Mr. Xiao, can I borrow your wedding invitation?

Chapter 94 It would be better if they never came back.

Seeing his hesitation, Jiang Rourou decided to take the plunge. "Dad, if you find it inconvenient, I'll go in your place. That way, we won't make things any worse, what do you say?"

"Good Rou Rou, you're so thoughtful. Thank you for making this trip!" Nan Dongxue patted her arm, touched.

Jiang Rourou responded obediently, "It's my duty to help Daddy!"

Jiang Rourou seized a good opportunity. As long as the evidence of Nan Wu's affair with another man was conclusive, she would label her as promiscuous, unfaithful, and immoral.

If that happens, will the Xiao family still want her? Will the Nan family still want her?
She would be like a stray dog, with nowhere to go.

Jiang Rourou immediately went to the Xiao Group.

"Excuse me, ma'am, you are not allowed to enter unless you are a company employee or have been invited!"

The security guard on the first floor stopped her when he arrived.

Jiang Rourou stood tall and arrogantly said, "Do you know who I am? I am Miss Nan, and I have a very good relationship with your Xiao family. You dare to stop me? Don't you want to work? Get out of my way! If you delay my important business, you'll regret it!"

The security guard handled the matter strictly, saying, "Don't even mention the Nan family, it wouldn't matter if the Dong or Xi families came. The boss sets the rules, and I follow the boss's orders!"

"You!" Seeing that her hard approach wasn't working, Jiang Rourou had to resort to a softer one. "Brother, I really have something urgent to discuss. By the way, is Assistant Song here? I'll only be up for five minutes and then come right back down. Is that alright?"

The security guard waved his hand, "You should go back. Our Assistant Song went on a business trip with the boss yesterday!"

"What? A business trip?"

Jiang Rourou smiled.

Why did I have to go on a business trip yesterday, of all days? Nan Wu mysteriously disappeared at the wedding yesterday. She didn't believe it was a coincidence.

Is it possible that Nan Wu eloped with Song Zhu and is now secretly hidden away by him?
Thinking of this outcome, Jiang Rourou revealed a sinister smile.

Yes, that's it, I hope they never come back!

He immediately called Nan Dongxue, "Hey Dad, I guessed right, my sister is indeed running off with that Song assistant who's always with Master Xiao..."

……

Qian Ke'er's people captured Su Wen in Baicheng.

After moving out of the basement, Su Wen went to a nearby city to hide for a while, just to avoid Nan Wu and escape the past he couldn't forget. Because he didn't feel comfortable there and didn't notice anything unusual, he returned to Baicheng.

Unexpectedly, he was caught red-handed by the people guarding the place by Qian Ke'er. He even broke his leg while running away. Not only that, after catching him, Qian Ke'er whipped him all night to vent her anger.

The person is alive, but looks like they're barely clinging to life.

Qian Ke'er was so focused on avenging her sister that she didn't even attend the Xiao family's wedding, an important event, in person, and only sent someone to deliver congratulatory gifts.

She was waiting for Nan Wu to arrive so she could torture the siblings severely.

However, the person sent to the Xiao family brought back news that greatly disappointed her: on the day of the Xiao family wedding, Fourth Master Xiao carried a woman into his car.

Qian Ke'er wasn't new to this; she'd witnessed it once before. The girl had only escaped unscathed, assuming Xiao Shen was just like any other man, casually playing around. But she never expected…

She had a feeling this woman was the same one as the last one. She couldn't stand it for a second longer and immediately returned to Ningcheng. If she found out which vixen was seducing her Shen-ge, she'd tear her apart. Any man who got close to Shen-ge deserved to die!
Qian Ke'er went directly to the Xiao family's old residence and was told that Xiao Shen had not returned for the past two days. When she left, she ran into Xiao Jiayang, who was returning from outside.

Xiao Jiayang's face was gloomy, showing clear signs of being tormented by rumors.

He has lost face in front of everyone. Not only did his wife run away on their wedding day, but he also lost the expensive diamond ring he bought for her. He was even cuckolded by onlookers. How can he be happy?
If Nan Wu really has some hidden story, then so be it. But if, as the gossip-loving public says, she ran off with another man, he swears he will make that woman pay the price.

"Young Master Xiao!"

Qian Ke'er has always been aloof and arrogant, so Xiao Jiayang was somewhat surprised to be singled out.

Of course, so what if the Qian family is powerful? This is Ningcheng, the territory of the Xiao family, and he is the eldest grandson of the Xiao family. With this status, he can sit on equal footing with her, so there is no need for him to show her respect.

"Oh, it's Miss Ke'er!" Xiao Jiayang maintained the proper politeness. "Are you here to see my fourth uncle?"

"Yes, but they told me that Brother Shen hasn't come back these past two days. Do you know where he went?" "Hasn't come back? That shouldn't be the case. My fourth uncle didn't go on a business trip this week either. Maybe... he went to stay at another villa under his name!" Not to mention Xiao Shen didn't come back, Xiao Jiayang did too.
After making such a big joke at the wedding, he didn't want to stay home for even a day listening to his mother's nagging, so he turned around and spent two days playing in bed with his new girlfriend.

I must say, this young girl is really inexperienced. She's quite good at being coquettish, though her technique is a bit lacking. But that's okay, there's plenty of time, he'll train her slowly.

Qian Ke'er sighed, "I went to the Palace Garden too, but it's not there. It's really strange. I wonder where Brother Shen can go. By the way, Young Master Xiao, is there any other place Brother Shen frequents? Please tell me, and I will definitely reward you handsomely!"

Xiao Jiayang touched the tip of his nose, somewhat hesitantly, "Yes, there is, but..."

If my fourth uncle finds out that I leaked his privacy, I'm afraid I'll lose my head.

Qian Ke'er's gaze fell on his neck, which was half-covered by his collar, and she exclaimed in surprise as if she had just noticed it, "Young Master Xiao, your neck..."

Belatedly realizing what was happening, Xiao Jiayang frantically pulled down his collar, "Um, I... oh, it's from mosquito bites, it's so itchy!"

“I just remembered, Miss Ke’er. My fourth uncle might be staying at another place. Why don’t you go and try your luck…”

Nan Wu was restless. All she could think about now was leaving. In two days, it would be time for her to see Qian Ke'er. She knew how ruthless Qian Ke'er was. If she didn't show up, Su Wen would be in grave danger.

Every corner of the villa was occupied by Xiao Shen's bodyguards; not even a fly could get out, let alone a grown woman.

The bodyguard also said, "Fourth Master has ordered that you cannot go anywhere for the time being!"

So she's being held captive?

Even the windows were guarded by bodyguards; Xiao Shen had thought of everything she could think of.

Nan Wu chuckled, on the verge of tears.

Xiao Shen's car didn't return until noon, and Nan Wu ran downstairs.

"Fourth Master, let's talk!"

The man was changing his shoes when he heard her and looked up at her. His face was perfect from every angle, no matter how unflattering it looked.

Especially those eyes; when someone stares at them, they look at the dog with such deep affection.

But his expertise and skill in that area made Nanwu deeply suspect that his harem must have at least double digits.
