Chapter 696: Mysterious Disappearance

# Rejected 99 Times, the Aloof Campus Belle Comes On Strong at Me, Jiang Muye

**Boss Cutie**

"I'm not seeing things, am I? Is this the latest trend? A sweater full of holes, so fashionable!"

"As expected of the CEO, truly the most fashionable and trendy person! We haven't even caught up with the fashion trend, and the CEO is already at the highest level!"

"Exactly! The CEO actually looks so handsome dressed like this! Coming to work every day and seeing such a handsome boss, my mood improves, and I even have motivation to work overtime! If only I had such a handsome Darling!"

But then someone poured cold water on it.

"The CEO is married now, he has a Darling, and his Darling is super pretty. You'd better give up on that hope as soon as possible."

The other party muttered, "Well, at least let me dream a little. If a guy as handsome as the CEO really appeared and took a fancy to me, I'd be so happy I'd die~"

While the employees were chattering away, Jiang Muye had already arrived at the office.

Unlike those lovestruck employees, the secretary was quite clear-headed.

She even suspected she hadn't woken up properly, which was why she was seeing her boss come in dressed like this.

"CEO, what… happened today? And your sweater seems to have come unraveled."

The secretary began to remind Jiang Muye. Following her words, Jiang Muye looked down and indeed saw a long thread coming loose from the sweater.

Jiang Muye immediately picked up a pair of scissors and cut it off. "Mm, that's better."

The secretary was stunned for a moment.

This sweater must be really expensive, right.

Otherwise, why wouldn't he throw it away when it's this tattered?

It must be some shareholder sweater the CEO auctioned off somewhere, the price had to be super high! Otherwise, would the CEO cherish it this much!

By the afternoon, there was a client to meet.

For the company's image, no matter how much Jiang Muye liked this sweater, he couldn't wear it to meet a client.

So Jiang Muye changed into a clean shirt and placed the sweater on the office sofa.

He just didn't know that after he left, the sweater was accidentally dragged onto the floor.

When Jiang Muye returned, he couldn't find the sweater on the sofa at all.

"Where's my sweater, how is it gone?" Jiang Muye was extremely puzzled.

He looked around the room, but didn't see the sweater.

Logically, the sweater should be on the sofa. How could it have disappeared.

While Jiang Muye was searching for the sweater, he happened to see the secretary walk in.

"Did you see my sweater?"

"CEO, sorry, I didn't see it. What's wrong, is the sweater missing?" Seeing Jiang Muye frantically searching, the secretary became even more certain that this was a super private custom-made item, and the price was definitely not cheap.

Otherwise, why would the CEO be so anxious.

Jiang Muye rubbed his temples.

He was a bit troubled. After all, this was clothing his own Darling had painstakingly knitted.

He wore it out, but couldn't wear it home. It would definitely make his Darling overthink.

What if she got angry?

Besides, Jiang Muye actually quite liked the sweater she knitted.

When the critical moment came, Jiang Muye thought of the surveillance cameras.

He could find out where the sweater went through the surveillance.

So Jiang Muye immediately checked the surveillance and saw that it was the handyman assistant Little Wang who had taken the sweater.

"Call Little Wang in here," Jiang Muye said to the secretary.

Soon Little Wang arrived. After learning that Jiang Muye was asking about the sweater, he was terrified. "Sorry, I thought it was a rag that was going to be thrown away, so I threw it in the trash can."

"Trash can?!" Jiang Muye's reaction was especially strong. He immediately got up from his seat.

Seeing Jiang Muye's serious expression, Little Wang immediately trembled. "Sorry, CEO!"

Not just Jiang Muye, even the secretary said to Little Wang, "How could you take it upon yourself to touch the CEO's personal belongings? You clean, fine, but why did you throw things away!"

However, Jiang Muye had already rushed out, catching both of them off guard.

"CEO, where are you going!" the secretary called out in confusion.

But Jiang Muye didn't look back.

Right now, he just wanted to find the sweater his Darling had knitted.

He had his Object-Seeking skill before, so now he could directly pinpoint it.

However, the location was already at the garbage dump in the back alley of the company.

Jiang Muye immediately rushed over.

【Ding, congratulations Host on a successful Check-in location, obtained two hundred points.】

The garbage dump was naturally foul-smelling and unbearable, extremely stinky.

Although he had the Object-Seeking skill, it only gave a rough direction. To pinpoint a specific spot and find it was like fishing a needle out of the ocean.

If you don't use a team, you'll have to work yourself to death.

Jiang Muye was a CEO after all. Going to the garbage dump to struggle alone was impossible, so he picked up his phone and made a call. "Secretary, find a few bodyguards to come help."

So within a few minutes, a group of bodyguards came running over.

They were all very respectful to Jiang Muye. Upon seeing him, they bowed. "CEO, what do you want us to do?"

Jiang Muye said coolly, "I've lost a gray sweater. Now help me find it quickly. A generous reward for whoever finds it."

The bodyguards wiped their cold sweat.

The employer asking them to protect someone, that was pretty easy.

But never before had anyone started searching for something in a garbage dump.

And looking for a sweater, no less.

But since Jiang Muye had given the order, they definitely had to obey Jiang Muye.

So word spread from person to person.

Originally Jiang Muye had only mentioned one spot, and he and a few bodyguards were searching.

Later it became a whole crowd searching.

Among them were the garbage dump manager, the gate guards, even a few patrol teams, and company employees. Even the secretary joined the ranks.

They were all certain of one thing: who would dare slack off even a little now.

Fortunately, many hands make light work, and the direction the System pointed to was completely correct, so that sweater was found quickly.

Only—

"CEO, do you still want it? It stinks so bad…" The bodyguard said to Jiang Muye awkwardly.

Everyone else looked somewhat disgusted.

Only Jiang Muye took the sweater with great treasuring. "Thanks."

It did smell a bit, but this was his Darling's sweater, knitted stitch by stitch.

He directly took it to the laundry to have them handle it. Fortunately, the sweater had no other damage, so after washing and drying it would be fine.

The laundry agreed that Jiang Muye could pick it up tomorrow.

Only then did Jiang Muye feel reassured.

【Ding, congratulations Host, successful Check-in location, obtained three hundred points.】

He set out from the laundry and returned home.

Leng Ruoli was still knitting something, seemingly knitting him socks. Leaning on the sofa, she looked completely serious and soft.

Jiang Muye's mood soared. He subconsciously walked over.

He leaned close to Leng Ruoli and said with a smile, "Knitting me something again? Darling, I already have plenty of socks. This kind of thing, just go buy it outside. You don't have to work so hard."

"Who said I'm knitting them for you?" Leng Ruoli said with a smile.
