His expression was calm as if he was not interested in chatting with Ye Lan and the others. Ye Wangchuan would look up at the entrance from time to time as if he was waiting for someone.

Then, he saw Gu San rushing in.

Ye Wangchuan narrowed his eyes and said to Ye Lan, who was still chatting with someone, “Aunt, take your time. I have something on. I’ll leave first.”

Ye Lan stopped talking to Wen Ruxia and the others and quickly asked him, “Nian Nian isn’t here yet?”

“Mm.” Ye Wangchuan also felt that it had taken a long time, far longer than the 10 minutes Qiao Nian had promised. He had always been calm and collected. Even if he was worried, one couldn’t tell anything from his expression. “I’ll go out and take a look.”

Ye Lan did not notice anything amiss. She just thought that Qiao Nian was stuck in a traffic jam.

She reminded him worriedly, “Let me know when she arrives. I’ll come out and receive her.”

“Okay.”

The young man agreed readily and concisely. He raised his eyelids and looked at Ye Lan, then nodded at Wen Ruxia and the others and said politely, “Aunt, Aunt Wen, you guys continue chatting.”

Wen Ruxia nodded. As she watched him walk away, she could not help but sigh for her silly nephew as she said a silent prayer.

Tsk, look at his bearing and demeanor.

Even if Wen Ziyu flattered her for ten years, he might not be able to match up to that girl Nian Nian. That kid had met such a love rival and lost without any chance of turning things around!

How tragic!

This was truly bad luck.

She could only say that that kid’s taste was too good. Falling in love at first sight with Qiao Nian could only mean a tragedy for himself.

…

“Master Wang.”

Gu San walked over and called out uneasily.

Ye Wangchuan had a bad feeling, but he remained calm. He asked in a low voice, “What’s going on? She’s not here yet?”

“No.” Gu San shook his head with a wooden face. He didn’t look very smart. He looked up and said anxiously, “Master Wang, I listened to you and waited for Miss Qiao outside. I couldn’t wait any longer, so I called Miss Qiao, but she didn’t answer.

“…Do you think something happened to Miss Qiao?”

Gu San really did not want to say that, but he was also worried about Qiao Nian. “I called three times, but Miss Qiao did not answer.”

Qiao Nian wasn’t someone who would miss calls.

Ye Wangchuan’s eyes darkened. He took out his cell phone and asked someone to check while asking Gu San, “Are you sure she didn’t answer your three calls?”

Gu San shook his head and said with a serious expression, “No.”

Coincidentally, Qin Si, Zhang Yang, and the others had not arrived yet.

Ye Wangchuan called Qin Si, and the call was picked up instantly.

“Hello, Master Wang, we’ll be there soon!” Qin Si’s voice was loud and clear.

Ye Wangchuan’s eyes were half-closed. No one could tell what he was feeling from his eyes. His white shirt was stretched neatly by him, and there were no creases at the collar. He looked outstanding. His voice was low as he said, “Check Qiao Nian’s cell phone location. Be quick.”

“Uh, why are you checking Sister Qiao’s phone?” Qin Si nagged.

Ye Wangchuan had already hung up on him. He pulled out his contact list and called the traffic department. “Please help me check on someone.”

…

It was only a matter of a few words for Ye Wangchuan to investigate someone in Beijing.

The accident at the intersection not far from the Imperial Mansion was so huge, and the trajectory of the truck was so strange.

He didn’t have to wait more than a few minutes for someone to call back.
