Chapter 976: Chapter 976: The Ex-Husband is Blind Chapter 976: Chapter 976: The Ex-Husband is Blind They chatted the whole night, and Xia Chuqing didn’t have anything else to do, so she just kept Xu Chaomu company.
Xu Chaomu learned that Xia Chuqing ca to Jin City for her winter vacation. The scenery here was beautiful, and she had long yearned to visit this place.
As for her family, they lived in A City, which was very far from C City.
Her parents didn’t really control her much, so when she insisted on coming alone, they allowed her to co by herself.
“I’ll stay here until after the new year, then my parents will co and take ho for the holidays. Sister Chaomu, do you want to join for a visit to A City?”
“No, I have to start working after the holidays.”
“Alright then, I’ll leave you my phone number.”
Xia Chuqing gave her a phone number, and Xu Chaomu further inquired, “Which university do you attend?”
“C City,” Xia Chuqing answered. “C University, majoring in finance.”
When Xu Chaomu heard it was C City, she beca sowhat distracted.
“My dad says he’ll send abroad to business school when I’m a senior,” Xia Chuqing sighed.
“That’s good, the United States?”
“Hmm.”
“Alright, I’ve given you my number, and I’m going hiking in a couple of days. Do you want to co along?”
“No, I haven’t been feeling well lately, can’t hike. But I’m up for other activities,” Xu Chaomu said with a smile.
“Cool, just call if you need anything. I’m always around. I’m going back to my room across the hall, my second uncle will get mad if he can’t find ,” Xia Chuqing stuck out her tongue.
No sooner had she finished speaking than the girl dashed out and vanished from sight.
Xu Chaomu saved her number, never expecting that the first contact on her new SIM card would be a young girl she had never t before.
Fate really is a subtle thing.
This girl was like a little sun, warm and passionate, and Xu Chaomu liked her a lot.
With soone to keep her company, she wouldn’t be so lonely.
She planned to settle down in the next few days and then look for a job.
The first day she arrived in Jin City, she fell in love with this kind of life; carefree and at ease.
The environnt in Jin City was truly pleasant. Not far from where she stayed were mountains, and the air was so fresh when she got up in the morning.
This place was so different from Jinxiu World, lacking the prevalence of luxury cars; here, there were more people.
When she went out for a walk in the morning, she would greet the elderly people.
Once she beca familiar, they would bring her food or take her to nearby places to wander around.
Xia Chuqing liked to sleep in during the morning, and in the afternoon, the two of them would stick together and hang out.
Being of similar ages, they found it easy to talk about everything.
When Xia Chuqing went hiking, she even brought back lots of food for Xu Chaomu.
“Sister Chaomu, are you planning to settle down in Jin City?” Xia Chuqing asked.
The two of them sat in the room, watching TV and snacking.
“Yeah, I think it’s great here,” Xu Chaomu said, popping a chip into her mouth. “The scenery is beautiful, the people are nice, it suits .”
“Then, do you have any… plans to find a boyfriend?”
“Hmm?” Xu Chaomu blinked, a question she truly hadn’t considered.
“I an, finding a boyfriend. You are so pretty, you could definitely find a handso guy,” Xia Chuqing said. “But handso guys are unreliable, often quite fickle.”
“I’ll look for a boyfriend once I get my job situation stable,” Xu Chaomu laughed.
“If you were in A City, I could get my dad to arrange a job for you.”
“No worries, you should believe in my abilities.”
“Right, right, I trust you,” Xia Chuqing said. “Once you get settled in your job, let know. I can introduce you to so reliable guys; I know tons of successful n.”
“What does your family do?” Xu Chaomu suddenly beca curious.
“Nothing much, just so small business,” Xia Chuqing stuffed a plum into her mouth and said with a cheerful smile.
“Alright, introduce to them when the ti cos.”
“So, what are your requirents?”
“Soone who doesn’t mind a second marriage, has a cheerful personality, simple, that would be nice. As for successful n… forget it, they’re not from the sa world as I am.”
“Sister Chaomu, your standards really aren’t high,” Xia Chuqing remarked. “n like that are a di a dozen: bank employees, low-level civil servants, small-ti corporate workers. Do you like that type?”
Xu Chaomu pondered for a mont and then nodded her head: “Pretty good.”
“Okay then, I’ll keep that in mind and look out for you.”
The two of them cooped up on the sofa, enjoying the air conditioning and watching TV. Both of them were lively and open in conversation, talking about everything under the sun.
“Sister Chaomu, the New Year is coming up, aren’t you going ho?” Xia Chuqing lay on the sofa and looked at Xu Chaomu.
She noticed that Xu Chaomu was truly beautiful with her lon seed face and willow-leaf eyebrows, and most importantly, she had such a good temperant!
Her ex-husband must have been blind!
But that kind of man was not worth keeping. Xu Chaomu deserved better.
“I don’t have a ho. My parents passed away a long ti ago, and I don’t have children,” Xu Chaomu said indifferently.
Xia Chuqing felt a twinge of sorrow and quickly apologized: “I’m sorry, how about I spend the New Year with you?”
“Okay,” Xu Chaomu agreed with a smile.
“Hug!” Xia Chuqing got up, wrapped her arms around Xu Chaomu’s neck, and nuzzled against her.
Xu Chaomu laughed but also hugged Xia Chuqing back.
…
Xu Chaomu had been in Jin City for seven days when Xiao Mo finally tracked her down.
Xiao Mo was deep in sleep at five in the morning when a phone call woke him.
“Secretary Xiao, we’ve found a lead.”
“What lead? Speak clearly!”
“It’s about Mrs. Shen’s whereabouts.”
Xiao Mo instantly lost all sleepiness, and said gravely, “Go on.”
“We checked all the places Mrs. Shen could have been in C City but didn’t find any trace of her. So, we went to the airport and the train stations to check identity card information. It was a huge task and still ca up empty.”
“Get to the point!” Xiao Mo held his temper.
“Yes, yes. We thought maybe Mrs. Shen took a bus, since that doesn’t require an ID card.”
“And so?”
“So, we checked all the bus station surveillance videos in C City. It took five people three days and nights of continuous viewing.”
“The point!” Xiao Mo was at the end of his patience. All this talk and for what, to show off their efforts?
“The point is, seven days ago, after Mrs. Shen returned from the airport, she went to Dongcheng Bus Station. The surveillance showed she bought her ticket at window number 2. I interrogated the ticket seller and retrieved the ticketing record, and discovered, Mrs. Shen bought a ticket to Jin City.”
Jin City? The Jin City near C City?
In a flash, Xiao Mo fell silent.
“Secretary Xiao, Mrs. Shen would have arrived in Jin City around ten in the morning,” the voice on the phone said. “As for Jin City itself, we haven’t started investigating there yet. As soon as we got this information, I called you.”
Xiao Mo remained silent, his brows furrowed.
In his mory, Jin City was a place of stunning scenery, with clear mountains and waters, simple customs, a tourist hotspot.
“Secretary Xiao, Secretary Xiao…” The person couldn’t hear Xiao Mo speaking and nervously called out twice, “Do you have any instructions or orders?”
