Chapter 169 Wife, I Miss You

Don't forget, Bai Yan and her mother are still in my hands.

Damn it!

Xia Yue has been too busy lately and actually forgot about this.

When she left the Bai family, she was targeted by Qin Yeting, and Bai Yan and her mother were temporarily entrusted to Gu Chen.

At that time, Gu Chen had not yet revealed his true colors.

If Xia Yue had known he was this kind of person, she would never have agreed.

Given Gu Chen's intelligence and knowledge of disguise, he must know Bai Yan's true identity and her feigned death to escape from Mo Xiao.

If Gu Chen tells Mo Xiao about this, Bai Yan's life will be completely over.

Xia Yue grew angrier and angrier the more she thought about it, yet she also felt...

She gripped her phone tightly, pulled Gu Chen's number out of the blacklist, and called him back.

"What exactly do you want to do?" Xia Yue roared in a low voice.

"Junior sister, don't be angry. I just want your forgiveness." Gu Chen's voice sounded somewhat humble.

Xia Yue didn't believe even a single punctuation mark.

She said directly, "I'm living at the Feng family's place now. It's very safe here. I don't need you to take care of them anymore. I'll send someone to pick them up."

“They’ve lived here for so long and they’ve gotten used to it. If you want to see them, you can come over in person.” Gu Chen’s meaning was clear.

He won't release her, and he'll use that to threaten Xia Yue.

You despicable scoundrel!

Xia Yue cursed Gu Chen eighteen times in her heart, and finally suppressed her anger and said, "Gu Chen, if you have a problem, come at me. Don't drag innocent bystanders into this."

"You schemed against Qin Yeting, arranging for a fake 'white moonlight' to get close to him. Was there any point in doing that?"

"How is it not interesting? If Qin Yeting had been with He Lu back then, you would have been mine!" Gu Chen's tone also began to show impatience.

His plan failed, and he accidentally injured Xia Yue, leaving him very frustrated.

What frustrated him even more was what Xia Yue said next.

"I can never be yours. I used to treat you as a senior brother, or half an older brother."

From now on, you will be my enemy!

I am becoming more and more certain that you were responsible for Master's disappearance. Your so-called protection of me and not telling me the truth were all lies!

I will never trust you again. If you refuse to hand them over, I will use my own methods to rescue them!

After Xia Yue finished speaking, she hung up the phone again.

To prevent Gu Chen from harassing her with text messages again, she turned off her phone.

She was as decisive as she was when she made those harsh words, but as cowardly as she was when she shut down her phone.

She was actually afraid that Gu Chen would do something underhanded to Bai Yan, but it was precisely at times like these that she needed to remain calm.

Bai Yan was, after all, the person Mo Xiao liked, so even if Gu Chen was very capable, he wouldn't dare to really do anything to her.

Thinking of this, Xia Yue decided to take a bath first to calm herself down.

While she was taking a bath, Qin Yeting called, but he couldn't get through.

Unable to contact Xia Yue, Qin Yeting became extremely anxious.

"Boss, your wife is staying at the Feng family's place. If there's any movement, our spies will report to you immediately. You don't need to worry too much," Shang Zexi reassured him.

Qin Yeting did not accept this explanation.

He lost Xia Yue time and time again, and every time he couldn't contact her, something bad would happen, which made him feel very insecure.

Qin Yeting said coldly, "I'll leave the rest of the meeting to you. I'm going to the Feng family."

"No, boss, I can't do this alone." Shang Zexi quickly stopped Qin Yeting.

Qin Yeting pushed him away, saying, "I've already finished the important meeting. The rest is just a formality."

After saying that, Qin Yeting got into the black Rolls-Royce, leaving Shang Zexi standing alone in the cold wind, bewildered.

As the city lights begin to twinkle and the night deepens, so too does the darkness.

Bright city lights illuminate the night sky, while the moon hides in a silvery-gray hue, lonely and cold.

When Qin Yeting drove to the Feng family's house, most of the family members were asleep, and the gate was closed, so they wouldn't receive any guests.

Qin Yeting sneaked in.

Fortunately, he had arranged for spies to be stationed at the Feng family's residence. The spies told him that Xia Yue did not go to Old Madam Feng's place tonight, but stayed at Feng Yao's residence.

They live right next to Feng Yao.

Qin Yeting had a talent for being a thief, and he easily climbed into Xia Yue's room.

As soon as he entered, he heard Xia Yue taking a bath in the bathroom.

While soaking in the water, she sang "Little Green Dragon" on the phone. She was tone-deaf, but she sang it very cutely.

Qin Yeting smiled and couldn't help but sit on the bed and listen.

There was also a cell phone next to him.

Qin Yeting picked it up to check and found that it was indeed turned off, so he put it back.

Xia Yue, who was in the bathroom, was completely unaware that there was another person in the room.

After she finished her bath, she realized something embarrassing: she hadn't brought any change of clothes with her.

Fortunately, there was no one else in the house. After drying herself off, she went out naked and openly to find clothes.

But when she stepped out of the bathroom, she found a man suddenly on the bed.

"ah--"

Xia Yue screamed instinctively!

Feng Yao, who was still awake next door, heard Xia Yue's voice and hurriedly asked, "Little sister, what's wrong?"

"Shh~" Qin Yeting gestured for Xia Yue to be quiet.

"It's nothing, just a cockroach," Xia Yue replied as she went back into the bathroom and closed the door.

Qin Yeting had just admired a painting of a beautiful woman emerging from a bath, and was in a very good mood.

He opened the wardrobe, found a nightgown inside, then walked to the bathroom door and said softly, "Open the door, I got you a dress."

"Get out! Get out!" Xia Yue's voice was urgent, her face flushed with embarrassment.
