Chapter 1044: Chapter 1044: Could It Be That She Really Ran Away from Her Wedding?
"Ca back to rest for a while and felt much better. Let’s sleep separately these days to avoid passing the cold to you."
He was troubled not finding a reason for sleeping separately these days; he wasn’t really afraid of passing the cold to her. The main reason was he needed rest after his surgery these days and feared she might find out.
"If you feel any discomfort, rember to tell ."
At the dining table, Ye Xinluo had a good appetite and ate two bowls of rice. After eating and drinking her fill, Beichen Rui pulled her out for a walk.
They walked for more than twenty minutes before he was willing to let her return to the bedroom.
At night, without Beichen Rui by her side, Ye Xinluo suffered from insomnia, only slowly falling asleep near dawn.
...
Xu Kun returned from his business trip, and started working day and night, sotis so busy he didn’t even have ti to eat.
Finally, after dealing with a mountain of paperwork, he leaned back in his chair to rest briefly.
The phone on the table chid with a "ding". He picked it up and glanced at it; it was so trivial news.
Just as he was about to delete everything, he suddenly spotted a familiar na in his peripheral vision and, compelled by an unknown force, clicked in.
The headline for the news was, [Heiress of Xia Trading Company Missing for Days].
[It is reported that the heiress of Xia Trading Company, Xia Yuan, attempted to flee the scene during an engagent with the eldest son of the leading construction sector company, Li Group, in Hai City over half a month ago, and remains uncontactable.]
A photo was attached at the end; Xu Kun glanced at it—no different from his assistant—and there was a contact number below. It noted that if anyone has seen her, they could contact the number, and if the information was verified, there would be a reward of three million in appreciation.
He recalled the scene when he first t Xia Yuan; she was in a hurry with soone chasing behind.
She was wearing a small formal dress, and her hair was styled.
Could it be that she really escaped from the engagent?
Xia Trading Company, a leader among all trading companies in Z City, has significant dealings with Beichen Group every year.
Such an engagent would definitely have a lot of dia coverage; to keep the incident under wraps for so many days before being exposed, it’s clear the power is quite formidable!
His grip on the phone tightened.
In the evening, after returning to the apartnt, after dinner, he didn’t rush to handle matters, instead waiting for her to take a bath and then called her to the living room.
Xia Yuan appeared puzzled, "Do you have sothing to discuss with ?"
"Did you see today’s news?"
"No, I’ve been busy with work all day, didn’t have ti to look at the news."
Xu Kun sat with his legs crossed, casually questioning, "You’ve been living here for so long without
asking, what does your family do? How co you suddenly appeared there? From your attire, your family’s circumstances should be quite good!"
Upon hearing this, Xia Yuan lowered her head slightly, biting her lower lip and clutching the corner of her clothes tightly. After hesitating for a while, she spoke, "My father runs a trading company; I’ve told you. I just returned from abroad recently, and don’t have many friends here."
Xu Kun didn’t expect she would choose to tell him and had thought she would wait until he showed her the news before admitting!
"Why did you appear there..."
"Because my father wanted
to get engaged to soone I don’t like, and I didn’t want to, so..."
"So you ran away?"
As if from a lodramatic scene, she happened to get in his car, and bizarrely, he even agreed to let a heiress live in his ho for over half a month?
