Chapter 276: Searching Frantically

Machine Translation

When Sha Zhixing saw him, her heart suddenly felt sour. There was something sparkling in her eyes, but she held it back.

"Master, am I embarrassing you?" Her voice sounded particularly hoarse, and her eyes were misty, as if there was a thin layer of gauze around them.

Shi Qinuo looked at her steadily, and walked step by step to her side. He pressed her head against his chest and answered her two words very decisively, "No."

"But..." Sha Zhixing's voice became choked with sobs as she thought of the result today. "Everyone in Rong Xi saw that Shi Qinuo's only disciple was fired today!"

Shi Qinuo was silent for a moment after her words. He raised his hand stiffly and patted her thin shoulder. He comforted her gently. "It's okay. That can only mean that they don't have good taste."

Sha Zhixing just stared blankly ahead. Her body was stiff and cold. She didn't know if she had listened to his words.

Shi Qinuo's family background was outstanding. The people around him had always been respectful and flattering to him since he was young. Such an environment had resulted in his aloof and arrogant personality. He had never comforted anyone before. Today was the first time.

However, there weren't many words of comfort, and he didn't know how to make her forget about this matter. Thinking that she might not have eaten yet, he finally brought her to a French restaurant.

He ordered a lot of dishes. He didn't know what she liked, so he just randomly ordered. What he didn't know was that he accidentally ordered a lot of things that she liked.

However, Sha Zhixing only tasted a little before putting down the cutlery.

Shi Qinuo knew that she wasn't in the mood, so he hastily finished his portion and helped her pack a few snacks. He wanted to send her home, but Sha Zhixing smiled at him, telling him not to bother.

Her smile was very faint. No matter how he looked at it, it was very stiff and a little bitter.

Shi Qinuo knew that she must be very depressed right now, but when he thought about how optimistic she was usually, she probably wouldn't do anything stupid for this kind of thing. And when he was in a bad mood, his usual way of handling things was to keep all unrelated people away from him.

According to his way of handling things, Shi Qinuo felt that it might be better to leave her alone, so he didn't continue to follow her.

He helped her hail a taxi, talked to the driver, and then turned around to head towards his hotel.

However, he did not hear anything from Sha Zhixing for the next three days.

Sha Zhixing had gone missing. No matter how hard he tried to call her, no one picked up. Rong Xi had gone as well. No one knew where she was.

Luo Xichen returned to China early after receiving the news. He searched everywhere like a madman. Almost half of the city had been destroyed, but there was still no result.

After asking An Xin and Sha Nanfeng, Sha Zhixing did not tell them that she had left Rong Xi. She only said that she would not be back for a few days and did not tell them where she had gone.

He made countless calls on her phone, but all of them were turned off.

Luo Xichen even used his connections to check the immigration center, but he did not get any information about her going abroad.

If she did not go abroad, then she must still be in China.

He stood in front of the window of his room and looked at the falling petals of the magnolia. He frowned and quietly thought of all the places she might have gone to. When a certain place flashed through his mind, his eyes suddenly lit up and he turned around. He ran downstairs...
