Zuo Hancheng’s attitude was too obvious. Director Bai looked at his back as he left, then turned to look at Bai Weiwei, who had been silent all this while.
“What happened?”
Bai Weiwei did not answer. She only watched as Zuo Hancheng walked out of the door. She hid the disappointment and sadness in her eyes.
That phone call just now must have something to do with Gu Anhao
Zuo Hancheng answered the call as he walked out of the private room.””What is it?”
“Mr. Zuo, Mrs. Zuo is missing.”The room service staff sounded a little anxious.” Mrs. Zuo was supposed to be in the room, but when we went in to check on her condition, we realized that she was gone. We thought that she was just out for a walk because she had a headache, but we couldn’t find her anywhere. It’s been almost ten minutes, so we were worried, so we had no choice but to ask the receptionist for your number to ask you about the situation ”
” What?” Zuo Hancheng’s eyes darkened.” She’s always sleeping in her room. How could she suddenly disappear?””
As he spoke, he was already walking up the nearest escalator as fast as he could.
“We’re not sure either. Mrs. Zuo woke up once before and we saw her take a shower. She seemed to be fine, but she said that the alcohol was too strong and she felt a little uncomfortable, so we heated up some milk for her. After giving her the milk, we left. When we returned, Mrs. Zuo was gone! Mr. Zuo, didn’t Mrs. Zuo look for you? She asked Mr. Zuo where you went before ”
Before the room service staff could finish speaking, Zuo Hancheng had already walked up to the second floor. The room service staff turned around and was shocked to see Zuo Hancheng. He quickly hung up the phone and walked to him with fear in his eyes.”Mister Zuo ”
Zuo Hancheng turned around and walked back to his room. When he opened the door, he saw that the bed that Anhao had slept on was empty. Her bag, clothes, and shoes were all gone. However, there were some inconspicuous water stains on the carpet in front of the bathroom door. It was obvious that Anhao had woken up halfway and had taken a shower. The room service staff did not lie to him.
He picked up his phone and glanced at it. There was no call from Anhao, so he dialed her number. At the same time, he turned around and walked out. As he walked, he asked,”Was there anything strange before she left?”
” No, Mrs. Zuo said that her stomach wasn’t feeling well and she had a headache. After we gave her the milk, she asked us to leave first, saying that she wanted to rest. Other than asking Mr. Zuo where you went and whether there was anyone special who came tonight, Mrs. Zuo didn’t seem to have anything unusual ”
Zuo Hancheng suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Before Anhao fell asleep, she had no idea that the two elders of the Bai family would be here. Why would she suddenly ask this?
“She has been in the room since she woke up?”
The room service thought for a moment and said,”I think she stopped in the corridor for a while, but it shouldn’t have been long. It was when we heated the milk for her.”
Anhao’s call went unanswered, but it was not because her phone was switched off or that she could not be connected. Zuo Hancheng’s expression was cold as he continued to call her while he turned around and went downstairs to the surveillance room of the entertainment city.
In the surveillance video, Anhao staggered out of the room, but she was stopped by the two men from the Construction Bureau at the end of the corridor. The video only showed Anhao being stopped by the two men for about ten minutes. Suddenly, Anhao pulled one of the men to the wall and said a few more words before the two men left.
After she left, Anhao stood by the wall for a while before she was noticed by the room service. They helped her back to her room.
Zuo Hancheng was still on the phone with Anhao after he saw what happened after Anhao woke up.
However, if this girl really wanted to avoid him, she would probably turn off her phone. However, her phone was still connected, but she did not pick up.
This worried Zuo Hancheng.
After all, the after-effects of the wine were too strong. If she did not continue to rest and ran out, she was afraid that she would fall asleep by the roadside.
On the first floor, Bai Weiwei was in a bad mood. She left the private room to avoid her parents ‘questioning. After all, no one was willing to admit that it was one-sided, let alone in front of her parents. Bai Weiwei’s pride did not allow her to admit that she had failed, and she did not want to admit that she was unwilling to give up on Zuo Hancheng even though she knew that he was married.
She ran into Director Xue, who was talking and laughing with others outside the passageway. Those people had always been her best friends in the Construction Bureau. Seeing that Bai Weiwei did not look too good, they walked over to talk to her.
Zuo Hancheng happened to pass by them when he went downstairs. Bai Weiwei turned around and saw that Zuo Hancheng was in a hurry. It seemed that something had happened. She turned around and was about to ask him, but Zuo Hancheng suddenly stopped and turned to look at Director Xue and the other colleague from the Construction Bureau.
Sensing the coldness in Zuo Hancheng’s eyes, Bai was slightly stunned.””Han City? What’s wrong?”
Department Director Xue instinctively took a step to the side when he saw Zuo Hancheng’s gaze. Because Zuo Hancheng’s gaze was too cold and threatening, he was so guilty that he did not dare to meet his frosty gaze. He turned his head and gave a look to his colleagues beside him, hinting that they should not say anything.
However, Zuo Hancheng’s gaze was too cold and frightening. Bai asked in confusion,””Han Cheng, you said you had something urgent to attend to. Is it true? You ”
“What did you say to her?” Zuo Hancheng did not seem to notice Bai Weiwei. He only stared at Department Director Xue coldly and solemnly.
Department Director Xue was stunned and turned to look at Zuo Hancheng. When he saw the murderous look in Zuo Hancheng’s eyes, his heart skipped a beat.”What does President Zuo mean by this What did he say to her? I don’t think I understand.”
Zuo Hancheng’s eyes were cold.”Do you think the surveillance cameras in every corner of the entertainment city are just for show?”
Department Director Xue did not expect Zuo Hancheng to actually go and pull up the surveillance footage. His expression froze for a moment, but he did not say anything. He only turned his head away to avoid Zuo Hancheng’s gaze.
“What surveillance?” “Han City?” Bai Weiwei was confused.”
Now was not the time to waste time with them. Wasting a second would bring infinite possibilities. Zuo Hancheng did not say anything else and turned to leave.
Bai Weiwei felt that there must be a reason for this. Seeing that Zuo Hancheng was about to leave, she quickly grabbed his arm in confusion, but she could only grab his sleeve.”Hancheng, what happened? What did Department Director Xue do?”
However, Zuo Hancheng had already dodged his arm, and Bai Weiwei’s hand froze in mid-air.””Han ”
“Miss Bai, enough is enough.” Zuo Hancheng’s cold voice was like a sharp sword. At the same time, he left the entertainment city without looking back.
