His heart instantly started beating wildly.

"Dongzhige?" Shen Ming Xi's delicate face turned pale white, as she couldn't understand why Shen Dong Zhe had suddenly pulled her over.

"Don't move!" A tinge of scarlet stained Shen Dong Zhe's eyes. He didn't know why he would lose control and want to hug Shen Ming Xi like this.

After encountering so many things, this girl was so quiet that he couldn't find any excuses to stay by her side!

Shen Ming Xi's heartbeat was as fast as thunder, and she clearly felt Shen Dong Zhe's firm palm from the back of her heart.

Since when, she thought to herself, did the boy who had been secretly in love with her for so many years become so different from what she remembered of him?

"Dongzhige!" A peculiar feeling suddenly came to her mind. Shen Ming Xi's heartbeat became even faster, her mind quickly flashed past the human figure, causing her to be unable to grasp hold of it, but she could not ignore his existence!

If Si Tu Ye saw it …

"I'm sorry!" forced herself to take a step back, forcefully pulling apart the distance between him and Shen Dong Zhe.

She lowered her head, and did not dare to look into Shen Dong Zhe's eyes, but her deep voice, unintentionally, was filled with a deep sense of guilt.

With his arms suddenly empty, Shen Dong Zhe seemed to find it hard to believe. His long and narrow eyes lowered as he looked past himself and Shen Ming Xi who also had her head lowered.

"Why?" He heard his own voice mumbling to himself. Although he wasn't completely confident that Shen Ming Xi would truly like him, but those gazes that were everywhere made Shen Dong Zhe unable to help herself from thinking in this regard.

In the past, Shen Ming Xi was a high and mighty princess. As a cultural industry in the Shen family, the Shen family could not compare to the wealthy family.

Witnessing the Shen Family's downfall with his own eyes, Shen Dong Zhe couldn't help but cherish Shen Ming Xi on one hand, and be happy on the other.

If he still pursued Shen Ming Xi at this time, there would be no one left to say anything else.

The moment he mustered the courage to hug Shen Ming Xi, no one knew how much determination it would take for him to do so.

That short moment was followed by overwhelming surprise!

Shen Ming Xi lowered her head, and the summer wind gently blew at her skirt.

"I'm sorry!" Shen Ming Xi suddenly lost the courage to face Shen Dong Zhe. The memories that were buried deep in her heart for who knows how long were blown away by the wind by the edge of her skirt, "I still have things to do, so I'll be leaving first!"

In the next moment, without waiting for Shen Dong Zhe's orders, Shen Ming Xi had already quickly turned around and walked out onto the main road.

The two of them, none of them saw that just before Shen Ming Xi turned around, a shadow had flashed past the window of the bathroom on the second floor of the teaching building.

The night gradually darkened.

In Rose Manor, the study room was lit up early.

But the man behind the desk, his handsome profile, did not recover from his anger for a long time.

Leng Yan, who was standing opposite of the desk, slightly lowered his head, and did not dare to say anything else. "I've already asked a lot of people, but there's still no news!"

"No news!"

Snap

The document in Si Tu Ye's hand, along with the pen, was lifted up by his powerful and slender arm and rolled onto the carpet.

The man's anger, like a dark sea, swept across the study in the dark.

Leng Yan's head drooped even lower, his lower jaw practically poking into the collar of his shirt.

No one would have thought that the driver, Lao Gu, would be waiting at the door half an hour before school ended. Yet, he did not see Shen Ming Xi come out at all.

Her classmates said that she even had class in the afternoon and left with them after class.

However, since then, no one saw Shen Ming Xi.

Nothing had happened, so where had she gone?

The phone that was originally used to contact her at any time was turned off. Even its positioning system was unable to pinpoint her current location.

Shen Ming Xi seemed to have suddenly disappeared from this world!

"Did you look for them in the school?"

Si Tu Ye's voice once again recovered its calmness, but only Leng Yan knew what kind of rage was behind his calm voice!

If it was an ordinary woman, then so be it. A man like Si Tu Ye wouldn't waste too much time and effort on a woman.

But Shen Ming Xi!

Shen Ming Xi was also an ordinary woman, but to Si Tu Ye, there were faint traces of unusualness.

"I've already looked for the places I should look for, even the student hostel and Miss Shen's previous residence. She hasn't returned yet."

"Where's the library?" Si Tu Ye could still vaguely remember that Shen Ming Xi seemed to like soaking in the library. His arrogant and despotic personality was originally out of place within the library, even though she had heard it a few times and did not forget about it.

Leng Yan still shook his head.

At the bottom of Si Tu Ye's pitch black and deep eyes, as Leng Yan shook his head again and again, a trace of maliciousness that corroded bone gradually filled the room!

That woman was really brave. She actually dared to run away?

"Young master, could it be..." Leng Yan hesitated for a bit, and had to remind Si Tu Ye from the side, "Only when Lao Gu delivers the Miss Shen after class will she think that we have already relaxed, so …"

"Impossible!" Before Leng Yan even finished speaking, Si Tu Ye's sinister voice was already firm and decisive, like a thunderstorm late in the summer, abruptly cutting off Leng Yan's thoughts.

That pair of eyes that resembled a deep pool stared fixedly at the garden outside the window that was already shrouded by the night: "Shen Ming Xi, how could she dare!"

However, it was still a fact that he couldn't find the person!

Before Leng Yan even had the chance to speak, Si Tu Ye had already twisted the center of his brows, his entire body emitting a bone-piercing chill: "Go and investigate Si Tu Huan's whereabouts!"

He could not accept that he had brought Shen Ming Xi back, so he wanted to take her away secretly?

Si Tu Ye would never forget the scene when Shen Ming Xi fell in Huang Fu Si's arms at the bar that day!

Leng Yan paused, and quickly understood what Si Tu Ye meant, "Yes!"

The driver, Lao Gu, had already returned to Rose Manor from T Large and was waiting in the garden downstairs. Suddenly, he heard the sound of footsteps coming from afar, and immediately raised his head.

Si Tu Ye had already walked over quickly. Without waiting for Lao Gu to get off the carriage, he waved his hand and immediately opened the back door of the car. He was dressed in a black suit and leather shoes, which made the atmosphere and darkness around him blend together as he quickly bent over and entered the car.

"Young master, now …" Lao Gu also ran all night, but he was in charge of sending Shen Ming Xi off from school, and in the afternoon, he did not receive anyone. Although it did not have much to do with him, but in the event of Shen Ming Xi's accident, the people around him would be in danger, and he would be included in this!

Before Lao Gu could finish speaking, Si Tu Ye's pitch-black eyes stared coldly at the light colored rose garden outside the window. His lips were pursed into a straight line as he said: "T Large!"
