"Fu Wenzhou!"
Song Qingyou suddenly woke up from the sofa.
Fu Bei handed over a glass of warm water and medicine.
Song Qingyou rubbed her eyes wearily; she had just dreamt of Fu Wenzhou again.
After drinking the medicine, she asked, "Any news?"
Fu Bei felt a pang of guilt: "No."
Song Qingyou has been tired and weary of hearing these two words lately.
She waved her hand, signaling Fu Bei to leave.
The door closed, and Song Qingyou wearily closed her eyes again. Her phone suddenly rang, and she glanced at it before answering: "Uncle Chang."
"Miss, how are you? Why does your voice sound so weak?" Song Chang asked with concern.
Song Qingyou said softly, "I'm fine."
Hearing her say that, Song Chang didn't ask any more questions. He wanted to ask if Young Master Fu had been found, but he was worried that it would upset the young lady even more. He opened his mouth, but finally got to the point: "The court verdict is in. Luo Yuan has been sentenced to life imprisonment..."
"Okay." Song Qingyou said, "You don't need to report to me about those people from the Luo family anymore."
"Luo Yuan requests to see you, saying there's something you should be very interested in knowing."
Song Qingyou frowned slightly: "What is it?"
“Yes—” Song Chang said in a low voice, “It’s about the lady.”
Song Qingyou froze. "My mom?"
"right."
Song Qingyou's eyes darkened: "I understand. I'll go after I find Fu Wenzhou."
“Okay.” Song Chang said with some worry, “I always felt that Luo Yuan had ill intentions, but Miss doesn’t need to pay any attention to him.”
Song Qingyou said calmly, "It just so happens that he needs to sign the equity transfer agreement for the Song family. He'll have to go sooner or later."
Upon hearing this, Song Chang replied, "That's true."
"Is there anything else, Uncle Chang?"
"Um... Miss, when will you be back?"
Song Qingyou propped herself up and stood up: "I'll go back once I find Fu Wenzhou."
After hanging up the phone, Song Qingyou went out to find Gu Bai and Xu Zezhan.
She forced herself to eat and sleep during this period, and if she couldn't sleep, she would take sleeping pills to force herself to sleep. Her complexion has finally improved and she doesn't look as scary as she did a few days ago.
When Gu Bai saw her coming, he quickly waved and said, "I was just about to go up and call you."
Song Qingyou looked exhausted: "Where's Xu Zezhan?"
Gu Bai glanced down at his watch: "They went with the helicopter, they should be back soon."
Before he could finish speaking, Xu Zezhan came in from outside, and Gu Bai immediately went to greet him: "How is it? Any news?"
Xu Zezhan paused, then slowly shook his head.
After so many days without any news, everyone had a vague idea of the outcome, but no one believed it.
They have consistently devoted a great deal of manpower and resources to searching here day after day.
Xu Zezhan looked at Song Qingyou and Gu Bai, and after a long silence, he spoke in a deep voice: "No news. We can't go deeper into the forest. Two mercenaries are already seriously injured. We haven't found anyone after so many days. They're probably..."
Xu Zezhan choked for a moment, then said with difficulty, "Qingyou, we can't go on like this."
Gu Bai suddenly punched Xu Zezhan in the face: "What the hell are you talking about! The three of us grew up together. Fu Wenzhou is in trouble, and you're saying you won't look for him anymore? Are you even a brother?!"
Gu Bai was panting heavily, furious to the extreme. He used all his strength in that punch, and Xu Zezhan's cheek swelled up instantly.
His expression slowly darkened. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand, his face grim and terrifying: "What else do you want? Is it that I don't want to save them? Is it that I don't want to search? After searching for so many days, have you found a single clue? If those two mercenaries die, you'll be held here! You'll never be able to go home again!"
Xu Zezhan laughed angrily: "I've been into the Misty Forest several times these past few days, huh? Have you ever cared about me? Fu Wenzhou is your brother, but I'm not. Gu Bai, you're always so selfish, only considering your own feelings. From childhood to adulthood, which trouble you've caused wasn't cleaned up by me? You come to me when something goes wrong, and blame me when you can't solve it? Are you a giant baby?"
Gu Bai stood there stunned, his eyes fixed on Xu Zezhan, his chest heaving violently. He opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a single word.
"You and Gu Bai should go back to China first," Song Qingyou said slowly. "I'll take responsibility if anything happens here."
Xu Zezhan's face remained grim. He stopped looking at Gu Bai and turned to Song Qingyou, saying, "Blindly searching like this isn't a solution. I know Wenzhou well; he must have left signals along the way. So tomorrow, I'll go deep into the area with the remaining mercenaries and use smoke as a signal. Once you see the smoke, have someone bring in a helicopter."
Gu Bai was stunned for a moment, his mouth moving faster than his brain: "You...you weren't leaving?"
Xu Zezhan didn't even look at him, and said to Song Qingyou, "Don't worry, as long as he's alive, I will definitely bring him out safely."
This sounds more like a promise.
Song Qingyou's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she said in a hoarse voice, "I'm sorry."
Xu Zezhan: "No need to apologize. He's not only your man, but also my friend. You want to find him, and so do I."
After saying this, he turned and walked upstairs. Gu Bai hesitated for a moment, wanting to follow him, but lacking the courage.
Xu Zezhan's expression just now was more terrifying than he had ever seen before.
Gu Bai felt guilty for misunderstanding someone because he hadn't heard them completely.
“He’s been more tired than us lately.” Song Qingyou looked at Gu Bai: “Go explain it to him, otherwise he’ll be even more tired.”
Gu Bai clenched his fists, hesitated for a few seconds, and finally gritted his teeth and chased after him.
