1754 Relieved (1/2)

Kang Shuhui thought that it was possible. ”I've been looking actually. Lingtian isn't as heartless as he thought towards Tianxin. It's just that he didn't realize it himself. Didn't you notice that he's not really himself after Tianxin left? In addition to the shock from the incident of Guan family this time, he might have really gone to look for Tianxin!?”

Mo Jianzhang started to waver as well. ”What if he didn't? It's inappropriate for you to just look for her out of a sudden!”

Kang Shuhui hesitated. ”I don't want to bother Tianxin as well. I'm too embarrassed to call her... Fine, we'll wait until tomorrow and see if there's news…”

…

A night passed.

Mo Lingtian was still nowhere to be found.

Kang Shuhui finally broke down. She could not care about anything else anymore. She punched in Tianxin's number with her trembling fingers.

”Hello?”

Kang Shuhui could not hold it in anymore when she heard that gentle voice. She sobbed, ”Tianxin... I... I am Lingtian's mother…”

”Madam Mo?” She sounded surprised.

”Am I bothering you resting?” Kang Shuhui was apologetic.

”No, it's afternoon around here, but you... It's really early... What's happened?”

Kang Shuhui felt even guiltier after she heard the girl's gentle and polite words. She felt a heat sear across her face. She would understand even if Tianxin hung up on her call right now, but this girl was just as kind as ever even after going through so much.

”Tianxin, I'm really sorry to bother you. I'll state my matter quickly. Did Lingtian look for you in the past few days?” Kang Shuhui asked anxiously.

There was a short silence when Mo Lingtian's name was mentioned. ”No.”

”No?” Kang Shuhui's expression froze when her last glimmer of hope faded. Her heart sank.
