Addicted to Love, Mr. Fu’s Newly Married Wife

"What's going on?" Fu Yanchen frowned slightly, his voice was low but carried a force that could not be ignored. He was indeed very capable, and he quickly suppressed the sudden disturbance in the store temporarily. He waved his hand to signal the onlookers to disperse, and restored the tranquility in the store.

"Sister Na, don't you pay Xiaomei for the purchases every day? What... is going on?"

Xu Xiaoxiao looked confused, with a puzzled light flashing in her clear eyes.

She was indeed busy with other matters during this period, and she thought that the old employees in the store could do their jobs and nothing would go wrong, but she did not expect such an accident to happen.

When Sister Na heard this, her face changed slightly, and she twisted her hands together unconsciously, looking a little anxious.

"Yes, Weiwei and I counted them and handed them to her personally. The ingredients for cooking were also delivered on time. We never doubted it..."

Her voice became smaller and smaller, and it was obvious that she was also full of doubts and uneasiness. They were careless at that time. If they couldn't get back so much money, then...

Fu Yanchen looked around. Everything in the store seemed to be immersed in a depressing atmosphere; even the air became heavy.

His eyes were deep, as if he was thinking about something, then he sighed softly and said, "Xiaoxiao, it's been a month, and you haven't contacted anyone once?"

Xu Xiaoxiao shook her head. "Xiaomei has been with me for four years. She is an old employee. I..."

Fu Yanchen held his forehead with his hand, why is she so naive?

"Sister Na... Contact Xiaomei right now and confirm where she is. Didn't she ask for leave to go home? Contact their local village committee first. Remember, don't let her know about this yet. Once you know where she is, tell me immediately."

"Okay, Mr. Fu." Sister Na nodded, turned around and left quickly, thinking to herself that she hoped this was just a misunderstanding. After all, they had worked together for many years, and the trust between them could not be broken just by talking about it.

Fu Yanchen looked at Xu Xiaoxiao, a complex emotion welling up in his heart.

He wanted to scold her, remind her that one should not be so innocent and should not trust others so easily, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.

He saw Xu Xiaoxiao's furrowed brows and felt sorry for her, knowing that she was feeling worse than anyone else at the moment.

Forget it. This incident should be a profound lesson for her. She will be more cautious in the future.

“If this money cannot be recovered, will it affect your working capital?”

Fu Yanchen's voice was gentle and concerned. He hoped that through this question, Xu Xiaoxiao would realize the seriousness of the problem. He also hoped that she could be prepared to deal with possible difficulties.

"Not really, but it's not a small amount of money, and I hate this kind of behavior."

Xu Xiaoxiao shook her head gently, with a hint of determination and dissatisfaction in her voice.

Although she was worried about the possible loss, she was more angry about the betrayal.

"Then...Xiaoxiao, if this matter has something to do with Xiaomei, will you hand her over to the police?"

There was a hint of tentativeness in Fu Yanchen's tone. He wanted to know whether Xu Xiaoxiao could make a decisive decision when faced with such betrayal. After all, she was now half a businessman. He wondered if she had the hatred that a businessman should have.

Xu Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment, and her expression became complicated.

"I... don't know, but there is one thing, I must find out why she did this?"

Her voice was full of confusion and bewilderment. Obviously, she wanted to know the reasons behind it rather than simply punishing him.

Fu Yanchen sighed. He understood Xu Xiaoxiao's feelings, but at the same time he was worried about her.

"Xiaoxiao, you'll never achieve anything big like this. You're too... soft-hearted!"

There was a hint of helplessness and exhortation in his tone. He hoped that Xu Xiaoxiao could become stronger and more decisive to cope with more challenges that might be encountered in the future.

"Fu Yanchen, I can't learn your ruthlessness. I don't want to beat someone to death with a stick."

Xu Xiaoxiao's eyes were firm, and her tone was full of determination. "Before I know the truth, I don't want to wrongly accuse anyone. I will not inflict the pain I have endured on others. Do you understand?"

Her words revealed the deep scars of being wronged and imprisoned, which was an eternal pain in her heart.

She didn't want others to experience that kind of dark and gloomy life.

Upon hearing this, Fu Yanchen frowned and remained silent for a moment.

He knew that this matter would always be a gap between him and Xu Xiaoxiao, and he would never be able to cross it. He understood Xu Xiaoxiao's feelings and respected her decision.

"Xiaoxiao, I didn't ask you to call the police immediately. I just asked, if she really took the money, what would you do?"

Fu Yanchen's voice was gentle and low. He tried to guide Xu Xiaoxiao to think about the other side of the problem. At the same time, he also wanted to know how she would make a choice when faced with this situation.

"Let's talk about it after we get in touch with that person!" Xu Xiaoxiao said softly, the conflict in her heart surging like a tide.

If it was really Xiaomei who did it, I'm afraid she won't be able to be contacted for a while. Even if she is contacted, she doesn't know what to do.

Should she choose to forgive her? Or let her accept the punishment of the law? These questions circled in her mind, making her feel extremely troubled.

Forget it, let’s find the person first!

Over there, after some effort, Sister Na finally contacted Xiaomei.

It turned out that Xiaomei received a call and learned that her grandmother was sick. She was extremely worried and hurried back to the countryside.

It was difficult to contact her due to poor signal in the countryside.

After learning the news, Fu Yanchen quickly found Xiaomei's specific location through positioning.

Xu Xiaoxiao decided to go to the countryside in person, and Fu Yanchen decided to accompany her because he was worried about her safety.

As the two drove to the countryside, the scenery outside the car window passed by quickly, but Xu Xiaoxiao's mood was just like the speeding scenery, unable to calm down.

She kept thinking, if Xiaomei really betrayed her, how would she face it? Angry? Disappointed? Sad?

Fu Yanchen silently observed Xu Xiaoxiao from the side. He could feel her inner struggle and conflict.

He gently rubbed Xu Xiaoxiao's head, trying to give her some comfort and strength. This time Xu Xiaoxiao didn't say anything, probably because she was not thinking about it!

Fu Yanchen knew that no matter what the outcome was, he would be by her side and face it all together.

"If we can contact her, it can't be her." Fu Yanchen's tone was certain, "If it was really her, she would have hidden herself a long time ago. But this matter must be related to her."

His analysis was calm and objective, trying to logically deduce the truth of the matter.

Xu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but feel helpless after hearing this: "What you said is just nonsense. It must have something to do with her! The money was all spent in her hands. If it's not related to her, then who else could it be related to? But I don't understand who made her willingly hand over the money?"

His voice was full of confusion and puzzlement, and he was obviously troubled by this problem. Upon hearing this, Fu Yanchen sighed softly.

He knew the contradictions and struggles in Xu Xiaoxiao's heart, and understood her doubts about human nature.

He was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke: "Xiaoxiao, sometimes people are driven by various emotions and interests to do things that go against common sense. Maybe Xiaomei was also driven by some reason we don't know to do such a thing. But no matter what, we need to find her and find out the truth of the matter."

Xu Xiaoxiao nodded in agreement. Now the only way to solve the mystery and get answers to her doubts was to find Xiaomei.
