Chapter 747 - Rushing Home Without a Care
Chapter 747: Rushing Home Without a Care
“I’m abroad. What can I do for you?”
Fu Tingyu was standing at the glass wall overlooking the entire bustling city of North Star.
But he was, in fact, terribly worried about the disappearance of Qin Shu, who left without a word. She did not even leave an angry note.
“Nothing much. I’ve been in Hua Xia for quite a while and am traveling around now. Let’s gather our band of brothers and visit Qi Mountain.”
“I’m tied up now. If you’re free, you can visit Han Xiao and the others at Qi Hua.”
“Han Xiao…” Master Feng recalled a face in his mind. “You mean Ling Han?”
“Yes.”
“You met them? How about Ling Bao, the Little Munchkin?”
“I’ll explain to you about her next time.”
Fu Tingyu continued staring at the bustling city through the glass wall, his lips pursed into a thin line.
Shi Yan strode into the room, “Sir, the earliest flight is at nine tomorrow night.”
Fu Tingyu frowned after hearing Shi Yan’s update. The chill emitted from his body could freeze the entire room.
Shi Yan stood at the side, not daring to make a sound. Silence from Fu Tingyu was even more terrifying compared to his anger.
Madam ran away from home suddenly after they went through so much together. Running away from home should be the correct word to describe her action.
Judging from Fu Tingyu’s facial expression, the issue they were facing this time should be deadly.
Fu Tingyu stood facing the glass wall the entire night like a statue, the same way he did on the rooftop of Qi Mountain.
Shi Yan continued to wait on him like how he usually did, having no idea what was in the mind of Fu Tingyu. In the past, he would usually get furious when he heard of Qin Shu’s disappearance. But he was unusually calm this time.
The sun rose from the horizon, sending a ray of light on the charming, flawless face of Fu Tingyu. The long lashes of his eyes moved.
With his lips still pursed, he softly asked, “What time is it?”
Shi Yan checked the time on his watch and replied, ” Half-past six in the morning.”
Fu Tingyu pursed his lips tight and continued to stand in silence.
Another hour passed by in silence until his mobile phone rang.
Fu Tingyu moved towards his work desk and reached for his mobile phone. The spark of hope in his eyes immediately darkened when he saw the caller ID on the mobile phone.
Yan Shuang’s voice reached his ear once he answered the call, “Senior, do you want to join me in checking the progress after breakfast?”
“I’ve booked the earliest flight back to Hua Xia. Let’s put the matter here on hold for now.”
Surprised at the news of Fu Tingyu leaving, Yang Shuang asked, “We’ve just started, and you want to put it on hold? Don’t you think that your decision is too hasty?”
“I have something urgent matter in hand. That would be all for now.”
Fu Tingyu hung up on Yan Shuang and walked out of the room with his mobile phone when he noticed he had little time left.
His sudden decision caught Yan Shuang was dumbfounded. What he did was totally unlike the Fu Tingyu she knew.
She suddenly recalled the messages from the handsome young man. Did Fu Tingyu rush back to Hua Xia for him?
Fu Tingyu rushed back to Bright Garden once he landed in Jiangcheng of Hua Xia. He went straight to the master bedroom on the second floor.
All the others remained standing in the living room. None of them dared to say a word.
Ye Luo watched Fu Tingyu go up to the second floor from the side.
Ning Meng, who stood hidden behind him, seemed upset. She was worried for Qin Shu, who was pregnant with a child.
Shi Yan, who followed Fu Tingyu closely from behind, entered the house to see the group of people awkwardly standing around the living room. His sight immediately fell on Ye Luo and walked towards him.
“What happened? Why did she suddenly run away?”
Ye Luo said nothing. He turned to look at Ning Meng, gesturing Shi Yan to ask her.
“Ning Meng, what happened? Did Madam come in contact with anyone?”
The intimacy and love between their Sir and Madam had been overflowing these days. Their affections towards each other were sweeter than those couples who were living in love bubbles. It was no wonder Shi Yan suspected someone influenced Qin Shu to leave their Sir.
He suspected that someone had told Qin Shu something about Fu Tingyu.
“I have no idea. Madam never left Bright Garden after Sir left. Two days ago, Madam seemed unhappy out of a sudden and ate little for dinner. Her mood worsened the next day, and she ate nothing for lunch. She refused food no matter what I said to her. When I knocked on her door the next day, she did not answer the door.”
Tears streamed down her eyes for being too worried about Qin Shu.
Shi Yan heaved a sigh. “I seriously have no idea what she had in her mind. How could she leave just like that? Does she not worry about the wrath from Sir?”
Ye Luo chipped in, “She took Boss with her.” His face was with no emotion at all.
“What? She brought her pet with her?”
On the second floor, Fu Tingyu pushed the door of the master room open. The silence enveloping the room was alarming. His sight swept around the room as he strode in. It looked the same as when he left. The only difference was her presence in the room.
Life seemed to have seeped away from the room. And from the entire Bright Garden too.
He stood still for a moment in the center of the room before he walked towards the wardrobe. All the garments and attires were still in the room, including those casual home clothes.
He walked out of the wardrobe and strode into the small study room.
He had purposely designed and decorated the study room for her and had hand-picked every single piece of furnishing inside the room personally.
Nothing seemed out of place in the study room. The bookmarks in the books, textbooks, and even the laptop remained where they were supposed to be.
But he had an outstandingly excellent memory. He noticed the missing backpack of hers, as well as the slim notebook computer.
She only took these with her.
Two days had passed, and no one found any traces of her. She had proven the excellence of her skills in disguise.
It would be even more difficult for him to find her now.
Still, he sent out everyone he could to search for her and had ordered that they had to find her.
He would find her, even if it meant he had to go to the far corners of the earth to do it.
After a long hesitation, Shi Yan went to the second floor and into the master bedroom. He found Fu Tingyu in the study.
“Sir, Madam met no one for the past few days. Ning Meng noticed the change in her behavior two days ago. She was emotionally unstable and refused to eat. She found Madam missing when she knocked at the door yesterday morning and got no answers from the room.” Shi Yan carefully reported what he found out from the staff around the house.
Fu Tingyu raised his eyes to look at Shi Yan. He had already noticed that she wasn’t herself two days ago when she asked him the question when they talked over the phone.
He regretted not answering her question. He would answer questions of hers had he known that she would run away because of that.
“Ye Luo said that Boss went missing too. I guess she took him with her.” Shi Yan continued.
It was understandable that she took her pet along, and Boss was as smart as he was adorable.
But he was envious of a cat because she took the cat with her. His place in her heart was even lower than a pet cat.
Fu Tingyu was still unsure whether she had regained her memories. If she did regain her memory, who would be the first person she would want to see? Could it be Han Xiao?
“Send a few men over to Qi Hua to keep an eye on Han Xiao. She might have gone looking for Han Xiao.” Fu Tingyu immediately ordered when this possibility came to his mind.
