Li Qin quickly went up to Mo Yixuan and gripped his sleeve tightly after he wrapped up his call. “Yixuan, please set aside your work for now. Let’s go find Yuan Yuan right now,” she said anxiously.

She would die if her grandson was lost to her.

Mo Yixuan helped his mother to her seat and nodded at her. Then, he drove to the police station without any hesitation. Now that his son and ex-wife were missing, he wouldn’t be able to concentrate on work anyway.

At the same time, Ye Hao and several other staff from the police station were examining the CCTV records of the streets and in particular, they were looking for the whereabouts of a black Buick on the CCTV.

“There it is…” A staff member said as he pointed toward the toll station on the highway on the screen. This car had just passed the toll station of Ye City and was probably already back in the city.

Ye Hao frowned and his hands that were on the desk suddenly balled into fists. He quickly dug out his phone to call the team leader of a squadron at the police station. “Please immediately summon the drive of AN7035 to the police station. I suspect that my wife had taken this car out of Ye City.”

Ye Hao had reported this case as a missing persons case and requested the police to find his wife’s whereabouts as soon as possible.

Yan Yan had possibly taken this car out of Ye City but from the CCTV earlier, he saw that there were no passengers in the car.

Where could his wife have gone? And this was a young male driver..

Ye Hao felt extremely even more consumed by anxiety at the thought that something terrible could have happened to her.

Soon, he dialed his secretary’s number and his secretary picked up his call.

“How’s it? Have you completed your investigation?” Ye Hao asked immediately.

His secretary replied, “We’ve found some information. From Mrs. Ye’s telecommunication signals, we were able to see that her last location was near the Chuan City bus station and her phone was turned on today at 1:12 PM. However, we can’t find her phone records so she could have bought another SIM card. From what we can tell, the last number she dialled was your number and she called you the afternoon of the day before.”

Ye Hao’s eyes widened and his heart felt like it clenched even tighter.

“Chuan City?” he muttered. Chuan City was several hundred kilometers away from Ye City and why would she be near a bus station? It was a very disorganized city and besides, Chuan City wasn’t exactly a safe city to be in.

“Continue your investigations and also check who she had last contacted on WeChat!”

Ye Hao sighed and he felt that his heart was about to burst out of his chest.

He tried calling her number again and this was the 21st time he tried contacting her but he still received the same automated message, “Sorry, the number you have dialed is not available.”

In the evening, He Xiyan went to a mother and baby store in the area to purchase several sets of clothes for Yuan Yuan and also bought a set of clothing for herself. She had left in such a hurry that she didn’t bring anything and didn’t even been a change of clothes for herself.

This was a rather large district and there were around 40 blocks in the area and Xu Jing lived on the 12th block on the western part of the district. Her parents had helped her with the deposit and she had taken a loan to purchase her flat.

The houses here were about 2,800 dollars per square meter, unlike Ye City where the prices had increased to more than 10,000 dollars per square meter. Housing prices there were extremely frightening.

She went to a fruit shop and bought some fruits. Then, she came back to Xu Jing’s place with many shopping bags by the time it was dinnertime.
