My White and Rich Beautiful CEO Wife-Chapter 737 A Great Achievement

"Ah... Mom, is it that urgent?"

When Ye Xinyue said she would return to the sect early tomorrow morning, Yan Mingyu’s heart sank, and a wave of discomfort and despair rose within her.

Following her mother, did that mean she would never see that foolish man who loved her dearly, who was willing to brave any danger for her, ever again?

As this thought crossed her mind, Yan Mingyu bit her lip, and her eyes began to mist.

"Right, we’ll leave as soon as your aunt is rescued. Capital City is the Fengyun Chamber of Commerce’s territory; it’s not wise to stay long."

Ye Xinyue captured her daughter’s reaction and felt even more convinced that her decision was the correct one. The deeper her daughter fell, the more urgent it became to sever the emotional ties between her and Qin Yu, lest something uncontrollable ensue.

She herself had been ruined by a scoundrel in her lifetime; she couldn’t let her daughter repeat her mistakes.

"Keep a close eye on the young lady!"

Ye Xinyue instructed the two maids once more before she set out with her longsword into the night.

"Mom, be careful!"

Yan Mingyu called out uneasily as she watched her mother’s silhouette fade away.

But Ye Xinyue moved quickly and vanished in the blink of an eye. She got into an inconspicuous black car parked outside the courtyard, and with a press on the accelerator, she sped off towards the headquarters of the Fengyun Chamber of Commerce.

"Hey, that seems to be the woman we’re looking for!"

Almost immediately after, a van stopped, and several men inside focused intently on their phones, connecting to the view from a drone’s camera.

One of them, pointing at the figure of Yan Mingyu standing at the door on the screen, muttered uncertainly.

"Hold the image steady; I’ll take a look at the screenshot!"

The man speaking took out his phone, opened a screenshot, which was an image of Yan Mingyu they had found online.

However, it was hard to be sure since it was dark at night.

"There’s a seventy percent resemblance!"

"Probably her!"

"Quick, tell Brother Lei Wu!"

These men were Lei Wu’s subordinates, dispatched in several groups to search for Yan Mingyu all over Capital City.

The first one to find her would be rewarded with one million, and in addition, they would have the chance to enjoy three days at the Heavenly Cloud Ravine.

The mere thought of the beautiful girls at Heavenly Cloud Ravine and even the prospect of studying foreign languages there got them as excited as if they’d been injected with adrenaline.

Taking out their phones, they dialed Lei Wu’s number, unable to suppress the excitement in their voices: "Brother Lei... Brother Lei Wu, we found Yan Mingyu!"

"What?"

In the office, Lei Wu sprang up from the sofa, his cigar dropping to the floor.

This was a mission given by the Saintess of the Fengyun Chamber of Commerce. If completed, wouldn’t that be a great achievement?

"Listen, don’t, don’t spook her. I’ll give you your next instructions in five minutes!"

Since the matter was of great importance, Lei Wu dared not decide on his own. He had to consult the Saintess to see what she said.

"Sure, Brother Lei Wu, we’ll stay put outside the courtyard."

The subordinate on the phone said.

Huh...

Lei Wu took a deep breath, adjusted his tie, and seemed to see power and status beckoning to him.

He opened his mouth, animated his facial expressions, then picked up the phone to dial the number the Saintess had left, bending slightly at the waist as if she could see him: "Miss Hanyan, our men have found Yan Mingyu in a small courtyard in the suburbs."

Knowing that important people dislike superfluous talk, Lei Wu went straight to the point as soon as the call connected.

"Hmm, you’ve done a good job."

Indeed, the Saintess seemed very satisfied on the phone, then after a pause, she said, "Keep her under close surveillance. I’ve got something on tonight, but I’ll come and arrest her later myself."

"Yes, yes, I understand, Miss Hanyan, please rest assured."

"Beep beep..."

The Saintess on the other end of the phone didn’t reply and simply hung up.

"Hehe, with Helian Wudi dead and a Hall Master position vacant in Wu City, it would be great if it were given to me!"

Lei Wu plopped down on his seat, lit up another cigar, crossed his legs in a relaxed manner, and wore a content expression on his face.

At that moment.

Fengyun Chamber of Commerce Headquarters.

One must understand that Capital City was the ancient capital, preserving a large number of ancient buildings.

The headquarters of the Fengyun Chamber of Commerce was no exception, being a well-preserved, imposing siheyuan that was said to have once been the home of a certain prince.

Just the two stone lions at the entrance were over three meters tall.

On the bluestone steps, two smooth columns were said to be made entirely of golden phoebe wood.

A black plaque bore the words "Fengyun Chamber of Commerce Headquarters" in grand, dragon and phoenix calligraphy, meticulous and clearly written by a master’s hand.

There were also two guards in black, standing upright with stern expressions, and their temples slightly bulging, clearly showing they were martial arts practitioners.

Whoosh...

Just then, a shadow flashed by as if teleporting, appearing right in front of the two guards.

The figure was slender, hair tied in a ponytail, wearing a black veil that revealed only a pair of beautiful phoenix eyes.

It was none other than Ye Xinxue.

From Mingyu’s looks, it wasn’t hard to tell that Xinyue must have been a great beauty in her youth. Even now, she still had a mature and exquisite charm.

"You...."

However, just as the two guards began to speak, they were quickly rendered immobile by Xinyue’s touch on their pressure points.

Grabbing one guard by the shoulder, she quickly entered the main gate and with a clang drew a cold, gleaming longsword, placing it across the guard’s neck.

The chilling presence caused the guard’s neck to break out in goosebumps.

"Tell me, in which room is Zhou Yune?"

Xinyue’s voice was ice-cold as she spoke.

During her time in Capital City, she certainly hadn’t been idle, having learned that every night at the Fengyun Chamber of Commerce Headquarters, one of the vice-presidents would be on duty.

As it happened, tonight was the turn of Vice-President Zhou Yune, the very man who had kidnapped her sister, Ye Xinyue.

Otherwise, no matter how confident Xinyue was in her own abilities, she would not have dared to intrude alone when all the Fengyun Chamber of Commerce’s top brass were present.

The Fengyun Chamber of Commerce had dominated Hua Country for decades; its strength was certainly not to be underestimated, especially with the infamous Ming Palace backing it.

"In...."

The guard’s eyes darted around, revealing an expression of conflict.

"Speak!"

Xinyue commanded in a low voice, pressing slightly with the sword, enough to break the skin on the guard’s neck, and a trickle of blood began to spread.

"Don’t... don’t kill me. Vice-President Zhou is in the Yellow Courtyard."

The guard quickly said.

Fengyun Chamber of Commerce Headquarters had four independent courtyards for rest, named after the concepts of heaven, earth, mystery, and yellow, corresponding to the highest-ranking and strongest four members of the Chamber.

One president and three vice-presidents.

"Hmph, you better not be playing tricks!"

Xinyue sheathed her longsword, knocked out the guard with a palm strike, and dragged him into the garden.

Then, in a few moments, she vanished into the darkness, in search of the Yellow Courtyard.

Minutes later, Xinyue spotted a courtyard with the character "Yellow" written on its gate.

She did not break through the door but instead lightly touched the tips of her feet and jumped over the two-meter-high wall.

Pat...

As soon as Xinyue landed, she saw a chair in the courtyard with a slender figure seated upon it.

Also wearing a veil, revealing only a pair of indifferent, cold eyes without a hint of emotion.

Staring unblinkingly at Xinyue, the figure spoke faintly, "I’ve been waiting for you for a long time!"
