Chapter 290 - 279: Return (Second Update)
After staying at the siheyuan for two days, Qin Xi drove them back to the university after dinner on Sunday, then had to leave for other business.
Qin Xi was feeling rather restless. On Saturday morning, news came from Su Yan’s side that Shen Yuehong had gone missing.
After two days without any news, Qin Xi was somewhat concerned. Not for Shen Yuehong’s safety; he was worried that if Shen Yuehong was captured by someone with ill intentions and interrogated about his dreams, it would be troublesome. What if someone truly believed those dreams and exploited them?
By the next day’s classes, neither Qin Xi nor Su Yan’s associates had found Shen Yuehong. Even the people left by Li Huan had been mobilized, but still no trace. It was unthinkable that a living person could just vanish into thin air.
Meanwhile, Iro called them on Monday noon to check in and let them know that she had informed her elder brother about her current location and plans.
Lu Anna felt helpless about Iro’s recklessness; a woman could do anything for love, and she understood Iro’s feelings.
Iro’s family background was different from the Lu Family. They hoped to climb the social ladder. The family’s eldest son had already been arranged in a marriage, and there was nothing more to say for Iro, as even Ai Xin had been settled with a marriage set for New Year’s Day.
While Li Xianglu was marvelling at Iro’s boldness, a call came from home, from Su Yan.
The news conveyed was so shocking that Li Xianglu was at a loss for words for quite a while.
It was Li Jianqing who had called home. Since Li Xianglu was surely not there, Li Jianqing didn’t have the time to wait and thus relayed the entire situation to Su Yan to pass onto Li Xianglu.
The so-called boyfriend Iro was seeking turned out to be Li Jianqing.
However, the message from Li Jianqing wasn’t about that. Despite his explicit rejections, she kept writing him letters, sending items, mailing watches he never wore once, scarves, and so on.
