Lu Miaochan pondered for a moment, then said, "That might be for the best. Xiaosu, I'll trouble you to make a trip here. No matter how Ye Xuan is, finding him would be the best, and it would ease our minds. Otherwise, just waiting anxiously isn't a solution either!"

"Haha, since you put it that way, I'll really come then. Just don't blame me for interrupting your honeymoon," Wei Xiaosu joked.

"What's that! Don't joke around, who's on a honeymoon with him?"

Hearing this, Lu Miaochan blushed slightly and retorted with a hint of coquettishness.

"Alright, alright, Miaochan's getting shy, so I won't say it anymore. I'll go have some breakfast first, then come over to your place in a while. Send me the address later," Wei Xiaosu said.

"Okay." Lu Miaochan nodded and hung up the phone.

Meanwhile, she also breathed a sigh of relief!

Although still somewhat worried, after hearing Wei Xiaosu's words, she was clearly not as anxious as before and felt much more at ease.

Ring, ring, ring!

Just as Lu Miaochan hung up the phone and was about to tell her grandparents what Wei Xiaosu had said, suddenly, another ringtone sounded, causing her to pause.

She glanced at the caller ID, which was noted as a person named Sister Ying! And among the people Lu Miaochan knew, there was no doubt that Sister Ying referred to Liu Ying.

Without a doubt, it was Liu Ying calling!

Lu Miaochan didn't pick up the phone immediately but instead glanced around before jogging out of the villa with the phone.

She ran to a spot over ten meters away before cautiously answering the call and asking, "Sister Liu Ying, this is Miaochan. Do you need something?"

"Miaochan, where's Ye Xuan? Isn't he with you?" Liu Ying asked softly with a laugh.

Hearing this, Lu Miaochan felt a jolt in her heart. She hesitated a bit and replied unnaturally, "Ye Xuan... he's not here..."

"Not here? Didn't he go to see you? How come he's not there? Did he not find you?" Liu Ying asked, puzzled.

"I didn't mean that. He came, but he's not here now," Lu Miaochan explained.

"Oh, is that so? Do you know where he went?"

"He..."

Lu Miaochan hesitated, not replying to Liu Ying immediately.

After pondering for a moment, she finally said, "Sister Liu Ying, to be honest, I don't know where Ye Xuan is either! He went up the mountain to gather herbs this morning and hasn't returned all day. I'm also trying to find him everywhere!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Ying sensed something unusual and immediately became serious, saying, "Miaochan, what's really going on? You better make it clear quickly."

"Sister Liu Ying, it's like this..."

Lu Miaochan didn't hide anything and briefly explained the situation.

After listening, Liu Ying fell silent.

Not until a long moment later did she speak in a solemn tone, "So you're saying Ye Xuan is missing?"

"Sister Liu Ying, I'm not sure, but I think he shouldn't be missing. Maybe he'll come back later! Or maybe there are other reasons. In short, we're not sure right now, just afraid he met with an accident in the mountains. I almost called the police earlier," Lu Miaochan said with a bitter smile.

"I understand, Miaochan."

Liu Ying took a deep breath, nodded, and said, "I am very worried about Ye Xuan's safety now. If you don't mind, I can come over later too. You can rest assured I won't come to your house. I just want to be there to see Ye Xuan return safely with my own eyes."

"Well... alright! You can come over; my grandma's house is in Huayu Village, Qingling County."

Lu Miaochan couldn't refuse, so she agreed to Liu Ying's visit and gave her the address.

"Okay, I'll come over later. See you then," Liu Ying nodded and said before hastily hanging up.

Meanwhile.

In East Sea City, inside Ye Xuan's villa, in Liu Ying's room.

"Sister Liu Ying, what's going on? How did Brother Ye Xuan go missing?"

As soon as Liu Ying hung up the phone, Murong Wanwan anxiously asked.

Liu Ying rubbed her forehead, her tense expression softened slightly, and she said softly, "It's nothing major. He just hasn't returned after going to the mountains to gather herbs overnight. There's been no news, so he's technically missing. But this doesn't mean much, since we know his skills. There's no way anything will happen to him. I believe he'll be alright!"

Her words were lightly spoken, totally different from her earlier concern during the phone call.

"Yeah, that's true. How could anything happen to Brother Ye Xuan, such a capable person, in the mountains? The wild animals wouldn't dare do anything to him!"

Murong Wanwan felt Liu Ying's words made sense and nodded in agreement.

Her expression eased, and she suddenly thought of something, asking puzzledly, "Sister Liu Ying, since you know nothing will happen to Brother Ye Xuan, why were you so nervous and worried just now?"

"You little fool, if I didn't act a bit worried, how could I openly take you to find your Brother Ye Xuan?"

Liu Ying playfully flicked Murong Wanwan's forehead with her finger, smiling as she spoke.

"Oh, I see? Sister Liu Ying, you're so smart! You even fooled me just now, hehehe..."

Murong Wanwan suddenly realized and chuckled.

"Little girl, what kind of smartness is that? Watch me perform an even smarter act!"

Liu Ying proudly raised an eyebrow, then took out her phone, scrolled to a name in the contacts, and dialed it directly.

This call was to Lin Tong!

At the same time.

In the CEO's office of Tongxuan Group.

Lin Tong was sitting behind her desk, carefully reviewing the documents Su Yumo had delivered, holding a pen in her hand, occasionally making notes.

Just then, her phone on the desk suddenly rang, interrupting Lin Tong's train of thought, causing her to look away momentarily.

Putting down the document, she picked up the phone that was ringing and saw it was Liu Ying calling. Lin Tong raised an eyebrow and then pressed the answer key, saying calmly, "This is Lin Tong, what do you need from me?"

"CEO Lin, I just heard some bad news. While it's not very serious, I think it's necessary to let you know, so you can be mentally prepared."

As soon as the call connected, Liu Ying's serious voice came through.

"What do you want to say?" Lin Tong asked with a frown.

"The big guy... oh, I mean, your husband is missing," Liu Ying said seriously.

"What? Ye Xuan is missing?!"

Lin Tong was slightly stunned, her gaze immediately hardening, and she said, "Explain clearly what exactly is going on?"
