Chapter 237 Breakup
Zhou Yian didn't answer the phone, which meant that she was angry after reading the news. Xu Zehao was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. He grabbed the car keys and went straight to Zhou Yian's company.
"Hello, I'm looking for Zhou Yian. Could you please notify him for me?"
The company receptionist looked at this man who usually only appeared on the screen, and now appeared in front of her alive. What's more, she had just finished eating his melon early this morning. She was panicked for a moment and her mind went blank.
"Hello, I'm looking for Zhou Yian. Could you please notify her for me? Thank you." Seeing the stunned look on the receptionist's face, Xu Zehao had to patiently raise his voice and say it again.
The receptionist finally came to her senses and said, "Oh, sir, I'm sorry, Zhou Yian didn't come to work today."
"Didn't come?" Xu Zehao had a bad feeling in his heart. Sure enough, the next second, a few words popped up on his phone: "Xu Zehao, let's break up."
Without time to think, Xu Zehao turned around and drove to Zhou Yian's house, but no matter how hard he knocked on the door, no one opened it.
There was no sound in the room when he called. Everything happened so suddenly that he didn't know what to do for a moment. He kicked the door a few times in frustration, and the iron door made a clanging sound.
The neighbor next door was so frightened that he stuck his head out and shouted: "Hey, what are you doing? Are you demolishing the house? You scared my baby."
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I..." Xu Zehao nodded and bent down, apologizing sincerely.
"Oh, it's you! Stop knocking! This morning I saw your girlfriend and her daughter carrying lots of bags. It looked like they were going on a long trip."
"go out?"
"I'm not sure, but it seems so. I saw them carrying bags out at around 7 or 8 this morning. Please stop knocking. My child still needs to sleep."
"Okay, thank you." Xu Zehao looked at the closed door helplessly, sighed deeply, and left angrily.
When he came downstairs, Xu Zehao did not leave immediately, but sat in the car cluelessly. At this moment, he suddenly remembered that he had not replied to the breakup text message.
[An An, where have you been? I'm downstairs at your house. Can we meet? ]
[Things are not what you think. Jiatong was drunk last night. I guarantee with my personal integrity that nothing happened between us. You have to believe me.]
After editing the text message, Xu Zehao clicked the send button and repeatedly confirmed whether it had been delivered, fearing that the text message could not be sent and he would not even be able to explain himself.
After the text message showed that it had been delivered, he repeatedly checked to see if Zhou Yian had replied to him.
Although only a dozen minutes had passed, Xu Zehao felt as if a much longer time had passed. The unanswered text message was causing him great distress.
Ding Dong, the message notification sound finally rang. He quickly clicked on the message and found that it was indeed sent by Zhou Yian.
[This has happened so many times. I'm tired. I can't imagine how many more times I'll have to go through this if I marry you.]
"If you cared about me, you wouldn't have let this happen. We were about to get married, but you and your assistant exposed such a scandal. How can I trust you?"
[Xu Zehao, don't look for me anymore. We are over. Let's live our own lives.]
Seeing that Zhou Yian was willing to reply to the message, Xu Zehao quickly called her again, but she did not answer. It seemed that she did not want to communicate with him.
Xu Zehao had no choice but to hang up the phone and text her back.
[An An, don't be impulsive. Let's meet and talk about it. I will give you a satisfactory answer.]
The message was replied within seconds after I sent it.
[No, there is no need for us to meet.]
Seeing Zhou Yian's resolute attitude, Xu Zehao slammed the steering wheel in frustration and held his forehead. He never thought that things would turn out like this. They were still sweetly discussing how to hold the wedding yesterday, but today they suddenly said they wanted to break up. This sudden change was unacceptable to him.
After a violent emotional fluctuation, Xu Zehao finally calmed down. He gradually realized that something was wrong with what happened, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
Xu Zehao felt that the most urgent thing was to find Zhou Yian first, so that everything could turn around. Finding someone required some means. After knowing Gu Jiatong's secret last night, he became worried about her. In addition, today's incident was caused by her, so he did not call Gu Jiatong, but called Xiaowu and asked Xiaowu to find someone.
Soon, two days passed, but Xiaowu still didn't find anyone, not even a clue.
Xiao Wu looked at the anxious Xu Zehao, hesitated for a moment, and finally asked, "Mr. Xu, there's something I'm not sure if I should say."
Xu Zehao held his forehead and sighed, then waved his hand weakly, "Speak."
"Ms. Zhou didn't leave suddenly. She must have planned this for a long time. If it was a normal move, how come all the surveillance cameras didn't capture her?"
"There are only a few people in Tianshui who can take someone away without leaving any trace."
Hearing Xiao Wu say this, Xu Zehao's mind raced, and his eyes suddenly became clear, "Fu Shenyan?"
Xiaowu nodded.
Xu Zehao then remembered that this matter might not be that simple. He quickly sorted out what had happened and finally knew what was wrong.
He stood up in a flash and exclaimed in a low voice: "I know what the problem is."
"What time was it when that photo first broke out and became a trending topic? I think it was around nine o'clock."
"But An An's neighbors said she went out early in the morning carrying a lot of luggage. Yes, that's the problem."
"Why would she pack her things in advance? How did she know we would have an argument?"
"Xiao Wu, help me find out Fu Shenyan's whereabouts over the past two days. The reason I went to the bar yesterday was because of him."
"He is definitely involved in this matter."
"Yes, Mr. Xu."
In a villa in the suburbs, Zhou Yian was being stopped by security guards and not allowed to leave.
"You let me out. I've been here for two days."
"Why are you putting me under house arrest here? Do you know that this is against the law?"
The security guard ignored her request and responded indifferently: "I'm sorry, Miss Zhou, this is what Mr. Fu meant. Can you please not embarrass us?"
Zhou Yian angrily yelled at the security guard, but the security guard just stood there motionless and refused to open the iron gate to let her out no matter what she said.
Zhou Yian had no choice but to drag his luggage and take his mother back to the villa.
Confused, Mother Zhou kept pulling at her clothes and asked cautiously, "An An, what's going on? Didn't you say we were going out for a few days to travel? How come Xiao Fu has locked us up here? We can't even get out the door."
"Tell me, Mom, are you hiding something from me?"
"Mom, it's okay, don't worry. Fu Shenyan may not have explained it clearly to his men. We can get out when he comes."
Zhou Yian comforted Zhou's mother with a guilty conscience, but he was afraid in his heart because he couldn't guess what Fu Shenyan wanted to do.
