CHAPTER 277: CHAPTER 278: THE FOOLISH GIRL MISSES HER HUSBAND

The news of Shi Lingyan’s accident was covered up.

The family was simply told that Shi Lingyan was on a business trip, that the work was complicated, and that he would be home late.

All work was pushed aside and no trace of him could be found, even on calls or video chats.

All matters were handed over to Yun Du to manage.

The first to sense that something was amiss was his good friend, Bao Gui.

Under pressure, Yun Du confessed everything, his frustration boiling over, rendering Bao Gui silent.

"How is he now?"

"He has passed the critical phase but lost a lot of blood and is still in a coma," Yun Du said, turning his head away in anger, "The boss was smart all his life, but he was foolish this time. How could that woman resemble Tang Wu at all? It’s all because of that woman’s skill; she deceived the boss so badly. She’d better not show up in front of me again, or I will definitely arrest her and take her to the police station!"

"Alright, man," Bao Gui patted his shoulder, "Keep those thoughts to yourself, he wouldn’t like hearing that."

Yun Du sighed deeply, his heart aching.

Bao Gui put a cigarette in his mouth, unlit, lost in cravings, "I actually want to meet that woman, to see what makes her so capable of tricking Mr. Shi like this."

Under such circumstances, Shi Lingyan almost lost his life.

The woman had really gone for the kill, and if the hospital arrival had been delayed any longer, he might have died.

Yun Du was furious but powerless.

The second to notice something was off was Tang Jingming.

Shi Lingyan, no matter how busy, would not ignore his calls.

Something was definitely wrong!

A little investigation revealed Shi Lingyan’s condition, which nearly caused him to fall off his chair.

So, he took a flight and rushed over immediately.

Fortunately, Shi Lingyan had always been physically strong and had already surpassed the critical phase, with no immediate danger to his life.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

When Ye Tiao pushed open the shabby hotel room door, the room was as quiet as if no one was there.

Ye Tiao immediately saw the clothes drying on a chair and a table.

But it had been raining heavily for two days outside, the person in the room hadn’t gone out, and the clothes were just draped there, unable to dry, with a moldy smell rising in the air.

And there on the white bed, Shi Mei lay naked, seemingly oblivious to her arrival, silent and unmoving.

Ye Tiao placed the take-out on the simple table and sat beside her bed, sighing lightly, "You really know how to hide. If I hadn’t tracked the ID number from your fake ID and found that you had checked in here, were you planning not to contact me at all?"

Shi Mei didn’t move.

"Great, here you are, hiding out for days, and everyone outside says you’re missing, they can’t find you, calls are coming to me, now everyone’s panicked, thinking you’re dead." Ye Tiao threw the clothes he’d brought onto her bed, "Get up, get dressed, eat something."

Shi Mei finally showed a reaction, glancing at the clothes Ye Tiao had brought.

They were all pink bunny outfits.

Ye Tiao was startled by her appearance.

She looked as if she hadn’t slept in days, with dark circles so severe her own mother wouldn’t recognize her, those eyes exuding an indescribably gloomy air that made one extremely uncomfortable.

Dead air.

This was Shi Mei’s current state.

Just as Ye Tiao was about to ask what was going on, he heard her hoarse voice, "What’s with these clothes?"

"Ah, it’s been so many days, the little fool must be missing her husband by now, right? Change into these clothes, video call him, act cute, kiss a few times, the smoochy kind of kiss!"
