Chapter 3 My Wife is Missing



Five hours ago, Lin's Private Hospital in S City——

"Mr. Lin, Mr. Lin, you can't be discharged from the hospital now!"

The attending physician tried to dissuade him earnestly, but the handsome man who walked out of the ward turned a deaf ear to him.

"Mr. Lin, you just had a fracture surgery. Wouldn't it be better for you to recuperate in the hospital?" The subordinate in a suit joined in the persuasion.

The man suddenly stopped, his eyes cold.

His face was angular, his thick eyebrows bulging, his eyes dark and deep, his features as three-dimensional as if carved with a knife. His usually meticulously combed hair was now disheveled by the bandage on his forehead. His left arm was in a plaster cast, bandaged and hung across his chest. A silver suit jacket was draped over his shoulders, his shirt slightly open, revealing his toned chest and abdominal muscles.

The subordinates were glared at by him coldly, lowered their heads guiltily, and dared not say anything more.

He should never, ever, have hung up Mrs. Lin's call, and he should not have listened to Zhan Yang and turned off the phone. At this moment, Xu Yunzhuo wished he could go back to the night before.

However, if you really think about it, you can't blame him, right?

Mr. Lin is usually serious and old-fashioned, and he even marked his wife's nickname on the caller ID as "Ling Bao".

The day before yesterday morning, he and Zhan Yang waited anxiously outside the operating room, their nerves tense and under immense pressure, fearing that something might happen to Mr. Lin. Suddenly, Mr. Lin's phone, which he was holding, rang, and their first reaction was to hang up.

Mr. Lin, the helmsman of the Lin Group, met with a car accident in Country L and was in critical condition. Once the news leaked and his rivals seized the opportunity to create news, the stocks of the Lin Group would be in jeopardy.

For various reasons, Xu Yunzhuo and Zhan Yang strictly kept the news secret to prevent any hidden dangers. They are President Lin's left and right deputies and have certain decision-making power.

but--

There are exceptions to everything!

Xu Yunzhuo thought that the "Ling Bao" who called in the middle of the night was Mr. Lin's friend, so he hung up the phone as a matter of course. However, they never expected that the word "Bao" in "Ling Bao" actually means "baby"!

In other words, "Ling Bao" is a very, very close person to Mr. Lin!

When Mr. Lin woke up from his coma, he wanted to check his cell phone first. Xu Yunzhuo gave him the phone and reported the call to him.

Mr. Lin turned on his cell phone, stared at the call log, frowned, and quickly dialed the number, but the response was a cold electronic prompt tone.

"Sorry, the user you dialed is powered off or out of service area."

President Lin threw his phone away and ordered, "Immediately arrange... to return home!"

Xu Yunzhuo and Zhan Yang tried to dissuade him in every possible way, saying that he had just undergone a fracture surgery and was weak, so how could he travel such a long distance?

However, Mr. Lin was determined and no one could persuade him. Xu Yunzhuo had no choice but to arrange a private plane to return home smoothly and send Mr. Lin to the private hospital of Lin Group to continue treating his injuries.

After returning home, President Lin's frown remained unrelieved. He called "Ling Bao" over and over again, listening to the electronic tone over and over again. Finally, Xu Yunzhuo couldn't help but bite the bullet and ask, "President Lin, is this friend... important?"

Mr. Lin stopped dialing the phone and said expressionlessly, "She is my wife."

Xu Yunzhuo was shocked!

Lin...Mr. Lin’s wife?

Isn’t Mr. Lin’s wife called Su Ling?

etc!

Su Ling?

Ling Bao?

so--

Su Ling = Ling Bao = Mr. Lin’s wife!!

Xu Yunzhuo was petrified, staring blankly at President Lin struggling to get up from the hospital bed, grabbing the suit jacket on the chair with his intact right hand, and putting it on with difficulty.

As a result, Mr. Lin insisted on being discharged from the hospital despite the doctor's advice because he could not contact his wife.

Xu Yunzhuo knew that he was in the wrong. Due to a moment of thoughtlessness, President Lin was unable to contact Mrs. Lin, which made President Lin extremely anxious and desperate to go home.

Seeing his subordinates remain silent, Lin Feng continued to stride forward.

"Mr. Lin, wait a minute—" The doctor ignored everything else and only knew that his patient was trying to "escape." How could that be? With a serious and responsible attitude, he had to keep the patient!

The attending physician ran to Lin Bian and held out his hand to stop him. "If you have something important to do or someone important to meet, you can ask Assistant Xu. Why do you have to come in person? You just had surgery and flew on a plane. Your wound could easily open or become infected. Please consider this carefully."

Xu Yunzhuo took the opportunity to dissuade him: "Doctor Zhang is right. If Mr. Lin is worried, I can go to the Lin residence and help you see if Mrs. Lin is at home."

Lin Feng looked at him coldly.

Xu Yunzhuo endured the pressure and comforted her, "Mrs. Lin is an adult. She can't... lose it, right? She might forget to charge her phone... or lose it... It's all possible..."

The voice became lower and lower as he spoke, and Xu Yunzhuo's legs trembled at the sight of Mr. Lin's murderous gaze.

Did he say something wrong?

Why does Mr. Lin look so gloomy and terrifying?

"No need." Lin Feng said two words in a low voice, walked around the attending doctor and went to the elevator.

Xu Yunzhuo had no choice but to say a few words to the attending doctor and chase after him.

"Mr. Lin, my car is in the underground garage. I'll take you back."

This time, Lin Feng did not refuse.

Xu Yunzhuo secretly breathed a sigh of relief and was extremely envious of Zhan Yang who went to work in a company.

Xiangyanshan Villa District, S City——

The silver Lexus with smooth lines slowly stopped in the yard of an independent villa. Xu Yunzhuo got out of the driver's seat and quickly opened the back door.

"Mr. Lin, we're here." He said respectfully to the man who was sitting in the car with his eyes closed.

Lin Feng opened his eyes, got out of the car and walked towards the villa gate.

Xu Yunzhuo followed in silence, feeling uneasy. Although he was Lin Feng's right-hand man, this was his first time at the Lin residence. CEO Lin was very private; even after three years of marriage, he still hadn't seen what the CEO's wife looked like!

Lin Bian walked to the door of the villa expressionlessly and opened the iron door lock with his fingerprint.

"Isn't the Madam at home?" Xu Yunzhuo asked doubtfully. The yard was quiet, with no one in sight.

Lin Feng's face was tense and his eyes were deep. He continued to open the door with his fingerprint and walked into the living room.

"Ling?"

He called out in a low voice and looked towards the sofa as usual, but he did not see the young man who usually liked to sit on the sofa and drink afternoon tea.

"Ling Bao--" he called again, his tone gentle. Xu Yunzhuo, who was following behind, almost tripped, but he quickly grabbed the back of the sofa and avoided falling.

This... is this the Mr. Lin he knows?

Xu Yunzhuo was sweating profusely, looking as if he had seen a ghost. He felt embarrassed and didn't know whether he should stay there any longer.

When there was no response, a trace of worry flashed in Lin Feng's eyes, and he called out to the nanny: "Auntie He, Auntie He?"

In the huge villa, only Lin Feng's deep voice echoed.

Xu Yunzhuo was surprised.

Things are getting serious!

The president's wife isn't home, and even the babysitter is missing! Could it be... they've been kidnapped?

Lin Feng took out the cell phone from his suit pocket, found the nanny's number and dialed it.

Soon, the other party picked up the phone.

"Aunt He, where are you?" Lin Feng asked.

"Hey? Mr. Lin? You're back?" Aunt He said in surprise, "Mr. Su was thinking about you a few days ago!"

Lin Feng frowned, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said coldly: "Answer me, where are you, where is Su Ling?"

Aunt He quickly replied, "Yesterday, Mr. Su said he would give me two days off, so I went home. When I left, Mr. Su was still at home!"

Lin Feng asked, "Did he tell you anything before you left?"

Aunt He thought for a moment and said, "It seems so. Mr. Su said that when Mr. Lin comes back, he will ask you to go to the study. There is something on the table for you."

Lin Feng hung up the phone and walked quickly to the study upstairs.

Xu Yunzhuo followed him upstairs with a question mark on his face.

Since you have the nanny's phone number, why didn't you call her earlier to ask? Mr. Lin's thoughts are really hard to figure out.

Lin Feng pushed open the door of the study and stepped on a stack of rice paper as soon as he entered. Seeing the messy study, his face began to cloud over.

Xu Yunzhuo, who was following behind, stared wide-eyed at the scattered books, calligraphy and paintings, pens and inks, etc., and seriously suspected that the house had been burglarized.

Lin Feng ignored all these things and walked straight to the desk, where there was a mobile phone and a stack of papers. When the five words "divorce agreement" came into his sight, his face instantly lost color, and he felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His head was buzzing, and the wound on his forehead that had five stitches on it suddenly hurt. His eyes were blurred, and his tall body shook violently.

Xu Yunzhuo was startled and went forward to support him. Just as he was about to ask him what was wrong, he glanced at the "divorce agreement" on the document and opened his mouth in shock.

ah?

Mrs. Lin wants a divorce!

divorce!

After a brief dizziness, Lin Feng regained his composure and turned to go to the master bedroom.

Xu Yunzhuo followed hesitantly.

When the door of the master bedroom opened, the messy scene was even more exaggerated than that of the study.

All the closet doors were open, and clothes were scattered everywhere, one piece here, one piece there, and even more on the bed. The "thief" seemed to be ignorant of the value of things and actually threw clothes from the world's top brands on the ground at random.

Lin Feng avoided the clothes on the floor, walked into the bedroom, looked around, sat on the bed, took out his cell phone and made a call.

After a while, the other party picked up the phone, and Lin Feng asked directly: "Lin Zhou, where is Su Ling?"

_______

Su's old house——

Su Ling came back to his senses, took out a tissue, wiped the table where the instant noodle soup had splashed, and asked Lin Zhou as if nothing had happened: "He called you, what did he say?"

Lin Zhou looked at Su Ling through the phone screen. If he hadn't subconsciously frowned and bit his lip, he would have been fooled by the calm tone.

"Lin Feng asked me where I went."

"How do you answer him?"

Su Ling threw the used tissue into the newly bought trash can beside the table.

Lin Zhou spread his hands and said, "Of course I'm keeping my mouth shut out of brotherhood."

Su Ling clasped his hands together and stared at his phone: "What exactly do you want to say?"

Lin Zhou smiled, knowing that he was anxious, and said, "I said I don't know where you went."

"Thaksin?" Su Ling asked with a pair of beautiful eyes that clearly showed black and white.

"He definitely doesn't believe it." Lin Zhou touched his smooth chin, recalling the phone call in the afternoon.

Lin Feng asked him: "Where is Su Ling?"

He replied: "Su Ling? Isn't Su Ling at home every day?"

Lin Feng: "He's not at home."

Lin Zhou played dumb: "Not at home? No way! He's such a homebody, where else could he go? Did he go out to the park to sketch?"

Lin Feng: "He left me a divorce agreement."

Lin Zhou asked in a shocked tone: "What? Divorce agreement? No... Mr. Lin, did you do something to offend Su Ling? Otherwise, why would he divorce you?"

Lin Feng said in a deep voice: "No!"

Lin Zhou was skeptical: "Really? Or...why don't you think about it carefully?"

Lin Feng said: "I will respond to his every request and provide him with the best quality of life."

Lin Zhou asked, "Material needs are met, but what about spiritual needs? Mr. Lin, I call you Mr. Lin. As the boss of the company, which do you think is more important, work or your wife? In other words, as a workaholic, if your wife is sick, lonely, sad, or wronged, are you the first to feel it?"

Lin Feng was silent for a while, then he said, "What happened between him and me has nothing to do with you."

Lin Zhou was so angry that he laughed: "Okay, okay, okay! It has nothing to do with me! But I still have to say, marrying a wife at home is not to be a vase, not to be a decoration, and certainly not your collection. Su Ling is a person! As a person, he has feelings! He will feel uncomfortable, sad, and lonely and wronged because of waiting! For you, he broke off relations with the Su family. For you, he didn't go out to find a job and was willing to stay at home. But you didn't hold a wedding banquet, didn't introduce him to relatives and friends, and didn't even bring him to parties. What's the difference between this and raising a pet?"

Lin Feng's breathing became heavy due to his barrage of questions, and he was obviously very angry.

Lin Zhou hung up the phone coldly without waiting for his answer.

"Well, that's it." Lin Zhou said to Su Ling in the video.

Su Ling stroked his forehead. "Lin Feng must be very angry."

Lin Zhou shrugged: "He's not my husband, I don't care whether he's angry or not."

Su Ling sighed: "He...is not good at speaking."

Lin Zhou raised his eyebrows: "Not good at speaking - to put it bluntly, it's just stuffy!"

Su Ling: ...
