Chapter 179: Inexplicably Confident in Him
"That's easy. I'll have someone register for you. There shouldn't be many classes this semester. If you can spare a month, I'll book a driving school for you to practice."
I said with a playful smile, "Don't the overbearing CEOs in novels always get their driver's licenses with just one phone call?"
The longer I spend with him, the more relaxed I feel. I feel much more comfortable than when I am with my parents.
"Read less meaningless novels about overbearing CEOs. I'll get you a driver's license, and then watch you go out and become a killer."
He rolled his eyes at me and said, "But if you don't like driving, I can arrange a driver for you. I'll feel more at ease."
During the entire return journey, I just ate and slept. I was still worried about my cousin and couldn't sleep well. I even dreamed that my cousin was asking me for help in the dark, and I woke up from the dream.
After the plane landed, I called Wensong immediately: "Xiaosong, have you found my cousin?"
"Not yet. Grandma refused to tell me where she went. She only said she would come back after receiving the betrothal gift."
Under my instructions, Wensong kept a close eye on the search for his cousin.
"What about my brother-in-law?" I asked again.
"My brother-in-law hasn't gone back yet. He said he won't leave until he sees my cousin."
"Got it. I'll go back today."
Old Wu drove the Range Rover to the airport. Xiao Shiqiu asked him to go back by himself, and then drove directly to L County from the airport.
On the way, I told Xiao Shiqiu about the incident when my cousin's grandmother tore up her admission ticket during the college entrance examination.
"How could there be such a bad old lady? And that bad old lady is my own grandmother."
I said angrily, "I think it's most likely my grandma who hid the person."
He thought for a moment, "From what you said, it's very likely that your grandmother is hiding someone. I wonder how your brother-in-law found him. Do you have his phone number?"
"No."
"Go get his phone number first and ask him what he has done."
I thought about it and called my uncle, "Uncle, send me my brother-in-law's phone number. I have something to ask him."
The uncle was silent for a moment, "Mengmeng, do you know something?"
I said truthfully, "I don't know much, but when I came back today, my cousin must have been hidden. You know it's definitely wrong for grandma to do this. You won't help grandma hide it, right?"
The uncle said anxiously, "Of course I won't, but your grandma never tells me the truth, and she doesn't listen to me. And your uncle listens to your grandma the most. I'm so anxious now, I don't know what to do."
I interrupted him, "Uncle, please send me your brother-in-law's phone number. I'll go with him to find my sister."
Soon, my uncle sent me my brother-in-law's number and I dialed it.
The call was connected quickly. "Hello, who is this?" The voice sounded very clean, with a slight accent from the neighboring province, but not heavy.
"Brother-in-law, I'm Xia Yimeng. I don't know if my sister has mentioned me before."
The other party was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting that his sister-in-law, whom he had never met, would call him. "Oh, Mengmeng, right? Your sister talked about you. Do you know where your sister is?" His voice was very anxious, even with a hint of sob.
"I don't know right now, but I'll be back soon. I'll be there in about an hour and a half. Let's meet at my grandma's house. We'll definitely find her."
Although I had no idea how to find my sister, I felt inexplicably confident as long as Xiao Shiqiu was there.
