Marriage first, love later: Domineering husband comes gently

Chapter 217 Can't Contact Her

Chu Chengbi nodded knowingly, looked in front of him, lost in thought.

"Haoxuan, there are some things that we really have no choice but to do, and it's not that we want to treat him that way," Chu Chengbi said with a sigh.

"Grandpa, I know," Chu Haoxuan said. He understood the old man very well in his heart. Although he was young at the beginning, he still had a little judgment ability. He knew the money that the old man gave Xu Ming back then. I didn't feel that the old man did something wrong, and I would do the same thing to the current me. Although there are many ways to treat him, this is the only way, maybe the best way, but I didn't think of it. He will come back to this city again.

Chu Chengbi suddenly looked at Chu Haoxuan seriously, and asked, "Haoxuan, if grandpa did something wrong, and one day you find out, will you hate grandpa?"

Chu Haoxuan shook his head without hesitation, looked at the old man with firm eyes, and said, "No, you are my relatives, and I will not hate you."

Chu Chengbi looked at Chu Haoxuan, didn't speak any more, but said silently in his heart, Haoxuan, if you really know, grandpa doesn't care and you will hate me, as long as you can deal with it in a sensible way, because Grandpa is selfish. In order to protect you, grandpa hurt the person you love the most.

Seeing that the old man didn't speak, Chu Haoxuan didn't know what to say.

The atmosphere in the whole study room was extremely depressing, suddenly the old man smiled, patted Chu Haoxuan on the shoulder, and said, "Haoxuan, with you here, grandpa doesn't worry about anything, grandpa believes in you, you will definitely handle it well .”

"En," Chu Haoxuan nodded, "Grandpa, you just need to take care of your body. Ning Xuan and I are too busy to take care of you. You must take care of yourself. If there is anything, you can give me a hand with you." Ning Xuan called."

"En, good," Chu Chengbi readily agreed, but there was a layer of mist in his eyes. He knew his own body better than anyone else, and he endured the tormenting pain every night, so he could only bear it silently.

The butler outside the door sensed movement in the study, and quickly and softly left the study door and went downstairs.

Chu Haoxuan went downstairs and saw the housekeeper sorting out the newspapers that the old man had read in the living room. Chu Haoxuan said to the housekeeper, "Housekeeper, I'm going out. If you have time in the afternoon, go for a walk with the old man."

The butler looked at Chu Haoxuan with a smile, "I know, Haoxuan, go get busy."

"En," Chu Haoxuan nodded, not having much trust in his heart, he turned and left Shen Ningxuan to Jinshui Group, and went to work as usual.

Lu Shiqi stood at the door of Shen Ningxuan's office, saw Shen Ningxuan working seriously, smiled happily, knocked on the door, opened it and walked in.

"Sister-in-law," Lu Shiqi said happily.

"Shiqi," Shen Ningxuan was obviously a little surprised. How could Lu Shiqi come to her office? In the company, she is the chairman. If there is something about work, she should go to her office to find her.

"What? Are you so surprised to see me coming?" Lu Shiqi sat down opposite Shen Ningxuan.

"No, no," Shen Ningxuan said quickly, "It's just that I didn't expect that you are here because you have a job?"

"No, I don't have any work today, so I came to see you," Lu Shiqi said with a smile.

Seeing Lu Shiqi so happy, Shen Ningxuan was also in a very good mood, and asked Lu Shiqi with a smile, "Hey, why is our Miss Lu family so happy today? Is there anything happy?"

As soon as Shen Ningxuan finished speaking, Lu Shiqi blushed all of a sudden, lowered her head quickly, and said, "Why, nothing happened in the company today."

Shen Ningxuan guessed in her heart, since nothing happened today, what about yesterday?

Suddenly, Shen Ningxuan thought, could it be because of Yu Wenye?

Shen Ningxuan looked at Lu Shiqi in surprise, and said, "Could it be because of my brother?"

Lu Shiqi knew that Shen Ningxuan had guessed it, she didn't speak, looked at Shen Ningxuan, and smiled.

Shen Ningxuan suddenly became curious, stood up quickly, approached Lu Shiqi, and hurriedly asked, "Tell me quickly, how far have you guys developed?"

"It didn't develop to such a degree, but he sent me home last night," Lu Shiqi's expression was as sweet as drinking honey.

"That's the only way?" Shen Ningxuan was a little confused, based on what she knew about that big brother, he should take care of Lu Shiqi in every possible way, not just to send Lu Shiqi home, right?
Seeing Shen Ningxuan's suspicious look, Lu Shiqi knew that there was something she couldn't hide from her, so she should confess.

"We left the party and had a supper before returning home," Lu Shiqi said.

Shen Ningxuan put on a serious look, nodded, and said, "Well, it's not bad, it has a bright future."

Lu Shiqi looked at Shen Ningxuan's appearance, and said shyly, "Actually, sister-in-law, I came to ask you about him. I want to know him."

Shen Ningxuan looked at Lu Shiqi happily, such a good thing couldn't be better, "Okay, let's have afternoon tea someday, and I will tell you about my brother in detail."

"En," Lu Shiqi happily nodded vigorously.

Seeing Lu Shiqi's innocent appearance, Shen Ningxuan was very happy in her heart. She was like a doll in a greenhouse, always so innocent and cute, exuding a delicate aura. If she could really be with Yu Wenye, she would definitely Will be happy, Yu Wenye knows it all too well, he can see that he has a good impression of Shiqi, and he hopes that he is happy, and even more so that Shiqi is happy.

Shen Ningxuan chatted with Lu Shiqi for a while, and Lu Shiqi answered a phone call, because there were important matters in other departments that Lu Shiqi needed to deal with, so Lu Shiqi left.

After sending Lu Shiqi away, Shen Ningxuan sat down at her desk and glanced at her watch, it was 55:[-].

Shen Ningxuan suddenly remembered Xu Ming who was at the party last night, and he told himself to call him at ten o'clock today, and he would tell himself about Chu Haoxuan.

Shen Ningxuan found Xu Ming's fame, picked up her mobile phone, and dialed Xu Ming's number.

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, Xu Ming heard the phone ringing in his hand. He picked it up and saw that it was an unknown number, and it was from a local area. He didn't need to guess that it was Shen Ningxuan, because the time on the phone was exactly ten o'clock.

The corner of Xu Ming's mouth drew an arc, and he said with a smile in his heart, Shen Ningxuan, you are really punctual.

Xu Ming answered the phone and said coldly, "Hello."

"Hello, I'm Shen Ningxuan," Shen Ningxuan said calmly while sitting in the office.

"You're pretty punctual," Xu Ming said.

Shen Ningxuan couldn't tell whether Xu Ming was mocking herself or praising herself, so after thinking about it, she said to the phone, "Say, you will tell me about him, I want to know about him"

Shen Ningxuan was interrupted by Xu Ming before she finished speaking.

"South District Yaju Bieyuan, 32nd Floor, Building D," Xu Ming said directly.

"What, what?" Shen Ningxuan didn't respond yet, what's going on?

"Come here within an hour," Xu Ming ordered.

"What's that place? Why should I go there?" Shen Ningxuan asked suspiciously.

"My house," Xu Ming finished, and hung up the phone directly.

Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Shen Ningxuan also hung up the phone, but she was a little worried, what does Xu Ming mean?Did you let yourself go to his house to find him?But I don't know Xu Ming at all, so how can I go to his house to find him?
When Shen Ningxuan was hesitating, Shen Ningxuan's cell phone rang. Shen Ningxuan saw that it was a text message, sent by Xu Ming.

"If it's less than an hour, you will never know about Chu Haoxuan, because, in this world, no one will take the initiative to tell you except me."

When Shen Ningxuan saw this text message, she became nervous. This is an opportunity and an unknown path. Do you want to go?

In the end, Shen Ningxuan still decided to go. Shen Ningxuan told herself that knowing about Chu Haoxuan was more important than anything else. She loved him and wanted to understand him. These doubts had been troubling her heart, and now finally there was someone who was willing to tell How could I give up such a good opportunity?

Shen Ningxuan quickly explained her work, picked up her bag and walked out of the office.

Shen Ningxuan was driving the car, counting the time, checking the navigation to find Xu Ming's home.

Arriving at the gate of a remote apartment complex, Shen Ningxuan took a look at the surrounding environment. Although the place is very remote, the buildings in the entire community look very unique, and there is an aristocratic atmosphere at first glance.

Shen Ningxuan drove the car to the door and said to the security guard at the door, "Hi, I'm here to find Xu Ming."

The security guard nodded, as if he knew that someone was coming to find Xu Ming, and said to Shen Ningxuan, "Well, let's go in."

Shen Ningxuan didn't pay much attention, and drove into the community.

Xu Ming had already stood in the monitoring room of the community, and when he saw Shen Ningxuan's car appearing on the screen, his heart began to beat wildly, because he was going to do some crazy things next.

Shen Ningxuan found a parking space, parked the car, got out of the car, and looked for building D in the community.

After turning around a lot, Shen Ningxuan finally found building D, which is already in the innermost part of the community, and it is the most remote location.

Shen Ningxuan walked into Building D and stood on the first floor waiting for the elevator.

Xu Ming looked at Shen Ningxuan in the monitoring room. Her calm appearance made him feel a little uneasy. If there were no accidents, she would see him with such an expression.

At this time, the mobile phone in Xu Ming's hand rang, Xu Ming did not look at the caller ID of the mobile phone, and directly connected the call.

"Say," Xu Ming said coldly.

"She's waiting for the elevator," said a man's voice on the phone.

"Proceed as planned," Xu Ming ordered directly.

"Yes."

Shen Ningxuan saw the elevator door open, walked into the elevator naturally, and pressed the 32nd floor.

Xu Ming was in the monitoring room and saw the elevator monitoring screen. She looked very calm.

In an instant, the entire monitor turned black, pure black, and nothing could be seen clearly.

Xu Ming's heart trembled uncontrollably, as if Shen Ningxuan had disappeared from his eyes immediately.

Xu Ming knew better than anyone else that the elevator stopped running, and Shen Ningxuan was still in the elevator.

With a smile on the corner of Xu Ming's mouth, he turned and walked out of the monitoring room.

Shen Ningxuan trembled and squatted in the corner of the elevator in fear. The sudden darkness just now, coupled with the instant speed of the elevator's slide, had already frightened her silly. She had often seen news about elevator accidents before, but today, she really When I met him for the first time, I was so scared.

Shen Ningxuan opened her eyes, but she couldn't see anything clearly, only the darkness, Shen Ningxuan's hand slowly fumbled for her mobile phone.

After finding the mobile phone in the bag, Shen Ningxuan immediately took out the mobile phone, pressed it, and the screen of the mobile phone immediately lit up, and a little light appeared in front of Shen Ningxuan's eyes.

Shen Ningxuan couldn't help but looked around, there was no sign of damage in the fully enclosed elevator, and the elevator door was still closed.

Shen Ningxuan stood up immediately, ran to the elevator door, held the mobile phone in one hand to illuminate the light, and patted the elevator door with the other hand, shouting loudly, "Is there anyone? Is there anyone?"

Shen Ningxuan tried to push open the elevator door, but she couldn't push it open at all. No matter how hard she tried, the surroundings were like solid walls, and she couldn't escape at all.

Suddenly, Shen Ningxuan thought of other ways to call for help, and hurriedly called on her mobile phone, but she couldn't make a call, and there was no signal at all.

Shen Ningxuan squatted helplessly in the elevator, her mind went blank, she suddenly didn't know what to do.

When Xu Ming walked out of Building A, a man in security overalls was already standing not far away, waiting for Xu Ming.

Xu Ming approached that person.

"Everything is done according to what you said. All the vents are blocked. Within an hour, she will die because of difficulty breathing." Before the man could speak, Xu Ming interrupted.

"I'm sure there's nothing wrong with it." When Xu Ming said this, his heart was trembling, not because of fear, but because of an indescribable feeling.

"There will be nothing wrong, as long as no one comes to rescue her, she will definitely die after one day," the man looked at Xu Ming with certainty, and continued, "Besides, Building D belongs to you, you don't want to go in , who will go in?"

Xu Ming took out a bank card, mailed it to that person, and said casually, "Get lost."

The man took the bank card in Xu Ming's hand with disdain, looked at Xu Ming and smiled slightly, and said, "You are really generous, you would not hesitate to pay such a high price just to kill a woman."

Xu Ming stared fiercely at the person in front of him, and said angrily, "Do I need to repeat it a second time?"

Seeing that Xu Ming was angry, the man turned around and left without saying a word.

Xu Ming walked to his car. Before getting into the car, he couldn't help but take a look at the building in Building D. Then he got in the car and drove away. The world is complicated, if he can't get out alive, what should his son do?Will Chu Haoxuan take good care of his son?

Shen Ningxuan burst into tears, she wanted her son, Chu Haoxuan, her son was still so young, she wanted to be by his side, and Chu Haoxuan, she wanted to protect him, snuggle into his arms, and hear his heartbeat Voice.

Suddenly, the cell phone ran out of battery, and the entire elevator was filled with darkness. Shen Ningxuan couldn't help talking to herself, "Haoxuan, where are you? Help me."

As time passed by, Shen Ningxuan gradually felt a little dizzy and her breathing was a little uncomfortable.

Lu Shiqi was sitting in her office, browsing a file, encountered some problems, she didn't understand, she wanted to call Shen Ningxuan to find out.

Lu Shiqi called Shen Ningxuan through the internal line. She called twice, but no one answered.

Unintentionally, Lu Shiqi called Shen Ningxuan again, but the phone was not in the service area all the time. Lu Shiqi was a little depressed, so she directly said to secretary Wu Juan, "Go down and call Ningxuan, and ask her to come to my office."

"Okay," Wu Juan replied with a nod.

Wu Juan walked to the door of Shen Ningxuan's office and knocked on the door for a long time, but no one opened it. Wu Juan opened the door and saw that there was no one inside. Where can Shen Ningxuan go now during working hours?

Wu Juan asked her colleagues nearby, and a colleague said that she saw Shen Ningxuan going out with her bag, so she probably went outside to talk to clients.

Wu Juan returned to Lu Shiqi's office, stood in front of Lu Shiqi, and said respectfully, "Mr. Lu, Ning Xuan is not in the office. The colleagues in their department said that they might have gone out to talk with clients. Some colleagues saw her going out with a bag."

"Oh, I still want to ask her about this document," Lu Shiqi said while sorting out the documents beside her, not paying much attention to it.

"Why don't you ask her when she comes back in the afternoon. She thinks she will have dinner with the client at noon, and she should be back in the afternoon," Wu Juan said, thinking that Shen Ningxuan is not a person who arrives late and leaves early. She has always been very dedicated to her work. , I still know her quite well.

"Well, tell the deputy director, Ningxuan is back this afternoon, let her come to my office," Lu Shiqi finished, put the document down, and continued to be busy with the next thing.

"Okay," Wu Juan finished, seeing that Lu Shiqi continued to be busy, she turned and left Lu Shiqi's office.

Just after Lu Shiqi looked at the document for a while, the cell phone rang. Lu Shiqi picked up the cell phone and saw that it was Chu Haoxuan's call. Lu Shiqi looked at the phone and smiled, and connected the call.

"Hey, brother Haoxuan," Lu Shiqi said with a smile.

"Shiqi, are you at the company? Why can't you get through to your sister-in-law?" Chu Haoxuan asked.

"Oh," Lu Shiqi said calmly, "Sister-in-law is out to talk about clients, maybe there is no signal there, I also called sister-in-law just now, but I didn't get through, I guess I will be back at the company in the afternoon."

Hearing Lu Shiqi's tone, Chu Haoxuan felt that his worries should be superfluous, and Shen Ningxuan should be fine.

"Well, she's going back to the company this afternoon, ask her to call me," Chu Haoxuan said.

Lu Shiqi hurriedly asked, "Brother Haoxuan, is there something urgent for you? How about I send a colleague to find my sister-in-law?"

"No need, since she's working, let her work hard. I have nothing to do, but I didn't call her, and I'm afraid something will happen to her," Chu Haoxuan said.

Lu Shiqi smiled and said, "Sister-in-law is such a grown-up, are you still afraid that she will lose her? Don't worry, sister-in-law is fine. I'll ask her to call you when she comes back."

"Well, then you should be busy," Chu Haoxuan said.

"Okay, bye."

After hanging up the phone, Chu Haoxuan held the phone tightly in his hand. He always had an inexplicable feeling in his heart. He couldn't tell whether it was because he was worried about Shen Ningxuan or something else, but he always felt a tightness in his chest.

Chu Haoxuan recalled what Lu Shiqi said just now, thinking in his heart that nothing would happen to Shen Ningxuan, just like what Lu Shiqi said, how could she lose such a big person, she just went out to work and didn't go out to do anything, For Lu Shiqi, she can still be sure.
