If Only You Were Here (3)

When Xi Xiaye sounded uneasy, Mu Yuchen frowned. Moments later, he said, "Dont panic. Ah Mo is in City B right now. Ill get him to find out what happened. Dont let anyone else know first. Well handle it once we find out what happened." "I think so too. Im not sure if Qi Qiming already knows, but I bet that he doesnt. By the way, I have something else to tell you. Gu Qiwu came to visit me some time ago about Lingshi. He said" Xi Xiaye did not forget to tell him about that since she needed to consult him on what to do. Mu Yuchen already figured out what Gu Qiwu was considering. He put on a cold smile. "Hes just trying to use you to give me a reminder. Just ignore him." Gu Qiwu was trying to use Xi Xiaye to give Mu Yuchen a nudge, but if he had the time to do that, he could be excluded from suspicion of having anything to do with Qi Leis disappearance. After all, there was no benefit for him to harm Qi Lei. "Mmm, Ah Shi seems to have some ideas of her own though Im not so sure, and I suppose you should give her a call. Do find out what happened to Qi Lei. Im afraid that I dont have the capacity to work on that right now." Xi Xiaye closed her eyes as she said, "Gu Lingsha was released too. I heard that Doris was behind it." "Dont worry about it. Im here. Hows our son?" Mu Yuchen did not want her to get involved. "Just had dinner. Sis Wangs bathing him right now. When are you coming back? Its been so long!" "Soon, dont worry." "Mmm, take care of yourself. Let me know if you find anything. Im feeling really uneasy." Mu Yuchen seemed secretive when he hung up. His eyes appeared cold as well. "Whats wrong? Did something happen?" Zhou Zimo asked. "Something mightve happened. Qi Leis missing." Mu Yuchens eyes darkened. It was hard not to notice the chilly aura coming from him. He had overlooked Qi Lei. Although he had considered that something like this might have happened "What? Qi Leis missing?" Shocked, Zhou Zimo frowned as well. "Who did it? Is this a trap?" Mu Yuchen pursed his lips and did not say anything. "Qi Feng? He seems to be the obvious answer. However, I suppose theres no point guessing who did it right now. We need to find him first, or maybe its just a misunderstanding." "Have some rest. Ill look into whats happening." Mu Yuchen then got up and walked towards the door. "Dont worry too much about it. Qi Lei is a smart guy. He might be able to get something out of this even!" Zhou Zimo tried to comfort him, but Mu Yuchen waved his hand and left the room. The situation seemed dire, so Mu Yuchen went straight to the company after leaving the hospital. Li Si noticed that Mu Yuchens expression was grim throughout the whole trip. "Master, maybe we could ask Ah Mo to investigate. Hes in City B right now and it wont be difficult for him to find out." At that suggestion, Mu Yuchen grabbed his phone and called Ah Mo. The call went through, but no one picked up. As his eyes darkened, he dialed the number again, but it ended up the same! Suddenly, a thought flashed across Mu Yuchens mind. He quickly called the branch office and got word that Ah Mo had returned to City B yesterday! Mu Yuchen squinted his eyes as he kept his phone. Li Si was a little terrified when he noticed Mu Yuchens expression, so he asked carefully, "Master? Whats the matter?" "Check Ah Mos whereabouts in the last few days quickly! Find out if he met with Qi Lei, and what happened with CEO Li. Who else knows that both Ah Mo and Qi Lei went to City B, and why would they head to City B at the same time?!" Mu Yuchen was getting more and more worried. It seems like not only had Qi Lei gone missing, but Ah Mo was missing as well! "Master, do you mean thatAh Mos missing?" Li Sis eyes widened as he asked Mu Yuchen. "Thats impossible. Ah Mo is skilled and hes quick-witted. He wouldnt just go missing!" Mu Yuchen clenched his phone tightly and tried to suppress his uneasiness. "This is worse than I thought." Having worked alongside him for a very long time, Mu Yuchen knew Ah Mos careful ways very well. All these coincidences pointed to the fact that they were not flukes. "Master" Li Si could sense the severity of the issue. "Just do what I said. Delay the schedule for today and find out whats happened. We might have to head over to City B right away." "Yes, Master! Things will be really complicated if your guess is correct. Could it be Gu Qiwu? Or is it Qi Feng?" Li Si threw out some guesses. Mu Yuchens eyes darkened. "I dont want to make any guesses now, but if thats really what has happened, Ill make sure they know theyve messed with the wrong person." "Yes, Master! Ill get on it right away!" Li Si quickly left the room. Mu Yuchen leaned back in the chair after Li Si left. He felt a sudden headache come on, so he closed his eyes for some rest and fell asleep soon after that. He was exhausted from all the work he had to do lately, but there was no time for him to take a breather. He thought that things would ease up a little After some time, his phone vibrated, so he took a glance at it. It was a voice note from Xi Xiaye.
