Chapter 76 - "Find Her!" (1/2)

Having said this, Xie Jingyu stood up, he left the office without looking back, and Bai Lian, who knew him well, was aware that he was not happy. Not happy at all.

She regretted. She had been impulsive because of Yu Huiyin, and now Xie Jingyu knew of her feelings for him. He was going to trust her less in the future.

Gritting her teeth, Bai Lian looked at the vanishing back of Xie Jingyu, and she could not control the hatred in her heart as she dug her fingernails into her palms.

Blood began seeping out through the small cuts in her palm. Unfortunately, Xie Jingyu did not turn around to look at her at all. Instead, he had left the office in a rush, clearly going to look for Yu Huiyin.

Bai Lian was correct. He had indeed planned on looking for Yu Huiyin, and the moment he exited the office, he saw Assistant Song coming towards him.

”Find Huiyin right away!” Xie Jingyu said, his voice full of coldness and anger, and Assistant Song could not help but feel uncomfortable. What had angered him this much? Was it madam?

He began fearing for what might happen to Yu Huiyin if she was found, but he dared not go against his boss' orders, so he hurried around looking through the entire office trying to find her, but to no avail.

He went to check the surveillance office, only to find that her expression seemed wrong as she walked out of the office with hurried steps.

Xie Jingyu was uncomfortable, as he saw the videos of Yu Huiyin leaving so decisively, and he felt his heart ache when he was reminded of how she had cried before.

He could not help but feel guilty. Why on earth had he allowed Bai Lian to get between them?

Xie Jingyu took his phone, and after calling home, only to hear that she was not there, he hesitated slightly, but in the end, he still called Grandpa Han.

”Grandpa, is Huiyin at your place?” he asked worriedly. ”No, she has not been here since last time you were here together.”

A silence erupted on the phone, and Grandpa Han suddenly could not help but ask, ”are you quarreling?”

”We just confirmed our feelings for one another,” Xie Jingyu said, not hiding anything from the old man. ”But one of my subordinates incriminated me, and I am afraid that she is sad and worried that she might misunderstand.”

Grandpa Han was happy that everything was being told honestly to him, and he considered the situation. ”She is very calm, and she would not be swayed by fake rumors. I am sure that she is not blaming you unless you truly let her down. Perhaps she just needs some time to herself?”

Xie Jingyu felt a bit better, but at the same time, he was not comfortable. ”I got to run,” he said on the phone and ended the call with Grandpa Han.
