Chapter 62: The Evil of the Zhao Family (VIII)
The first thing that came to her mind was that Yun Yi might have been captured by the Zhao family.
Yun Yi seldom went out after becoming a clerk, and the only few times he went out were when she took him with her, so it was unlikely that Yun Yi went out by himself.
But with the signboard and the defense system in the store, the Zhao family couldn't get in at all.
Unless the Zhao family hired someone who was not from the Zhao family to trick Yun Yi out of the store.
The Zhao family's target is her, so they probably won't do anything to Yun Yi...
Thinking of this, Xu Qiuqian left the store and headed for Xianwu Pavilion.
Find Chen Wu in Xianwu Pavilion.
"Manager Xu, is there anything I can help you with?" Chen Wu was quite happy to see Xu Qiuqian, as it meant he would have business again.
"Yes, Yun Yi is missing."
"Missing? What happened?"
"I don't know either. I guess it was done by the Zhao family. Please help me look for it and ask if anyone has seen Yun Yi."
Chen Wu said seriously: "Manager Xu, rest assured, I will do my best to help you find it!"
Xu Qiuqian took out the spirit stone, but Chen Wu confiscated it.
"It won't be too late for Manager Xu to give it to me once you find the person."
"Oh well."
Afterwards, Xu Qiuqian was not idle either. She turned around and went to Chen's house. After explaining the situation to Chen Zhuozheng, Chen Zhuozheng said that he would send someone to help search.
"Youling City is not small. If the Zhao family intends to hide, it will be difficult to find them." Chen Zhuozheng said worriedly.
Xu Qiuqian lowered her eyes.
"It doesn't matter. If I can't find him, I will go to the Zhao family to ask for him myself."
Chen Zhuozheng nodded.
"Don't worry. It's not necessarily the Zhao family who did it. We have been keeping an eye on the Zhao family. If it was really them, someone would have reported it. Oh, and if you are really worried, you can go find Xiao Pingyue. He can contact Zhao Baili."
"Okay, I understand. Thank you."
Chen Zhuozheng shook his head.
"I'll send someone to tell the other families to help look for it as well."
"Then I'll trouble you."
Just as he was about to leave, a servant came in.
"Chief, the young master is back. It seems he went to fight again. There are marks on his neck from being strangled."
"This brat!"
Chen Zhuo was so angry after hearing this. He seemed to be getting better with great difficulty, but his true colors were revealed not long after?
"Then I won't bother Patriarch Chen anymore."
Xu Qiuqian responded and went to the Xiao family.
Xiao Pingyue was a little surprised to see Xu Qiuqian.
Xu Qiuqian got straight to the point: "Mr. Xiao Qi, can you help me contact Zhao Baili? My clerk is missing, and I suspect it was done by the Zhao family."
Xiao Pingyue didn't hesitate at all when he heard this.
Take out the Shuiyunmu from the storage bag and input spiritual power.
After a while, Zhao Baili's voice came from the Shuiyunmu.
"Master Xiao Qi, what's the matter?"
"Manager Xu's clerk is missing."
There was a pause.
"Do you think it was the Zhao family who did it? Wait a minute, I'll go ask."
There was no sound from Zhao Baili.
A quarter of an hour later.
"Manager Xu's clerk is not from the Zhao family."
"How can you be sure?"
"After I went back, I told my father that several major families knew about what the Zhao family did. My father immediately summoned all the people from the main family and they are still discussing it. Although the Zhao family has a grudge against Manager Xu, it has always been Zhao Wen who has been doing this. No one else was involved. I just asked Zhao Wen's subordinates and confirmed that this was not the case."
Xiao Pingyue looked at Xu Qiuqian.
Xu Qiuqian said coldly: "Zhao Baili, you'd better tell the truth, otherwise even if the other families let you go, I won't let you go."
"Manager Xu, rest assured, I am telling the truth. I will ask other members of the Zhao family later. If there is any, I will inform you as soon as possible."
It was not the Zhao family who captured Yun Yi.
Where would Yun Yi be? Xu Qiuqian frowned.
Xiao Pingyue pondered and said, "Could he have been taken away by someone he knew?"
Someone you know?
Who does Yun Yi know? Xu Qiuqian murmured, "Yun Yi knows some people from several major families, but they have only met each other. The only one he is familiar with is Chen Wei."
Chen Wei...
Xiao Pingyue seemed to be thinking about something.
Then Xu Qiuqian continued, "Although the two of them don't like each other, it's just a verbal dispute at most. Even if Xiao Wei doesn't like Xiao Yi, she won't do such a thing."
"not necessarily."
"Do you think Chen Wei was responsible for Yun Yi's disappearance? Why did he do this?"
Xiao Pingyue shook his head. "Given Chen Wei's personality, he certainly wouldn't kill Yun Yi just because he didn't like him. But Chen Wei has been spoiled since he was a child, and he always does things based on his likes and dislikes, regardless of the consequences. Even if he doesn't kill Yun Yi, it's entirely possible that he taught Yun Yi a small lesson. Did he go to the store today?"
"No."
"Has he ever left the Chen family?"
Xu Qiuqian really didn’t know this.
But she suddenly remembered what the Chen family said to Chen Zhuozheng when she left the Chen family just now.
Maybe it was really Chen Wei who did it.
Xu Qiuqian turned around and rushed to Chen's house without even having time to say a word to Xiao Pingyue. Of course, Xiao Pingyue wouldn't care.
Right now.
Chen family.
"What did you say?!" Chen Zhuozheng pointed at the marks on Chen Wei's neck with a look of disbelief, "Did Yun Yi cause this injury?"
Chen Wei nodded.
Chen Zhuo was furious. "Yun Yi is missing, and you dare to bite Yun Yi!"
"I didn't bite! Everything I said is true!"
Seeing his son's expression, which didn't look like the expression he usually had when he was lying, and the fact that Chen Wei had asked him to help teach Yun Yi a lesson last time, an incredible thought arose in his heart.
"Then tell me, why did he pinch you?"
So Chen Wei told Chen Zhuozheng his plan and everything he had just done.
"...I, I don't know why he is so useless. He couldn't even break a low-level second-grade heart-refining formation, and he almost strangled me to death!" Chen Wei couldn't help but complain, "Dad, you must help me get revenge. He actually dared to strangle me..."
With a "pop" sound.
His palm was filled with wind and spiritual power, and he slapped with all his strength.
Chen Wei was caught off guard and was knocked to the ground.
He covered his face and looked at Chen Zhuozheng in shock: "You hit me?!"
"I'm going to beat you, you useless trash!" Chen Zhuozheng said in a deep voice, then walked over and punched and kicked Chen Wei.
Chen Wei covered his head and kept dodging.
"Are you crazy?!"
Chen Zhuozheng turned a deaf ear.
The burning and pain on his cheeks burned away the little sanity Chen Wei had left.
"Ahhhh! I'll fight you!"
He fought back and struggled with Chen Zhuo. The only sound in the room was the sound of fists hitting flesh.
While beating, they cursed loudly.
"Useless piece of shit, if I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have given birth to you!"
"You are the loser. You can't even protect your own Taoist partner!"
"At the age of seventeen, he is at the ninth level of Qi Refining. If not a waste, what is he?!"
"You are worse than trash if you sacrifice your Taoist partner for the sake of profit!"
"you……"
At this time, a servant's voice sounded outside: "Patriarch, Master, Manager Xu is here."
