Chapter 231
Mu Tianye raised his wrist tool look at the time for the nth time, the hour hand was already pointing to one in the morning.
The door remained closed without a single movement.
The long wait had worn away the anger, and there was more worry in his chest that made him fret.
Finally unable to sit still, he frowned and stood up, grabbing the phone and dialing her cell.
“I’m sorry, the number you have dialed cannot be reached.”
Frowning, Mu Tianye slammed the handset back on top of the handset and paced back and forth on the carpet for a few steps before walking over again and grabbing the phone, hesitating over whose number to dial.
He suddenly realized that he knew so little about her that he didn’t even know if she had any friends and what their phone number was.
What was there to worry about, she had so much money on her, she could find a random hotel to stay the night.
The anxiety in his heart didn’t diminish.
If she really had to stay in a hotel, there’s no way her phone wouldn’t work, she had so much cash on her person, just in case....
Then the phone rang.
With one arrow-step, Mu Tianye rushed over and grabbed the handset.
"Hello?"
"Mr. Mu, it’s me."
Hearing Zhou Tao’s voice, Mu Tianye’s excitement instantly dropped back to the freezing point.
“What’s up?”
Yayuan Villa was robbed. I’m worried that something important is missing, why don’t you come along and have a look?”
“I’ll be right over.”
Mu Tianye hung up the phone heavily.
He usually lives in Yayuan villa, where many information and important documents are kept. The villa security has always been strict. This time, there was theft. Piling this up to his anxiety, his anger shot up another inch.
His mood was already down and to encounter such a thing, Mu Tianye’s anger could be imagined.
Grabbing the car keys on the table, the man strode out of the apartment.
He’d like to see who was so brazen as to dare steal from him!
His Mercedes-Benz flew all the way to the Yayuan villa. Because he was closer than Zhou Tao, MuTianYe instead arrived before him. He did not return to the villa, but went straight to the security office.
Hearing a car stop, the security chief immediately came to welcome him.
“Are you Mr. Zhou Tao?”
“Where’s the thief?”
"Inside."
Mu Tianye walked in with great strides and pushed the door to the inner room. There in the middle was a girl sitting on a small bench with dishevelled hair and soiled clothes, hugging her arms and shrinking, both feet were on high heels, one bare and stained with mud and dew, but the black anklet on her ankles was glittering.
Hearing someone come in, Ning Xiaofei instinctively looked over sideways.
"Mr. Zhou, that’s her!" The manager on duty smiled apologetically and came in with Ning Xiaofei’s bag in his hand, offering it as if it was a treasure, "Look, this is what we found from her bag, 10,000 pieces of cash, and a computer ... Fortunately, we did a good job in security. When we found her, she was climbing up to the second floor. If we were one step late, she would have run away!"
With four eyes opposite, Mu Tianye saw a familiar little face with her red and swollen nose at a glance.
“Xiao Fei?”
When Ning Xiaofei saw him, she was first surprised, then she coldly snorted and turned her small face to the side, leaving him with a back.
She knocked on the door and shouted at him to beg, her voice has gone dull, but he ignored her, watching her brought back as a thief and interrogated by several.....
What is he here for now?
The manager on duty, however, changed his face, “You guys..........know each other?”
Just as his words fell, Mu Tianye grabbed him by the collar.
"How dare you beat her?"
