Heads-up! The CEO's Wife is a Hidden Big Boss! novel Chapter 832

Chapter 832: Chaos in the Capital

Editor: Atlas Studios

Lu Chengzhou found the cab Gu Mang had taken earlier.

The driver was a middle-aged man who had never been in such a serious situation before and was thus quaking with fear. A layer of sweat broke out on his back as he looked at the black clothed men surrounding his cab. He shrunk back against his seat as he stuttered, "M-May I know... w-what’s the matter...?"

I’m a law-abiding citizen who has never offended anyone...

Gone was Lu Chengzhou’s usual languorous demeanor, which was replaced with pure iciness. He had a hand in his pocket and when he spoke his voice was so frigid that it gave others the chills. "Earlier, a pretty lady wearing a cap and black sweater hailed your cab near the Yu Group’s private hospital. Where did she get off at?"

The driver usually enjoyed chatting with his passengers and most of the time the passengers kept up the conversation with him as well. Only Gu Mang had kept her head down silently throughout the journey, so he knew exactly who Lu Chengzhou was talking about. He hurriedly said, "I dropped her off at the North Shore District and she left right away. Whatever happened to her has nothing to do with me. I’m a law-abiding citizen..."

North Shore District was merely four streets away from the Yu Group’s private hospital. It was where Gu Mang used to stay when she went to the Yu Group’s private hospital to conduct surgeries every month.

Lu Chengzhou did not continue listening to the driver. Instead, he turned around and got into his own car. "Go to the North Shore District."

"Understood."

As the driver watched Lu Chengzhou and his entourage drive off toward the North Shore District, he raised his hand and wiped the sweat off his face.

On the journey there, Lu Chengzhou tried calling Gu Mang. However, he was told that the caller was not in the service area. He was just about to make another call when suddenly he received a call from Gu Si. Wrinkling his eyebrows, he answered the call and asked in a measured tone, "What’s up?"

"Erm, is my sis busy right now?" asked Gu Si.

Lu Chengzhou’s eyes darkened, but he calmly returned the question with another. "Why are you asking that? Did she ask you to look for me?"

"No. I was talking on the phone with her, but she hung up on me," replied Gu Si carelessly. "I thought she was busy, so I wanted—"

"She contacted you?" Lu Chengzhou sat straight up in his seat when he heard what Gu Si said.

"...What’s with that question? Is it so strange that my sister contacted me?" retorted Gu Si. Tsk, he makes it sound as if she doesn’t care about me at all.

Lu Chengzhou controlled his emotions as he tried to maintain his compsure. "Did she say where she is?"

The phone went silent for a second. When Gu Si finally spoke, his voice was cold. "What do you mean by that? Did my sister go missing on Jijing Island?"

"We’re back in the capital, but something happened. I can’t find her now," replied Lu Chengzhou succinctly.

Gu Si heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that. "She didn’t tell me where she was. Just keep looking for her while I give Brother Yufeng and the others a call to ask them to look for her at her usual haunts." 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Neither of them asked each other about the specifics. They thought that it was best to find Gu Mang first.

...

After ending the call, Gu Mang looked at Song Xian. "Master, where did you get the blood samples for your research?"

By now, Song Xian had realized that both Gu Mang and Gu Si suffered from some sort of a health problem and had to rely on medicine. But the thing was, the blood samples used in their research did not belong to either of the siblings. Didn’t Lu Chengzhou say that Gu Mang had a health problem? Why aren’t we using her blood then?

Although Song Xian still appeared a little dazed, he did not stay silent this time. "The blood samples were delivered to us by Lu Yī and the others. I don’t know who they came from."

The first person that came to Gu Mang’s mind was Lu Chengzhou. Ye family... Ye Junci is Lu Chengzhou’s mother.

She then made another call, which connected pretty quickly. "Send me Ye Junci’s contact number."

That was all she said before ending the call. She then put her phone away, stood up to walk over to her motorcycle, and picked up her helmet. "Master, don’t tell Lu Chengzhou that I came to see you."

"Where are you going?" Song Xian stood up anxiously. He was very worried that she might do something reckless in her current emotional state.
