Chapter 198: Chapter 198: Came Up Empty (Fifth Update)
"I want to see Zhu Qianying." Yan Han retracted his ignored hand, to be honest, he didn’t want to shake hands with this man either.
He also didn’t feel like adhering to this fake, hypocritical charade.
Cheng Ye gave him a casual glance, "Then go see her, what does it have to do with me?"
Saying this, he moved past Yan Han intending to return to his office.
Yan Han confidently took a step forward, flanking him. In the end, Yan Han closely followed Cheng Ye into his office.
"Where is Zhu Qianying?"
The data that Ke Kai gave Yan Han showed that Zhu Qianying and Chen Jing were living with their son in another city. However, when she was working, she would mostly stay in a nearby hotel to the headquarters.
Cheng Ye took a seat behind his office desk, "Mr. Yan, didn’t the receptionist tell you? Ying Zi is on vacation, so, where she is, I don’t know, and have no right to inquire."
Yan Han didn’t believe Cheng Ye’s words.
Although, there was nothing on those documents which indicated any relationship between Cheng Ye and Zhu Qianying from beginning to end.
But Yan Han’s intuition told him, this Cheng Ye, has a deep connection with Zhu Qianying.
Moreover, Yan Han remembered clearly, the night he first saw his son, when he hinted at whether the uncle was mommy’s boyfriend, the little boy’s answer was, "I don’t know if he is or not, but he likes mommy a lot!"
That is to say, he might not be her boyfriend, but he definitely has ill intentions towards Zhu Qianying.
"Mr. Cheng, although my request is somewhat unreasonable, can I look at her vacation records?"
Yan Han was quite sure that Cheng Ye would never agree to it since Ying Jewelry had a new product launch recently and they were so busy. As Zhu Qianying is a chief designer, how could she possibly be on vacation during this time.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Ye turned on his computer, indicating for Yan Han to come see, "Mr. Yan, this is Ying Zi’s vacation application."
Yan Han got up, leaned over to check closely, indeed, it was a vacation request sent from Zhu-Ying’s email to Ying Jewelry’s HR department.
The application was four days ago.
So, she started her leave just a few days after sending their son back to him?
Could it be that she is sick? Or has she run into some trouble?
It wasn’t until this moment that Yan Han remembered this fact.
His mind was addled by the search for Zhu Qianying which completely drove that thought from his mind. How could Zhu Qianying suddenly hand over their son to him for no reason at all?
There must be a compelling reason for her to make such a decision.
"Mr. Cheng, is Ying Zi in some kind of trouble? Or is she sick?"
At this moment, Yan Han had forgotten his hostility towards Cheng Ye, all he wanted was to know all about Zhu Qianying’s situation as soon as possible and find a way to solve these potential problems.
Cheng Ye remained cold, "Mr. Yan, Ying Zi is just my employee, I only know that she is on vacation, I know nothing about her private affairs!"
Yan Han wasn’t a person with a great temper and at this moment, he was feeling a bit powerless in front of Cheng Ye.
First, this man had no vested interest in him, and even if he wanted to intimidate him, he had no means to do so at this time and place.
Second, at this moment, he was hoping to find a breakthrough from this man and knew that coercion would not work.
"Mr. Cheng, to my knowledge, your relationship with Ying Zi is not merely that of a common boss and employee, my son was sent back home by you and not only that, you personally took him to the express company, didn’t you?"
Since he couldn’t intimidate him, he could only leverage facts to pry open his mouth.
Cheng Ye chuckled but didn’t deny it, "That’s correct, I was the one who brought the child back to his country. I was the one who personally took him to the express company. But that was just because I happened to be heading back to handle some affairs. It was just incidental, as a boss, this was a small favor I could do."
The more Cheng Ye wanted to distance his relationship with Zhu Qianying, the more Yan Han felt like there was something between them. But Yan Han also understood that if he pressured him even more, he wouldn’t be able to find anything else.
Yan Han straightened his back and presented his business card to Cheng Ye.
"Mr. Cheng, I hope you understand that as her husband, I am very concerned about her safety. If you have any information about her, I hope you can inform me as soon as possible!"
Yan Han, right here, didn’t have much direct influence, but when the time comes, the indirect influence he has on hand is naturally much greater than Cheng Ye’s.
Yan Han, of course, had also investigated Cheng Ye’s background. Objectively speaking, Cheng Ye is a successful businessman, but without any other background. He’s just a wealthy man, but not a person of power.
Cheng Ye glanced at the business card Yan Han handed to him and finally, slowly reached out to take it.
After Yan Han left Ying Jewelry, he instructed the driver to head to the city where Zhu Qianying was residing.
Over an hour later, Yan Han finally found Zhu Qianying’s residence.
He stood at the front of the house and rang the doorbell for a long time, but there was no response.
Until a kind neighbor informed him that the owner had gone out on a trip a few days ago.
"Did the mother and daughter go together?"
"Yes!" The kind neighbor added, "She’s a designer and when she gets busy, she doesn’t return home for a long time. When she’s on vacation, she will travel with her son and mother."
It seems, Zhu Qianying being absent from home, was the norm.
But Yan Han wasn’t assured and immediately made a call to the person who Ke Kai had contacted before, and then sat down in a nearby hotel.
Without any further information, he could only wait here like awaiting rabbits.
Yan Han, who had been in constant motion for more than a day, took a bath, looked at the time, thought of it being daylight back home and picked up the phone to call home.
Before he left, he told his parents that he was going to find Zhu Qianying.
To his son, he simply said, "Son, daddy is going to bring mommy back home!"
The little guy just stared at him silently, but Yan Han could see the hint of redness in the corners of the little fellow’s eyes.
After living together for a few days, Yan Han found more and more that his son’s temper was exactly like his mother’s, particularly stubborn.
Before the little boy was sent back home, Zhu Qianying must have said something to him. Therefore, no matter how his father and grandparents coaxed the little boy these days, they couldn’t coax any useful information out of him.
Sometimes, being too smart is not necessarily a good thing.
While Yan Han was thinking about this, he heard uncle Hai’s voice from the phone, "Hello, the Yan Mansion, who are you looking for?"
"Uncle Hai, can you call my son for me?"
Yan Han wasn’t sure if he would be able to get any useful information from his son, but if he didn’t try, he wouldn’t be at peace.
"Young Master, your daddy is on the phone!"
Yan Han heard uncle Hai’s call and soon, heavy breathing sounds were heard from the other end of the phone, it was obviously the little boy who had run over.
