Chapter 526: Chapter 526: She Really Dares
In the Shengjing Bay Villa Group, Bai Chenyao lay coldly on the large bed in the bedroom.
His thick, sword-like eyebrows slightly furrowed, his complexion somewhat pale, uncertain whether it was due to poor sleep or something else.
Li Mu stood beside the bed, exceptionally respectful, even somewhat cautious.
"Gone?"
Li Mu nodded, noting the air in the room almost freezing over, his voice growing even more respectful.
"Yes, at... the train station, said she didn’t board the train."
After speaking, Li Mu cautiously glanced at him from the corner of his eye.
Noticing his increasingly gloomy expression, even with a hint of violence, Li Mu’s heart tightened, nearly stopping him from breathing.
"The train at ten in the morning, it’s now four in the afternoon, such a long time, still no sign of her?"
Bai Chenyao’s voice was deep, indifferent, seemingly as usual.
But only Li Mu knew, the more it seemed this way, the worse his mood was.
This was the calm before the storm, appearing the same as before, yet actually brewing a tempest.
"The school is investigating, they say she went into the restroom and didn’t come out, checked the surveillance footage, indeed only saw her enter, didn’t see her leave."
Li Mu was also very puzzled, how someone could enter and not come out, and there was no one in the restroom.
Seeing him suddenly sit up from the bed, the wound on his chest instantly reddened the gauze upon sitting up suddenly, Li Mu’s heart skipped a beat.
"Sir."
"Go to Jinxin Courtyard!"
Seeing him seemingly unaware that the gauze had turned red, Li Mu’s breathing lightened slightly.
"Sir, I’ll go check right away, surely—"
"Li Mu!"
"Present!"
"Execute the order!"
"Yes!"
——
Arriving at Jinxin Courtyard, although Li Mu wanted to stop him, he dared not utter another word seeing his cold expression, but quickly called the family doctor just in case.
Bai Chenyao quickly scanned the entire room and noted two sets of clothes missing from the bedroom closet, both previously worn by Gu Tiantian.
Yet her grandmother’s two pairs of shoes remained in the corner.
Because of this, when she packed her luggage, he had not grown suspicious.
His expression darkened to the point of dripping water; Bai Chenyao suddenly slammed the closet door shut, turning around, he strode to the study.
Li Mu, watching the ever-reddening gauze on his chest, finally showed a look of concern on his previously emotionless face.
Thinking of his temperament, Li Mu knew that no matter what he said now, he would certainly not listen.
Bai Chenyao opened the computer, his long fingers flying over the keyboard, pulling up the traces Gu Tiantian thought she had erased.
Down jacket!
Ha!
The address turned out to be that small village at the northernmost part of Jiyun Province!
An ominous glint appeared on his handsome, stern face, and Bai Chenyao suddenly slammed the computer shut with a loud snap, Li Mu’s face turned pale.
Looking at him, noticing his inscrutable expression, his pair of dark eyes at this moment deep like a vast whirlpool, seemingly able to swallow everything.
"Sir?"
Bai Chenyao suddenly lifted his eyes, his dark, cold eyes fixating on Li Mu, an unrestrained, eerie anger in his gaze.
"She’s got the nerve!"
Li Mu stood still, not daring to move.
Seeing him suddenly looking at him, and even nodded to him with his chin.
Li Mu grasped the meaning, quickly walked over.
Upon opening the computer and seeing Miss Gu’s previous browsing history, a thousand horses ran rampant in Li Mu’s mind.
[Ugh... alright, Tiantian finally couldn’t hold back and ran away...]
