1739 Someone Who Can Definitely Get In Touch (2/2)

It had probably rung seven or eight times before the call got through. A sleepy voice picked up. ”Manager Ling... If you don't have a good reason for waking me up...”

”Ning Xi is missing. Do you have any way of getting in touch with her?” Ling Zhizhi asked frankly.

The other end of the phone was quiet for two seconds, then the man's voice was clearly much more awake. ”Ning Xi is missing? What do you mean?”

”Tonight is the premiere of ”Nine Realm”. I initially wanted to ask her to post on Weibo, but we can't get through to her phone. We've looked for her at home and the places she usually frequents, but we couldn't find her,” Ling Zhizhi quickly explained the situation.

”Tsk, this fella... Is she hiding somewhere to drink again? Can't believe she didn't call me for a drink!” muttered Jiang Muye.

”Ning Xi isn't someone who'd act inappropriately,” insisted Ling Zhizhi.

”Please! Did you forget about the last time she went crazy at the bar and almost caused a fan rebellion?” Jiang Muye immediately dug up an old story.

”I'm just worried something's happened to her...”

”You're thinking too much! Even if something happened. It would happen to someone else, ok?” Jiang Muye mocked. However, when he considered Ling Zhizhi's anxious tone, he kindly said, ”Fine, I'll help you look for her!”

”Okay, and may I trouble you to help me check if she's with CEO Lu?”

”Oh...” Jiang Muye was suddenly astonished in the next second. ”Bloody heck! You... How do you know about her and my uncle?”

”This isn't the main point.”

”How is it not the main point? Gosh! I'm still counting on using this against that girl! She was afraid of you finding out! Now, there's no more fun,” Jiang Muye said with a pained tone.

Ling Zhizhi fell into a speechless silence.
