Tong Xiaohuai returned to the hotel, took a shower, and lay in bed, but surprisingly, she couldn't fall asleep at all.
She hadn't slept for a day and a night, but she just couldn't close her eyes and sleep.
She was worried about Yanbo, but the fact that Yanbo's parents' attitude, which left no room for compromise, also troubled her.
The phone, which she had been holding in her hand, remained silent. Tong Xiaohuai unlocked the phone and began typing the message word by word.
"Yanbo, where are you? What should I do?"
After typing the message, her finger hovered over the send button for a long time, but in the end, she deleted the message word by word.
She is indeed under a lot of pressure right now, and she is also feeling very upset.
But Yanbo must be under even more pressure than her, and he must be feeling even worse inside.
Because he is going against the parents who gave him life and raised him.
She's an adult, not a child. She promised to protect this relationship with him, so she shouldn't have gone to Yanbo to complain about such a small thing.
At times like these, she should be Yanbo's support, not his burden.
After figuring it out, Tong Xiaohuai sighed softly and retyped a string of words on her phone.
"Auntie is in much better spirits today. The doctor said the inflammation has lessened, so you don't need to worry too much."
After the message was sent, there was still no reply for a long time.
In the end, she couldn't quite remember how she fell asleep.
When she woke up, it was already afternoon. Tong Xiaohuai checked the time and couldn't help but feel a little strange that Brother Yang hadn't bothered her at all.
Yang Ge's room was next door, but Tong Xiaohuai was too lazy to get up and dialed the phone while still in bed.
"Brother Yang, why didn't you call me? Have you had lunch?" Tong Xiaohuai's voice was still a little sleepy, with a lazy tone.
The other party paused for a moment, then said, "Miss, you're awake? I'm not at the hotel right now. If you're hungry, you can call the front desk and have them deliver your food."
Tong Xiaohuai asked casually, "Are you at the hospital?"
She assumed that after taking a nap, Brother Yang would return to the hospital to continue his stalking.
There was another moment of silence on the other end, and then someone said, "No, Miss, I'm near the Third Young Master's house."
The Yan family's residence wasn't too far from the hotel where Tong Xiaohuai was currently staying. Upon hearing Yang Ge's words, Tong Xiaohuai's first reaction was to prop herself up and sit up.
"Are you near his house? Wait for me, I'm coming over now."
"No! I've been keeping watch all morning, and there's been no movement at all. Wait for me at the hotel, and I'll bring you some food."
Yang Ge came as a bodyguard, so he naturally knew that it was a bit dangerous to leave Tong Xiaohuai alone in the hotel.
Of course, the Tong family couldn't possibly have any enemies in the capital, but the Yan family might do something outrageous.
After thinking about it, Tong Xiaohuai also felt that it was indeed unlikely that Yan Bo would stay in the Yan family.
"Okay, then I'll wait for you to come back."
About half an hour later, Brother Yang returned with food. The two ate and chatted, and in the end, they basically came to the same conclusion.
They have nothing here, and the only people they know are a few from the Yan family and Tao Jia. If the Yan family really has hidden Yan Bo, even if she stays here, she won't be able to find him.
"Brother Yang, I think we should go back to L City first."
Tong Xiaohuai felt a little guilty that her parents were still on vacation and all the family's affairs were on Uncle Ming's shoulders.
She has been in charge of the Tong family's affairs for more than half a year. In the past six months, she has experienced a lot, but not a little. The last crisis made her feel the pressure and responsibility of being the head of the Tong family.
"That third young master..."
In Brother Yang's eyes, Tong Xiaohuai was both his boss and a little girl he adored.
"Let's go back first, then ask someone to inquire further, and then make arrangements according to the situation."
Staying here is just a waste of time.
After thinking it through, Tong Xiaohuai and Brother Yang immediately set off, checked out of their hotel, and headed to the airport.
Before boarding the plane, Tong Xiaohuai sent Yan Bo another message.
"I'm going back to L City to handle some business. If you receive this message, please remember to reply."
After sending it, she felt a lump in her throat and typed a few more words before sending it again.
I miss you so much!
Back in L City, it was already past eight o'clock. As soon as she stepped out of the airport, Tong Xiaohuai saw Qin Ming, who had come to pick her up.
"Uncle Ming, I'm sorry, you've worked so hard!"
Qin Ming patted her on the shoulder, opened the car door, and let her get in.
“I’ve already asked a few friends to help me inquire. You can also ask the eldest son of the Yan family to see if they have any clues.”
Tong Xiaohuai shook her head, "I asked, but Brother Yan couldn't say for sure, and neither could my second sister."
In fact, both Brother Yan and Sister Yan had said similar things to Tong Xiaohuai: "I don't object to you, but I won't deliberately help you in any way."
Tong Xiaohuai felt that both Brother Yan and Sister Yan should know where Yan Bo was, but deliberately kept it a secret because they were on their parents' side in this matter.
Tong Xiaohuai had no right to blame them, after all, from their perspective, it was indeed safer to take Yanbo away from her.
"Then there's nothing I can do but ask around through the people I've asked."
Qin Ming pondered for a while, then reminded Tong Xiaohuai, "Does the Third Young Master have any friends you know? You can try to find them and ask."
During the day and night that Tong Xiaohuai sat in the hospital corridor, he had basically filtered out all of these things.
She even called the accountant partner who had been introduced to her by Yanbo to check her accounts.
The other party gave her this reply: "I'm sorry, I really don't know his whereabouts. However, there are many reasons why someone with his special status could disappear. As long as his family doesn't seem to be acting strangely, you can rest assured."
The implication is that as long as the rest of the Yan family reacts calmly, it can be confirmed that Yan Bo is perfectly safe.
"Uncle Ming, I'm a little tired and want to take a nap. I'm home now, could you please wake me up?"
Tong Xiaohuai really wanted to talk to Qin Ming about Yanbo's affairs and the Tong family's affairs during her absence these past two days, but she just couldn't hold on any longer. Her eyelids were drooping, and her mind felt completely blank.
The day after returning to L City, Tong Xiaohuai went to Yanhuang.
Di Xu had already learned from the phone call that Yan Bo had suddenly disappeared, but he came from an ordinary family, and the most powerful people he knew were probably Yan Bo, Tong Xiaohuai, and Tao Jia.
Therefore, although he was anxious about this matter, he couldn't help Tong Xiaohuai much.
"Senior brother, please don't say that. We are already very grateful that you are watching over Yanhuang!"
She wasn't stupid; she could tell as soon as she entered the company that even without Yan Bo, Yanhuang was still operating smoothly without any major problems. This was largely thanks to the efforts of Di Xu and Miss Guo.
"Why are you saying all this polite stuff? The most important thing right now is to find the boss as soon as possible, isn't it?"
