Chapter 567: Chapter 565 I Want to Find Him

Like wolves, dogs too bully the weak and fear the strong.

Seeing the girl crying, the King let out a whine from its throat and lunged its corpulent body forward.

As Liang Anya’s crying ceased, she shrank back into a corner of the wall, too scared to make a sound.

Si Yuheng, upon hearing the silence, turned his nearly perfect profile.

Liang Anya thought he had finally been persuaded and held her breath, only to hear his voice drift over:

"Without my command, it won’t hurt people. But beasts will always be beasts, so it’s best if you don’t make any big commotions these next few days. Otherwise, it might trigger its animal instincts. Oh, sweetheart, I’m leaving now, reflect on your actions."

To call the dog a beast? This demon was the real beast!

Liang Anya wanted to cry without tears but realized that without his permission, she could not possibly leave the villa!

Even if Mr. Huo’s people were to look for her, this man could kill her in a thousand ways before she was rescued!

And this time, she had truly angered this demon!

She watched helplessly as the demon climbed the stairs and with a bang, closed the heavy door of the basement!

In the basement, it was dimly lit, and all she could hear was the muffled whining of the King.

It felt like falling into an ice cave as she hugged herself, tears surging out uncontrollably.

**

Several days had passed.

Jiayi had still received no news from Anya, nor had Anya contacted her, not even a text message.

Calling her, Anya’s phone was turned off.

Jiayi felt increasingly chaotic inside.

At first, she could console herself,

Anya must have run into some trouble...

Although Huo Tianpei had promised to help find her, there had been no word from him yet.

Today, while picking out costumes for some minor actors in the crew, Jiayi, because of her restlessness, made several mistakes. If it weren’t for the fact that many in the crew knew she was handpicked by Director Ye, she probably would’ve been scolded terribly.

This couldn’t go on.

Jiayi simply took a few hours off and left the set, hailing a taxi straight to Renxin Private Hospital.

Upon arrival at the single-family ward from the other day, the bodyguard by the elder’s side saw Jiayi and was taken aback.

Jiayi approached and got straight to the point, "I’m here to see the elder."

The bodyguard, having received instructions from the elder before, brushed her off, "What brings Miss Chu here today?"

"The elder promised me that he would send people to find Miss Liang, but so far there’s been no news about her, and the elder hasn’t given me a definite answer. I wanted to ask about it."

"Miss Chu, the elder has just taken his medicine and gone to sleep. It’s not very convenient," the bodyguard employed a stalling strategy.

"It’s okay, I’ll just wait outside. Whenever the elder wakes up and feels up to it, that’s when I’ll go in." Jiayi, holding her handbag, looked around and chose a long stone bench near the entrance to sit down.

The bodyguards looked at each other, not expecting her to be so adamant about seeing the elder. Finally, one of them came over, "Miss Chu, please don’t make things difficult for us, all right?"

Jiayi’s gaze faltered, what did they mean? She was just here to ask about the progress of the search, what did it mean to not make things difficult for them?

Her mind flashed, and she suddenly understood something, "The elder doesn’t want to see me? Could it be that the elder didn’t send anyone to find Anya at all?"

The bodyguard did not speak but obviously considered it an affirmation.

Jiayi inhaled sharply, no way, Huo Tianpei had clearly agreed so readily!

She pushed past the bodyguard and headed for the main entrance, wanting to go in and ask for clarification herself. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

The bodyguard stopped her, "Miss Chu, please limit your actions."

"What’s going on, who’s making all that noise outside? Don’t they know the old man is resting?"

A young woman’s voice rang out from the hospital building.

The bodyguards looked over and said in unison, politely, "Miss Su."

Su Yan’s gaze fell on Jiayi, and she paused in surprise, "Xiaoyi?"

Jiayi didn’t beat around the bush, "Has the old man really not sent anyone to find Anya?"

Su Yan glanced at the several bodyguards, knowing she probably guessed it, and paused without speaking.

It seemed that was indeed the case.

Jiayi was shocked, not understanding why the old man suddenly changed his mind, "Why? The old man clearly agreed to it."

Su Yan’s thoughts stirred as she looked at her, "I don’t know, but..."

Jiayi, seeing her expression as if she knew something, "But what?"

Su Yan hesitated for a moment before saying, "It’s just my speculation, and I shouldn’t speak out of turn. Xiaoyi, why don’t you go ask Mr. Huo?" With that, she turned and went inside.

"What do you mean?" Jiayi caught hold of Su Yan.

Su Yan seemed to be so bothered that she had no choice but to whisper, "After you left that day, Mr. Huo went into the sickroom and stayed with the old man for about ten minutes. I don’t know what the father and son discussed, but the old man never mentioned finding someone again..."

So, was it Huo Zhenyang who made the old man decide not to look for someone?

In fact, even if Su Yan hadn’t said it, Jiayi could have guessed it. What else could make the old man inexplicably change his mind besides Huo Zhenyang personally giving the order?

She released her hand, and Su Yan had already slipped from her grasp, her face full of anger as she turned and entered the sickroom.

Jiayi stood there for a while, then walked toward the hospital’s main entrance.

Standing by the roadside in a daze for a while, she hailed a taxi. After getting in, she said with a cold voice, "Desheng Villa Area."

**

Desheng Villa Area.

The taxi screeched to a halt at the entrance.

Jiayi paid the fare and quickly walked towards Huo Mansion; when she got to the door, she pressed the doorbell.

Soon, a maid hurried out. Seeing Jiayi coming with a frosty expression, she was taken aback.

Miss Jiayi never came to the villa on her own except for when she picked up and dropped off Zaizai every week.

The maid hurriedly opened the door: "Miss Jiayi, what brings you here..."

"Is Mr. Huo at the villa? I need to see him."

The maid heard the hostility in Jiayi’s voice and her heart skipped a beat, "The young master is upstairs, he’s having a private meeting with several assistants. Is there something you need—"

Jiayi knew that Huo Zhenyang, currently awaiting his position as mayor, did not have a fixed office and generally handled public affairs in the villa’s study.

Without saying much, she pushed past the maid and charged inside.

"Miss Jiayi, the young master is busy, please take a seat downstairs and wait until he’s finished his meeting..."

The maid chased after her, eagerly trying to stop Jiayi.

Jiayi was frantic, continuing up the stairs, moving as if she was familiar with the place.

The maid knew the young master hated to be disturbed while discussing business, but also felt it wasn’t right to stop Jiayi. In her anxiousness, she didn’t know what to do.

Fortunately, Huishao heard the commotion and came out from the servants’ room just in time, the maid called helplessly, "Huishao—"

Seeing the situation, Huishao’s expression shifted slightly, "Miss Jiayi, the maid has made it very clear; the young master is discussing official business. Please wait downstairs."

Jiayi stopped for a moment, "I have an urgent matter."

"No matter how urgent it can be, the young master dislikes being disturbed during meetings the most!" Huishao scolded sharply.
