Chapter 327: I Don't Want to Be with You Anymore (5)

With his body already stiff, Si Zhengting froze once more. Lifting up his eyes, he was too emotionally spent to conceal his astonishment. “What do you mean ‘missing’?”

His tone was filled with a fear that even he was unaware of.

The butler hurriedly said, “Dazhuang had been driving the car and following Madam, but she just didn’t want to get on. Instead, she ran into a narrow alleyway that the car couldn’t enter. By the time Dazhuang stopped the car to get out and chase her, he realized that she had gone missing. We’ve sent people out to look for her, but there’s been no news.”

Si Zhengting’s heart tightened. Slightly panicked, he stood up abruptly, but the moment he was about to put his foot forward, he paused once more.

What was going to happen after he managed to find her?

He clenched his fists tightly.

The butler lifted his eyes, but seeing the state that Si Zhengting was in, he quickly lowered them again. Sighing, he began to speak intentionally for Si Zhengting to hear. “Oh dear, Madam’s just a young girl, and it’s already so late at night. Public safety has been bad recently… I’ve heard of how a murderer on the run for the past five or six years has come to Beijing, and the area around our villa is rather quiet and deserted, unlike the city center…”

Before he could finish, the once-hesitant figure in front of him had already rushed out.

Looking at Si Zhengting’s silhouette, the butler shook his head and sighed. “Young people nowadays are so hot-headed. Running away from home every now and then because of fights! What’s the point?”

However, in the past, it was always Madam who would chase after Sir when he left first.

This time, it was Madam who left first. She must have been extremely saddened. And how could a gentleman like Sir not go to look for her in person?

At the thought of this, he put his hands behind his back and leisurely strolled out of the study room, whistling. After a while, he took out a walkie-talkie from his pocket and instructed Dazhuang, “Just follow Madam from a distance so long as you can ensure her safety. Keep your distance and don’t expose yourself! Your work will be accomplished the moment you see Sir.”

Zhuang Nainai rushed out of the Si villa. She ran for a few kilometers and stopped only when she began panting hard.

Beijing’s night view was not dark at all.

Neon lights lined the streets. The only thing was that it was already one in the morning, so other than the occasional car, there was absolutely nobody along the roads.

As she stood there, panting heavily, the painful, suffocating feeling in her chest made her heart feel a little bit better.

Then, gazing at the intersection in front of her, dazed, she didn’t know which way to go.

It used to be that home was where Mother was.

But now, having left the Si villa, there was nowhere she could go to in the large city of Beijing.

Her eyes began to sting as his heartless expression flashed once more before her eyes. His mistrusting gaze made her feel as if she was being ripped open and marauded with pain, and she didn’t dare to breathe harder than she already was.

Forcing her tears back in, she told herself inwardly, Zhuang Nainai, don’t cry.

He didn’t believe her simply because he didn’t love her.

And if this was the case, why should she shed even one more tear for him?

Giving a self-mocking laugh, Zhuang Nainai lowered her head and randomly chose a path to walk down on.

In her hurry to leave the house, she had forgotten to bring anything with her.

She didn’t know how long she had been walking for, but as the cold wind blew in droves, the sweat that she had worked up from running evaporated into the night sky.
