Chapter 53 Jean Got In The Wrong Bus And Her Wallet Was Stolen


    Shirley smiled with satisfaction and her eyes sparkled. "Jean doesn''t deserve Zed at all. The tweet on


    Weibo made such big trouble. Zed still believed her. Jean must have used some contemptible means


    to captivate Zed.


    If we want to get out of this matter, we have to create a misunderstanding between Jean and Zed. The


    deeper the misunderstanding, the quicker they will break up.


    Moreover, excellent men like Zed may be interested in a person like Jean, however, that willst only


    for a short period. Therefore, once they are separated, Zed won''t protect her anymore, and our


    problems will be naturally solved. Isn''t it?"


    "Actually, you are seeking a good future for yourself. You want to get married to Zed and live as a rich


    them, how will you make sure that Zed will marry you?"


    Everyone in the Wen house knew how Shirley truly felt. She had for long been envious of Jean only


    because of the person she had married. Shirley had often spoken about how her life would be had she


    been the one to marry Zed instead of Jean. Since Winner had spoken so candidly, Shirley didn''t feign


    innocence. She spoke honestly as well, "It is my decision whether or not to marry Zed. Anyway, my


    main concern is to stop that bitch from bullying me at will with Zed''s support."


    "Firstly, you need to persuade our dad and mom. Remember that we are now confined at home.


    Although I''m going out, I expect you to keep your promise. Don''t divulge my secret to dad and mom."


    "How do you feel about what I have said…"


    "I will talk about that with you after I return. You can rest assured. I am your brother. It goes without


    saying that I will always stand by you." After saying that, Winner hurriedly went to the window and


    looked down.


    The second floor wasn''t too high from the ground. And there was a partition between the two floors.


    Winner climbed out of the window and jumped on to the partition. Then he jumped to the ground. Since


    he was in good shape that wasn''t difficult for him.


    It took less than a minute for Winner to reach the ground.


    A car suddenly approached him and stopped. Winner got in the car quickly.


    Shirley shook her head reluctantly. Even if she didn''t like her younger brother, Winner was still the only


    other man in their family aside from their father.


    If Winner continued like this, he would not have the skills to lead the Wen Group in the future. If only


    their father believed that she were qualified enough to ede the family business.


    Shirley could not help thinking about that.


    Meanwhile, in the bus, Jean was puzzled. When she studied the bus routes, she had learned that it


    would take three hours for her to reach her destination. However, the bus that Jean had climbed in had


    been driving for the whole day. Jean remembered that Sonny had asked her to go to the bus terminus.


    But… after driving for such a long time, why hadn''t the bus arrived at the terminus?


    Jean looked at her watch. It was already four o''clock in the afternoon. As the bus continued on it''s


    journey, Jean fell asleep. She had no idea how much time had passed. It was only when the sky


    darkened that she sensed something may be wrong.


    She had sat in the bus for the whole day without stopping to eat. Since she wasn''t expecting such a


    long travel time, she hadn''t packed food either. As Jean looked around, she realized that there were


    only a few people left in the bus at that time.


    Jean looked outside the window and found that the bus was in a deste area. It was so deserted that


    she barely saw any houses.


    "Driver, when do we arrive at the terminus?" she asked.


    "We''ll arrive there soon."


    "Doesn''t it only take three hours to reach Kim Vige?"


    "Kim Vige?" The driver snorted before giving her a strange look. He pointed at the front road sign


    and said, "We aren''t at Kim Vige. This is Tube Vige. Lady, you have gotten into the wrong bus!"


    Jean''s eyes widened when she heard the driver''s exnation. She felt as though she was in a trance.


    What could she do now that she had picked the wrong bus?


    Jean frowned as she grabbed her suitcase and the photography equipment. She informed the driver


    that she intended to get off. Once the bus pulled over, Jean alighted. She stood by the road sign and


    watched as a few cars passed by. She was quite upset. ''Oh, my god!'' she thought. She actually took


    the wrong bus. The pronunciation and spelling of Kim Vige and Tube Vige were different. So how


    could she have made such a mistake?


    Jean thought back to her time at the bus stop. There had been so many people that perhaps she had


    been shoved to the wrong side and didn''t realize it.


    Thinking of that, Jean sighed dejectedly. It was almost night. The driver had mentioned that the only


    other bus service in the area would be the next morning. He had also informed her that there was a


    town within walking distance. And so, Jean decided to find a hotel to stay for the night.


    Carrying her luggage, Jean helplessly walked toward the town. She hadn''t needed her wallet all this


    time, and so she still didn''t know that it had been stolen earlier that day.


    At the Qi Group''s CEO''s Office, Zed sat at his desk looking at some papers.


    It was gettingte. Outside the french windows, the sky gradually darkened.


    As the sun inched its way to the horizon, the city was bathed in a soft orange glow. The setting sun


    made the whole city look a bit lonely.


    Over the past few days, in addition to his work, Zed found that he was gued with thoughts of Jean.


    He thought of her smile, her voice… He didn''t know when he had fallen in love with this woman.


    But Jean… She seemed to have no affection for him. In her heart, Jean just thought that their marriage


    was a business deal.


    And in her heart, Ethan seemed to be of greater importance than Zed.


    A sudden knock on the door interrupted his thoughts. Zed raised his head and said, "Come in."


    "Mr. Qi, the appointment with Mr. Li is scheduled for six o''clock. However, there is a massive traffic jam


    outside. If you want to make the appointment time, you need to leave now..." The secretary politely


    informed Zed.


    Zed looked at his watch. It was nearing five o''clock.


    He didn''t want to go to the appointment scheduled for tonight. He had been absent-minded all day and


    hadn''t focused on work. He had been consumed by thoughts of Jean demanding a divorce.


    As Zed thought of Jean, he picked up the mobile phone and habitually checked her location.


    Although the secretary hadn''t received a response from Zed, she waited patiently. She would not urge


    Zed again.


    When he switched on the GPS and located Jean, Zed felt a trace of anxiety. His usually expressionless


    face changed to one of worry.


    As per the GPS, Jean was more than three hundred kilometers away from him. Zed wondered what


    had prompted her to go so far away. He zoomed in on the map and found her location to be a remote


    town.


    The very next moment, the position on the map disappeared. Zed panicked and tried to locate Jean


    repeatedly. However, the signal had been lost.


    He immediately called Jean.


    "Sorry! The subscriber you have dialed is unavable. Please try againter…" a recorded message


    red in Zed''s ear.


    "Damn it!"


    Zed cursed as he put the phone in his pocket, walked quickly to the desk, and grabbed the car keys.


    He went to the door and told his secretary, "I won''t be going to the appointment tonight. Please go on


    my behalf and apologize. Tell them that I have to deal with an urgent matter."


    "Okay, Mr. Qi." The secretary nodded before running to press the elevator button for Zed.


    ''Mr. Qi has always been calm and rational. What happened to make him like this? He seems to be


    quite anxious. Even his eyebrows have been furrowed! Did something untoward happen?'' thought the


    secretary.


    As night fell, Zed frantically sped along the highway.


    Meanwhile, Jean had reached the town and walked it end to end searching for a hotel. However, there


    were none to be found. After over two hours of walking, she had almost given up. She had seen a few


    small restaurants nearby and decided to have a meal first. Since she was tired and hungry, at least she


    could settle one concern.


    After eating and drinking, Jean asked the owner where the nearest hotel was. The owner told her that


    there was only one hotel in the whole town. Then he proceeded to give her directions. After thanking


    the owner, Jean asked for the bill. However, she found that the wallet was gone!


    She remembered packing her bag earlier that morning. In fact it had been so full that there wasn''t ce


    for something as small as a hair pin. Now, however, the bag was almost empty!


    Jean stared at her bag as reality set in.


    Seeing that, the owner understood what had happened to Jean. The girl had undertaken a long journey

    and her wallet had been stolen by pickpockets. She had no money. Thinking about that, the owner


    immediately changed his attitude.


    "Lady, it seems that you have no money to pay."


    Jean slowly raised her head. She bit her lip and felt helpless. She did not know how to deal with such a


    situation. Her wallet had been stolen. As for the mobile phone… Jean suddenly thought of her mobile


    phone.


    The only thing she could do at that time was ask someone for help.


    Eagerly, she grabbed her phone. However, when she looked at the screen, she realized that it had no


    charge left and had powered down.
