Chapter 1198 - 1201: Which Step Went Wrong?
Unexpectedly, Little Sheng Sheng stopped crying after she said these words.
With Little Sheng Sheng not crying, Little Zun Zun also miraculously quieted down.
Chenxing’s heart finally felt some relief.
This manor is excellently designed in every aspect; the bedroom is well designed too. However, during the design phase, they didn’t consider children. Now, there’s not even a crib for the kids. She can only squeeze in with the two children on one bed.
In the other bedroom, Huanhuan woke up as well.
In her dazed state, she discovered heavy snow outside and ran out at once, only to find out from the housemaids that this place is Melbourne. She had been sent to Australia while in a stupor!
She almost exploded with anger!
The first thing she did was to call Nan Baihao, and for the first time, the man refused to answer his wife’s call. He discreetly flew back to Canada and returned to the Gu Family. As he faced Bai Wuqing and Nan Baihao, he shook his head powerlessly: "I can’t find brother. I’ve investigated all possible connections."
"Brother stayed in America for five days. Some say they saw his plane leave the airport, but the plane didn’t land back in City E. I checked the flight records; there’s no record. He didn’t fly in his private jet. In total, with his bodyguard, Doctor Tian, two other accompanying doctors, secretaries—19 people—none of them can be found, as if they’ve vanished into thin air."
Yan Fengchi, using his own network, still couldn’t find any movements in Canada: "Could it be an airplane accident?"
"Impossible! Yesterday, I found the plane; it’s still parked in a private airport in Philadelphia, America."
Bai Wuqing furrowed his brows tightly: "Shaocheng wouldn’t disappear so many days without contacting us. Even in such a situation, it is impossible for all their phones to be unreachable. Shaocheng must have really encountered something. I’ve thought about it, and the Gu Family now believes Shaocheng is at the edge, focusing entirely on the Pelican plan, so it can’t be an internal issue. Where exactly is the problem? We can only find the cause externally."
"What did brother go to America for this time?"
We must start from the roots.
Yan Fengchi asked this question, and Nan Baihao immediately replied: "Brother met with a few political leaders and moguls in America; their names are listed on this paper—the list includes a finance tycoon, a chemical giant, an arms magnate, and two members of the American Congress. I’ve tried scheduling a meeting with them several times but couldn’t get through, possibly due to my insufficient experience. But the information I found tells me brother didn’t have any conflicts with them. On the fourth night when brother was in America, he even hosted a banquet at a very private club, serving them dinner. From the waitstaff there, I heard there were no conflicts at the banquet, everyone was chatting and laughing, seemingly having a good time. After the banquet ended, brother returned to the hotel and he even called me that night, saying he would return to City E the next day. However, when the next day came, I went to the airport to receive him, but he didn’t arrive. By afternoon, when I tried calling again, everyone had vanished."
"Then what exactly was brother doing in America?"
Nan Baihao was frantic: "That night on the phone, brother told me it was for something related to children. Brother had made deals involving children before, but over the phone, he sounded upbeat, not in a bad mood, and even mentioned he had unexpectedly secured a major deal, a significant profit, the biggest transaction for the Gu Family this year."
