Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group

Chapter 1133: Chapter 1108: Unexpectedly Misunderstood

The call was disconnected, Song Xiaoxiao felt extremely gloomy in her heart, even thinking that Ye Chen’s anger hadn’t subsided yet.

After all, this was the first time Ye Chen had hung up on her before she finished speaking.

Ye Chen suddenly recalled when he just drove past the hospital entrance, he saw a girl in a hospital gown getting into a taxi.

Although he didn’t get a clear look at her face, her height, build, and the bandages wrapped around her face somewhat resembled Zhao Ziwei.

Could that girl be Zhao Ziwei, Ye Chen thought to himself.

But he didn’t know why Zhao Ziwei would leave without a word, or what happened while he was away from the hospital?

Ye Chen had a photographic memory, and he had specifically taken note of the taxi’s license plate number.

Using that license plate number, he found the driver’s contact information.

Dialing the number, the driver’s voice came from the other side.

”Hello, do you need a taxi?”

Ye Chen hurriedly said, ”Driver sir, I want to inquire about someone.”

The driver, hearing the request for information on someone, thought to himself that he was a taxi driver, not a private investigator.

As he was about to hang up, he was stunned upon hearing the girl’s physical characteristics described by the caller.

Because the person Ye Chen mentioned was the girl who had been crying continuously in the taxi earlier.

”Driver sir, I’ve been searching everywhere for that girl, I just seemed to see her getting into your car, can you tell me where she went?” Ye Chen anxiously said.

The driver could discern Ye Chen’s anxious tone, but he needed to first ensure the caller wasn’t a bad person.

If he was, he might inadvertently harm the girl.

”What relation do you have with the girl?” the driver asked.

”My name is Ye Chen, I’m the girl’s friend, I just went out to buy breakfast for her, but she was gone when I returned. I don’t know why she left the hospital without a word, but in her current state, she must stay in the hospital; otherwise, her wounds can’t heal,” Ye Chen said earnestly.

Hearing Ye Chen’s words, the driver felt Ye Chen wasn’t a bad person.

Hence, he revealed the name of the district where the girl went to Ye Chen.

”Thank you, driver sir, I’m really grateful to you, because you helped me, I will definitely reward you handsomely,” Ye Chen expressed his gratitude.

The driver didn’t really take Ye Chen’s words seriously, judging from the voice, the caller was just a young lad.

What grand reward would someone so young give him?

Besides, the driver didn’t help Ye Chen for his gratitude, he genuinely felt sorry for Zhao Ziwei.

After hanging up the phone, Ye Chen followed the address provided by the driver and drove using navigation to Meihao Li District.

This district was where Zhao Ziwei and her mother lived.

Although he knew the district name, there were so many buildings here, which building did Zhao Ziwei reside in?

”Forget it, I can only try this method,” Ye Chen thought to himself.

He found the phone number of Zhao Ziwei’s workplace, the claw machine shop, and dialed the number on his phone.

A female attendant answered and said, ”Hello, this is Dream Castle, how can I assist you?”

”Hello, I am Zhao Ziwei’s boyfriend, we had a spat, but I can’t reach her by phone. Could you please tell me where she lives?” Ye Chen tentatively asked.

Indeed, the girl on the other side laughed and said, ”She lives in Meihao Li District, Building 2, Unit 601. Our Ziwei is a good girl, you better not bully her.”

”Of course, of course, I’m just afraid she’s upset, so I hasten to find her and explain things clearly,” Ye Chen hurriedly said.

”Well, then I wish you the best of luck,” the girl replied.

”Thank you for your tremendous help, I’ll definitely invite you for a meal with Ziwei later,” Ye Chen chuckled.

After hanging up, the claw machine shop’s female attendant mumbled to herself, ”It’s unbelievable that Ziwei dared to fool even me, claiming to be single when she clearly has a boyfriend. She’s really keeping things hidden, utterly dishonest.”

Suddenly, her eyes widened and she covered her mouth, seeming to recall something.

”Wait, if he’s her boyfriend, how could he not know where she lives? Could it be the person who just called is a bad guy? If that’s the case, I’ve really put Ziwei in danger,” the girl displayed a guilty expression.

This girl named Xiaomei met Ziwei at the claw machine shop, and the two shared a close relationship, akin to sisters.

If her divulging Zhao Ziwei’s home address to the caller really resulted in harm, her conscience would definitely be disturbed.

Xiaomei quickly dialed Zhao Ziwei’s phone, but though it rang, no one answered.

She called more than a dozen times in succession, yet still no reply.

”Ziwei, answer the phone, quickly answer the phone,” Xiaomei thought anxiously.

With Zhao Ziwei continuously not answering, Xiaomei was so worried she started crying.

After hanging up, Ye Chen ran to the floor mentioned by Xiaomei.

At the door of Unit 601, he gently knocked, but there was no response from inside.

Ye Chen, possibly too anxious, didn’t care and knocked heavily a few times.

At this moment, Zhao Ziwei’s voice came from inside.

Finally, Ye Chen’s anxious heart relaxed.

The heavy knocking startled Zhao Ziwei awake from her sleep, she walked out of her room and realized her mother wasn’t home.

She figured her mother forgot to bring the keys when she went out, as few people would come to her home.

In a daze, Zhao Ziwei opened the door and saw Ye Chen standing there in shock.

Ye Chen immediately embraced the girl before him, tears unknowingly streaming down his face.

”Ziwei, why did you leave without saying a word? What happened?” Ye Chen asked anxiously.

”Ye Chen, let go of me. We shouldn’t meet again,” Zhao Ziwei tearfully said, trying to hold back her tears.

She simply couldn’t face Ye Chen with this face.

Ye Chen couldn’t understand why Zhao Ziwei would say such words, he just held her tightly.

Zhao Ziwei struggled incessantly, trying to break free from Ye Chen’s embrace. She even shouted loudly, ”Ye Chen, let go of me, quickly let go.”

Mrs. Zhao happened to be carrying groceries upstairs, knowing her daughter was in a bad mood today, and wanted to cook her favorite dishes to cheer her up.

But hearing Zhao Ziwei’s shouts, Mrs. Zhao’s face turned grim as she hurried upstairs.

Seeing her daughter embraced by a man, Mrs. Zhao thought this man was bullying her daughter.

She quickly threw the groceries at Ye Chen’s head and yelled, ”You scoundrel, let go of my daughter, I’ll call the police to arrest you.”

Zhao Ziwei saw her mother had already pulled out her phone and quickly said, ”Mom, don’t call the police, it’s not what you think it is.”

Ye Chen was also startled by Mrs. Zhao’s sudden attack.

Thus, the Zhao mother and daughter, along with Ye Chen, stood there motionless.
