1879

Yun Yuanfeng tried calling several times in a row, but he still got the same answer. Finally, his last bit of patience had been worn away by the same voice repeating itself, and he slammed the phone on the couch. Despair, anxiety, and annoyance stirred in his chest, and he gradually began to feel as if the sky was about to come crashing down.

“Cursed girl! The moment we need her, she disappears!”

“Ever since Yun Xi stormed off last night, she hasn’t been back. So, where could she have gone? Do you think she might be at Mu Mansion?”

Yun Chuhan was also affected by Yun Yuanfeng’s whirlwind of emotions and began to panic. They could not reach Yun Xi, and no one knew where she had gone. How were they going to find her?

“Even if she is at Mu Mansion, you won’t be able to get in!”

The darkness of despair hovering over Yun Yuanfeng made him feel as though there was no light at the end of the tunnel. Yun Chuhan, on the other hand, refused to give up and turned to look at Yao Ying, who was sitting on the couch. “Second Aunt, you’ve always been close with Yun Xi. Do you have any other way to reach her?”

“I only have her cell phone number. If you can’t reach her, then neither can I! She slaved herself away just to clean up the mess you made at the villa yesterday, yet you pissed her off the moment she came home. You’re not even worried if she’s alright all alone out there. You only think of her when you need her help. You certainly are the father of the year!”

Yao Ying could not bear to watch this shameless pair before her. She had never seen anyone as shameless as the two of them. Well, they deserved it! People like them were unworthy of sympathy. Sympathizing with them would only get her into the deep end along with them!

“You… Second Aunt, how can you talk like that? Aren’t we all in an emergency right now? Don’t you think you will suffer the same humiliation if something bad happens to our family?”

“What does the trouble you caused have to do with us? Our families parted ways long ago. It is you who made a fool of yourselves, and it is you who are in trouble. It has nothing to do with us. Everyone knows just how we carry ourselves and treat those around us. A righteous man fears not his own shadow. So why would I be worried about what people think of me?!”

Enough! Shut up, all of you!” Yun Yuanfeng did not have time to worry about this now. That cursed Yun Xi was nowhere to be seen, and he was flustered enough that he could not reach her at all!

“Han, go and ask the classmates of that sister of yours. See if they know where she is and if they can reach her.”

“Dad! Yun Xi’s classmates have never wanted to make friends with me. How am I supposed to contact them?”

At that moment, Yun Chuhan realized that Yun Xi’s friends were either from the Big Four Conglomerate Families or noble families. In fact, all of her friends were sons and daughters of prominent families, and none of them could be reached. Even Zhao Yumo was from the almighty Zhao family. So who could she even go to to ask for Yun Xi’s whereabouts?

Yao Ying could not be bothered to watch the two get their panties in a bunch. After all, they brought this upon themselves. Instead, she gave her husband a signal, telling him to go upstairs to accompany the old man, while she dragged the housekeeper with her and went into the kitchen to busy herself.

She could roughly guess what Yun Xi was trying to do. It was good that she could not be reached. After all, with her current status, she had nothing to worry about. With such a powerful birth father and his impressive background, no obstacle could trouble her.

However, maybe after this incident, the girl might really leave the Yun family for good. Then again, her leaving would be a wise choice. Having such parents in the Yun family will only hold her back. After walking out on them, she might even have a more promising future.

Just when Yao Ying turned around, Yun Yuanfeng’s phone on the couch suddenly rang, and Yun Yuanfeng practically leaped forward to answer his phone. Yun Yuanfeng’s secretary had called, and a man’s anxious and flustered voice came from the other end of the phone. “Director Yun, I have bad news! We’re in trouble! The people from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection are here, and they have evidence of your misconduct and corruption. The office is now under their watch, and since you weren’t in, they have headed to the military region residences! So you better run quick…”
