A whirlwind marriage leads to doting affection; the husband pampers her every night.

Mo Ze released Shen Nian, a hint of impatience on his face from being interrupted. He held Shen Nian close to her neck, panting heavily.

The knocking on the door continued.

"I'll go open the door, you go take a shower first," Mo Ze said hoarsely, gently stroking Shen Nian's hair.

"Okay." Shen Nian ran into the bathroom as if she were escaping.

She slowly squatted down against the door, her hands covering her heart, feeling it pounding rapidly as if it were about to burst out of her chest. After a while, she cupped her face in her hands; it was so hot, definitely bright red.

Finally, she touched her lips with her fingers in a daze, and then secretly smiled.

She stood up and stood in front of the mirror. She saw her face flushed, her cheeks like peach blossoms, looking charming and alluring. She then covered her face with her hands, feeling extremely shy.

Mo Ze waited until Shen Nian entered the restroom, then walked to the front door and opened it.

I saw Q standing outside the door.

"What's wrong?" He had already regained his serious and aloof demeanor.

When Q saw Moze open the door in his pajamas with some suggestive marks on his neck, she immediately turned her face away.

"Second Master, Leah isn't in her room, and she didn't bring her phone," Q reported.

He thought to himself that he seemed to have arrived at the wrong time.

However, they couldn't find L, which worried them, since it was snowing heavily outside and the roads were probably blocked.

"When did you find out?" Moze looked up at the time and asked Q.

“Half an hour ago, K said he wanted to ask L to join him so the four of them could play cards. He knocked on the door but no one answered, so he assumed L was taking a shower. After a while, he knocked again but still no one answered. He came back and told me and J, so we went over together. J had someone open the door, but no one was home. L's phone was still in the room,” Q explained.

“It’s getting late, and it’s snowing outside. We were worried something might happen, so we…” Q finished speaking and waited for Moze to reply.

Moze frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "Wait for me."

He turned and went back into the house, walking to the bathroom door.

"Near."

"Uncle, what's wrong?" Shen Nian had just taken off her clothes and was about to take a shower.

"I have to go out for a bit. You take a shower and go to sleep first. Don't wait for me," Mo Ze instructed.

"Oh, okay, sure," Shen Nian replied after a moment's hesitation.

Moze went out again, and Q was waiting outside. The two of them went to K's room one after the other.

"What happened?" Moze asked, sitting in his chair.

The other three people exchanged glances, and J was the first to speak.

“I spent some time with her in the courtyard in the evening, but we didn’t talk much. Leah didn’t seem to be in a good mood these past two days. She stood there for a while and then said she was going back to her room.” J paused and then added, “It was around the time you and Niannian came back, Second Master.”

Moze recalled the time; it must have been around eight o'clock.

"After that, none of us saw her again until we went to find her to play cards just now and found that she was gone."

Moze tapped his fingers lightly on the table, thought for a moment, and then asked.

Have you checked the surveillance footage here?

K chimed in, "I checked, and they only captured Leah leaving the courtyard around 11 a.m., and there's no more information after that. I asked the front desk, and they did see her leave around 11 a.m.."

"It's been snowing outside, I'm worried something might happen," Q added.

We all came out together, it would be terrible if something happened to anyone.

"Let's go out and look for them. K, stay here and contact us if you have any news." After making these arrangements, Moze took Q and J and braved the snow to go out and search for them.

When Shen Nian came out after taking a shower, she saw that it was already past midnight. For some reason, she felt uneasy.

I had originally planned to sleep on the climbing bed, but I tossed and turned for a long time and couldn't fall asleep.

She got up again and turned on the light.

He took his own phone.

She wanted to call Mo Ze, but was afraid of disturbing him. He must have something important to take care of since he was out so late.

He put the phone back on the bedside table.

I sat on the bed with my arms crossed, and after a while, the clock struck one in the morning.

She got out of bed, walked to the window, and pulled back the curtains a little. She saw a vast expanse of snow outside, a thick layer of it, and it was still falling.

Shen Nian's worries grew stronger. After thinking for a while, she changed her clothes, opened the door, and went out.

She walked to K's room and saw the light was on. She was delighted and went over to knock on the door.

When the door opened, K was somewhat shocked to see her standing outside.

"Niannian, what brings you here? Aren't you asleep yet?" K asked.

Shen Nian felt a little disappointed when she saw that K was the only person in the room.

"I'm sorry to bother you so late. The uncle said he had something to do when he went out, and I was a little worried, so I came to check on him," Shen Nian explained.

K let her go inside first, saying, "Come on in, it's cold outside."

Shen Nian didn't sit down after entering; she just stood by the door. "It's alright. If Uncle isn't here, I'll go back first."

K immediately told Shen Nian about Mo Ze and the others going to find L.

Upon hearing that the person was missing, Shen Nian became anxious, "I hope nothing bad has happened to him~"

“We were worried something might happen, so we went out to look for them,” K added.

"Don't worry too much, Second Master and the other two are fine. You go back and rest first. We'll go back as soon as Second Master gets back," K reassured Shen Nian.

"Okay, then I'll go back first." Shen Nian hurriedly went out without taking an umbrella. Before leaving, K gave her an umbrella so she could use it on her way back.

K didn't actually tell Shen Nian.

He doesn't know what's going on with Mo Ze and the others; he can't reach any of them by phone, and he's getting a little anxious.

I'm really afraid something might happen.

After Moze and the other two went out, they split up and headed in three different directions.

On a snowy day, the road is very difficult to walk on, with deep and shallow water everywhere. Fortunately, the three of them are in good physical condition and were able to walk for nearly an hour in the snow.

However, the snow was too heavy, and the footprints were quickly covered, making it impossible to see anyone.

At first, the three of them could still contact each other by phone, but as they went further in, Moze's signal was completely cut off.

Q and J were also a little anxious because they couldn't get in touch with him.

Given the current situation, going into the mountains is where accidents are most likely to happen.

Moze was heading in the direction of the mountain.

As the snow intensified, Q and J's phones remained busy, preventing K from getting through. They decided to head back, as it was too late to continue walking. They needed to find some specialized equipment and prayed that Moze had also returned.

The two turned around and walked back, where the snow had become even deeper.

Both of them were somewhat worried.

Moze walked towards the mountains for about an hour without seeing L or getting a cell phone signal. He stopped and prepared to turn back, but he suddenly slipped and fell down, continuing to slide until he hit his head and passed out.
