Song Ge was extremely worried about Zhai Cheng's safety. However, since time hadn't reset yet, it meant he was still out of danger for the time being. So she had to find Zhai Cheng as soon as possible.
When Aunt Chen learned that Zhai Cheng was missing, she was completely stunned. "Where could the young master have gone? Could he have gone out?" Just when their happy life was about to start, who would have thought such a thing would happen.
Song Ge shook her head. "No, he would tell me if he had anything to do."
She carefully recalled last night. There didn't seem to be anything special. This incident really happened without any warning. "Go and ask the other servants if they've seen Zhai Cheng."
"Okay, okay, okay." Aunt Chen replied in a hurry and was about to leave.
Song Ge stopped her. Considering there were many servants in the villa, it would be a waste of time if Aunt Chen asked each one individually. "Gather them all in the hall."
Aunt Chen immediately went to do it and told the servants to wait in the hall.
Song Ge sat on the sofa. The servants in front of her were neatly lined up. Everyone was confused and didn't know what was going on.
"Did any of you see the young master yesterday? Or did the young master show any signs of being out of the ordinary?"
Everyone looked at each other and then shook their heads one after another.
Song Ge's eyes dimmed. She rubbed her temples. "You can all go back to your work."
The servants left one after another, whispering among themselves from time to time.
Song Ge knew that continuing to stay at home like this definitely wouldn't help her find out where Zhai Cheng had gone. So she drove to the company.
Everyone in the company knew that Song Ge was going to get engaged to Zhai Cheng and would be the president's wife in the future. So their attitudes towards her had changed.
But Song Ge didn't have the time to care about this. "Did any of you see the president yesterday?"
"The president came to work as usual yesterday and left after work in the afternoon."
Song Ge roughly understood the situation. All she learned was that Zhai Cheng had gone to work on time and then left work. There was nothing unusual about it.
She went to the office. The office was as simple and clean as ever, except that the man who used to sit there was missing.
She sighed and walked to the desk. She gently stroked the computer and the pen that Zhai Cheng had used.
Where on earth have you gone?
The junior assistant directly pushed the door open and came in. She didn't expect there to be someone inside. She was startled at first, and then she saw it was Song Ge. "Miss Song, why are you here?"
Hearing the voice, Song Ge withdrew her hand and composed herself. "You were with Zhai Cheng yesterday. Did he show any signs of being out of the ordinary?"
The junior assistant thought for a while but couldn't think of anything. "There didn't seem to be anything wrong." After a pause, "But during the meeting yesterday, General Manager Zhai received a phone call and then went out. This was the first time such a thing had happened."
Everyone knew that Zhai Cheng was a workaholic, and such things rarely happened.
"Okay, I see." After Song Ge left the company, she immediately asked someone to help investigate Zhai Cheng's call records. However, this involved privacy, so the process was a bit slow.
Song Ge had no choice but to go back to the villa and wait.
The empty villa had no trace of joy.
Aunt Chen saw that Song Ge hadn't eaten lunch and was very worried. "Miss Song, please eat something. Don't let the young master come back only to find you've fallen ill."
Song Ge forced a smile, full of bitterness.
"I'm not in the mood to eat." Song Ge said.
Aunt Chen was about to say something else, but Song Ge interrupted her. "Aunt Chen, I'd like to be alone for a while."
Aunt Chen sighed and left the room.
The room fell silent. Darkness enveloped Song Ge, as if it was about to devour her.
The woman's thoughts drifted far, far away.
Finally, an urgent ringing of the phone pulled her back to reality.
Song Ge immediately answered the phone, a bit nervously. "How's it going?"
"We've already found out. The information has been sent to your phone."
Song Ge hung up the phone and clicked on the message. The number of Zhai Cheng's last phone call looked very familiar to her, but she couldn't remember whose it was for a moment.
Suddenly, her mind clicked. Her pupils dilated as she stared at the phone number on the phone.
Isn't this my mother's phone number?
Song Ge's mind was a bit muddled. What did Zhai Cheng's disappearance have to do with her mother?
Without time to think it through, Song Ge called her mother. The phone was connected, but no one answered for a long time.
Song Ge hung up and then called her father. This time, the phone was answered quickly. "Song Ge." His voice was tinged with sobs.
Song Ge was taken aback. "Dad, what's wrong?"
"Your mother, your mother is missing." In fact, as soon as her father found out, he wanted to tell Song Ge. But thinking that her engagement ceremony was coming up, he didn't want to bother her. Maybe her mother had just gone out and forgotten to tell him. He could only comfort himself like this.
The phone almost slipped out of her hand, but luckily Song Ge tightened her grip in time. "My mother is missing?"
"Yes. I called her, but no one answered. I thought maybe she had gone out, but it's been so long and she still hasn't come back. I've also asked the neighbors, and no one has seen her. What should we do?"
Song Ge could tell that her father was on the verge of collapse. Although she was also very flustered, it was now her turn to give her father a sense of security. "Dad, don't be in a hurry. I'll handle this. You take good care of yourself."
The other side was silent for a while and then asked, "Song Ge, should we call the police?"
Song Ge immediately refused. "No, don't call the police." If the police got involved in this matter, it might be bad for Zhai Cheng and her mother. "Dad, just stay at home and don't go anywhere. What if mother comes back?"
"Okay. I'll listen to you." Her father felt a little more at ease because of Song Ge's words.
After hanging up the phone, Song Ge collapsed and squatted down, covering her head with her hands. Who on earth did this? They even didn't spare her mother!
After about a few minutes, Song Ge picked up her phone again, found the dial button, and clicked to call.
"Hello, is this a call to report an incident?"
Hearing the voice, Song Ge hung up the phone in fear and finally turned off the phone directly.
Since she didn't dare to call the police, Song Ge had no choice but to send people and hire detectives to investigate this matter. However, there was still no news.
The next day, Song Ge saw in a daze that Zhai Cheng was sitting by the bed, gazing at her. She sat up with a start and immediately hugged Zhai Cheng. "You're back."
The latter gently patted her on the back, his voice as gentle as ever. "Silly girl." He pushed Song Ge away and brushed the stray hairs from her forehead. "You haven't taken good care of yourself. You've lost weight."
"Promise me you'll never leave me again, okay?"
Zhai Cheng nodded, his eyes full of affection. But he was getting farther and farther away, farther and farther away.
Song Ge reached out her hand, trying to grab him, but she grabbed nothing. She shouted his name loudly, "Zhai Cheng, Zhai Cheng."
She suddenly sat up and only then realized that it had all been a dream.
