Chu Yunxuan turned around, picked up her handbag from her desk, and intimately linked arms with Mu Chengxu. The two supported each other as they left the office.
“What was Yuan Junye up to today? Why couldn’t I reach him? I called him twice, once at ten and once at eleven, but no one answered.”
Mu Chengxu had come to the company because she couldn’t reach Yuan Junye by phone. However, even at the company, Yuan Junye was nowhere to be found.
Hearing this, Chu Yunxuan was slightly taken aback. She thought back to when Yuan Junye had called her, which was around eight in the morning…
She released Mu Chengxu’s arm, took out her phone, found Yuan Junye’s number in the contacts, and called him.
This time, the phone didn’t just go unanswered—it was turned off. Chu Yunxuan immediately realized something was wrong.
“Ms. Mu, something seems off. Mr. Yuan is busy, but he never turns off his phone. Let’s go back and check his location.”
With that, the two women, both in their seven-centimeter heels, hurriedly returned to the office.
Their hurried figures were spotted by Gu Xiang, who had just returned from lunch. She followed them into the office.
“Ms. Mu, Ms. Chu, is something wrong?” Gu Xiang asked with concern as she walked into Chu Yunxuan’s office.
“It’s Yuan Junye. He’s missing. Gu Xiang, you came just in time. His phone is turned off. Can you track the last location of his phone signal? I’ll check the nearby surveillance footage through the SkyNet system to see where he went.”
Gu Xiang was momentarily stunned upon hearing about Yuan Junye’s disappearance. She hadn’t expected him to go missing. After a brief hesitation, she quickly returned to her office to find his last known signal.
About ten minutes later, Gu Xiang rushed back, “Ms. Chu, Mr. Yuan’s last phone signal was in an abandoned factory in the western district.”
“I hacked into the surrounding surveillance systems and found a relatively clear image. Here are the surveillance photos.”
Using the internal software, Gu Xiang sent the photos to Chu Yunxuan’s computer. Chu Yunxuan, seeing the images, tightly gripped the mouse.
The photos showed four people. Two burly men were dragging a man whose body shape matched Yuan Junye’s. Another man, looking somewhat suspicious, followed behind them. It was evident he wasn’t a good person.
Chu Yunxuan recognized this man immediately—it was Geng Zewei.
“He actually dared to come back and lay hands on Yuan Junye. He must have a death wish.”
Mu Chengxu also stared at the man in the photo, confused by Chu Yunxuan’s words. “Do you know this person? Do you have a grudge against him?”
“Not exactly a grudge. He probably didn’t kidnap Yuan Junye out of hatred. Ms. Mu, I’ll have someone escort you back. If there’s nothing urgent, please stay indoors. If you must go out, take more people with you to ensure your safety.”
With that, Chu Yunxuan made a phone call. Shortly after, two men in black entered.
Seeing the black-clad men, Mu Chengxu and Gu Xiang were stunned. They hadn’t expected such individuals to be part of the company.
“Ensure Ms. Mu’s safe return.”
“Don’t worry, Ms. Chu. We’ll get Ms. Mu home safely.”
One of the men in black gestured for Mu Chengxu to follow. “Ms. Mu, please.”
Mu Chengxu, now completely bewildered, had intended to ask more about Yuan Junye, but seeing Chu Yunxuan’s serious expression and the men in black, she swallowed her questions.
“If there’s anything you need, let me know. Maybe I can help.”
Though she didn’t voice her questions, Mu Chengxu was worried about Chu Yunxuan handling this situation alone.
“Sure. If needed, I won’t hesitate to ask for your help. For now, your safety is paramount.”
Chu Yunxuan waved them off, urging them to leave quickly. She had other matters to attend to.
As Mu Chengxu left, Chu Yunxuan snapped her fingers in front of the dazed Gu Xiang, bringing her back to reality.
“Can you track this man’s location? I’ll provide all his details within a minute.”
Chu Yunxuan could gather all information about Geng Zewei within a minute. She just needed someone to pinpoint his location quickly, or else she would have to trouble Wen Xin.
“Well, I… probably can’t do that.”
“Alright, you can go back to your work then.”
Not wanting to trouble Gu Xiang, Chu Yunxuan softly dismissed her and then dialed Yan Yu’s number.
Watching Chu Yunxuan make the call, Gu Xiang hesitated before leaving the office. She felt useless. Despite her talent with computers, she seemed inadequate now.
She took out her phone and drafted a message to Wen Xin, asking how to quickly locate someone using their information.
Soon after sending the message, she received a simple question mark from Wen Xin.
About thirty seconds later, Wen Xin replied with another message, asking why she needed to know this.
Knowing the connection between Wen Xin and Chu Yunxuan, Gu Xiang didn’t hide anything. She explained everything she knew and sent Wen Xin the photos she had found.
Upon seeing Gu Xiang’s message, Wen Xin, who was eating, immediately lost her composure. She put down her chopsticks and stood up abruptly, making a phone call as she headed out of the dining hall.
Those eating with her exchanged confused glances, not knowing what had happened.
Mu Chengxi, sensing the seriousness of the situation from Wen Xin’s expression, also put down his chopsticks and followed her out.
