Pei Siyu clearly sensed something was wrong.
He had just been looking at her with a disappointed expression.
Mingyao felt a pang of disappointment but still agreed, "Okay."
"What about Ni An?"
"What are President Pei's plans to do?"
"It's still under investigation." He clearly didn't want to continue the conversation, and Mingyao wisely refrained from asking any further questions.
Mingyao hitched a ride with Pei Siyu to work.
After getting out of the car at the company entrance, Pei Siyu called out to her, "There's an important meeting at headquarters today. Go home after get off work."
"Remember, never act alone."
He specifically instructed them.
Mingyao was a little puzzled. She wasn't a child, so why did she need to be told this?
After get off work, Mingyao didn't go straight home, but instead went to a shop near the art high school.
The appointed time with Su Yao was fast approaching, and she carefully selected watercolor paints and drawing paper.
As she hailed a taxi on the roadside, her phone vibrated twice; it was a text message from Zhong Ruyi.
Zhong Ruyi: [Xiao Su, I'm not feeling well, could you come to the sanatorium?]
Mingyao had a bad feeling.
Zhong Ruyi rarely texted her, but just in case, Mingyao still dialed Zhong Ruyi's number.
"The number you dialed is temporarily unavailable, please try again later..."
Mingyao called twice more, but the result was the same.
Perhaps something really happened to Zhong Ruyi.
After getting into the taxi, Mingyao hesitated for a moment before giving the address of the sanatorium.
There are still about two weeks until the accident at the high-tech company, so it shouldn't happen earlier than expected.
Mingyao called Wang Lina to explain the situation.
Wang Lina tried calling Zhong Ruyi, but no one answered.
"Xiao Su, you go to the sanatorium first, I'll have my brother go there first."
"I'm not in Haidu right now; I'll be back a little later."
"Remember, be very careful!"
Mingyao nodded, her mind in turmoil.
Upon arriving at the sanatorium, Mingyao rushed into Zhong Ruyi's room as quickly as possible.
Zhong Ruyi's daily necessities were in the room, but she was not there.
A staff member approached, looking at Mingyao with a puzzled expression: "Miss Su, didn't Mrs. Zhong tell you she went to the hospital?"
"Hospital?" The text message clearly stated that she should come to the sanatorium.
The staff explained, "Mrs. Zhong had a heated argument with her husband on the phone, which affected her pregnancy. She was taken away by ambulance before Ms. Su arrived."
Mingyao frowned: "How long have you been walking?"
Five minutes.
If you've only walked for five minutes, you shouldn't have missed it.
The nearest hospital to the sanatorium is on the way Mingyao came; it's only a five-minute drive away.
not good!
Mingyao called Wang Zhouheng, and all she heard on the other end was the sound of howling wind.
Mingyao sent him a WeChat message to tell him the situation.
Wang Zhouheng: "I know someone at that hospital. I'll go ask about the situation."
Soon after, Wang Zhouheng sent a message: "Madam Zhong is not at that hospital!"
Mingyao's heart pounded, and the unease in her heart was like an inflating balloon, almost swallowing her reason.
Is it really happening ahead of schedule?
After leaving the sanatorium, Mingyao looked at the high-tech company not far away.
It was getting late, and there were no employees left at the entrance of Gaoxing Technology Company.
Ring ring—
The sudden ringing of her cell phone pulled Mingyao back to reality.
Wang Zhouheng said anxiously, "Su Xueya, I've already called the police. Wait for me!"
Mingyao hummed in agreement, stood at the entrance of the sanatorium, and gazed at the high-tech company.
As time went on, Mingyao's unease grew stronger.
The phone rang again. Mingyao didn't notice the call and answered it instinctively.
"Dr. Wang, you're here..."
The person on the other end of the phone did not answer.
Mingyao was stunned for a moment, then a sinister laugh came.
"Su Xueya, long time no see, are you surprised?"
"Guo Xiaorong, it's you!"
Mingyao tried to calm herself down and asked in a low voice, "Why did you call?"
Guo Xiaorong sighed and said casually, "It's nothing, I just wanted to meet you."
"See me?" Mingyao scoffed coldly. "Do we need to see each other?"
Guo Xiaorong burst into laughter without warning.
Mingyao found Guo Xiaorong's voice somewhat eerie. Just as she was about to hang up, Guo Xiaorong suddenly said, "I shouldn't call you Su Xueya, I should call you Mingyao, right?"
Mingyao shuddered, her pupils contracting.
She clenched her fists and asked in a low voice, "Guo Xiaorong, what are you saying?"
Guo Xiaorong said with great interest, "I just discovered an interesting truth. Mingyao, aren't you curious about how I found out?"
"I don't know what you're talking about."
"Tsk, if Pei Siyu knew your true identity, would you still be so indifferent?"
Mingyao could no longer contain herself: "Guo Xiaorong, what exactly are you trying to do?"
She pretended to be calm, but inside she was panicking.
Once Pei Siyu finds out her true identity, everything she has painstakingly built will be ruined!
"Now we've reached the crossroads."
Mingyao gripped her phone tightly, watching the cars coming and going at the intersection, and sneered: "Guo Xiaorong, you're really vicious."
Guo Xiaorong was not angry at all; instead, she laughed even more triumphantly.
"Mingyao, Mingyao, I'm counting down one minute."
"One, two..."
As Mingyao stood in the middle of the intersection, the piercing sound of the horn almost pierced her eardrums.
"Then what?"
"Then get in the car."
As soon as he finished speaking, a black van without license plates stopped.
