Madame is Pretending to be an Academic Slacker Again!

Feeling the little woman’s gaze resting upon him, Nalan Ye Jue couldn’t suppress a smile as he looked at the road ahead: ”Is the little wife not getting enough of gazing at her husband?”

Qin Xin’s face reddened: ”Of course not.”

She hurriedly turned her face to look out the car window.

Nalan Ye Jue slightly curled his lips: ”If the little wife likes, why not accompany the husband to an event tomorrow?”

Qin Xin lazily replied: ”What event?”

Nalan Ye Jue: ”It’s a design competition, you should be interested too.”

Qin Xin’s eyebrows slightly twitched, her voice still lazy: ”Not going.”

Nalan Ye Jue continued to entice her: ”I’m a judge; at that time, the little wife can sit in the guest seat and openly admire your man on stage.”

Qin Xin: ”...”

Ahem, ahem, she wasn’t lovesick.

”Too lazy to go,” she said.

Nalan Ye Jue said nothing more, thinking to himself, it seems he needs to find more things that interest the little wife to distract her from the matter regarding Xiangxiang.

Si Family.

Si Moyu entered the house with a heavy expression.

His older sister, Miss Si, who is also Mrs. Hu, immediately rushed over anxiously: ”Brother, how is it? Any news about my Hu Yi?”

Si Moyu shook his head heavily.

”I’ve checked all the surveillance, even searched the basement, and there’s not a shadow of that kid.”

Mrs. Hu frowned deeply, her eyes swollen from crying: ”But he clearly went into that hospital!”

Si Moyu pondered: ”I’ve seen the surveillance photo you mentioned of him entering the hospital, but it’s just his back, can’t see his face. Fingerprints were collected throughout the hospital, especially in my ward, none belonging to him. Could it be he went somewhere else? Was the person who went to the hospital just someone who looks like him?”

Mrs. Hu panicked: ”Impossible! He wasn’t alone, he went with two other classmates, one of whom is Young Master Ao, and Mrs. Ao is right here. You might say Hu Yi could lie, but Young Master Ao would never lie to his family about going elsewhere.”

Mrs. Ao walked over from the balcony, having just finished a phone call, with reddened eyes as well: ”That’s right, my Ao Xinghao may be a bit arrogant, but he wouldn’t lie to his family. He really went with Hu Yi to visit you at the hospital early in the morning, President Si.”

Mrs. Hu anxiously shook Si Moyu’s arm: ”Brother, you must believe us. Please help us think of something.”

Si Moyu, having just completed a surgery, had been running around looking for people and was now dizzy, almost losing his balance when Mrs. Hu shook him.

But he still persevered, nodding: ”Don’t worry, I will try my best to find him...”

Yet, a foreboding sense lingered in his mind; if the person really disappeared at the hospital and their tracks were erased, then the kidnapper must have significant backing.

What method could he use to catch the kidnapper?

The problem is, if it truly is a kidnapping, why hasn’t there been a call demanding ransom yet?

Suddenly, a snippet of memory flashed through his mind: ”Wait, just now when I brought people back to the ward to look for Hu Yi, I noticed the heart monitor and its position had been moved... and the breathing machine’s cord seemed to have been severed... someone meddled with them, and an oxygen chamber was missing... I need to have someone check the system.”

Previously, the focus was all on gathering fingerprints, not paying attention to these details.

But thinking about it now, since Mrs. Hu and Mrs. Ao are both certain Hu Yi was in his ward, the changes in the ward are highly suspicious.

These machines are so cumbersome; who would bother moving them?
