Chapter 83 She Doesn't Know Where She Is

Shen Qinghuan lowered her head, her thin body trembling slightly uncontrollably. A familiar ringtone rang in her ears, which seemed particularly abrupt in the quiet night and made her less afraid.

But the bone-chilling cold still made her uncomfortable, and she hugged her frail body tightly.

After a while, so long that she thought Jiang Yu wouldn't answer her phone, a low, hoarse voice suddenly rang in her ears: "What's going on?"

"Jiang Yu!"

When this name came out of her mouth, there was a barely perceptible sob.

On the other end of the phone, Jiang Yu seemed to notice something was wrong with Shen Qinghuan and quickly asked, "Where are you?"

"I, I don't know where I am either."

When Shen Qinghuan said this, the sob in her voice had gradually become obvious, but more of it was fear, the fear and uneasiness brought to her by the darkness and the unknown.

Jiang Yu's expression changed instantly when he heard that, and his brows furrowed tightly. "Shen Qinghuan, what do you mean you don't even know where you are?" His voice was filled with anxiety and nervousness, and his voice unconsciously rose.

There was clearly nervousness in his tone, but to Shen Qinghuan it sounded like a reproach.

She felt inexplicably aggrieved, and a trace of bitterness welled up in her heart. However, because of Jiang Yu's scolding, she calmed down a little and tried to organize her words: "I really don't know where I am. After I left the company, I took a taxi on the side of the road. Because I was a little sleepy, I told the driver to wake me up when we arrived.

He called me, but I opened my eyes..."

Shen Qinghuan bit the corner of her lip, tears had accumulated in her eyes, gradually blurring her vision.

"This was a completely unfamiliar place. I didn't know who it was. Later, the driver asked me to get off and drove away."

Because of her fear, she was a little incoherent.

Jiang Yu tugged at his tie irritably and said calmly, "Shen Qinghuan, send your location right now. I'll come find you. Remember, don't run around. Just stand there and wait for me."

"I know, I'll send it to you now."

After she finished speaking, Shen Qinghuan was about to send Jiang Yu her location, but the next second, her phone ran out of battery and turned off.

Shen Qinghuan was stunned for a moment, and his face turned pale.

The wind suddenly blew past my ears, and faint sounds of giggling and rustling were heard in the silent night.

She was so startled that she looked around quickly, but it was still pitch black.

Shen Qinghuan didn't dare to stay for a second and hurriedly walked towards the street light not far away.

Places with light don't seem so scary.

She stood anxiously under the streetlight, the dim light stretching her shadow out. Shen Qinghuan closed her eyes tightly, took a deep breath, and tried to calm herself down.

Suddenly she thought of something and a hint of joy flashed in her eyes.

The taxi just now left in that direction. If she keeps walking along this bumpy road, does it mean that she will be able to find a flat road?

Thinking this in her heart, she immediately plucked up the courage to move forward.

At this time, Jiang Yu was still waiting for Shen Qinghuan to send her the location, but a few minutes passed and there was no movement on his phone. The dialog box with Shen Qinghuan still showed the message Shen Qinghuan sent him a few days ago.

Is she playing a trick on him?

Or does he want to use this to verify her position in his heart?

Thinking of this, Jiang Yu's face immediately darkened, just like the moment before a storm.

He wanted to put away his phone and ask He Xian to drive him back, but Shen Qinghuan's choked voice suddenly echoed in his ears, and he even felt that she had cried at that moment.

Jiang Yu lowered his eyes slightly, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes. He knew Shen Qinghuan's character a little bit. Since they got married, she had never shown weakness in front of him, let alone asked him for help.

Could it be...that something really happened to her?

After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Yu quickly picked up his phone, found Shen Qinghuan's phone number in the call log, and called back.

"The user you dialed has turned off his phone. Please try again later! The user you dialed..."

Turn off the phone? Jiang Yu frowned, anger welling up in his eyes. She just made a call and turned it off without asking for help? Was she deliberately making him worry? Shen Qinghuan, what on earth do you want to do?

But soon, he gritted his teeth and rejected the idea.

Maybe her phone suddenly ran out of battery.

As soon as this thought came to his mind, Jiang Yu quickly dialed Zhou Cheng's cell phone number, "Chengzi, Shen Qinghuan might have been in trouble. Please help me retrieve the surveillance footage near Jiang's Building. It was around nine o'clock tonight. She got into a taxi..."

After a pause, he added, "Have your people determine the taxi's destination as quickly as possible."

Zhou Cheng was stunned when he heard the news. He asked anxiously, "Brother Yu, what happened to my sister Huan?"

"Don't ask so many questions first, just do as I say."

"I know, Brother Yu."

…

Zhou Cheng was the only one in their compound who took the exam. Shi Beichuan tried to persuade him at that time, but he was determined to take the exam and no one could persuade him. Later, everyone figured it out and decided that since he wanted to take the exam so much, they would let him take it and fully support him. Who would have thought that he would do well in the exam and he got second place in the academic performance and was also among the best in the interview.

He has been working in the system for the past few years, and although his income is much lower than theirs, he enjoys it.

After Zhou Cheng received Jiang Yu's call, he immediately drove to the office. On the way, he called his colleagues on duty and urged them to get the matter done first.

Before he arrived at the office, his colleagues called him and said that they saw the girl he was looking for get into a taxi. Zhou Cheng asked them to keep watching the taxi until it stopped.

Jiang Yu sat here with his eyes closed, waiting patiently for Zhou Cheng to reply.

He knew very well that South City was so big that he couldn't look for her aimlessly. He had to know where she went. Only by knowing the approximate range could he find her.

A bright white lightning, like a sharp sword, suddenly split the thick, inky night. Immediately afterwards, rumbling thunder sounded continuously, and a heavy rain was about to fall.

Jiang Yu couldn't help but get anxious. He looked down at his phone and tried to dial Shen Qinghuan's number.

The cold voice of the mobile secretary still lingered in my ears: "The user you dialed has switched off his phone. Please try again later! The user you dialed..."

After hanging up, he called Zhou Cheng again.

"Chengzi, do you have any news?"

"Brother Yu, don't worry. I just arrived at the office, but my colleagues told me that they have found the taxi that my sister Huan got in, and that the taxi was heading east."

"Then I'll wait for your news."

…

At that time, Shen Qinghuan was walking towards the light, one step deep and one step shallow. There were street lights in the distance. The distance between each street light here was a little far, and some of them were broken.

She had not walked far when she suddenly heard a burst of rapid dog barking, which seemed particularly abrupt in the quiet night.

Shen Qinghuan was so frightened that his face changed instantly, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, as if it was being toyed with.

Suppressing the fear in her heart, she unconsciously jogged, her heartbeat beneath her ribs becoming increasingly panicked.
