Chapter 1321: See You There!
“h.e.l.lo, Beibei.” The call was quickly picked up, and Gong Yi’s magnetic voice came through.
“h.e.l.lo, Gong Yi.” Bai Beibei smiled sweetly. “I have some good news for you.”
“Yes?” He seemed to be listening attentively.
“I’ve got the household register.”
Bai Beibei couldn’t wait to share this news with him.
However, as soon as she finished speaking, the person on the other end fell silent.
The smile on Bai Beibei’s face faded. Awkwardness filled up the air.
“Hey, Gong Yi, are you listening?” She asked carefully.
There was still no reaction from the other end.
Bai Beibei’s heart sank, and her mind ran wild.
He couldn’t have been joking that day, right?
“What are you thinking about?” The man on the other end suddenly spoke, his voice filled with joy.
Bai Beibei immediately understood. She was so angry that she stomped her feet on the ground. So he was just joking around with her. He had been listening to her all this time.
“Gong Yi, you’re too detestable!”
Gong Yi was overjoyed. Seeing her anxious and nervous for him made him feel extremely happy.
“Are you free now? I’ll go pick you up.”
“Where to?” Bai Beibei looked at the tips of her feet with a blushed face.
She actually kind of knew the answer…
“The Registry of Marriage, of course.” Gong Yi spat out three words.
Bai Beibei immediately smiled.
“I’ve checked the calendar. Today is an auspicious day. A perfect day to get married. Miss Beibei, are you willing to go with me? To the Registry?” Gong Yi asked seriously.
“Yes, yes!”
“I’ll go pick you up.”
“It’s ok. I’m near to the Registry of Marriage. It is just a stone’s throw away. You can drive directly there. I might even reach before you.”
“Okay, then I will see you there.”
“Yes, see you there!”
Bai Beibei sweetly kept her phone. She grabbed her household register and ident.i.ty card and set off for the Registry of Marriage.
…
As she was walking, she could not suppress the excitement in her heart. Whenever she thought of her getting married to Gong Yi, she felt like she was in a dream.
At this moment, a melodious ringtone rang. It was a call from her mother.
“h.e.l.lo, Mom.”
“h.e.l.lo, Beibei. Where are you now? Hurry up and come to me…”
Bai Beibei’s expression changed. “Mom, What’s wrong?”
“The Qian family came for trouble again today. Mom is in the coffee shop now. I’m not feeling well and I’m about to faint…”
“Beep, beep.” The call was cut off.
“Mom, mom! What’s wrong? Say something!”
There was no response from the other end. Bai Beibei was so nervous that her face turned pale. She hailed a taxi from the roadside and rushed to the coffee shop.
…
The coffee shop.
Bai Beibei ran in hurriedly and asked someone she randomly caught, “Where’s the Lady Boss?”
“She is in the office.”
“Thank you.” Bai Beibei raised her foot and ran.
She pushed open the office door and looked around nervously. “Mom, mom, where are you?”
The moment she entered, Bai Beibei sensed that something was wrong. The office was quiet, not a sound could be heard. Sun Xiaoxiao was not there.
What was going on?
Bai Beibei pushed open the restroom. The bed was neat and tidy. There were no signs of movement.
Where did her mother go?
She wanted to turn around, but she suddenly felt dizzy. Her legs went soft and she collapsed directly to the ground.
She sensed a male muscular arm wrapped around her slender waist. Then, she was carried into an unfamiliar embrace.
Her entire body was weak, and her head was dizzy. In a daze, she felt someone carrying her onto the bed.
A hand was unb.u.t.toning her clothes.
She was so in fear that she could not move a finger. She knew that she was going to be violated. “No… Please stop…” She tried to struggle and break free.
However, she didn’t even have the strength to clench her fists.
At this moment, her cell phone rang. It was a call from him.
Gong Yi…
Bai Beibei knew that it must be Gong Yi calling. He was probably already at the entrance of the Registry. He was waiting for her there, to get married.
However, she couldn’t go…
She tried so hard to get her cell phone, but someone has s.n.a.t.c.hed it away as soon as she had it. The phone call was declined as the ringtone disappeared.
She felt cold as her dress was taken off. A man pressed down on her body and spread her legs…
“Gong Yi… Gong Yi…”
As she called this name, hot tears rolled down from her eyes.
…
At the entrance of the Registry of Marriage.
Gong Yi heard a robotic female voice on the phone —— Sorry, the number you have dialed is turned off.
He frowned. Why was her phone switched off?
Was the battery dead?
Because her phone was switched off, he was unable to track her location. He checked his watch. It had only been ten minutes past the agreed time. He was thinking perhaps she was already on her way here, so he just needed to wait a little longer.
However, half an hour had pa.s.sed, and Bai Beibei was still not here.
The alarm in Gong Yi’s heart was ringing loudly, and he had a very bad feeling. He quickly dialed Li Sisi’s number.
“Sisi, are you with Beibei now?”
“No, she left a long time ago. Aren’t you two together?”
Gong Yi’s expression changed. He hung up and got into the car.
The Lamborghini was speeding on the road. His brain was working in a hurry. Where is Beibei? She had always been a good girl and wouldn’t stand someone up. Will she be in school? Or the villa, or… coffee shop?
The coffee shop was the one nearest to him. He turned the steering wheel and rushed there.
He did not know why she did not show up. It was probably because of Sun Xiaoxiao. His heart was in a mess. Anyway, he had to find her first.
Soon, the Lamborghini stopped outside the coffee shop.
Gong Yi walked into the shop quickly. “May I ask, is Bai Beibei here today?”
The waiter shook his head. “No, she didn’t come today.”
She didn’t come here?
Gong Yi looked around at the elegant coffee shop but didn’t leave immediately. He asked, “Where’s your Lady Boss? She didn’t come today either?”
“It’s not business hours yet. The Lady Boss hasn’t arrived yet, but she should be here soon.”
“Okay. I have something to ask her. Where’s her office? I’ll wait for her in her office.”
The waiter hesitated for a moment before pointing. “The office is there.”
“Thank you.”
…
At the office door, Gong Yi looked at the tightly shut door for a few seconds. Then, he reached out and opened the door.
The door opened a crack. Gong Yi peeked inside. It was very quiet inside. There was no one there, and he could not hear anything. He moved a little and wanted to walk in.
“Young Master Gong, why are you here?” Sun Xiaoxiao appeared.
Gong Yi turned back saw Sun Xiaoxiao. He smiled politely. “Auntie, h.e.l.lo. I made an appointment with Beibei, but she didn’t show up. And I couldn’t get through to her cell phone either. As I was worried about her, I came here to take a look and see if you have any news of her.”
