In less than ten seconds, Xuan Mingyu had completely grasped Bai Xiaoruo's exact location.
She wasn't home; she was out.
However, she seems to be sitting on some kind of transportation, and the little red dot is moving forward rapidly. Even if you can roughly determine her location at the beginning, you can't figure out what she is doing or who she is with.
Tsk!
Next time, we should install a voice-activated eavesdropping device on her phone.
Listen to what she's been doing behind my back, see if she's been saying anything bad about him...
etc!
What am I actually doing?
Hsien Ming-yu stopped what he was doing.
The thick stack of folders on the table hadn't been touched yet. Even though he had a lot of work to do, he had nothing better to do than call Bai Xiaoruo and check her location.
This is insane!
I slammed the laptop shut, feeling inexplicably irritated.
It's ridiculous. Where she goes and where she is now, why should he care so much?
I doubt she's capable of cheating on me. If she really did have an affair, wouldn't that be even better? He could then find a perfect reason to ask his grandparents for a divorce.
But why is it that the thought of her actually being with someone else makes me feel uncomfortable instead of happy?
It must be because I've been under too much pressure lately; I've started overthinking.
Xuan Mingyu took out his phone, scrolled down to the last private album that required fingerprint unlocking, opened it, and all the photos of Su Yulu and him were displayed.
He gently stroked the smiling face in the photo with his fingertips. He looked at each one countless times every day, never getting tired of it.
Even though the truth was out and the facts were right in front of him, Ke Xianmingyu still refused to believe that his Luo'er had really married someone else and was carrying another man's child...
They were so in love, why did things turn out this way?
Without even a proper breakup, she mysteriously disappeared from my life the next morning when I woke up.
He searched for her for six long years, only to be met with this outcome...
A thought suddenly flashed through his mind. Xuan Mingyu pulled out his contacts, found Gu Yao's number, and dialed it—
Meanwhile, Gu Yao was still in the hospital, where a nurse was bandaging his wounds, while Annie sat on a chair next to him, busy playing games.
When Xuan Mingyu called, Gu Yao reacted as if he had a hot potato, gesturing for Annie to remain silent before cautiously pressing the call button.
Before Gu Yao could speak, Xian Mingyu was already eager to say something, "Gu Yao, could you help me investigate Su again in the next few days..."
The words were on the tip of his tongue, but he couldn't bring himself to say them.
Should we continue investigating? We've already checked twice, and the result is so obvious.
She's already married. If we keep investigating, won't we just be adding to her distress and continuing to stab ourselves in the heart?
Those videos, those photos, every scene told him that she was doing well, that her family was happy, and that if he kept pestering her, wouldn't he just look like a despicable third party?
[What are you checking? Hello? Is the signal bad? I didn't hear you clearly.]
"Nothing much. Have you found a etiquette teacher for Bai Xiaoruo? Send me the information so I can take a look."
[I've already found it. I'm still out now, I'll send it to you when I get back.] So Mingyu called from all this way just for his little wife. Gu Yao breathed a small sigh of relief, glad that he had made arrangements in advance.
As expected, Mingyu has begun to take Bai Xiaoruo seriously.
"Um......"
It seems there's nothing else going on.
[Is there anything else you need to tell me?] There was an awkward silence on the phone, something that had never happened before in all the years they had talked on the phone. Gu Yao couldn't help but ask again weakly.
"Keep an eye on Bai Xiaoruo for me. I'll try to finish my work here as early as possible and go back, especially what she does every day. Not only tell me verbally, but don't forget to attach photos."
Huh? I need to attach a photo too?
Do these young couple miss each other that much after just one day apart?
Gu Yao was very frustrated. He already had a lot of work to do, and if he followed Bai Xiaoruo around all day, wouldn't he become her personal photographer?
[Well... I need details about her daily routine, including how she wakes up and goes to bed...]
"Give it a try."
[No, no. Actually, I think it would be more convenient for you to just install a 360° camera in your room. You could watch her however you want.]
"Who wants to look at her! I have plenty of women here who are prettier and have better figures than her, what's so great about her!" Just thinking about Bai Xiaoruo's aggrieved little face every day made Xuan Mingyu very unhappy. It was as if she was always being bullied by him. Was he that scary to her?
Gu Yao almost burst out laughing: [That's true, but no matter how beautiful other women are, they can't compare to the comfort of holding your own little wife, right?]
"You!" As for the feel, it was just so-so. I've hugged all kinds of women before.
I remember the first time I held her, she was so tiny, her waist was so flexible it seemed boneless, her hands were soft and smooth to the touch, her hair was soft too, and she had a faint, sweet scent—I don't know what perfume she was wearing, but it smelled lovely, and then…
Wait a minute! What am I thinking?!
Damn it! Gu Yao has completely led us astray!
"Have you been hanging out with Annie too much lately? You've become just as gossipy as her. Alright, I'm not going to waste any more time with you. I'm hanging up now. Don't forget what I told you."
