Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chen Chen had no choice but to muster up his courage and say, Apart from this branch in S City, theres also a problem with the headquarters in M City. Well have to return to M City.

Wheres Zhuang Ning? Ye Cheng asked with great difficulty.

Chen Chen shook his head. I dont know. I cant get through to her phone. Its off.

Its off? That means shes filming, right?

Ye Cheng hastily brought his phone out to call Xiao Peng.

!!

The phone rang for a while before it finally connected. Xiao Peng sounded out of breath when she answered the call.

Young Master Cheng? Are you looking for Sister Ning?

Where is she? Ye Chengs voice was cold and slightly shaky.

Oh, shes filming a drama set in the rural countryside recently. Shell be back in a few days. Theres no signal there. Before she left, she told us to try our best to help you if you look for her. She said that something happened in your family recently so you might not be in a good mood. She told me to pay attention to you. Im sorry. I had an important meeting today so I didnt inform you about this in advance, Xiao Peng replied, seemingly without thinking.

Based on Xiao Pengs words, Zhuang Ning was working, and before she left, she had been worried about Ye Cheng and even asked Xiao Peng to pay attention to him.

For a while, Ye Cheng did not speak.

Chen Chen did not hear Xiao Pengs words, but based on Ye Chengs relieved expression, he knew that his boss doubts had been dispelled. He really had to admit Zhuang Nings acting skills were superb and that life was like a play to her.

In the end, Chen Chen tried his best to persuade Ye Cheng. Young Master Cheng, something doesnt seem right with Miss Zhuang. You shouldnt have given her so much authority in the company, and you shouldnt have let her know so many company secrets.

Ye Cheng was unmoved. He said, Shes the future lady boss of the company. Theres no need to hide things from her. She wont betray me.

Chen Chen was rendered speechless. He looked at the people from the tax department in the company and thought to himself, The company is about to face a huge disaster

The disaster swept through S City to M City.

Ye Cheng did not even have time to visit his father in the ICU and had to return to M City to a.s.sist with the investigation.

For a time, the Ye Groups tax evasion, bribery, illegal trading, and other corrupt practices were revealed one after another.

Ye Cheng was detained.

The Ye Group, which was without a leader, was crushed under the scrutiny and interrogation of various relevant departments. As such, more and more illegal acts were uncovered.

No one came to Ye Chengs aid. Even his soon-to-be in-laws, the Yin family, did not ask about the matter.

As for his connections with the police that he had carefully maintained for many years, they were naturally useless. During such a time, these connections were dangerous. How could anyone step forward to speak on his behalf?

Ye Cheng, who was used to being high and mighty, had no one by his side apart from Chen Chen, who was busy running back and forth between the company and the police station and had no time to sleep as well.

In just a few days, Ye Cheng was already haggard beyond recognition. At this time, he was still thinking about Zhuang Ning. He would ask Chen Chen every time Chen Chen came if Zhuang Ning had returned.

Just as Chen Chen felt he could not hold on any longer, Zhuang Ning returned.

At this moment, Zhuang Ning, who was sitting across from Ye Cheng, was tanned and much thinner. Her hair was also cut short. Her eyes shone brightly. It was this pair of eyes that made Ye Cheng feel at peace whenever he looked at them.

Ye Cheng looked at Zhuang Ning sitting across from him, and his eyes could not help but redden slightly. He said with great difficulty, Zhuang Ning, youre finally back. You have no idea how many things happened over the past few days
