Chapter 1128: Looking for Xia Yu
Chapter 1128 Looking for Xia Yu
Xia Yu’s villa is in another high-end residential area nearby, not far away.
Xia Ling went to ring the doorbell, but no one answered. The whole villa was eerily deserted. Her premonition was not good and she asked the driver: "Do you know where Xiaoyu went? Why is he not at home and not answering the phone?"
The driver said respectfully: "I don't know. How about I ask Miss Xia Yu's driver for you?"
Xia Ling nodded and said yes, but when asked, the result was the same. It was said that Xia Yu had not used a car for several days. Xia Ling panicked and made another round of phone calls. Feng Kun, Chu Chen, Xiao Hua and others...
But no one has seen Xia Yu recently.
Emperor Corporation Headquarters.
Chu Chen hung up the phone and knocked on the door of the chairman's office: "Boss, Xiao Ling just called and asked for news about Xia Yu." This is his meticulous and considerate place, knowing how important this small phone call is, It took more than ten years to work under a shrewd and critical person like Pei Ziheng and maintain his position.
Pei Ziheng said: "I understand."
As soon as he finished speaking, he also received a call from Xia Ling: "Xiao Ling? You said Xia Yu is missing? Don't worry, I'll send someone to look for her right now. Just wait for the news at home."
Hang up the phone, he glanced at Chu Chen who was standing respectfully waiting for instructions: "Go and get some missing persons notices, search for people in a big way, and remind the Wang family to keep people locked up."
Chu Chen bowed slightly in silence and retreated.
They all know it well, so what if they post more missing persons notices? Xia Yu is in the hands of the Wang family. At this time, even if she doesn't die, she has lost half of her life. There is no way the Wang family will let her go.
Xia Ling returned home and waited anxiously for Pei Ziheng to return, asking, "Has he been found?"
Pei Ziheng handed the coat he took off to Zhou's mother and said, "I have called the police, posted a missing person notice in all major media, and hired a private detective to do my best to search. Don't worry."
Xia Ling was still very worried: "She is not in good health, why did she disappear without saying hello? Could something have happened... She has been missing for several days, how come you didn't notice that she was missing?"
Pei Ziheng looked down at her: "You disappeared during that time, and all my energy was used to find you."
Xia Ling stared at him and suddenly fell silent.
Pei Ziheng said softly: "Do you know how anxious I was at that time? It's the same as how you are worried about her now. Where can I pay attention to anything else?"
She turned her head away silently, her heart sore and swollen.
Pei Ziheng looked at her and smiled silently. What she wanted was this effect, to move her, to feel guilty and uneasy, to think that Xia Yu's disappearance was all her own fault... Only in this way would she not discover the truth hidden behind the matter. And, to be completely devoted to him again.
He helped her sit down on the sofa in the living room and poured her a glass of water.
She was holding the cup with a dazed expression when she heard him ask: "Aren't you angry with me?"
She was slightly startled, remembering that she hated him so much that she wanted to bite off a piece of meat, but because she was so confused about Xia Yu's disappearance that she had to turn to him for help, she even forgot about her hatred. Biting her lip, she said: "If you can help me find Xiao Yu, I will... I will..."
“Just stay with me, okay?”
“I don’t want to be a mistress.”
"I have said before that I have never regarded you as my mistress." He leaned over and kissed her gently, his voice hoarse, "Xiao Ling, you are the only woman I love. You were, are, and will be in the future."
"I..." "Don't say no," he interrupted her gently, "Xia Yu's whereabouts are still unknown."
“You!” She was shocked and angry, staring at him, “You threaten me!”
Pei Ziheng's expression was still gentle, and his words were clear and calm: "From the beginning, what I wanted was you, only you, Xiao Ling, you have known it for a long time. When I was in the orphanage, if it weren't for your Reason, how could I adopt Xia Yu? "
She had indeed known it for a long time, but when he brought it up at this juncture, she still couldn't help but feel chilled: "You have raised Xiaoyu for so many years, even a cat and a dog should have feelings. She admires you so much, how could you do that?" So cruel? Pei Ziheng, don’t involve her in what happened between us!”
"Ha," Pei Ziheng chuckled softly and looked at her, "Xiao Ling, who brought her into our relationship from the beginning? What did you say when I wanted to adopt you? I won't treat Xia Yu for you. Don’t follow me. Are you thinking about not involving her now? She is nothing in my eyes.”
Xiao Ling still doesn’t know why Xia Yu wants to harm her.
A few days ago, he sent someone to arrest Xia Yu and asked her about the motive of her crime.
Unexpectedly, Xia Yu kept saying she loved him, so she hated Wang Jingwan and her sister, and came up with this poisonous plan to kill two birds with one stone. What could Xiao Ling love about such a vicious-hearted woman? He will tell Xiao Ling the truth and ask her to take back everything she has done to Xia Yu and only love him from now on.
However, not now.
Pei Ziheng pressed forward step by step: "Promise to stay with me, and I will continue to look for her."
Xia Ling was so angry that everyone was shaking: "You are despicable and selfish!"
Pei Ziheng was unmoved: "Despicable and selfish? Weren't you selfish when you used my money to treat Xia Yu? Nothing is so cheap in the world. You don't think I am so kind-hearted that I can just save a cat or a dog?"
Xia Ling looked at him and saw determination and cruelty in his eyes. She was trembling and whispered: "Please help me continue to look for Xiaoyu. I...I will give you all my money. There are several billions, which is enough to compensate you for the medical expenses you spent on Xiaoyu."
Pei Ziheng smiled again, but the smile didn't reach his eyes: "Is it really enough?"
The money he spent at the beginning was to buy Xia Yu's life. So what if Xia Ling is now worth several billion? Even these billions can't save Xia Yu's life back then! What's more, it was earned through his cultivation.
Xia Ling didn't know enough. She understood the truth, but other than that, she really didn't want to commit herself to him. Once he lets go, she will be his mistress. No matter how fancy he says it, this is an irrefutable fact.
Is this life going to be ruined like this?
"Why..." she murmured and asked him, "Why do you have to force me? Good from beginning to end, don't you want to leave a good memory in my heart? Why do you have to make me hate you?"
His expression moved slightly, but he quickly said: "Only when you are by my side can everything start well and end well."
“What if not?”
“Then it’s life and death.”
The air seemed to freeze, and her body trembled even more.
I heard Pei Ziheng say: "My patience is limited. Xia Yu has been missing for so long, something might happen. Her time to wait for rescue is also limited. After passing this village, there is no such store."
