Ye Moxuan’s piercing gaze was as sharp as a blade when it fell upon her body. In that instant, Shen Qi was rendered speechless; she didn’t know how to explain herself.
Therefore, she could only bite her lower lip and stare at Ye Moxuan because she wasn’t going to explain herself nor say anything.
Ye Moxuan narrowed his eyes and wrapped his slender fingers lightly upon the steel armrest of the wheelchair. “It seems that you aren’t planning to explain yourself?”
Shen Qi stubbornly bit her lower lip out of worry.
“Assistant Shen, how did you follow us here?” Xiao Su looked surprised when he saw Shen Qi here. However, he felt delighted in his heart. Could Assistant Shen be jealous when she knew about Young Master Ye’s matter?
With that thought in mind, Xiao Su couldn’t help but glance at Ye Moxuan.
He noticed that Ye Moxuan was frowning, and the surrounding air had dropped to a frighteningly low temperature. He then put away his predictions when he saw this scene.
“Since you don’t plan on explaining yourself, then I’ll assume that I didn’t see anything. Do whatever you need to do.” With that, Ye Moxuan pushed his wheelchair and turned around, thereupon Xiao Su’s eyes widened. “Young Master Ye…”
However, Ye Moxuan didn’t seem to hear his words as he re-entered the room again.
Shen Qi watched his retreating figure and seemed to notice something. She was about to call out to him, but his cold gaze flashed across her mind, and her words seemed to be stuck in her throat.
Xiao Su couldn’t help but look at Assistant Shen and said in a low voice, “Are you sure you don’t want to explain yourself?”
Since she followed them here sneakily, she definitely had to explain herself.
Shen Qi lowered her gaze. “If I explain it to him, would he believe me?”
Since he had always looked down upon her, wouldn’t it be better not to say anything? The outcome would be the same anyway…
“You…”
“Assistant Xiao, how… do we deal with her?” Through their conversation just now, the subordinates understood that Shen Qi was acquainted with Ye Moxuan. Moreover, Xiao Su treated her differently. That meant that Shen Qi and Young Master Ye had a good relationship with each other. As to what the relationship was, they were still in the dark about it.
Xiao Su pursed his lips and thought about it. Then, he said, “Young Master Ye didn’t make it clear, but she is special; you guys should… go easy on her.”
What he really meant was: don’t abuse her.
The subordinates exchanged glances with each other and nodded one after another.
Shen Qi was dragged away very quickly, and the interrogation continued.
Soon, Xiao Su returned and stood behind Ye Moxuan.
“Continue then.”
The woman took a look outside and asked doubtfully, “Did something happen?”
Xiao Su said, “Nothing, it’s just a minor interference. It won’t affect anything. Now, tell me quickly. Where were you on that day? What did you do? Did… anything special happen?”
That woman paused for a moment before she lifted her gaze to look at Ye Moxuan, whereupon she raised the corners of her eyes. “Special? What do you mean by that?”
Xiao Su was stunned, and just as he was about to speak, Ye Moxuan’s thin lips parted and his voice turned cold. “Did I allow you to ask a question?”
The woman was shocked by his powerful aura, and it took her a long time before she came back to her senses. “I only wanted to know what you guys meant by ‘special’. I don’t have any other intentions.”
Xiao Su came to his senses quickly. If it weren’t for Ye Moxuan’s presence, he would have fallen into the woman’s trap. “We are asking you to tell us the events that occurred. As for whether it is a special thing or not, we’d know once you speak up.”
Biting her lower lip without a word, the woman lowered her head and looked at the ground.
“Well? Tell us then!”
“Why do I need to tell all of you?” That woman suddenly scoffed. Then, she said gently, “This is my personal matter. Even if you guys brought me here, I have the right to remain silent, right?”
Ye Moxuan narrowed his eyes and stared at the woman before him. Then, he suddenly pushed his wheelchair toward her. As he got closer to her, his powerful aura enveloped her entire body. The woman’s lips trembled, yet she was feeling excited in her heart. Subconsciously, she got up and tried to get closer to Ye Moxuan.
Before he could get close to her, the pungent smell of her perfume caused Ye Moxuan to retreat to a distance.
“Get her out of here!” Ye Moxuan demanded coldly.
“Young Master Ye?”
Xiao Su didn’t understand what Ye Moxuan meant by this, so he turned to look at him. What was happening? Didn’t Ye Moxuan want her to tell him her side of the story by herself? Why did Ye Moxuan ask her to leave before she had a chance to do that? She was a suitable candidate that he had gone through many difficulties to find!
“Get her out of here!” Ye Moxuan’s tone intensified. Clearly, his voice was filled with anger.
Xiao Su didn’t dare to hesitate anymore and quickly ordered his men to bring her out of the room.
After she left, Xiao Su took a step forward and walked around the room. It was then he noticed that the place where the woman was just now still reeked of the pungent smell of her perfume. Previously, he didn’t realize it because he was standing at a distance.
“Young Master Ye, did her perfume make you feel uncomfortable?” Xiao Su approached him and asked. At the same time, he pushed him to the window to get some fresh air as it was well ventilated there. Therefore, there wasn’t any foreign smell there.
Ye Moxuan pursed his lips together and didn’t say anything. His gaze was lowered while his long lashes covered his inky black eyes, thereby making it harder to make out the emotions in them.
That night, that woman didn’t have any distinct smell on her; she was exceptionally clean.
Hence, Ye Moxuan, who was drugged at that time, couldn’t help but want her for himself.
Throughout the entire process, that woman’s inexperienced actions and nervousness drove him crazy. Moreover, she was a docile creature. She was absolutely nothing like that woman just now, who wanted to seduce him every time she looked at him. In addition to that, the perfume on her body was too overpowering.
Ye Moxuan narrowed his eyes as he thought about that stormy night.
“Sir… Sir, are you alright?”
In the end, he had locked her into his embrace, and she was so frightened that her entire body started to tremble. She wanted to push him away, but how could he let her go just like that? Her clean smell kept lingering around him. He was akin to a wolf that had just been released from its chains, thereafter he completely devoured her to the bones.
The only thing was, he didn’t expect that woman to escape entirely without leaving behind a single message for him.
However, he could make out that the other party was a coward. She didn’t dare to face the issue directly when something happened. Maybe… it was because that was her first time. Hence, she got terrified and ran away.
Suddenly, Ye Moxuan raised his head and his thin lips curved upward into a smile.
As long as she was within this city, he would definitely be able to find her.
“By the way, Young Master Ye, we only have men in the North City. Do you think that woman might be in another city?”
Xiao Su’s question caused Ye Moxuan to frown. That’s right! That woman… Could she be in another city? What if she didn’t originate from this city?
When he thought about this, Ye Moxuan’s gaze turned sharp and his voice got colder. “Then, assign more men to this case. Ask them to go out there and find her!”
Xiao Su nodded. “Okay, I’ll put more men on the case. However, Young Master Ye, I have been thinking… Do we need to investigate those women who had an abortion? I don’t think that any woman would want to keep a stranger’s baby, right? If a woman like that does exist, wouldn’t it be weird?”
Xiao Su also thought about something when he said this. “One more thing, we can’t just investigate at the hospital, right? After all, that woman might not be pregnant…”
When he heard the latter part of his sentence, the veins on Ye Moxuan’s forehead started to pulsate before he suddenly punched Xiao Su.
“Damn it! You should have thought about this earlier! And you dare bring it up in front of me?!”
