Chapter 263: Having to accept the fact that Shen Zhichu left

Shen Zhichu is missing, she ran away.

Li Jingshen sorted out all his thoughts back and forth, and Shen Zhichu wanted to escape from him from the beginning.

She first signed the surgical agreement to let him down, and used his guilt to make him stay away from her for a week.

After that, she took advantage of his laxity and escaped.

Li Jingshen never thought that Shen Zhichu would leave him like this. She had lost her memory, her nerves had not recovered yet, and now she was pregnant and had no money.

Who else does she know besides him?

Li Jingshen hung up the phone and walked out of the meeting room, leaving Zhao Qian in charge.

………….

Li Jingshen took the car keys and drove straight to the parking lot. His hands were shaking when he opened the door. Sitting in the car, he called Shen Zhichu.

"Sorry, the number you dialed is turned off..."

When Li Jingshen heard the voice, his breath stopped and his heart felt cold, as if the coldness in the voice penetrated his pores, entered his blood, and reached his heart.

He was afraid that Shen Zhichu would leave him, and even more afraid that something would happen to her. Where could she go when she was pregnant and sick? Did she bring her medicine?

And will she go to the hospital and find out that she has stomach cancer, thus recovering her memory?

All sorts of anticipations raced through his mind, each one frightening him.

The three words "Chen Zhichu" kept circling in Li Jingshen's mind, like a blunt knife stabbing into it, making his brain a mess.

Because it rained last night, a layer of mist condensed on the car windows, making the scenery outside hazy. Li Jingshen opened the car window and started the wipers to clean the glass surface.

There was a thick smell of humidity in the air. Li Jingshen drove back to the villa. It was still the same as usual, with no changes.

Lunch was set on the table. Housekeeper Li, Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Zhang, and even the cat were there. Everything seemed normal, but...

Li Jingshen rushed upstairs, the bedroom door was wide open, and Shen Zhichu was gone.

None of the three people in the villa knew when Shen Zhichu left.

Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Liu went to buy groceries. Housekeeper Li was called over by the property management for a while and asked someone to repair the surveillance camera.

Shen Zhichu left during this period.

The surveillance camera has been repaired now, but it is of no use because it didn't capture the footage it was supposed to capture.

Li Jingshen glanced around the bedroom. He had a good memory and knew that Shen Zhichu had taken away a few clothes and two pieces of jewelry, and nothing else.

She left so quietly that Li Jingshen still hadn't come to his senses.

Li Jingshen flipped through the text messages on his phone and saw a message about withdrawing 200,000 yuan. Such a small amount of money seemed insignificant in the message.

………

Li Jingshen asked people to check various stations, terminals and other platforms to see if there was any information about Shen Zhichu.

While personally checking the nearby surveillance cameras, he found Shen Zhichu immediately because he knew the approximate time. He saw Shen Zhichu with loose hair and wearing a mask going to a nearby bank to withdraw money, and then he disappeared while walking.

The whole person just disappeared in the crowd. When someone went to investigate the station records, Li Jingshen took this opportunity to look through the recent videos of the villa.

From the day he left, he saw Shen Zhichu standing behind the curtains, watching him go, his mouth moving silently.

The video was clear enough that he could tell from her lip movements that she was saying "goodbye" to him.

Li Jingshen's mouth was bitter. Didn't we say goodbye? Why did you disappear when I came back?

Li Jingshen's eyes felt sore and his heart felt like it was filled with lead and iron, sinking continuously.

He stared at the video with bloodshot eyes, his hand holding the mouse trembling constantly. He saw Shen Zhichu squatting on the ground, covering his face, crying very sadly, his thin shoulders trembling.

He could clearly feel Shen Zhichu's reluctance. Why did she leave him if she was so sad?

Was it because she dreamed of Bai Qiu, or was it because she was afraid that he would abort the baby in her belly.

Maybe both...

After Shen Zhichu lost her memory, she became much more timid and didn't like to contact the outside world. How tight did he have to be to force her away?

The surveillance video is not all-round. Due to privacy considerations, the bed and bathroom areas cannot be seen.

After reading this paragraph, Li Jingshen stopped reading. He turned off the computer and began to ask if anyone had found any information about Shen Zhichu.

When he thought of Shen Zhichu trembling while pregnant in an unfamiliar place, something in his heart seemed to be shattered.

And when he thought about her stomach cancer attack, vomiting blood and fainting, being met by bad guys, and encountering a series of tragic situations, Li Jingshen was so nervous that his scalp went numb and he didn't even dare to breathe.

………….

It was not until five o'clock in the afternoon that Li Jingshen got the news that Shen Zhichu had gone to City A.

It takes eight hours to get from City J to City A by train. Shen Zhichu is almost there now, and Li Jingshen has booked the earliest flight to City A.

But when he got there, there was no news of Shen Zhichu.

City A is not as safe as City J. It is a mixed crowd of people and good and bad people. If someone wants to stay here on purpose, finding her would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Zhao Qian was responsible for finding information about Shen Zhichu. The professional gave him a video of the train station. A familiar figure was mixed in among the huge crowd. After a while, she raised her head and said three words in the direction of the monitor.

At night, Zhao Qian forwarded the video to Li Jingshen.

Li Jingshen saw what Shen Zhichu said, and she said, "I'm leaving."

His expression was flat without a trace of change, not even a hint of sadness.

In just two days, he has become a completely different person. From the person who said "goodbye" painfully at the beginning, he can now say "I'm leaving" calmly.

She looked at the surveillance camera, obviously anticipating that he would be able to find her, and also proved with her own actions that she wanted to escape from his control.

Li Jingshen no longer wanted to admit it, but he had to accept the fact that Shen Zhichu had escaped from him.

It's ridiculous to think about it. Before Shen Zhichu lost his memory, he pushed her so hard, but she never left him.

After she lost her memory, he loved her with all his heart, but she left.

Where can Shen Zhichu go when he arrives in City A?

……….

Chen Zhichu was very smart. After arriving in City A, she took various buses to change routes. She bought a map and a pen on the roadside and drew lines to determine how to start and where to end.

After stopping at a remote small town, Shen Zhichu breathed a sigh of relief. After a week of bumpy ride, his bones were almost falling apart.

She barely managed to get through the past few days on one breath. She was pregnant and weak, and the buses in the town were smelly and crowded, so she either stood or sat in the last seat.

There were so many people, and Shen Zhichu was afraid of pickpockets that he didn't dare to close his eyes and rest in the car.
