Mr.CEO’s Ex-wife Escapes Again
Chapter 217 - 217 217 He Completely Panicked

Chapter 217: Chapter 217: He Completely Panicked… Chapter 217: Chapter 217: He Completely Panicked… M Country.

When Sheng Siyuan arrived here on a private jet, it was already the wee hours of the morning.

Yet even at this hour, Shengshi Group had already brought over local military representatives.

“Mr. Sheng, I am pleased to meet you again,” said the officer, adorned with two stars on his shoulder, rising to greet Sheng Siyuan promptly upon his arrival.

This rank was significantly higher than that of the Major implicated in the smuggling collusion last time.

Sheng Siyuan extended his hand, “General, I am also happy to see you. I’ve asked you here because I could use your help with something.”

“Please, Mr. Sheng, speak,” the General responded cordially.

After all, the last military scandal was not disclosed by this Asian business tycoon, sparing them from a potentially disastrous situation.

Seeing this, Sheng Siyuan got straight to the point.

“My wife has disappeared.”

“Your wife?” the General was taken aback.

“This… I’ve never heard anything about Mrs. Sheng. Could it be… Mr. Sheng, are you looking to enlist our help in finding her?” he asked, confused after his initial shock.

Unexpectedly, the seated man quickly produced a photograph from his person.

“No, actually you know her. She is the chief lawyer of Landun who resolved the traitor issue for you last time—Lan Yi!”

“…”

The General, staring at the photo in his hands, was dumbstruck!

Lan Yi, the famous wife of Shengshi Group? How could that be possible?

Knowing the name for so long, he had never once heard of her having another identity that was so explosive.

It took the General a while to digest the information.

“Mr. Sheng, are you joking? How could Mrs. Lan be your wife? To be frank, someone with significant power among us has hired her for legal affairs, and we are quite familiar with her, but we have never heard her mention such an identity,” he said.

“…”

The question dimmed the gaze of the man before him even further.

“We… had a misunderstanding, but I assure you, General, she is indeed my wife. Therefore, I must implore you to aid me in finding her!” he begged in a tone lower than he had ever used with anyone before.

The General was visibly moved upon hearing this.

“Alright, Mr. Sheng, please tell me what you need. If it’s within my power, I will spare no effort,” he promised.

“Thank you!”

Sheng Siyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Some ten minutes later, the General provided a complete list and details of all the military personnel involved in the rebellion.

“Mr. Sheng, most of the individuals listed here have been executed by us, but this Henry managed to escape from prison,” the General confessed somewhat guiltily while handing over the list.

Sheng Siyuan immediately looked up at him, “Henry? Isn’t that the mastermind behind those scoundrels?”

His expression turned steel blue.

So it was that the biggest fish had slipped the net, which explained why the bounty on the black market for that woman was so high.

“General, how did you let this happen? He was the top criminal, and you let him get away?” Sheng Siyuan demanded furiously.

“I am very sorry, Mr. Sheng,” the General said, his face full of shame.

“Henry has always held important positions in the military. Over the years, he has drawn many to his side. When we learned of this, it was too late to investigate, so when he was captured, those people colluded from within and without to rescue him,” explained the General.

“Shit!” Sheng Siyuan cursed on the spot.

If this man had escaped, there was no doubt that the chance of Yin Hehe falling into his hands was 90%.

He closed his eyes, instantly recalling the bloody and violent scene he had witnessed at Gala Port.

He shuddered even thinking about it.

He was right; that man was a beast, and he had nearly cut open Yin Hehe’s head if Sheng Siyuan had been just a few seconds later.

“Mr. Sheng, I am truly sorry. To make amends, let me offer you this: Should you encounter any danger while searching for your wife, you may call upon our military forces at will,” the General said, seeing Sheng Siyuan so emotionally charged.

The general, overwhelmed with guilt, immediately produced a ring symbolizing his identity right then and there.

Only then did Sheng Siyuan slowly open his eyes again.

For a moment, he stared at the ring before taking it and stuffing it into his pocket.

That evening, a global search order, amounting to a staggering trillion, was issued from this Asian business tycoon’s mouth. Within mere minutes, the shockwave rippled through the underworld and the legitimate paths alike, resembling a level-ten tsunami.

It was a trillion!

Xu Guannan was also stunned.

But such a huge investment yielded quick results, and by dawn, they had received news in the building.

“President, this Henry has been found. He’s hiding in the territory of the Tulan Society in Southeast Asia, so we can be sure that Madame has been handed over to the Tulan Society.”

Xu Guannan passed over a photo, carefully standing before this man.

The thing they feared the most had ultimately still occurred.

Sheng Siyuan tipped his head back and slightly closed his eyes. At that moment, as regret seeped into his heart, his entire expression, under the dim light inside the room, turned a shade of pallid grey, while his thin lips had started to turn a bit purple.

This was all his doing.

He knew full well that once she left his side, she would face immense danger.

Yet, he still let her go.

“President, are you… alright? Now that we’ve found Madame’s whereabouts, we can just go and bring her back. Please, don’t panic!”

Xu Guannan noticed something was wrong with him.

He immediately became anxious, quickly retrieving the bottle of medicine from the drawer and handing two pills to the man.

Fortunately, he took the advice.

He took the pills into his mouth, and after a short while, he recovered and stood up from his chair.

“Let’s go!”

“Yes…”

—

Southeast Asia.

This is a tropical climate region.

Thus, even though it is already winter back home, the weather here is still scorching hot, oppressively so, making it hard to breathe.

Yin Hehe was currently locked in a room and feeling the same way.

“Bang, bang, bang!”

Unable to take it anymore, she began pounding on the door forcefully.

“What now?” After a while, footsteps approached from outside and a woman asked impatiently.

Yin Hehe quickly said inside the room, “I’m very thirsty, bring me some water.”

“Want water?”

To her surprise, after hearing this, the person outside let out a cold laugh.

“Sure, you can have water, but only if you agree to marry Director Ang’s son, as your father wishes. Not only will you get to drink water, but I can also let you out.”

The woman outside spoke venomously.

Indeed, the place where Yin Hehe was being kept was actually Lan Yi’s true home, and the Director Ang referred to by the woman outside was the powerful official whose son Lan Yi had fled from marrying years ago.

Five years had passed, and yet this family hadn’t given up on Lan Yi.

Yin Hehe stopped knocking on the door.

This situation, which she had encountered nearly every day since being captured over a month ago, was these people continually tormenting her to break her will, to imprison her.

But thankfully, she had made a name for herself in the legal arena under Lan Yi’s identity.

So Lan Yi’s father, who was also the boss of the Tulan Society, Lan Cuo, thought she was useful and did not harbor a killing intent towards her.

Otherwise, she would have already disappeared from this world by now.

Yin Hehe forced herself to try to sleep.

If she slept, she would forget about being thirsty.

But just then, the sound of high heels clicking approached from outside.

“What’s the matter? Is the Third Miss not complying again?”

“Yes, this wench is still stubborn, refusing to agree to marry the idiot. Miss Lin, do you have any other methods?”

The woman who had just insulted Yin Hehe immediately greeted the newcomer with a very warm tone.

Yin Hehe, upon hearing this, instantly opened her eyes!
