Ten minutes later, Zhixi finally understood everything.
He Jingyao and He Yirong had disappeared together.
The police tracked them to the place of disappearance, halfway up the mountain road, where there was a deformed car hit by a collision and a scattering of towing tools on the ground.
Police saw an off-road vehicle down the cliff on one side, and it was identified as the one He Yirong was riding in, but inside the vehicle, only the driver’s corpse was found, with no sign of He Yirong.
Currently, they are still searching for the figures of He Yirong and He Jingyao beneath the cliffs on both sides, but as of now, they have found nothing.
After listening, Zhixi found herself unexpectedly calm.
Thankfully, it’s just a disappearance, not necessarily an accident, and she believes that He Jingyao will be alright.
"Jingyao will be fine," Zhixi couldn’t help but say, "Uncle will be fine too, don’t worry."
Liu Minjun nodded with a smile, but tears fell from her eyes.
"By the way, I still don’t know why Jingyao suddenly went to find Yirong..." Liu Minjun choked as she spoke.
"Because it seems that Uncle was in danger. Someone informed Jingyao," Zhixi pursed her lips, recalling the expression on He Jingyao’s face when he saw that email, "But I can’t understand who would want to harm Uncle."
Li Bo also furrowed his brow.
Suddenly Liu Minjun blurted out, "He Yizheng! It must be him! Earlier today, before Yirong left, he was saying that He Yizheng is unreliable and that the company can’t be entrusted to him or anything like that... He must have expressed this sentiment in front of He Yizheng, which is why He Yizheng holds a grudge!"
"Madam, did the master ever make a will? Does He Yizheng know about it?" Li Bo suddenly asked.
Liu Minjun rubbed her temples: "The will... he made one a long time ago, but after the incident last time, I don’t know if he changed it. Maybe he has already changed it, and He Yizheng knows the content of the will, which is why he targeted Yirong."
After speaking, Liu Minjun couldn’t sit still: "I should go back... Zhixi, why don’t you take Xiaobao to the old house for a few days? I can’t rest assured with you taking care of the child alone."
Zhixi shook her head: "Jingyao told me to wait for him here. And Li Bo is here too, don’t worry."
Liu Minjun glanced at Li Bo awkwardly, and Li Bo nodded to her: "Don’t worry."
Only then did Liu Minjun give in, gently nodded, and turned to leave.
Li Bo turned his gaze to her and spoke warmly: "Young Mistress, you should go rest. I will notify you immediately if there is any news."
Zhixi nodded, stood up, and returned to her room.
By this point she discovered she was much calmer than she had imagined.
She just knew that before the outcome was unveiled, she absolutely couldn’t break down, for herself, for the child, and for Jingyao. Otherwise, when he comes back and sees her neglecting her health, he will certainly be very angry.
She couldn’t let him be angry.
Zhixi couldn’t help but smile. Yet tears followed, streaming down. For origınal chapters go to 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝔫𝔢𝔱
The next day, upon waking up, Zhixi received the news that He Yirong had returned.
He had sustained some injuries, but they weren’t serious, only some weakness. Along with He Yirong, Feng Qian and two other bodyguards were also brought back by the police from Lingdu. They had only minor bruises similar to He Yirong’s.
When they were found, several of them were unconscious on the ground, but there was no sign of He Jingyao.
