"Okay. I'm feeling achy all over from lying around at home, so I'd like to go out for a walk.
Wait a minute, I'll ask your brother to make some arrangements."
“Mom, my brother is in the study, not in his room.
If you want to find him, go directly to the study."
Ruan Qingwan turned around, and Shi Qi immediately spoke up to remind her.
Nodding, Ruan Qingwan left immediately.
After coming out of Shi Qi's room, Ruan Qingwan walked towards Li Shaoyu's study.
When she walked outside the study, she heard it was quiet inside. Ruan Qingwan didn't call anyone and pushed the door open and went in.
As soon as the door opened, Ruan Qingwan looked puzzled.
Your son is not here?
Didn’t Chuchu say that he was in the study just now?
Is he busy again?
Coming down from upstairs, Ruan Qingwan saw the servant cleaning downstairs and asked casually.
"Have you seen the young master?"
"Yes, Madam. I was cleaning the vase just now when I saw the young master hurried away with a coat in his hand."
Ruan Qingwan nodded, it seemed that her son was busy.
Never mind, it’s just shopping.
No prior arrangements are necessary.
"Go tell the driver to wait for me and the young lady at home tomorrow morning.
Let’s go shopping tomorrow.”
"Yes, ma'am."
The servant quickly left the living room with a handkerchief in hand to deliver the message.
"How's it going, Mom?"
Seeing Ruan Qingwan going upstairs, Shi Qi's eyes were filled with anticipation.
"Of course, no problem. I've already told the driver to wait for me at home tomorrow morning."
Shi Qi breathed a sigh of relief and continued:
"Brother, didn't he stop me?"
Ruan Qingwan shook her head and said indifferently:
"No.
Your brother went out to do something busy. I went to the study just now and didn't see him.
I'll just let him know when he comes back later.
But it won't take long to go out and buy some ink, and your brother won't stop us."
Seeing Ruan Qingwan's confident words, Shi Qi didn't think too much about it, but secretly planned for tomorrow's outing.
Ruan Qingwan planned to wait for Li Shaoyu to come back in the evening and tell him about going out tomorrow.
As a result, until 11 o'clock in the evening, Li Shaoyu still hadn't returned home.
She told the nanny at home and asked her to wait for the young master to come back and give him a heads up. Ruan Qingwan couldn't hold on any longer and went upstairs to rest.
The next day, Shiqi woke up at dawn.
Looking at the dawn light breaking in the sky, Shi Qi got up and went to the closet to pick out clothes suitable for walking.
She tied all her hair back into a bun, put all the cash she had on hand into her pocket, and turned to open the door.
The nanny had already prepared breakfast. When she saw Shi Qi coming downstairs, she called her "Miss" politely.
Shi Qi responded and looked upstairs:
"Are mom and brother up yet?"
The nanny said:
"My wife hasn't woken up yet, but she'll probably be up soon.
The young master didn't come back last night."
The nanny became uneasy when she remembered that the lady had asked her last night to tell the young master that the lady and the young lady were going out today.
"Didn't come back all night?"
Shi Qining frowned and looked at the neat and empty door.
"Brother left home so early, why haven't you come back yet?"
“Yes ma’am.
Last night, Madam asked me to wait for the young master, but I waited until three o'clock and he didn't come back."
Ruan Qingwan dressed and came down from upstairs. She saw the nanny talking to her daughter. Both of them had serious expressions on their faces. She asked curiously:
"What's wrong? Who didn't come back?"
Sitting at the dining table, Ruan Qingwan saw that Li Shaoyu's seat was empty. Thinking of the nanny's words just now, she asked in confusion:
"You were just saying that Shaoyu didn't come back all night?"
Looking at her daughter worriedly, Ruan Qingwan asked doubtfully:
"Could it be that there's a major problem at work and Shaoyu needs to rush over to deal with it overnight?"
Shi Qi shook his head, not knowing why Li Shaoyu didn't return home.
But she had a vague intuition in her heart that if he didn't come back, something big must have happened in the Qu family, forcing him to go and deal with it.
Confused and confused, Shi Qi consoled Ruan Qingwan:
"Brother has always been rigorous in his work, nothing will happen to him.
If we're really worried, we can call my brother's office and ask if he's working."
Ruan Qingwan nodded in agreement:
"I have his office number. Chuchu, have breakfast first and I'll call and ask."
Shi Qi nodded, watched Ruan Qingwan take out a phone book and dial one of the numbers.
Looking at her expression, which changed from solemn to relaxed and then to calm, Shi Qi felt more and more that something was wrong.
When she finished the call, Shi Qi immediately said:
"Is there something wrong at my job?"
Ruan Qingwan shook her head:
"No, there was a problem in your father's army.
Your brother went to help deal with it.
We can eat without worry, everything will be fine.
Your brother will be back tonight."
After hearing this, Shi Qi felt even more restless.
force?
Li family troops?
Could it be that something went wrong with Gu Chijin?
If Shi Qi was worried when he heard that Li Shaoyu had not returned all night, then now when he heard that something had happened in the army, Shi Qi was completely scared.
She was very suspicious that something might have happened to Gu Chijin, and Li Shaoyu was afraid that she would worry, so he wanted to hide it from her.
This feeling of not knowing how things are going and having to guess everything is terrible.
Shi Qi's mind was in turmoil as he thought about all sorts of possibilities. He was almost restless throughout breakfast.
No, she must rush back to the military family compound as soon as possible to check.
After finishing his meal, Shi Qi felt the nine hundred yuan in his pocket and looked at the black car parked in the courtyard. An idea in his mind became more firm.
