call. She did not expect the call to go through or that her man would answer so quickly. She quickly complained, "Where did you go? I called you so many times and couldnt reach you at all!" "I went out for a little and couldnt bring my phone with me, so I left it with Zimo. I planned to call you back later. Whats the matter? You dont sound alright." Mu Yuchen sensed her worried tone. Xi Xiaye took a deep breath. "Mr. Mu, theres something wrong over here. Im worried." "Whats the matter?" Mu Yuchen took a sip of water as he asked. Frowning, she did not sound as relaxed as he was. "Qi Lei has gone missing for nearly a whole day now. We promised to meet at Fuhua to discuss something today. He also had an appointment with Vice President Liu as well, but he just didnt show up in either place. I told VP Liu to investigate it. Qi Lei shouldve been back in City Z by yesterday, but the flight information revealed that Qi Lei and Yang Shengs names werent registered. CEO Li confirmed with us that Qi Lei left City B yesterday. He was the one who sent him off. We have contacted everyone possible, but we cant find Qi Lei at all. Im worried that something has happened to him." "You know that Qi Lei hasnt been doing too well lately. Im worried that" Xi Xiaye finished her report to Mu Yuchen. Mu Yuchen frowned after he listened to her. Qi Lei was missing? He was deep in thought for a moment. Then, he put the glass of water down and asked, "Have you reported this to the police?" "Not yet. Im worried that somethings not right, so I wanted to tell you first. I cant reach Su Chen as well. What should I do now? Im feeling uneasy."
