"Has the third son's wife not returned?"
Mr. Chen asked Mrs. Chen.
"Upstairs."
Grandma Chen said, "You and Lanlan didn't have much time to get into the house after you left by car."
Upon hearing this, Old Master Chen's face showed no emotion, but the oppressive aura emanating from him spoke volumes about his current mood.
Li Jumei sat to the side holding her second child, listening to the conversation between Old Mrs. Chen and Old Mr. Chen without interrupting.
Even in his expression, it was hard to see anything unusual.
"Grandpa! Grandma! I'm home!"
That was Chen Dongxu's voice. As the voice faded, he entered the living room carrying large and small bags. Upon seeing Li Jumei, he immediately flashed a bright white smile.
"Second Aunt, you're here! Huh? Where are my second uncle, Lanlan, and brother-in-law?"
"Yes, that's right. I was going to ask that, but I forgot after seeing Da Bao and Er Bao. Old man, tell me quickly, why didn't I see Er Bao, Lan Lan, and Xiao Qin come home with you?"
Grandma Chen looked at Grandpa Chen, her eyes filled with doubt.
Grandpa Chen opened his mouth, unsure of what to say. Seeing this, Li Jumei said, "Mom, Sanhe and Lanlan have something to take care of."

Li Jumei didn't know how to continue.

"Why would Lanlan go on a train bound for Heilongjiang Province?"
Mrs. Chen was puzzled.
Grandpa Chen: "Didn't I say that Lanlan had her reasons for doing that?"
"Grandpa, what reason could there be? I hope nothing bad has happened to my little sister Lanlan."
Chen Dongxu frowned deeply, his eyes revealing his deep worry.
"Old man, Lanlan... what if something happens to Lanlan?"
Upon hearing Chen Dongxu's words, Old Mrs. Chen immediately became restless!
Before Grandpa Chen could speak, Li Jumei said directly, "Mom, Lanlan will be fine, don't worry!"
Li Jumei said this not only to Old Mrs. Chen, but also to herself.
How can I be at ease with this?
Mrs. Chen was very worried.
