First, he scoured the first floor. After confirming its vacancy, Xiao Yichen ascended to the second floor.
On this level, Xiao Yichen made his way to the master bedroom. As he swung open the door, he called out, “Wan’er…”
Yet, the vast room returned no response.
Upon surveying the surroundings, Xiao Yichen deduced that she was absent. Although he contemted checking the study and other guest rooms, his gaze inadvertently fell upon the dressing table, halting him in his tracks as he exited the bedroom.
Upon approaching the dressing table, Xiao Yichen’s eyes fixated on the card and keys. A disquieting thought crossed his mind.
Did she leave these behind? Did she leave?
Reluctant to ept such a notion, Xiao Yichen took measured steps toward the dressing table. He opened the drawer beneath the dressing table, typically housing Wan’er cosmetics.
If her cosmetics remained untouched, she hadn’t left. She was still at home.
Yet, when Xiao Yichen unveiled the empty drawer, his heart quivered.
A step back was taken to regain his bnce.
Subconsciously, he muttered, “No, no. That’s impossible…”
Already panicking, Xiao Yichen urgently dialed Lin Wan’s number, only to encounter continued unresponsiveness.
The notification on his phone heightened the chaos within Xiao Yichen’s heart.
Where did she go? Where is Lin Wan? We have nned to share lunch at home. She has agreed to it. So, where is she?
Xiao Yichen stood in the bedroom, lost in contemtion, grappling with myriad possibilities and conjectures. He couldn’t distinguish between reasonable assumptions and inappropriate fears.
Upon regaining awareness, Xiao Yichen swiftly called You Luan.
“Mr. Xiao,” You Luan promptly answered.
“Deploy people throughout the city to find Lin Wan,” Xiao Yichen ordered sternly. Angerced his voice, and fury simmered in his eyes.
What happened? Why would she leave without any exnation?
On the other end of the line, You Luan was thoroughly taken aback. Does Madam disappear? Moreover, Mr. Xiao, who typically affectionately calls her Wan’er, now uses her full name. Additionally, his tone gives it an unmistakable edge.
“Did you not hear me?” Xiao Yichen’s tone grew even more ominous.
“Yes, I heard you. I’ll get on it immediately,” You Luan responded promptly.
After ending the call, Xiao Yichen’s emotions were in disarray. He left the bedroom, descended the stairs, exited the vi, and set out to search for Lin Wan.
The time he psed, minute by minute. The search team You Luan dispatched scoured the entire city while Xiao Yichenbed the streets in his car.
Simultaneously, he contacted Luo Zishen and Luo Ziyan, requesting their assistance in the search.
By the evening, past 8.00 pm, there was still no news from the search team.
Luo Ziyan called Xiao Yichen. “Yichen, we can’t keep searching like this. Let’s meet and discuss our next steps.”
Xiao Yichen, though disoriented, remained cognizant. After briefly contemting, he agreed, “Meet at the usual ce.”
“Mm, I’ll inform Zishen,” Luo Ziyan affirmed.
In a private club beneath the Eastern Empire, Xiao Yichen, Luo Zishen, and Luo Ziyan convened in the opulent privacy of a club room, their expressions weighted with concern.
“Where could Lin Wan possibly have gone?” Luo Ziyan inquired, perplexed..
