Devil CEO Comes Unexpectedly - C78
In Murong Aotian’s private villa, the Housekeeper Li was anxiously pacing back and forth in the living room.
“Clang! Clang!” The clock had rung ten times already, and the young master had not woken up yet.
Half an hour from now, it would be the usual time for the board. She was not worried that her young master would be late, so it didn’t matter if her boss was late. What she was worried about was that the young master wouldn’t even show up. Those board members were not easy to deal with. With the information they had gathered, the tough image that they had built up with great difficulty would not last long.
“Young Master, it’s time for us to head to the company.” Housekeeper Li finally could not resist going upstairs and lightly knocked on the door.
There was no response.
Just as Housekeeper Li wanted to continue knocking, his phone in his pocket rang.
In just a few short minutes of conversation, Housekeeper Li’s expression changed from anxious to surprised, to ecstatic. This news was extremely good news for both her and the young master. Even though she had always been calm, she was actually moved to tears.
“Young Master, Miss Wanbai escaped the marriage, the entire Young Master Jin is looking for her!” The Housekeeper Li’s voice trembled with excitement.
A few seconds later, the door opened and Murong Aotian appeared in Housekeeper Li’s line of sight, his hair and face disheveled.
“Is that true?” Murong Aotian asked with bloodshot eyes.
“Absolutely!” The Housekeeper Li said.
Murong Aotian turned around and went into the bathroom. He washed his face, brushed his teeth, shaved and changed his clothes.
“Immediately send people to investigate Su Wanbai’s whereabouts. We must find her before Jin Yihan does.” Murong Aotian said lightly.
The Housekeeper Li nodded.
At that moment, Jin Yichen was sitting by the sickbed, waiting for Su Xiaomi to wake up.
“Brother Yichen, where am I?” A weak and hoarse voice came over, pulling Jin Yichen back to reality from his deep thoughts.
“This is the hospital, you were …” “He’s injured.” Jin Yichen lowered his head, not daring to look at Su Xiaomi’s bandaged face.
Su Xiaomi wanted to laugh, but just as her lips raised a few degrees, it touched her cracked lips, causing traces of blood to ooze out. She tried her best to search the memories in her mind. Oh, right, Su Wanbai was saved by her and Big Brother Wiping. Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but feel overjoyed. In the future, Big Sister Wanbai would be completely free, and wouldn’t have to be trapped inside the Moser Manor like a caged bird. He was so beautiful, so kind, he should have lived her free and happy life.
“I apologize for my brother, he …” Jin Yichen raised his head, and his eyes immediately became wet.
“It’s fine, I can understand his anger. Such a grand wedding is a mess, even I wouldn’t be able to stand it. ” Su Xiaomi said.
Jin Yichen poured a cup of warm water and gently placed a straw beside his lips.
“Brother Yichen, you treat me so well!” As Su Xiaomi drank, she was actually unable to hold back her tears.
“I was wondering why I couldn’t find you, but it turns out the cat is here! You really have the mood to be leisurely, your brother lost all face for Jin Family, and even the old man was angered to the point of staying in the hospital, but you actually ignored him, and laid here, leisurely feeding the little miss water! ” Nangong Bingjie stepped on her high heels and appeared, her tone carrying a thick smell of jealousy.
“Where is Uncle now?”
“Where is Daddy now?”
Jin Yichen and Su Xiaomi said at the same time.
Nangong Bingjie slightly raised her brows: “It’s upstairs in the VIP ward!”
Jin Yichen gave the cup to Su Xiaomi and rushed out of the door.
Nangong Bingjie didn’t seem to be in a hurry to leave. She walked around the sickbed and arrived in front of the window.
“In my eyes, there is Su Wanbai, there is you, there are a lot of women, but I am the only one missing.”
Su Xiaomi turned her head with great difficulty to look at Nangong Bingjie’s back, “Brother Yichen will accept you one day, don’t be in such a hurry.”
The corner of Nangong Bingjie’s mouth lifted into a smile, but it quickly disappeared. She turned around and walked closer to Su Xiaomi’s face, step by step: “Jin Yichen is the only one in my heart, I want her dead! Only when she dies will Wu Chen slowly forget about her! ”
Su Xiaomi was shocked to the point that her eyes opened wide. Nangong Bingjie was actually such a crazy woman. Her serious expression didn’t seem like she was joking at all. Oh my god, I hope that Sister Wanbai won’t meet this woman in front of me in the future. Otherwise, she’ll really lose her life.
“Help me bring her a message. She’d better be honest and stay abroad, or else …” A sinister look flashed past Nangong Bingjie’s eyes.
A week later, Su Xiaomi finally recovered and left the hospital.
Jin Yichen said that he would come to pick her up, but he didn’t manage to do anything at the company. Su Xiaomi stood at the side of the road, just as she was about to wave her hand to stop a taxi, a man in black sunglasses suddenly walked towards her: “Miss Su, Young Master sent me to pick you up, please get in the taxi!”
Su Xiaomi thought that it was someone sent by Jin Yichen, and got in the car without thinking.
After walking for some distance, she felt that something was wrong. “My family lives on Tung Bird Road. I think we’re going the wrong way.”
The man in black turned his head, and suddenly said with a heavy face: “You committed such a big mistake and caused Young Master Han to lose all face, how could he be kind enough to send you home?”
Su Xiaomi panicked. She wanted to open the car door, but after trying several times, she realized that she was unable to. She tried to call for help, but the man in the passenger seat grabbed her cell phone as soon as she pulled it out.
“Young Master has said it, since you are willing to be Su Wanbai’s substitute, then I will bear everything that she has to bear.” The man’s lips curled up into a sinister smile.
Half an hour later, the car finally stopped.
In the glaring sunlight, the four golden words “Wanbai Residence” seemed exceptionally ironic. Originally, this was Jin Yihan’s wedding gift to Su Wanbai, but the workers did not receive any notice of it ending their work. Thus, they made this sign according to the time they had agreed upon. After the day of the wedding, Jin Yihan stayed in his private apartment and did not come back.
“From today onwards, you will be living here in Su Wanbai’s place. You are not allowed to take even half a step outside the villa. Also, there were no communication tools, no internet, and no television. There were only countless cameras and bugs, so it was best not to think about escaping. If discovered, not only will you lose your life, even your family will die with you! ” The bodyguard said this emotionlessly as if he was reciting it, then turned and left.
“Miss Su, please come in.” The bodyguard who was very familiar with Su Xiaomi said with a sullen face.
They were the young master’s subordinates, so of course they would stand by his side. Su Xiaomi had saved Su Wanbai, and the young master was truly a disgrace to them, for the headlines these few days were all news of Jin Yichen being mercilessly abandoned, and the people who harmed him were not worthy of their respect. Not only the bodyguards, even the servants who served Su Wanbai in the past were unwilling to look at her directly.
The villa was so big, yet it was so empty. Other than the Nanny Zhang, no one was willing to treat her sincerely.
“Miss Su, it’s time to eat!” When dinner time arrived, Nanny Zhang walked into the room with steaming hot dishes.
“Don’t you blame me? “Everyone else …” As Su Xiaomi spoke, her nose turned sour and tears started streaming down her face.
“When Miss Wanbai was here, she had a worried look every day. Now that she’s gone and living a free and happy life, I’m genuinely happy for her. “She’s a good person. You helped her, and you’re also a good person. How can I blame you?” Nanny Zhang whispered in her ear.
When Su Xiaomi raised her head, tears were already streaming down her cheeks.
In the desolate manor, the Nanny Zhang was her only comfort and warmth.
In the eyes of almost everyone, Su Xiaomi had just disappeared into thin air.
Su Xiaomi’s mother and brother couldn’t contact her, Jin Yichen couldn’t contact her, and neither could the manager of the Murong Group and creativity department.
Jin Yichen had gone to find his brother, but he was still angry, and was not willing to see him at all. On the fourth try, Jin Yichen simply charged in.
“Jin Yihan, get out here! Where did you get Su Xiaomi? Hand over the person! ” Jin Yichen shouted loudly once he entered the door.
After a long while, the main bedroom door of the second floor opened and Jin Yihan walked out with a gloomy face.
“You betrayed our brotherhood, making me the biggest joke in S city. You still have the face to ask me for the person?” Jin Yihan walked down the stairs, grabbed his brother’s collar and fiercely punched him. The right half of Jin Yichen’s face twisted to the side in the blink of an eye.
Originally, he could have dodged this punch, but Jin Yichen did not. He had let down his brother for this matter, he should have hit him! Jin Yihan’s strength was too strong, so he retreated a few steps and fell to the ground. He stretched out the back of his hand to wipe off the blood that was seeping out of the corner of his mouth, then stood up with a sway, a faint smile appearing on his face.
“Over here, over here!” Jin Yichen moved closer, and pointed to the right half of his face.
Jin Yihan raised his steel-like fist, and the wind blew past his face. No matter how much they hit him, Su Wanbai would never come back. All of his plans had been forcibly disrupted, and the hard-earned chance of revenge had been ruined by his younger brother’s appearance. Such an unexpected failure had made the man, who had been working hard at the mall for more than ten years, extremely depressed!
“Where did Su Wanbai go?” Jin Yihan approached them step by step, his eyes filled with sharp killing intent.
“I don’t know.” Jin Yichen lowered his head.
Indeed, he didn’t know, he only knew that the one who came to pick Su Wanbai up was her little brother. She might have gone to Vancouver, or she might have gone directly to another country. He was more anxious than anyone else to find out where Su Wanbai was and how things were going for him.
“Hahaha …” Jin Yihan suddenly laughed towards the sky.
