Chapter 823: Chapter 821: Bullet Screen Scam 43
A day has passed.
Still no news of the yacht, not a single signal.
But the people on board the yacht were actually unaffected, continuing to enjoy themselves as originally planned. Shen Muyang and others indulged in their play, naturally uninterested in outside affairs.
At this time, many were unaware that people were searching for their whereabouts.
Of course, since the matter hadn’t spread, only those involved knew that the yacht’s location was currently undetectable.
Having been suppressed for a long time, Shen Muyang was releasing his pent-up emotions on the yacht.
Insiders had also heard that Chen Qing had suffered a mental breakdown due to Shen Muyang’s disappearance, and some even suspected that Qiao Chen had hijacked the yacht.
Many who heard this just chuckled, finding it unbelievable and truly thinking Chen Qing had gone mad.
Upon hearing this, Ning Xueren involuntarily recalled the previous incident where someone accused Qiao Chen, causing her heart to skip a beat.
Regardless, Shen Muyang and the yacht had truly vanished without a trace now.
If it wasn’t an accident, who else could possess the capability to silently hijack the yacht without a hint of news?
With the start of school approaching, Ning Xueren had been planning to review her books.
But thinking of Shen Muyang’s disappearance, she couldn’t calm her mind.
Finally, she decided to visit the Shen Family.
After all, Shen Muyang had helped her out in the past, so checking in shouldn’t be an issue now that he was missing.
When she arrived at the Shen Family’s place, Ah Chen was also there.
Ah Chen noticed the curiosity in Ning Xueren’s gaze, remaining unfazed.
Ah Chen had come to the Shen Family intending to visit the psychiatric hospital with Shen Muzhi to see Chen Qing.
"I’ll go too," Ning Xueren said. "Shen Muyang helped me out a few times, and now that he’s missing, I’m really worried and hope he’s okay."
As she said this, Ning Xueren couldn’t help but look towards Ah Chen, seemingly trying to discern something from her expression.
Last time’s accusation yielded no results, but now with Chen Qing mad and Shen Muyang truly missing, any suspicion could be the truth; she couldn’t dismiss it.
Ah Chen naturally let Ning Xueren scrutinize her, and from observation, Ning Xueren seemed unaware of the things the Shen Family was doing behind the scenes.
She later chose to marry Shen Muyang, perhaps due to affection.
Their ultimate fate remained unknown; the commissioner didn’t live to see that time.
Sitting in the car, Ning Xueren didn’t say much, just occasionally observed Ah Chen beside her, noting nothing amiss.
She occasionally dialed a number, attempting to connect, the number was undoubtedly Shen Muyang’s.
"You like Brother Muyang, huh?" Ah Chen leaned over and whispered.
Ning Xueren froze for a moment, then blushed slightly without speaking, her expression betraying her.
"He’ll be okay; he’ll definitely be found," Ah Chen comforted.
This statement wasn’t false.
Yet, Ning Xueren was destined to be without ties to Shen Muyang, given his fate either led to prison or a psychiatric hospital.
Unless she was overwhelmingly love-struck, disregarding all for love.
But she believed Ning Xueren wasn’t the type to ignore consequences, nor was she that foolish.
Perhaps once she knew what the Shen Family was hiding, she’d slowly set aside her past feelings.
"I also hope he returns safely," Ning Xueren sighed, her beautiful eyes still studying Ah Chen, but found nothing suspicious.
Qiao Chen seemed genuinely eager for Shen Muyang’s return.
She was now somewhat confused, unable to guess what the truth might be.
Sitting in the front, Shen Muzhi’s expression was somewhat grim; he’d already experienced Qiao Chen’s acting skills, ordinary people couldn’t see through the facade. Even he would have been deceived if he hadn’t known her true nature beforehand.
The little brother wasn’t coming back.
How could Qiao Chen utter such words with ease?
Did she have no heart?
To satisfy Rong Yu, she schemed to cost the little brother’s life.
Sometimes he couldn’t hold back; she always aimed precisely at his points of anger.
Seeing that face stirred the impulse to tear off her mask, exposing her true self to everyone.
But she was clearly clever; even though they could observe her actions at all times, they hadn’t managed to seize any evidence.
She was still young; once she’s older, with more experiences, she’d surely be harder to deal with.
Three years, by the time Qiao Chen is twenty, will their plan really come to fruition?
The usually confident Shen Muzhi began to doubt life at this juncture.
Psychiatric hospital.
Ah Chen met Chen Qing, who currently appeared to have stable emotions.
However, upon seeing her, Chen Qing grew agitated again, angrily demanding from Ah Chen her son back.
Perhaps having endured enough recently, now diagnosed as "mentally ill," Chen Qing wanted to vent properly.
Her overseer wasn’t Qiao Chen, so she wasn’t entirely concerned about being unable to exit.
Once time allowed and her "illness gradually improved," the Shen Family could easily retrieve her.
A whole day had passed; Chen Qing completely doubted her younger son was still alive, her heart filled with anger and madness, so upon seeing Ah Chen, she disregarded her image and cursed wildly, venting her inner grievances and resentment.
"I guess it’s the last accusation that made Aunt Chen think I harmed Brother Muyang, that’s why she can’t stand me," Ah Chen sighed. "I should avoid coming over temporarily, lest I aggravate her condition; today looks worse than yesterday."
"I’m sorry, Xiao Chen, my mom scared you again. She’s now mentally chaotic, fixating on this matter, and it’s hard to change her perception," Shen Muzhi apologized sincerely.
Ah Chen naturally wasn’t bothered, and after seeing Chen Qing, she exchanged a few words with her doctor.
After which, Shen Muzhi intended to speak with Chen Qing alone, hoping it might stabilize her emotions.
Ah Chen and Ning Xueren waited outside, both remaining quiet.
Ning Xueren still showed disbelief, how the once elegant Chen Qing revealed such a side in no time.
Indeed seemed mentally deranged.
If so, Qiao Chen may not necessarily be the one responsible for Shen Muyang’s misfortune.
At least for now, the police had ruled out Qiao Chen’s suspicion. Of course, they also didn’t dismiss the possibility that she had hidden too well, making it difficult to detect anything amiss.
"I really want to kill her," Chen Qing’s voice lowered, some teeth grinding, "Since I’m now in this mental state, why can’t I just teach her a lesson? At least get some relief."
"Can you set up an opportunity so I can deal her a blow first?"
Seeing Shen Muzhi hesitating, Chen Qing grew excited, lowering her voice even more: "Your brother is gone; are you really going to watch her live so comfortably?"
Her face was vicious and brutal, truly resembling those deranged mental patients who attack others.
