Chapter 866: Chapter 866: It’s Not Easy for Them Either
"Alright, I’ll have soone look into it."
Housekeeper Ning walked over, overhearing their conversation, and couldn’t help but furrow his brows.
"Sir, should I still book the ticket to Z City for tomorrow?"
Considering the issues in the group now, the trip to Z City should probably be postponed.
He wasn’t feeling well last night and went to bed early, so he had no idea when Gong Shaoyu returned, let alone the drinking between the two.
It was a bit unclear why Gong Shaoyu suddenly wanted to go to Z City, especially since Miss Lan left so angrily.
"Going to Z City? What for?"
Qiao Rui asked curiously.
"Business." He spit out the words blandly, originally planning to find Lan Shan to sort things out, but now he couldn’t leave due to company matters.
"We’ll talk about it later." He rubbed his brow, feeling quite agitated, "Get
so milk..."
He initially wanted to ask for brewed coffee but rembered Shanshan saying too much coffee isn’t good, so he switched to milk.
"Shaoyu, when did you start drinking milk instead?"
He used to have several cups of coffee a day, when did that change?
He hadn’t visited Gong Family Mansion much lately, so naturally, he wasn’t aware of these changes.
Gong Shaoyu ignored him, instructed Housekeeper Ning, and went directly to the study, while Qiao Rui quickly got up to follow him.
...
Over a dozen hours later, at Z City International Airport.
Lan Shan dragged her suitcase out from the VIP passage.
She was yawning as she walked, even though she’d rested on the plane, she still felt sleepy.
That night had been quite a turmoil, she didn’t get to sleep till past three in the morning, and then she was up by ten – nowhere near enough sleep.
Actually, she could have waited for Gong Shaoyu to wake up and then head to the airport, but she didn’t know how to face him, so she simply fled...
Exiting the airport, she imdiately spotted Ye Xinluo among the crowd. Approaching, Ye Xinluo took her luggage, linked arms with her, and led the way to the car.
"Shanshan, you’re finally back, I was bored to death at ho."
"You’re just looking for soone to talk to and hang out with, right?"
Lan Shan rolled her eyes, exposing her friend’s motive.
"Didn’t you say Qin Yin would be coming too? Why is she missing?"
She glanced around but didn’t see her, so she couldn’t help asking.
"The hospital called her yesterday, saying they needed to conduct so tests on her mother, so she didn’t co."
Lan Shan knew a bit about Qin Yin’s mother’s situation, but it wasn’t Ye Xinluo who told her; so ti ago Ye Xinluo added Qin Yin on WeChat and created a group chat with just the three of them.
They would chat occasionally, and it was then that Lan Shan learned about her mother’s situation.
"In that case, when should we visit the hospital? I think Qin Yin’s having a tough ti, working hard while still taking care of her mom."
If it were her, she might have buckled under the pressure long ago, but Qin Yin hasn’t complained at all, carrying this burden all by herself for so long.
"Yes, last week, I accompanied her to the hospital. Qin Yin was sitting alone in the ward, crying, it was truly heartbreaking to see. The doctor even said that even if she wakes up, living independently is unlikely, she’ll need soone to care for her, and the chances of her waking are quite slim."
With that, she sighed softly.
That day, she stood outside the ward and saw Qin Yin crying, it felt heart-wrenching.
