Lin Xi seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she quickly said, "Okay, I've sent you the address."

Ye Ziyuan said gently, with a comforting smile on her face: "Don't worry too much, I'll call my brother right now and ask him to come over quickly. You should also take care of yourself over there, and don't worry yourself into illness."

Lin Xi said gratefully, her eyes moistened: "Okay, thank you, Ziyuan."

Ye Ziyuan said softly, her eyes becoming a little distant: "What are you thanking me for? Shen Jingyan and I have been good friends since we were young. Now that she is missing, I am naturally very worried. I am also very relieved that Jingyan has a friend like you who truly cares about her."

Lin Xi said anxiously. She paced around the room in a hurry. "Well, I won't keep you any longer. Hurry up and call your brother over. Let's go find her together."

Ye Ziyuan responded: "Okay, take care of yourself!"

After hanging up the phone, Ye Ziyuan did not dare to delay and immediately called her brother Ye Chen.

After the phone rang a few times, Ye Chen answered the phone.

Ye Ziyuan sat in a slightly dim office, with only a desk lamp emitting a dim light. She looked out the window at the dark night sky, with a few dim stars looming, as if foreshadowing something bad. She said anxiously, "Brother, I need your help urgently. Shen Jingyan disappeared in Jeju Island, and Lin Xi, who worked with her, is very worried about her. Can you go to Jeju Island to help find her?"

Ye Chen was standing on his balcony at this time, the cool night breeze blew past, ruffling his hair. The lights of the city in the distance were flickering, prosperous yet somewhat indifferent. His voice was steady and calm: "Don't panic, tell me the details."

Ye Ziyuan said quickly, "Lin Xi said Shen Jingyan is very regular and won't go out after 11 o'clock, but now it's past one o'clock and she hasn't returned to the hotel yet, and the phone can't be reached. Brother, I'm really worried about her, you must rush over as soon as possible."

Ye Chen frowned and said seriously: "Okay, I got it. I'm going to Jeju Island now. Don't worry too much, I will try my best to find her. If you have any new news or Shen Jingyan contacts you, tell me immediately."

Ye Ziyuan said in a crying voice: "Brother, you must find her, she is my best friend. I wish I could fly over right now, but I can't leave here." The old fan in the office was creaking overhead, as if adding a touch of anxiety to the tense atmosphere.

Ye Chen comforted her, "Don't worry, I will do my best. I'm going to the airport now, and I will keep in touch with you when I arrive in Jeju Island."

Ye Ziyuan said gratefully: "Thank you, brother. I'll wait for your good news."

After Ye Chen hung up the phone, he quickly packed some simple luggage. The room was in a mess, with clothes and documents scattered around. He quickly sorted out his things in the mess, and then hurried out to the airport.

The voice-controlled lights in the corridor lit up and went off one by one with his hurried footsteps.

When Ye Chen arrived at the airport, the waiting hall was bustling with people and noisy.

Finally boarding the plane, Ye Chen sat in a window seat. He leaned forward and looked at the flashing lights on the runway outside the window, which flickered in the darkness.

At the same time, in the hotel on Jeju Island, Lin Xi was on pins and needles in the room. She walked back and forth in the room, her steps were a little messy, and every step was filled with deep anxiety. From time to time, she walked to the window, propped her hands on the windowsill, and stared at the quiet street outside. The street lights cast a dim light, which was a little hazy, as if covered with a layer of gauze. Occasionally, a car sped past, and the roar of the engine seemed particularly harsh in the silent night, and she would be frightened and her shoulders would tremble. She picked up the phone again, and with some trembling fingers, she kept dialing Shen Jingyan's number on the screen, but there was still no one answering the call. The cold prompt tone seemed to ruthlessly declare that her efforts were in vain. Every time she heard the prompt tone that no one answered the call, she would close her eyes painfully, and then slump weakly in the chair by the window.

A few hours later, Ye Chen arrived at Jeju Island Airport. He dragged his suitcase and felt the damp wind blowing from the seaside as soon as he left the airport. The wind blew in his face with the unique smell of the ocean, which instantly sobered up his brain, which was originally a little confused due to the journey. He contacted Lin Xi immediately.

"Lin Xi, I'm in Jeju Island. Are you in the hotel room now? I'll be there soon." While talking on the phone, he quickened his pace and walked out of the airport.

"Yes, I'm here, Mr. Ye. Thank you so much for coming here so quickly." Lin Xi's voice was choked with sobs. The worry and helplessness she had felt for so long seemed to have found an outlet at this moment. She held the phone in one hand and wiped away her tears with the other.

Ye Chen came to the hotel room, and the room was filled with a faint atmosphere of worry. Lin Xi came up to him with a haggard face, her eyes were a little red and swollen, obviously because of long-term worry and lack of rest. Her hair was also a little messy, with a few strands of hair hanging in front of her forehead, and she looked very tired. Her hands were twisted together nervously, rubbing constantly.

Ye Chen looked around and asked, "When was the last time you saw Shen Jingyan?" He scanned every corner of the room with sharp eyes, as if trying to find some clues here.

Lin Xi frowned and recalled, "We were still discussing the contract yesterday afternoon, and then she said she had to go out for something." As she spoke, she tapped her head lightly with her hand, trying hard to recall more details. "I didn't ask much at the time, and who knew that there would be no news from her after she left." Her voice became lower and lower, and finally became almost a murmur, and tears welled up in her eyes again.

Ye Chen nodded and said calmly: "Then let's go to the hotel front desk and ask if there are any clues." As he said that, he strode out the door, and Lin Xi hurriedly followed behind him.

They came to the hotel front desk, where the lights were a bit dazzling. Ye Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, leaned forward with his hands on the table, and said to the front desk staff: "Hello, we have a friend staying in your hotel, she is missing, we want to ask if you have seen her go out or anything unusual?" He spoke a little fast, with an anxious tone.

The front desk staff said apologetically: "We're sorry, we didn't pay special attention to this guest's situation." As the staff spoke, he shrugged helplessly.

Ye Chen frowned, scratched his hair in annoyance, thought for a moment and said, "Then please pull up the surveillance video for us to see." His eyes were fixed on the staff, with unquestionable determination in his eyes.

In the presidential suite of the luxurious hotel, the dazzling crystal chandelier cast a soft light, but it could not dispel the invisible haze in the room. Lin Qianhan frowned and paced back and forth in the living room covered with soft carpets, his face full of annoyance: "I didn't expect Jiang Xiyan to be rescued. This is really a big trouble."

Outside the French window is the bustling night scene of the city. The busy streets form a sharp contrast with the tense atmosphere in the hotel. Li Huan stood aside, the light and shadow of the neon lights outside the window flickered on his face, making him look a little gloomy. He sighed and said, "Yes, Mr. Lin. What should we do? If he comes back to investigate, our affairs will definitely be exposed."

Lin Qianhan stopped and looked at Li Huan with a cold gaze. Under the bright but cold light, his eyes were like a poisonous snake in the dark. "We must find a way to cover up our crimes. Go and get rid of those killers. Don't let them have the chance to betray us."

Li Huan said hesitantly: "But Mr. Lin, wouldn't it be too risky to get rid of them directly? What if it attracts the attention of the police..." At this time, people's laughter and chatter could be heard faintly from the hotel corridor, which was inconsistent with the tense and depressing atmosphere in the room.

Lin Qianhan interrupted him impatiently: "We can't care so much now. If we don't get rid of them, we will be in greater danger. We still have to continue looking for opportunities to get rid of Jiang Xiyan. We can't let him have a chance to breathe."

Li Huan gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it right away. So how are we going to deal with Jiang Xiyan later?"

Lin Qianhan pondered for a moment and said, "We can start with his company and create more trouble for him so that he has no time to take care of other things. At the same time, we can continue to send people to monitor him in secret and wait until he lets down his guard before taking action."

Li Huan nodded slightly to show his agreement, and then said: "Okay, Mr. Lin. Don't worry, just leave this matter to me. I have fully understood the importance and urgency of the task. Now, I will immediately set off to deal with the matter regarding the mysterious killer. Please believe in my ability, I will definitely do my best to complete this task and live up to your trust in me!"

Lin Qianhan gently waved his slender and powerful arms, as if to dispel all the worries and uneasiness, and then said in a low but firm tone: "Hurry up! Go and complete the task and come back immediately, we don't have much time left!" His eyes revealed a sense of urgency and anxiety, as if every second that passed would bring unpredictable consequences.

Li Huan, who was standing by, felt the weight of his words. "Boss Lin, don't worry, I will do your orders perfectly and act as soon as possible. I'm leaving first!"

Lin Qianhan hummed lightly, and Li Huan went down to tell people to take action.
