Chapter 99 99 Missing
Su Xiao and Shu Bowen were leisurely strolling through the small mountain village.
Meanwhile, the main branch of the Su family in the southern city was in complete chaos.
Three days later, Su Dayong and Liu Cuihua went to the supply and marketing cooperative early in the morning to queue up and bought pork, fish and chicken, which was quite a large purchase.
They were all waiting for the prospective in-laws to come, and the whole family took time off work, including Su Ming and Li Qin, who were called back. This shows how much the Su family valued the Shu family's visit.
But after waiting and waiting, even past eleven o'clock, no one came.
Liu Cuihua immediately became anxious and pulled Su Peipei aside to ask what was going on, "Peipei, why haven't they arrived yet? Did you tell them the address?"
Even at this point, she still refused to believe that the other person wouldn't come, and kept making excuses for them.
Su Peipei's face was dark and gloomy. Her hands were clenched into fists, and her nails were digging deep into her flesh, but she couldn't feel it.
"I'll go take a look." She frowned, stood up, and left.
Li Qin nudged Su Ming, who was standing next to her, and gave him a meaningful look.
Su Ming was stunned, not understanding why. Li Qin was really disappointed in him and said in a low voice, "Go with your sister."
This is the perfect time to win someone's favor, but why is this simpleton so clueless?
"Oh, okay." With Li Qin's reminder, Su Ming immediately stood up and followed. "Peipei, wait for your big brother, I'll take you there on my bike."
Su Peipei did not refuse, and the two went to the factory's residential area.
Knowing the way well, she arrived at the Shu family's house, only to find the gate closed. Furious, she pounded on the door, making a loud banging noise. "Factory Director Shu, open the door! Shu Bowen, open the door..."
The commotion startled the neighbors, who all came out to check.
"Who are you? What's going on?" The neighbor came out angrily, immediately yelling, "Are you out of your mind? You're banging so loudly, even a ghost could hear you. If no one answers, you should know no one's home..."
"Yeah, who are you? Do you have a grudge against Factory Director Shu or something?"
As more and more people gathered to watch the spectacle, Su Peipei panicked. She wanted to say something, but remained silent.
It would be easy for her to frame Shu Bowen, but it would also damage her own reputation, which was not what she wanted to see.
"What do you know? My sister is talking to the Shu family's son..."
Before Su Ming could finish speaking, Su Peipei grabbed him, saying, "Big brother, stop talking, let's go."
"Huh? Where are we going?" Su Ming was dragged away by Su Peipei in a daze.
The two arrived at the machinery factory. It was lunchtime, and the gatekeeper asked what was going on. When he learned that they were looking for Shu Bowen, he registered them and let them in.
Su Xiao headed straight for the workshop where Shu Bowen used to work, but stood at the door without daring to go in, afraid of being arrested again.
After waiting for a while, someone returned. Upon seeing Su Peipei, the person remembered her and asked, "Why are you here again?"
"Where's Shu Bowen? I'm looking for him," Su Peipei asked anxiously, grabbing the other person's arm.
Yes, she was in a hurry and not as calm as she appeared.
"Shu Bowen? He's already resigned, didn't you know?" The other person seemed a little puzzled by her relationship with Shu Bowen.
"Resigned?" Su Peipei stared wide-eyed in disbelief, deeply shocked and bewildered, muttering, "How is this possible? It can't be."
"What's impossible? He's just gone."
Su Peipei gripped tighter and tighter, which annoyed the other person. His arm ached from her grip, so he flung her away, but he also flung her off.
"Peipei, are you alright?" Su Ming quickly stepped forward to help her up.
