Chapter 163: Qi Chao is Right Beside Her

Chi Yu had originally intended to slip away during the moment when everyone around her had been dismissed and take another look at the gardens.

However, as soon as she descended the stairs, she received a call from Yan Ling.

"I didn't find Xie Zi, but I found a broken phone that appears to be hers."

Chi Yu had merely sent Yan Ling to look for Xie Zi to get him out of the way, but she hadn't expected Xie Zi to actually be absent from the banquet hall.

Thinking back, it had been over an hour since she had last seen Xie Zi…

Chi Yu's heart sank slightly. She asked Yan Ling, "Where are you?"

"In the lounge area."

Chi Yu went over and found Yan Ling rising from a sofa. He handed her the phone and pointed to a corner.

"I found the phone there."

The phone's screen was shattered. Chi Yu pressed the power button but discovered it wouldn't turn on.
