บท 14: Lost

That night, after Yan Si left the office, he called Xu Lan, but the call could not get through.
On the way to the hotel restaurant, his eyelids twitched.
"Yan Jiang, to Ya Jie Technology."
He frowned and his expression darkened.
The driver turned around and accelerated toward Ya Jie Technology.
When he arrived, he was just in time to see people knock off at the office building.
As soon as Yan Si got out of the car, he attracted the attention of many people.
He was tall and handsome, and his temperament was especially cold and noble. He was simply God's favorite.
In the top-floor office, he had just gone up when Sang Ye packed his things and was about to go downstairs. They met in the corridor.
"Where is she?"
Sang Ye did not understand his question.
"Who are you looking for?"
Yan Si's expression did not look good. He said directly, "Xu Lan."
Sang Ye was surprised.
"She didn't come to the office today."
Not only did she not come today, she never came at all!
"Do you know where she is? Why can't I get through to her?"
"I don't know."
Sang Ye shrugged his shoulders, as if he did not want to tell him even if he knew.
Yan Si glanced at him and did not waste any more time here. He turned around and strode towards the elevator.
On the way, he still could not get through, so he could only go to the hotel restaurant.
When he arrived, his parents and the Xu Family were both there. This time, because he had volunteered to be engaged, many relatives from both families had come.
The hundred square meters room was extremely noisy.
As he approached, the voices became softer.
Since they were all elders, he could not say anything and went straight to his parents.
The parents of the Yan Family were talking to the Xu Family's parents when Yan Si saw Xu Yan, who was dressed up beautifully.
He glanced at her coldly.
"Where's Xu Lan?"
As he inquired, his eyes searched the scene.
Father Yan was a little puzzled. Why would he ask that?
Xu Yan said, "Sister might have been delayed by something else. Why don't we sit down first? After all, we have so many relatives."
Both parents felt that it made sense and sat down.
The hotel manager called out to the music group that had been waiting in the morning and they started playing as well.
Everyone waited for 10 minutes, but Xu Lan, the female lead, still did not appear. They began to discuss among themselves.
Mother Yan glanced at her son. He was looking down at his phone and calling a number from time to time. That rare anxiety surprised her.
Ever since he became an adult, he had rarely been nervous about anyone or anything. Now, for Xu Lan, it was simply unlike him.
"Mom, is Sister going to meet Sang Ye? Why must she go at such a crucial point?"
Just as she was speaking to Mother Xu in a low voice, the table and chairs in front of her suddenly let out a loud 'bang' and moved towards her. If she had not gotten up quickly to dodge it, she would have been injured.
She immediately shut her mouth. When she looked up, she saw the man's handsome face opposite her looking sinister and scary.
Because the commotion was too loud, it attracted the attention of the relatives on both sides. Even the music stopped instantly.
The next second, he stood up from his seat and walked out with a cold face.
After a while, he came back. He still looked terrible.
The others looked at him but found it difficult to ask what was wrong.
In the end, Father Yan asked softly, "What happened?"
Yan Si was impatient. He leaned back in his chair and heaved a loud sigh.
"I've lost her."
Everyone looked at each other.
Time passed by slowly. He checked his phone from time to time, but there was no call from his subordinate.
Fortunately, there was music and champagne at the venue. The two families were peaceful and there was no disturbance. Xu Yan, who was sitting beside Li Meixiang, was elegant and beautiful. Her ambiguous gaze would sneak glances in the direction of Yan Si from time to time.
Everyone knew that Yan Si was not in a good mood, so no one dared to provoke him. There were even some who could tell that something had happened and did not have the courage to suggest leaving early.
On the other hand, Second Uncle asked, "What happened?"
Yan Si gave him an unfriendly glance and went out with his phone.
But just as he reached the door, a call came.
The moment the call connected, his expression turned even uglier and his footsteps became even more hurried.
