Volume 1 Chapter 138 What He Knows About Her
When Xu Jingmo saw the breakup message sent by Du Ruo on WeChat, his first reaction was that the person on the other end was not her.
It's not that I'm so confident in their relationship that they can't break up.
But he knew Du Ruo too well.
Given her personality, if she really wanted to break up, she wouldn't tell him in such a perfunctory and casual way.
She would communicate with him face to face, was it because the long-distance relationship was too tiring, or because she had changed her mind, or because he had disappointed her in some way...
No matter what, she would tell him the reason honestly.
This kind of cold text message and a sudden breakup without any explanation is not something she would do.
He requested a video chat, but the other party never responded.
He asked for an explanation, but the other party replied indifferently, "What explanation do you need for breaking up? You don't love me anymore."
The more times he was rejected, the more firmly he believed that the person on the other side was definitely not Du Ruo.
Du Ruo may have encountered trouble or fallen into some kind of dilemma.
Xu Jingmo immediately gave up on continuing to participate in the competition. As there were no flights to go abroad in the near future, he applied for a private jet route, the sooner the better.
I called Du Yao again and asked, "Have you contacted your sister recently?"
Du Yao replied nonchalantly, "No, isn't my sister doing an experiment? She said she'll be very busy these days and asked us not to disturb her."
Xu Jingmo asked: "When did she say that?"
Du Yao checked the chat history and replied, "Just a week ago, what happened?"
A week ago...her WeChat started to become strange...
Xu Jingmo was just guessing based on his intuition. He couldn't confirm it without seeing it with his own eyes, so he casually said, "I'm just asking if you know when she will end it. She's been busy lately and doesn't pay much attention to me."
Du Yao comforted him, saying, "My sister is often like this. There was a time when she couldn't get in touch with me for more than a month. Don't think too much. She will contact you when she is done with her work."
Xu Jingmo: "Okay, I understand."
Whether he is really busy or really wants to break up, he will ask for an answer in person.

Just like a marriage certificate cannot restrain the heart of a person who is determined to cheat, Xu Jingmo also deeply realized that a sense of security is something that no electronic device can provide.
Du Ruo's apartment was empty, the positioning function of her watch was turned off, and the last location shown on his iPad was also the apartment.
She seemed to have evaporated from the world, as if she had decided to completely sever ties with him.
However, the more this happened, the less he believed it.
He didn't believe that their passionate love was just a waste, and he didn't believe that their relationship had reached the point of no return.
He only believed in one possibility - Du Ruo was in trouble.
He stood guard at the door of her laboratory building for a whole day, not wanting to miss anyone he might know.
It was not until night fell that he saw Wilson and two senior brothers and sisters he had met before walking out of the building together.
Wilson was visibly stunned when he saw him.
Xu Jingmo quickly stepped forward and asked anxiously in English: "Where is Du Ruo?"
Two students behind him whispered something in German, but were interrupted by Wilson.
Wilson responded: "Du Ruo has been selected to participate in a confidential experiment and cannot be contacted at this time."
Xu Jingmo asked: "Why didn't you go?"
Wilson explained: "This is the selection by our superiors. She is the most suitable one. This is a good thing. You don't have to worry."
Xu Jingmo asked again: "She broke up with me, did you know?"
Wilson's pupils dilated slightly, but he quickly regained his composure and said, "Then don't bother her anymore, kid. Du Ruo is not someone who will be bound by love. She has more things to do. Find someone who is right for you and fall in love with her."
He was only surprised for a moment, but Xu Jingmo caught it very quickly.
The two senior brothers and sisters behind him also came over to persuade him, saying, "We are very grateful for the gifts you gave us before, but we are sorry, we will still respect Du Ruo's decision, you should not look for her again."
Xu Jingmo's eyes were sharp, and he said without question: "Let her see me, tell me in person that she wants to break up, and give me an explanation."
The three looked at each other, feeling helpless.
Xu Jingmo watched them leave, his deep eyes filled with coldness.
They lied.
He understood the German sentence that was interrupted at the right time.
[Should I tell him the truth?]

Wilson went to work as usual, walked into the garage, opened the door, got in the car, and fastened his seat belt skillfully.
Suddenly, he felt a biting chill on his neck.
"Arrange for me to meet Du Ruo. This is not a request, it is an order."
Xu Jingmo's voice was cold, coming from the back seat. His eyes were like a frozen lake, and the Swiss Army knife in his hand was firmly against the artery in Wilson's neck.
Wilson swallowed nervously and tried to comfort him, "Calm down for a moment."
Xu Jingmo's voice was calm and without any ripples. He just repeated, "I want to see her."
The cold blade scratched his skin without hesitation. Xu Jingmo threatened in German: "I don't want to hurt you, but you shouldn't lie to me. I can hurt you here today, and I can hurt your family tomorrow where you can't see. Think carefully."
The pain in his neck made Wilson realize his madness, and he said hurriedly, "Calm down. Aren't you afraid of being charged?"
Xu Jingmo responded coldly: "Instead of worrying about me, you should worry about whether you can survive today."
Wilson said matter-of-factly: "I have no authority to take you to see her."
Xu Jingmo asked: "Where is she?"
Wilson said firmly: "I'm sorry, I can't tell you. Even if you kill me, I won't tell you."
Perhaps because Wilson took a long time to start the car, his wife looked a little puzzled and came out of the house to check the situation.
Xu Jingmo quickly put away his saber and hid it secretly in the back seat.
Wilson told her nonchalantly: "Nothing, I just received a call."
The wife returned to the house.
Wilson looked in the rearview mirror at the tiny scratches on his neck and said, "I won't call the police. Go away and return home."
Xu Jingmo looked at him and said confidently, "I'm not afraid of you calling the police. I'm just confirming whether Du Ruo is really in trouble. You have to believe that if anything happens to her, I will definitely drag you to be buried with her."
Wilson shook his head, thinking he was a madman, and asked helplessly, "What do you want to do?"
Xu Jingmo was silent for a moment, staring at Wilson deeply, and then said slowly: "You go see her."
