Mr.CEO’s Ex-wife Escapes Again
Chapter 214 - 214 214 Fulfill Her

Chapter 214: Chapter 214 Fulfill Her Chapter 214: Chapter 214 Fulfill Her “Son, didn’t you say the household registration book would be ready today? I’ve brought Xiaorou over, you two should go get your marriage certificate first.”

As soon as the old lady arrived, she didn’t beat around the bush and directly stated her purpose to Sheng Siyuan.

Jian Rou, standing by her side, blushed so much that she dared not lift her head.

But Sheng Siyuan just glanced at them indifferently.

“I need to meet with a major client right now; the certificate can wait.”

“It can wait?”

The old lady was immediately displeased upon hearing this.

“How can it wait? I’ve already arranged Xiaorou’s wedding dress and jewelry, and the banquet hall is booked. The guests have been notified; how can you say it’s not urgent?”

“Cousin, I… I’ve also told my dad, and my mom has informed our relatives there, and everything is ready.”

Jian Rou also spoke up shyly and timidly from the side.

Hearing this, the man finally knitted his brows, his handsome face etched with a serious expression as he considered the matter.

“But this client is placing an order worth hundreds of millions.”

“…Hundreds of millions?”

“Yes. How about this, the wedding can still go ahead as planned, and as for the certificate, we can take care of it once I’m less busy.”

He finally provided an answer, his tone was gentle, and he seemed to be sincerely considering the issue.

The old lady heard this and was about to argue again.

However, Jian Rou, seeing this, didn’t want to cause further complications and quickly pulled her aunt aside.

“Okay, let’s do as cousin says. After all, once we have the ceremony in front of everyone, I will be your… wife. There’s no rush for the rest.”

She even took it upon herself to speak for the man.

Sheng Siyuan nodded his head, showing his satisfaction, and then he stepped out of the living room to go to work.

Seeing this, the old lady could only let the matter drop.

Nevertheless, after they returned, they continued to prepare on a grand scale.

By the day of the wedding, nearly the whole of Jiangbei knew that the President of Shengshi Group was about to have a wedding.

“President, the wedding is tomorrow and there’s still no news from the misses… Should I go look for her?”

The night before the wedding, Xu Guannan came into the study to find the man still busy with work.

He couldn’t help but take the initiative to ask.

As his words fell, there were more than ten seconds of silence in the study, save for the sound of the man still steadily typing on the keyboard.

The air was devoid of any other sound.

Xu Guannan: “…”

“No need.”

Finally, after processing the last email, the man closed his computer and responded to the question.

“This is her last chance, and mine too. If she doesn’t show up, there’s no need to wait any further.”

He stood up and walked over to the bar to pour himself a glass of red wine, his demeanor utterly calm.

Even, one could say, indifferent.

Xu Guannan was stunned.

A grand scheme so meticulously planned, and to think his expectations for that woman were so bland?

What if she really didn’t show up?

Would he then marry that woman named Jian Rou?

Xu Guannan was so shocked it took him a long while to recover, only snapping back to reality when the man indicated he was going to rest, prompting Xu to leave the study.

It wasn’t okay, this person was so passive; as his assistant, he still had to do something about it.

He drove his car away from Shengfei Bay.

But that night, he looked for Yin Beixiao and even the lawyer from H country who had once helped them with a lawsuit in M country.

No one knew Yin Hehe’s whereabouts.

“Lawyer Lan hasn’t contacted me for a long time, and I don’t know where she went. I had even seen that her MSN account was canceled.”

“What did you say? Account canceled?”

Late at night, Xu Guannan finally got a bit of a clue from this lawyer.

MSN, it’s a foreign social media account.

For famous lawyers like Lan Yi, their account is extremely important, as clients use it to find her.

But she had actually cancelled it!

“Yes, but then I thought about it, and maybe since our Landun had disbanded, she no longer saw the need to keep her account,”

Yi Hao speculated in return.

Xu Guannan pondered for a long while before asking, “What about the others? Did they cancel theirs as well?”

“No, they still need it to make a living, how could they cancel it?”

Yi Hao blurted out.

It was this very comment that brought the matter back to a point of contention.

If everyone else needed it to make a living, why then would Yin Hehe cancel her account? Wasn’t that illogical?

Xu Guannan hung up the phone.

Just as he was about to contact a few other Landun lawyers to ask around, someone called him on his phone.

“Captain Xu, this is Jian Rou, I’m sorry to disturb you so late, but there’s something I’d like to ask you.”

It turned out to be the leading lady who was getting married tomorrow—Miss Jian Rou of the Jian Family.

Xu Guannan could only deal with this woman first.

“No problem, Miss Jian, please feel free to speak.”

“It’s like this, I wanted to ask… Hasn’t our CEO’s household registration booklet really not been sorted out yet?”

Jian Rou stuttered as she asked her question.

As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Guannan was taken aback.

He had not been the one to handle the household registration booklet, so he was completely unaware of this issue.

“I’m sorry Miss Jian, did the CEO tell you his booklet wasn’t ready yet?”

“Yes, he said he took it to cancel his ex-wife’s registration, but half a month has passed. Today, when I went to get our marriage certificate, he still didn’t agree, merely saying… he had to go on a business trip.”

This woman was indeed clever.

Although she had grabbed hold of the old lady during the day, deep down in her heart, she had always been worried about this issue. Unable handle it any longer, she called Xu Guannan, her close assistant, late at night.

Xu Guannan went silent.

Cancelling registration taking half a month was unheard of to him.

He hung up the phone.

Very soon, he was driving away from Shengfei Bay in the dead of night, headed straight for the residence of Chen Xiaosen, the CEO’s secretary in the downtown area.

This issue, since it wasn’t him who dealt with it, must then have been handled by this man.

Xu Guannan found Chen Xiaosen, and by this time, it was already the early hours of the morning, just ten hours away from the wedding ceremony.

“Xu Bro, you finally know about this matter. Yes, indeed I took the household registration booklet on a pretext, but I did it in order to find our lady,”

As expected, upon finding Chen Xiaosen, he delivered the news Xu Guannan most wanted to hear.

Xu Guannan’s eyes instantly lit up.

“Then, did you find her?”

“No!” Unfortunately, Chen Xiaosen still shook his head.

“Caicai and her team got our lady’s fingerprints, but for so long, they have not found any information on her. Now they’re suspecting that in order to hide herself completely, she even destroyed her own fingerprints!”

Chen Xiaosen said, not without disappointment.

To go as far as destroying her own fingerprints.

It was almost certain that there was little hope for the woman’s return; what kind of resolute heart must she have to make such a terrifying decision?

Xu Guannan was deeply disappointed.

He drove back to Shengfei Bay slowly, and just as he walked through the door, a sliver of dawn’s pale light broke across the sky.

Day had broken.

And the wedding… was about to begin.
