The boss is chasing after the chaebol’s ex-wife, but you can’t afford it

Going out and looking around aimlessly like a headless fly was not a solution. Shen Jingjue decided to ask Tang Qiaoer not to stand in the cold wind, but to go back to the villa to warm up first. He mobilized his men and contacted Huo Ruxi to send someone to look for it together.

The two sat side by side on the sofa.

This time it was different, they were very close, not even a person's distance between them. It was like they were magnets that attracted each other, naturally moving closer, and it was unclear who approached whom first.

But now, Tang Qiaoer had no mood for romance. She curled up on the sofa with her arms around her shoulders. She didn't even take off her cold down jacket, and her whole body was filled with coldness.

She listened silently to Shen Jingjue making phone calls beside her, deploying work, and arranging people to search.

Be calm, collected and methodical.

If it were in the past, with him around, she would definitely be able to calm down.

But this time, her mind was in a mess, her heart felt like it was being torn madly by countless sharp claws, severe pain spread throughout her cold body, and the suppressed emotions made it almost impossible for her to breathe.

"Madam, take off your clothes quickly. You will catch a cold if you keep wearing them!"

Aunt Wu hurriedly brought a cup of hot tea over and held it in front of Tang Qiaoer with both hands, "Drink it while it's hot to warm your body."

Tang Qiaoer pursed her lips, "I'm fine, give it to Mr. Shen."

"He's a tough guy. He rolled around in the snow when he was a kid and swam in the army lake in winter. You don't need to think about him anymore!"

Shen Jingjue was talking to Huo Ruxi on the phone. Hearing this, he glanced at Tang Qiaoer.

The little woman's clear and white face was pale. Even though it was obvious that she was trying her best to control her emotions, her body wrapped in a snow-white down jacket was still trembling slightly.

Like a figure carved out of snow and jade, it will fall apart at the slightest breeze.

After the call ended, Shen Jing felt that the voice was a little warmer, "Ruxi is coming this way, don't worry. Miss Shu is blessed by heaven."

"Thank you, Mr. Shen." Tang Qiaoer handed him the cup with both hands.

"Need not."

Shen Jingjue lowered his eyelashes and saw that her originally flawless white jade hands still had traces of frostbite. His heart tightened inch by inch. The sour and bitter emotion seemed to be tearing his heart apart from the inside out, and the pain became more and more obvious.

He pursed his thin lips and wanted to ask her, does the wound still hurt?

But Tang Qiaoer got there first and asked, "Ruxi, are you coming over now?"

"Yeah." He nodded.

"Where's Chulu? Is it okay without someone to accompany you?"

"Chulu is not a child anymore. After going through so much, she has become more and more independent and strong. And with Secretary Ding watching over her, it's okay."

Shen Jingjue frowned and reached out to unzip her down jacket. "It's hot in the room. You'll catch a cold if you wrap yourself in cold clothes."

Tang Qiaoer's long eyelashes drooped down gently. She was thinking about many things in her mind and looked a little dull.

With her clothes open, her soft and delicate body, wearing only a white silk nightgown, suddenly jumped out, and her whiteness was dazzling in the dark night.

The black algae-like hair half-covers the spring beauty on the chest, seemingly revealing but not revealing, with a kind of pure desire, which makes it more romantic.

Shen Jing felt his spine stiffen and his Adam's apple rolled.

Tang Qiaoer then realized that she was only wearing a thin nightgown underneath. She quickly held up her collar and lowered her eyelids shyly.

They were clearly husband and wife, and clearly were lovers who were deeply integrated into each other and were the most intimate.

But that heart-pounding feeling was as if they were both inexperienced men and women, just beginning to fall in love.

Wu Ma was very tactful and had left quietly long ago.

"What did Shu Yan say when she talked to you for the last time?" Shen Jingjue tried to calm his surging emotions, his voice sounding a little hoarse.

"I didn't say anything... I guess I didn't have time."

Tang Qiaoer felt a chill in her bones when she recalled the loud noise. Her lips turned pale. "Her phone seemed to have fallen somewhere. I heard a lot of noises similar to rolling, and then the call was disconnected. That's all I know."

"Now, it's almost dawn, she's alone outside in the early morning, and she suddenly calls you. Why?"

Shen Jingjue's brows furrowed. He always considered the motive, the key to the problem. "If she was in danger, she could have called the police first. Or called your fourth brother and seventh brother. Why did she call you first?"

Tang Qiaoer pursed her lips to form a pale blue line and was silent and thoughtful.

This is also what she was thinking about.

"Her motive is very important. Only when we know why she did this can we infer where she went and what happened based on her actions."

Shen Jingjue's voice darkened. "Now, the police may not accept the report because it takes 48 hours to report a missing person. But we need the police's help now. Miss Tang, you need to contact your seventh brother immediately and ask him to check the surveillance cameras along the way to confirm Shu Yan's whereabouts."

"Shu Yan... maybe she had something important to tell me. But she ran into danger before she could."

Tang Qiaoer put her five fingers into her hair and grabbed it tightly, her breathing was not smooth. "She is skilled, and ordinary criminals can't stand her. The other party may have a gun in his hand, and forced her to drop her phone, which means they have firepower, complex forces, and more than one person.

Maybe she was being watched as soon as she left home. No...she had been watched a long time ago! The other party was just waiting for an opportunity to strike!"

"Xie Jinhuan and Tan Le are both destroyed. Who else wants to touch her?"

Shen Jingjue suddenly had an epiphany, his eyes widened, "Shen Jingzhe, is that Mu Xurou?"

Thinking about tonight, Shen Jingzhe didn't sleep and sat in the living room.

He must have been waiting there on purpose, or even provoking him secretly!

"They are the only ones left. I can't imagine anyone else having a grudge against Shu Yan."

Tang Qiaoer was so nervous that her throat tightened and her voice trembled slightly, "Shu Yan has followed Xie Jinhuan for many years and should have gone to Country M more than once to see Mr. Shen Jingzhe.

Shen Jingzhe would definitely not meet anyone except Xie Jinhuan, but how could he not leave any clues after so many contacts? Shu Yan must have realized that Shen Jingzhe was the master, and Shen Jingzhe also recognized Shu Yan after the plastic surgery. "

"So, just in case, he wanted to get rid of Shu Yan and silence her." Shen Jingjue's starry eyes dimmed.

Tang Qiaoer's eyes were red, tears trembling on her eyelashes, "But we have seen through his true face and suspected that he had done those dirty things, why did he still want to attack Shu Yan?!"

Shen Jingjue's eyes were stern, "Because your fourth brother loves Shu Yan deeply, and she has now completely integrated into the Tang family and has become your relative."

Tang Qiaoer was shocked.

"Not only does he want to silence you, he also wants to use this to control Fourth Brother and you."

Shen Jingjue hadn't laughed for a long time. At this moment, he laughed out of anger. "This is indeed my elder brother's style. At the beginning, he used his identity as a lifesaver to morally blackmail me for twenty years. Now, he wants to hold on to others' weaknesses and continue to do the same. After all, this is a tried and tested method."

Tang Qiaoer was anxious and grabbed the man's big hand, "But... at least there is still a glimmer of hope, right? If Shu Yan is useful to them, they shouldn't hurt her!"

Her little hands were soft and tender, yet icy and cold.

Shen Jingjue subconsciously tightened his five fingers and held her hand.

Suddenly, the phone rang.

Tang Qiaoer picked it up and looked at the screen. Suddenly her heart sank and then sank.

"Who's calling?" Shen Jingjue looked at her deeply.

"Fourth brother..." Tang Qiaoer was about to cry.

The man lowered his eyes and said, "Take it. This matter is very serious and cannot be concealed. You know it better than I do."

Tang Qiaoer rubbed her eyes and answered the phone tremblingly:

"Fourth brother..."

"Qiaoqiao, why did you drive out alone in the middle of the night? I called her but couldn't get through. Can you contact her?!" Bai Jinfei has always been a man who can remain calm even if the sky falls. But at this moment, he was so anxious that his throat was burning with anger because he couldn't contact Shu Yan.

"Fourth brother, how do you know that my sister-in-law is out?"

"I have set the location on her car. If she leaves Haimen, I will immediately alert her!"

Bai Jinfei felt something was wrong and said in a more urgent voice, "I saw her car heading to Shengjing, towards Huanshan. What was she doing there?!"

Surrounding the mountains?

The former Shen couple looked at each other tacitly and said in unison:

"Qian Qiu Sui?!"

……

After Shu Yan was knocked unconscious, she was carried into a car by two of her men and left first.

Mu Xueruo got into her luxurious Bentley, which was warmed by the warm air. She sat in the car and kept wiping the blood between her fingers with disinfectant wipes.

"Damn, it's so dirty, it's really unlucky!"

In the cold winter, the nights are especially long.

The Bentley drove in the thick night for an unknown period of time, and suddenly it braked suddenly, causing the car to shake violently!

"what--!"

Mu Xueruo screamed and bounced out, hitting her forehead on the back of the front seat. Her nose was sore and painful that tears came out.

"Do you want to die?!" she yelled angrily.

The subordinate apologized repeatedly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry Miss Mu..."

"what happened?!"

"There's a car ahead, don't let it hit our car!"

Mu Xueruo rubbed her nose, looked ahead in annoyance, and was suddenly startled.

Under the cold white light of the headlights, Li Huan opened the door and got out of the car. With a cold expression, he walked step by step to the front of the car.
