Chapter 189: 189: He Finally Had A Good Sleep
She scrambled up as if on fire, rushed into the bathroom, and took a cold shower. How could she dare to wake up the man who had climbed into her bed in the middle of the night?
Wake him and say what?
She surely couldn’t just wave at him and ask him what time he had come into her room last night, why he had slept in the same bed with her without saying a word…
That pair of ink-black eyes was too deep, too aggressive. Rong Yan swallowed hard, her gaze evasive, as she found an excuse, “I was in such a hurry this morning, I didn’t have time to wake you. So I left first…”
“You haven’t been sleeping until now, have you?”
He was dressed so casually; it didn’t seem like he had gone to the company.
Li Shengxiao’s eagle-like eyes narrowed, his burning breath sprayed onto the evasive young woman’s cheeks, “I didn’t go to the company today.”
As expected…
Rong Yan knew with him dressed like that he couldn’t have gone to the company. Her beautiful eyes showed surprise, as her red lips parted, “So you can sleep in too- I’
“…” Li Shengxiao’s thin lips tightened, speechless. She didn’t even think about who was to blame!
Rong Yan finally found something that made this man seem like a normal person, feeling slightly more balanced inside, “Right, did you come here to see me for something?”
Li Shengxiao withdrew his hand, just as domineering and proud as ever, “I came to pick you up!”
“Pick me up?” Rong Yan was puzzled, like a monk scratching his head. Pick her up for what?
Li Shengxiao’s pitch-black eyes looked at her, reminding her, “Didn’t you arrange to meet with Duidui? I was on my way.”
“Oh. ”
Rong Yan suddenly realized, and quietly sat down in her own seat.
The car moved smoothly, driving all the way to the hotel entrance.
Just as they got out of the car and started walking towards the hotel, suddenly, a person came running out in a hurry, colliding with Gu Ming.
“I’m sorry, I’m so sorry.” The person who collided with him apologized hastily.
Gu Ming held her, preventing her from falling. He examined her closely, a look of surprise on his face, “Aren’t you the lady in charge of…?”
The person who had been apologizing suddenly raised her head, just as surprised, “Assistant Gu?”
She then looked to the side, and upon seeing the tall and handsome man, her eyes reddened, “Young Master.”
Seeing her expression was off, Gu Ming anxiously pulled her aside to ask,
“What happened?”
“The young master, it’s the young master…” The maid’s eyes were red with emotion, both agitated and anxious, stuttering so much that she couldn’t get the words out.
On hearing ‘young master,’ Rong Yan’s heart skipped a beat, her voice urgent, “What’s wrong with Duidui?”
The maid glanced at her, momentarily stunned, then with a voice tinged with sobs said, “The young master, the young master is missing!”
Duidui is missing!
Rong Yan felt as if struck by lightning, her pretty face quickly draining of color. She grabbed the maid’s arm, pressing her desperately, “How could he go missing? When did he disappear? Where did you last see him?”
Li Shengxiao had never seen her like this before, he held her shoulders steady, his face calm as he tried to soothe her, “Yanyan, stay calm.”
“…Duidui is gone!”
Rong Yan was anything but calm now. After hearing that Li Duidui was missing, her entire being panicked, hardly able to settle down, and to say she was beside herself would be an understatement. Her bewildered large eyes met his steady gaze, barely able to focus..
