The Beauty CEO's Personal Expert

"Doesn’t matter." Ling Chen smiled nonchalantly and said, "Mr. Yang, speaking of being naive, actually, you’re more naive than I am. Do you know where your biggest mistake lies?"

Yang He gestured for him to continue. Ling Chen said, "Your biggest mistake is not knowing who I am. If you did, you would never have refused my proposal." With that, he said no more and turned to leave the office. His words were clear, if Yang He continued to be stubborn, he would have to take action.

After leaving the Yang Group headquarters, Ling Chen and Beison got back into the car. Ling Chen said, "Take me to Yang He’s residence."

Beison acknowledged and immediately started the car, driving toward Yang He’s villa. Yang He’s residence was located in a luxurious villa district on the outskirts of the city center, where every inch of land was expensive, and only the social elite could live there.

Beison had already figured out Yang He’s residence, and soon, the car stopped directly outside a three-story villa. After getting out of the car, Ling Chen looked around the environment, then climbed over the wall, went straight to the door, and knocked.

But after a while, there was no response from inside, not even the sound of footsteps.

"Aren’t they home?" Ling Chen turned and asked Beison. The latter shook his head and said, "My people have been keeping an eye on this place. If they went out, there’s no way we wouldn’t know." Saying this, he took out his phone and dialed a number. Soon, a man ran over from not far outside the three-story villa and quickly came to Ling Chen and Beison’s side.

"Mr. Ling, boss."

Beison pointed to the villa and asked, "Where are Jiang Yue’e and Nanrong Wanqing? They’re not here?"

"Boss, I’ve been stationed outside these days. Jiang Yue’e and the others rarely come out, spending most of their time indoors. Also, I’ve recorded every vehicle going in and out of the villa. You can check it out."

Seeing the other party so certain, Ling Chen nodded, asking no further questions. He trusted the other party’s capabilities and assumed there would be no mistake. Since Jiang Yue’e and Nanrong Wanqing were not here, where did they go? Could they have returned home to visit Nanrong Yong? Thinking of this, he returned to the car with Beison and called Nanrong Hao to inquire about the situation.

However, although the call went through, no one answered. At this point, he dialed Nanrong Yong’s number, but the result was the same. Ling Chen frowned slightly, muttering to himself that it was strange. Nanrong Yong wasn’t actually seriously ill but was pretending, so why wasn’t anyone answering?

While pondering, Beison spoke up beside him, "Boss, why don’t you return to the hotel first? I’ll take some men to investigate and see if we can find out where they went."

Ling Chen nodded and said, "That’s all we can do."

In the blink of an eye, more than eight hours passed, and it was gradually getting darker. By around nine in the evening, Beison and his subordinates finally returned to the hotel with bad news.

"Boss, that bastard Yang He is missing."

"Missing?" Ling Chen stood up abruptly and asked, "What do you mean?"

"During the day, I kept searching for Jiang Yue’e and Nanrong Wanqing, but unfortunately, found nothing. Then I went to the Yang Group headquarters to tail Yang He. Yang He should know their whereabouts; if we followed him, we might find them. But after trailing Yang He’s convoy to the villa, we found Yang He wasn’t in the car."

Ling Chen thought for a moment and said, "Yang He knew we were coming and must have taken precautions to avoid being discovered. However, this is no big deal; the wedding is in two days, and they will show up eventually." After pausing for a moment, he continued, "By the way, have someone monitor Yang He’s parents. They’re sure to attend the wedding, and following them will lead us to Yang He’s whereabouts."

"Understood."

Just as they were speaking, Ling Chen’s phone suddenly rang. He took out his phone, glanced at the caller ID, and then answered it, asking, "How’s it going?"

"I went to the Nanrong Family but didn’t find Nanrong Hao or Mr. Nanrong. That guy named Liu Kun also isn’t there; I don’t know where they’ve gone." Kaelina’s voice came through the phone.

"How can they be gone?" Ling Chen asked. Today, when he tried calling Nanrong Hao, no one answered, so he asked Kaelina to visit the Nanrong Family. "Have you checked the Hongyu Group?"

"Checked everywhere, no one knows where they are. I asked the Nanrong Family’s maid, but she doesn’t know either."

"They can’t all just vanish without a trace." Ling Chen said sternly. "There’s definitely something wrong here. You and Hu Fei should investigate and see if you can find them."

"Alright."

After hanging up, Ling Chen lightly tapped the armrest of the sofa with his fingers, feeling uneasy. Jiang Yue’e, Nanrong Wanqing, Yang He, and Nanrong Hao were all missing—could this be a coincidence?

No! He shook his head to himself; after dealing with Jiang Yue’e so many times, he knew very well she was a person with many tricks.

One night passed.

The next morning, Ling Chen drove to the wedding venue. It was an outdoor banquet area located in the suburbs, with the main building being an ancient manor from the last century, showcasing strong European style. At this time tomorrow, Nanrong Wanqing and Yang He would hold a grand wedding here. As the main figures, they should be familiarizing themselves with the venue today in preparation for tomorrow.

However, by two o’clock in the afternoon, there was still no sign of anyone, with only a dozen staff members decorating the site.

At this moment, Beison called and said, "Boss, I didn’t find Yang He’s parents. I checked, and they had entered the country a few days ago."

Still no one? Ling Chen raised an eyebrow; this was really interesting. The key figures for the wedding were missing—could it be that they weren’t planning to hold the wedding?

As thoughts raced through his mind, a sudden idea struck Ling Chen, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

"Beison, have everyone pull back; there’s no point in wasting effort."

"Boss, what’s going on?"

"Let’s not talk about it now. Bring everyone back to the hotel to meet with me." With that, Ling Chen hung up and drove straight to the hotel.

Jiang Yue’e... this was a clever move. If not for his quick reaction, he almost got deceived.

Upon arriving at the hotel, Beison and his team had already returned and were waiting for him. After everyone gathered, Ling Chen instructed, "Beison, check out which relatives and friends the Yang Family has, the ones they’re especially close with, and quickly draft me a list; I have a big use for it."
