The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Mu's Pampered Wife Chapter 1283 - Alarmed! 7

Chapter 1283 Alarmed! 7

The phone only rang a few times when the call to Liu Lingyu got through.

“Missus? It’s you…” Liu Lingyu’s mellow voice came through.

“Mmm, it’s me. VP Liu, I’ve got some things to ask you.” Xi Xiaye got right to the point.

“Do go ahead, Missus.”

“How are the preparations for Qi Lei’s new company coming along? I remember that his initial plan was to launch after the New Year, right?”

Xi Xiaye was actually not quite clear about Qi Lei’s matters because it was Mu Yuchen who worried about them. They just let Liu Lingyu help, and Xi Xiaye trusted her abilities. Apart from the occasional check-in for a.s.surance, she rarely got involved.

“Missus, it’s still in preparation. The new company’s address has been decided between Master and Master Qi, so don’t worry about that, Missus. Also, some of the human resources and facilities still need to be set up. We’ll be busy with this for now. According to Master Qi and Master’s plans, we’re planning to launch after New Year’s,” Liu Lingyu answered.

Xi Xiaye nodded. “Mmm, thank you for your hard work! Right, have you been in contact with Qi Lei recently?”

“Master Qi? Thanks for bringing it up. Master Qi said he was going to come over this morning to check on the early stages of work, but he’s still not here yet. I’ve called him and a.s.sistant Yang, but no one’s been answering. I got a secretary to check his villa. However, it looks like there’s no one inside, then I recalled that he said he was going to make a trip to City B. He’s probably not back yet, or is still on the plane.”

When she heard Liu Lingyu say this, Xi Xiaye was stunned for a moment. She could not help but feel a hint of uneasiness.

She knew Qi Lei. He would usually be punctual for important things. If there were any changes, he would have typically informed her beforehand, but right now, it was clear that something was off.

If it was something he had planned to do this morning, then logically, he should have already returned to City Z last night. If there were changes in plans and he did not return, he should also have given Liu Lingyu or her a call!

When she thought about this, Xi Xiaye felt even more worried now and her brows furrowed into a knot.

Liu Lingyu could clearly feel the uneasiness from Xi Xiaye from the other end, so he immediately asked, “Missus, is something wrong?”

Xi Xiaye felt more and more worried now. Her breath felt short, so she inhaled and her clear eyes flashed firmly as she quickly said, “VP Liu, I think something’s not right. I’ve also been calling their phones, but no one’s answering. Qi Lei made an appointment to meet me today too. He wouldn’t cancel for no reason. Check for flights to City Z from City B right away, and confirm if Qi Lei’s back or if he’s still on the flight! Also, contact City B’s CEO Li. See what Qi Lei’s situation is. If he’s still not there, I remember Qi Lei mentioning that he was going to discuss business with CEO Li.”

Xi Xiaye’s sudden seriousness naturally alarmed Liu Lingyu. He quickly asked, “Missus, are you worried that something’s happened to Master Qi?”

“I can’t answer you about that right now. I’m worried. Confirm Qi Lei’s tracks first. Don’t delay this and do it right away. Call me once you find out anything!”

“Yes, Missus, don’t worry. I’ll do it right away!”

Liu Lingyu dared not delay this. When she hung up, he got busy right away and called City B’s CEO Li first. Then, he found out that after Qi Lei met him yesterday afternoon, he mentioned that he would return to City Z the night itself!

Upon hearing that, Liu Lingyu’s heart tightened and he started to feel uneasy!

Without further ado, he called the airline company and quickly checked Qi Lei’s flight details. He found out that Qi Lei did not board the plane last night or this morning. However, Qi Lei did book a ticket for a flight back to City Z last night!

Upon finding out, Liu Lingyu’s eyes widened and he felt even more worried now.

Did something happen?

He quickly called the people in charge of the project in City B and found out that Qi Lei had left City B for City Z last night!

…

Meanwhile, on the other end, in Xi Xiaye’s office in Fuhua Real Estate.

After Xi Xiaye finished her call with Liu Lingyu, she kept pacing back and forth nervously. She found it hard to breathe for some reason as she paced around uneasily.

When Lan Zilang entered through the door, he saw her anxious demeanor. He carefully closed the door and asked, “What’s wrong? You look worried. Did something happen?”

Xi Xiaye’s brows were furrowed into a knot. When she heard Lan Zilang’s voice, she turned to the voice and noticed him before she sucked in a deep breath. “Uncle Lan, it’s you.”

Nodding, Lan Zilang walked over in huge strides and set the doc.u.ments down onto her desk as he asked in concern, “What’s wrong? You don’t look too good. Are you not well? If you’re ill, then go home earlier. You’ve been working hard these past few days and should be exhausted.”

Xi Xiaye shook her head while her voice was colored with a hint of concern. “I’m okay. It’s just that I’m feeling uneasy, Uncle Lan, like…”

Before Xi Xiaye could finish, her phone buzzed on the table. Xi Xiaye could not care less and quickly walked up in two steps to grab it to quickly answer, “So? VP Liu?”

“Missus, it really is like you said. Something’s not right! I just talked to CEO Li and the project management people in City B. They all say that Master Qi flew back to City Z on the flight last night, but I checked with the airline company. It shows that he did buy a flight ticket but didn’t board the flight! There’s no one at Master Qi’s Grand Lake Villa either. I’ve called everyone close to Master Qi, and they don’t know where he is. Right now, I can’t get through to Master Qi and a.s.sistant Yang’s phones either. Do you think something’s happened to them?”

When Liu Lingyu said that, Xi Xiaye’s beautiful little face froze and she was not herself.

Xi Xiaye gasped to herself and suppressed the uneasiness in her heart as she asked softly, “Are you saying that we can’t track Qi Lei down right now?”
