Ning Qing received a call from Lu Shaoming at night, and he said that he would be returning tomorrow.
The next day, Ning Qing woke up very early, and even Little Young Master Lu, who was sleeping beside her, opened his eyes and was looking around curiously.
Ning Qing picked Little Young Master Lu up. Little Young Master Lu was getting heavier and heavier, and Ning Qing kissed his small, fragrant face. She had a gentle smile on her face as she said, "Little Young Master Lu, could it be that you know that Daddy is coming back today, so you are as excited as Mummy, and you are unable to sleep... Mummy hasn't seen Daddy for half a month already! I miss him very very much... Little Young Master Lu, do you miss Daddy?"
Little Young Master Lu's small hand was tugging on Mummy's shirt, and he was blabbering about.
Ning Qing kissed her son twice and carried him in her arms as she opened the door.
Both Song Yajing and Yue Wanqing were sitting in the living room. Little Young Master Lu was still too young, and both grandmothers were scared that Ning Qing was unable to take care of him, so they both stayed over here.
"Mum, Shaoming is coming home today."
Song Yajing covered her mouth and smiled as she said, "We got it, we got it. Qingqing, you have repeated this several times already."
The entire family was laughing.
Yue Wanqing carried Little Young Master Lu in her arms and fed him a little warm water before she said, "Qingqing, what time is Shaoming's flight? We will go to welcome him when the time comes."
"Sure." Ning Qing was smiling brightly with her eyebrows curved up as she said, "Two in the afternoon."
...
At 2 pm, the entire family pushed the stroller and waited in the main hall of the airport. But 2 pm passed by, and there was no sign of Lu Shaoming.
"Qingqing, how is Shaoming still not here? Did the flight get delayed?" Yue Wanqing asked.
Ning Qing had a bad premonition in her heart. Her right eyelid had been twitching for the entire day, and she comforted her mother by saying, "It seems like the flight is probably delayed. Mum, let us wait a little while longer."
They waited until three, then they waited until four, but Lu Shaoming still did not appear.
Ning Qing's heart was beating furiously, and she took her phone out to make a call, but all she got in return was the cold tone of the female voice — The number you have dialled is not available.
Ning Qing suddenly recalled something; phones are not allowed to be used on board.
She comforted herself with this fact, and suddenly, a passerby crashed into her shoulder, and the phone in her hand fell onto the floor and broke into pieces instantly.
"Sorry, Miss. Are you okay?" The passer by stooped down and helped her pick her phone up.
At this moment, "Wa! Wa..." The sound of crying came from the stroller. Little Young Master Lu started to cry.
Song Yajing held Little Young Master Lu in her arms to coax him, "Little Young Master Lu, what is wrong? Why did you burst out crying so suddenly? Come, let Mummy hug you."
Ning Qing took Little Young Master Lu in her arms, and Little Young Master Lu had big fat tears rolling down his cheeks. He was screaming at the top of his lungs.
"Little Young Master Lu, be good. Don't cry. Daddy will come back very soon...." Ning Qing gently comforted him.
At this moment, "Ning Qing." There was a wave of noise from behind her. Ning Qing turned around to have a look, and Lu Dinghua held a phone in his hands as he walked over. The butler and secretary followed close behind.
"Dinghua, why did you come here?" Song Yajing walked forward and said, "What is wrong with Shaoming? He said that he would be back at two in the afternoon, but he is still not here."
Lu Dinghua had a solemn expression on his face as he looked towards Song Yajing, then he channelled his gaze to look at Ning Qing."Ning Qing, I have just been informed..."
Ning Qing's mind was in a complete mess, and her bad premonition that she'd felt for these two weeks was written on her face right now. Her face was deathly pale as she took a step backwards.
She did not want to continue listening...
"Ning Qing, I just got news that the private jet that Shaoming was on was involved in an accident when the plane passed by Lake Baikal. The plane has crashed."
Ning Qing's irises contracted dramatically, and her ears were ringing out loudly. She was unable to clearly hear what was Lu Dinghua saying.
"What?" Song Yajing shook her head in disbelief and said, "Dinghua, you are not joking with us? Where did the plane crash? Did they find Shao Ming?"
With grief in his voice, Lu Dinghua replied, "I have already ordered some people to go over. The plane crashed in the lake; it would be difficult for them to lift the plane out of the lake..."
"Ay, Ning Qing's mother!" Song Yajing shouted out suddenly. It turns out that when Yue Wanqing heard this piece of news, her two eyes shut, and she fainted immediately.
Song Yajing ran over to help her up.
Ning Qing forgot how to react, and she did not know what she was thinking about. Little Young Master Lu in her embrace was moving around non stop, and Ning Qing lowered her gaze to have a look. Little Young Master Lu was crying so much that he was out of breath.
She felt a hot liquid roll down her face, and it immediately turned cold. She was crying, and the tears filled her entire face.
...
Yue Wanqing was sent to the hospital, and the doctor conducted a series of tests on her. He shook his head and sighed before saying, "Mrs. Lu, your mother's condition is not too bright right now. Two years ago, she had a kidney transplant. This kind of surgery can prolong the patient's life by a few years, but your mother's heart was under stress, and coupled together with the bad reaction of the kidney, her condition is not too good."
Ning Qing's small face was pale, and she looked at her mother who was lying on the hospital bed. She asked, "Then what should we do about my mother now?"
"Don't be too anxious, Mrs. Lu. Let her stay in the hospital for a while, and we will observe her for a period of time. We will use the best medication to treat her, and if the patient is able to maintain a positive spirit and comply with our aggressive treatment, we will be able to prolong her lifespan. The patient's feelings and spirit are both important."
"Okay." Ning Qing nodded her head.
The doctor left.
At this moment, Ning Zhenguo rushed over and said, "Qingqing, what happened to your mother? I heard about the matter regarding Shaoming; how did it turn out like that?"
"Dad, they have yet to find Shaoming. I believe he is fine. You do not need to worry about Shaoming. For now, I will hand Mum over to Dad for you to take care of her."
Ning Zhenguo nodded his head while he said, "Qingqing, you do not need to worry. I will take care of your mum well. Little Young Master Lu is still small. You have to take care of him. Furthermore, the fact that Shaoming ended up in an accident has spread, and there are many supporters of the Lu family, but there are also many people looking for their opportunity to lay their hands on the Lu Corporation. The Lu Corporation might have a battle for custody, and neither Mum nor Dad can help you in that matter. Qingqing, you have to take good care of yourself."
The things that Ning Zhenguo could predict, how could Ning Qing not expect?
She nodded her head and said, "Dad, I got it."
At this moment, Yue Wanqing, who was lying on the bed, opened her eyes, and the two of them walked in. Ning Qing held her mother's hands.
Yue Wanqing was silently tearing up before she said, "Qingqing, Shaoming, he..."
Ning Qing kissed her mother's hand and said, "Mum, Shaoming will be fine. Before Shaoming comes back, I beg Mum to continue to persist. We don't have time to wallow in sadness. Both the Lu family and Little Young Master Lu needs me. Mum has to take care of herself well. Don't make me worry, okay?"
Yue Wanqing choked up upon hearing her daughter's plea. She firmly nodded her head and said, " Okay, Qingqing. Mum will not add to your burden."
"Okay, thank you Mum." Ning Qing kissed her mother's forehead.
...
Ning Zhenguo walked Ning Qing out of the hospital ward, and at this moment, Ning Qing met a familiar person."Older Sister Jian."
Jian Han was dressed in a white lab coat as she walked in the corridor. She was speaking to a nurse and was addressing matters regarding work.
Hearing that there was someone calling out to her, she lifted her head to have a look, and she quickly put on a smile and came forward."Ning Qing."
She did not know why, but Zhou Dayuan and Jian Han were both people who could make her feel relieved. They were people she could go to and rely on. Ning Qing saw her, and the tears in her eyes rolled down her face.
Jian Han saw her crying, and she was taken aback. She quickly went forward to gently hug Ning Qing's shoulders, and she caressed her small head."What is wrong? How come you are sobbing like a small kitten? You are so emotional once you see me?"
Ning Qing took a breath through her nostrils and held back the tears that were threatening to fall from her eyes. She said, "Older Sister Jian, Shaoming has disappeared. However, I believe that he should definitely be fine. My mother has fallen ill. She had undergone a kidney transplant in the past, and now that her kidney disease has popped back up, she is in the hospital right now."
Jian Han let go of her and said, "Young Master Lu has disappeared? Ning Qing, trust your own instincts. If you feel that he is fine, then he should definitely be fine."
As she spoke, she looked at Ning Zhenguo and nodded her head politely."Uncle, how are you?"
"How are you, Doctor Jian?"
"Ning Qing, although I am unable to help you regarding Young Master Lu's matters, hand Aunty over to me. Her kidney illness has relapsed? It is nothing much; it is a small matter. The medical technology in the country is very advanced. I know a great medical professor, and he has many patients under his care that are all kidney transplant patients who have lived to 80 or 90 years old. I believe Aunty could also live that long."
Ning Qing was instantly surprised. She exclaimed, "Older Sister Jian, is this true?"
Jian Han shrugged her shoulders and pretended to casually raise her eyebrows up."Would you actually take me as a liar?"
Ning Qing shook her head. She did not seem like one at all.
There was a gentle and meticulous aura on Jian Han's body, and it was very similar to Zhou Dayuan. It made others believe in them easily.
"Doctor Jian, if Qingqing's mother is able to have a long and prosperous life, then you will really become the benefactor of the Ning family, " Ning Zhenguo proclaimed.
Jian Han pointed at the work badge on her shirt, and she said, "Uncle, you don't have to be courteous. I will contact that medical professor as soon as possible. I am working here in the neurology department. I will contact Aunty's main physician and the nurses working for her, and I will leave my contact number for you later. If anything comes up, you can call me. I will come here to visit frequently."
"Okay, okay, " Ning Zhenguo calmly agreed.
"Ning Qing, you can go and attend to your own matters. Hand both Uncle and Aunty over to me, " assured Jian Han.
Ning Qing nodded her head forcefully. Half of her heart was relieved. Jian Han was around to care for her mother, so she could feel safe.
...
Ning Qing did not return to the Tea Pavilion villa. At the airport, Song Yajing sent Little Young Master Lu back to the Lu home, and now she also wanted to go back to the Lu home.
Walking into the main lobby of the Lu family villa, the confinement lady carried Little Young Master Lu to drink some water, and Lu Dinghua and Song Yajing were seated on the sofa in the living room.
The butler placed some documents in front of both of them and said, "Old Master, Old Madam, the situation is in a state of hurry right now. Although we have suppressed the news of Young Master being in a plane crash for now, this piece of news has spread among the Lu family in America. We've just received news; many sources of power have already collaborated with one another, and they are preparing to come to T City to open an emergency shareholder's meeting. They want to elect the next president of Lu Corporation."
Song Yajing slapped the table in anger and said, "These old things have waited a long time for this day to arrive. Now that we are unsure whether Shaoming is alive or not, they already anxious to lay their hands on his position."
The butler had a painful expression on his face as he said, "Old Madam, the people who we sent to Lake Baikal have already found the remains of the plane. There is also the body of the pilot, but there is no news of Young Master. I have sent more manpower to Lake Baikal to go in the depths of the lake to sweep, but for now, we are racing against time. As long as one day passes without news of Young Master, the American side will take the opportunity to strike. We cannot stay here and do nothing. We definitely have to think of a way to fight back."
Lu Dinghua contemplated for a moment, and in a low voice, he said, " After tomorrow, if there is still no news of Shaoming, we will officially announce that Shaoming... has passed away."
