Chapter 775 Search for Yuan Xi
Song Yunxuan had thought about all that might happen in the future.
There were always crises in Yuncheng.
Gu Changge had been dead, but there was still Song Yunxuan, Shao Tianze, and Gu Changle.
This place would never see peace as long as the feud among them still existed.
And for Gu Yi, staying here was the last thing he should do.
Song Yunxuan looked through the window at the glimmering stars, and presently she said, “Yi, maybe you should live abroad for some time.”
Gu Yi looked up at her, “When can I come back, then?”
Yuncheng, the place where he had been born and living ever since, had all those good memories…
There was his mother and Miaomiao.
He did not want to leave, but he got no choice. Gu Changle had decided to kill him.
There was nothing he could do to change all this crap.
That was why she must send him away.
He should leave Yuncheng, so he might not get more hurt from the coming new round of conflict.
“I will come back someday, right?”
“Sure. We will have you back when it’s all done.”
Song Yunxuan caressed his head gently.
Gu Yi got a lot of questions.
But he knew in his heart somehow that it was better not to ask.
He frowned and turned away, staring at the stars in the quiet sky.
So did Song Yunxuan.
Sometimes you got to admit that nothing was perfect.
But hurting each other never ended.
To protect yourself, you had to do your best to prevent any harm.
For example, you should knock your enemies down in advance.
Then he wouldn’t be able to hurt you.
“I will make arrangements tomorrow for you to be sent to the Natherlands.”
Gu Yi nodded, staring outside the window. He asked painfully, “Have you seen Miaomiao’s body?”
“Yes.”
“So, is it…”
He wanted to ask more about the details.
He wondered if her body had been that miserable like the photos Yuan Xi had shown to him the other day.
Or, at least let him know where her grave was.
He wanted to see her before leaving.
And he wanted to tell her that he would give anything on earth to avenge her death.
Speaking of her, however, he could not hold back his tears.
He simply bent his head.
Tears flowed out of his eyes drop by drop.
He felt like gulped, and no words came.
“I know what you want to say and how you feel. But she is gone, and you have to live on with it. Maybe Miaomiao is looking at you from heaven. She must want you to be safe, right?”
“Yes, I know.” He nodded.
He understood everything,
But he could not control himself.
The feeling of grief just kept coming to him.
Trying to console him, Song Yunxuan threw her arms around him and said gently, “Don’t worry. Time will soothe your sorrows. Just carry on, man, and someday you will find that many things are changed.”
It could become better, or worse.
Either way, you must cope with it as long as you were still alive.
If people even didn’t have the courage to confront difficulties, life would be pointless…
…
Ding Tong stayed awake all night.
The next morning she still got nothing from her men.
Impatiently, she called Shao Tianze.
Shao Tianze, however, just smiled and said, “Miss Ding, we are no less worried about Mr. Yuan than you.”
Ding Tong got pissed off by his being hypocritical. “Worried? You would have done something if you are truly worried!”
“What do you want us to do, then?”
“At least track down Song Yunxuan to find out if Yuan Xi is in Yuncheng, or send your men to search for clues!”
“Well, you would not have called me if Mr. Yuan is still in Harbor City.”
He went straight.
He was right. Ding Tong would have gone immediately to check out if she got any clue about him in Harbor City.
But her searching was fruitless,
Not to mention any clue.
She gnashed her teeth, “Song Yunxuan must have brought him somewhere else. Right, Yuncheng! Go and search if there is any information!”
“We will inform you instantly if we get anything.” Shao Tianze answered calmly.
Meanwhile, Gu Changle, who was sipping her tea, lifted the corners of her mouth into a mocking smile.
How foolish Ding Tong was! She should rely on them, the Shao Family.
She hoped they could look for Yuan Xi.
They would have done it if they wanted to. How was it possible that they should have waited for a whole night,
While doing nothing?
“Calm down, Miss Ding. Why don’t you just contact Song Yunxuan since you suspect her.”
Song Yunxuan was the only one who could give her an answer.
She frowned at the sarcastic tone in Gu Changle’s voice. She said, “So you are not gonna help, aren’t you?”
“We have been already looking for him in Yuncheng.”
Shao Tianze replied, yet insincerely.
Ding Tong could not be fooled by that. She changed the subject, “You probably forgot that Yuan Xi was to help you. You should be such a sarcastic b*tch and do nothing for him.”
“No, I have never forgotten about that.” He answered.
What he also remembered was his unreasonable requests and offensive purposes.
What Yuan Xi wanted was the entire Shao Family.
That meant he was actually helping himself.
Since Yuan Xi had such intentions,
Their refusal seemed understandable when Yuan Xi was missing.
Yuan Xi would finally become their enemy anyway.
They did not see that there was any downside of Yuan Xi being eliminated by Song Yunxuan.
What was more, Yuan Xi’s identity remained a mystery.
No one knew if their crisis would be solved, even if Yuan Xi did help.
Ding Tong listened to him quietly.
Finally, she said with eyes slit, “Now you can say that. But if you do not help me look for him, you will be over soon.”
“Well, we will handle it.”
A relaxed smile showed on the face of Gu Changle.
“Maybe you do not care right now because you’ve forgotten that the Yuan Family is not your only enemy. If we are over, Song Yunxuan will spank your ass raw. When that day comes, believe me, you shall never expect any help.”
Ding Tong hung up abruptly after saying all this.
Shao Tianze slit his eyes at her words.
Gu Changle didn’t care about her words. “Forget about what she said. That woman is nobody without Yuan Xi.”
“But what she said made sense.”
“Surely it did, but it does not matter no matter what we do. I mean, Song Yunxuan must have been fully prepared if it was her who did it. That means we will not find Yuan Xi anyway.”
“I know, but I still think we should do something. Why not go to Harbor City to check out?”
“Ding Tong is a hot-tempered b*tch, and she is pissed off right now. She would probably kidnap you and trade you for Yuan Xi.”
“Me?”
Shao Tianze pondered.
Gu Changle added, “If what she said is true, and Song Yunxuan is Gu Changge, I can understand why Song Yunxuan did this.”
There was silence.
Gu Changle continued, “Remember, Tianze, her revenge is finally on us.”
It was they who killed Gu Changge.
If Gu Changge were still alive and got a new name, she would not let them get away with it.
Shao Tianze clenched his hands tightly,
Until knuckles whitened.
“We can help, but that depends. Now just let Ding Tong deal with it by herself.”
She tried to persuade him.
“Yuan Xi was here as an ally, and he is the last hope we get. If we leave him to die in danger, it will be harder for us to find a substitute.”
Nobody would be willing to help one that only knew how to take but never give.
Their refusal to help would cause a more severe credibility crisis.
At that, Gu Changle hesitated, and then she said, “Well. If you think it is necessary, go then.”
“OK, I will start right away.”
Gu Changle shook her head, “If I’d known you were going to Harbor City, I wouldn’t have hurried to you overnight.”
“I need you to manage the business in Yuncheng during my absence,” Tianze said.
Gu Changle cheered up at his words.
Temporarily, she could take his placeto manage the businessin the Shao enterprise.
It was very tempting for her.
Gu Yi would never come back again, which meant she could get anything she wanted from the Shao Family with or without her child.
If he got no time and energy to manage the Shao enterprise,
She could help.
“If Gu Changge could do it, I could, too.” thought Gu Changle.
Shao Tianze told his assistance to book a flight ticket to Harbor City immediately.
On the way to the airport, he called Ding Tong.
When hearing him saying that he would help to look for Yuan Xi,
She sneered, “Oh yeah? What has changed your mind?”
“I told you we have looked for him in Yuncheng, but we got nothing. I figured that I have to meet you in Harbor City.”
He knew that Ding Tong would never leave Harbor City, the place where Yuan Xi had gone missing.
So, he got to come to her by himself if he wanted to meet her.
