My Dangerous Billionaire Husband Chapter 931 – But That is His Lifeline

Chapter 931: But That is His Lifeline

Zhou Yao rushed back to T City on the third day. He made a phone call as soon as he exited the airport lobby.

brrrt….brrrt…. no one picked up.

What was she doing?

When he woke up yesterday morning, she was not in the tent. He found out after asking Xiao Zhi, she had taken a private jet back at five in the morning.

Why did she leave in such a hurry without informing him?

He was angry and his heart ached. He wished he could just grab her and slap her butt a few times. She’s a bad girl.

He called four or five times, but no one answered.

Zhou Yao pursed his thin lips. He had a bad feeling.

The jeep was waiting outside. He jumped into the passenger seat and closed the door with a bang. He ordered in a deep voice, “Go to the Leng family’s villa, Quickly!”

“Yes, sir.”

The Jeep soon arrived in front of the Leng family’s villa. Zhou Yao jumped out of the jeep and saw a familiar figure outside the villa. It was Ye Ziyi.

Ye Ziyi was knocking on the door. He looked very anxious.

“Ye Si, long time no see.” Zhou Yao walked up and greeted him.

“Hello, Major General Zhou.”

“Ye Si, who are you looking for?”

“Oh, I’m looking for Zhiyuan. I couldn’t reach her since yesterday morning. It’s like she’d disappeared. I’m very worried, so I came over to take a look.”

Zhou Yao frowned. Ye Ziyi couldn’t reach her either?

At this moment, the villa’s door opened and a maid appeared by the door.

Ye Ziyi said immediately, “Hello, is Miss. Leng in?”

The maid shook her head. “Miss Leng hasn’t been home for a few days. The young master and madam brought their father back to Hong Kong yesterday for medical treatment. I heard that there’s a famous doctor there.”

“I see, thank you.”

“You’re welcome.” The maid closed the door.

Zhou Yao listened from the side. Leng Hao and Ye Xiaotao had returned to Hong Kong? What about Zhiyuan? Did she join them? If it’s for her father, she would indeed go back. But why didn’t she pick up her phone?

“Major General Zhou, since Zhiyuan isn’t here, I’ll take my leave first,” Ye Ziyi said goodbye politely.

“Okay,” Zhou Yao nodded.

Ye Ziyi turned around and walked to his fancy car. He got into the driver’s seat, looked at Zhou Yao’s built back through the rearview mirror, and grinned slowly.

He stepped on the accelerator and the fancy car sped away.

What Ye Ziyi did not notice was that when he retracted his gaze, Zhou Yao’s sharp and deep narrow eyes were staring in his direction.

…

At the military unit.

Zhou Yao stepped into the data room in his heavy military boots. Xiao Zhi stood up and saluted, “Major General!”

“Mmm,” Zhou Yao nodded. He glanced at the papers in Xiao Zhi’s hand. “How’s the investigation going?”

Xiao Zhi handed over the papers. “Major General, this is all of Ye Ziyi’s record. It’s very clean. There’s nothing wrong with it.”

Zhou Yao took the papers and flipped through them. He quickly swept through it and found that it was indeed a very clean record.

However, the more innocent something appears to be, the more likely it’s faulty. He had been treating Ye Ziyi as his love rival. The spectator sees more of the game than the player. He might have overlooked many key points.

“Major General, why are you suddenly investigating Ye Ziyi? Ye Ziyi is part of the higher-ups, so his record shouldn’t be accessible. If it weren’t for the fact that he seemed to have been stripped of all his power a while ago, we wouldn’t have been able to access his complete record.”

Zhou Yao quickly grasped the key point, “Stripped of his power? Why?”

Xiao Zhi shook his head, “I don’t know either… But I heard that the political situation among the higher-ups had undergone a great change a while ago. One party was exposed, and Ye Ziyi was probably affected by that…”

“When did this happen?”

“Ye Ziyi was suspended from his post… after sister-in-law left prison. The party was exposed… the time when Major General had his surgery. One happened after the other.”

Zhou Yao’s pupils dilated. A lot of assumptions suddenly appeared in his mind, and things are slowly starting to connect. During that prison incident, Leng Zhiyuan said Ye Ziyi’s name before she was shot. Then, Ye Ziyi… got suspended from his post… Then, a party was exposed…

After she left him, she immediately went to Ye Ziyi. Finally, the Scorpion’s nest was found.

Why did this series of events all revolved around Ye Ziyi and her?

Yesterday dawn, when she was lying in his arms, she told him that she was not dating Ye Ziyi. She also said that she wanted to always be by his side. So why did she still have frequent contact with Ye Ziyi?

Zhou Yao cursed under his breath. He wished to slap himself twice in the face. Why had he not thought of these questions before?

What exactly was that woman hiding from him?

“Xiao Zhi, quickly issue a level one warning in my name. All special forces are to be on standby at all times to search for Ye Ziyi’s whereabouts. Close all traffic facilities for air travel. We must capture Ye Ziyi as soon as possible!”

“Yes, sir.” Xiao Zhi left in a hurry.

Zhou Yao paced around the room with his hands on his hips. He was trying to think fast. Who exactly was Ye Ziyi? Was he… Scorpion?

No.

Zhou Yao quickly denied this assumption. Even though he was certain that Ye Ziyi was indeed Scorpion, he was unwilling to admit it. Because if Ye Ziyi was Scorpion, then where’s Leng Zhiyuan?

Where’s his woman?

Now that he thought about it, Ye Ziyi had appeared in that castle in Tibet. At that time, Ye Ziyi pressed his knife against Leng’s neck, but he did not kill her. And yesterday morning, she rushed back to T City alone to look for Ye Ziyi. There was definitely something between the two people.

Why didn’t she tell him?

Where was she now?

While Zhou Yao’s thoughts were a hot mess, Xiao Zhi rushed over. “Major General, we’ve found Ye Ziyi.”

…

More than a dozen jeeps surrounded the dock. The cars were all guarded by the special forces. The passenger door of the frontmost Jeep was pulled open, and a handsome and upright figure hopped out.

Zhou Yao quickly walked to the riverside and looked at the calm seawater in front of him.

The owner of the dock had been escorted over. He spoke in fear and trepidation, “Sir… Sir, you’re too late. That ship had already left. According to the GPS, that ship had left its original trajectory and entered a domain that we don’t know about. It’s gone…”

They’re one step behind.

Zhou Yao knew that he was too late.

But, what should he do?

What should he do?

Ye Ziyi had left Chinese territory. Where should he look in this big big world? He wiped his face with his large, rough hand. Where’s his wife Leng Zhiyuan?

“Major General, sister-in-law… Ye Ziyi must have taken her with him.”

Mmm, Zhou Yao nodded. He knew. He knew that. He reasoned everything that had happened in the past few months in his mind as they were driving to the port. The woman he fancied played around with politics and was a cunning strategist. It’s no wonder that Ye Ziyi also liked her.

Who wouldn’t fall for a stunning and unparalleled woman like that?

But that woman’s his lifeline!

That woman’s his lifeline!
