Chapter 317: Chapter 316: The CEO is gone

"What’s happening?! What’s going on?!" Grandpa Qiao watched the news with horror.

The CEO had fallen into the water and was nowhere to be found. Grandpa Qiao was very worried but he managed to keep calm and called Qiao Minde’s assistant.

The assistant told him the story and what happened to Qiao Nian.

"Sir, I don’t know what triggered Miss Qiao to commit suicide. Maybe.... Master Qiao knows.... But he... He is....." The assistant was very frightened that he stammered. The poor assistant had been getting many calls and messages regarding Qiao Minde.

He didn’t know how to answer so he simply ignored them all. And now, Grandpa Qiao was suddenly calling him.

"I know. Keep an eye on things," Grandpa Qiao coldly replied before he hung up.

Grandpa Qiao sighed. Things were becoming more and more strange in the family. He looked out the window at the tall and proud Shentu Group.

"Old friend, how are you doing?" Grandpa Qiao closed his eyes as he whispered.

*********

"They still haven’t found the CEO?" Qiao ShenJi walked into the police station.

He saw the looks on his wife’s face and sister in law. He didn’t need to guess to know the answer.

Qiao Minde was lost. The diving team and the police couldn’t find him nor his body. Qiao Nian was sobbing bitterly, blaming herself for it. Pulan had sued the car’s owner for negligence, causing the vehicle to lose control and hit Qiao Minde.

Now they were waiting for Mr Yan, the car owner to give the police a statement.

Pulan knelt down to Qiao Nian and gently pulled her hands away from her face. She rubbed her back and comforted her.

"Ah Nian, don’t cry. It’s not your fault, okay. He’ll be okay. The police will definitely find him," Pulan spoke gently.

Qiao ShenJi sat beside Qiao Nian. "Sister in law, don’t worry. Your brother.... shouldn’t be dead,"

Although Qiao ShenJi had grudges with Qiao Minde, he didn’t want him dead. Qiao Minde may have punched him in the face and pointed a gun at his head, but Qiao ShenJi thought that there was more to it than meets the eye.

Who would suddenly punched someone and threatened that someone on their first meeting? And the words that Qiao Minde said that year.... It seemed to held a hidden meaning. Until now, Qiao ShenJi couldn’t figure it out.

"It’s all my fault! If I didn’t stand at the edge and tried to commit suicide, he wouldn’t have fall!" Qiao Nian’s tears fell like an endless waterfall. She was so ashamed and guilty that she wished for an immediate death.

"Maybe you’re right," Qiao ShenJi confirmed.

Pulan shot him a look that says that he wasn’t helping. Qiao ShenJi returned it with a shrug.

"If you didn’t tried to kill yourself, he wouldn’t have fell into the water. If you try to kill yourself again, you’ll be letting him down. Remember, this life of yours was given by him. From now on, take good care of your life. Don’t simply throw it away, don’t disappoint your brother," Qiao ShenJi took the opportunity to empower her, thus nipping whatever suicidal tendencies she may have.

Qiao Nian nodded feebly. "I got it. I’ll treasure my life from now on!"

Qiao ShenJi shot a knowing smile at his wife. Just now, she thought that he was going to make things worst. But it turns out that he had other plans.

The company was thrown into chaos after hearing what happened to the CEO. Qiao ShenJi and Pulan had to return back to the company as soon as possible.

"Excuse me, Mr Yan wants to speak to the both of you," a young policeman came out of the interrogation room and said.

Pulan and Qiao ShenJi nodded. "Wait here. We’ll be back," Pulan stroke her younger sister’s hair. Then she followed the policeman and met with Mr Yan.

In the interrogation room.

"I swear I remembered putting on the handbrake. It was impossible for my car to turn and hit people. Not to mention that my car is severely damaged and I lost a lot of money!" Mr Yan said.

"Who can prove that there was nothing wrong with the car? You’ll be charged for negligence and hitting someone, do you understand?" The police officer sternly said.

"Brother officer, I know. That’s why I am swearing. Isn’t there cameras to prove it? Don’t put the whole blame on me!" Mr Yan cried, panicking at the thought of paying a severe price for hitting the CEO of the Qiao Group.

To cause the death of the legendary Qiao Minde was a huge capital crime. Even if he had ten lives, he wouldn’t be able to pay for it!

Pulan stepped in. "Officer, were there any cameras there? Can you please take a look?"

"Hold on a second," he spoke to another officer. It didn’t take long before they got the video footages from the cameras on the bridge that day.

"Zoom in a little," the police officer instructed his colleague.

They were looking at the laptop screen. Another officer came to provide support and help.

The camera didn’t captured much but the officer stopped at a certain time length where they spotted a suspicious person walked over to the car. At that time, Qiao Minde was trying to persuade Qiao Nian not to jump.

The face of the person couldn’t be seen clearly but from the figure it was a girl. The person went to car and opened the door. The camera couldn’t capture the person’s face but after that, the car started heading in the direction of Qiao Minde and Qiao Nian.

That person was gone! No matter how many times they reverse or forward the clip, it seemed as if that person could teleport!

Outside the interrogation room,

The door was flung opened and Lin Rong, Third Madam Qiao strode in.

She towered above Qiao Nian who was seated on the bench and shot her a condescending look.
