When she got close, Zhou Huiqin suddenly took two steps at a time, ran up to Jiang Qingyue, hugged her and started crying.
"Qingyue, Zhengting is missing!"
Jiang Qingyue came back to her senses when she heard Zhou Zhengting's name. With trembling fingers, she helped Zhou Huiqin up and asked, "What do you mean she's gone?"
Seeing Jiang Qingyue's distraught look, Zhou Huiqin wiped her tears and explained softly, "She disappeared at sea. Last night, they received an emergency mission to conduct a surprise attack on the enemy. The two sides fought fiercely all night. Although they won the battle, an accident occurred during the retreat."
"Zheng Ting was the last one to retreat. When everyone got on board, we discovered that he was missing."
Jiang Qingyue subconsciously didn't want to believe it, "Could the news be wrong? If he really is missing, his subordinates should call me. I didn't receive a call from the company."
Zhou Huiqin sobbed, "The island is in chaos now. I just found out about it after receiving a call from the hospital. Zhengting's parents received a call this morning and both of them are now in the hospital."
"I came here just to tell you first, so that you can be mentally prepared. The island is still searching and rescuing people—"
Jiang Qingyue no longer had the patience to listen any further, and stretched out her trembling hands to hold Zhou Huiqin's shoulders, "Sister, I want to go over there, can you use your connections to help me get the fastest flight?"
"What? Where are you going?"
"Go to South Island. I want to find Zhou Zhengting."
"It's a mess over there now, you'd better not go over there. We will be notified immediately if there is any news over there."
"Sister, he's waiting for me. I have to go. I have to go to South Island, right now."
Seeing that she insisted on going, Zhou Huiqin softened her heart and said, "Okay, I'll call and get you a ticket right away. You should pack your things quickly."
After bringing Zhou Huiqin into the house, he made a phone call.
Jiang Qingyue quickly walked to her bedroom, found a suitcase from the top of the cabinet, and then randomly took out a few summer clothes that had just been put away from the cabinet.
He forced himself to remain calm and brought in some daily necessities.
When Wang Xiuzhi and Wang Xiuhe ran in from the kitchen, they saw Qingyue packing things calmly and numbly.
She didn't cry or make a fuss, but the flustered movements of her hands betrayed her current state.
"Qingyue, what's going on? I just heard Zhengting's sister say someone is missing?"
"Yeah? What's going on? Why is she calling to get you a plane ticket?"
Jiang Qingyue took a deep breath and tried her best not to let her tears flow.
"Mom, Auntie, something happened to Zheng Ting in South Island. He is now missing at sea. I plan to go look for him right now."
"What?"
After hearing Jiang Qingyue's words, Wang Xiuzhi and Wang Xiuhe were both stunned.
"Oh my God, what can I do?"
"Let your third brother go with you so that he can take care of you on the way."
Jiang Qingyue shook her head. "It's hard to get a plane ticket now. I can go alone. Don't worry, I will take good care of myself."
"Two children, and family matters—"
Wang Xiuzhi saw her daughter trying hard to speak and couldn't help interrupting, "Don't worry about home, we are here, just you. When you get there, you must stay calm and don't act rashly."
"Yes, you still have two children, and Zhou Zhengting doesn't want to see you do anything stupid for him."
Jiang Qingyue tried hard to force a smile, "Don't worry, no matter what the result is, I will come back safely."
Just as Wang Xiuzhi and Wang Xiuhe were wiping their tears and helping Jiang Qingyue pack her luggage.
The two children, Chenchen and Anan, also came back from playing outside.
"Mom, where are we going?"
The two children were puzzled when they saw Jiang Qingyue packing up.
Jiang Qingyue forced a smile, "Mom needs to go to South Island first to find Dad."
"Without us?"
"We want to go and find dad, too."
Jiang Qingyue choked up, squatted down and touched the heads of the two children, "Mom will go see if everything is okay over there. If it is, I will come back to pick you up, okay?"
Seeing this, the two children had no choice but to nod and agree.
An An then pulled Chen Chen, and the two of them ran to the next room together.
After a while, he walked in again with a few paintings in his hands.
"Mom, here, bring it to Dad."
Jiang Qingyue looked down and found that it was a painting drawn by two children.
That was exactly what she had asked her child to do a few days ago, asking him to draw more pictures and send them to his father.
Who knows it hasn't been sent out yet...
Jiang Qingyue's eyes were sore for a moment, then she took the painting from the two children, carefully folded it and put it into her luggage bag.
At this time, Zhou Huiqin also hung up the phone and walked in from the main room.
"Qingyue, I've got the plane ticket for tonight. There's no need to rush over now. Stay at home and spend some time with the kids. I'll pick you up later and take you to the airport."
"Originally I wanted to go with you, but my uncle and aunt are still in the hospital, and I'm worried."
Jiang Qingyue came back to her senses when Zhou Zhengting's parents were mentioned.
I hurriedly asked, "Are they okay in the hospital now?"
Speaking of this, Zhou Huiqin sighed, "Uncle is better, just has high blood pressure, but aunt's health has always been poor. She just had heart surgery a few years ago. I'm afraid she can't stand such a big shock."
"I asked about it when I came from the hospital just now, and they said that I can only stay in the hospital for observation and slowly recover. The main thing is--"
As she was talking, Zhou Huiqin couldn't go on.
The main reason was that I didn’t want to mention Zhou Zhengting’s disappearance in front of the two children.
