Chapter 613 Tracked in the Rain
The Yan Family had been denying themselves to visitors for a week.
Shao Tianze visited them every day.
But Yan Lun was not easily prevailed on. Though Shao Tianze visited him every day, he still didn’t manage to see him.
Hearing Shao Tianze talking about this, Gu Changle appeared somewhat annoyed, saying, “The old crock was obviously putting it on.”
“Of course I know that he isn’t sick at all.”
Even if Gu Changle didn’t mention that, Shao Tianze was clear about it.
“In that case, why are you still wasting your time with him?”
Gu Changle felt confused.
Shao Tianze lowered his eyes, replying, “Yan Lun is important to us. After all, he is a dominant figure in the Shao enterprise.”
Hearing that, Gu Changle uttered a snorting laugh, replying, “Who isn’t a dominant figure in your eyes?”
Apart from Yan Lun, there were Guo Yuyue and Tan You.
They were both indispensable to the Shao enterprise. But what happened next?
They became utterly devoid of conscience and turned against Shao Tianze. Both of them swung from Shao Tianze to Song Yunxuan.
Considering that it was inappropriate to point it out to Shao Tianze, Gu Changle just dropped a hint to him.
Sensing that Gu Changle’s words had a double meaning, Shao Tianze glanced at Gu Changle’s face, saying, “I’ll take care of Yan Lun by myself. Don’t worry.”
Gu Changle sensed that she might have crossed the line. After calming herself down, Gu Changle replied, “I believe in you, Tianze.”
After Gu Changge and Song Yunjia both died, Gu Changle had got no adversaries now.
So unknowingly, she actually became less tender to Shao Tianze.
Every man loved tender and beautiful women, and Shao Tianze was no exception.
Realizing that she was becoming more and more irritable, Gu Changle felt a bit uneasy.
Meanwhile, she was changing herself bit by bit.
Seeing that Shao Tianze prepared to leave after finishing his words, Gu Changle reached out, grabbed hold of Shao Tianze’s fingers, looked at him, and implored, “Are you leaving now? Stay with me for some more time, OK?”
Looking at the tenderness in her eyes, Shao Tianze finally couldn’t bear to let her down. So he replied, “Fine.”
Just at the moment when Shao Tianze was lost in Gu Changle’s tenderness, Song Yunxuan had arrived at the gate of the Yan Family with tonics and gifts.
Yan Lun let the butler ask Song Yunxuan to leave just like he did to other visitors.
Song Yunxuan kept visiting him for about half a month.
However, Yan Lun still showed no inclination to see Song Yunxuan.
Despite that, Song Yunxuan did not give up.
During the month when Yan Lun locked himself inside, his family doctor had come several times.
Yan Jin, the sole heir of the Yan Family, had been wandering between the Yan Family and the Yan enterprise.
Seeing that Song Yunxuan visited the Yan Family every day and had never been able to see Yan Lun, Xiao Hong didn’t understand why Song Yunxuan did that. Thus she asked, “Manager Song, you were always rejected by the Yan Family. How about letting me deliver the gifts to the Yan Family since tomorrow?”
Xiao Hong was a capable assistant, and Song Yunxuan knew that Xiao Hong wanted to share her worries.
But as for this matter, Song Yunxuan had to do it herself.
She smiled at Xiao Hong and said, “I can’t find a substitute for this. I can do it on my own. No need to help me.”
“But all your efforts are in vain. Besides, Yan Lun doesn’t know that you come to see him in person.”
“Even Liu Bei could pay three visits to the hut to persuade the great military counselor, Zhuge Liang, to cooperate with him. Yan Lun may want to see me if I keep visiting him.”
Xiao Hong pressed her lips and said to Song Yunxuan, “But Shao Tianze also comes in person every day.”
Song Yunxuan smiled, “In that case, the one who doesn’t give up will have the last laugh.”
And then Song Yunxuan continued, “Run a check on Yan Jin for me please.”
Xiao Hong nodded.
On the next day, Song Yunxuan saw the dark clouds right after she got up.
It was going to rain as the dark clouds massed on the horizon in such an early morning.
When Song Yunxuan arrived at the table, Zang Linger was having breakfast.
Zang Linger used her chopsticks to poke the porridge in her bowl with boredom and leafed through the morning papers.
When Zang Linger turned to the entertainment series, she said, “The fair-haired boy looks handsome.”
Song Yunxuan replied without even looking up, “So? Nothing but an eye candy.”
“He is a money-spinner!” Zang Linger said smilingly, “Yunxuan, have you ever thought of entering the showbiz?”
“You wanna be an actress or an investor?”
“Neither. Not interested.” Hearing that, Zang Linger turned the entertainment series over and turned to the finance series, saying, “It’s been a month. Still no news from Chu Mochen.”
Song Yunxuan lowered her eyes, remaining silent for a while.
Then Zang Linger sighed gently and continued, “The wreckage of the aircraft has not been found yet. Even though the fleet went to search it, there is still no news. Where on earth did this plane go? To a blackhole? Or somewhere else?”
“I don’t know.”
Song Yunxuan’s answer was boring.
Zang Linger pursed her lips, asking, “Have you contacted the Chu Family lately?”
“No.”
Chu Mochen’s parents should still have been lost in the sadness of losing their sole heir.
The thing that Song Yunxuan returned from New Yerk too soon had probably antagonized the Chu Family.
If not for this, Mr. and Mrs. Chu should have contacted her at any time of the month.
“However, Chu Mochen’s funeral has still not been held yet.”
Zang Linger murmured, “In the final analysis, the Chu Family still thinks that Chu Mochen could be alive.”
“Yes.”
Song Yunxuan replied faintly. After breakfast, Song Yunxuan got up, saying, “I’ve had enough. See you.”
Song Yunxuan prepared to leave.
Zang Linger was going to stop her and talk about something else with her. But on seeing that she left so quickly, Zang Linger decided to put her foot down.
Song Yunxuan took over the car key from the butler, pulled the car door open, and got into the car.
After driving out of the Song Family, Song Yunxuan slightly frowned on seeing the leaden sky. Then she swerved to the road to the Chu Family.
The Song Family was a bit far from the Chu Family, so it would take much longer to drive to the Chu Family than to the Song enterprise.
On the halfway, Song Yunxuan received a call from Mei Qi, “Manager Song, why haven’t you arrived in the company yet?”
“I want to pay the Chu Family a visit.”
Mei Qi remained silent for a moment and then replied, “OK. I’ll cancel the morning meeting and switch it to tomorrow.”
“OK.”
Song Yunxuan nodded.
Then she hung up the phone.
After that, Song Yunxuan pressed the accelerator and sped up to the Chu Family.
When Song Yunxuan was about to arrive at the Chu Family, she noticed that a drop of rain suddenly fell on the clean car window in front of her.
Then drops of rain began to fall one after another. The rain became heavier and blurred Song Yunxuan’s vision.
Song Yunxuan turned on the windscreen wipers and continued driving to the Chu Family in the heavy rain.
When she was about to arrive at the gate of the Chu Family, she saw a dim shape that held an umbrella in the rain was going to get into a car.
Song Yunxuan frowned and fixed her eyes on the man holding an umbrella.
The man was of slim build. He seemed to notice the car passing by him. Then he halted and looked in Song Yunxuan’s direction.
But then he soon got into a black Bentley, and the car moved away.
Song Yunxuan was slightly stunned on seeing the figure and the car speeding away.
Then she subconsciously pressed the accelerator and followed the car in the front instead of pulling over at the gate of the Chu Family.
Song Yunxuan was familiar with that car.
But to be precise, it was the man who got into the car that Song Yunxuan was so familiar with.
She knew that man.
The man looked very much like Chu Mochen.
Song Yunxuan normally would not drive too fast. But this time, she drove so fast in the rain.
Noticing that a red Ferrari was following them close behind, the driver who was driving the Bentley in the front said, “Sir, the car behind seemed to be following us.”
The man who was sitting in the back seat of the Bentley hid his face in the darkness and all that one could see was his elegant jaw. He moved his thin lips and said coldly, “Shake her off.”
Hearing that, the driver sped up.
Song Yunxuan, who was driving the car behind, could feel that the Bentley wanted to shake her off. She frowned and pressed the accelerator harder.
After a long way, the driver in the Bentley still did not manage to shake Song Yunxuan’s car off. Thus he said with fear, “I failed...”
“Interesting. I didn’t expect her to be a skillful driver.”
The man said faintly. Then he continued, “Go to the Yiyuan Garden.”
“Yes, sir.”
Hearing the man’s order, the driver immediately turned the steering wheel and drove into a remote road.
The man took a look at the red Ferrari that was following them close from the rearview mirror, saying, “I don’t believe she can still manage to follow us.”
Seeing where the Bentley was going, Song Yunxuan slowed down the car, frowning.
It was obvious that the persons in the car had found out that she was following them. Though they came out from the Chu Family, it was hard to confirm their identities.
If they tried to make a move on her, it would be inappropriate for her to follow them.
The loss would outweigh the gain if Song Yunxuan just followed them out of curiosity.
She slowed down the car and pulled over. Then she watched the car moving further and further in the rain.
Until it completely disappeared from sight.
Seeing that the red Ferrari stopped following them, the man who was sitting in the back seat of the Bentley lowered his eyes, assessing, “So cautious.”
The driver glanced at the man in the back seat from the rearview mirror.
He could tell nothing from his cold face.
