nChapter 89: Woman Was the Trump Card (II)

nTranslator: Storm in a Teacup

nXu took another sip of tea and couldn’t wait to see Zhou Xingyang’s choice.

nWhere did Zhou Xingyang go?

n

n

nAfter stepping out of the door, that man thought for a moment and then went directly to Fang Qiuhua’s wife!

nYes, he didn’t go to Fang Qiuhua as the Shadow Guardian said, but went to Zhou Huan.

nZhou Huan was slightly surprised when she heard from her maid that Zhou Xingyang had come, but she still immediately asked him to go to the hall.

nAfter Zhou Xingyang went in, he didn’t hide anything. He told Zhou Huan that Xu talked with him earlier. Most importantly, he also told her those groundless words of Xu’s.

n

n

nZhou Huan was so surprised that her facial expression changed.

nZhou Xingyang hesitated for a moment and then said, “Madam, I didn’t think of this earlier, but now… I decide to tell you.”

n“What’s that?” Zhou Huan asked at once.

n“Madam, it’s like this. The day before the young master disappeared, he asked me to buy some drunk shrimps for him. Madam, you know that Mr. Xu likes drunk shrimps best and he likes those made by the cook in the big restaurant in Shuanghua City. I guess that the young master wanted to eat that because he missed Mr. Xu. The next day, I bought the drunk shrimps for him, but… the young master went missing.”

n

n

nAccording to Fang Qiuhua, his son was sent out to do some business that day.

nHowever, if the young master really needed to go out, how could he know nothing about that in advance?

nZhou Huan’s face became a little gloomy. “So you mean the young master didn’t know he needed to go out in advance?”

nZhou Xingyang nodded. “Yes, he didn’t know that in advance.”

nZhou Huan kept silent for a while, and then waved. “Alright, I got it. You can leave.”

n“Yes.” Zhou Xingyang left.

n

n

nOne Shadow Guardian went to follow Zhou Xingyang earlier, so he got the news soon.

nAfter coming back, the Shadow Guardian told Xu about that and Xu was extremely surprised. “What? He went to Zhou Huan?”

nThe Shadow Guardian smiled. “Yes, Zhou Xingyang really has brains.”

nXu didn’t understand. “Why did you say that?”

nThe Shadow Guardian said with a smile, “Fang Qiuhua is the leader here. Given his identity, it’s very likely that he’ll tell Zhou Xingyang to shut up and drive him away if Zhou Xingyang asks him about that. He may also use other means to hush him. But if Zhou Xingyang goes to talk with Zhou Huan, things will be different. Zhou Huan loves Fang Shuoyang very much. When she learns that his son may be imprisoned and there’s something fishy about his son’s disappearance, do you think she won’t go to talk to Fang Qiuhua? It’ll be better if she, instead of a subordinate, goes to talk with his husband.”

nXu nodded after hearing the words. “That’s right. If a woman is involved in this, it’ll absolutely be a headache and all people in Tianyin post will know this!” “Right,” the Shadow Guardian continued, “Considering our presence and Zhou Huan’s identity, no matter how far she goes, Fang Qiuhua dare not do anything to hurt her!”

n“Yes.” Xu’s eyes brightened, “Because we are here.”

n“Right.” The Shadow Guardian nodded.

n

n

nXu couldn’t help but clap his hands happily. “That’s good. There’ll be a good show to for us to watch.”

nThere was indeed a good show then!

nAlthough Zhou Huan appeared calm in front of Zhou Xingyang, she almost tore a handkerchief in anger after that man left!

nNo wonder these days, she always felt there was something strange about her son’s disappearance!

nFang Qiuhua! Good! It was alright if you kept a mistress outside, but now, you even wanted to get rid of your own son?

nWere you trying to bring that woman back home? Had that woman also had children with you?

nThinking of this, Zhou became so angry that she could even eat that bastard!

nSo she went directly to Fang Qiuhua.

nOnce she arrived at the place, she pounded the table in front of him.

n“Fang Qiuhua! Tell me! Are you hiding our son?”

nFang’s pupils shrank greatly. Then, he scolded, “What are you talking about? Where did you hear all that bull**?” “Fang Qiuhua!” Zhou was prepared before she came. When she was interrogating him earlier, she stared at his eyes. So, how could she ignore the little changes of his eyes?

nAt first, Zhou just thought that her son’s disappearance might have something to do with her husband, but now, she was quite sure!

nThe changes of Fang Qiuhua’s expressions could be concealed from outsiders, but since they’d been husband and wife for decades, how could that be concealed from her?

n

n

nSo, Zhou was so sure! “Great! Fang Qiuhua, are you still human? You kept a mistress outside. I’m fine with that. But you can’t even let go of your own son! Even a tiger will not eat its cubs. Are you still human?”

n“Zhou Guan!” Fang shouted angrily, “We’ve discussed this problem many times and I’ve already said that I’m not having an affair!”

n“Really? You just acquiesced in that some time ago and now you’re denying it? Fang Qiuhua, do you think I’m stupid?” Zhou was furious.

nFang’s face turned livid with rage. “I didn’t acquiesce in that. You just never listened to my explanation!”

nZhou pounded the table again in anger. “You’re still denying it? Fang Qiuhua, let me tell you, I won’t talk about that woman. Give me my son back!”

n“Our son is missing. Don’t you know that I’ve sent many people to look for him every day?” Fang said.

n“I don’t believe it!” Zhou Huan roared.

nFang was wrathful. “Believe it or not!”

nZhou directly jumped on him. “Fang Qiuhua, you bastard! Give me my son back! Give me my son back!”

n“You’re crazy!” Fang grabbed Zhou’s hand and stopped her from beating him. “How many times do I need to tell you that our son isn’t in my hands!”

n“Fine, you won’t give him to me, will you? I’ll turn Tianyin post upside down today! I don’t believe you won’t give him to me!”

nAfter that, Zhou directly flung Fang’s hand and walked out.

nFang’s face was still livid and his teeth were gritted.

nHowever, Zhou had already left. Once she returned to her room, she asked all her servants to search the fort.

nWhen Xu heard the noises outside in the room, his eyes lit up immediately. “So they’ve begun the show? That’s so fast.”

nThe Shadow Guardian said, “I’ll tell Zhou Xingyang Fang Shuoyang’s location and ask him to find a way to let Zhou Huan go there.”

n“Be careful not to be discovered.”

nThe Shadow Guardian smiled faintly. “Don’t worry, Mr. Xu.”

nXu just said that in form. In fact, he was very confident about the Shadow Guardian’s ability.

nSo, Xu just went out to watch the show.

nOf course, Xu didn’t plan to do anything. He would just watch it!

nA “hidden weapon” hit Zhou Xingyang.

nHe caught the “hidden weapon” and found it was actually a note.

nOpening the note, he narrowed his eyes.

nThe next moment, he tore the paper into pieces.

nThen, he walked into the crowd and approached a maid quietly. After whispering something, he left the crowd quietly again.

nThen, the maid went to Zhou Huan…

nZhou Huan told her servants to look for her son, but actually, they were doing it in a rather violent way.

nShe was also living in Tianyin post and she wasn’t the kind of woman who didn’t care about anything at home, so she knew several hiding places there.

nAfter they checked two places, that maid naturally led all the people to the place where Fang Shuoyang was imprisoned.

nJust then, Fang Qiuhua rushed there.

n“When will you end all of this? Go back!”

nZhou Huan narrowed her eyes. “What did I do wrong? I’m looking for my own son at my own place. Am I wrong?”

n“Our son isn’t here!” Fang gritted his teeth.

n“I’ll see for myself!” Zhou said that while going towards the room.

nAs Fang was about to stop her, Xu came over with a smile.

n“Oh? What’s the matter?”

nOriginally, Xu didn’t want to appear. However, seeing that Fang would stop her, he thought he had to come.

nFang immediately turned his eyes to Xu.

nXu said with a smile, “Madam, what are you looking for?”

nZhou looked at Xu and said, “My son.”

n“What? Isn’t he missing? How is he at home?” Xu seemed very surprised.

nZhou said, “I suspect that Shuoyang did something to anger his father, so he was locked up. My husband didn’t let me know.”

n“Is he in there?” Xu looked inside with expectation.

nZhou said, “We’ll see after checking the place.”

nFang said, “Honey! Stop messing around!”

nZhou got angry again. “You’re messing around! What’s wrong with me looking for my son? I must find my son today!”

nZhou, regardless of the obstruction, took the lead and rushed in…

nXu rolled his eyes and then hurriedly followed up…

nFang’s face became livid with rage and one of his subordinates said with worry, “Master.”

nFang pressed his lips. “She won’t find the secret gear.”

nHis subordinate felt relieved that the young master had been transferred to the first floor underground last night…

nZhou went inside and frowned at the empty room. “He’s not here. Keep searching.”

nXu also frowned. Why was he not here?

nJust then, he saw something in the corner of the wall. Then, he exclaimed, “What is that?”

nZhou was just about to go out, but those words stunned her. “What?”

n
