Nina's stared made James shut up his mouth, James turned around and sat down to greet Emma.
The helicopter flew back to Lexingport City and landed on the top floor of North Yard.
The family doctor had been waiting for a long time. He examined Emma from head to toe. There was no other injury except for a slight bruise.
Chester held Nina's hand and asked, "Aunt Nina, how are the people in C City?"
"I'm not sure about the details of the disaster," Nina bowed and touched the child's head, smiling. "But your uncle has done everything he can."
Nina had always thought that Sam wanted to send Chester to college in Imperial City in September for the sake of the future development of Shi family.
It turned out that Nina was wrong.
It was Chester who wanted to take this path.
Chester looked at John and said, "Thank you, Uncle John."
"Okay. Don't forget your original intention. " This was John's only hope for Chester.
Lexingport City was a complex place. John had seen many people who were in high positions but only worked on the surface. He only hoped that Chester would not collude with them.
Emma was fine and left North Yard soon.
After packing up a suitcase of clothes, Nina took Chester and Nine to live in the apartment of L University.
There was only John left in North Yard.
He stood at the gate of North Yard and watched the car going farther and farther. He took out a cigarette from nowhere and lit it, looking depressed.
Like an old lonely man.
The people in North Yard were busy with their own work, and they couldn't help but take a few more looks at John. Lena was the first one who couldn't help but sigh.
"Mr. John is so pitiful."
"Be careful, don't be heard by Mr. John." Amy stopped her.
Lena shut up sulkily.
John flicked the ash off his cigarette and said with a dark face, "I've heard it."
"Mr. John!" Amy and Lena was stunned and stood straight.
After casting a cold glance at the two of them, John walked past them two and didn't say anything to scold them.
Now his wife had misled everyone in North Yard.
The only thing John could do now was to focus on his work. Occasionally, he would disguise himself and go to L University's library with the campus card he had gotten from James.
In order not to arouse Nina's suspicion, John couldn't ask her which floor she usually stayed in, so he could only look for her one room by one room.
John was wearing a black peaked cap, black casual suit, wide leg pants and Converse shoes.
He was afraid that it would easily cause unnecessary commotion and disturb his smart wife, so John pressed the edge of the cliff very low.
Under his unremitting efforts, on the afternoon of the third day, he finally saw the person he was missing in a self-study room on the top floor of the library.
Nina sat by the window, her hair tied up, her long ponytail hanging in the middle of her back, her small hand holding a pen and drawing the key points on the book, and her small mouth kept opening and closing.
Looking from John's view, he could only see the back of Nina and half of her face, but John could clearly see the man sitting opposite her, Chester.
Nina and Chester didn't talk or even look at each other, but John's face became more and more gloomy.
This reminded John of the days before, when James was in class with his girlfriend, he was always flaunting the happiness of studying together with his girlfriend to John.
At that time, John just disdained.
