  Xiao Jiu smiled and said, “You keep staring at Uncle Shi. If you didn’t like him, would you keep starin,

  “Really?” Did she keep staring at Shi Yan?

  Xiao Jiu said, “Uncle Shi is 28 years old this year. He’s a golden bachelor and doesn’t have a girlfriend.”


  Mo Cheng was a little surprised. “He doesn’t have a girlfriend? Is it because he has high expectations?”


  Xiao Jiu thought for a while and said, “Ning Meng said Uncle Shi is too straight, so he can’t find a girlfriend.”


  Mo Cheng burst out laughing. “I think he’s fine.”


  Xiao Jiu felt if the problem was because Uncle Shi was too straight, then Uncle Ye had the same problem as well.

  There were only two days left before the family meeting commenced. As the head of the Fu family, Fu Tingyu had to attend the family meeting. Qin Shu hadn’t thought of a way to deal with it yet.

  The butler walked into the living room. “Madam Fu, Old Madam Fu is here.”


  The moment the butler finished speaking, Qin Shu saw Old Madam Fu walking in with her walking stick. She hurriedly stood up to welcome her. “Grandmother, you’re here.”


  Old Madam Fu was already very old. She even needed to use her walking stick to walk. “I’m here to take a look.”


  Old Madam Fu scanned the living room with her reading glasses on. She asked, “Where’s Little Yu?”


  Qin Shu knew from Old Madam Fu’s tone that the man’s disappearance could not be hidden. “Granny, let’s go to the study.”


  Old Madam Fu turned her head to look at Qin Shu. She saw how normal Qin Shu seemed, so she could not help feeling a little puzzled as she followed Qin Shu to the second floor.

  Qin Shu helped Old Madam Fu into the study and turned around to close the door. “Granny, take a seat first.”


  Old Madam Fu looked at the empty study and had an inexplicably bad feeling. She walked to the desk with her walking stick and sat down. She looked at Qin Shu who was walking over.

  “Hasn’t Little Yu come back from work yet?”


  Qin Shu stopped in front of the desk. Now that things had come to this, she couldn’t hide it from Old Madam Fu. “Granny, something happened to Tingyu.”


  “Did something happen? What happened?” Old Madam Fu asked hurriedly.

  Qin Shu clenched her hands and calmed herself down. She slowly said, “Tingyu met an assassin when he went to Xi Yan. He fell from the cliff into the river and has been missing for several days. I have sent people to look for him. There will be news soon.”


  “What did you say?” When Old Madam Fu heard this, she could not even hold her walking stick firmly. It fell on the wooden floor, making a crisp sound.

  “Say it again. What happened to Little Yu?” Old Madam Fu’s voice trembled violently. As an old woman, how could she be unaffected by this? If she wasn’t sitting down, she would have lost her balance a long time ago.

  Qin Shu repeated, “Granny, Tingyu has been missing for many days. The people I sent out haven’t found him, and there is no news of him. You should know better than me why I hid the news.”


  “So what they said is true?” Old Madam Fu could not accept the loss of her most talented grandson just like that. She had just heard some news, so she could not sit still in the old residence and wanted to come over to take a look.

  Qin Shu noticed how upset Old Madam Fu seemed. Since she was very old, she could not afford to get triggered, so Qin Shu quickly comforted her, “Granny, I know that you are very worried about Tingyu now, and I am also very worried, but I believe that he will come back very soon. You must also believe

  that he will be safe and sound.”


  Old Madam Fu was already in so much pain that she could not say anything. She could only listen to Qin Shu’s words and keep comforting herself.

  Old Madam Fu had lived for such a long time and had experienced many storms. Although she could not accept it, she fortunately did not faint from the shock.

  At the same time, she was also very clear that if the Fu family found out that Little Yu was missing, it would cause a huge uproar.

  Butler Fu supported Old Madam Fu as she left. She had reverted to her previous calmness as if nothing had happened.

  Qin Shu sat in front of the desk and looked at the fondant figure. Five years had passed, and the fondant figure had been preserved well.

  Her fair fingers touched the man’s cheek. She thought about how he had pried open her fingers one by one before she watched his body fall rapidly, her heart could not help but ache. “Come back soon, I really miss you.”


  She only allowed herself to be secretly weak for a while before she regained her composure and dealt with the matters that Shi Yan had brought back.

  She was busy until midnight.

  She was not in a hurry to retum to the bedroom. Instead, she stared at her phone for a long time before she sent a text message.

  [ Han Xiao, can you do mea favor? }

  Not long after the message was sent, Han Xiao called.

  “What’s wrong?” Han Xiao’s deep voice carried a hint of worry.

  Qin Shu gripped her phone tightly, trying to keep herself calm. “He encountered an assassin on Xi Yun Cliff and fell into the river. It’s been half a month, and there’s still no news. I want you to help me look for him.”


  Han Xiao was stunned for a few seconds. He could not believe what he had heard. “Why did you only tell me now? I’ll send someone to look for him immediately.”


  Qin Shu’s voice was a little choked up. “Okay, thank you, Han Xiao.”


  “Between us, there’s no need to say thank you. Your business is my business.”


  After hanging up the phone, Qin Shu’s uneasiness felt comforted. She did not know why she wanted to send a message to Han Xiao.

  Perhaps it was because she felt very safe on Qi Mountain. No matter what happened, she would subconsciously look for Han Xiao.

  After taking a shower, she lay on the bed. She had been busy for the whole day, but she was not sleepy at all.

  She was familiar with the big bed, but the familiar embrace was not around. She was used to sleeping in the arms of the man, so she could not sleep well.

  Ever since Fu Tingyu went missing, she had been suffering from insomnia. She needed sleeping pills to sleep well.

  She turned sideways and opened the drawer of the bedside cabinet. She took out sleeping pills, poured one into her palm, and swallowed it directly.

  Then she lay on the bed, quietly waiting to fall asleep.

  At this moment, her phone suddenly rang. She tured over and picked up the phone. She heard a familiar and gentle voice, “Qin Shu, don’t be afraid. We will try our best to help you find him.”


  The person who called was Jun Li but hearing his gentle voice made her heartache.

  She had just hung up when she received a call from Qin Feng.

  “Ling Bao, pull yourself together. I’ve already sent people to look for him. If he dares to leave you behind, I won’t let him off even if I go to the Underworld.”


  Following that was Hua Wuyan.

  “Ling Bao, Qi Hua is near the sea and is very close to Xi Yan. Brother Han and I have already sent out the navy to look for him, and we will do the same on land. With so many of us, even if he goes to the ends of the Earth alone, he will still be able to find him.”


  She had been pretending to be calm for the past few days, hoping to hear news about him every day. At the same time, she was very afraid to hear news about him. She was afraid that it would be bad news.

  Anticipation and fear coexisted at the same time. It was like a heavy hammer pressing down on her, making it hard for her to breathe.

  After hearing these comforting words, it felt as though she had finally found an outlet. Perhaps she really couldn’t take it anymore and couldn’t help but cry.

  The next day, in the afternoon.

  Qin Shu was still thinking about the family meeting tomorrow, but when she saw the men who suddenly appeared in front of her, she was completely stunned.
