Chapter 89: Woman Was the Trump Card (II)
Translator: Storm in a Teacup
Xu took another sip of tea and couldnât wait to see Zhou Xingyangâs choice.
Where did Zhou Xingyang go?
After stepping out of the door, that man thought for a moment and then went directly to Fang Qiuhuaâs wife!
Yes, he didnât go to Fang Qiuhua as the Shadow Guardian said, but went to Zhou Huan.
Zhou Huan was slightly surprised when she heard from her maid that Zhou Xingyang had come, but she still immediately asked him to go to the hall.
After Zhou Xingyang went in, he didnât hide anything. He told Zhou Huan that Xu talked with him earlier. Most importantly, he also told her those groundless words of Xuâs.
Zhou Huan was so surprised that her facial expression changed.
Zhou Xingyang hesitated for a moment and then said, âMadam, I didnât think of this earlier, but now⦠I decide to tell you.â
âWhatâs that?â Zhou Huan asked at once.
âMadam, itâs like this. The day before the young master disappeared, he asked me to buy some drunk shrimps for him. Madam, you know that Mr. Xu likes drunk shrimps best and he likes those made by the cook in the big restaurant in Shuanghua City. I guess that the young master wanted to eat that because he missed Mr. Xu. The next day, I bought the drunk shrimps for him, but⦠the young master went missing.â
According to Fang Qiuhua, his son was sent out to do some business that day.
However, if the young master really needed to go out, how could he know nothing about that in advance?
Zhou Huanâs face became a little gloomy. âSo you mean the young master didnât know he needed to go out in advance?â
Zhou Xingyang nodded. âYes, he didnât know that in advance.â
Zhou Huan kept silent for a while, and then waved. âAlright, I got it. You can leave.â
âYes.â Zhou Xingyang left.
One Shadow Guardian went to follow Zhou Xingyang earlier, so he got the news soon.
After coming back, the Shadow Guardian told Xu about that and Xu was extremely surprised. âWhat? He went to Zhou Huan?â
The Shadow Guardian smiled. âYes, Zhou Xingyang really has brains.â
Xu didnât understand. âWhy did you say that?â
The Shadow Guardian said with a smile, âFang Qiuhua is the leader here. Given his ident.i.ty, itâs very likely that heâll tell Zhou Xingyang to shut up and drive him away if Zhou Xingyang asks him about that. He may also use other means to hush him. But if Zhou Xingyang goes to talk with Zhou Huan, things will be different. Zhou Huan loves Fang Shuoyang very much. When she learns that his son may be imprisoned and thereâs something fishy about his sonâs disappearance, do you think she wonât go to talk to Fang Qiuhua? Itâll be better if she, instead of a subordinate, goes to talk with his husband.â
Xu nodded after hearing the words. âThatâs right. If a woman is involved in this, itâll absolutely be a headache and all people in Tianyin post will know this!â âRight,â the Shadow Guardian continued, âConsidering our presence and Zhou Huanâs ident.i.ty, no matter how far she goes, Fang Qiuhua dare not do anything to hurt her!â
âYes.â Xuâs eyes brightened, âBecause we are here.â
âRight.â The Shadow Guardian nodded.
Xu couldnât help but clap his hands happily. âThatâs good. Thereâll be a good show to for us to watch.â
There was indeed a good show then!
Although Zhou Huan appeared calm in front of Zhou Xingyang, she almost tore a handkerchief in anger after that man left!
No wonder these days, she always felt there was something strange about her sonâs disappearance!
Fang Qiuhua! Good! It was alright if you kept a mistress outside, but now, you even wanted to get rid of your own son?
Were you trying to bring that woman back home? Had that woman also had children with you?
Thinking of this, Zhou became so angry that she could even eat that b.a.s.t.a.r.d!
So she went directly to Fang Qiuhua.
Once she arrived at the place, she pounded the table in front of him.
âFang Qiuhua! Tell me! Are you hiding our son?â
Fangâs pupils shrank greatly. Then, he scolded, âWhat are you talking about? Where did you hear all that bulls.h.i.+t?â âFang Qiuhua!â Zhou was prepared before she came. When she was interrogating him earlier, she stared at his eyes. So, how could she ignore the little changes of his eyes?
At first, Zhou just thought that her sonâs disappearance might have something to do with her husband, but now, she was quite sure!
The changes of Fang Qiuhuaâs expressions could be concealed from outsiders, but since theyâd been husband and wife for decades, how could that be concealed from her?
So, Zhou was so sure! âGreat! Fang Qiuhua, are you still human? You kept a mistress outside. Iâm fine with that. But you canât even let go of your own son! Even a tiger will not eat its cubs. Are you still human?â
âZhou Guan!â Fang shouted angrily, âWeâve discussed this problem many times and Iâve already said that Iâm not having an affair!â
âReally? You just acquiesced in that some time ago and now youâre denying it? Fang Qiuhua, do you think Iâm stupid?â Zhou was furious.
Fangâs face turned livid with rage. âI didnât acquiesce in that. You just never listened to my explanation!â
Zhou pounded the table again in anger. âYouâre still denying it? Fang Qiuhua, let me tell you, I wonât talk about that woman. Give me my son back!â
âOur son is missing. Donât you know that Iâve sent many people to look for him every day?â Fang said.
âI donât believe it!â Zhou Huan roared.
Fang was wrathful. âBelieve it or not!â
Zhou directly jumped on him. âFang Qiuhua, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Give me my son back! Give me my son back!â
âYouâre crazy!â Fang grabbed Zhouâs hand and stopped her from beating him. âHow many times do I need to tell you that our son isnât in my hands!â
âFine, you wonât give him to me, will you? Iâll turn Tianyin post upside down today! I donât believe you wonât give him to me!â
After that, Zhou directly flung Fangâs hand and walked out.
Fangâs face was still livid and his teeth were gritted.
However, Zhou had already left. Once she returned to her room, she asked all her servants to search the fort.
When Xu heard the noises outside in the room, his eyes lit up immediately. âSo theyâve begun the show? Thatâs so fast.â
The Shadow Guardian said, âIâll tell Zhou Xingyang Fang Shuoyangâs location and ask him to find a way to let Zhou Huan go there.â
âBe careful not to be discovered.â
The Shadow Guardian smiled faintly. âDonât worry, Mr. Xu.â
Xu just said that in form. In fact, he was very confident about the Shadow Guardianâs ability.
So, Xu just went out to watch the show.
Of course, Xu didnât plan to do anything. He would just watch it!
A âhidden weaponâ hit Zhou Xingyang.
He caught the âhidden weaponâ and found it was actually a note.
Opening the note, he narrowed his eyes.
The next moment, he tore the paper into pieces.
Then, he walked into the crowd and approached a maid quietly. After whispering something, he left the crowd quietly again.
Then, the maid went to Zhou Huanâ¦
Zhou Huan told her servants to look for her son, but actually, they were doing it in a rather violent way.
She was also living in Tianyin post and she wasnât the kind of woman who didnât care about anything at home, so she knew several hiding places there.
After they checked two places, that maid naturally led all the people to the place where Fang Shuoyang was imprisoned.
Just then, Fang Qiuhua rushed there.
âWhen will you end all of this? Go back!â
Zhou Huan narrowed her eyes. âWhat did I do wrong? Iâm looking for my own son at my own place. Am I wrong?â
âOur son isnât here!â Fang gritted his teeth.
âIâll see for myself!â Zhou said that while going towards the room.
As Fang was about to stop her, Xu came over with a smile.
âOh? Whatâs the matter?â
Originally, Xu didnât want to appear. However, seeing that Fang would stop her, he thought he had to come.
Fang immediately turned his eyes to Xu.
Xu said with a smile, âMadam, what are you looking for?â
Zhou looked at Xu and said, âMy son.â
âWhat? Isnât he missing? How is he at home?â Xu seemed very surprised.
Zhou said, âI suspect that Shuoyang did something to anger his father, so he was locked up. My husband didnât let me know.â
âIs he in there?â Xu looked inside with expectation.
Zhou said, âWeâll see after checking the place.â
Fang said, âHoney! Stop messing around!â
Zhou got angry again. âYouâre messing around! Whatâs wrong with me looking for my son? I must find my son today!â
Zhou, regardless of the obstruction, took the lead and rushed inâ¦
Xu rolled his eyes and then hurriedly followed upâ¦
Fangâs face became livid with rage and one of his subordinates said with worry, âMaster.â
Fang pressed his lips. âShe wonât find the secret gear.â
His subordinate felt relieved that the young master had been transferred to the first floor underground last nightâ¦
Zhou went inside and frowned at the empty room. âHeâs not here. Keep searching.â
Xu also frowned. Why was he not here?
Just then, he saw something in the corner of the wall. Then, he exclaimed, âWhat is that?â
Zhou was just about to go out, but those words stunned her. âWhat?â
