Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Si Zhengting was meeting an important client and discussing a project worth billions of dollars. Just as they got to a crucial point in the meeting, Ji Chen picked up the call from the butler. Stunned, he barely hesitated before opening the door to the conference room and walking in.

“Sorry!” Ji Chen apologized to the client, then whispered something into Si Zhengting ear.

Si Zhengting furrowed his brows and stood up instantly. Without another word, he rushed out!

He only took his car keys with him; he was so speedy that he even left his jacket behind. Seeing how Si Zhengting was rushing, Ji Chen gave a small sigh and began explaining Si Zhengting’s behavior to the client. Apologizing, he then grabbed Si Zhengting’s jacket and followed Si Zhengting out.

By the time Ji Chen had gotten out, Si Zhengting’s gray Maybach had already whizzed past him like the wind.

Ji Chen hurriedly flagged down the bodyguard’s car. He pressed the car to follow Si Zhengting’s, but by the time they got to the intersection, he realized that Si Zhengting’s car had already disappeared.

Zhuang Nainai had gotten into the taxi in a fit of anger, but the closer she got to the airport, the more her anger began to give way to uncertainty and anxiety.

She had never gone overseas in her life. Even though she had been working here and there over the past five years and had “seen the world” in that sense, going overseas was a whole different ball game. She couldn’t help but feel a small sense of panic.

She got to the airport, and then, standing in front of the counter, she had no idea what to do.

She had asked Gu Deshou beforehand. She knew her mother was in a state called Kentucky, and the convalescent home was called Madero.

As for the rest, she had no idea. She was even clueless as to how to get to the state of Kentucky.

A wave of helplessness began to rise up from the depths of her heart. Standing in the midst of the crowd in the airport, she felt at a loss as to where to go.

The airport ground staff and tourists passed her by. She, on the other hand, stood in front of the counter, helpless.

Until... a ground staff couldn’t bear it any longer and walked over. “Hi there, Miss, can I help you with anything?”

With that, he assessed her appearance, then pointed to somewhere beside him. “There are police officers over there. If you’ve lost anything, you can ask them for help.”

With a dispirited look, she glanced at the staff. “They can help me... no matter what I’ve lost?”

The staff nodded. Unable to resist herself, Zhuang Nainai burst out, “So if I’ve lost my heart, can they help me get it back?”

So, Miss, you’re trying to play games with me? the staff thought.

Zhuang Nainai sighed, then reached out her arm to rub her chest. The emptiness and the pain she was feeling in her heart made her unsure of what to do.

Taking a deep breath, she took a step forward toward the counter. “I’m going to the state of Kentucky. How do I get there?”

The lady at the counter immediately replied, “Miss, there isn’t any direct flight. You can first get to Chicago, then take a connecting flight over to Kentucky.”

Zhuang Nainai nodded. “Okay.”

After buying her airplane ticket, she decided to go to the departure lounge to while away the time while waiting for her flight.

Just as she was walking toward the lounge, she felt someone grab her wrist.

She turned around. What greeted her was Si Zhengting’s dark expression and his low voice. “What are you doing?”

Zhuang Nainai bit her lips and defiantly raised her head. “I’m going to look for my mother.”

“I’m not allowing you to go.” His tone was so authoritative that it left no room for negotiation. Even the fingers he had on her wrist were tightening.
