The Domineering Love: The Little Wife of the Expensive CEO

Xiaowei was left speechless.

"As for you, you will probably take the opportunity to leave in a while, and then pretend to know nothing and act with them."

"They forced me to do it."

"Are you going to do this if they force you to?" She smiled bitterly and shook her head. "You hate people with connections because you believe in fairness? Not at all. You just don't have a vested interest. After I entered the company, I never hurt any of you. Targeting and hurting others for no reason is not only bad, but also stupid."

"Nie Zheng..."

"Go ahead." Nie Zheng waved at her. "Time is running out. How long do you think they will be patient enough to wait for you?"

Xiaowei finally showed a little shame on her face, but that shame did not make her hesitate. She still walked towards Rose and the others without looking back and met up with the other four interns.

Nie Zheng stood there alone, feeling a little lonely. She looked at Xiao Wei's receding back and suddenly missed Chong Jianzhi.

He slowly took out the compass from his pocket, which Richard had stuffed into his pocket early in the morning, and the spare map in his pocket.

In fact, she had already noticed that something was wrong with Xiaowei.

She just didn't want to assume the most malicious thoughts about others.

Unfortunately, she still got the worst result.

It was getting later and later. Nie Zheng was struggling to move forward in the rain. Suddenly, a beam of light shone from a distance. After the lightning, there was a deafening thunder. What she feared came true. She was already extremely tense. Every thunder struck her temple, almost making her collapse.

They had already reached the halfway point of the mountain, the steepest part. All the rocks on the road had been severely weathered, so she had to be extremely careful with every step she took.

The rain washed down the mud and rocks on the mountainside. Nie Zheng began to regret why she took this shortcut. After finally passing this dangerous mountain road, there was suddenly no road in front of her.

It was so unlucky. The continuous thunder and lightning just now cut down several trees one after another, directly blocking the road ahead.

It was impossible to move forward in this road condition. As it was getting darker, it was impossible to spend the night in the mountains. Nie Zheng could only go back, which would undoubtedly waste twice as much time.

Rose and the others had already arrived at the camp. Because they had wasted time scheming against Nie Zheng along the way, they were the last group to arrive.

The person in charge who had been waiting at the camp early in the morning discovered that one person was missing and immediately became nervous. He asked where Rose and several other interns had gone, and the answer he got was almost the same as what Nie Zheng had expected.

They blamed all the faults on the missing Nie Zheng, but they themselves were innocent for abandoning their teammates. It was simply ridiculous.

"The most important thing now is to find the person."

Before the person in charge finished speaking, the phone rang. His face changed suddenly when he saw the phone. The call was from the president's special assistant.

The weather was bad, and Richard noticed that Chong Jianzhi was absent-minded in the office, so he chose the right time and called Nie Zheng to ask her if she had arrived at the camp safely.

But Nie Zheng's phone kept showing no one was answering. Realizing that something was wrong, he immediately called the camp to ask about the interns' hiking progress.

"Everyone has done well." The person in charge avoided the main point and deliberately concealed the fact that one person was missing. "Well, well, they should all be back..."

"should?"

The person in charge broke out in a cold sweat at Richard's sudden serious tone.

"There's a group of interns... one is missing."

"Who's missing?"

"A girl from the R&D department..."

Hearing this, Richard's heart tightened: "Nie Zheng?"

"That's right..."

At half past seven in the evening, Chong Jianzhi was sitting at his desk in the camp leader's office. Opposite him were Zheng Yue, the person in charge of this training, and the person in charge of the expansion base.

His expression was extremely cold at this moment. He raised his fingers and tapped the corner of the table lightly, and said in a low but very intimidating voice: "Where did you take my people?"

The people present looked at each other in bewilderment before they realized the seriousness of the problem.

I originally thought that I just lost an intern, but I didn’t expect that this intern was actually from a prominent family. She was actually... Chong Jianzhi’s person.

"We are currently looking for him, but the rain is a bit heavy now, so it is difficult to find him. We have called a rescue team into the mountain, so it shouldn't be a big problem. Nothing has happened in Huangni Mountain over the years, so you can rest assured, Mr. Chong..."

"What is should?"

A surge of anger welled up in him. When it came to Nie Zheng, he always lost his mind easily. He had no place to vent his anger, so he waved his hand and pushed the vase of freshly trimmed flowers on the table down.

The sound of shattering glass spread throughout the office.

Those few seconds of silence were the most horrifying.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Mr. Chong... The rescue team is here. I'll go with them now and look for them together. We will definitely find the person for you!"

Several responsible persons stumbled out of the office, and Chong Jianzhi followed behind them, his heart beating faster than ever before.

At this time, the phone vibrated several times. He looked at it and was stunned for a few seconds before he realized that it was Nie Zheng calling. He almost trembled when he answered the phone. The voice on the other end was intermittent, and there was a "sizzling" sound from time to time.

From those few fragmented sentences, he learned that Nie Zheng was still safe for the time being. Because of a sudden thunderstorm, lightning broke down trees and blocked the road to the camp, so she had no choice but to return.

"Where are you now?"

"I--"

There was a burst of electric sound in his ears, and then the call was disconnected. When he called again, it showed that the phone was turned off.

Chong Jianzhi couldn't sit still any longer, so he stood up and walked out of the office. The rescue team had gathered outside and were getting ready to set off. He put on the raincoat that Richard had prepared for him, stood in the rain and looked up at the foggy sky.

"I'll go with you."

"Mr. Chong, the mountain road is winding and it's raining heavily, so don't go. We will notify you immediately as soon as we have any news, don't worry..."

"Don't make me say it a second time."

He took the rescue team member's backpack and put it on his back. He had participated in Ningjiang's Blue Sky Rescue Team during college and had some understanding of search and rescue activities.

The person trapped in the mountain was not someone else, but Nie Zheng. Every second of waiting was so painful, and sitting in the office waiting for news was more painful than killing him.

We went into the mountains with the rescue team and first followed the simplest route to the camp that was specified by the person in charge. There were many people walking on that road and the trees were not that dense. There was no situation at all, as Nie Zheng said on the phone, that the road was blocked by trees struck by lightning.

"Is there any other route that's shorter but less traveled?"

The rescuer took out a map and pointed to another route on it: "This one, but this route is a bit steep. We don't recommend hikers to take this route."

"Follow this road."

He knew Nie Zheng too well.

During the hike, he guessed that there was some conflict between the members of the group, and Nie Zheng must have been forced to leave the team. With her stubborn personality, she naturally refused to admit defeat, and must have tried her best to surpass the other members and arrive at the camp first.

So she chose the nearest route.
