Chapter 1605: Chapter 1603: Past Lives and Present Life 41

Chapter 1603

Autumn has passed and winter has come.

The anxiety and depression in Zhao Junyao’s heart did not fade much with time.

On the contrary, that empty feeling in his heart remained and intensified.

Clearly, she had told him not to contact her anymore.

Yet Zhao Junyao couldn’t resist and finally went to her small residence on a snowy day.

It had been days since they last saw each other.

He had imagined many scenarios for the reunion, but he never expected.

When he braved the snow to arrive, the small rented room was already vacated.

Even her two close friends were nowhere to be found.

Standing under the bare plane tree, gazing at the dark window upstairs, Zhao Junyao’s emotions seemed to fall into a black hole.

Confusion, emptiness, heartache, and even short breaths.

This feeling was like someone had taken a knife and gouged out a piece of his heart.

It was too difficult to endure.

Zhao Junyao looked somewhat pale.

The northern wind hurled snow particles at his face, yet he felt no pain, compared to the vast emptiness inside, what did it matter?

After standing for half a day, just when he thought he’d turn into an icicle,

finally, a familiar neighbor aunt came out.

“Oh? Are you looking for those three girls?”

Having lived here before, the aunt recognized him at a glance.

Zhao Junyao forced a smile and nodded.

“Do you know where they went?”

His voice trembled slightly, sounding unfamiliar to his ears.

In his past life of several decades, his voice had never been so hoarse and weary.

Even he couldn’t understand why?!

For a woman he’d only known for a few months, was it worth it?

“Oh, you’re late!”

“The three of them moved a long time ago, as for where they went…”

The aunt furrowed her brows and thought for a while, then suddenly brightened up.

“I actually don’t know, but once when they came back to get something, I overheard!”

“It seems to be a place close to the subway station, called… Blue Sky Community?”

“I’m not sure if it’s right, but you better hurry if you want to find them!”

“They might move again any day, and you’ll never find them!”

Grateful for these clues, Zhao Junyao thanked the aunt repeatedly as he watched her back.

The aunt laughed warmly.

“You young ones!”

“One disagreement and you ignore each other. I’ve been through this as an aunt!”

“Hurry and chase after her, coax her a little, then everything will be fine, no problem is insurmountable!”

Without waiting for Zhao Junyao to say more,

she brushed off the snow and went inside.

Zhao Junyao thanked her repeatedly, then quickly went out with his assistant to start looking.

…

The new assistant felt immense pressure.

With just these two pieces of information, finding someone wasn’t easy.

But… not searching wasn’t an option.

“Young Director! There’s no Blue Sky Community in this city, let alone near a subway station!”

“But there is a Lantian Garden and a Landian Mansion, both are near subway stations!”

By name, these two are the closest.

Zhao Junyao’s eyes lit up.

“Great!”

“Let’s start with these two!”

“Let’s go now!”

The assistant wanted to advise against it, but ultimately said nothing.

Actually, he didn’t really understand.

The Young Director was clearly getting married to Miss Shih after the New Year, why was he still desperately searching for another woman?

But… affairs among the wealthy seldom make sense, for the sake of keeping his job, he chose to remain silent.

The driver put the pedal to the metal, the car started, heading first to those two communities in order.

…

On this trip, Zhao Junyao brought nothing besides the driver and assistant.

But this didn’t stop him from staying away for two days and nights.

Wanxin, upon hearing the news, was very shocked.

“Where did Ah Yao go?”

“He promised to accompany me to check wedding arrangements in these few days?”

“Why can’t I ever find him!”

Their wedding date was set not long ago, something she had longed for.

She was only one step away from becoming the Young Director’s Wife of the Zhao Family, she wouldn’t allow anyone to disrupt at this time.

But why had Ah Yao started staying away from home again, even spending nights out?

Could it be… he found another woman?

Having just chased off Xia Ruqing, who was it this time?

She held onto the door frame tightly, unaware that her newly done nails broke.

…

Returning to her room, Wanxin grew more furious, she decided to call a few of her male assistants.

“Didn’t you install tracking and surveillance in Ah Yao’s car?”

“I need to know where he is now, and who he’s with!”

The answer on the other end seemed to satisfy her.

Her expression relaxed slightly, then she nodded and ended the call.

Exactly.

To ensure she smoothly enters the Zhao Family, and to keep Ah Yao from being swayed by other women,

she had installed tracking and surveillance in Zhao Junyao’s car.

It wasn’t something she wanted to use.

But since Ah Yao had started staying out, he couldn’t blame her.

After half a minute, her phone rang ding ding.

She swiped open the phone, and the message list detailed Zhao Junyao’s movements.

Lantian Garden? Landian Mansion?

Her brows furrowed, perplexed.

“Why did Ah Yao go there?”

“And spent a night in each place!”

“Could it be…” he has two mistresses?

Wanxin was somewhat distressed.

“Impossible!”

“Ah Yao isn’t that kind of person! I believe he won’t do such a thing!”

It’s always just him and the assistant in the car, isn’t it?

But most of the time, he wasn’t in the car!

Wanxin became more anxious, finally deciding to visit these two places personally.

Actually, she wasn’t that free.

But with matters concerning her family and fiancé, she wasn’t about to back down.

Those women are greedy and would do anything for money.

…

Wanxin couldn’t wait any longer, drove to visit the two places thoroughly.

After searching for most of the day, she finally found Ah Yao’s car by the roadside.

However, no one was in the car, and Zhao Junyao was nowhere in sight.

“Where exactly did he go?”

The surveillance sent by the assistant showed the car was also empty.

Feeling helpless, Wanxin observed this dilapidated community.

The answer she was reluctant to acknowledge gradually surfaced.

“Could it be…”

“He’s looking for that woman again!”

Earlier, she had heard from the assistant that the woman had moved out from the old place.

The new home’s location wasn’t known, but it was said she moved to the city center.

This time, could Ah Yao be pursuing her again!

Damn it, what was so special about that woman that she held such a grip on Ah Yao.

Was it just because of her life-saving grace?

But, what counts as life-saving grace?

The medical expenses were fully repaid, and an extra five hundred thousand in gratitude was given.
