Chapter 365: My Mommy is Missing
âHello⦠I⦠My woman is missing,â a milky voice said with a sob.
It was Baby Chiâs voice!
Li Beijue suddenly stood up and walked to the window, âWhat happened? Donât panic, take your time and tell me.â
âItâs already 9:30, and she hasnât come home yet. I called her, and her mobile phone is switched off⦠She has never switched off her phone beforeâ¦â What was most important was that he felt an inexplicable sense of unease inside him. As if his woman had really gotten into trouble. Baby Chi didnât know who else to turn to and, in desperation, could only think of The Neighbor Old Wang.
Li Beijue thought that Chi Enen was still at the hospital with Han Qifeng, and her phone had probably run out of battery. He pursed his thin lips, comforted Baby Chi with a few words, and hung up the phone.
Then he dialed Huo Yiâs number, âCheck if Chi Enen is still at City Hospital, if she is, send her home.â
âOkay.â
It wasnât long after he hung up.
Huo Yiâs call came back, âMaster Jue, Iâve checked, Miss Chi isnât at City Hospital. The nurses at City Hospital say that Miss Chi left the hospital over an hour ago.â
âWhat did you say?!â
Chi Enen wasnât at City Hospital, and she had left over an hour ago.
Damn it!
His first reaction was that Chi Enen had run away.
After all, she had a record of doing that five years ago.
But soon, he realized something was wrong!
No, with Baby Chi at home, even if Chi Enen had argued with him, she absolutely wouldnât have left on her own!
There was only one possibility leftâ¦
Li Beijueâs face turned livid, he clenched his fist and punched the wall. He bellowed, âSearch! Get the hospitalâs surrounding surveillance footage now! I want her found, even if we have to turn the sky upside down!â
âYes, Master Jue.â
Huo Yi also realized the gravity of the situation and hung up without wasting more words.
Inside the villa.
Li Beijue gripped his phone tightly, turned back, and quickly walked to the sofa to grab his coat that was draped over it before leaving.
Seeing his grim expression, Si Chen asked worriedly, âWhat happened?â
âChi Enen is missing,â Li Beijue replied, looking extremely troubled.
Si Chen hadnât expected the issue to be so serious. He said anxiously, âHow could Enen go missing?â
âCould she be upset from a quarrel with you and found a quiet place to cool off? Or maybe, she went out to drink water and chat with a friend?â
To drink water and chat with a friendâ¦
That seemed like a possibility to Li Beijue. He picked up his phone again and called Huo Yi, asking him to check if Qin Nan was with her.
After hanging up, he pressed his thin lips tightly together, âI need to get going. You guys enjoy yourselves.â
âSure, call if you need help,â Si Chen replied, not forgetting that there was a child at his home and didnât hold him back any longer.
Huo Leiting also stood up to say, âBeijue, just let me know if you need a hand.â
Li Beijue glanced at them, grunted in acknowledgement, and with his long legs, quickly leftâ¦

In Yahe Community.
Baby Chi heard the sound of the door opening and ran over in his big slippers, in a hurry. But when the door opened, it wasnât Chi Enen who came in, but Li Beijue.
His eyes dimmed, and upon seeing Li Beijue, his eyes immediately reddened. Sobbing in his milky voice, he suddenly burst into tears, âMy mommy is missing⦠wuuu⦠what should I do⦠my mommy is missingâ¦â
He usually acted all proud and arrogant like a little adult, and even when his teachers called his parents, he was extremely calm. Now, crying out loud, he finally looked like a five-year-old child should.
