Should Ye Lanchen plant a tracker on Chu Wuyou so that he could locate her wherever she went?
Anyway, where should he be looking for her right now?
"Check if Chu Wuyou has any property in Jin City." Ye Lanchen instructed through a speedy phone call.
As he did not want to restrict her freedom of movement, he never asked her about things she chose not to disclose. It suddenly occurred to him that he knew almost nothing about her personal life because of that.
He had employed people to investigate her background in Country M but he had not done the same in Jin City.
Perhaps it was time for him to take action.
Tang Zhixi leaped into Chu Wuyou's embrace as soon as the latter reappeared from the bathroom. She snuggled up against her Mommy to ensure the latter was not distracted by anything else.
Chu Wuyou was fully present in the moment. She reckoned that everything would be in good condition since Meng Ruoting was there to accompany Ye Lanchen. Right now, all she wanted to do was to fall asleep with her darling daughter in her arms.
Of course, she had not had a chance to look at her cell phone because Zhixi had glued herself to her Mommy throughout the entire night.
Chu Wuyou had no other alternative than to lie down in bed with the little girl. She fell asleep almost the same time as her daughter.
"Miss Chu doesn't have any property in Jin City." The person returned Ye Lanchen's call about an hour later.
"Check every hotel and motel for any record of her stay."
Chu Wuyou had not returned to his place nor Chu Residence, and she did not have any property under her name in Jin City. It was possible that she had gone to stay the night in a hotel.
Of course, he was reminded about the person that she had spoken to over a video call last night. However, he was reluctant to lean toward that probability.
"I checked every hotel, motel, and even some small-scale family motels yet there is no record of Miss Chu." Ye Lanchen received another call about three o'clock in the morning.
His chilly breath appeared exceptionally frightening under the dim light of the room.
She had not returned home nor had she returned to Chu Residence. She did not check in at any hotel either so where had she gone?
Chu Wuyou finally reached for her phone when she woke up the next morning. She assumed that her phone was probably off because of a flat battery. However, surprisingly, the cell phone turned on when she tried the home button. It appeared that its battery level was still at fifty percent.
She did not think about it too much because Zhixi woke up at the same time. The little girl kept asking for her attention hence Chu Wuyou simply cast her phone aside.
Chu Wuyou only acquired this phone number after returning to Jin City. Thinking it was only going to be a temporary number, she did not activate the function to be notified about missed calls. This explained why there was no alert to notify her about Ye Lanchen's calls after Zhixi turned off her phone last night. Naturally, she had no clue about what had happened.
Of course, she also did not learn about the phone call that was hung up by Zhixi.
It was natural that she thought everything was alright.
Her two darlings did not bring much with them when they returned from Country M hence she needed to do some shopping.
She wanted to seize this opportunity to purchase some essential items for them.
However, she had leapt out of the window last night out of desperation. She left in such a hurry that she forgot to bring her wallet.
Ye Lanchen usually left the house by eight o'clock in the morning. Therefore, Chu Wuyou decided that she could drop by the villa to pick up her wallet after he left for work. She thought that she should avoid bumping into another embarrassing situation like the one that happened yesterday morning.
Chu Wuyou hailed a taxi around ten o'clock to head back to the villa. She was positive that Ye Lanchen would not be home at this time.
She opened the door and headed to her room upstairs right away. When she was passing by Ye Lanchen's room, however, the door opened suddenly.
Before Chu Wuyou could react, the man grabbed her by the arm and pinned her down against the wall.
