Chapter 853: Chapter 841: Qiao Jing Is Alive
“You must be new here, that’s why you don’t know, right?”
A person in the know happened to pass by and explained to the newcors to the sea: “They’re not looking for sothing, they’re looking for soone.”
“Looking for soone? Who are they looking for?” a curious young girl asked further.
“They’re looking for the young mistress of the Zhan Family. Four years ago, she went out to sea and encountered a tsunami, disappearing at sea.”
“Her husband, President Zhan of the Zhan Corporation, has braved all kinds of weather for the past four years, coming here every day with a group to search for her.”
The inford person shared all they knew and added, “At first, we all thought after ten days or half a month of searching, if they didn’t find her, President Zhan would definitely give up.”
“But not only did President Zhan not give up, he’s persisted till now. In this day and age, it’s rare to find soone so devoted and single-minded!”
“Everyone around here knows about this, except for you newcors who aren’t in the loop yet.”
Everyone listened intently.
Once the inford person finished speaking, the girl who was asking questions earlier spoke again, “Listening to you, now I’m truly curious about what such a devoted man must be like?”
The inford person turned around, facing the sea, and happened to see the person they were talking about standing on the deck of a yacht.
He pointed to the tall, elegant figure and said to the girl, “Look, do you see him? The one on the deck is President Zhan.”
The girl followed the direction of the inford person’s finger, and when her gaze fell on Zhan Qipei, she couldn’t help but exclaim, “Wow! He’s so handso! How can there be such a handso person in the world? He’s practically celestial!”
Amazed, the girl then beca curious about sothing else, “What kind of beautiful person must the young mistress of the Zhan Family be to make such a handso man wait for her like this? She surely must be a peerless beauty!”
Soon after, the girl sighed, “I hope she’s still alive and appears soon to reunite with her husband, so he doesn’t have to wait in vain any longer.”
Upon hearing this, soone nearby spoke up, “That’s impossible; it was a tsunami. Being engulfed by a tsunami, how could anyone survive?”
Others chid in, “That’s right, and she’s been missing for four years. If she were still alive, surely she would have been found by now, right?”
“Searching for so long without even a trace; there’s definitely no hope left.”
The girl listened, furrowing her brows as she refuted, “Haven’t you heard the saying ‘fortunes favor the good’? Anyway, I believe she’s still alive, and one day, they will definitely see each other again!”
anwhile, inside a luxurious villa.
The TV in the hall was broadcasting a news segnt.
The news was about the disappearance of the famous agricultural mogul, Professor Qiao, four years ago.
For the past four years, all forces have been searching for Professor Qiao’s whereabouts, but to this day, there are still no leads.
Thus, the authorities hope to spread this news through the dia, mobilizing the nation to collectively search for Professor Qiao.
They also hope those with clues can step forward to provide information…
After seeing the news, Qiao Lin, the short-haired girl sitting on the sofa, couldn’t help but lant, “Professor Qiao, such an accomplished person who made huge contributions to our country’s agricultural developnt, and a legendary figure admired by many, ended up disappearing!”
“Alas, now we can only hope the police and other forces find him soon.”
As she spoke, Qiao Lin turned to look at the girl beside her, her gaze resting on her beautiful face, suddenly asking, “Xiao Jing, do you think it’s a sha if Professor Qiao is never found?”
Qiao Jing, with a cool deanor, was also watching the news on the TV. Hearing Qiao Lin’s words, she nodded, her tone carrying a sense of regret.
“It is indeed a sha. Professor Qiao’s disappearance is a loss for the entire country, I still hope he can be found soon.”
The two were talking when a girl with long curly hair, a year older than Qiao Lin, walked in from outside.
She was Qiao Lin’s elder sister—Qiao Hong.
Qiao Hong looked at Qiao Lin and Qiao Jing on the sofa, her face full of gossip. “You two should stop chatting, I’ve heard that one from the Zhan Family has gone to the seaside again. Let’s go take a look.”
“Wow, that Zhan Family mber sure is persistent and determined!”
Qiao Lin exclaid, then grabbed Qiao Jing’s hand and said, “Xiao Jing, you haven’t seen what he looks like, let tell you, he’s really super handso.”
“Besides being handso, he’s incredibly devoted. It’s said that since his wife disappeared, he’s been searching and waiting for her to return.”
“Such n are truly rare in the world. It would be a sha not to see him!”
As Qiao Lin spoke, she pulled Qiao Jing off the sofa, “Let’s go, we’ll take you to see him.”
Qiao Jing shook her head lightly, seemingly uninterested, “Second sister, you and elder sister go ahead, I don’t want to go.”
“Co on, let’s go, the three of us together.”
Qiao Lin affectionately linked her arm with Qiao Jing’s, persuasively saying, “You’ve been unwell these past years, recovering at ho, rarely going out. Now that you’ve recovered, you shouldn’t stay indoors too much, lest you get sick from staying ho.”
Qiao Hong echoed, “Yes, yes. The weather’s nice today, let’s go out, get so fresh air!”
At this mont, a middle-aged woman descended from the stairs on the second floor.
The middle-aged woman was Jiang Youyi, the mother of Qiao Hong and Qiao Lin.
Drawn by the commotion, Jiang Youyi had co downstairs to see what was happening.
Upon descending, she saw Qiao Hong and Qiao Lin taking Qiao Jing out and quickly asked, “Where are you two taking your little sister?”
Qiao Hong spoke first, “Mom, we’re just thinking of taking her out to breathe so fresh air and see the outside scenery.”
Qiao Lin chid in, “Xiao Jing has been at ho for so long, earlier always bedridden, her health has improved lately, she needs to go out, exercise a little.”
Hearing her daughters speak this way, Jiang Youyi nodded and gently said, “Going out is good, but you must take good care of your little sister, okay?”
“Okay, okay, we know.”
“Mom, don’t worry, go back upstairs and rest. We’ll take good care of Xiao Jing.”
Qiao Lin and Qiao Hong responded in succession.
Jiang Youyi gave so additional instructions before turning back to the second floor.
Once Jiang Youyi left, Qiao Lin grabbed Qiao Jing’s hand and sighed, “It’s also tough on you, pretending to be my mom’s youngest daughter, being our sister for these years, it’s not easy for you.”
Her mother had originally given birth to three daughters, Qiao Hong being the eldest, and she the second, but the youngest passed away not long after birth.
The death of the youngest dealt a heavy blow to her mother, causing her to beco ntally unstable, in a constant daze, always believing her youngest daughter hadn’t died…
