The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Mu's Pampered Wife Chapter 1286 - If Only You Were Here 3

Chapter 1286 If Only You Were Here 3

When Xi Xiaye sounded uneasy, Mu Yuchen frowned.

Moments later, he said, “Don’t panic. Ah Mo is in City B right now. I’ll get him to find out what happened. Don’t let anyone else know first. We’ll handle it once we find out what happened.”

“I think so too. I’m not sure if Qi Qiming already knows, but I bet that he doesn’t. By the way, I have something else to tell you. Gu Qiwu came to visit me some time ago about Lings.h.i.+. He said…” Xi Xiaye did not forget to tell him about that since she needed to consult him on what to do.

Mu Yuchen already figured out what Gu Qiwu was considering. He put on a cold smile. “He’s just trying to use you to give me a reminder. Just ignore him.”

Gu Qiwu was trying to use Xi Xiaye to give Mu Yuchen a nudge, but if he had the time to do that, he could be excluded from suspicion of having anything to do with Qi Lei’s disappearance. After all, there was no benefit for him to harm Qi Lei.

“Mmm, Ah s.h.i.+ seems to have some ideas of her own though I’m not so sure, and I suppose you should give her a call. Do find out what happened to Qi Lei. I’m afraid that I don’t have the capacity to work on that right now.” Xi Xiaye closed her eyes as she said, “Gu Lingsha was released too. I heard that Doris was behind it.”

“Don’t worry about it. I’m here. How’s our son?” Mu Yuchen did not want her to get involved.

“Just had dinner. Sis w.a.n.g’s bathing him right now. When are you coming back? It’s been so long!”

“Soon, don’t worry.”

“Mmm, take care of yourself. Let me know if you find anything. I’m feeling really uneasy.”

…

Mu Yuchen seemed secretive when he hung up. His eyes appeared cold as well.

“What’s wrong? Did something happen?” Zhou Zimo asked.

“Something might’ve happened. Qi Lei’s missing.” Mu Yuchen’s eyes darkened. It was hard not to notice the chilly aura coming from him. He had overlooked Qi Lei. Although he had considered that something like this might have happened…

“What? Qi Lei’s missing?” Shocked, Zhou Zimo frowned as well. “Who did it? Is this a trap?”

Mu Yuchen pursed his lips and did not say anything.

“Qi Feng? He seems to be the obvious answer. However, I suppose there’s no point guessing who did it right now. We need to find him first, or maybe it’s just a misunderstanding.”

“Have some rest. I’ll look into what’s happening.” Mu Yuchen then got up and walked towards the door.

“Don’t worry too much about it. Qi Lei is a smart guy. He might be able to get something out of this even!” Zhou Zimo tried to comfort him, but Mu Yuchen waved his hand and left the room.

…

The situation seemed dire, so Mu Yuchen went straight to the company after leaving the hospital.

Li Si noticed that Mu Yuchen’s expression was grim throughout the whole trip. “Master, maybe we could ask Ah Mo to investigate. He’s in City B right now and it won’t be difficult for him to find out.”

At that suggestion, Mu Yuchen grabbed his phone and called Ah Mo. The call went through, but no one picked up. As his eyes darkened, he dialed the number again, but it ended up the same!

Suddenly, a thought flashed across Mu Yuchen’s mind. He quickly called the branch office and got word that Ah Mo had returned to City B yesterday!

Mu Yuchen squinted his eyes as he kept his phone.

Li Si was a little terrified when he noticed Mu Yuchen’s expression, so he asked carefully, “Master? What’s the matter?”

“Check Ah Mo’s whereabouts in the last few days quickly! Find out if he met with Qi Lei, and what happened with CEO Li. Who else knows that both Ah Mo and Qi Lei went to City B, and why would they head to City B at the same time?!”

Mu Yuchen was getting more and more worried.

It seems like not only had Qi Lei gone missing, but Ah Mo was missing as well!

“Master, do you mean that…Ah Mo’s missing?” Li Si’s eyes widened as he asked Mu Yuchen. “That’s impossible. Ah Mo is skilled and he’s quick-witted. He wouldn’t just go missing!”

Mu Yuchen clenched his phone tightly and tried to suppress his uneasiness. “This is worse than I thought.”

Having worked alongside him for a very long time, Mu Yuchen knew Ah Mo’s careful ways very well.

All these coincidences pointed to the fact that they were not flukes.

“Master…” Li Si could sense the severity of the issue.

“Just do what I said. Delay the schedule for today and find out what’s happened. We might have to head over to City B right away.”

“Yes, Master! Things will be really complicated if your guess is correct. Could it be Gu Qiwu? Or is it Qi Feng?” Li Si threw out some guesses.

Mu Yuchen’s eyes darkened. “I don’t want to make any guesses now, but if that’s really what has happened, I’ll make sure they know they’ve messed with the wrong person.”

“Yes, Master! I’ll get on it right away!” Li Si quickly left the room.

Mu Yuchen leaned back in the chair after Li Si left. He felt a sudden headache come on, so he closed his eyes for some rest and fell asleep soon after that.

He was exhausted from all the work he had to do lately, but there was no time for him to take a breather. He thought that things would ease up a little…

After some time, his phone vibrated, so he took a glance at it. It was a voice note from Xi Xiaye.
