"My mummy is not here. She or the driver has not co to pick up."
"What? But they have never been this late. They gave never been late except one ti," Teacher Song said in shock.
"I know. I am worried. I want to go ho," Bai Xiaojin said.
"You will. I will make sure of it. I have your mother's phone number. Wait for a while as I call her, okay?" He said to calm Bai Xiaojin.
"Okay."
Teacher Song tapped on his phone a few tis before placing his phone by his ears. After a while, he removed it.
"Her phone is switched off," he said much to Bai Xiaojin's hearing.
When he raised his head to look at Bai Xiaojin, he could see that the boy was on the verge of crying. His brain quickly put itself to use as ge thought of what next to do.
"Ah! Apart from your mother's phone number, do you know any other? Like anyone apart from her?" Teacher Song asked.
"Yes. My grandma. I know her number," Bai Xiaojin said after so thoughts.
"Well, then that is great. Here, daily the number and give her a call," Teacher Song said and passed his phone to Bai Xiaojin.
After a few rings, the call got connected and he placed it on speaker Jiang ilin's voice rang out from the phone.
"Hello?"
"Hello, grandma."
"Oh, hi honey. How are you? You know, you have never called when you are with your mummy. Did you miss so much today?" She asked with a cheerful voice.
"Hmm," Bai Xiapjon nodded.
"I miss you too. But this is not your mummy's number. Gasp. Did she get you a phone already?"
"No. I am not with mummy. Wuuu! Grandma, I am still in school," Bai Xiaojin burst into tears.
"WHAT?! School at this ti? It is past two already. Where is that driver Jun?" Jiang ilin erupted.
"I don't know. Grandma, I want to go ho."
"Hello, ma'am. I am Bai Xiaojin's classteacher," Teacher Song introduced himself.
"Oh, yes. Please can you help take care of my grandson? I am sending soone over to the school to pick him up," Jiang ilin said.
"Are you sure about that? The school is totally empty and the security man is about to close the gates of the school," Teacher Song inford her.
"Oh dear! The house from the school is quite a distance," she murmured worriedly.
"Oh! Why don't you send your ho's address so that I can take Bai Xiaojin ho? It maybtkae a lot of ti before you can get here since your residence is far from here," he suggested.
"Really? You can do that?"
"Yes, ma'am."

"There is no problem. You are welco. I will wait for the address then."

"Co on, Bai Xiaojin. Let us go. I will be taking you ho," Teacher Song said after the call.
"What about my mummy and uncle Jun?" Bai Xiaojin asked between his sobs.
"I don't know about them. But we need to get you ho first, okay?"
"Hmm."
anwhile, Xia Xinyi had nit seen or heard from her body, Bai Renxiang. They were supposed to go to the new hotel after her eting but she never ca back to the office or even called.
Xia Xinyi had to go alone and apologised on Bai Renxiang's behalf. After that, she returned to the company but Bai Renxiang had not arrived.
She asked Jinhai if Bai Renxiang had cone to the office and left and ge said no. Xia Xinyi was starting to get worried.
"Maybe she went to pick up little master Xiaojin and they have done ho. Yes, that should be she case," she talked to herself as she paced around her office.
Just then, her thoughts were interrupted by the loud ringing if her phone. She paused in her steps and turned to gaze at her ho in the table.
"Madam Jiang," she whispered. With the sored of light, Xia Xinyi rushed to her table to pick the phone.
"Hello, ma'am. Good afternoon, ma'am," she greeted her.
"Good afternoon. Uhm, Xia Xinyi, is my daughter still at the office?" Jiang ilin asked.
"Huh? No. The boss is not in the office. She left since then this morning and had not returned. I thought she went to pick up little master Xiaojin and they are at ho," Xia Xinyi said the last part in a whisper as realisation began to dawn on her.
If Jiang ilin called to ask if her daughter's whereabouts at the office, that only ans that she us not at ho either.
"No, she is not at ho and she did not go to pick Xiaojin either. Do you know where these she might have done off to?"
"No, ma'am."
"Sigh. Alright, then. I will hang up. If she calls you or anything, please let know, okay?"
"I will, ma'am. Have a nice day."
"I can't have a nice day," Jiang ilin said after the call. She was already having a bad feeling about this whole thing. Jiang ilin sighed as she massage her forehead.
"What did she say?" Shin asked.
"Bai Renxiang us not at ttr office either. Where could my daughter be? Sothing is wrong. I can feel it and I don't like this bad feeling," she said.
"Don't think if sothing bad. Maybe she just wants to be alone and went sowhere quiet," Shane thought out.
"No! Bai Renxiang hardly wants to be alone. If there is anything she gates, it is going sowhere away from everyone to be alone," Jiang ilin half yelled.
"She would have called at least. Even if she wants to be alone, she would have sent the driver to pick up Xiaojin or called to tell Shane. I'm scared."
