C17 Missing
Missing.
Zhou Xingchen smiled. His handsome face, which looked like an ice sculpture, immediately softened. He said to Xia Xiner, "Xin'er, you have worked hard. You should go back first."
A trace of anger flashed across Xia Xiner's eyes. In an instant, she had a warm and sweet look and said, "Okay, you too."
"I know." Zhou Xingchen knew that she wanted him to go to the villa in the suburbs. He wanted to go with Xin'er as soon as possible. But Liang Jia...
He glanced at Liang Jia. She was forcing herself to smile and say goodbye to Xia Xiner. She was very polite. But her smile was very awkward. But looking at her awkward smile, Zhou Xingchen felt that the current Liang Jia was more pleasing to the eye than any other time.
Liang Jia turned her head and saw Zhou Xingchen looking at her without blinking. His probing gaze made her feel uncomfortable. She cleared her throat and turned her body, leaving only Zhou Xingchen's silky back.
"You're not smiling anymore?" Zhou Xingchen said sarcastically.
"I'm tired." Liang Jia's crisp voice was a little hoarse at the moment.
Zhou Xingchen felt pity for her. He moved his lips and asked, "Do you want to sleep?"
"Yes."
Zhou Xingchen smiled and said, "But it's only afternoon."
"It's none of your business."
Zhou Xingchen was stunned on the spot. His handsome eyes widened slightly and his pupils contracted. This was the first time she had ever talked back to him.
However, he found that he wasn't unhappy at all. Instead, he enjoyed it very much.
He wanted to whistle, but only when he placed the tip of his tongue between his teeth did he realize that Liang Jia had already fallen asleep. Thus, he moved a reclining chair with light movements. He leaned over and stretched out his long legs, adjusting the phone to a quiet tone. In his heart, he did not want to bicker with her. He laid down beside Liang Jia with a clear conscience. His fatigue gradually became stronger.
The next day, the weather was good. Sunlight slanted in.
Zhou Xingchen opened his eyes and suddenly found Liang Jia facing him. She was still sleeping soundly. Her long and thick eyelashes were like butterfly wings. They rested quietly on her fair and creamy face. Her lips had regained a trace of blood, and there was a bit of cherry powder in the paleness.
Zhou Xingchen slowly approached. He stared at Liang Jia's lips, so lovely and cute. He was so fascinated.
Liang Jia moaned as she breathed. She unconsciously turned over. Zhou Xingchen was shocked. Although there was no one else around, he pretended to cough dryly.
He stood up, straightened his clothes, and habitually took out his phone. On the screen, there were a few missed calls. Many of them were from the company. One of them was Xia Xiner.
Zhou Xingchen called back but no one answered. He called again, but it was still the same.
Could it be that something happened to Xin'er? Thinking of this, Zhou Xingchen could not stay any longer. He hurriedly used his fingers to fiddle with his hair. He lifted his foot and walked out of the ward. Before he left, he took a deep look at Liang Jia, who was still in a dream.
He drove all the way to the villa in the suburbs. When he entered the door, he found Xia Xiner's delicate high heels neatly arranged in front of the entrance. His heart immediately felt much more at ease.
He walked upstairs in quick steps and knocked on the bedroom prepared for Xia Xiner.
He saw Xia Xiner curled up into a ball wrapped in the blanket on the bed. Her eyes were tightly shut and her body trembled uncontrollably.
Zhou Xingchen's slender hand touched her forehead.
It was so hot! Zhou Xingchen's expression darkened.
"Xingchen, Xingchen," Xia Xiner muttered.
"I'm here." Zhou Xingchen was very gentle. He held Xia Xiner's hand tightly and felt the temperature of his palm.
"Don't leave me. Don't." She closed her eyes and repeated these words.
Zhou Xingchen took out his phone and dialed a number. "Doctor Wei, come to my villa in the suburbs immediately. The sooner the better."
"But..."
Before Doctor Wei could finish, Zhou Xingchen hung up. He soaked the towel and carefully placed it on Xia Xiner's hot forehead.
He knelt in front of Xia Xiner's bed. His movements were gentle and gentle, as if he was taking care of a treasure, afraid that she would be damaged a little. Her face was dark red like the glow of the morning sun, and her lips were beautiful and moist. When they were slightly opened and closed, their voices were as soft as a mosquito's cry. He was able to recognize the shape of her mouth. It was calling a name over and over again, "Xingchen."
Thirty minutes later, Doctor Wei rushed over with sweat all over his head while carrying the medicine box.
As everyone knew, Young Master Zhou was temperamental and unpredictable. He could not afford to offend him at all. Since he had called him, Then of course he came without stopping.
Doctor Wei had tested Xia Xiner's body temperature and prescribed medicine. After taking a drip, he was still in a trance and could not believe it. The cold and indifferent Zhou Xingchen actually cared so much about a woman. It seemed that Xia Xiner, the popular gossip in the media recently, deserved her reputation. Indeed, Young Master Zhou was deeply in love with her.
"Take this medicine twice a day. Sooner or later, take it every fifteen minutes before the meal. This way, her body can be cured."
"Okay," Wang Yao said. Zhou Xingchen took the medicine and sent the doctor away. He stood in front of Xia Xiner's bed. At this time, she had woken up a long time ago. Her eyes were half happy and half worried. Her lips, which were like flower petals, moved slightly. "You're here..." As she spoke, tears flowed down her cheeks to the back of her ears. "Just now, I was in so much pain. I really wanted you to be by my side... but, I didn't want to disturb you too much."
Zhou Xingchen gently hugged her and softly coaxed, "I'm by your side."
"Okay." Xia Xiner gently leaned on his chest. Through his clothes, one could vaguely hear his heartbeat. It was steady and strong.
Xia Xiner felt incomparably satisfied. The one closest to Zhou Xingchen's heart was still her. For so many years, this matter had never changed.
Zhou Xingchen's phone suddenly vibrated...
Zhou Xingchen picked it up. Before he could say a word, he accepted his father's scolding.
He ignored all the unnecessary scolding and kept repeating what was going on in his mind. There were only a few words in his mind, "Liang Jia is missing."
Xia Xiner felt Zhou Xingchen's grip on her slowly tighten. She cried out in pain and Zhou Xingchen let her go. She asked softly, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
"Liang Jia is gone." Zhou Xingchen left the room in a hurry.
This sentence was like a boulder smashing on Xia Xiner's chest, smashing her until she could not breathe. Zhou Xingchen had always been calm and collected. He moved back and forth calmly. He had never been so flustered and anxious. It was Liang Jia again, Liang Jia. ...
Zhou Xingchen was especially irritated. He rushed to the hospital with a few red lights.
Mr. Zhou and Mother Zhou stood in the ward. He went in and asked, "What's going on?"
"What's going on?" Zhou Qishu asked, "Yesterday I asked you to take good care of Jiajia. " She disappeared today. You still have the face to ask? "
Zhou Xingchen's face was as cold as ice. The first possibility he thought of was that Liang Jia had left by herself. Then he denied it. He had Li Yin's information in his hands. How could she just leave? Then she had been kidnapped. The other party knew that she was the Young Madam of Zhou family... He did not dare to think about it anymore. He did not dare to think about how the kidnapper would treat Liang Jia. Zhou Xingchen felt his hands and feet turn cold. He calmed himself down. He immediately took out his phone and asked for his friend's help. No matter what, he had to find Liang Jia.
He weakly sat on the bed but found a drawing under the pillow. The theme of the picture was the furnishing of the room. In the lower left corner, there was a small picture: A triangle with a rhombus on the outside and a rectangle on the outermost layer. It was a simple Rose LOGO.
