Substitute Bride Phoenix, The Tyrant's Pampered Demon Empress

“What is it?” The eldest son of the Xu family, Xu Qingjue asked.

“Sir, Lord Yu’s two servants request to see you. I hear that Lady Yu is missing.”

Yu Wuhen has no time to think about it and immediately walked out.

“Stop Lord Yu! The matter hasn’t been resolved and yet you want to run away? Fat chance!” Said Xu Qingjue in a shrill, commanding voice.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of men in black gathered and i it outside and surrounded Yu Wuhen.

Yu Wuhen got angry but he still managed to hold back his rage. He clenched his fists so tightly that blue veins were visible. His arms threw up and he knocked out three or four men in black.

He flew towards the railing and straight down.

“Ah! Hurry, come look! It’s Lord Yu!”

“Lord Yu’s martial arts skills are incredible!”

“If Lord Yu wasn’t disfigured, I’d really want to marry him!”

“Yeah! What a shame!”

…

Yu Wuhen ignored the worshipping sighs of the young women by the inn below, then took big strides towards the door. “Guiyi, Guier, how did Chuchu go missing?” He asked in a cold voice, whilst trying to forcibly remain calm.

“Ma… Madam said she had a stomachache, then went to the washroom and never returned. By the time we sensed that something was wrong, we discovered that… that Madam was gone.”

“What did I tell you guys before I left? You can’t even do something this little right? What use is there for me to keep you two on a payroll?” Yelled Yu Wuhen.

Guiyi and Guier immediately kneeled with one leg and bowed their heads in fear. “Forgive me milord, I was wrong!” They cried with self blame.

Yu Wuhen ignored Guiyi and Guier, then speed-walked right up to a white horse. He flew onto the white horse and rushed toward Lake Fanyan.

Guiyi and Guier kneeled at the entrance of the inn with their heads hung, afraid to move an inch.

But then, they heard Yu Wuhen’s last word before he left. “Get up. Right now, finding Chuchu is the most important thing. It won’t be too late to punish you both after we find Chuchu.”

Guiyi and Guier exchanged a look. Although the blame themselves a lot, they were determined to find Chu Qingchuan to make up for their wrongs.

Right then, they promptly flew onto their horses and caught up to Yu Wuhen.

The silhouette of Wuhen’s back was wide and tall. Although his gold mask covered most of his face, it didn’t dampen the charisma he exuded without hesitation.

In Guiyi and Guier’s eyes, there wasn’t a single man on earth as perfect as Yu Wuhen.

In a situation where a fistfight could clearly resolve an issue, he deliberately decides to use reasoning.

There just weren’t many good people like him in this world!

Fifteen minutes later, Yu Wuhen led dozens of men to search all around the area where Chu Qingchuan disappeared.

“Milord, I discovered a long trail of footprints here.”

Yu Wuhen rushed over to check and saw footprints in the wet ground. They were very clear, as if they were made not long ago.

They analyzed the size of the footprints, followed its tracks back and confirmed that they came from the washroom.

When Yu Wuhen confirmed that the footprints belonged to Chu Qingchuan, his hands instantly clenched tightly.

 Don’t tell me… Chuchu left on her own?

 Chuchu really didn’t like him. Was she all lovey-dovey for the past few days just to get a chance to get out of the castle and run away?

The light in Yu Wuhen’s eyes went out and a faint glimmer of tears appeared in his gloomy eyes.

 He tightly clenched his fists, then got up and walked towards the ravaged part of the forest.

Yu Wuhen moves his lips door a moment but only made his commands after a couple of seconds went by. “Go search for Chuchu in that direction and split up. Once you’ve found her, bring her back immediately.”

“Yes milord,” replied the men in black, before they promptly entered the forest and split up to find Chu Qingchuan.

Yu Wuhen flew rapidly in one direction, as worry had far overshadowed his anger deep down inside. He thought about how Chu Qingchuan could have been cut by the branches or come across a ferocious beast, all alone as she ran randomly all over the forest. Or maybe, she might have… Yu Wuhen’s heart felt like a raging storm with wild waves. There was no way he could calm down.

‘Chuchu, if you want to leave me, then I’ll allow it.

‘Whatever makes you happy.’
