Ling Yue held her head in frustration as she sat on the bench in the lounge. For the entire morning, she was tortured by Shen Zhou until she was about to go crazy.

Shen Zhou always looked at her as if he saw his prey, which made Ling Yue inexplicably panic.

She could not help but wonder, as the boss of the Shen Business Empire, did he not have to work during the day?

Soon, Ling Yue had the answer to her question.

From the second day Shen Zhou appeared, for a whole week, Shen Zhou had disappeared without a trace.

Ling Yue felt relieved, but at the same time, she could not help but wonder what had happened to him.

For a week, Ling Yue had been waiting for Shen Zhou’s call.

Gradually, she realized that Shen Zhou would not be coming soon. While Shen Zhou was not around, she began to investigate diligently.

“Hurry up to find the clues and get out of here!” Ling Yue secretly cheered herself on.

The children stayed at Aunt Yuan’s home for a week. Ling Yue really wanted to hurry over and reunite with them.

One day, Ling Yue found that a few managers always sneakily gathered on the top floor in the afternoon. Ling Yue secretly followed them twice, but did not find anything.

On this day, Ling Yue arrived at the club early in the morning. Seeing that there was no one around, she sneakily went to the top floor.

Next to the meeting room on the top floor, there was a small room. The door of that room was always locked. Only a few higher-ups had a key.

Ling Yue stood at the door. Seeing that there was no one around, she secretly took out a small iron hook and stuck it into the lock hole.

This kind of lock was made up of three lock catches. A normal universal key could not open it.

Fortunately, her fifth child, who liked to tinker with something at home every day, gave her this small iron hook that was more useful than a universal key.

Ling Yue poked and prodded and finally opened the door after a clicking sound. She gently pushed the door open, and it was pitch black inside.

Ling Yue was about to enter when she heard someone talking. Ling Yue was shocked. She wanted to enter the room but was afraid of danger. If she didn’t go in, she was afraid that she would be exposed.

Just when Ling Yue was in a dilemma, a figure came from behind Ling Yue.

“Is that Coach Ling?” A pleasant male voice sounded.

Ling Yue’s body stiffened, and she slowly turned her head. It was a man who looked to be in his thirties. He was dressed in sportswear, and looked sunny and kind.

Ling Yue searched through her memory, but she couldn’t remember that she had seen such a person before.
