Chapter 467: Human-Made Search for Someone



Chapter 467: Human Failure to Find Someone

When Sister Li saw Cheng Xuyuan, a smile appeared on her face.

After all, this was Shen Yumo's husband, who had just returned from working far away.

When facing such young people, one should maintain due courtesy.

Be more polite when greeting people.

But just as she was about to say hello, she didn't notice that Cheng Xuyuan's back was covered in sweat.

For Cheng Xuyuan, he now has to face a huge crisis.

If Sister Li said too much, then...

As thoughts flashed through his mind, Cheng Xuyuan's brain turned rapidly. Without waiting for Sister Li to speak, he quickly said to Sister Li, "Sister, are you going out?"

When Sister Li heard Cheng Xuyuan address her, she felt a little confused.

This young man just called me "big sister".

How come in the blink of an eye, the eldest sister has become the younger sister?

But there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with calling her sister.

And calling her sister seems to make me and him seem closer, and the name of sister also seems to make us seem like we are a family.

"I went out to get something." Sister Li casually raised the item in her hand.

Cheng Xuyuan had no idea what this Sister Li was holding in her hand.

What he wants to know is, sister, when are you leaving?

"Sister, have you seen Shen Yumo?"

"No, maybe she's at work." Sister Li said enthusiastically, "Why don't you give her a call at work, or go to her workplace to look for her."

Hearing this, Cheng Xuyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the cooperation of understanding is not perfect, it is acceptable.

What he feared most now was the possibility of mistakes in their conversation.

"Sister, let's go look for it, you go ahead."

As he spoke, he pulled Shen Yunliang's hand and was about to walk out.

Sister Li looked at Cheng Xuyuan who was walking out quickly. Although she felt a little strange, she couldn't tell what was strange.

In the end, Sister Li walked towards her home without saying anything.

Although Shen Yumo's husband filled people with curiosity, nothing was more important than the affairs of one's own family.

"Do you know him?" Shen Yunliang walked out of the staircase and asked Cheng Xuyuan.

"I don't know him!" Cheng Xuyuan spread his hands and said with a very calm look.

"If you don't know him, how come you call him so familiarly?" Shen Yunliang looked at Cheng Xuyuan with suspicion.

It seemed as if one could see signs of lying on Cheng Xuyuan's face.

The more times like this happened, Cheng Xuyuan knew that he couldn't admit it, otherwise, he would have no way to survive.

So he said solemnly: "Uncle Shen, when I came from the countryside, the elders in my family taught me that when I go out, I must not laugh or talk."

"Also, you must use respectful terms when addressing people."

"You can't greet people stiffly."

Shen Yunliang felt that although Cheng Xuyuan's words made sense, your title was too informal. You called her "sister" as soon as you met her.

But then I felt that I was thinking too much, maybe it was just a habit over there.

"Did Yumo go to the guesthouse to find me? Why don't we go to the guesthouse to take a look?" Shen Yunliang thought about missing this situation and began to seek Cheng Xuyuan's opinion.

Cheng Xuyuan nodded and said, "It's very likely."

"Why don't we go back now?"

Shen Yunliang glanced at where Shen Yumo lived, shook his head and said, "Let's go. I hope we can catch up with Yumo."

"By the way, aren't you here to visit your relatives?"

"Why don't I go back first, and you should visit your relatives."

Two thoughts are now surging in Cheng Xuyuan's mind.

One followed Shen Yunliang back, and the other continued pretending to look for relatives.

In the end, Cheng Xuyuan decided to follow Shen Yunliang back.

If he had met Shen Yumo, he would not have let Shen Yumo face Shen Yunliang alone.

"No one is at my relative's house either. I'll call them later." Cheng Xuyuan said, "It's really inconvenient to find someone without a phone to contact them in advance."

Shen Yunliang was deeply touched by Cheng Xuyuan's sentiment.

For example, this time when they were looking for Shen Yumo, the father and daughter might have missed each other.

"I hope Yumo is waiting for us in the guesthouse." Shen Yunliang said expectantly.

When Shen Yunliang came here, although he came in a jeep, the car was from the East China Sea, so after seeing him off, Shen Yunliang asked the driver to go back.

After all, the car was not his, and he felt embarrassed to occupy it for a long time.

So in the end, the two waited for ten minutes and finally got on the bus, heading towards the guesthouse where they were staying.

After swaying for half an hour, the car finally arrived at the guesthouse.

Shen Yunliang tapped him on the back gently and said, "This trip has wasted more than an hour."

Cheng Xuyuan glanced at his watch and found that it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.

The welcoming party at Donghai was scheduled for six o'clock in the evening.

In other words, Shen Yunliang doesn't have much time left.

As soon as the two of them returned to the guesthouse, a staff member in charge of welcoming them quickly came over and asked, "Director Shen, where have you been?"

"Just now your daughter came over and said she was looking for you, but you were not there."

Hearing that man's words, Cheng Xuyuan's heart trembled.

Shen Yumo has indeed come. What will happen next should be a huge uproar.

Just when Cheng Xuyuan was feeling conflicted, he heard Shen Yunliang ask, "Where is she now?"

"I waited for you for more than 20 minutes, but I couldn't wait any longer. I thought you might have gone to where she lived, so I went home to look for you."

The staff member said: "We originally wanted to send a car to take her away, but she insisted on walking by herself."

"She got on the bus just over ten minutes before you arrived."

Hearing this, Shen Yunliang felt helpless.

This child, why is he so rash in doing things?

However, after listening to what the staff member said, Cheng Xuyuan sensed something different.

This is such a coincidence!

Although many things happen just by coincidence, many things, if they are too coincidental, seem as if someone did it on purpose.

Cheng Xuyuan felt that Shen Yumo did this on purpose.

But the more this happens, the more he has to cooperate.

After looking at Shen Yunliang's regretful expression, Cheng Xuyuan said, "Uncle Shen, how about we find another car to go back?"

When Shen Yunliang passed by Donghai this time, the most important thing in his mind was to see how his daughter was doing. For this, he also arranged a lot of time.

But having arrangements is one thing, and whether things go according to his arrangements is another.

He had already wasted two hours going back and forth.

If he rushes over later, he will be too late!

After all, many of the people who came to greet him from the East China Sea were his old friends, and even some of his old superiors.

In this situation, if he never shows up, how will others view him?

They say that he is in an important position and looks down on others.

He would never allow himself to have such a reputation.

After pondering for a moment, Shen Yunliang hesitated and finally his eyes fell on Cheng Xuyuan.

"Xuyuan, I'll be there in a moment. There's a very important meeting."

"You know, in my current situation, I really have no choice."

"You... aren't you still going to look for that relative of yours? Please help me meet Yu Mo and give these to her." As he spoke, Shen Yunliang handed the bag in his hand to Cheng Xuyuan.

Let myself go see Shen Yumo!

Isn't this just what I want? When Cheng Xuyuan heard Shen Yunliang's request, he felt as if his ears were hallucinating.

Shen Yunliang saw Cheng Xuyuan's hesitation and felt that this matter seemed to be a bit embarrassing for Cheng Xuyuan, so he said, "Xuyuan, if you feel embarrassed, I..."

"Uncle Shen, what's the problem?"

"I'm still planning to go visit my relatives. Even if I don't, I'll still make the trip for you if you tell me so."

Cheng Xuyuan looks so righteous, what a joke! How could I let such a good thing slip away from me?

Shen Yunliang smiled and said, "Thank you for your help. I'll find you a car."

"Uncle Shen, I'd better take the bus to avoid gossip. After all, this is not Yanjing." As Cheng Xuyuan spoke, he took the bag given by Shen Yunliang and walked out.

Before he had taken two steps, he continued, "Uncle Shen, when I see Shen Yumo, should I let her follow me to the guesthouse?"

To say that I don't want to see my daughter is absolutely a lie.

However, Shen Yunliang looked at the sky which was getting darker, and after a moment's hesitation, he said, "Forget it. She has already run a long way back and forth. Let's not let her run away."

"Besides, I won't have much time to spend with her next."

"Instead of making her run back and forth, why not let her rest more?"

"Tell her to come and meet me when I return from Hong Kong."

Shen Yunliang's words made Cheng Xuyuan happy and worried.

The good news is that Shen Yunliang no longer sees Shen Yumo, which means he has escaped disaster temporarily.

But when I come back, will there still be a disaster?

"Okay, I'll tell you." Cheng Xuyuan threw his worries aside and strode towards the bus.

However, Cheng Xuyuan did not take the bus. Instead, after Shen Yunliang returned to the guesthouse, he quietly went back to the opposite side of the guesthouse and found a secluded place to hide.

According to Cheng Xuyuan's estimation, Shen Yumo's two wrong moves were definitely intentional.

I went to her home in the Shanghai Arts and Literature Family Compound, but couldn't find Shen Yumo.

The most likely place to find Shen Yumo is actually here.

After all, Shen Yumo didn't know that Shen Yunliang would stay in the hotel to do business. He might come to the guesthouse again to create an artificial mismatch.

Shen Yunliang, who returned to the Shanghai Arts and Culture Family Compound, was also unable to find the person he was looking for.

If I didn't stop Shen Yumo, the two of them might have met.

Cheng Xuyuan didn't have to wait long, just over twenty minutes, before he saw a young woman walking towards him.

The moment he saw the woman, Cheng Xuyuan didn't care.

Because this woman is not Shen Yumo.

But when he saw who it was, he immediately walked over and asked, "Wang Yian, what are you doing here?"

Looking at Cheng Xuyuan who suddenly appeared, Wang Yian was stunned.

There was even a hint of panic in his expression.
