And Gu Deshou was already on his way to Kentucky?
Hadn’t all the tickets been sold? How had he gotten his hands on a ticket?
Zhuang Nainai asked, “Aren’t all the tickets to America fully booked? Gu Deshou’s already on a plane?”
After hearing this, Li Yufeng was taken aback. She paused for a moment before replying, “Oh, this, that, he’s already left for the airport. He’s about to board, the ticket… er, it was difficult to get a ticket. He had booked it in advance. Anyway, rest assured, he’ll reach Kentucky tomorrow. By then, those people who had entered the woods to search for her will be out of the woods as well. The results of all searches will be out by tomorrow.”
Upon hearing this, Zhuang Nainai furrowed her brows. “Why is whatever you’re saying so incoherent? News about my mother was only released today. How could he have possibly bought tickets a few days in advance?!”
She clenched her fists. “Are you going to tell me the truth or not?”
Li Yufeng sighed deeply. Then she said, “Nainai, you’re pregnant. You shouldn’t be traveling to America right now. Rest assured in China. Your father will update you once he gets any news!”
She was pregnant and she shouldn’t be traveling to America?
Zhuang Nainai hung up the call. She felt an inexplicable feeling churning within her body!
There was something wrong, then! There was definitely something wrong.
Zhuang Nainai felt her brain swelling up. As she was really worried about Mother Zhuang, she could not calm down. She felt as though her brain was filled with glue, and she could not think straight. However, she couldn’t jump to conclusions like that and accuse him of manipulating the ticket sales. She had to believe him.
As she thought about this, she stood up and decided to look for Si Zhengting. She would ask him straight if he had manipulated the sales. They were husband and wife; they should not doubt each other.
Zhuang Nainai pushed the door to the room open and walked over. He was still in the study room, standing in the middle of it and talking on the phone with someone else. He seemed anxious. “That’s right, would it be possible for us to get approval for an air route today? To Kentucky… If that’s not possible, then to any other city in America. I’ll transfer to another flight when I get there… Alright, please contact the relevant department and try to negotiate with them. Please see if you can expedite this.”
After he said this, he hung up the phone. He turned back and looked at Zhuang Nainai. His gaze was deep. “Nainai, you should stay calm. The fastest we can get there is probably tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.”
Zhuang Nainai’s eyes widened, and she nodded her head. Then she bit her lip and said, “Si Zhengting, I have a question for you.”
Si Zhengting whipped his head around and was just about to reply when his phone rang again. He picked it up and walked to the balcony. “Hello, how are you? It’s me… Yes, the fastest would be the day after tomorrow? Is it possible to expedite this request?”
She walked to the sofa in the study room and sat down.
Si Zhengting seemed to have been doing work here. His laptop was on the coffee table, and the display was lit. A QQ avatar was flashing.
She glanced at it curiously and saw that the avatar belonged to their family doctor. Thus, she clicked on it and saw Si Zhengting’s conversation with him.
“Mr. Si, Madam definitely cannot leave the country. If she does, her child will be in danger!”
Upon seeing this, Zhuang Nainai felt her heart drop. She was frozen with shock.
Then, she saw Ji Chen’s QQ avatar.
Her hands shaking, she clicked on his avatar and saw Ji Chen’s message to Si Zhengting. “Sir, I’ve bought all the airplane tickets that are bound for America.”
