Chapter 216 - 215: Elder Sister’s Phone Call (1)
The carriage was exceedingly quiet, Old Zhu occasionally lifted his head to glance at the rearview mirror, observing Shi Che supporting his forehead, his brows deeply furrowed, clearly in extreme discomfort, yet he seemed unwilling to go to the hospital for some reason.
Old Zhu sighed softly in his heart, unconsciously pressing down on the gas pedal, speeding up.
When they arrived at the villa, before Old Zhu had the chance to get out of the car to open the door for Shi Che, Shi Che had already stepped out of the car. With one long stride, he entered the house. His dark eyes swept around the room without a trace, but apart from the anxious Sister Hua who came to greet him, there was no other figure. His gaze darkened in an instant, becoming gloomy and lightless.
Xiao Zhao caught up from behind, barely catching his breath before quickly speaking up, "President Shi, I’ve found out that Miss Ji has been in the country ever since she returned secretly last time. I think, Young Madam must be with Miss Ji."
There seemed to be a brief flash of light in Shi Che’s darkened gaze, but it vanished just as quickly. His lips were tightly pressed, and he said nothing.
Xiao Zhao glanced at his face, a slight confusion in his eyes. Now that he had confirmed where Young Madam was, why wasn’t President Shi making a move? Shouldn’t he immediately go to bring Young Madam back?
However, after a brief pause, Shi Che acted as if he hadn’t heard anything, lifted his leg, and headed straight upstairs. Xiao Zhao was stunned for a moment before he instinctively asked, "President Shi, do we need to go pick up Young Madam?"
Upon hearing Xiao Zhao’s question, Shi Che paused in his step. His handsome face was expressionless, his voice low, and when he spoke, there was a slight harshness to it, "No need, let her go wherever she pleases."
