127 Looking For Someone
Lian Jing was not an impatient person. However, after hearing the waiter’s message, he was frantic with anxiety. He could not calm down.
But he could not look for Shen Yin personally.
This charity gala had been organized by a famous family in Dragon City. The Old Master had just turned 70 this year and had been friends with Grandpa Lian when he was young. As his junior, Lian Jing had to personally greet the Old Master.
Lian Jing was not the only one who was talking to the Old Master in the study. The Old Master listened to everyone’s concerns in silence. After taking his bowl of medicine from a servant and drinking it in one gulp, he smiled at the anxious Lian Jing.
This child had always been calm. Something major must have happened. He had been unable to sit still since he entered the study.
The Old Master waved his hand considerately and let them go about their own business.
By the time Lian Jing came out of the Old Master’s study, an hour had passed since Cheng Huo had taken Shen Yin away.
The moment he came out, he received a call from Zhong Xin. Lian Jing rubbed his furrowed brows and asked coldly, “Have you found the surveillance footage?”
“President Lian.” Zhong Xin’s voice was low and filled with frustration. “Just like at your birthday banquet, the surveillance cameras have been tampered with and we can’t find any traces of Miss Shen. In addition, Miss Ling has already been sent back to her residence, but she keeps shouting that she wants to see you…”
“Useless!” Lian Jing hung up the phone angrily as if he had not heard the part about Ling Xi. His fingers were poised over Shen Yin’s number, but he could not dial it.
Would she answer his call?
D*mn it. Lian Jing walked out of the banquet hall in frustration and drove straight back to the Lian residence.
.The butler was waiting for him at the door, with smile on his face. When he saw him return, he immediately went up to him. “President Lian, your supper is ready. You never eat at banquets. Why don’t you eat something before resting?”
Lian Jing waved his hand anxiously. “I don’t want to eat. Is Shen Yin back?”
“Miss Shen?” The butler shook his head in surprise. “Miss Shen isn’t back yet. I thought she was with you.”
Lian Jing sneered. That woman was very capable now. When she saw that he did not intend to marry her, she immediately found someone else. She was not willing to waste time on him.
He rubbed his brows and sighed tiredly. “Where’s Nian Nian?”
The butler lowered his eyes and replied, “Young Master is already asleep.”
Asleep?
Lian Jing frowned and strode into Shen Nian’s room. His son was sleeping soundly. Lian Jing pulled the boy out of the blanket by his ear. He scolded him angrily, “Your mother is missing. How can you still sleep?”
Shen Nian had been sleeping soundly and he was still dazed when Lian Jing dragged him out of bed. He was so frightened that he trembled and woke up completely.
He blinked and said carefully, “Mom’s phone is switched off. I can’t get through.”
.“And then?” Lian Jing narrowed his eyes. He did not believe that Shen Nian would go to sleep if he did not know anything. He must know where Shen Yin was, but had no intention of telling him the truth.
Were the mother and son in cahoots to make a fool of him?
Lian Jing’s gaze became colder and colder. He gave Shen Nian a warning look that made him shiver uncontrollably.
Shen Nian gulped in fear. His big eyes stared unblinkingly at the furious Lian Jing, as if trying to decide if he should tell him his mother’s whereabouts.
Actually, he had been extremely anxious when he first called Shen Yin and discovered that her phone was switched off. Fortunately, his godmother, Li Zi called and said that his mother was sleeping at her place tonight. Only then did Shen Nian relax and sleep peacefully.
However, his mother did not seem to want his father to know about this. Should he tell or not…
Shen Nian frowned and weighed the pros and cons.
Lian Jing looked at his expression and knew what he was thinking. He let go of his son’s collar and tried his best to keep his tone calm. The stern tone he had used when he barged into the bedroom now became wheedling. “Nian Nian, I won’t do anything to your mother. Tell me where she is and I’ll bring her back.”
“Daddy, Mommy is very safe now…” Shen Nian frowned in distress. “Can’t Daddy be apart from Mommy for even a moment?”
Lian Jing closed his eyes and clenched his fists. He said in a low voice, “Yes, I can’t be apart from her for even a moment. I have to find her immediately.”
Shen Nian blinked and suddenly smiled happily. “Alright, but you have to promise Nian Nian that you can’t be fierce to Mommy, or do anything to hurt Mommy!”
By now, even if Shen Nian had asked for the moon in the sky, Lian Jing would give it to him. He naturally agreed to such a small request.
Only then did Shen Nian tell him the location. Lian Jing frowned as he listened. Only then did he realize that Shen Yin had returned to her original residence.
It was good that she had not gone to a hotel with that man…
Lian Jing heaved a sigh of relief. He finally relaxed. After the tension was released, he only felt the fatigue after running around all night.
He instructed Shen Nian to sleep well and left the main residence without looking back. He drove to Li Zi’s house to catch someone.
The anger he felt when he came back had miraculously dissipated after learning where she was.
