Chapter 262 - 262 262 Meng Xue'er Goes Missing

262: Chapter 262 Meng Xue’er Goes Missing 262: Chapter 262 Meng Xue’er Goes Missing Mu Group’s location, Moongaze Building, first floor.

“Are you saying that after Xue’er took a call and went out, she hasn’t come back at all?”

Having rubbed up against his President wife’s BMW car and arrived at the company, Lin Fei had planned to find Shen Peini or Ling Weiwei, those two beautiful department heads, to connect and bond with.

However, due to the shares investment in Meishilin restaurant, both women had been called away to a meeting by Mu Shanshan.

Returning to his own office, Xiao Yina, that enchanting secretary, had also run off to the General Affairs Department to work in coordination with a bunch of female staff there.

Bored alone in his office, Lin Fei simply started to inspect the security work for which he was responsible, from the first to the fifteenth floor of the Moongaze Building.

This inspection truly turned up an issue.

Meng Xue’er was missing.

“It’s indeed the case.

At first, we didn’t take it seriously.

But after waiting for half a day without seeing Xue’er return, we tried calling her, only her phone couldn’t get through.”

Two receptionists from Mu Group on duty explained to Lin Fei with a slight anxiety.

Lin Fei’s face slightly chilled, he asked with a grave voice, “In these past few days, has there been anything unusual with Xue’er at the company?”

The two receptionists from Mu Group on duty exchanged glances, shook their heads in succession, indicating to Lin Fei that there had been nothing amiss with Meng Xue’er at the company in the recent days.

The fact was indeed so.

Although Meng Xue’er had joined Mu Group not so long ago and could be considered a complete newcomer, she obviously would not receive any unfair treatment within Mu Group, under the influence of Lin Fei’s reputation.

Not just Lin Fei, but Mu Shanshan, who paid extra attention to Meng Xue’er because of her cheapo husband Lin Fei, had also specially put in a word for Meng Xue’er in the Public Relations Department after understanding her character and nature.

With the aggressive department head Lin Fei and the icy President Mu Shanshan’s double protection, it was clear that nobody inside Mu Group would dare to unfairly bully Meng Xue’er.

And Meng Xue’er’s pure and gentle nature had indeed made many within Mu Group take a liking to her.

Adding to the denial of these two duty receptionists, Lin Fei could basically conclude that Meng Xue’er’s sudden disappearance wasn’t due to any unfair treatment within Mu Group.

At this thought, Lin Fei took out his phone and called Meng Xue’er’s uncle, Old Wang.

“Lin, I heard from Xue’er that you’re now a big leader in the company.

Why the sudden call?

It wouldn’t be that Xue’er has gotten into some trouble, would it?”

“Uncle Wang, where did your thoughts wander to?

Xue’er is fine, I was just talking to her.

It’s just that, seeing Xue’er reminded me I haven’t been to eat at your place in a while.

So, Xue’er and I discussed it, and decided to come over after work today.

It’s just that I’m unsure if you have the time, Uncle Wang.”

“I do, why wouldn’t I?

Your aunt and I would be thrilled to have you over.

Lin, let’s make it a date, be sure to bring Xue’er with you after work today.”

After exchanging a few more pleasantries with Old Wang and confirming that Meng Xue’er had not gone to see him, Lin Fei hung up the call.

“I’m going out to look for her now.

If Xue’er comes back, remind her to give me a call,” he instructed the two receptionists, then turned to go upstairs.

Even though he hadn’t known Meng Xue’er for very long, and their exchanges weren’t that extensive, Meng Xue’er’s pure and delicate appearance had already unwittingly imprinted itself into Lin Fei’s mind.

Lin Fei had a sincere fondness for Meng Xue’er.

Unlike ordinary girls, Xue’er was so pure she was like a spotless Bai He, completely unaware of the dark side of society.

She was the kind of naive girl who could be sold off by someone and would help count the money.

With such innocence and now mysteriously vanished, how could Lin Fei not worry.

…

In the underground parking of Moongaze Building, Lin Fei, having taken the car keys from his President wife, drove Mu Shanshan’s BMW 7 Series straight out of Moongaze Building like an arrow off its string.

Concerned about Meng Xue’er, Lin Fei could not care less for anything else.

He sped along the road and, in just over ten minutes, hurried to the two-bedroom rental where he had stayed upon his initial return to Zhonghai.

After getting out of the car and upstairs, Lin Fei, who had long forgotten where he had tossed the keys to the rental, carefully eyed the apartment window and quickly scaled up the warm water pipe to the balcony.

Lin Fei had to admit, Meng Xue’er, as soft as she might seem, had a true knack for housekeeping.

Be it Ning Qi or Meng Xue’er, whether seen often or rarely, after all, they were both acquaintances.

It was indeed the fact, although Lin, the great officer, was admittedly a latecomer climbing through a window.

Yet, if it really came down to it, it was Ning Qi who would be considered an intruder without cause.

“Xue’er is missing, I came back to see if she’s at home.

If you know—”

Before Lin Fei could finish, Ning Qi’s expression changed abruptly, she seized Lin Fei firmly, and exclaimed, “What are you saying, Xue’er is missing?!”

Obviously, Ning Qi’s interjection revealed to Lin Fei that she was also unaware of Meng Xue’er’s whereabouts…
