If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 1623: Do You Know What a Ring Means (8)
Even Xiaofeng doesn’t know where he’s gone. Could something have really happened to him?!
Of course, she doesn’t want anything to happen to him. No matter what, she still wishes him well.
Thinking this way, she feels a bit uneasy, but she doesn’t know any of his friends.
She decides to go to his house and check things out first, no matter what.
Stepping into that villa area again, she sees that the area belonging to his house is pitch black, you couldn’t see your hand in front of your face.
No lights, no signs of people!
Xia Chuqing feels a pull at her heart and hurriedly runs outside the villa gate.
Dogs are intuitive creatures; she tries calling out "Guaigai," but there’s no response.
Where has he gone?!
"Guaigai!" "Xiao Mo!"
Still, there’s no response, just boundless darkness and endless silence.
Xia Chuqing becomes anxious. Although they fought fiercely and she didn’t want to see him again, she does not want anything to happen to him.
He’s so young; how could something happen to him?
Xia Chuqing fumbles her phone out of her pocket and quickly makes another call to Secretary Lin.
"Secretary Lin, do you know where General Manager Xiao has gone? I urgently need to find him." Xia Chuqing stamps her feet anxiously in place.
Secretary Lin looks bewildered: "I don’t know either. I’m no longer responsible for General Manager Xiao’s affairs. Isn’t that your responsibility now?"
"But General Manager Xiao didn’t tell me where he went..."
"Maybe he’s on a business trip? General Manager Xiao doesn’t like people asking about his personal schedule."
"I understand." Xia Chuqing realizes she won’t find out anything more from Secretary Lin.
No one knows where he has gone. Did he go home? Has he gone back to Qingyuan?
She suddenly thinks of Shen Chi; President Shen is resourceful and gets along well with General Manager Xiao. He surely knows.
She calls Xu Chaomu: "Sister Chaomu, Sister Chaomu!"
Xu Chaomu is at home teaching Xiaobao to memorize vocabulary when she suddenly receives a call from Xia Chuqing, feeling a bit surprised.
"Chuqing, what’s wrong?"
"Sister Chaomu, do you know... where General Manager Xiao is?"
"Xiao Mo? I don’t know. Are you looking for him?"
"Could you please let President Shen take the call?" Xia Chuqing asks anxiously.
Shen Chi is her boss, and she hasn’t really spoken to Shen Chi before.
"Sure, hold on a moment."
Xu Chaomu hands the phone to Shen Chi, who is working nearby, and whispers, "It’s Chuqing. She seems to be looking for Xiao Mo."
"Oh."
Shen Chi takes the phone: "What’s the matter?"
"President Shen, do you know where General Manager Xiao is? I... I have a proposal that needs his signature."
"It’s late. Let’s handle it another day."
"No, I can’t... that..."
"It’s nothing urgent," Shen Chi says indifferently.
"It’s not... President Shen, I haven’t seen General Manager Xiao for several days." Xia Chuqing says anxiously, "I can’t reach him by phone either."
"He might be on a business trip; he’s always like that."
"No, President Shen... it’s not..." Xia Chuqing is unsure if she should tell Shen Chi the truth, "I... I had a fight with him... and then he disappeared..."
Shen Chi even laughs: "He’s an adult."
Xia Chuqing really doesn’t know how to explain it to Shen Chi. In Shen Chi’s eyes, it seems like nothing happened.
But she has an uneasy feeling inside...
"President Shen..."
"Alright, let me help you look for him," Shen Chi says.
"Thank you, President Shen..."
"You’re welcome." Shen Chi hangs up the phone.
After hanging up, Xia Chuqing’s heart is still racing. When she left, she was so determined, but now, she’s very worried.
She’s seen Xiao Mo lose his mind, like that night when he drank himself into a stupor.
If he were to drink and drive, the consequences would be unimaginable.
But she believes Shen Chi, with his vast connections, can definitely find Xiao Mo quickly.
Probably, Shen Chi has also heard the rumors about her and Xiao Mo in the company.
Xia Chuqing’s mind is a bit of a mess. If something really happens to Xiao Mo, she won’t be able to forgive herself.
Thinking this way, she squats down at the entrance of his house, painfully clutching her hair.
Does she love him? If not, what is this heart-piercing feeling at this moment...
The north wind blows against her body, slowly she hugs herself.
How she got home that day, she doesn’t remember. She called out his name at the entrance for a long time, but no one answered.
Calling Guaigai, Guaigai does not respond either.
...
In those days, she was a bit distracted even while working, her mind not in the right place.
"Secretary Xia, there’s an error with the data in this report. Here, it’s 0.5%, not 0.05%. Be more careful when checking it." The head of the secretariat said with a stern face.
"Yes, I’ll correct it right away."
"It’s not just about correcting it. I found the mistake this time, but what if it hadn’t been found? Do you know how much loss that would bring to the company?"
"I understand."
"The internship lasts three months. After three months, there will be an assessment. Handle it yourself." The head of the secretariat tossed the documents to Xia Chuqing.
Holding a stack of documents, Xia Chuqing walked towards Xiao Mo’s office, feeling somewhat dejected.
She’s been working overtime continuously lately, and on top of that, she still hasn’t found Xiao Mo. She really can’t concentrate.
After bringing the documents back to her desk, she opens every one and checks line by line, afraid of making another mistake.
She wants to stay in the Shen Group; the salary is good, and it’s close to her father’s prison. She doesn’t want to leave.
Just as she’s buried in the pile of files diligently working, the office phone rings, and surprisingly, it’s a call from the CEO’s office!
"Hello, President Shen." Xia Chuqing carefully said.
"Come to my office," Shen Chi said in a deep tone.
"Okay, I’ll be there immediately."
Her first reaction is it’s about Xiao Mo.
As a newly arrived intern, if not for Xu Chaomu, she wouldn’t even have a chance to meet Shen Chi.
Now, Shen Chi is actively calling her.
As she goes upstairs, it’s indeed about Xiao Mo.
"When was the last time you saw Xiao Mo, what time, and where?" Shen Chi asked coldly, with a serious and deep expression.
Beside Shen Chi stands a middle-aged man, taking notes with a pen.
Xia Chuqing’s heart is pounding non-stop. Taking a deep breath, she recounts to Shen Chi everything that happened that day in detail.
Including her argument with Xiao Mo on the rainy night and her moving out of his house, she tells it all.
If this accurate information can help find Xiao Mo, she’s willing to share it.
Shen Chi’s expression doesn’t change, he just glances at the middle-aged man next to him, then says to Xia Chuqing, "This is Officer Tang."
Because he’s in plainclothes, Xia Chuqing didn’t recognize him at first.
Officer Tang’s expression is stern and unsmiling. He takes out his police badge and shows it briefly in front of Xia Chuqing.
Xia Chuqing feels a jolt, a bad premonition rising quickly and taking over her chest!
The police, why are the police here...
Does this mean that something really did happen to Xiao Mo?
