“What is this?”
Seeing the object, Liao Gaofei bent down and picked it up.
When he held it, his face froze and he looked at his friend in shock.
“This… isn’t this an audio recorder? Has anyone else gone to your office?”
Upon catching sight of the object, the man stared at his friend anxiously, though he did not think that it had something to do with their other two friends and assumed that it was placed there by Fu Mingxuan’s rival in business who was harboring ill intention.
In contrast, the moment the other heard his words, his face blanched.
“Audio recorder…”
He thought of that man’s cold and sharp face and balled his hands into fists.
“Ji Ziming, you’re really smart!”
He then walked past Liao Gaofei and rushed out of the office without delay.
“H-Hey, Mingxuan! What do you mean by that?! Why did you mention our friend’s name? Could this have been left by him?”
His friend followed him out of the office at once.
Alas, even after putting effort into catching up to his friend, he was left behind by the man who had gotten in his car in a hurry.
Watching the car drive off, he felt something amiss. He, thus, pursed his lips and gave Mu Heng a call. “What’s going on? Ziming left an audio recorder in Mingxuan’s office?”
He was completely out of loop regarding the issue between the two men.
Still, he knew that Mu Heng should know what was going on.
“Audio recorder… It turns out that Ziming was referring to that…”
Not before long, he heard the man on the other end say that.
“Ah?! That was really placed there by Ziming? Oh, man! What’s wrong with those two? Mingxuan left me here without saying anything and drove off as if a ghost were hot on his heels—”
The man on the other end exclaimed, cutting him off, “What?! He left?!”
“Right! He didn’t explain anything to me and simply left,” he complained.
“Be honest; where did he hide Pei Ge?!” Ignoring his complaints, Mu Heng quickly questioned.
“I-I don’t know…”
He was instantly infuriated by the guy’s continued denial even when the matter had reached this stage.
“I say, are you stupid?! Since you said Ziming had left an audio recorder hidden in our friend’s office, he should know by now where she’s been hidden, and Mingxuan must’ve realized this, so he left immediately.” He rolled his eyes in the middle of speaking. “You’re still trying to keep it secret for him; are you stupid?! What do you think will happen when both of them meet there?”
“Ah!”
Only then did Liao Gaofei realize it then.
“Those two have fought earlier; don’t tell me that you didn’t see the bruises on Mingxuan’s face?!”
“I-I…”
He was so preoccupied with questioning the man that he did not notice the bruises on his face.
“What about you? Stop hesitating. Quickly tell me where she is! If not, I’m really afraid that they’ll have another fight.”
Ji Ziming had almost strangled Fu Mingxuan to death earlier; thus, he was honestly scared that something bad would happen the moment both encountered each other again.
“Alright. I got it. Pei Ge is hidden at the private hospital in the suburbs…”
After extracting the exact location from him, Mu Heng drove off without delay toward the said hospital.
He was afraid that if he reached there any later, his best friend, who was not in his right mind, would do something bad.
The traffic police in the capital were bound to be busy today.
After all, the well-known four young masters in the capital were beating red lights on the same day at almost the same time.
Therefore, when the four got to the hospital in the suburbs, there were several traffic police enforcers who had rushed there as well.
The first to reach the hospital was Ji Ziming, who drove his car as if he were flying a plane.
His breakneck driving speed got him to the hospital, where he had been to several times before, way faster.
After stopping his car, he alighted from it and dashed into the reception hall without closing the door.
“There’s a patient here called Pei Ge; where is she staying?!”
The moment he arrived at the front desk, he looked coldly and sharply at the ones stationed there.
The nurses, who were originally discussing how good-looking the man coming in was, were immediately shocked by his tyrannical display.
They nervously gulped and nodded in fear.
“O-Okay, sir. Please wait a moment…”
“Faster!” He ordered coldly after receiving such a reply.
“Y-Yes!”
The nurses shuddered and quickened their actions.
While being glared at by the man, one of the nurses pulled up the woman in question’s information.
“M-Miss Pei is staying in the gynecology bamboo garden’s room 1002…”
Before the nurse could finish speaking, she saw the man stride toward the location.
Looking at his rapidly receding back, the nurse blinked and heaved a sigh of relief instantly.
Wu wu wu! So terrifying!
Walking toward the location, he looked at the familiar walkway and corridor and subconsciously furrowed his brows.
This walkway…
I’ve walked this way before.
His footsteps subconsciously slowed down.
Qiao Jingyun… is staying here, too.
When he thought of this, an ominous feeling rose in his heart.
He suddenly remembered the day when Pei Ge called him.
Halt!
All of a sudden, he stopped walking. With an ugly expression, he clenched his fists.
‘Ziming, where are you right now…’
Could she have seen him here, and that was why she had asked him that?
