BXBX NOVEL Chapter 378: 378: All He Wants Is for Chi Enen to Be Alright!
It inexplicably gave one the feeling of an impending storm, weighty and brooding!
In Li Beijue’s villa, Huo Yi lightened his footsteps, quietly walking over, and asked softly, “Master Jue, has the Little Young Master fallen asleep?”
“Yes.”
Chi Jingchen had cried himself to sleep throughout the day and night, and each time he woke up to find Chi Enen still missing, he would cry again.
He was not sobbing loudly, but crying softly in a way that was heartbreakingly suppressed, as if he were desperately trying to contain his fragility and fear.
It was the kind of sight that involuntarily provoked sympathy.
Huo Yi, after this entire day and night, felt extremely uneasy.
He wished he could immediately find Chi Enen.
Should they fail to find Miss Chi, he feared both the Little Young Master and Master Jue would collapse.
Especially Master Jue, who hadn’t slept or eaten anything for a whole day and night. All day long, besides comforting the Little Young Master to sleep, he was smashing things, cursing people, and demanding searches. Huo Yi felt that if this went on, Master Jue’s mental state might not hold up much longer!
He was not afraid of anything else; he just feared that the paranoia Master Jue had barely managed to control might flare up again.
Li Beijue sat on the sofa, half-hidden in the shadow, exuding an aura that screamed ‘keep out’. Only when he heard about Bae Chi did that icy air ease slightly, “He’s already asleep.”
“Did you find anything?”
Huo Yi really didn’t want to speak, but he had to, “I’m sorry, Master Jue.”
It had been one day and one night!
It was enough time even for a murderer to dispose of a body!
And they still hadn’t found any trace!
Li Beijue punched the tea table with his fist, stood up, and with a kick, he overturned the trash can in front of him, his face as cold as it could be, on par with the icebergs of Siberia, while he groaned hoarsely, “I don’t want to hear apologies; I need to know where she is now!”
“Master Jue, I’m sorry, we’ve checked all the highway exits in Capital City; there’s no record of that plate number passing through. And within the city, there is no trace of that vehicle…”
Li Beijue’s chest heaved violently, then he pressed his thin lips together in dejection and suddenly said, “Give me the mobile phone; I’m calling the Old Master.”
“Master Jue?” Huo Yi was taken aback.
He, of course, knew who Li Beijue referred to as the Old Master, but calling him would expose Miss Chi and the Little Young Master.
Given the Old Master’s personality, the path ahead for Miss Chi and Master Jue might become complicated…
“Give it to me!” The concerns Huo Yi could think of, how could Li Beijue not have considered?
But Li Beijue could no longer focus on all of that!
All he wanted was for Chi Enen to be safe!
As long as that woman was safe, he didn’t care what punishment awaited him or how difficult their future together might be!
He just wanted her to be unharmed!
As long as she was safe, anything would do!
Huo Yi passed him the mobile phone.
Whatever was said on the other side of the phone, half an hour later, Li Beijue put down the phone, his face grave as he massaged his temple, and said, “It’s alright now, the Old Master has agreed to help with the search.”
If he was willing to lend a hand, even if Chi Enen had flown to the heavens, she would be found promptly.
But…
Thinking of what he had just agreed to, it felt as if an invisible hand was squeezing his heart, making him restless and irritable.
Huo Yi, observing his complexion, dared not disturb him, and stood silently to the side like a statue, quietly standing guard.
The night was still long, and this night was destined to be a restless one…
