The VIP gritted his teeth. "There is nothing wrong with !"
Mrs. Bo looked at him sympathetically. If there’s nothing physically wrong with him, then it must be a psychological issue for his wife to have run away.
Min Xin was almost driven to fury by their aningful glances. He finally composed himself, his voice tight. "I’m looking for Gu Anxi."
Mrs. Bo looked puzzled. "Why do you need Anxi? What does this have to do with her? She’s just a young girl. She couldn’t have done anything to your wife, could she?"
Min Xin spoke coldly, "I suspect she instigated things and deluded my wife."
Mrs. Bo looked at him with further sympathy and imdiately said to Bo Nianyao, "Then let’s call Anxi over and ask her."
Bo Nianyao gave a solemn nod. "Yes, we should clarify things. It’s not as if Mrs. Min, a woman in her forties, would just run off with a 21-year-old’s nonsense, abandoning her life of wealth and luxury. That would reflect poorly on Mrs. Min’s reputation, and even more so on Mr. Min’s."
How unhappy must she have been to give up her handso husband and endless wealth!?
Everyone present, including Chen Ming and his n, understood. They all looked at Mr. Min sympathetically.
No wonder they’ve had no children all these years. They always claid Mrs. Min wasn’t healthy enough for childbirth, but it turns out that wasn’t true; the problem lies with Mr. Min!
Tsk, tsk, tsk!
It seems Mrs. Min indeed had her reasons for leaving.
Min Xin looked at the couple, his voice cold. "Not bad. Quite the performance."
He waved his hand. "But this Bo Family... I’m determined to search it."
The faces of Chen Ming and his n turned grim; they knew the search was unavoidable.
Just as they were about to break in, a slender figure leaned against the doorfra, her voice lazy. "What’s such a big deal that you need to search our Bo Family? Besides, my surna is Gu. If you must search soone, search the Gu family."
Min Xin ground his fine, white teeth, looking at her as if she were his mortal enemy. "Finally, you dared to show yourself?"
Gu Anxi yawned. "What’s there to dare or not? With all this commotion, aren’t you just bullying Father Bo and Mother Bo, who are elderly, not in the best health, and too tongue-tied to win an argunt against you? My uncle isn’t ho either, so of course, I had to co out."
Her words made Min Xin instantly understand why the atmosphere in the Bo Family had suddenly shifted—she had swayed them all.
Consider Zhou Yucai—he was like this after just a few interactions with her. How much more so the Bo Family, who lived with her day in and day out?
Min Xin raised an eyebrow. "Too bad your appearance now won’t change anything."
He glanced at Chen Ming, signaling with his eyes. "Go in and search."
He was sure Zhou Yu had to be inside.
Chen Ming gave a signal, and dozens of n surged forward. Gu Anxi remained leaning lazily where she was.
Chen Ming approached. "Excuse us."
Just as he was about to bypass her and step through the gate, he felt his belt loosen—his sidearm was already in Gu Anxi’s hand.
Everyone was astonished.
Gu Anxi toyed with the gun, sneering, "You think you can just search whenever you want? Do you really think the Bo Family is so easy to bully?"
Min Xin’s smile was even colder. "And what if I do want to bully the Bo Family?"
"Fine. In that case, the whole world will know your wife is missing." Gu Anxi twirled a USB drive in her hand. "Imagine what would happen if this scene got out. Would they laugh at Mr. Min for being unable to keep his wife, or would they see it as a golden opportunity? After all, Mr. Min, you’ve made so many enemies; there would be countless people eager to kidnap Mrs. Min!"
Min Xin, who had taken a step forward, retracted his foot.
Gu Anxi chuckled, casually tossing the USB drive to Min Xin.
Min Xin instinctively reached for it, but Gu Anxi casually fired a shot—
BANG! Everyone froze.
She actually dared to fire a gun in front of Mr. Min!
Then, a faint sound of sothing hitting the ground.
The USB drive, pierced with a small hole, fell to the ground.
Her marksmanship was simply divine!
Having witnessed this display, Min Xin was even more certain Gu Anxi was responsible. Look at that skill! Only soone this capable could have spirited soone away from under so many eyes.
He spoke coldly, "Miss Gu, your denial is a dead giveaway. Take her away."
Gu Anxi chuckled. "How strange. Your wife is missing; what does that have to do with ?"
Min Xin squinted. "Because I can’t think of anyone else."
Just then, a black luxury van sped towards them, screeching to a halt at the Bo Family’s main gate.
Mr. and Mrs. Bo Nianyao imdiately hurried forward, overjoyed. "Mr. Wang, what brings you here so late? Are you here for a late-night snack?"
The car door opened, and out stepped King Jingyao. He cut a dazzling figure and, looking like a respected elder brother, surveyed the scene with a chuckle. "Min Xin, what’s all this? Making a scene like you’re catching an adulterer."
Min Xin replied coldly, "You’ve co at the right ti. Gu Anxi took Zhou Yu away this afternoon."
"Did she?" King Jingyao laughed. "Then you must have misunderstood her. The little rascal was with all afternoon. How could she have gone to your house to ’steal’ your wife?"
He paused. "Besides, she’s just a young girl. What would she ’steal’ Zhou Yu for?"
