Chapter 684: Chapter 684 Xiaoyuan is a Predictor
"Yaoguang, I’ll be on a business trip tomorrow,"
Quan Jinbei had someone help pack his luggage and took the opportunity to report his itinerary to Shi Yaoguang.
It had become a habit for Quan Jinbei and Shi Yaoguang to share their schedules since they talked it over.
Whenever Shi Yaoguang had any plans, she would also tell Quan Jinbei.
Shi Yaoguang didn’t take his business trip to heart; for a busy CEO, it was just part of the routine.
Even before, Quan Jinbei had been very busy.
The only difference was that back then, Quan Jinbei didn’t need to personally oversee the company.
Now, the persona Heavenly Dao had set for him was that of a hands-on, domineering CEO.
That is to say, he hadn’t thought of an alternative method before his memory returned.
After saying so the previous night, Quan Jinbei left early the next morning.
Today, Shi Yaoguang also happened to have work.
After a busy morning, Shi Yaoguang took out her phone but didn’t see any messages, which puzzled her.
"Have you arrived at your destination?"
She sent a message.
When the half-hour break ended, there was still no message from Quan Jinbei.
That’s when Shi Yaoguang started to worry.
On second thought, it seemed that Quan Jinbei’s memory had been tampered with through hypnosis during his last business trip.
At this realization, Shi Yaoguang could no longer sit still.
What if he encountered the same problem on this trip? Wouldn’t that be terrible?
With Heavenly Dao sunk into slumber, the problem Shi Yaoguang worried about naturally wouldn’t occur.
The issue she worried about wouldn’t happen, but other troubles would...
Of course, at that moment, she didn’t have the ability to foresee the future and was unaware of the magnitude of the trouble Quan Jinbei’s trip would bring back.
Knowing Quan Jinbei’s memory had issues the last time he went on a business trip, Shi Yaoguang couldn’t just stand by and do nothing.
Taking advantage of the break, she asked the director for leave.
The director, realizing she had a good reason, agreed to let her leave.
On the nanny van, the assistant Xiaoyuan couldn’t help asking, "Sis, are you in such a hurry to ask for leave because something happened?"
Shi Yaoguang hummed in response, "Quan Jinbei might be in trouble."
"Mr. Quan?"
Xiaoyuan’s expression clearly showed her concern.
Even though Xiaoyuan didn’t know that Quan Jinbei’s memory had been hypnotized, she could still sense that something was off about him.
As a result, her face suddenly took on a look of worry.
Initially, Shi Yaoguang hadn’t noticed her, but when she clearly saw her expression, she couldn’t help but ask in confusion, "Xiaoyuan, what’s with that face?"
Xiaoyuan’s round face was almost crinkling like a bun.
"I, I’m just a bit worried..." Xiaoyuan hesitated, appearing uncertain about whether to speak her mind.
Shi Yaoguang then said, "You can tell me directly what you’re worried about."
Biting her lip, Xiaoyuan couldn’t bear to keep her in the dark and reluctantly shared her speculation: "Mr. Quan returned from his last business trip as if he had become a different person."
"Though I know it’s not good to make wild guesses, there’s clearly something off with Mr. Quan’s attitude... I don’t want to doubt anything, but there are a lot of cases like this..."
"When men get money, they turn bad... Although Mr. Quan has always been very wealthy, he used to have poor health and even if he wanted to do anything, he was not physically capable, but now it’s different."
"He has finally recovered, and perhaps someone deliberately tried to lead him astray on the trip! The more she spoke, the more she felt her thoughts were justified."
Hearing Xiaoyuan’s analysis, Shi Yaoguang thought it made sense.
However, what made sense to her and to Xiaoyuan were not the same thing.
Looking at Xiaoyuan, she cleared her throat and said, "I trust my husband’s character. He’s not that kind of lascivious ghost, and even if he encountered any problems during his trip, he wouldn’t bring back a woman."
Shi Yaoguang spoke with certainty, unaware that flags were meant to be toppled.
Xiaoyuan still looked worried, but seeing Shi Yaoguang’s expression, she felt it was inappropriate to say more.
What if it was all just a misunderstanding on her part?
Shi Yaoguang didn’t continue the discussion, knowing that no matter what she said, it was useless; Xiaoyuan had to see it for herself.
...
X Country.
Quan Jinbei had indeed encountered a problem.
There was an issue with the raw materials at the subsidiary in X Country. It was not yet clear which stage of the process had the oversight.
Quan Jinbei came over to investigate this matter.
However, as soon as he got off the plane, he was taken away for a chat.
The reason was that the materials he brought contained certain contraband items.
Of course, this couldn’t be possible, but the X Country police had already obtained solid evidence.
Even though Quan Jinbei was a bigshot in X Country, he still had to follow the rules of their country.
Otherwise, making a scene would only make things more difficult to settle.
Since he was taken away before he could leave the airport and his phone was temporarily confiscated, he couldn’t contact Shi Yaoguang.
Shi Yaoguang drove the nanny car directly to the airport and, after telling Xiaoyuan to go back first, she boarded a plane herself.
Xiaoyuan couldn’t help but worry, fearing that Shi Yaoguang, who left on her own this time, might come back as a party of three.
Xiaoyuan was an avid fan of novels.
Things like a domineering CEO not loving his arranged marriage wife, but instead falling for an innocent, unpretentious young girl who in reality is a white lotus green tea bitch.
Xiaoyuan had worried more than once that Shi Yaoguang would become that unloved wife from an arranged marriage.
Afterward.
Xiaoyuan felt that she shouldn’t be an assistant.
Being an assistant was simply a waste of her talents.
She should become a prophet.
...
Shi Yaoguang did not travel abroad on a whim to find someone.
Before going abroad, she had already contacted the person in charge of X Country.
Although she wasn’t responsible for business matters, her identity granted her channels to obtain whatever information she wanted.
Knowing that Quan Jinbei hadn’t gone to the subsidiary after going abroad, Shi Yaoguang grew even more worried.
Of course, she wasn’t worried about what Xiaoyuan guessed, that Quan Jinbei would change for the worse once he got better.
What concerned her was that Quan Jinbei had encountered some kind of danger in X Country.
X Country was not a peaceful land.
Here, it was legal for people to carry guns.
Fortunately, during the time she disembarked from the plane, she hadn’t heard about any shootings or homicides near the airport.
And a plane crash was even less likely.
After ruling out various possibilities, Shi Yaoguang was certain that Quan Jinbei must have been taken away at the airport.
Thinking of this, she urgently wanted to know who had taken Quan Jinbei and where they had taken him.
A strong wish flashed certain fragmented images before her mind’s eye.
She instinctively looked for a computer.
Her fingers rested on the keyboard, as if they had a consciousness of their own.
The tips tapped continuously, and characters leaped across the black screen one by one.
Soon enough, the airport’s surveillance footage appeared on the computer in front of her.
Truth be told, she hadn’t thought she was capable of hacking into the airport’s surveillance system.
But now wasn’t the time to wonder why she suddenly had hacking skills. The urgent task was to find out Quan Jinbei’s whereabouts.
She kept dragging the progress bar of the surveillance footage, and finally, she found Quan Jinbei’s figure.
Just as she had expected.
Quan Jinbei was indeed taken away at the airport.
The people taking him away seemed to have shown some identification before doing so.
Shi Yaoguang enlarged the image, and after clearing seeing the content on the identification, she frowned involuntarily.
Why would Quan Jinbei get into trouble with the customs over there...
