Baby Chu could not sleep, so he chatted with her. It was not until Chu He came in and nagged at Baby Chu a few times that he finally quietened down.
After Chu He had showered, she went into the room again, she saw that the lights in the room were still on. She walked to the head of the bed and saw that Baby Chu was hugging Sheng’er, while the girl’s head was leaning against his chest, both of them were sleeping soundly.
She bent over and planted a kiss on Baby Chu’s forehead. Then, she walked to Sheng’er’s side and covered her with the blanket. She smiled and planted a kiss on her forehead.
As Chu He walked out of the room, Butler Fu came running up as though in a hurry. When he saw Chu He, he said uneasily, “I sent someone to Sheng’er’s home address to check. It turned out that there was no one at home.”
Before putting the two children to bed, Chu He had asked Butler Fu to make a visit to Sheng’er’s home to see what was going on.” She could not help worrying over the fact that the girl’s mother seemed to have gone missing for no reason. Chu He was surprised to learn that there was no one at home.
“How could that be?” Chu He was worried, “Could there have been an accident?”
Butler Fu shook his head, indicating he wasn’t sure.
“Do we need to call the police?”
“Call the police? To report a missing person? We have to wait 24 hours before we can file a case.”
Butler Fu nodded.
“We’ll talk about it tomorrow morning!”
Chu He had just turned around when Butler Fu said meaningfully,, “When we passed by the highway today, a part of the road was sealed.”
“…?” Chu He turned around in surprise and looked at the man. She frowned. “What happened?”
“I heard that there was a car accident there. Apparently, the accident happened around six in the evening. Because of the traffic jam, a large truck couldn’t brake in time. It was tailgating a small sedan in front of it and caused a chain collision. When I passed by, the scene had not been cleaned up and there was a long cordon.”
Chu He fell into deep contemplation.
“I witnessed the scene. A white car was tailgated by a large truck and was swept right under its wheels. The car was flattened, and the few cars in front of it were badly damaged.”
“A white car?”
Chu He’s heart skipped a beat and a bad feeling overcame her.
Butler Fu nodded. “A white Mercedes…”
Chu He’s eyelids suddenly twitched even harder.
She recalled the white Mercedes-Benz that Sheng’er’s mother was driving…
Could it be so coincidental?
However, even if Chu He did not want to think in that direction, Butler Fu was still suspicious, “I am worried that something has happened to Sheng’er’s mother! Chu He, you should know, no matter what, it’s late, and her mother has not come for her, and there is no one at home, I have a feeling that something’s not right! A situation like this is not normal!”
Chu He suddenly asked, “You witnessed the accident scene… that white Mercedes-Benz was crushed by the truck…”
“Yes, it was tragic! That big truck was a cement truck, a heavy vehicle. Basically… it’s likely that anyone inside the car would have been killed. No… most certainly they would not have survived.”
Chu He immediately instructed, “Ask around, where had the injured and the deceased been sent?”
“Alright then… let’s go to the hospital to check on the situation first!”
Chu He returned to her room and got changed immediately.. Gu Jinglian walked out of the bedroom and saw her frantic expression. Finding it odd, he asked, “Where are you going?”
