Unfortunately, he couldn’t get through to the professor.
Resigned, he called Qiao Fei.
“Brother-in-law.”
“Fei, where are you?”
“Yunnan.”
Qin Chu: “…”
“You’re still there?”
“Yan is wounded, and I don’t think she would’ve been able to get far from here. I decided to start from the position where she was wounded and expand the searching area little by little.”
“You found no clues?”
“No.” Qiao Fei sounded depressed.
“Can you get in touch with the professor?”
“No. I don’t know why.”
“It seems… the professor is in trouble, too,” Qin Chu analyzed.
“Do you need me to do something for you?”
“No. Be careful.”
“I will.”
Hanging up, Qin Chu slept in the study.
On the next morning when they had breakfast, they didn’t see Huo Mian.
“Chu, where’s Mian?” Qin Chu’s mother didn’t know they slept in separate rooms.
“She should be in the bedroom. I’ll go and check up on her.”
“The young madam went out in the morning,” a housemaid said.
“Where did she go?” Qin Chu was surprised.
“She didn’t say. I saw her go out dressed in a thick coat at a little past 5 AM; she hasn’t e back.”
Qin Chu dialed Huo Mian’s number and found it was powered off.
“What’s wrong with you two?” Realizing something was amiss, his mother asked.
“We argued last night.”
“Son, how could you argue with Mian? She’s just lost the baby… What’s wrong with you? You should be more considerate with her.” His mother scolded him.
His father said, “Chu, forget the breakfast. Go and find her. Maybe she went to Sky Blessing Court, Lingling’s, or Xiaowei’s.”
“She’s fine. Mian isn’t a willful person. She’s low in spirits and it will do her good to go out.”
“Son, what are you talking about? She’s your wife. How can you bear to see her in this state?”
His parents found his attitude toward Huo Mian quite weird.
Qin Chu didn’t say more about it. Finishing breakfast calmly, he drove the twins to school.
On the way, Little Bean began to plain, “Daddy, you seem very cold to Mommy.”
“No. I’m busy with the business in the pany.”
“Really? I hope you don’t have another woman.” Little Beans’ words made Qin Chu laugh.
“If I did, what would you do?”
“My sister and I will, of course, join hands and fight the other woman and protect our Mommy… Besides, Daddy, I trust your taste in women. No woman in the world is better than our mommy.”
“Yeah. In the world, no woman is better than your mommy.”
Qin Chu sighed lightly.
Dropping the kids into the school, Qin Chu returned to his car and got a call.
Seeing the number of the caller, Qin Chu activated the anti-surveillance device before answering the call.
“Oh? The result is out? Did you check it?”
“Yeah, President Qin. We checked it several times.”
“Very good. Stay put; wait for my instructions.”
“Yes, President Qin.”
Hanging up, Qin Chu felt relieved. He finally got his suspicion confirmed.
The snow in the northern city turned heavier; it could go on from early morning to evening.
Qin Chu looked up at the feathery snowflakes falling from the sky and said, “Mian, I know you’re guiding me from somewhere. I… won’t let you down.”
