The Surrogate Bride of the Colonel He

Chapter 322 - It Would be Best to Kill Xu Yangyi

“What do you mean, Yangyi is missing?” Yan Chengyu had been online the whole time, so he overheard everything that happened between Hee Jingyan and Ji Guangming.

Hee Jingyan remained silent, but his gaze was cold as he looked ahead.

On Ji Guangming's end, he was at a loss for how to respond to Yan Chengyu because he was just as clueless about the situation.

Seeing both of them unable to answer, Yan Chengyu's brows immediately furrowed, as Xu Yangyi was his brother's friend. If anything happened to him, he wouldn't be able to forgive himself.

“Fine, I'll give you some time. Once we reach the Xu Family, I want a full explanation of what happened.”

Yan Chengyu relented, but he addressed Hee Jingyan without any hint of submission. His tone was far from polite.

Hearing Yan Chengyu's tone, Ji Guangming broke out in a cold sweat and thought to himself: Why are Yan Chengyu and Eagle so bold! They dare to speak to the colonel so disrespectfully.

But what's odd is, isn't Yan Chengyu just an ordinary soldier? Why is he here? Isn't today the day for the Dragon Riding Team to be out?

Only now did Ji Guangming begin to have doubts. As usual, he was a bit slow on the uptake.

In the car, Nan Xiao sat beside Hee Jingyan, feeling tense and not daring to relax. From time to time, he glanced at Hee Jingyan's face. Seeing the cold expression on Hee Jingyan's face, Nan Xiao suddenly started to wonder.

Xu Yangyi isn't here, and the colonel has this expression. Did something happen to Xu Yangyi?

But that doesn't make sense! First Prince didn't mention capturing anyone else, and he didn't send out any additional troops today. So, apart from the group that's already dead, no one else made a move.

With doubt in his mind, Nan Xiao followed Hee Jingyan to the Xu Family.

Nan Xiao's body trembled slightly as he got out of the car.

Isn't this Xu Yangyi's home? Why are we here? Did Xu Yangyi come back?

The doubt in his heart had nearly consumed Nan Xiao.

“Colonel, would you like me to accompany you inside?”

Due to Gong Cheng's incident, Ji Guangming was unsure of what was happening or whether there would be a conflict, so he volunteered to go along.

“Treat his wounds. Wait outside.”

Hee Jingyan strode into the yard without even turning his head, his expression still as icy as before.

Ji Guangming replied with an “oh” because he couldn't understand why Hee Jingyan still wanted him to treat Nan Xiao's wounds when Nan Xiao had just attacked Xu Yangyi.

Shouldn't we be apprehending the aide-de-camp? Why am I still tending to his wounds at a time like this?!

Ji Guangming couldn't figure it out, but he couldn't let anything slip in front of Nan Xiao.

Nan Xiao initially wanted to refuse, but losing too much blood was bad for his health, so he stayed silent. However, his gaze remained fixed on Hee Jingyan, who had entered the mansion.

What on earth is going on? Not only did First Prince suddenly announce their departure, but the colonel's behavior is also strange. And Xu Yangyi, who was originally fighting with us, is nowhere to be found?

“Sister-in-law, where did you go?”

He looked at Ji Guangming, who was bandaging his wound, hesitated for a moment, but eventually asked because he thought Ji Guangming was too clueless to suspect him.

Ji Guangming's hand paused mid-bandage, and his brows furrowed. He seemed a bit displeased, but he forced a neutral expression and said, “I don't know. When I arrived with the colonel, my sister-in-law was already gone.”

Beast in human form. How dare you ask me where my sister-in-law has gone.

Nan Xiao didn't notice Ji Guangming's expression and simply responded with an “oh”! Then, he fixed his gaze on the Xu Family door.

So, Xu Yangyi is missing now, right? I don't know who did it, but I have to thank them. Hopefully, they kill Xu Yangyi so he won't be able to compete with me for the colonel's favor.
