mu yiling stopped walking and said,”you’ve been in there with that president for too long. i’m worried that something might have happened to you, so i’ve come to take a look.” miss fang should still be at the buffet area, right? she seemed to have met a few acquaintances just now and was chatting with them!”
“oh, really? little qianqian met someone she knew?” luo chenxi was slightly stunned.
mu yiling nodded. ” yeah, i think they’re all famous designers. there were also models. i heard that she was asking someone about the venue! she’s worried that you won’t be able to reach an agreement with the president this time, so she wants to ask more. by the way, sister-in-law, i haven’t had the time to ask you, how was your chat with the president?”
luo chenxi’s expression turned unpleasant at once upon hearing the question.
” it’s alright. mr. augusta has a very high opinion of my designs, and has provided me with a lot of help. the only problem he didn’t solve was the venue for the show. ”
mu yiling’s face was filled with surprise. he clearly did not understand what was going on. ” uh … since he likes your design, why can’t he rent the venue to you? ”
the corners of luo chenxi’s lips were curled into a sneer. ” it’s still the same excuse that has never changed. the venue has been rented in advance. ”
“what? it was snatched by someone else again? this, this, this … if it wasn’t for someone playing tricks on me, i’d let you kick my head like a ball!” mu yiling almost jumped up. he could not help but raise his voice, causing many people around him to turn their heads.
luo chenxi tugged at him hastily. ” be gentle, be gentle. it’s useless even if you scream. i think i have some clues. let’s go and find little qianqian first. we’ll talk about the rest when we get back.”
mu yiling quickly shut his mouth. he brought luo chenxi along and walked in the direction of fang ziqian.
however, luo chenxi did not see fang ziqian anywhere even after she looked around the area once they arrived at the buffet area.
“where’s little qianqian? are you sure she was here just now? did she say she wanted to go somewhere else?” luo chenxi looked at mu yiling with a suspicious expression.
mu yiling was also confused. ” this … miss fang must have been here just now. also, i told her not to leave this place before i left … ”
“he probably met an acquaintance?”
luo chenxi furrowed her brows ever so slightly. she took out her phone and called fang ziqian.
however, the call rang many times, but no one picked up.
“why isn’t anyone picking up?” luo chenxi frowned in puzzlement. she suddenly felt a little uneasy.
mu yiling said hurriedly,”sister-in-law, don’t be anxious. it’s impossible for miss fang to go missing. i think there’s something urgent that’s causing her to miss her phone’s ringtone.” how about this, let’s look around the area first. if she doesn’t see you, she probably won’t leave the banquet hall by herself.”
luo chenxi knew that he was right. fang ziqian was an adult, so how could she possibly refuse to meet him?
she suppressed the uneasiness in her heart and went to look for the person with mu yiling.
however, they spent twenty minutes searching every corner of the banquet hall and even the courtyard outside, but they still couldn’t find fang ziqian.
during that period, luo chenxi called fang ziqian a few more times. in the beginning, no one picked up. later on, fang ziqian’s phone was turned off.
it was also at this exact moment that luo chenxi truly became anxious.
“something’s wrong, something’s really wrong! little qianqian couldn’t have left without a word. something must have happened to her!”
