Chapter 309: Yi Muyang's Disappearance
disdain, which wasn't feigned but genuine revulsion at the cheap furniture. 。"Yu'an, throw away all these furniture, Mom will buy you a new set." 。"And what are all these random paintings on the wall...Shu Tinglan had originally prepared many things she wanted to say to Yi Muyang, but at this moment, all those words instantly vanished like smoke, leaving only worry. A sense of foreboding completely enveloped her.
After looking at news from all over, there weren't any plane crashes or widespread flight delays anywhere. So the only possibility is that he didn't get on a plane
It wasn't until now that she suddenly realized she didn't seem to know where he was taking the team for training, or even what sport they were training for. She truly knew nothing.
She didn't dare to disturb his parents, so she could only rush to take a taxi to his club. The manager of the club knew her and saw that she was in a hurry, he came over with a smile and asked: "Madam boss, why are you free today"
They were all used to calling her "Madam," Shu Tinglan didn't mind, and went straight to the point.
"Where did Yi Zong and your team go for training this time"
“Training camp No way, we haven't had a competition recently.” The person in charge said nonchalantly. The handsome boy beside him kept winking at the person in charge, thinking to himself, "Since the boss's wife came looking for someone, Yi Zong must not want her to find him, so he made up an excuse about training camp and went out of town to have a good time. You're so straightforward, you tell everything."
The supervisor slapped the handsome boy and said, "You're such a sly one. Mr. Yi wouldn't cheat his boss's wife by running off to play himself."
The two of them didn't think much of it, anyway, Yi Zong's whereabouts had always been unpredictable and he wouldn't report to them or the other subordinates.
Shutinglan's heart was even more on edge, so from the beginning, he wasn't going to training camp
Calling again, but her phone was still switched off. Given Yi Mu Yang's character, if she had agreed to meet at the airport, she would definitely be there unless something unexpected happened.
Unexpectedly, she remembered Old Ding and his cousin Ding Zhi, but after flipping through her phone contacts, she surprisingly didn't have Old Ding's contact information.
No, to be more precise, she didn't have any of her friends' contact information except for Yi Muyang's. This showed how unqualified she was as a girlfriend. She immediately called Lawyer Sun and asked him to help investigate Yi Muyang's information, at least to determine his whereabouts.
When Sun, the lawyer, received her call for help, he was also very surprised because everyone knew that Yi Muyang was a reliable person and wouldn't disappear without a reason.
"Tinglan, maybe the phone just ran out of battery"
"That's impossible, you can charge your phone at the airport or on a plane. We've known each other for so long, his phone is always on."
Sun, the lawyer, didn't say anything more. She immediately asked an acquaintance to look up information about Yi Muyang.
Shu Tinglan soon received the information, Yi Muyang's last known location was Yunnan, and he had indeed booked a flight to arrive at the same time as her, but he didn't board the plane in the end.
"That must have been a change of plans due to something urgent"
"That's impossible, he would tell me if he changed the itinerary." Shu Tinglan was very certain about this, and that's exactly why she was so worried.
"Mr. Sun, I would like to take a few days off to travel to Yunnan."
"Tinglan, you're too nervous. Mr. Yi is a capable adult, and it's only been four hours since we last heard from him. Calm down, maybe his phone will turn on soon. Besides, rushing off to Yunnan without knowing the place could be dangerous. Go home first. If we still can't reach him tomorrow, we'll figure something out then."
Shu Tinglan's heart burned with urgency, but what Lawyer Sun said made sense. She had to calm herself down first. Then she went back to the club and asked for Lao Ding's contact information. It was just a hunch, but she felt this matter was related to Lao Ding's cousin, Ding Zhi.
Lao Ding didn't belong to their club, so there was no contact information. However, in the end, they still got Lao Ding's phone number through a friend of a friend.
When Shu Tinglan called, Lao Ding had just finished training, returned home, removed his prosthesis and was drinking water. Hearing her voice, he instantly raised his volume.
“Sister What brings you to call me”
"Is Yimu Yang with you" She breathed a slight sigh of relief when she connected with Lao Ding's call.
"Nothing, is something the matter" Hearing her serious voice, Lao Ding jumped up.
He went to Yunnan, but he cut off contact. He didn't go with you, did he He went with your cousin Ding Zhi, right She remembered Ding Zhi’s gloomy face, and thinking about Yi Mu Yang's dislike for Ding Zhi, she put it all together.
As soon as he heard his cousin Ding Zhi's name, Old Ding was taken aback. That should be it.
"What are they doing Is it dangerous" Shu Tinglan questioned.
"If it's my cousin Ding Zhi, then he'd probably be looking for poachers. Ah Yang should have told you about his past business in Sanjiangyuan, right"
"Go after a poachers' gang" Shu Tinglan seemed to be hearing words from another world, so far removed from her.
“Don’t worry, it’s fine. My cousin is experienced, and Ah Chang’s physical condition is excellent. Plus, they are all mature and know their limits; there won’t be any danger.” Lao Ding was not too worried; this group of people were used to facing all sorts of challenges and had grown accustomed to it.
"But he hasn't been reachable for several hours. Can you give me Ding Zhi's number" Shu Tinglan was insistent; she needed to make sure Yi Muyang was safe before she could relax.
"Okay, I'll add you on WeChat and give you his number later. But sis/bro, don't worry too much, Ah Yang knows what he's doing."
Shu Tinglan received the message and immediately called Ding Zhi. The phone rang once before he answered, his voice was very low.
"Hello"
"Where is Yi Muyang"
Ding Zhi didn't expect her to call him, so he calmly answered.
“He ran out of battery on his phone while he was with me, I’ll have him contact you later.”
A watertight answer, said and done with no room for follow-up questions.
Shu Tinglan's heart rose and fell, much like being in a hot oil pan. On one hand, he knew that he was with Ding Zhi, and judging by Ding Zhi's tone, it should be safe. However, he was still afraid that they were in danger and didn't dare to call again to disturb them. He could only silently suffer and hope for their safe return.
Actually, whenever he talked about the Sanjiangyuan matter, he always brushed it off lightly. But from his eyes, I could tell that he had never let go. If this trip with Dingzhi truly resolved the issue and put his mind at ease, then it wouldn't be in vain.
After all that back and forth, it was past 11 o'clock by the time she got home. The children were already asleep. Only Auntie Liu was still waiting for her. Seeing her return, she rushed to the kitchen to make her some supper.
Shu Tinglan was exhausted after a long day's work. On top of that, she worried about Yi Mu Yang's safety. She couldn't stomach the late-night snack and only managed a few bites before taking a shower and going to bed.
Seeing the two little children sleeping peacefully, her restless heart gradually calmed down. She felt a strange lump in her throat, as if many things always went against her wishes. She wanted to be a shield for the children, to live a peaceful life, but it was always so difficult.e talking, Gu Ruandong walked over with a grim expression. He didn't even glance at them as he passed by. But the two of them hurriedly followed him, keeping half a step behind until they reached his...
