710 A Million Times for You 72 (1/2)

Upon hearing how serious the matter was, Lin Shishi immediately proceeded to look for Tuoba Gucheng without delay, before even having her breakfast.

”First Lady, why are you still so mindless and reckless when you move about? What's going to happen if you fall down?” Shi Xiaoyu said teasingly with a smile.

”Mother, do you know where Gucheng is now?” she asked worriedly.

”He's having a meeting. What's the matter?”

”I have something important to tell him.”

Shi Xiaoyu walked with her and asked, ”What's the matter? You seem really flustered.”

”Something has happened to my godsister. She went missing all of a sudden, we can't find her at all.”

Shi Xiaoyu lit up with surprise and asked, ”You mean An Xiaoning?”

”Yes.” Lin Shishi hurriedly left, leaving Shi Xiaoyu in high spirits.

It seems to be Heaven's will. An Xiaoning had met with a mishap even before I took action on her.

Ever since her husband's stern warning, Shi Xiaoyu had instructed her subordinates to stop shadowing An Xiaoning. Yet, she had unexpectedly gone missing.

Shi Xiaoyu was bursting with joy and euphoria. However, she knew that she ought to stay out of this matter, lest she gets caught by Tuoba Rui again. Besides, it had nothing to do with her anyway.

She had a clear conscience.

Lin Shishi arrived at the door of the meeting room and peeked inside to see that Tuoba Gucheng was indeed there. Although she desperately needed to see him, she knew that it would be inappropriate to barge in at this timing.

Thus, she had no choice but to wait outside quietly.

Half an hour later, the meeting finally ended.

Lin Shishi zoomed inside the room and called, ”Hubby.”

”What's the matter? You seem so flustered.”

”Something has happened to my sister,” Lin Shishi tiptoed to whisper into his ear.

A grave expression formed on Tuoba Gucheng's face immediately and he answered, ”Got it, go back and wait for news patiently. Leave the rest to me.”

”Okay,” Lin Shishi agreed with a nod.

After Lin Shishi left, Tuoba Gucheng immediately instructed his secretary to send an investigation team from B City and find out about the situation, regardless of whatever it takes.

She had actually gone missing.

Tuoba Gucheng's heart sank at the thought of it. The culprit better pray I don't find out who he or she is. Otherwise, I'm going to make sure he dies a horrible death!

The Xu family was in a constant state of anxiousness.

They monitored the situation via the live feed from the surveillance cameras.

Peace was disrupted, and they were filled with immense tension.

Jin Qingyan was the only one who did not yet know about the incident.

There were no reports about it on the news either.

Naturally, he wouldn't have known about it.

He was in the midst of having his breakfast when Long Tianze showed up.

”Are you kidding me? You're still in the mood for breakfast? Don't tell me you haven't heard about it yet?” said Long Tianze.

”About what?” Jin Qingyan asked, having his porridge slowly.

”Ms. An went missing last night. My wife didn't sleep at all throughout the night. The Jin and Lin families have both caused a stir in the police station and informed the government in B City. The President has sent an investigation team over to check on this matter.”

Jin Qingyan's initial composure grew into an uncontrollable rage. An austere and menacing expression formed on his face as he threw the spoon onto the table, producing a loud and crisp sound.

”Why are you only telling me this now!?!”

”Well, I thought you already knew! You've always been well informed about everything. How would I know that you haven't heard about it yet?”

”I didn't know at all. I initially had my people shadowing her in secret and keeping close tabs on her but I told them to stop last night!”

Jin Qingyan absolutely regretted his decision.

Why did I even agree to let her have her wishes!?!

He stormed off and exited the door like a raging bull.

By the time Long Tianze reached the door, Jin Qingyan had already driven away.

An Xiaoning had been on a long flight and spent a night on the cruise ship.

They finally arrived in R Nation.
