Secretly Married to the Ice-Cold CEO-Chapter 372: What Happened to Yue Xiaoyang?

Zhang Miaoyan couldn’t make up her mind, unsure if she should go see Xiao Yang.

Xiao Yang had been in the United States for a long time, almost like he had vanished from the earth; there was rarely any news about him back in the country.

Zhang Miaoyan thought Yue Xiaoyang couldn’t bear the blow of the breakup and didn’t want to return to see Xiao Yu and Yu Zheng together. However, upon coming to the United States, she discovered that there was no sign of Yue Xiaoyang at Tengxia Industrial’s branch either.

What’s wrong with Yue Xiaoyang?

Zhang Miaoyan stood across from the Tengxia Industrial branch building for a long time, afraid of being seen by Yu Chen. Wearing a hat and sunglasses, she didn’t see anyone she recognized for half the day.

She wanted to go in and take a look but saw someone unexpected instead.

Yin Feibai got out of a car and stood at the building entrance for a while. A middle-aged American man came out to talk to him for a few moments.

Zhang Miaoyan hid in a phone booth, wondering why Yin Feibai would be here.

Zhang Miaoyan knew that Yin Feibai had been unfriendly toward Tengxia Industrial recently. When did he come to the United States, and why was he near this building?

Zhang Miaoyan didn’t know if it was a coincidence, nor if the American man was an employee of Tengxia Industrial. She took out her phone to take pictures as proof, so she could have Yue Xiaoyang check it out later.

After finishing his conversation, Yin Feibai got into his car and left.

Zhang Miaoyan put away her phone, pondering if Yin Feibai had any malicious intent. Wouldn’t he usually arrange to meet at a more concealed location to talk in detail? Why would he openly meet outside Tengxia Industrial?

She hoped she was overthinking it.

Returning to her hotel, she planned to visit the manor the next day. That evening, she received a call from Yu Chen. On the phone, he said, "There are a lot of company matters. I’ll be a few days late returning home. Stay at home and don’t go anywhere, understand?"

Xie Yuchen repeatedly urged her to stay home obediently. Zhang Miaoyan didn’t dare reveal she was currently in the United States.

If Yu Chen found out, he would definitely be livid.

She said, "Okay, I’ll wait for you to come back. Call me before you return."

Fortunately, she had told her parents that she would be staying at her apartment for a few days. They advised her to stay safe without suspecting anything.

Zhang Miaoyan didn’t dare go see Yue Xiaoyang. If she did, it would be the same as telling Yu Chen she was in the United States.

She packed her bags to return to China. Before leaving, she went to Wansu Technology to have one last look. She couldn’t go in, so she could only sit in the café across the street.

Jiang Cai Xuan went to the café to buy coffee and immediately saw Zhang Miaoyan sitting by the window.

In a café filled with Westerners, an Asian beauty was bound to stand out, and she instantly recognized her.

Zhang Miaoyan was entirely focused on observing the entrance across the street, unaware that someone was watching her.

Jiang Cai Xuan pulled down her hat and told the barista, "Medium hot latte, to-go."

Standing with her back to Zhang Miaoyan at the counter, she thought to herself how insecure Zhang Miaoyan seemed. Judging by her demeanor, it appeared Yu Chen wasn’t aware that she had come to the United States, right?

An idea suddenly flashed through Jiang Cai Xuan’s mind.

Zhang Miaoyan lacked self-confidence and didn’t trust Yu Chen. This was a golden opportunity.

Handing her the coffee bag, the barista said, "Here is your coffee, ma’am."

"Thank you." Jiang Cai Xuan took the bag and left, deliberately avoiding passing by the large windows. She took a longer route instead.

She went to a phone booth and made a call, "I have a very simple job for you. The payment is ten thousand USD. Are you interested?"

The person on the other end agreed without hesitation.

Jiang Cai Xuan knew the power of money, confident that someone would be willing to take the job.

After chatting for a bit, she said, "I’ll give you a two-thousand advance. The rest will be paid upon completion. This number won’t reach me again. I’ll contact you."

Jiang Cai Xuan headed upstairs through the side door of the building, thinking to herself, "Zhang Miaoyan, with your limited skills, how do you intend to be the Young Madam of the Xie Family?"

Zhang Miaoyan had been sitting for over half an hour when she finally saw Yu Chen’s car appear at the company’s entrance.

Xie Yuchen got out of the car, accompanied by a male assistant, with no sign of Jiang Cai Xuan.

Zhang Miaoyan felt relieved. She paid the bill and left the café, heading back to her hotel, oblivious to the tall, slender man tailing her.

The street was crowded with people. At a corner, just as she was about to avoid a woman pushing a baby stroller, she was bumped from behind.

She turned around, and a tall, skinny man apologized, "I’m very sorry, ma’am. I am in a rush and didn’t mean it."

Zhang Miaoyan replied, "It’s okay."

The man hurriedly turned into an alley. Zhang Miaoyan continued walking. She had almost reached her hotel when someone called out to her, "Miaoyan, is that really you?"

She saw that it was Yan Yuni. What were the chances? In the past few days in the United States, she kept running into familiar faces.

Not wanting to deal with him, she said, "I’m busy. Goodbye."

Yan Yuni blocked her path, "It’s rare to run into you. May I have the honor of buying you a cup of coffee?"

"Thanks, but I don’t like coffee."

Yan Yuni didn’t give up, "Miaoyan, so many years have passed, and you still haven’t forgiven me?"

Zhang Miaoyan felt he was overestimating himself, "Mr. Yan, if you hadn’t called out, I wouldn’t even recognize you on the street. There’s no need to talk about forgiveness."

"Miaoyan, I know you’re a person who values emotions. You used to love me very much..."

Zhang Miaoyan felt nauseated, "Yan Yuni, I’m married. My husband is the heir of Wansu Technology. Do you really think you’re better than my husband?"

The confidence on Yan Yuni’s face vanished, replaced by anger, "Miaoyan, you’ve changed since marrying into wealth. You didn’t talk so pragmatically before."

Zhang Miaoyan sneered, "Think what you want. From now on, pretend you don’t know me when you see me."

The tall, slender man hadn’t gone far. He had been following her and saw her talking with another man. He planned to wait until the man left before continuing his task.

But they kept chatting endlessly. Growing impatient, he checked the time, thinking that ten thousand USD was tough to earn.

Yan Yuni, now acting clingy, knew Zhang Miaoyan had come alone to the United States and became even more brazen, "You’re so practical. Just as well, I have money and status. Why not consider me?"

Yan Yuni’s words insulted Zhang Miaoyan’s dignity, "Yan Yuni, saying such things to a married woman, do you think you’re impressive? It only makes me look down on you more!"

She scolded herself for being blind back in college to have liked such a scumbag!

Spoiled by his family, Yan Yuni grew more unscrupulous away from home, thinking Yu Chen wouldn’t be able to intervene.

"Miaoyan, you’ve become even more captivating and beautiful. Just the type I like."

Zhang Miaoyan wanted to leave. Staying any longer would make her vomit.

Yan Yuni insisted on walking her back to the hotel. They began to tussle on the street, which attracted the attention of patrolling police officers who came over to ask for their passports.

Zhang Miaoyan cursed her bad luck, rummaging through her bag for her passport. In the process, a small packet accidentally fell to the ground.
