The children followed Zhao Xuan into the kitchen and began to work. Although their movements were still a little clumsy, their earnestness was touching. As Zhao Xuan guided them, she silently prayed for Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun, hoping they would be safe and sound.
As night fell, the children finished their dinner under Zhao Xuan's care, and then sat together in the courtyard, gazing at the stars and looking forward to Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun's return.
Gu Shulan pointed to the brightest star in the sky and said to her younger siblings, "That star is Dad and Mom's guardian star. It will protect them and help them come back safely."
Gu Yichen, Gu Zichen, and Gu Ziyao all looked up at the star, their hearts filled with hope.
As night deepened, the children gradually fell asleep under Zhao Xuan's soothing touch. In their dreams, their parents returned and brought them many gifts.
Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun drove to a remote place, then stored the car in their spatial storage and took a hovercar directly towards the Tibetan area.
The hovercar carrying Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun streaked across the night sky, moving at an incredible speed and disappearing into the horizon almost in the blink of an eye.
"Brother Nanxun, where should we look for him now?!"
Lin Qing gazed out the window at the endless darkness outside. The night was terrifyingly dark, and a sense of melancholy crept into her heart. She only knew that she had to go to Tibet to find her older brother, but she had no clue which direction to go or how to find him.
Upon hearing this, Gu Nanxun reached out and shook Lin Qing's hand, then said firmly, "Don't worry, let's go see Uncle's people first. Before we came, I had Uncle call his people. Uncle's people will find out where Big Brother disappeared, and we'll go to search along the route where Big Brother disappeared in a little while."
"Can my uncle's men really find out where my older brother disappeared?"
Ever since she boarded the hovercar, Lin Qing's heart had been pounding. She asked with some concern, "The military will definitely keep the place where my brother disappeared a secret; it probably won't be easy to find."
“My brother has been missing for over a week. Although the military has issued a secrecy order, too many people know about it, and news will inevitably leak out. Moreover, my uncle has connections in the military, so it won't be difficult for him to find out where he disappeared.”
Gu Nanxun patted Lin Qing's arm to comfort her.
Lin Qing nodded, feeling a little more at ease, but she was still extremely worried. Her older brother had been missing for a week, and a lot could have happened in that time. Lin Qing dared not think any further.
The hovercar continued its high-speed journey through the night sky, and Lin Qing's emotions rose and fell with the scenery outside the window. She gripped Gu Nanxun's hand tightly, trying to draw strength from him.
"Brother Nanxun, could it be that my older brother has already..." Lin Qing's voice choked with emotion; she dared not utter the worst possible words.
Gu Nanxun squeezed her hand tightly and said firmly, "No, Lin Qing. My brother is a strong person. He must be waiting for us somewhere to rescue him. We can't give up hope."
Lin Qing nodded. She knew Gu Nanxun was right; now was not the time to give up. She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
The hovercar finally came to a stop at the foot of a secluded mountain. It was surrounded by dense forest, with only one narrow path leading into the depths.
"We've arrived," Gu Nanxun said softly.
They got out of the hovercar, stored it in their spatial storage, and then switched to Gu Nanxun's car. The two walked along a path for a while and arrived at a hidden cave. The entrance to the cave was covered by vines and bushes, and was almost impossible to spot without careful observation.
"Here?" Lin Qing asked in confusion.
