Chapter 214 I'm not one to be trifled with either
Shen Yan seemed to suddenly realize something, and asked with a deep frown, "The child is Jiang Yichen's, so what is his attitude? Why should you bear the consequences of his actions?"
I swallowed hard, looked at Shen Yan, and replied calmly, "He... told me to give birth and wouldn't allow me to abort."
Shen Yan was even more furious upon hearing this. She waved her arms angrily and said, "That bastard! He didn't even offer you a title or make any promises before making you give birth to the child! It's true what they say, men with money turn bad!"
He looked down at me, his eyes filled with worry and seriousness: "Are you really sure? If so, I can help you make arrangements."
I nodded without hesitation, my eyes resolute: "I came to see you today to talk about this. I don't want to continue this ambiguous relationship with Jiang Yichen, and I don't want to be a homewrecker that everyone hates. I want to leave this city, go somewhere where no one knows me, and start my life anew."
Shen Yan looked at me, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes. She gently patted my shoulder and said, "Okay, since you've made up your mind, I'll fully support you. I'll help you find a place to live and arrange everything. Just remember to take good care of yourself and the baby in your belly."
I looked at Shen Yan with gratitude and whispered, "Thank you. I might really have to trouble you this time."
She patted my shoulder and said generously, "What's the big deal? You can stay here with me for now, and then you can move out after I find you a place to stay."
I nodded silently, but a trace of worry remained in my heart: "If Jiang Yichen knew I was missing, he would definitely search for me everywhere."
Shen Yan looked at me with a firm gaze: "Don't worry, I'm not one to be trifled with either. If he really wants to come to my house, he'll have to see if he has the ability. Trespassing is against the law, no matter how powerful he is."
I felt a little comforted by Shen Yan's words. She continued, "You just got caught in the rain, go and rest quickly, or you'll catch a cold and won't be able to take medicine, and you'll be the one who suffers."
Hearing her heartwarming advice, my eyes welled up with tears, and I silently let her push me back to the bedroom to rest.
I knew all too well that the safety of this place was only temporary. Once Jiang Yichen discovered that I was trying to escape, he would stop at nothing to find me, and might even target my parents and friends. He had used similar methods to threaten me before, rendering me immobile.
So, while Shen Yan was away, I secretly took out my phone and kept searching for the best escape route. I knew I needed Shen Yang's help, but for safety's sake, the fewer people who knew I was leaving, the better. I carefully planned every step, afraid of leaving any trace.
Meanwhile, at the company, Jiang Yichen noticed I wasn't there. He went to the live stream room and saw Zhao Ning streaming alone. He frowned and asked coldly, "Where did Gu Mo go?"
Zhao Ning glanced at Jiang Yichen and sneered, "Wasn't he locked up at home and not allowed to go to work? I didn't see him this morning."
Jiang Yichen's heart tightened; he had no mood to argue with Zhao Ning here. Hearing that I hadn't come in this morning, he immediately called me, but there was no answer. He then walked to Lao Mo's workstation, knocked on the table, and asked coldly, "Have you seen Gu Mo?"
Old Mo shook his head: "We didn't see him either. He didn't come this morning."
Jiang Yichen's expression grew increasingly grim. He ordered Lao Mo to make a phone call. Lao Mo quickly took out his phone, but it was already switched off. Noticing Jiang Yichen's growing displeasure, he hurriedly said, "Mr. Jiang, don't worry, I'll ask around and see if anyone has seen any trace of Gu Mo."
Old Mo rushed to the front desk, anxiously asking if they had seen me arrive at the company that morning. The staff at the front desk recalled my hurried departure that morning, and their expressions were grim, but they stammered and none of them spoke.
Old Mo looked at them, a flash of anger in his eyes, and shouted urgently, "President Jiang wants to see him now, has he seen him or not?"
When the receptionist heard that it was Jiang Yichen who wanted to see them, she became even more frightened and quickly shook her head.
Old Mo went to ask several other livestreamers, but none of them had seen me. Finally, Little Sweetie stepped forward and said softly, "When I came in this morning, I saw him arguing with a few people at the front desk, and then he ran away in a hurry. I wanted to chase after him, but I got a phone call, and when I went to look for him again, he was gone."
After hearing this, Lao Mo's face became even more dejected: "It's over, the person is now missing, and President Jiang is looking for him. It's no wonder that yesterday's incident caused those young girls to gossip. Now that the person is gone, those girls can't escape either."
Upon hearing this, Little Sweetie frowned and asked softly, "Didn't you make a phone call?"
Old Mo shook his head helplessly: "I called, but the phone is switched off. The most important thing now is to find her, otherwise we will all be implicated."
The group was talking, unaware that Jiang Yichen had overheard their conversation.
He had appeared at the front desk with a gloomy face, coldly interrupting our conversation: "What exactly were you guys talking about?"
The staff at the front desk all lowered their heads, silent and trembling, not daring to utter a word.
Enraged by Jiang Yichen's fury, no one dared to provoke him. However, he did not give up, instead shouting, "Check the surveillance footage!"
Faced with Jiang Yichen's tough attitude, one of them mustered his courage and cautiously explained, "President Jiang, we didn't say anything. We just... reminded him not to be greedy and to be more discreet. But we didn't expect him to get so angry and run away."
Another person chimed in, "Yes, we were just telling the truth. Besides, you and President Lin have such a good relationship, and he's deliberately trying to curry favor with you, which we all find a bit hard to stand."
As the words fell, the voices of the group grew softer and softer, clearly intimidated by Jiang Yichen's increasingly grim expression, and dared not utter another word. Jiang Yichen's face darkened, his eyes narrowed, revealing a dangerous aura that seemed ready to erupt at any moment.
"You guys don't need to come tomorrow."
After he finished speaking, he went to check the surveillance footage to see where Gu Mo had gone.
Old Mo advised, "President Jiang, is it possible that Gu Mo has gone home?"
