Elite Doting Marriage: Crafty Husband, Aloof Cute Wife

Su Yue entered the President’s office, looking anxious. She simply barged in without knocking.

Wen Xuxu was wiping Yan Rusheng’s desk with a rag. Yan Rusheng wasn’t around.

Upon seeing Su Yue, Xuxu was startled.

“Third sister-in-law, do you know where Jiao Chen is?” Su Yue came to Xuxu, and she looked extremely anxious and worried.

Xuxu’s hand violently jerked, and she looked stumped for words. Shortly, she resumed her wiping and she asked, “What happened?”

Su Yue continued anxiously, “He said he will be away on a work trip for a few days. But it has been half a month, and he is still not back.”

Her eyes were red and glistening.

Xuxu paused her actions and she fell silent. She continued apprehensively, “He… did he call you?”

“He calls me every night. Although he says he is coming back soon, I’m so scared.” Su Yue glanced at Xuxu worriedly. “Is he never coming back?”

She intertwined her fingers, looking distressed and desperate.

At the sight of Su Yue, Xuxu’s eyes flickered violently. “Why would you think in that way?”

She didn’t look at Su Yue.

Su Yue noticed Xuxu’s reaction and her uneasiness mounted. She grabbed Xuxu, looking exceedingly distressed. “Third sister-in-law, do you know where he is? Can you tell me?”

Xuxu bowed and shook her head. “I have no idea.”

Su Yue was certain that something was amiss. She scrutinized Xuxu’s expression and pressed on, “Is he hiding something from me?”

Xuxu didn’t reply, instead, she tightened her grip on the rag. Su Yue noticed how tensed she looked.

She knew. She knew where Jiao Chen was.

Jiao Chen was hiding something from her.

No. Every one of them was hiding something from her.

A new wave of uneasiness and fear enveloped her entirely. She didn’t have the courage to ask further.

She paused before slowly saying, “Third sister-in-law, you must let me know if anything happens. Xiaojiao and I miss him.”

Her tears leaked from the corners of her eyes and she wiped them away. She took a deep breath and clung to Xuxu’s arm. She pleaded with desperation in her voice, “Xiaojiao is getting restless, and she is crying for her daddy every night. Third sister-in-law, just tell me where he is.”

“Yueyue…” Xuxu turned to Su Yue and her heart went out to her.

Su Yue mopped her tears away. “Third sister-in-law, you knew what happened right?”

She hugged Xuxu and sobbed. “Tell me. The day before he left, he was still drying my hair for me and he said goodnight as usual. But the next morning, he vanished.”

She was sobbing so badly that she couldn’t continue anymore.

The prickling and unsettling feeling intensified.

“I have no idea.” Xuxu put her arms around Su Yue, and she patted her back gently. “Don’t let your thoughts run wild. He calls you every night, doesn’t he?”

Her voice was slightly trembling.

“Third sister-in-law.” Su Yue retracted her hands and straightened her back. Her face was strewn with tears and she looked worked up. “If he doesn’t want me and Xiaojiao any longer, it’s fine. I won’t blame him. I just want to know where is he right now.”

She gripped Xuxu’s hand and gazed at her silently.

Xuxu’s eyes were red and welling up with tears. Her words were choked in her throat.
