Chapter 176: 176 Walk with Me _1

I hastily rushed out from the company’s main entrance, running straight into the street.

Stopping a middle-aged woman,

“Mrs. Ma, please wait!”

She was haggard, her face streaked with tears, devoid of any energy, as if she had suffered a massive setback.

“Mrs. Ma, I just heard that Driver Ma is missing, is that true?”

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Ma nearly broke down on the spot, stuttering to tell me about the events of the past few days.

“Old Ma is nowhere to be found, he hasn’t been home for many days. I can’t find him anywhere, he doesn’t answer calls, he doesn’t reply to texts.”

“How many days exactly?”

“I haven’t seen him for three or four days!”

“What about his friends? Have you asked them, did you guys have a fight?”

“We didn’t fight, he just disappeared without reason. Although, once or twice while he was smoking on the balcony, he said to me that someone in the company is out to get him. He was afraid he might lose his job. I even comforted him at the time, telling him there are many laid-off workers, that we could figure things out together and that he should not be disheartened. That’s why I’ve been coming to the company, I want to know who’s out to get him.”

“Mrs. Ma, we haven’t heard anything about firing him from the company side, it might be a misunderstanding. You should go home for now, see if his other friends can help look for him. I’ll also try to see what we can do from our end, if all else fails, we can notify the police. I’ll contact you as soon as I have news.”

“Alright, thank you! Miss Song, you’re much kinder than the other colleagues, please help find him. Without him, our family will fall apart.”

Looking at the grieving Mrs. Ma, my mood was not much better.

After a few words of comfort, I was not sure if I could really help find Old Ma.

In the afternoon,

Unexpectedly, Ding Yinuo stormed into my company while I was at work.

At that time, I was preparing for an afternoon meeting.

When he hurried in, he was followed by the receptionist.

“Miss Song, this gentleman didn’t make an appointment, but he insisted on getting in.”

“Oh, it’s fine, he’s my friend!”

I waved my hand and the receptionist withdrew.

I immediately closed the office door and anxiously looked at him.

“Ding Yinuo, why did you come to my company? I’m at work now!”

I was indeed a little flustered.

Ding Yinuo didn’t answer me but held me tightly in his arms.

His intense emotions, as if he was going to lose me the next second.

“Ding Yinuo, what’s wrong with you?”

This place was definitely not suitable for Ding Yinuo to be here.

If Gu Yuanzhou were to catch sight of us, it would cause a huge problem.

Despite my struggle, I couldn’t escape his embrace and had to let him be.

A few minutes later, he let go of me,

“Hurry up and pack up, come with me!”

I gently pushed him away, sitting down on the swivel chair,

“Where to?”

“Resign! The world is big, you don’t have to stay at Zhenyi Company!”

“Suddenly rushing over in broad daylight and asking me to resign, you have to give me a reason, right?”

Ding Yinuo slowly reached into his pocket and took out his phone,

“I’ve sent you several messages and called you several times, but you didn’t answer! Do you still remember what you promised me?”

Then it dawned on me, my fingers pressing against my temples.

Thinking hard about what I did in the morning,

“I’m sorry, it’s my fault, I ignored you! To be precise, I disregarded my phone. I spent the whole morning investigating Driver Ma, I reported him missing to the police, went to the place where Old Ma used to buy lottery tickets to gather information, my phone ran out of battery, and I didn’t have time to recharge it. Yinuo, I know I promised you, but the situation is special right now.”

“That’s why I’m asking you to leave!”

“But, Old Ma is missing, I have to find him!”

Ding Yinuo came up to me, his hands straightening my slightly crooked collar, his eyes looking at me with warmth.

“This is the reason, you won’t be able to find Old Ma.”

“How do you know I can’t find him?”

From his deep emotion in his eyes, I sensed a hint of danger.

Ding Yinuo looked at me for a long time before calmly stating four words, “Old Ma is dead!”

“How is that possible?”

I was utterly shocked.

Then, Ding Yinuo took out his phone and showed me a news headline just published.

It was an announcement from the police: a man’s body was found near the Yun River at nine o’clock the night before last. According to the coroner, the man had drowned, and his time of death was about four days ago

Inside the man’s wallet was a driver’s license, it was Old Ma who we have been searching for.

My mental defenses instantly crumbled.

Going by this timeline, Old Ma had drowned on the third day of my negotiations with Gu Yuanzhou.

Old Ma was a key witness.

With his death, this crucial chain of evidence was broken.

It was now almost impossible to convict Ye Mengyan.

Coming to my senses, I was outraged.

“He did it!”

I turned around and was about to storm out of the office, but Ding Yinuo held me back from behind, “I knew you’d react like this, Ayun, don’t be impulsive, leave with me.”

“Ding Yinuo, let me go!”

“No!”

He was stubbornly resolute, not willing to let go no matter how much I struggled.

I was extremely annoyed, so I opened my mouth and bit down on the back of his hand.

I initially thought he would let go due to the pain, but, unexpectedly, even when my mouth was filled with a strong taste of blood, he still did not let go.

I didn’t dare to bite any further, I let go of my mouth, and there was already a circle of bloody bite mark on the back of his hand.

“Ding Yinuo, why are you so annoying! My business is none of your business, why are you obstructing me.”

“If you can beat him, I can let you go. But clearly, you can’t beat him.”

Even though Ding Yinuo’s words weren’t pleasing, they were the truth.

This company still belonged to Gu Yuanzhou, he was the boss here, he made the decisions, I couldn’t win against him.

I hit the table with a fist out of anger, “So we’re just going to let Old Ma’s death go like this?”

“Ayun, leave with me now, I have a way!”

“Then tell me now! What’s your plan?”

“Ayun, you’re not in a rational state right now, you wouldn’t listen to anything I say. I promise you, just leave the company with me and I’ll tell you the plan, I have many friends, I have resources   ”

“Okay!”

At the moment, I didn’t have a plan either, nor did I want to be controlled by my emotions.

Maybe Ding Yinuo was right, I must leave this place first

I gathered my things, followed Ding Yinuo out of the office, and ran into Gu Yuanzhou.
