Qi Chao and Xie Zi spent the entire day searching for Chi Yu.
They scoured every place she frequented, yet she was nowhere to be found.
Qi Chao was on the verge of losing his mind, while Xie Zi, after running around like a headless fly, gradually calmed down.
No one understood Chi Yu's temperament better than Xie Zi.
She was far too intelligent to hastily conclude that Qi Chao had betrayed her simply because he and Ren Yanya, a woman who had nothing to do with him, were found in the same bed.
Moreover, Xie Zi recalled something—just a short while ago, when she and Chi Yu were having coffee, they had overheard Mo Ru and Ren Jiao conspiring against Qi Chao, plotting something identical to today's scenario.
She relayed this to Qi Chao, who, upon hearing it, remained silent over the phone for a long time.
To Xie Zi's surprise, his voice was eerily calm when he finally responded with a simple, "I see," before hanging up.
