Five days have passed. Tang Jiao will receive a video call from Xiao Jingchuan on time before going to bed every day, and the two will talk for half an hour.

It's the only half hour of relaxation in a day full of worries.

The boy on the screen always stood in front of a white wall. He was still handsome and cold, but his outline became sharper and his eyes seemed to be covered with a thick layer of black.

When talking to Tang Jiao, he was extremely gentle, even if he couldn't hide the tired look on his face.

Tang Jiao said: "Xiao Jingchuan, Doctor Jin said I am recovering well. How are you?"

The young man smiled and coaxed her softly: "Jiaojiao is so good, it's time to go to bed."

He coaxed her to sleep, but never answered whether she was okay.

Therefore, he is not good.

very bad.

In fact, Xiao Jingchuan never saw Xiao Sheng and Lin Xiao Pei to Tang Jiao, but he just said lightly every day that they would be fine.

On the sixth day, Tang Jiao called Jin Chengfeng again and asked her if she could finish the treatment and return to China, but still received a negative reply.

On the eighth day, a man in a white coat suddenly came behind the screen. Xiao Jingchuan hurriedly said good night to Tang Jiao and hung up, and the call time was shortened to 15 minutes.

On the ninth day, Tang Jiao waited until the early morning without waiting for a call, and was forced to lie down on the bed by Qin Li.

On the tenth day, before dawn, Tang Jiao secretly took his ID card and ran away, but was caught on the spot by Qin Li who had gotten up at night.

Jin Chengfeng led the assistant doctor directly to Rui'an Sanatorium.

On Day No. 11, the day after Xiao Jingchuan lost contact, Tang Jiao completely pulled out the needle, put on a soft hat, and finally boarded the earliest flight back to China.

When he landed, the blazing waves belonging to Jingzhou hit Tang Jiao's face.

The dazzling sunshine and the scorching summer wind made her feel dazed for a moment.

On mobile phones that automatically connect to domestic networks, long-delayed news keeps popping up, and every headline is shocking.

"Major car accident on Jingjiang Expressway"

"Death at the scene of the explosion"

"Xiaoyi Group is not out of danger"

Tang Jiao's feet went weak and was supported by Qin Li.

The three of them rushed to the hospital without stopping, but what happened next was beyond everyone's expectations.

The third floor of the VIP special care ward of Jingzhou No. 1 Civil Hospital was guarded layer by layer, and they were not allowed to enter under any circumstances.

Xiao Jingchuan didn't seem to be there either, and the phone still couldn't be reached.

In desperation, Qi Dongyang contacted his parents again.

Only then did I know that three days ago, Xiaoli Group sent people to closely guard the ward where Xiaosheng and his wife were staying. No outsiders could visit. Today, even they were kicked out.

Tang Jiao stood a few meters away, looking at the burly men in black patrolling back and forth, feeling increasingly uneasy.

These people said they were taking care of them, but no matter how they looked at it, they looked more like they were monitoring and guarding against something.

Qi's father was on the phone, vaguely urging Qi Dongyang to take Tang Jiao out of the hospital.

Helpless, Qi Dongyang and Qin Li could only forcefully drag Tang Jiao out of the hospital.

Xiao Family Manor.

No one answered the doorbell for a long time.

Tang Jiao pressed the code on the outer courtyard door and asked Qi Dongyang to drive in.

It was quiet in the huge manor.

In the villa, several servants were walking around quietly, packing something unknown.

Tang Jiao found Li Lijuan in the kitchen and asked, "Aunt Juan, is Xiao Jingchuan at home?"

"Miss Tang Jiao! You are back!"

Li Lijuan, the housekeeper's wife and cook of the Xiao family, excitedly held Tang Jiao's hand.

Tang Jiao ignored the pleasantries and asked again: "Where is Xiao Jingchuan?"

The smile on Li Lijuan's face disappeared, and she said worriedly: "I don't know where the young master has gone. Lao Zhang took someone out to look for him today."

The light in Tang Jiao's eyes dimmed a little more.

The few people ignored Li Lijuan's request to stay for dinner and quickly left.

Qiongsen Fight Club.

"Brother Qiao Sen, where is Xiao Jingchuan?"

As soon as Qiao Sen drove out of the garage, he was stopped by Tang Jiao and his group.

He got out of the car and slammed the door. The 1.9-meter-ish, thick, black man scratched his messy dreadlocks angrily and said he didn't know.

Qiao Sen is also looking for Xiao Jingchuan.

He said that Xiao Jingchuan left in a hurry after receiving a strange phone call at the hospital yesterday afternoon. By the evening, the phone could no longer be reached.

From the hospital, to Xiao’s home, from Xiao’s home to Qiongsen, from Qiongsen to Liyuan...

From the bright sun in the sky to the full moon in the sky.

Tang Jiao went to every place they had been to, wherever Xiaojingchuan might appear.

But she couldn't find it, and everyone she met said they didn't know.

She came back, but she couldn't find Xiao Jingchuan.

Tang Jiao was still recovering. After seven or eight hours of flying and another day of running around, his face was already looking a little bad.

"Tang Jiao, go back and rest first. If Jingchuan doesn't come back, you won't be able to hold on anymore." Qi Dongyang said with a frown.

Qin Li glanced at the time and said, "It's already early in the morning, and there's no way to waste it any longer. Xiao Cuntou, let's take you back first. Qiao Sen and the others have already reported the case."

The current situation was too confusing and unclear. Qin Li and Qi Dongyang wanted to take her to the Qi family, but Tang Jiao refused.

The car drove to a high-end apartment area near Jingsheng No. [-] Middle School.

"Qin Li, Dongyang, thank you for your hard work. Go back and rest. If you have any news about Xiao Jingchuan, please tell me. Thank you."

Tang Jiao bowed and nodded towards the two of them, turned around and opened the door.

She returned to their apartment.

A small light automatically turned on in the entrance hall, dimly illuminating the room.

Everything is as they left it.

Tang Jiao stood numbly at the entrance.

Her body was very tired, her eyes fell to the ground blankly, and her mind could no longer move.

"Purrrrr, bunny."

"Have you seen Xiao Jingchuan?"

The two big and small pandas and the big purple rabbit on the cabinet still have cute smiling faces, welcoming their owners home.

But it was quiet, and no one answered her.

Tang Jiao was suddenly drained of all his strength, his legs went weak and he sat down on the ground.

The halo of the ceiling light in the entrance hall shrouded her back.

With slender white knuckles, he took out the phone again without giving up.

"Beep, beep, beep..."

"Sorry, the number you dialed cannot be connected at the moment, please try again later-"

Tang Jiao couldn't bear to listen to the voice that had been repeated all day again, so he turned off his phone.

She drooped her thin neck, and her tears kept falling, dripping on the floor.

Everything happened so suddenly. Tang Jiao went from being worried, scared, and anxious at the beginning to now being numb.

First, Xiao Jingchuan's parents were involved in a car accident, then Xiao Jingchuan returned to China, and now Xiao Jingchuan is missing.

In less than half a month, everything was turned upside down. What was once a logical and natural path to a bright future was labeled as forced demolition.

It was as if the emotional threshold was constantly being breached, breached, breached, and now, she seemed to be unable to feel any emotion at all.

What happened to Xiao Jingchuan?

Where did he go?

Qiao Sen said that Xiao Jingchuan left the hospital on his own initiative after answering a phone call. Does that mean that at least he is safe?

I was delayed by something, my phone happened to be broken...
