“Nothing much.” The staff said, “President Xiao instructed the finance department to give everyone N+6 compensation. We’re all waiting to receive it now.”
For a normal company dismissing employees, N+1 is already considered conscientious. Companies that offer N+2 are rare. Xiao Churan giving N+6 means an extra five months’ salary for each person, which is no small amount. It shows she must feel guilty towards the employees, hence the high compensation.
The company was running well, and she was very enthusiastic about it. Why suddenly quit? And from start to finish, she hadn’t mentioned it to him, and now she couldn’t even be contacted…
Ye Chen suddenly had an extremely bad premonition in his heart.
He felt that Xiao Churan hadn’t encountered an accident or danger, but had planned all this in advance!
With this thought, his heart was in utter chaos. He really wanted to go home and check if Xiao Churan was there, and if not, whether she had taken her things from home. But he was currently in Australia. Even if he chartered a plane immediately, it would take at least a dozen hours to get back to Jinling.
So, the first solution that came to his mind was to ask Ito Nanako for help.
Although Nanako spent most of her time cultivating at the Champs-Élysées Hot Spring Hotel, her father Ito Yuhiko lived in the flat at Tomson Yipin. She might be at Tomson Yipin right now. Asking her to check the house would provide the quickest answer.
Although Liu Manqiong also lived at Tomson Yipin, their relationship wasn’t as close, and Liu Manqiong had no martial skills. Sneaking into his home quietly might be beyond her ability. Nanako was different; she was a martial arts expert who had successfully enlightened herself, greatly increasing her strength. This task would be effortless for her.
So, he immediately thought of calling Nanako, but after thinking it over, he chose to send a WeChat message instead. His wife had suddenly disappeared in a premeditated and planned manner, and he had been unaware from beginning to end. He didn’t want Hong Wu and Chen Zekai to know about this.
He then immediately sent Nanako a text WeChat message. “Nanako, are you at Tomson Yipin?”
Nanako replied quickly. “I am. Otousan asked me to come back to have dinner with him. What’s wrong, Ye Chen-kun? Are you at Tomson Yipin too?”
Ye Chen replied, “I’m in Australia. Nanako, there’s something I need your help with. Please keep it confidential for me.”
Nanako immediately responded, “Ye Chen-kun, just tell me. I definitely won’t tell anyone, not even Otousan.”
Ye Chen felt slightly relieved and said, “Please sneak into my house quietly and check the situation there.”
Nanako sent a tense emoji and asked, “Ye Chen-kun, has something happened at home?!”
Ye Chen said, “My wife and my in-laws have all disappeared. I want you to go home and see if they’re there. If they are, protect them secretly without letting them notice. If not, check for any abnormalities in the house!”
“Okay! I’ll go right now!”
Nanako didn’t know what exactly had happened at Ye Chen’s home. She thought it was his enemies targeting his family. So, she quickly put down her chopsticks and said to her father Ito Yuhiko, “Otousan, enjoy your meal slowly. I need to go out and handle something.”
Ito Yuhiko pointed at the sashimi on the table and said, “Nanako, this is the best bluefin tuna belly of the year. If not eaten soon after thawing, it won’t be fresh anymore!”
“It’s fine, Father.” Nanako stood up and said urgently, “Ye Chen-kun needs me for something. I must go immediately.”
Ito Yuhiko then realised and quickly said, “Since it’s Mr. Ye who needs you, hurry and go.”
