Sheng Xuan eased off the accelerator and asked anxiously, "Where's Ning Qi? Still no news from him?"
The reply from the other end of the phone was: "Brother Qi's subordinates are still investigating. They just said that A Lang drove away from the pet hospital more than half an hour ago and then headed to the suburbs."
"Which direction?" Sheng Xuan asked.
Ning Po hurriedly explained, "She was originally heading to her place, but then she changed direction and drove towards the airport. Ah Xuan, Qi Ge just said that Ah Lang parked his car in the airport parking lot fifteen minutes ago."
Sheng Xuan was relieved upon hearing this and stepped on the gas to continue speeding towards the airport.
"Thank you! I'll go to the airport to stop her right now."
Ning Po asked hurriedly, "Should we go over and help? What happened to A Lang?"
“I don’t know the specifics either.” Sheng Xuan said in a deep voice, “She has kept a lot of things from us, and they are not good things! I will go and stop her first. You can help me monitor remotely and find out which flight she booked at the last minute.”
"Okay, wait for my message." Ning Po hung up hurriedly.
When Sheng Xuan arrived at the airport entrance, she saw the parking lot sign and quickly went inside.
There were many cars in the parking lot, but very few empty spaces. He found a place to park nearby and then got out of the car to look around.
A minute later, he spotted Ning Lang's SUV.
He rushed forward and found the car parked under the shade of trees, empty inside. Green's pet greenhouse, which had been in the back seat, was also gone.
He looked again carefully but found no other usable information.
Unlike other girls who like to display cute dolls or hang pretty things, her car was spotless, with nothing but a pack of tissues.
Sheng Xuan turned and ran wildly towards the airport waiting room.
Airports are never short of people; crowds throng, coming and going in a hurry.
He looked left and right, but unfortunately he couldn't see her anywhere.
Unwilling to give up, he rushed towards the security checkpoint ahead.
A staff member stopped him. "Sir, please show me your ticket and relevant documents."
Sheng Xuan, slightly out of breath, said, "Excuse me, I'm looking for someone..."
"I'm sorry," the staff member said in a businesslike tone, "you can contact your friend to come out, but you refuse to go in."
Sheng Xuan hurriedly took out her phone and dialed that most familiar number again.
"Sorry, the number you dialed cannot be reached."
Sheng Xuan angrily put away her phone and rushed towards the information desk in front of her.
"Hello! Could you please check if there is a passenger named Ning Lang? Has she already boarded the plane?"
The staff member tapped on the computer keyboard, asked how to write the character "琅", and then shook his head: "Sir, I'm sorry, we do not have this passenger's boarding information at the moment."
Sheng Xuan hurriedly turned around and rushed into the luxury stores in the airport, searching one by one, not even missing a small corner of the coffee shop.
Unfortunately, they still came up empty-handed.
He frowned, watching the crowds coming and going in the airport, his heart clenching, so flustered that he couldn't utter a word.
Suddenly, his phone vibrated!
He pulled it out with a delighted expression—only to find it was Ah Bai from the herbal tea shop.
—Happy New Year, Xuan-ge!
Sheng Xuan hurried through the crowd, glancing left and right, and replied perfunctorily, "Happy New Year."
Ah Bai laughed and said, "Our herbal tea shop is closed for a week during the Chinese New Year holiday. Those two went off to have some alone time. When are you coming back? Miss Ning paid me overtime pay for the holidays, so you have to let me protect them a little, don't make me neglect my duty!"
Sheng Xuan paused, frowned, and asked, "She... paid you overtime pay? When?"
