Chapter 178 The Knife Is Missing 1
In fact, the call Shen Jiaman received was from Xiaodao. He didn't say anything was wrong, he just said that he wanted to see her.

He rushed to the agreed small restaurant without stopping, and saw Xiaodao sitting in the corner at a glance.

"what happened?"

She walked to sit opposite him in three steps and two steps, took a few breaths of hot air and rubbed her numb hands.

"It's nothing, I just want to find someone to drink with me."

Xiaodao had already drank a lot, and his voice was vague, Shen Jiaman took a closer look, his eyes were red, obviously he had been crying, "What happened?" She raised her eyebrows and asked.

"It's really okay." Xiaodao shook his head: "It's almost Chinese New Year, I miss my mother a little bit."

"Then go back, don't you have any money? If you don't have any money, I'll give it to you!"

"No, I don't want to go back for the time being. I swore before that I won't go back if I don't get along well..."

Shen Jiaman glared at him angrily: "Then if you can't be a human being in this life, is it possible that you will never see your mother again in this life?"

"kindness."

She slapped him on the head: "Don't have such thoughts!"

"Sister Xiaoman, don't be angry. My Xiaodao is such a worthless person. I owe you two lives. I don't know when I will have the chance to repay you. If there is no chance in this life, then in the next life..."

"To shut up!"

Shen Jiaman patted the table angrily: "It's almost New Year's Eve, what unlucky words are you talking about?!"

Xiaodao smiled decadently: "Okay, let's not talk about it."

He picked up the wine glass and took a sip of the wine, sniffed and said, "Can I ask my sister for a New Year's wish?"

"It's okay to ask for a red envelope. Wish, it depends on whether I give it or not."

"You must have given it."

"What wish?"

"I mentioned it to you in prison last time. If I have a chance in the future, can I visit my mother?"

Shen Jiaman's face suddenly turned cold, and she asked in a deep voice: "Xiao Dao, tell me the truth, is there something you are hiding from me?"

"No, you are the only person I'm closest to in Zurich, and I won't hide it from anyone..."

"Then why do you say such strange things?"

"I'm just afraid that I will be worthless in this life, so I want to pin my hopes on you. Of course, you have the right to refuse. After all, my request is really too much."

Looking at Xiaodao's gloomy eyes, Shen Jiaman felt extremely uncomfortable, she stretched out her hand and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't do this, if I go back to China in the future, I will definitely visit your mother for you, but you have to cheer up, I will save you You came out hoping to see you live a good life, not to hear these despondent words from you."

Xiaodao nodded heavily: "Okay, I promise you, I will live a good life!"

Shen Jiaman smiled gratifiedly. The two chatted for a long time. When they parted, she said earnestly: "Remember, whenever you encounter difficulties, you must be the first to think of me. I will definitely do my best to help you!"

"Well! Thanks, I will."

Back on the mountain again, it was already one o'clock in the morning, she was frozen stiff, and tiptoed into the bedroom, Mu Yuanchen was already fast asleep, and took a hot bath, but it was still too cold.

When she reached the bedside, she lifted the quilt and lay down. The warm quilt made her very comfortable. The man beside her was as warm as a stove. She burrowed into his arms, wanting to get more warmth.

"Where have you been fooling around until now?"

He startled her by making a sudden noise, and was stunned for a few seconds. Nuonuo replied: "What fool, it's because Xiaodao is in a bad mood. I chatted with him for a while."

"You run faster than a rabbit when he calls, and I can't even call back. You really don't see me, do you?"

Shen Jiaman chuckled: "Aren't you jealous with a child?"

"I'm not jealous, I'm talking to you about whether you see me in your eyes."

"Do you see you in my eyes?"

She turned on the light, raised her chin, and stared at the man beside the pillow with wide eyes.

Mu Yuanchen looked away angrily: "No."

"Who said there is no? Can you take a closer look?"

"If there is no one, there will be none, even if the eyeballs are dug out."

He turned his back and ignored her.

Shen Jiaman leaned on his back, but he didn't let her lean on, so she moved forward, who would have thought that she would follow him as soon as he moved, if the bed wasn't big enough, she would have fallen to the ground long ago.

"Why are you turning your back on me?"

Mu Yuanchen didn't speak.

"Why are you ignoring me?"

He still doesn't speak.

"Ignore me and pull me down."

Shen Jiaman also turned her back, closed her eyes and counted in her heart: one, two, three, four, five...

"Look at how frozen you are!"

Someone finally lost his temper and turned around, pulling her into his arms.

"Didn't you ignore me?"

"I love you so much! I'll settle the score with him tomorrow for that knife. There's nothing wrong with it. I'm tormenting you in the middle of the night."

"Don't scold the knife."

She glared at him warningly.

The arms wrapped around her waist strengthened, and Shen Jiaman snuggled under Mu Yuanchen's armpits like a bird. The warmest thing in the world is the body temperature of a lover.

The New Year's Eve was approaching, thinking about what Xiaodao said that night, Shen Jiaman always felt uneasy, thought twice, and decided to go to Mu's to see him.

Since the security, every time she went to Mu's, she could see Xiao Dao standing at the door, but today, there was no sign of him at the door.

She panicked immediately, and quickly asked the other two security personnel: "Excuse me, is Chen Dao resting today?"

"I don't know, he hasn't come to work for two days."

"Didn't go to work for two days?" Shen Jiaman opened his mouth wide in shock: "Then he didn't tell you what he did?"

"No."

She froze for a moment, then turned her legs and ran towards the elevator. She should ask Mu Yuanchen.

With a restless heart, she pushed open the door of the president's office, and asked anxiously as soon as she entered, "Where's the knife?"

Mu Yuanchen looked up at her, and was stunned for a few seconds: "Is he not there?"

"Of course he's not here. His colleagues said he hasn't come to work for two days. Don't you know??"

"I really don't know that."

Shen Jiaman panicked even more when he heard this, and stomped her foot: "How can you, as the boss, not know that your employees haven't come to work?"

"Only his supervisor knows this. I manage a company with thousands of people. If I know who is not coming to work, then my boss must be too idle."

"The little knife is a special person, don't you care if you don't see him when you go in and out of the company every day?"

Mu Yuanchen snorted angrily: "I never look around when I go in and out of the company. I don't even look at women, let alone men!"

"You are making excuses for your management negligence, as a president..."

"Wait a moment."

Mu Yuanchen interrupted her: "Are you the chairman? Are you scolding me like this?"

"Of course I'm not the chairman. I'm just asking your company for an explanation as an employee's sister. You have 5 minutes to tell me the whereabouts of my brother."

Mu Yuanchen looked her up and down, and held back for a long time before he could say, "You woman, I'm convinced."

He pressed the intercom, and after a while, Gao Yujie walked in.

"Go and ask why Chen Dao hasn't come to work these two days?"

"Ok."

After waiting for about ten minutes, Gao Yujie came back: "Mr. Mu, no one in the administrative department knows why Chen Dao didn't come to work. He didn't ask for leave or resign. To be precise, he was absent from work."

"Did you hear me?"

Sitting on the spacious office chair, Mu Yuanchen raised his eyebrows lazily.

Shen Jiaman has already called Xiaodao dozens of times, and the reminder is to turn off the phone. He will listen to Gao Yujie's report, and ran out without saying a word. He rushed to the place where Xiaodao lived. The door inside was locked tightly. I asked the tenant next door and said that I hadn't seen him for two days.

Reminiscent of those strange words that Xiaodao said that night, a bad feeling came to her heart, she went to Mu's again, and as soon as she saw Mu Yuanchen, she begged, "Xiaodao is missing, help me find it." OK?"

"If it's gone, it's gone. There are so many people in Zurich, where can I find them?"

"If you want to find it, there will always be a way. He has offended many people before. If you don't find him, he will be in danger."

Mu Yuanchen cast a glance at her: "You think of me as omnipotent. I couldn't find you when I looked for him back then, so how could I find him."

"You can't find me because you don't know my name, but you know Xiaodao's name and some things about him, don't you?"

"So what if you know? There's no need to look for an unknown person like him who comes and goes without a trace."
