wos his woy of moking peoce with her.
Ziyue hastily hung up the phone after hearing the response before making more calls.
Bai Jingshu appeared to be quite busy when she called. She hung up the phone quickly after saying he didn't see
him.
The only one left was Mo Xiyi.
"Ma'am."
"Doctor Mo, is Mr. Qin with you?"
Ziyue paused from the uneasy feeling in her stomach.
He must be with Mo Xiyi, otherwise, she would not know where to find him.
Even the company confirmed he never went there today.
"Mr. Qin arrived here in the morning, but I'm unsure of his whereabouts after he left," said Mo Xiyi. He questioned
calmly, "what happened?"
Ziyue's heart sank.
She reached out to hold the edge of the table beside her. Ziyue went quiet for a moment, then continued, "Did
he..*e by? Did he say anything? Anything unusual?"
Mo Xiyi answered truthfully, "I wasn't pay attention. He told me to hand him some medicine, so I did that. He just
left after that."
Doctor Mo was preoccupied at the time. While on call on his phone, he handed the medicine to Mr. Qin without
prompting him. When he realized the timing was rather unusual, Mr. Qin had already left the office.
"I see." Ziyue said goodbye and hung up the phone.
Ziyue was confused. Where would he have gone?
The voice of the servant interrupted Ziyue's thoughts. "Madam, dinner is ready. Would you like to have it now?"
"Serve the young master first. I'll be upstairs." After Ziyue finished speaking, she went upstairs.
She went to Mr. Qin's study.
The study was empty, other than Mr. Qin's phone on top of a desk. Ziyue went to investigate it.
The next day, she did not rise early. She attended to Lin Zixi and followed him on a dog-led stroll after breakfast. It
was almost noon when she returned. After having lunch, she took a nap with Zixi.
She didn't do much but accompanied Lin Zixi all day. Ziyue went back to Mr. Qin's study.
Mr. Qin got up early and didn't bring his mobile phone when he went out. She was unsure whether it was intentional
or unintentional.
Last night, Mr. Qin went upstairs to hand her a cup of water. He didn't say much, but he spoke with his actions. It
was his way of making peace with her.
There was absolutely no reason for him to suddenly disappear. He left without a warning.
Could he possibly be in an accident?
She prompted herself on Mr. Qin's chair and called Mr. Nan. Ziyue was utterly confused by his sudden
disappearance.
By now, Mr. Nan had received Ziyue's call twice. But this time, all the staff were on speaker.
Her call was instantly picked up.
"Madam! What's the matter? Has the boss come home?"
Ziyue still hoped that someone had information about Mr. Qin's whereabouts. "No, but does anyone know about his
previous whereabouts? He was at Dr. Mo's office this morning and, ever since then, has been missing."
Mr. Nan on the line was surprised by this development. He was also informed about Mr. Qin's phone, which was
rather unusual considering he was a busy man.
"I'll have someone investigate this. Don't worry Ziyue, we'll call you if there is any news."
"Thank you."
…
Ziyue spent most of her time in the study room, occasionally leaving to run her daily routine.
Lin Zixi finished eating, so she accompanied him until bedtime.
Even as Lin Zixi had been tucked into bed, there was still no news from Mr. Nan.
Suddenly, she heard the sound of the car engine. It was coming from the outside villa.
Ziyue's heart skipped a beat. Was that Mr. Qin?
Without hesitation, she sprinted outside without any shoes on.
The night sky was darker, with the moon hiding behind the clouds. Ziyue was guided by the streetlamps in the
courtyard. The trees cast a shadow from the artificial light as their silhouettes stretched longer on the pathway.
"Qin!" Ziyue shouted with shallow breaths.
She ran fast.
At the gate of the villa, multiple people stepped out of a car.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZiyue burst into tears as Mr. Qin's figure appeared.
Qin saw Ziyue at the gate.
He strode over to her. "Look how you are standing, well…"
Before he could finish, Ziyue wept.
Ziyue lost all emotional integrity right there and then. She hugged Mr. Qin and sobbed, "I thought I lost you…"
There was absolutely no reason for him to suddenly disappear. He left without a warning.
The weight of her body threw Mr. Qin off, but he managed to find footing for the both of them.
Instinctually, he hugged her. He could feel the warm tears on his chest.
He said softly, "Ziyue?"
Ziyue didn't respond but hugged him tighter. She wasn't done crying.
Mr. Qin responded by rubbing her back gently. They didn't move for a while, and neither the driver nor bodyguards
dared to interrupt the moment.
After a while, Ziyue finally composed herself. Mr. Qin was obliged to carry her back to the villa.
The driver and bodyguard followed suit.
...
At the villa door, the couple were greeted by the servants. "Sir," said a butler.
"Get me an ice pack," ordered Mr. Qin.
He knew that Lin Zixi would be sleeping in the bedroom, so he carried Ziyue to the guest room.
Ziyue sat on the bed while the servant arrived with the ice pack.
"Leave us," said Mr. Qin.
The butler left with haste. Mr. Qin walked over to Ziyue and sat beside her. He held out the ice pack and gently
dabbed them on her eyelids.
The ice packs were rather cold, so he paused for a moment before continuing the action.
Ziyue sat cross-legged on the bed, and her eyes had swollen from the intensive crying. She looked toward Mr. Qin
with her red nose — it was a pitiful sight.
Mr. Qin continued the practice two more times before putting the ice packs away. He couldn't hold back his
emotions and leaned over. He kissed her eyelids, then tilted her face to kiss her lips. Mr. Qin let her go after they
were out of breath. He cupped her cheeks with his hands and remarked, "I only went out for a day. Since when
have you turned clingy like Zixi?"
Ziyue was back on the verge of tears and pouted. "You left…and I thought you left for good…"
Mr. Qin frowned and said, "That's such nonsense. You and Zixi are still here. Why on earth would I leave?"
Ziyue choked the words, "Then why did you leave your phone?"
Mr. Qin gave a remorseful expression and said, "I simply forgot. I promise not to do it in the future."
