Chapter 1083: Chapter 1083: Departure for J City
Jiangli sat by the bed, casually flipping through the stack of maps beside her, and said, “Things happened quite suddenly, I didn’t expect it either.”
Fu Shiyan sighed, sounding rather plaintive, “We agreed to meet tomorrow, didn’t we?”
Jiangli chuckled, “The situation arose suddenly, Mr. Fu, don’t hold it against me. I’ll have dinner with you when I get back.”
Fu Shiyan took the opportunity to ask, “Then when will Lili be back?”
Jiangli paused, “It might take two or three days, I’ll try to go and return as early as possible.”
Fu Shiyan seemed to realize it was unavoidable and didn’t press further, saying, “Let me know when you’re back, I’ll pick you up.”
Jiangli responded with an okay, and the conversation between them ended.
After putting down the phone, Jiangli looked at the map and hardly slept the entire night.
…
At around seven o’clock the next morning, Jiangli and Xia Xin were already on the plane.
When they landed in J City, it was ten o’clock in the morning.
As soon as they came out of the passage, Jiangli and Xia Xin heard a familiar voice calling out.
“Abbot, Master Xia Xin, over here, over here!”
Jiangli and Xia Xin looked in the direction of the voice and saw Wei Qingran standing not far away, waving at them incessantly.
Jiangli and Xia Xin walked over to her.
“Sister Qingran, why are you here by yourself?” Xia Xin stood in front of Wei Qingran, nervously looking around and lowering her voice, “Won’t you be recognized by fans?”
Wei Qingran was wearing large sunglasses and a mask. Hearing this, she pointed to the hat on her head, “With this gear, how could fans recognize me? Besides, the fans all think I’m filming in B City, surely they wouldn’t expect me to be here.”
Moreover, she didn’t feel at ease without coming over personally.
Xia Xin looked around and, seeing that no one was paying attention to them, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“Let’s go now, before we’re noticed,” Xia Xin, acting like a concerned little fan, said anxiously.
Wei Qingran smiled, and as she led them outside, she said, “Abbot, the car is right outside, and Teacher Song is waiting for us in the car.”
“Teacher Song is here too?” Xia Xin asked in surprise.
Wei Qingran nodded heavily, “It’s about Little Caihong… Teacher Song is quite worried and couldn’t stay behind, so he came with me.”
Jiangli asked, “Where is Little Caihong now?”
“Still in the hospital,” Wei Qingran replied, “But Little Caihong is quite stable now. After the leg bone was set, it seems everything’s fine. Last night, when he saw Teacher Song, he was very well-behaved and told Teacher Song not to worry or be sad. He seems to be okay.”
While speaking, Wei Qingran observed Jiangli’s expression cautiously.
Having seen Little Caihong firsthand yesterday, she couldn’t help but doubt if Jiangli had truly seen it wrong.
It’s just a fractured leg. To recover, Little Caihong has to stay in the hospital for a while and can’t leave temporarily.
What could happen while staying in a hospital?
Wei Qingran was a bit skeptical in her heart.
Jiangli saw through what Wei Qingran was thinking and said calmly, “Let’s go to the hospital first.”
Wei Qingran nodded, “Alright, that’s what we thought too. This way, Abbot.”
Wei Qingran made a gesture of invitation, leading Jiangli and Xia Xin to the parking lot.
Song Wenjun’s nanny van was waiting for them in the parking lot.
As soon as they got in, they saw Song Wenjun sitting in the back seat.
Song Wenjun sat there, tightly clasping his hands, his expression anxious and distracted, seemingly lost in thought, with his brows furrowed without a moment of relief.
