"And then?"
Nan Baihao shook his head: "That’s it, my brother seed to have had a bit of alcohol over the phone, said a few things and hung up. He was very tired, just told to pick him up at the airport the next day. He ntioned it casually, didn’t discuss it with in detail."
Bai Wuqing kept telling himself to stay calm, trying to analyze clues from various information, but the situation was too bizarre, and he couldn’t accurately understand anything from these details for the mont.
"Go investigate again, keep searching, it’s impossible to find absolutely nothing!"
"Use all the human, material, and financial resources of the Gu Family to find Shaocheng!"
Just then, the butler found them, "Young Master Bai, I have a tricky situation here too. The old lady wants to see the gentleman; she won’t leave unless she does, and she’s been lingering outside."
"Old lady? Which old lady?"
"It’s Miss Qianxi’s mother, she insists on seeing the gentleman today. It seems Miss Qianxi is missing, and she wants to ask the gentleman for help in finding her. She looks as anxious as if her eyebrows are on fire, but the gentleman is also missing now. I can’t tell her outright, Young Master Bai, what do you think we should do?"
"Gu Qianqian is also missing? Bring the old lady over imdiately, I need to ask her!"
The butler acknowledged and went to inform her.
Gu Qianqian’s mother, around fifty years old, but well-maintained and dressed elegantly, looked about forty. However, her face was full of worry. She thought the butler was taking her to see Gu Shaocheng, but ended up seeing Bai Wuqing instead, and said displeasedly: "Where’s Gu Shaocheng? I want to see Gu Shaocheng."
Bai Wuqing remained calm, sizing up Gu Qianqian’s mother with an assessing gaze, then asked her: "Old lady, you said Miss Qianxi is missing? When did this happen?"
"Where is Gu Shaocheng?"
Nan Baihao suppressed his worries and sat nearby, saying: "Big brother is currently occupied and can’t see you. Speak directly with us, and we will pass it on. What happened to Gu Qianqian? She’s missing? When did it happen?"
Gu Qianqian’s mother pondered for a long ti. She rarely involved herself in Gu Family matters anymore, focusing mostly on her career, occasionally hearing Qianqian ntion Gu Shaocheng’s valued right-hand n, Bai Wuqing and Nan Baihao, the two standing before her.
Despite feeling a bit uneasy, her concern for her daughter overca her hesitations, and she revealed her purpose: "I haven’t been able to reach Qianqian in several days. That child never gives a reason to worry, exceeding three days without calling has never happened before. Even during her studies or while traveling, she would call almost daily. Even busy, she would call after two days just to chat with , but now it’s been approximately 11 days without a call."
"Calling her phone doesn’t connect. I’ve called all her friends and classmates that I have contact with, and none have seen Qianqian recently."
Bai Wuqing listened calmly: "What about Miss Qianxi’s boyfriend? Perhaps they’re together, engrossed and neglecting everything else."
"Qianqian never fails to call for any reason. Her boyfriend’s phone is reachable, but he said he hasn’t contacted Qianqian in days, and he’s also looking for her. I’m worried, thinking Qianqian might be in trouble. I’m out of ideas, so I ca to find Gu Shaocheng, hoping he can help locate Qianqian."
