Ming Han and Ming Wei were playing outside the courtyard under the old banyan tree with Xiao Loh En. Min Rui was originally in the room reading, but upon hearing Cai Xiufen’s voice, he couldn’t help but come to the living room and said, "Just make a phone call."
"Is it appropriate to call at this time?"
Picking up the receiver, Cai Xiufen put it down again: "It’s not off work time yet."
"The phone book has Grandpa Song’s office landline number."
Min Rui said as he took out a small hard-covered notebook with recorded phone numbers from the drawer under the coffee table. He found Director Song’s office landline number and picked up the receiver to dial a series of numbers.
After about two or three minutes, Director Song’s voice came through the receiver, "Hello! Who would you like to speak to?"
Min Rui first reported his name, then without any hesitation, asked about Kang Li, and heard Director Song say that Kang Li didn’t stay long at the station and went back to the compound yesterday. Immediately, Min Rui was stunned.
"Ruirui! Ruirui, what’s wrong with you?"
Seeing Min Rui frozen and speechless, Cai Xiufen became anxious, quickly took the receiver from Min Rui’s hand and asked Director Song, "Her Godfather, what did you say to Ruirui? The child seems very not right at the moment!"
"Old sister-in-law, Ruirui asked me whether his mother left the station, I told him..." Director Song was speaking when suddenly he stopped, his expression changed, and he was silent for a moment.
Cai Xiufen felt strange, "Her Godfather, why did you stop talking? Did Li Bao leave or not? She didn’t come back last night and didn’t call home..."
"Old sister-in-law, I have a bit of business to attend to, I’ll hang up now!" Director Song hung up the phone, immediately got up, thinking of going to the laboratory to ask Luo Yanqing, but before he walked out of the office, he stopped.
Going in such a rush, what if it’s just a mistake, wouldn’t it affect that young man’s work?
After walking back and forth in the office for two rounds, Director Song picked up the receiver, dialing his home landline number.
