Chapter 190 Zhao Yuanzhao's persistence
There was a sense of disappointment in his tone. If it weren't for the years of friendship, he would probably have reprimanded him more harshly at this moment.
"Mr. Feng, Chuchu is missing. Do you have any way to find her now?" Nan Zhiyu said worriedly.
Ever since she last contacted Li Ruochu, her cell phone was taken away again. She was extremely anxious and didn't know how Li Ruochu was doing now.
"Don't worry, she is safe now." Feng Yizhou frowned slightly, trying to make his tone sound calmer, attempting to soothe Nan Zhiyu's emotions.
After hearing this, Nan Zhiyu's frown instantly relaxed and a look of relief suddenly appeared on her face.
She let out a breath, as if the huge rock that had been weighing on her heart for days had finally fallen to the ground.
"Do you know where she is now?" Nan Zhiyu was still a little worried. After all, she had been living in fear these days.
The horrifying scene of Li Ruochu being caught by the pervert Zhong Tingyan kept appearing in my mind, and my heart was always in my throat.
"She is at the Ji family now. Li Ruchu is not as fragile as you think." Feng Yizhou narrowed his eyes slightly, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
In fact, in his heart, he felt that Li Ruchu was an incredible woman.
After coming to this unfamiliar place, she suddenly became the adopted daughter of the Ji family without any help from others.
This is not something that ordinary people can do. He really admires her courage and wisdom.
"Ji family? Why would she go to the Ji family?" Nan Zhiyu's eyes widened, full of confusion, and there seemed to be countless small question marks spinning in her head. She really couldn't figure out how Li Ruochu could be related to the Ji family.
Feng Yizhou smiled calmly, and that smile seemed to hide endless secrets.
He didn't explain anything afterwards. After all, the fewer people who knew about this matter, the better.
The complex relationship involved cannot be explained in a few words, and the more people know about it, the greater the risk of leakage.
Feng Yizhou took Jiang Mu and Nan Zhiyu away from the hotel.
Along the way, Nan Zhiyu was thinking about the relationship between Li Ruochu and the Ji family in her mind, and had no intention of appreciating the scenery outside the car window.
When Nan Zhiyu arrived at the Pei family's castle, she was so shocked by the scene before her that she opened her mouth wide, her face full of shock.
The ancient castle looks particularly mysterious and solemn in the night, with its tall walls, staggered towers, and windows shining with dim lights.
She had only seen such scenes on TV, but had never imagined that she would actually be able to come to such an ancient and legendary place.
However, in addition to being shocked, what puzzled Nan Zhiyu the most was why Feng Yizhou was in the Pei family.
She couldn't help but turn her head to look at Feng Yizhou and asked, "Boss Feng, why is your last name Pei?"
Jiang Mu saw this and thought to himself that something was wrong. His expression changed instantly. He immediately reached out and pulled his girlfriend behind him, saying anxiously, "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask."
He was well aware of Feng Yizhou's complicated background, and such a question was likely to touch Feng Yizhou's sensitive nerves.
"Because my grandmother's second husband's surname was Pei." Feng Yizhou was not angry. Instead, he explained calmly. His voice was particularly clear in the quiet atmosphere of the castle.
"So you were adopted into this family, right?" Nan Zhiyu was completely unaware that her words were a little inappropriate. Out of curiosity, she asked again.
Jiang Mu was stunned when he heard this, his eyes widened and his face was full of fear.
He hurried forward and wanted to cover her mouth with his hand to stop her from continuing, fearing that Feng Yizhou would get angry.
However, after hearing this, Feng Yizhou unexpectedly laughed, and that laughter broke the tense atmosphere in the air.
He looked at Nan Zhiyu and nodded: "You're right!" He didn't seem to mind Nan Zhiyu's direct question.
If it weren't for grandma's endless desire for power, she wouldn't have been so cruel as to divorce grandpa and turn into the arms of that man named Pei.
Feng Yizhou narrowed his eyes slightly, and his thoughts involuntarily drifted back to the past.
He still remembers that the atmosphere at home was so depressing that it was suffocating, and his parents' faces were covered with worries all day long.
In order to realize her ambition, grandma resolutely made the decision that changed the fate of the family.
But the man surnamed Pei seemed like a cruel joke played by fate.
He passed away just two years after being married to my grandmother, leaving behind a bunch of complicated affairs and a huge fortune.
And all of this can only naturally fall on grandma's shoulders.
With this unexpected wealth, grandma's position in the business world became increasingly solid, but the conflicts and rifts within the family were also quietly deepening.
Nan Zhiyu listened quietly to Feng Yizhou's story, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart that there was such a complicated story hidden behind it. It seems that President Feng's ability is indeed far more than what meets the eye.
She nodded slightly, with a hint of understanding and sympathy in her eyes.
"Then when can we see Chuchu?" Nan Zhiyu was still worried about Li Ruchu and asked anxiously.
She was now filled with anxiety, and she had to see with her own eyes that Li Ruchu was safe and sound before she could finally feel at ease.
"I will let you meet after some time. My current situation is special and I cannot recognize her for the time being. I also hope that you can keep it a secret for the time being."
Feng Yizhou looked solemn, with a hint of helplessness and worry in his tone.
After all, his mother was still under the control of his grandmother, as if someone was strangling her.
If this crisis cannot be overcome smoothly, I am afraid that he and Li Ruochu will face more difficulties and obstacles, and experience more ups and downs.
Although Nan Zhiyu was full of doubts, she didn't understand why Feng Yizhou couldn't recognize Li Ruchu.
But from his story, one can also feel that his life experience is complicated, and there are many conflicts of interest involved behind it.
After thinking for a moment, she felt that it would be better to listen to Feng Yizhou.
After all, less trouble is worse than more, so he nodded slightly to show his agreement.
At this time, the night was deep and the clock was quietly pointing to midnight.
The Zhao family's banquet finally came to an end amidst laughter and a feeling of reluctance to leave.
The bright lights gradually dimmed, the guests dispersed, and the bustling venue gradually returned to calm.
Zhao Yuanzhao was extremely anxious and hurried out of the banquet hall.
He searched the crowd eagerly, but he could no longer find the familiar figure that he was missing.
He frowned slightly, feeling a little disappointed, and secretly guessed that maybe the person had already returned home.
Zhao Ranbei looked at his elder brother's anxious expression, his heart filled with confusion.
He really didn't understand why his elder brother was so obsessed with that woman.
She is just an adopted daughter of the Ji family. What is so special about her that can make the eldest brother so excited that he can't wait to find her?
