Chapter 1618 - Loneliness Is When You’re Not By My Side (1)

“The phone you have dialed has been switched off…”

Mu Xiaoxiao gripped her phone as she stood frozen with an emotionless expression on her face.

“What happened? Could you get through?” Song Shijun asked, sticking his head out.

Mu Xiaoxiao’s exquisite face was sullen as she turned to look at him. She said helplessly, “His phone has been switched off. They might really be on a plane.”

“You can’t blame Ye Sijue and Xiaomeng.”

“What do we do then?” Mu Xiaoxiao looked like she was on the verge of tears.

Song Shijun raked a hand across his hair and said, “I’ll bring you around to look for him. I’ll get other people to search as well. We should be able to find him.”

So long as Yin Shaojie was still in City A.

Song Shijun was a little worried too. If Yin Shaojie was not in City A, they would really be looking for a needle in a haystack.

However, he thought that Yin Shaojie would never abandon Xiaoxiao on the day of her birthday given how much he doted on her. He would have to come out tonight.

However, he had not taken into account Mu Xiaoxiao’s desire to look for him. She simply could not wait until tonight. She had to explain everything to him so things could go back to the way they were before.

By chance, they came to a red right. Song Shijun stopped his car and made a call to mobilize his connections to find Yin Shaojie.

However, it would be difficult to locate Yin Shaojie if he did not want to be found given his skills.

At first, Song Shijun thought that the couple was simply bickering over something small and would reconcile soon.

However, after bringing Mu Xiaoxiao to several places, placing continuous calls to Yin Shaojie, and mobilizing people to search for him, there were still no leads on Yin Shaojie.

It was only then that Song Shijun realized that things had gone to sh*t.

Song Shijun noticed that it was no longer early and thus turned to Mu Xiaoxiao and said, “Xiaoxiao, should we go back? Yin Shaojie might already be home. Searching blindly without a lead isn’t the solution.”

Mu Xiaoxiao did not speak and looked out the window at the people outside.

Because school was out, more people gradually gathered on the streets. They were now bustling with activity as crowds of students talked and laughed as they walked.

Mu Xiaoxiao saw a girl and guy who looked like a couple. They were a little bashful, but they had an unconcealed sweetness about them as they drank from the same cup and ate the same things.

The guy was holding the girl’s hand and kissed it suddenly. Blushing, the girl hit the guy and protested coquettishly. Now, the atmosphere between them was even sweeter than before.

“Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao?” Someone was calling out to her and she became annoyed.

Mu Xiaoxiao turned around and glared at Song Shijun.

Song Shijun rubbed his nose. “Okay, let’s just continue searching then.”

He parked the car by the roadside.

“Xiaoxiao, you must be thirsty, right? I’ll go and get you some drinks. What do you want?”

Song Shijun’s stomach had long been rumbling with hunger. His gluttony was aroused as he saw students holding food and drinks as they walked along the streets.
