After coming down from the apartment, Lu Yanchen did not leave at all.
He sat in his car and leaned back on his seat. Instead of resting, he watched the topmost floor with a keen eye. It was only until the lights were turned off that he waited for a little while more before he could finally leave with ease.
Everything that had happened recently must have left her totally burnt out.
He truly wanted to stay by her side the entire time. However, given the situation right now, staying by her side was going to bring her the same pain she had felt when she found out about the truth.
The only thing he could do right now was to help her look for her sister as quickly as possible.
Lu Yanchen’s hand that was gripping the steering wheel clutched even tighter.
No matter what, he was going to find her sister for her!
Slamming onto the accelerator, he headed for the villa areas.
Vroom!
Before the car even came to a full stop, Lu Yanchen had already opened the car door and marched out toward a villa.
The one who opened the door was Chu Mubei, yawning, “Ugh, Old Lu! It’s already so late! What are you coming over for?”
“Is there news of Mo Feifei?”
“No way it could be this fast!”
Chu Mubei sat down on the sofa lazily, his eyes finding it difficult to conceal his fatigue as he remarked, “Her sister seems to have disappeared from the face of the world. There’s a high chance that sighting at Dujuan City might have been a mistake.”
He paused for a moment before continuing with the doubts in his heart.
“If that person was mistaken the other day and it wasn’t Mo Feifei… coupled with the fact that we’re unable to find her no matter what, we can’t exclude the possibility that something bad might have already happened to her.”
Lu Yanchen’s hands curled into a gripped ball immediately as his eyelids jerked intensely.
When Mrs. Yang went over to the Lus to create a scene the other day, everyone had already known that Yang Sitong’s lifesaving debt was a lie, and that it was his wife who had actually saved him. However, they did not know about the intricacies of the entire affair.
But, Chu Mubei knew.
He sighed out, “I know that this is an outcome that is hard to accept. However, if even we can’t find someone, that is probably the only possibility.”
Lu Yanchen replied with a strong conviction, “Her sister will definitely return!”
And if Mo Feifei were to never return, she would blame and hate herself for the rest of her life. The most extreme way she could punish herself would be to…
No matter what, nothing MUST happen to Mo Feifei!
Chu Mubei did not know whether or not to cry or to laugh. “I’ll have more people search it up in Jingdu City.”
“Don’t just keep your searches around Dujuan City. After all, that is only a tourist attraction. Using that as a center, search in a radius around it. As long as she’s in the capital, we’ll definitely be able to find her!”
The way that Lu Yanchen would not take no for an answer had Chu Mubei somewhat stunned.
Seemed like he would have to work even harder for this matter!
However, it was also a fact that even as the days went by and they had increased their manpower, there were still no news or signs of her.
They were almost convinced that the woman they had seen in Dujuan City was but a hallucination.
Lu Yanchen did not stay at Chu Mubei’s place, leaving for the carpark of the apartment once again. He went nowhere else, merely sitting in his car and watching the 12th floor all the time except when he was having his meals.
The days were especially short in winter, with the skies turning dark by 6pm daily. However, even though it was already 7pm right now, there was no sign of the lights being turned on at the 12th floor.
Lu Yanchen did not know if she had taken her meal and called for a takeout for her.
When the deliveryman went upstairs, he pressed the doorbell for a long time without anyone coming to the door…
