Flash Marriage: The Billionaire Addicted to Her-Chapter 598

「Half an hour later.」

Xiao Linye rushed to the hotel where Gui Xingli was.

Upon seeing him, Gui Xingli’s expression was incredibly grim.

Xiao Linye stepped forward and asked, "Have you checked the surveillance?"

"We’ve checked. There are no clues. The bodyguard has been sent to the hospital; he saw nothing," Gui Xingli said, somewhat breathlessly.

Xiao Linye frowned.

Gui Xingli looked up at him. "Xiao Linye, if anything really happens to her, I won’t forgive you, and I won’t let the Xiao Family off either."

Word by word, Gui Xingli spoke through gritted teeth, as if she wished she could tear him apart right then and there.

Xiao Linye’s lips were pressed tightly together, his mind in turmoil.

His phone buzzed. He pulled it out and saw the call was from the Xiao Family’s landline.

He didn’t answer; he just hung up!

Soon after, Xiao Li called.

Xiao Linye, whose head felt like it was about to explode with frustration, was in no mood to take these calls and hung up immediately.

He waited for nearly an hour.

Xiao Linye could no longer wait and called Lai Shuo directly.

Lai Shuo answered, "Master."

"Any news?"

"There’s news about a flight from the airport, but it’s for tomorrow night."

"Is that all?"

"That’s all for now. No other news," Lai Shuo said over the phone.

The flight information is for tomorrow night. That means Ye Yuning couldn’t possibly be taking a flight today.

"What about the highway entrances?"

"Checked those too. No trace of Miss Ye leaving the city."

Nothing. Absolutely nothing.

She didn’t leave via the airport, nor the highway... So, is it possible she’s still in Upper City?

Xiao Linye’s breathing grew heavier. "Search. Even if you have to turn Upper City upside down, you must find her for me."

"Yes, Master."

In fact, Lai Shuo had already arranged for people to search within the city by this time.

But Ye Yuning’s disappearance... How could it be so sudden?

After hanging up, Lai Shuo called Kang Xuan.

Kang Xuan answered quickly, "Hello."

"Are you with the Master?"

"No!"

He had just parked when Xiao Linye went straight into the hotel.

Hearing that Kang Xuan was not with Xiao Linye, Lai Shuo immediately asked, "What exactly is going on with the Master? Didn’t he and Ye Yuning divorce? Didn’t he insist the child wasn’t his?"

In that case, whether that woman is dead or alive, what does it have to do with him?

Never mind the Xiao Family, who also didn’t want Xiao Linye to remain entangled with Ye Yuning.

Lai Shuo himself didn’t want it either, given his deep-seated personal grudge against Ye Yuning.

It was supposed to be a simple collaboration, but in the end, it left him caught in the middle and alienating everyone.

To this day, the incident still cast a shadow over him.

Kang Xuan said, "Why are you worrying about so much? Just do what the Master tells you."

Unlike Lai Shuo, Kang Xuan had a simpler view of things.

If it doesn’t concern me, ask less and do more!

Lai Shuo muttered, "That woman is truly a temptress."

In all these years, he had never seen the Master care so much for anyone. He couldn’t understand what kind of bewitching potion that woman had used on him. Given their respective statuses, it was fundamentally impossible for them to continue being together. They’re divorced, so it should be a clean break, shouldn’t it? But now, they’re still entangled like this...

Kang Xuan retorted, "I’m warning you, that place in the Eastern Region is minus fifty degrees right now. Do you really want to go back there?"

Lai Shuo fell silent.

He definitely didn’t want to go. What kind of godforsaken place was that? Hot enough to kill you in summer and cold enough to make you drop dead in winter.

"Hurry up and find her. The Master must be getting anxious," Kang Xuan said.

It wasn’t just Lai Shuo; the Master himself had made several calls from the car earlier.

By now, for the sake of finding Ye Yuning, it could be said that all forces had been mobilized.

With all this, if someone were to say that woman held no place in the Master’s heart, who would believe it?! Lai Shuo still dared to gossip behind the Master’s back. What if, one day, the Master had a change of heart and was willing to be a father to another’s child? Wouldn’t Lai Shuo be completely done for then?

Meanwhile, Xiao Linye was growing increasingly anxious waiting for news about Ye Yuning.

Neither his people nor those sent out by Gui Xingli had returned with any news.

In all these years, he and Gui Xingli had rarely found themselves in such a situation together!

Now, Gui Xingli was glaring at him with a look that could kill...

And Gui Xingli kept repeating, "You already caused Ayi’s death! Do you want to cause his sister’s death too before you’re satisfied?"

"Why were you so convinced the child wasn’t yours?"

When Gui Xingli learned that Xiao Linye was convinced the child wasn’t his, her heart shattered.

Xiao Linye anxiously took a drag from his cigarette, his head in turmoil over the matter.

Gui Xingli pressed, "Is she that kind of person? You were with her for so long. Don’t you know whether she had other men?"

"Even if that child really isn’t yours, couldn’t you investigate how she conceived? What if she was violated?"

Xiao Linye said nothing.

Hearing Gui Xingli suggest that the child in Ye Yuning’s womb might be the result of her being violated, Xiao Linye’s mind reeled with a deafening buzz.

He stared at Gui Xingli, his breath catching in his throat...

Gui Xingli met his gaze. "Think carefully. Is she really that kind of person?"

It wasn’t just Xiao Linye.

Even Gui Xingli, who hadn’t known Ye Yuning for long, didn’t believe Ye Yuning would do such a thing.

Yet Xiao Linye, who had married her, had been with her day and night...

At Gui Xingli’s words, Xiao Linye’s world completely shattered.
