Kong Xia and Yue Ji had to wait for their luggage to be checked in, so they had to be a little late.
Jiang Li said coquettishly, “Mom, there’s no rush. Xiao and I have just arrived at the airport.”
Her ears twitched slightly and she frowned slightly, but her tone was very relaxed. She asked casually, “Mom, I heard dad talking. who was he talking to?”
Kong Xia smiled and said, “It was that pharmacist friend I mentioned to you. He came to Sea City to do some business and came back with us.”
Was it always like this?
Jiang Li knew that the elders had the right to make friends, but it was just a pharmacist. It did not sound too harmful, so it should be… okay?
“Mom, you can discuss with that elder and take our car back. It’s very spacious.” Jiang Li glanced at Fu Jiuxiao and said with a smile.
Fu Jiuxiao was the closest to Jiang Li, so he could observe Jiang Li’s expression.
Jiang Li suspected Yue Ji and Kong Xia’s friend?
This was not good.
He pinched Jiang Li’s chin, but he did not raise any objections.
It was just a courtesy to receive the elders’ friends.
“Okay, I’ll ask.” After Kong Xia agreed with a smile, she hung up the phone.
Jiang Li and Fu Jiuxiao got out of the car. As they walked to the airport, Fu Jiuxiao asked about the ‘friend’s’ identity.
“Mom said that dad and he have known each other for a long time, and it’s very comfortable to get along with each other. However, I just feel that we should be more careful.” Jiang Li looked at Fu Jiuxiao and said with a smile.
Fu Jiuxiao pointed at the tip of Jiang Li’s nose and persuaded her, “Maybe they’re really just getting along well.”
Maybe.
Jiang Li moved closer to Fu Jiuxiao’s ear and said softly, “Don’t tell anyone. Mom and dad will be angry.”
Of course, Fu Jiuxiao stood on Jiang Li’s side. He put his arm around her shoulder and whispered into her ear from time to time.
They waited for a long time, but they did not see Yue Ji or Kong Xia.
Jiang Li kept calling their cell phones, but no one picked up.
Jiang Li realized that something was wrong, so she immediately contacted the airport staff and asked them to help her find them. In the end, she could only confirm that they had checked their luggage, but there was no more information.
They could not find Kong Xia and Yue Ji.
However, their luggage was found, and it was still on the luggage conveyor belt at the airport.
Did this mean that they did not take their luggage with them when they left?
Jiang Li was flustered, and she already had a bad guess in her heart.
Fu Jiuxiao lowered her voice and whispered into her ear, “An old employee from the company came back from a business trip. He is helping us find them. You can go and do something else.”
Do something else?
Jiang Li was not in the mood…
She suddenly understood what Fu Jiuxiao meant, and she could only hug Fu Jiuxiao unwillingly. She raised her foot and whispered into his ear, “I’ll leave this to you.”
“Okay!” Fu Jiuxiao had barely finished his sentence when he received a call from the staff member.
Jiang Li waited until Fu Jiuxiao ended the call before she rushed back to the car. She opened her laptop and quickly looked for information.
The reason why she and Fu Jiuxiao did not wait for Yue Ji and Kong Xia was that they left early.
A staff member who was in charge of cleaning noticed that a couple was waiting for their luggage. His wife suddenly felt uncomfortable, so they asked their friends to help them with their luggage. They walked out first.
In terms of time, they had just missed Jiang Li.
Jiang Li’s expression became more and more unsightly because she realized that Yue Ji and Kong Xia had started to walk out after they left.
Did they not wait for her?
Why was that?
If Kong Xia was not feeling well, Yue Ji would have taken the initiative to contact her and waited for her to come and pick her up.
Many unsettling thoughts flashed through Jiang Li’s mind, and her expression became worse and worse. In the end, she gradually became gloomy and continued to check all the surveillance footage.
The driver reminded her, “Miss Jiang, your phone has been ringing for a long time.”
Jiang Li was too focused on looking for traces of the couple leaving, and she ignored the incessant ringing of her phone.
She mistook it for Fu Jiuxiao’s call, and she did not even look at it. After picking up the phone, she said, “They have already left the airport building, and I am looking for their traces. That senior pharmacist should have come out a little later.”
However, she might miss it.
It was because Jiang Li did not have a photo of that pharmacist, she knew nothing about him.
She was considering checking the surveillance cameras at the airport to find out who had been in contact with the couple. She would definitely be able to find out what the pharmacist looked like.
Jiang Li heard unfamiliar laughter coming from the other side of the phone. From the voice, she could tell that he was not young. His arrogant tone gave her a bad feeling.
This person was not Fu Jiuxiao.
It should be someone related to Yue Ji and Kong Xia?
Jiang Li had a conclusion in her heart at this time. She gritted her teeth and asked, “Sir, let’s talk about your conditions.”
“My surname is Ji. You can call me Uncle Ji. I’m very good friends with your parents,” the other party introduced himself.
Jiang Li found the relevant information, and with a deep voice, she told him his identity. “Ji Dun once ran a pharmaceutical business. However, because of poor management, the company went bankrupt, and he owed a lot of money.”
“Two months ago, he suddenly received a large sum of money, but he didn’t focus on the business. Instead, he appeared in the village.”
