Dressed as a Man, I Became Tycoon's Sweetheart novel Chapter 849

Chapter 849: Chapter 850: Ye Xian, Long Time No See

"Where are mom and Aunt Tao?"

Ye Shaowen: "They went to the suburb early in the morning to shop for ingredients, said they’re making hot pot for dinner tonight. You think everyone’s as lazy as you, sleeping until nine o’clock."

"Oh~"

Ye Xian washed her face and looked over at the breakfast he made, "Second Brother’s cooking is amazing, but I overslept today and need to rush to work, can’t stay for breakfast!"

"No way!"

"No way."

Both Ye Shaowen’s and Ye Juncheng’s voices chimed in.

Ye Xian: "..."

Ye Juncheng: "No matter how busy work is, you need to have breakfast on time, or it’s bad for your health."

Ye Shaowen: "Exactly, and I got up early to make it for you. Are you not appreciative at all?"

So, under the watchful eyes of her two brothers, Ye Xian obediently finished her breakfast and, like a child, had her mouth wiped by the adults before she was allowed to leave.

Ye Xian shook her head, both amused and helpless. Did her brothers see her as only three and a half years old?

The nanny car had been waiting outside the villa for a long time. As soon as she got in, Ye Xian instinctively called out for Xiao Lu, but to her surprise, no one answered. Only the driver and the four bodyguards in the back seat were there.

"Mr. Ye, good morning!"

"Where’s Xiao Lu?"

"Xiao Lu..."

The four looked at each other and shook their heads, "We haven’t seen her this morning. Maybe she went to the event venue early?"

Went ahead?

That’s impossible. Xiao Lu always comes along with her in the car, reporting the schedule and heading to the event together.

Thinking of this, she picked up her phone and dialed Zhou Lu’s number. It rang for a long time without being answered, and instead, Jiang Wen called, "Hello, Ye Xian? Haven’t you arrived at the event venue yet? The organizers are rushing me."

"I’m on my way. By the way, Brother Jiang, did Xiao Lu go to the company today?"

"Xiao Lu, no, she’s not with you?"

"It’s nothing."

Ye Xian ended the call, thinking of Zhou Lu living alone in Jiayuan District, what if something happened...

"Li Feng, go check on Xiao Lu’s house. We’ll head to the event first, and if you find Xiao Lu, let me know."

"Got it!"

The car reached the event site without seeing any trace of Zhou Lu, and there was no news from Li Feng. Ye Xian began to fret, her mind not entirely on the commercial shoot. After finishing the first take, Li Feng called, "Mr. Ye, no one is at Xiao Lu’s home. The property manager said she went to work as usual in the morning but hasn’t come back since."

Hasn’t come back, could something have happened on the way?

Ye Xian started to panic but didn’t have time to think before a call came in, showing: Xiao Lu

She immediately felt relieved and answered, "Xiao Lu, where did you go? I was worried sick not seeing you this morning, I thought something happened to you..."

A young man’s clear voice, with a slight tension, came through, inexplicably pleasant and charming. It was a long-lost feeling, hearing his voice still so captivating, even Cheng Zidong’s usual fierce tone softened, "Ye Xian, long time no see."

Cheng Zidong’s eyes lit up. He didn’t expect Luo Yuwei to be truthful; Ye Xian was really loyal, even willing to go this far for a little assistant. But if he outright stated his desire for her, she probably wouldn’t come, right?

At the chilly cliff pavilion, Cheng Zidong looked down at the perilous, winding mountain road of the Tartaros Race Track, snuffing out his cigarette, "Tartaros Race Track, starting point 13. Your assistant and I will be waiting for you here."

Tartaros Race Track?

Isn’t that the infamous ’Purgatory on Earth’ crash death zone?

He...

Ye Xian suddenly remembered who he was, Cheng Zidong, the man she met at the F1 circuit after being ’banned,’ covered in unruly tattoos, not a good person. Why did he kidnap Xiao Lu? Was he unsatisfied losing to her last time and wanted to race again?

The Tartaros natural track is incredibly dangerous, the ultimate challenge location for death-defying racers, where a slight misstep could lead to death. If she doesn’t go, Xiao Lu...

In a flash, Bo Tingshen’s words passed through Ye Xian’s mind: "Call me the moment you’re in danger."

"Alright, don’t touch Xiao Lu, I’m on my way."

"Great, but..." Cheng Zidong glanced at Zhou Lu, pulling out the cloth from her mouth, "You must not call the police, nor bring any bodyguards or anyone else, or else, I’ll push your little assistant off the cliff!"

"Ahhhh help, no!"

Zhou Lu looked at the unfathomable abyss below, and the fear made her burst into tears and snot, Ye Xian heard her desperate cries, and her mind went blank, unable to process anything, "Alright, alright, I promise I won’t bring anyone. Just don’t hurt Xiao Lu, I’ll be there soon!"

Ending the call, Ye Xian looked at the first name in her contact list, steeled herself, and put the phone away.

Xiao Lu is still so young, she can’t gamble with her life.

To avoid the bodyguards, Ye Xian pretended to go to the restroom, then took a taxi to the Tartaros Race Track.
