That night, as the time to return to Beijing had been set, Luo Nan and the teachers-in-charge had been knocking on the door of each room since the afternoon and instructing the students to pack their luggage. They also counted the number of people in advance.
The strange thing was that ever since Kang Wan returned to the hotel after the celebration banquet last night, she had not appeared in front of everyone. Be it the teacher-in-charge or the students in the same group, they had never seen her.
Time passed minute by minute and second. Soon, it was time to prepare to go to the airport. Luo Nan and Li Xiao confirmed the name list one last time in the hotel lobby. When they clicked on Kang Wan’s name and realized that she was still not there, not only the two of them, even the other teachers leading the team became a little anxious.
He transferred two teachers to search for Kang Wan in various parts of the hotel for a few minutes. When they returned, Li Xiao quickly took two steps forward and asked worriedly, “Have you found Kang Wan?”
The teacher-in-charge, who did not manage to find her had returned to the hall to gather, shook his head and said in a low voice, “The hotel manager has brought us to search twice. We have checked every corner of the hotel carefully. That girl is definitely not here!”
Upon hearing this, Li Xiao lowered his eyes and quietly pondered over the situation last night.
After the celebration banquet last night, the teachers who led the team counted the number of students and brought them back to the hotel in an orderly manner.
The only students who did not return to the hotel with the main group were Mo Zhu, Meng Ran, Zhang Qi, and Jiang Yu.
He remembered that Kang Wan was there when he was taking attendance. Why did a young lady disappear mysteriously when he woke up?
Seeing Li Xiao standing rooted to the ground with a frown, deep in thought, Luo Nan waved his hand and summoned a staff member who was in charge of registering the students’ information. He neatly instructed them to look for Kang Wan’s phone number and gave the girl a call with a cold expression.
Unexpectedly, after calling a few times but not getting through, considering that Kang Wan was the daughter of the Kang family in Beijing, Luo Nan looked at the time on his phone. Seeing that everyone’s tickets would be changed if he didn’t leave for the airport soon, he turned to Li Xiao and discussed, “Mr. Li, Kang Wan was still around when we were taking attendance last night. It can be seen that she must have gone out to play by herself this morning. She’s the daughter of the Kang family. Maybe they sent a private plane over and they have already picked her up?”
After pausing for a few seconds, Luo Nan frowned and added, “Mr. Li, it’s getting late. If we don’t leave for the airport now, I’m afraid we won’t be able to return to Beijing tonight. Why don’t we report Kang Wan’s disappearance first? If she returns to Beijing first, the people there will inform us in time!”
The school leaders of Jingyang High School had entrusted the students who came to participate in the competition to Li Xiao, but he had betrayed everyone’s trust and did not take good care of Kang Wan.
Although he was also very worried about the young lady’s safety, he looked at the other students who had already gathered in the hall and were prepared to go home. A strong sense of guilt welled up in his heart. Li Xiao nodded and replied in a low voice, “This is the only thing we can do for now. Bring the students to the airport first and contact the Kang family when we return to Beijing.”
The next morning.
After arranging many things in Southeast Asia in advance, Huo Xuan called a private plane early in the morning to bring everyone back to Beijing.
After arranging for Mo Zhu and Jiang Yu to get on the plane, before Huo Xuan could squeeze to Mo Zhu’s side, Jiang Yu had already held the girl’s arm and sat naturally beside Mo Zhu.
Jiang Yu looked at Mo Zhu with a smile and said in a sweet voice, “Sister Mo, it will take some time to return to Beijing. The journey will definitely be very boring. I’ll sit with you and we can chat when I’m bored!”
Jiang Yu turned her head provocatively and glanced at Huo Xuan. She then looked at Xu Huan, who was about to board the plane. She looked up and smiled at the man. She said sweetly, “Young Master Xu, please sit with Master Huo. You’re alright with it right?”
When Xu Huan heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched quietly. “Sure…”
