Mr.CEO Looks Exactly the Same as My Son!-Chapter 823: If She Hadn’t Disappeared, She Would Have Been Your Fiancée

"I didn’t even have time to say ’sorry,’ when Shaoyu suddenly bent down, grabbed the tissue box on the table, and hurled it at me without hesitation. Fortunately, I noticed it beforehand and dodged to the side at the last moment to avoid being hit...

Regaining my composure, I turned to look at the instigator of all this and frowned slightly, "Five years without seeing each other, is this how you treat your guests?" 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Shaoyu raised his eyebrows slightly, ignored what I said, put down what he was holding, stood up, "Come to the study, I have something to tell you." With that, he walked away.

"Miss Lan, consider what I said earlier, I’ll go have a look." With those words, I stood up and followed Shaoyu out.

The two of us walked into the study one after the other. Ling Haoyu was the first to speak, "It’s been so long since we’ve met, it’s one thing not to welcome me, but you even hit people with things, is this how you treat your guests?"

Shaoyu walked to the window, turned back, looked at him, and said, "Was Xinluo’s car accident your doing?"

Asked about this, Ling Haoyu did not hide it, "Yes... I was in a bit of a rush at the time, and she suddenly dashed out."

Thinking about it now, I accidentally hit her then, and if what I suspect is true, and Mother finds out about this, she would skin me alive!

"That’s the reason," Shaoyu said blandly, "You’re lucky I didn’t have you thrown out."

Ling Haoyu: "...."

"You... wait a minute, you called her Xinluo, and now Lan Shan is also here." Suddenly realizing a possibility, he quickly stepped forward and grabbed his arm, "Is Ye Xinluo the person you mentioned before who lives here?"

"What are you doing?" Shaoyu brushed off his hand expressionlessly, his tone indifferent, "Why else would I hit you?"

Hearing his words, Ling Haoyu suddenly laughed. Those years, he was traveling around the world, only hearing him mention a woman living at home and never having the chance to meet her. No wonder when he heard that little one’s name in the hospital, it felt familiar. It turns out it was from him.

Sitting down by the chair, looking at Shaoyu, he began, "How many years have we known each other?"

"Over a decade, almost twenty years." Shaoyu’s father was a good friend of Ling Ze, and they knew each other from a very young age. Later, as each took on family affairs, they saw each other less frequently.

"Then do you remember Linlin?"

Upon hearing this, Shaoyu was first stunned, then walked to the seat opposite him and sat down. He first met Ling Haoyu when he was 8 years old. Back then, Ling Haoyu had a cold personality, and they often fought. It was only later that he learned it was because his sister was missing that he was like that. Shaoyu always knew there was a taboo about the Ling Family’s daughter; she couldn’t be mentioned or discussed, so he only knew a little, only that there was such a person, and he had even seen a photo of that girl.

"What? After all these years, still haven’t given up?"

Ling Haoyu smiled and replied, "I originally wanted to give up, but now there’s a new lead."

"Hmm?" Shaoyu looked at him puzzled. Over the years, haven’t there been many leads? "You’ve been searching for so many years, why hold out so much hope?"

Ling Haoyu didn’t answer directly, instead saying, "If my sister had not gone missing, then when she turned eighteen, she would be your fiancée."

"Are you joking?"

"I’m not joking, it’s true. I only found out later. My father had originally planned for Linlin to marry you, but unfortunately..."

But unfortunately... you were destined not to be together!
