Chapter 562 - 567: Get out, I’ll drive.
Xiahou Chunyi came this time to handle the aftermath for Xing Chen.
Otherwise, if the fake wedding were to spread, it wouldn’t be good for Xing Chen.
Now that the government has stepped in to explain, hopefully, no one will dare to gossip behind his back any longer.
Moreover... at least Ran Xiangsi’s sacrifice might have some value now.
Xiahou Chunyi was very satisfied with the mayor’s arrangements, nodded, and left.
He needed to quickly go back and check where his troublesome brother had run off to again!
...
The awakened Xing Chen insisted on being discharged, Ping’an’s car was already waiting at the hospital entrance.
As soon as he got in the car, Xing Chen’s first question was, "Is there any news on the Young Madam?"
"No." Ping’an answered cautiously, instinctively watching his master’s expression, fearing he might erupt in rage again.
However, what Ping’an feared didn’t happen. He even realized that his master seemed to have returned to normal, his face indifferent and calm, showing none of the previous emotional outburts.
"Send another ship, recruit more search and rescue personnel, and expand the search area," Xing Chen opened his laptop and browsed the news headlines of the past few days carefully.
Almost all of them were about him, Ran Xiangsi, and Lou Xinyu.
"Yes, master." Ping’an swallowed hard.
"Has Fu Jingxuan and Falcon’s whereabouts been confirmed?" Xing Chen asked again, still browsing through the news.
He had missed a lot of interesting events while he was asleep.
"I’ve already assigned people to monitor them. They are currently in a villa on the outskirts of the city."
"Hmm, keep following them. Don’t alert them." Xing Chen’s low voice sounded as he closed his laptop and looked up at Ping’an, who was sitting in the driver’s seat.
His gaze was cold and contained hidden anger.
"Hand over your current work and prepare to leave for the Southern Federation tomorrow. The ranch in Scotland has been neglected for a long time."
Xing Chen spoke slowly, almost leisurely, yet it made Ping’an’s whole body tense up.
The ranch in Scotland... had been abandoned for many years.
Was master punishing him to live there?
It seemed the master had recovered from the sorrow of losing the Young Madam.
Ping’an had no complaints, after all, he was the one who had opened the door for Ding Jia at the time.
"Understood, master. I will hand over my work to Ping Le as soon as possible..."
"No need to hand it over to him. Shao Mangliang will take over your position." The abrupt voice came, still cool and gentle, yet chilling to the bones.
Ping’an suddenly felt a bit panicked... Master didn’t even want Ping Le anymore, didn’t want to see a face identical to his, right?
This time, master must be utterly disappointed with him.
Before Ping’an could continue to be lost in thought, Xing Chen’s voice reached his ears again.
"Get out, I’ll drive."
At the moment he heard that sentence, Ping’an’s heart shattered into pieces.
He nodded silently, opened the car door silently, and stood silently by the roadside.
And Xing Chen, without a second glance, moved from the back seat to the driver’s seat and drove away.
Watching master drive off into the distance, Ping’an sighed, his eyes full of darkness.
...
Xing Chen wanted to drive alone, for no other reason than to take a quiet look at the sea.
If Ping’an followed, it would quickly attract a whole bunch of people.
Some things, he still preferred to be done in peace.
