After that, the mood of the unable to find an outlet, Helian Qingyu regardless of the alcohol to drink very fierce. Ignoring Helian Qing's interception, he ordered bottle after bottle of wine, and finally drank a few bottles of brandy.
Only after seeing He Qingyu completely drunk on the dining table did he take out his phone. He had already sent a message to Ji Yun, who had told him not to come back, to call. He said that he had a very good way to help her get rid of the obstructions.
Although Ji Yun felt that He Qingyu's change in attitude was suspicious, he still believed her.
Zhou Xuanqing, who had been humiliated by Ji Yun until he returned to his villa, was sitting alone on the stairs.
She stared at the marble floor, her mind in a state of confusion, as if she had been stabbed.
He sat there for a long time. Until late at night, she had yet to see He Qingyu return.
The unhappiness in his heart couldn't help but grow greater and greater.
The villa was huge, with only her inside and outside. At this moment, she was willing to have He Qingyu stand in front of her and scold her and mock her, but she also didn't want to be left alone in such a quiet place.
On a night like this, the silence was truly terrible.
But in the end, the person he wanted to wait for still hadn't returned …
When the drunk He Qingyu woke up, he found himself lying on the bed in the He family courtyard. He lifted his hand to pick his hair and got out of bed. Because he had drunk too much last night, he could not help but feel a bit uncomfortable.
Walking out of his room, he went downstairs to find his older brother, He Qingru, sitting on the sofa. In his hands was the newspaper he had delivered this morning, and he was currently reading it carefully.
This scene seemed very comfortable and at ease at home.
He Qingyu put his hand in his pocket and walked to the opposite side to sit down. He politely said, ”I drank too much last night. Many thanks to big brother for bringing me back.”
When he found the time to look up from the newspaper, He Qing Yi looked over and joked, ”The one sending you back is my assistant, I don't have the ability to send you back.”
He Qingyu was somewhat surprised that such self-deprecating words would come out of his brother's mouth. He could not remember how long it had been since the two brothers had sat down face to face.
Breakfast was soon served, and He Qingyu raised his chopsticks to taste it. It tasted good, but it didn't have the familiar feeling that she remembered. He asked, ”Oh yes, brother. I've been up for so long, why haven't I seen Aunt Lan?”
After eating breakfast, He Qing Ning paused for a moment before replying casually, ”Aunt Lan said that she wanted to go back to her hometown to have a look. After she applied for leave half a month ago, she still hasn't returned.”
When He Qingyu heard this, he slightly frowned. Looking towards the butler who had been guarding by the side all this while, ”Butler Xu, is what my brother said true? ”Did Aunt Lan really leave to go home half a month ago?”
Steward Xu glanced at He Qing Ning who had lowered her head to eat, smiling respectfully as he replied, ”Yes, Second Young Master. Aunt Lan had asked for a leave of absence from Madam half a month ago, and had not returned since her departure. ”
Based on his understanding of Aunt Lan's character, He Qingyu always felt that this matter was suspicious. However, he had no idea what was so suspicious about it. He asked again, ”Oh, so it's like that! ”Did Aunt Lan call back? I miss her cooking.”
Butler Xu shook his head, ”No.”
He Qingyu felt that this was even more strange. However, he suddenly remembered that he hadn't returned to his villa that night. He wondered if Zhou Xuanqing would think too much about it. He immediately shifted his attention to other things and stopped caring about Aunt Lan's problem.
In a villa in the suburbs, Zhou Xuanqing, who had not slept for the entire night, was driving out with two panda eyes, intending to head to the office.
When they were about to leave, they received a call from Qiao saying that Yang Qianqian had disappeared after going out to the bathroom last night.
Zhou Xuanqing blamed Little Qiao for not telling him about this until now. Little Qiao explained that Yang Qianqian had experienced similar situations in the past. However, it turned out to be a prank created by Yang Qianqian.
They thought that, just like last time, Yang Qianqian purposely disappeared to scare them.
Until today, Yang Qianqian still couldn't get through to the company. It was only then that they woke up. Something had happened.
Anxious, the few of them immediately called Zhou Xuan Qing, who had also left early the previous night. He wanted to ask if Zhou Xuanqing knew where Yang Qianqian was.
After the call connected, Zhou Xuan Qing's reaction made the girls understand. Zhou Xuanqing was completely oblivious to Yang Qianqian's disappearance.
A perfectly fine person disappeared into thin air from one of the best hotels in Bingcheng. Simply saying such a thing was enough to cause one to be astonished.
Calling the police required a person to disappear for 24 hours before he could report the incident. After thinking hard for a long time, Zhou Xuan Qing could only call He Qing Yu for help.
Ye Zichen took out his phone and clicked on the contact number. Just as he was about to press a number, his phone suddenly rang.
As Zhou Xuanqing looked at the caller ID, he realized that it was an unfamiliar number. Having experienced the threat of loan sharks on the phone, she felt a little uneasy and frowned slightly before pressing the answer button.
