After the divorce, the crazy CEO knocked on his ex-wife's door every night.

But she soon found herself feeling weak all over, as if even breathing required a great deal of effort.

Before she could even sit up completely, another servant, who had rushed over upon hearing the commotion, gently but firmly pressed down on her shoulder.

"You are too weak right now; your body hasn't recovered enough to allow you to move around freely."

The servant's tone was gentle but firm, "At least let him rest here for a few days. If there's anything that absolutely needs to be done, we can pass it on to someone else. You know, our third young master just went out on some business. If there's anything important, we can wait until he returns."

This conversation filled Shen Xuan with doubt and confusion.

After a moment of silence, she suddenly realized that she was actually in the Lu family mansion.

This is absolutely incredible.

Could it be that Lu Shuli rescued him from some dangerous place?

This speculation surprised her greatly.

She raised her hand and gently touched her forehead, trying to calm her chaotic thoughts.

He asked in a low, slightly uncertain voice, "How could this be? Why is he here? You just mentioned your family's third young master, where is he?"

"Regarding this matter, the Third Young Master went to the old house in the suburbs early this morning, where there are several respected elders who need to be taken care of."

The maid patiently replied, "Madam hasn't been staying here much lately, so this place is relatively quiet. Before she left, she specifically instructed us to take good care of you. Therefore, please don't worry about anything else; just rest well."

When these things were mentioned, Shen Xuan couldn't help but recall Li Siyuan's stern expression and his almost ruthless words.

Due to certain irreconcilable reasons, they were once forced to flee Jiangcheng and the Shen family.

At this moment, her expression became exceptionally complex, containing both fear of the unknown fate and a few indescribable emotions.

Suppose that this powerful figure now knows his exact location...

The thought sent a chill down Shen Xuan's spine, and she dared not continue down this line of thought.

If Li Siyuan were to learn that he had escaped and was hiding here, the level of anger he would feel might be even more terrifying than it is now.

……

Meanwhile, on the other side of Jiangcheng City.

Li Siyuan stood alone inside the brightly lit headquarters of the Li Group, surrounded by his busy subordinates.

Just then, his personal assistant rushed over to report the situation: "Regarding the search for the missing Ms. Shen, we have mobilized almost all the resources inside and outside the company to conduct a search throughout the city. Unfortunately, we have not yet found her whereabouts. According to the information we have so far, the only thing we can confirm is that during last night's torrential rain, her figure was captured in a surveillance video clip as she left home."

Upon hearing this, a hint of displeasure flashed in Li Siyuan's eyes.

The next moment, he angrily picked up the glass teacup on the table and threw it hard, smashing it against the wall next to him.

A loud bang was heard, followed by the sound of shattering, with debris scattered in every corner of the room.

This sudden action startled everyone present, causing them to lower their heads in shock, and an indescribable atmosphere of oppression filled the air.

Jiang Yu stood at the office door, holding a thick folder. Just as he was about to push the door open, he felt a heavy atmosphere he had never felt before.

An invisible oppressive atmosphere seemed to permeate the air, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

Just then, a sharp sound was heard, and a cup was violently smashed to the ground, instantly turning into countless fragments.

"go out!"

The voice was like an icicle in the dead of winter, cold and sharp, seemingly a command barely squeezed out from the depths of the other person's throat, carrying a power that made people involuntarily want to retreat, causing the surrounding air to freeze for a few seconds.

The people who were sitting or standing in the room trembled almost simultaneously, and then, like small animals being herded, they cautiously and slowly retreated out of the boss's office.

Only when everyone was out of sight and could see Jiang Yu still standing still in the same spot, did they exchange a few glances and then quietly disperse with the smallest of steps and sounds. No one wanted to stay even a quarter of an hour longer, lest they attract more trouble or even disaster.

Although he knew that he might be the only assistant he could directly approach and communicate with now, Jiang Yu still hesitated for a long time after watching everyone else leave.

You know, no one understands and is most considerate of this busy man better than himself, but at this moment, he is filled with unprecedented anxiety.

Finally, after taking a deep breath to calm himself, he mustered up the courage to step into the room.

Upon entering the room, one could see Li Siyuan's tall and slender figure standing alone in front of a huge, curved floor-to-ceiling glass window, with his back to them.

His hands were already unconsciously clenched into fists deep in his pockets, and his gaze remained fixed on the distant horizon, as if he were deaf and blind to everything around him.

This posture made the whole room seem even more desolate than usual.

With mixed feelings of caution and uncertainty, I slowly approached, trying my best to make each step as light as possible, almost imperceptible.

"Boss..." Jiang Yu finally stopped some distance away from Li Siyuan and called out softly, his tone full of respect yet also intimate.

"Say!"

Without any unnecessary elaboration or emotional fluctuation, the other party simply uttered a single word in response.

Clearly, the events of this period have had a far greater impact on this usually calm and composed man than anyone imagined, to the point that he has completely forgotten his usual gentle treatment of his subordinates.

Seeing this, Jiang Yu became even more certain of his guess.

It must be something about Shen Xuan that made him less composed than before.

During this period, everyone in the company has felt an unusually great pressure from the top decision-making level.

"I have completed the relevant reports and materials regarding the Shen Group. Would you like to get a general understanding of the situation first?"

Trying to focus on the most important tasks at hand to distract yourself is a good idea, even though you know it might not really help much.

"Put it there."

The response was still devoid of any warmth. Li Siyuan subconsciously raised his hand to adjust the position of his shirt cuffs, a casual yet elegant movement.
