Chapter 290 Man On Nameless Island
However, the development of the matter had exceeded everyone’s expectations.
Ye Shaochen disappeared.
“This is the letter of resignation he left on my desk.” Feng Shuo hurried back and looked at the people in the living room. He frowned and said, “What happened to him?”
He had just returned from a business trip and didn’t know anything about the relationship between Ye Shaochen and Huo Yunxi.
“I went to the place where he lived before. He’s not here.” Huo Yunzhan said in a deep voice. The anger in his eyes had already turned into deep doubt. “He didn’t return to the Ye Clan either.”
Everyone calmed down and analyzed carefully. They all felt that the situation was very suspicious. At the very least, Ye Shaochen was very abnormal.
“Is something wrong with him?” Huo Yunxi’s eyes were swollen like peaches. She bit her lips tightly to keep herself from crying, but her trembling hands betrayed her true feelings.
Xia Luobing’s eyes lit up and she said, “I’ll find someone to check if he’s been on a plane or a train recently.”
If a person really wanted to hide, he might leave the city.
But what exactly happened to make Ye Shaochen suddenly leave this house?
“Everyone, don’t worry. Shaochen is not an impulsive person.” Huo Yunqi said, “Yunxi, calm down and take good care of the child.”
Huo Yunxi took a deep breath and gritted his teeth. “I know, big brother. Don’t worry, I won’t be impulsive anymore.”
After crying all night, all her resentment turned into worry. She even thought that as long as he was fine, it wouldn’t matter if they couldn’t be together.
Now, she only wanted him to be safe and sound.
“Bing Bing, let Li Xiang investigate.” Huo Yunqi said, then looked at Feng Shuo and Huo Yunzhan. “Let’s send someone to investigate what happened last night.”
His instincts told him that Ye Shaochen’s departure was inseparable from the woman in the photo.
But who exactly is that woman …?
He had known Ye Shaochen for so many years and had never heard him mention it.
The results of Li Xiang’s investigation were quickly fed back. Ye Shaochen did not take a plane or a flight, nor did he take a car to leave.
So he should still be in A City.
Three days had passed, but Ye Shaochen still hadn’t received any news. The strings in Huo Yunxi’s mind were tense, and his spirit was on the verge of collapse.
“Sister-in-law, do you think something really happened to him?” Huo Yunxi muttered, “I don’t want anything to happen to him.”
Ye Shaochen, come back safely.
“Even if he wants to leave me, he still has to come back to handle the divorce formalities, right?” Huo Yunxi bit her lips and said, “Sister-in-law, I’m going crazy!”
Xia Luobing hugged Huo Yunxi, gently stroked her back and comforted her softly, “Yunxi, if we have more patience, we will definitely have news.”
Whether it was the Public Security Bureau or the Huo Corporation, they had sent many people to look for Ye Shaochen, but there was still no news.
How could a well-behaved person suddenly disappear?
This is unbelievable.
“Dingdong! Dingdong!”
Suddenly, the phone rang, causing Huo Yunxi to suddenly tighten her back. She grabbed the phone and her lips trembled violently.
“Sister-in-law, sister-in-law … it’s her. This woman called me. That night, she called me …” Huo Yunxi said incoherently, “Sister-in-law.”
Xia Luobing already understood Huo Yunxi’s meaning. She reached out and picked up the phone.
“Huo Yunxi, it seems that the person he loves is not you.” The woman laughed softly. “I’m his favorite person. He’s cooking for me in the kitchen.”
“I told him to leave you, and he really left you. The things he stole will always be returned.”
The phone suddenly hung up, and Xia Luobing’s face turned ashen.
Not to mention the authenticity of the phone call, at the very least, it proved that there really was a woman, a woman who was related to Ye Shaochen.
“Sister-in-law.” Huo Yunxi’s eyes flickered, “What did she say?”
Xia Luobing held Huo Yunxi’s hand and her eyes flashed. Finally, she came back to her senses and said firmly, “Ye Shaochen has a house on Nameless Island, right?”
Huo Yunxi was stunned for a moment before nodding, “Yes, what’s wrong?”
“I think Ye Shaochen should be there.” Xia Luobing said in a deep voice.
On the phone, she heard the sound of the waves.
City A was only facing the sea. There was an unknown island on the sea. Huo Yunqi once mentioned that Ye Shaochen had built a villa there.
“Let’s go immediately!” Huo Yunxi stood up abruptly and fell heavily on the sofa.
Xia Luobing hurriedly supported her and reprimanded her, “You’ve been refusing to take a good rest these past few days. Now, your body can’t take it anymore, right?”
“Sister-in-law, I’m fine.” Huo Yunxi hurriedly shook his head, “Let’s go now.”
She just stood up abruptly, causing a lack of blood supply to her brain.
She wanted to personally walk in front of Ye Shaochen and ask him what had happened and why it was so easy to give up their relationship for so many years.
“I want to inform your big brother and the others that you should go upstairs to rest and change your clothes now.” Xia Luobing ordered, “We’ll go back in the afternoon.”
Huo Yunxi opened his mouth to refute, but when he looked at Xia Luobing with a serious gaze, he could only nod his head, “Alright, I’ll go upstairs to rest immediately. You must take me with you.”
“Alright.” Xia Luobing nodded solemnly. How could she not bring her?
She already knew that Ye Shaochen might be there. Without her, she would probably run over by herself.
Xia Luobing sighed, sat on the sofa and gently pressed his forehead. He picked up his phone and called Yunqi Huo, “I know where Ye Shaochen is. You can come back first.”
After hanging up the phone, Charlotte walked into the courtyard. Looking at the flourishing flowers and plants, she felt slightly uneasy.
This kind of uneasiness was very familiar, just like how it felt every time something happened at home.
“Ye Shaochen, you must not disappoint Yunxi!” Xia Luobing frowned and sighed heavily.
Huo Yunxi’s feelings for Ye Shaochen were already like crazy. If he really fell in love with another woman, she would definitely collapse.
An hour later, Huo Yunqi hurriedly returned, along with Feng Shuo and Huo Yunzhan.
“We just found out that he might be on Nameless Island.” Huo Yunqi walked in and said, “Bing Bing, are you talking about this place?”
Xia Luobing nodded seriously, “Yes.”
“Yunzhan, stay at home with Tao Zui.” Xia Luobing said, then looked at Feng Shuo and continued, “Don’t go anymore.”
Intoxicated, he asked, “Why?”
She was so angry that her lungs were about to explode. She only thought that if Ye Shaochen really betrayed Yun Xi, she would teach him a lesson.
“I always feel that things have happened too suddenly.” Xia Luobing thought about her vocabulary and slowly said, “I’m not at ease leaving mother and children at home.”
Feng Shuo and Huo Yunzhan exchanged glances. Both of them nodded, “Leave the matters of the family to us. If you go, you should also have a safe idea.”
As he spoke, Huo Yunxi had already changed his clothes and went downstairs. He even wore light makeup. He looked much more energetic than before, but his eyes were still filled with exhaustion.
“Big brother, big sister-in-law, we can go now.” Huo Yunxi went downstairs and smiled.
However, the smile did not reach his eyes. It floated on his face, making him feel uncomfortable.
Xia Luobing picked up her coat and draped it over Huo Yunxi’s shoulders.
It was about an hour from the Huo Clan’s old mansion to the harbor. On the way, Huo Yunxi had been puckering his lips tightly, his eyes staring straight ahead.
“Yunxi promised me that no matter what happens, you need to calm down, okay?” Xia Luobing grabbed her cold fingertips and said seriously, “No matter what you see or hear, don’t judge in a hurry.”
Huo Yunxi took a deep breath and said, “I know.”
She felt that even her breathing was painful, and it was as painful as tearing one’s heart and splitting one’s lungs.
Although it was not clear what had happened, Ye Shaochen had nothing to do with his life or even his life as long as he thought of the possibility in the future.
A great sense of unease arose in her heart.
The car stopped at the dock, and they boarded the ship they had prepared to go to Nameless Island. Looking at the island in the middle of the sea, the expressions on the faces of the three of them were very complicated.
On the way to the island, the three of them walked towards the house on the island. After taking a few steps, Huo Yunxi suddenly stopped. Her legs trembled and her heart twitched violently.
She wasn’t sure if walking over to find out the truth would solve her doubts or send her to hell.
“Sister-in-law, I’m afraid.” Huo Yunxi said with tears in her eyes. She refused to take another step forward. She grabbed Xia Luobing’s arm tightly and bit her lips. “I’m really scared.”
Xia Luobing understood Huo Yunxi’s feelings. She reached out to hug Huo Yunxi and patted her back gently. “Otherwise, shall we go back?”
Indeed, there are some things that are easier to deceive yourself when you don’t know.
Time seemed to have stopped. The wind blew through Huo Yunxi’s hair. She was as fragile as a doll that could shatter at any moment.
“I’m fine.” Huo Yunxi took a deep breath, straightened his back and continued to walk forward, step by step searching for the truth he wanted.
The house on the island was beautifully built, with white walls and red roofs, surrounded by green trees. It was simply a paradise in Huo Yunxi’s heart.
She remembered that she had once said that she wanted to live in such a place, open the window, and face the sea in spring.
This place was exactly the same as she had hoped. No, it was more beautiful than she thought.
After walking along the cobblestone path, the beautiful house finally appeared in front of everyone.
“They’re over there.” Huo Yunxi said softly, his eyes already wet.
She felt that her heart was no longer her own.
There was a bench in front of the house. Ye Shaochen was wearing a white shirt and was looking at the sea with a long-haired girl in his arms.
He was gentle and considerate, occasionally helping her tidy up her hair or bringing her water to drink. His gentle appearance seemed to be caring for the most precious treasure in the world.
“Yunxi.” Xia Luobing noticed Huo Yunxi shook off her arm and walked forward alone. He couldn’t help but shout.
When Ye Shaochen heard her voice, his back trembled, but he didn’t overdo it.
“Who is she?” Huo Yunxi walked up to the two of them and looked at the strange girl in Ye Shaochen’s arms. He stared at the two of them and said word by word, “Ye Shaochen, tell me, who is she?”
“Yunxi, I’m sorry.” Ye Shaochen avoided Huo Yunxi’s gaze and said indifferently, “You can leave.”
