The butler, Chai Hua, had a room saved as the command room for the rescue operation. There were a number of handphones placed on top of the table to receive any updates from any party.
Nan Zhengde was sitting on the chair with his eyes closed to get some rest.
Their grandfather did not have a good night’s sleep and had blood-shot eyes as a result of that.
Ever since the position of the CEO was passed to Nan Chen, there was nothing for him to worry about and it had been long since he felt such anxiety.
Right next to grandfather was Young Master Nan Xing who just fell asleep, anticipating phone calls last night.
The phone rang again and grandfather opened his eyes and looked at Chai Hua.
Meanwhile, Nan Xing also got up almost instantly and stared at the person who picked up the phone call.
After Chai Hua answered the call, his face turned pale.
“What’s the situation now! Don’t keep it to yourself, quick share!” Nan Xing was anxious.
“After Young Master Nan Chen flew the helicopter cross the border, the helicopter has been out of contact with the outside world. There is no way to locate their live location either. Last morning at 3am, there were two incidents of firing in M nation. The border situation is currently in a state of emergency and all the exits along the border have been sealed.
“What? Does that mean that my brother will not be able to come back?” Nan Xing exclaimed.
“We have already communicated with the immigration personnel so once they see Young Master Nan Chen and their team, they will let him get through the checkpoints. However, there seemed to be no sight of them.” Chai Hua said.
“Something is wrong, they are in trouble! Grandfather, we have to send out planes to start the rescue operation. M nation is covered with primitive forests; they will not be able to return once something happens to the helicopter.” Nan Xing said.
“That is out of the country, our rescue team must get their approval before we can carry out any rescue operations in their territories. It should be even harder to do so given that the area is in a state of emergency right now.” Grandfather said as he frowned.
“What shall we do, I cannot just sit here and not care about my brother and his people.” Nan Xing said.
“What are you worried about? I am trying to figure out a way now. Chai Hua, help me contact Chief Ye in Y province, get him to arrange for a call with me once it is convenient for him.” Grandfather said.
“Yes.”
Nan Xing was so anxious that he started pacing up and down the room, with his palms together as he prayed, “Dear God, please keep my children safe and sound. If you can hear what I say, I am willing to shorten my life span for ten years to keep my children safe!”
As the Nan family were busy handling the resources to carry out a rescue operation, Zheng Lunlun just came back from overseas and had lots of food brought over to the filming scene at Flower City.
He realized that there was only Luo Fei and Zhao Mingjie at the scene as well as a few other supporting actors, Ning Ran was not there.
As the Nan family prevented the news from spreading, no one in the crew, including the directors and staff members, knew about Ning Ran’s disappearance.
Cheng Xiangyun told the director that Ning Ran fell ill and had to admit into the hospital for treatment hence she was absence. She said that she was also not sure how many leaves of absence she would have to take.
Although the director was not too happy about it, but ever since he knew that Ning Ran had the Nan family as her pillars of support, he did not dare to make any comment but agreed to everything.
Zheng Lunlun searched around but could not see Ning Ran at all. Hence, we asked the staff members if they knew where Ning Ran had been to.
The staff member said that Ning Ran was seriously ill and did not come here today.
Zheng Lunlun was panicking, and asked the staff member which hospital Ning Ran was at.
As the staff member did not know the answer, he had to turn to Ning Ran’s manager for help.
Hence, Zheng Lunlun immediately gave Cheng Xiangyun a call, but she was stumped as she did not know whether she should let him know about the truth.
