Kevin Ye almost clapped in celebration, "That's great. Then please lose more money."
"When I get familiar with the game, I'll make you lose your money."
As expected, Xiran Xiao had won many times in a row after she figured out the game.
There was a lot of laughter in the room. John, who had come up to refill the tea, smiled kindly. He also
stood behind Henry and instructed him on how to play mahjong. But when he went out, he sighed
softly.
Last New Year's Eve, Kerry was alone in the house. He sat in front of the window alone until dawn.
This year, all the people Kerry was expecting were back, but he himself wasn't here.
"Things are really hard to predict," John sighed.
Near midnight, firecrackers were heard in the distance. They put down the mahjong and went outside.
Pingan, who had fallen asleep, woke up to the noise.
"Kevin, why don't you go light the fireworks?" John said, and then gave Kevin a lighter.
Xiran stood next to Venus and covered Pingan's ears with her hands. There was a loud bang, and
huge fireworks exploded in the sky.
Pingan laughed very happily at this sight.
"Venus, light a Kongming lantern as a blessing for Kerry." John said, and then he brought a blue lantern
to Venus.
Venus nodded.
Together they lit the lantern and watched as it slowly expanded and then flew into the sky.
"Kerry, you can’t die,” Venus whispered.
Tianye held Xiran in his arms and said softly, "You should call our parents. It's New Year's Eve, and I
want to thank them for giving birth to the most beautiful you in the world."
Xiran was stunned, then smiled and asked, "Parents?"
"Yeah. But they'll be my parents soon." Tianye said.
"You haven't even proposed to me yet. Why are my parents your parents?" Xiran said.
Tianye bowed his head and kissed her deeply on the lips, "I'm sorry. I've been so busy with things
lately. When I'm done, I'll make sure to give you a grand proposal ceremony."
"I don't care if it's grand or not," said Xiran, leaning against his chest, "I only care if you have me in your
heart."
"All I have in my heart is you." said Tianye.
"Okay then, I'll let you talk to my parents." She said, and then she pulled out her phone and held his
hand, walking into the room.
Kevin was extremely shocked when he saw how gentle Xiran was. He didn't expect her to have such a
tender side. He thought she was always so strong.
Kevin lit a firework and walked over to Venus and said to Pingan, "How does it look?"
Pingan clapped her little hand in delight, "It looks beautiful."
"Here, take this." Kevin put it in his little hand.
"It's fun." Pingan shook it in his hand.
Kevin's eyes fell on Venus's smiling face and said softly, "Happy New Year, Venus."
"Happy New Year." Venus said with a smile. Then she looked at Pingan. She was worried that the
fireworks would hurt his hand.
......
Venus gave red envelopes to all the servents who stayed at the villa and sent New Year's greetings to
them.
Pingan also received several red envelopes, especially the biggest red envelope from Tianye.
"Venus, we're going home first." said Tianye. After finishing the meal, Tianye and Xiran were ready to
leave.
"When you need us, remember to call me. I've been sending people to find Kerry, so don't worry too
much." Tianye said.
"Honey, can you give me a kiss?" Xiran walked up to Pingan and said.
Then Pingan smiled happily and gave her a kiss on the cheek.
She touched his face. "I'm leaving, bye."
As she watched the two men leave, Venus felt a sudden chill in the environment.
"Go inside, it's too windy out there," Kevin reminded her.
Venus nodded, then turned around with Pingan in her arms and entered the house.
Ye family didn’t have many relatives and Kevin claimed that his brother wasn't home, so no one came
to his house to visit in the New Year.
Venus saved herself the trouble of entertaining guests, but her heart was also very sad.
Although she promised Xiran not to think too much, the truth was there, and she was just sad.
After the Spring Festival holiday, Venus and Kevin not only had to look around for Kerry, but also had to
face the problem of running the Yehuang Group.
Several of the company's top executives had been following Kerry for years and were loyal to him, so it
was a problem whether they would be able to follow Kevin's, or Venus', orders.
If they asked where Kerry had gone, Venus and Kevin didn't know how to answer.
After discussions with Tianye, on the last day of the Chinese New Year holiday, Venus invited the two
vice presidents of the Yehuang Group to the Ye villa. The two vice presidents were only below Kerry in
the company's hierarchy.
When they received the call from Venus, the two vice presidents were surprised. They had got the
news that Kerry had gone to Australia with his wife and children for New Year's Eve, so they didn’t
expect to receive Venus call.
When they arrived at the villa, the two vice presidents were even more puzzled. They saw several
people sitting in the living room. In addition to Kevin, there was also Tianye and his girlfriend in the
living room. However, there was no Kerry.
As for the background of Tianye's girlfriend, they had already investigated her clearly on the night of the
annual meeting. They knew that she was the richest person in S city.
"Please take a seat." Venus said politely, "I'm really sorry. I shouldn't have called you here to discuss
company matters while you are still on vacation."
"May I ask what's so important?" Mr. Chen asked.
Venus looked worried and got straight to the point, "There is something very important." Then her eyes
got wet. "Kerry is missing."
"What?" Mr. Chen was shocked.
"My brother is indeed in trouble. I said on TV earlier that his trip to Australia was a lie. He couldn't come
out in person to clear up the rumors because he was missing." Kevin said.
"What's going on?" Mr. Chen looked anxious and asked.
Kevin was silent for a moment and said, "On the night of the annual meeting, my brother received a
strange phone call. They said they had something important to give him in person. So my brother left
the conference and never came back. We've been looking for him for the past few days."
"That's why I was in such a hurry to leave," Venus explained.
Mr. Chen recalled the evening of the annual meeting. He was still wondering why Kerry left in the
middle of such an important occasion.
"Then who the hell called Mr. Ye?" asked Mr. Xu, another vice president.
Venus shook his head, "I don't know. We've checked Kerry's phone records. The call was made from
overseas," she paused for a moment, and then said meaningfully, "You know he's offended a lot of
people in the past, so ......"
Mr. Chen and Mr. Xu were extremely smart people. They have been with Kerry for a long time and
know that Kerry has offended many people in the process of growing Yehuang Group in the past few
years.
"Is it kidnapping or revenge?" Mr. Xu asked.
"It should be revenge. We don't even know where he has been taken." Venus said, and then she buried
her face in her hands, crying.
At that moment, a soft voice came over, "Mom."
They both turned around to see a kid in a yellow sweater walking up with a glowing Transformer in his
hand.
To their surprise, the kid looked just as he was describe on the Internet, with one eye blue and one
purple, and he looked like Kerry.
