Chapter 363 Xiao Xun Disappears
She should have cherished the opportunity for them to meet again, but she didn't!
"Huh..." Ye Li took a deep breath, trying to control the surge of emotions, but she couldn't control it, and tears flowed from her eyes.
Ye Li burst into tears, her heart ached and she was so sad that she could hardly breathe.
Sorry! Sorry!
Xiao Xun, can you please stay alive? I was wrong. Can you please come back soon?
"Mommy, wuwu..." Xiaomu and Xixi also hugged Ye Li and cried.
The mother and her two children cried together!
The housekeeper, Uncle Da, was waiting by the side. He turned around and secretly wiped away a tear.
Three hours later, the sound of boots on the marble floor came from the end of the corridor.
Ye Li sat on the chair and looked up at the half-open door of the room. Xiao Mu and Xixi were both asleep on the bed beside her. They were frightened today and had cried with her, so they were already tired.
The door was pushed open, and Ye Li stood up suddenly, facing the door.
Xiao Xun's personal attendant Wang Lun walked in. He took two steps forward, stopped in front of Ye Li with a serious expression, and then bowed heavily.
"I'm sorry, Miss Ye." Wang Lun's eyes were red. He said, "The city lord is missing."
"What?" Ye Li stumbled and reached out to hold the armrest of the chair. Her red and swollen eyes widened and she asked in disbelief, "Xiao Xun, he's missing?"
Wang Lun said, "We chased the helicopter that was holding the city lord hostage to a place a thousand meters outside the holy city, over a river. Suddenly, gunshots were heard from inside the helicopter, and then it crashed into the river and exploded."
"We all went to search the river, but we only found the bodies of two criminals, and no trace of the city lord."
"Commander Chongyi and his men are still searching, but the river is vast and the current is turbulent, so the situation is not optimistic."
"Wang Lun, go get ready, I'm going to find him." Ye Li said.
Wang Lun nodded and said, "Okay, but the young master and the others——"
"I will take good care of them." Uncle Da, the butler, said immediately.
"Thank you very much, Uncle Da." Ye Li bowed deeply to Uncle Da, then left quickly with Wang Lun and flew in a helicopter to the place where Xiao Xun crashed.
The rescue lasted for a whole month. In addition to the subordinates led by Air Force Commander Chongyi, the rescue team also included the search and rescue team led by Wu Xuan, patrol soldiers who protected the safety of the holy city, and even the people in the holy city who spontaneously went there to search and rescue, but they still couldn't find any trace of Xiao Xun.
After a month without any results, all kinds of rumors were spreading.
"The City Lord's body may have sunk to the bottom of the river."
"If he were alive, he would have returned long ago."
"Alas... I never thought that the god-like Lord of the City would be like this..."
"What did you say? He won't die, he must not be dead." Ye Li, who was passing by the rest area, rushed over excitedly after hearing this.
Wang Lun and others immediately stepped forward and stopped Ye Li.
"Miss Ye, please calm down. As long as the City Lord's body hasn't been found, he might still be alive." Wang Lun said loudly, "The City Lord is definitely not someone who will die easily."
Wang Lun cast a cold glance at the gossiping citizens of the Holy City. He said, "Thank you all for your hard work. Thank you for helping the City Lord. Everyone has their own things to attend to, so please go back. We will thank you for your help this time by giving you bonuses."
"No, we all came here voluntarily. No compensation is required."
One of the people who had been talking nonsense came forward and apologized, "Madam, we are so sorry. We said something inappropriate. Please believe that we meant no harm."
"I'm sorry, I was too impulsive." Ye Li also bowed apologetically. These people were Xiao Xun's people. He loved his people, so he should treat them with courtesy.
Exhausted Ye Li, supported by Wang Lun, returned to her personal rest tent.
It’s really not sad!
