Chapter 697: Love Takes Root (142)
"Don’t." Long Fengxi closed the door and went to the outer office.
"Knock knock knock." The secretary came in, saw that Shen Congmo wasn’t there, placed a stack of documents on the desk, "Madam, when Mr. Shen comes out, please have him review these."
"Alright."
The secretary left, and Long Fengxi casually picked up the stack of documents to look over, finding that these were client files of VIP customers who had appointments for plastic surgery.
She flipped through them carelessly, but then saw Shi Fei’s name on the list.
Seeing this name, Long Fengxi subconsciously brought her file to the front.
The file indicated that Shi Fei had two plastic surgery procedures scheduled: one was double eyelid surgery, and the other was liposuction.
When Shen Congmo came out, she raised the file, "Shi Fei’s."
Shen Congmo came over, took it from her hand, glanced at it, and casually put it on the desk, "She is a VIP client of our hospital, I’ve known for a while. The nose bridge implant was done at our branch, I swear to heaven, I haven’t seen her in a long, long time."
"Did I say anything?" Long Fengxi hugged him, resting her face on his body, "Just thinking of that person makes me sick."
"Let’s not talk about her anymore, baby, are you hungry?"
"I wasn’t until you mentioned it, now I really am."
"Then let’s go eat something delicious." He picked up his overcoat, put it on, and took her hand as they left.
They arrived at their favorite restaurant, and just after ordering, both of their phones rang almost simultaneously.
Long Fengxi glanced at the caller ID, "It’s my sister-in-law."
"Mine is your brother."
"Let’s answer together." Long Fengxi said, then pressed the answer button, "Hello, sister-in-law."
"..."
Long Fengxi’s face changed dramatically, she suddenly stood up, her eyes instantly reddening, and exclaimed, "What!!! Okay, I got it, I’m with Cong Mo, we’ll hurry back now."
Shen Congmo also hung up Long Yubei’s call, and the couple, canceling their order, rushed out in panic.
They got in the car, and Shen Congmo sped all the way to Qin Garden.
Long Fengxi hurriedly took out her phone to check the news, which had indeed already been reported.
The headline read: Airplane X587 has crashed!
The content was: A plane from S country heading to the capital airport of T country encountered an accident while passing over the territory of V country. The plane carrying 256 passengers and 13 crew members crashed into the Nile Tal Sea.
Long Fengxi couldn’t make out the rest of the content as her vision was completely blurred by tears.
She held her phone, and a heart-wrenching cry erupted from her chest, "How could this happen?! Tian Jiao!!! Ahhh—"
She cried all the way to Qin Garden, where nearly all the Long Family had already gathered.
Everyone was wailing together, while Liang He sat there as if soulless, tears flowing nonstop like a broken faucet.
He simply couldn’t believe that his love, who had been playing and laughing with him in the morning, was now separated from him by life and death in just a few short hours.
Now he was waiting for news from Long Yubei, who had gone to the underworld; as long as Long Tianjiao’s soul was still there, then they could find another body for her, as long as the soul was still there...
Not just him, everyone was waiting.
Gu Lili was the most devastated, as not only Long Tianjiao was on that plane, but also Antonio.
The reason the two of them were on this plane was because Long Tianjiao was going to T country to shoot a photo spread and magazine cover, and Antonio took the opportunity to go home for the New Year, joining a magazine’s photography team on the trip.
