C27 (1/2)
In a villa area in S City
A blue Lamborghini sports car stopped outside a garden villa. Mi Yue opened the door and got off, passing through the garden. Steward Nanny Zhang came over and respectfully said, ”It's Miss Mi. Madam is in the hall of the first floor, so you should accompany her for a chat.”
Mi Yue nodded and headed straight for the parlour.
The sunlight was extremely good. Through the French windows, it covered the entire parlour.
On the sofa, a beautiful woman was resting with her eyes closed while leaning against the armrest. She was wearing elegant and noble clothes.
”Madam, Miss Mi is here!” Nanny Zhang laughed and went to pour some tea.
”Mama Xing!” Mi Yue said politely.
”Oh, it's Yue'er. Come, sit by my side!” The woman patted the sofa beside her.
Mi Yue took off her coat and handed it to the servant. She then sat down on the sofa and asked, ”Where's Grandmother?” How is she? ”
”Hmm, okay, she's probably messing with her flowers in the backyard. She doesn't believe that Ah Cheng has already …” Mrs. Zhan's voice was choked with emotions, and she didn't continue speaking. She took the tea cup that Nanny Zhang brought over and took a sip, her lips full of bitterness, ”It's good that you don't believe her, at least there's a thought.”
Two months had passed, and neither the search and rescue team they had sent to sea nor the police search and rescue team had heard anything. Everyone had prepared her mentally, and she was gradually falling into despair.
Mi Yue bit her lips and took a deep breath, trying her best not to provoke Mrs. Zhan. However, tears still welled up in her eyes. She looked at the white hair on Mrs. Zhan's head and whispered, ”Isn't the rescue team still searching for her? I wouldn't believe it even if I didn't see Nancheng with my own eyes!”
Mrs. Zhan held the teacup in her hand and lowered her eyes in silence.
”What about the company?” Mi Yue changed the topic.
”The situation has been brought under control. Fortunately, Grandma's prestige is still there. The elder who helped her stabilize the situation has been with me for the past few days. I'm just a bit exhausted.” Mrs. Zhan's mother, who had lost her child, was already in extreme pain. She had to deal with all the sudden changes in the company. Mrs. Zhan's tone was filled with exhaustion.
”If there's anything you need help with, feel free to say it. I can also help!” Mi Yue held Mrs. Zhan's hand and comforted her.
