Chapter 213 Help
Wen Lan and Wen Jinyin had a bad relationship, so naturally she rarely interacted with Wen Jinyin's son.
In the two years since she married Xie Yansheng, whenever Xie Yansheng went back to the Wen family with her, he would definitely bring a valuable toy for Wen Zuming.
As a result, Wen Zuming gradually became more "favorable" to her and Xie Yansheng, and would stick to them like "aunt" and "uncle" whenever he saw them.
The last time she met Wen Zuming in the supermarket, she bribed the little guy with a toy worth more than 2,000 yuan, and the little guy repeatedly promised to secretly help her find out about Ji Minxin.
At this time, a quick phone call rang, and her heartstrings immediately tightened.
A rehearsal was going on on the stage on the first floor, and the harsh music made her anxious.
She quickly hid in the stairwell and clicked the answer button with trembling fingers.
"Aunt! I finally found out for you--" Wen Zuming on the other end of the phone was out of breath anxiously, "The relative in our family who was seriously ill is not dead yet, and is in a sanatorium called 'Yihe'!"
Hearing this, Wen Lan's mind "boomed" and exploded!
"Is the sanatorium in Gangcheng?" She asked anxiously.
But Du Yan's voice calling Wen Zuming came from the phone, and Wen Zuming said "um" in a panic and hung up the phone.
Wen Lan listened to the busy tone in her ears, her mind went blank, and her hand holding the phone trembled constantly.
"Yihe Sanatorium--" She fell on the stairs, silently reciting the name, and an unspeakable pain surged in her heart.
During the days in Gangcheng, she and Shen Yi searched all the public and private hospitals, and visited many sanatoriums, but had no impression of this sanatorium called "Yihe"!
She forced herself to calm down and began to search for "Yihe Sanatorium" in Gangcheng on her phone.
The sanatorium is in a small county called "Qinghe", more than 100 kilometers away from the urban area of Gangcheng.
Perhaps the sanatorium is too small, and there is little relevant information. The latest one is the news that the community sent rice dumplings and lucky bags to the sanatorium on the Double Ninth Festival last year.
Wen Lan opened the ticket booking software and saw that there were two flights to Gangcheng today, one in half an hour and the other at two o'clock in the morning.
She quickly booked the early morning flight!
It was just past eleven o'clock in the afternoon. She rushed to Gangcheng and took a taxi from the airport to Qinghe County. Even if everything went smoothly, it would be dawn...
She has been waiting for news from Ji Minxin for eight years!
The eight years of waiting have consumed all her patience and hope. Now, she doesn't want to wait any longer!
Even if she can't go to the "Yihe Sanatorium" right now, she has to find someone to help her go there!
After finding Shen Yi's phone number and calling it, Wen Lan realized that she had been blocked by Shen Yi.
At this time, the lighting technician called her to go upstairs. She hurriedly got up from the stairs, and suddenly she saw stars!
Fortunately, she reacted quickly and grabbed the stair railing tightly to avoid falling.
She had irregular diet in the past two days and didn't eat breakfast today. She felt that she had hypoglycemia.
She leaned on the door of the stairs for four or five minutes before going upstairs.
After negotiating with the lighting technician, Wen Lan asked the aunt in charge of tea for a dessert. After eating, she felt energetic.
After going downstairs, Wen Lan borrowed Zhou Qiao's mobile phone and called Shen Yi.
"I borrowed the money from you before the New Year, and I will definitely pay you back next month." Shen Yi thought it was Zhou Qiao who came to collect the debt, and his tone was very depressed and lonely.
"It's me." Wen Lan was stunned for a moment. It was obviously very inconsistent, but she still asked with a stiff upper lip, "Can you do me a favor?"
"Go ahead." Shen Yi's tone was calm and he deliberately kept a distance from Wen Lan.
"I just heard a piece of news that my aunt is in the 'Yihe Sanatorium' in Qinghe County." Unconsciously, Wen Lan's voice was tinged with tears, "I have booked a flight at 2 a.m., but it will be tomorrow morning at the earliest to arrive in Qinghe. Can you go to Qinghe now and check if my aunt is there for me?"
"Sure." Shen Yi answered very straightforwardly.
Wen Lan called him urgently, "Can you release me from the blacklist first? It's inconvenient to always borrow Zhou Qiao's phone."
Shen Yi on the other end did not respond and hung up the phone.
Wen Lan was worried, but Shen Yi's application to add her as a friend soon popped up on WeChat on her mobile phone. She immediately clicked to approve it and sent the two words "thank you".
Shen Yi did not respond.
Wen Lan knew that the "car sex" scandal between her and Xie Yansheng had hurt Shen Yi badly. Shen Yi hated her and blamed her, but she had no complaints.
She was very relieved to be blocked by Shen Yi and to leave Shen Yi's world.
But her concern and worry about Ji Minxin forced her to have another encounter with Shen Yi.
She secretly hoped that Shen Yi would block her again when Ji Minxin was found.
She returned the phone to Zhou Qiao, who was busy discussing the order of the models' appearance with the director.
Zhou Qiao unlocked her phone and saw the call records between her and Shen Yi. She said sadly: "I thought he blocked you. You said it as a joke, but it turned out to be true."
"Really." Wen Lan's mind was in a mess, and she kept looking at her watch.
Zhou Qiao pulled her to a secluded place and asked curiously: "You were so anxious when you came down from upstairs. What happened?"
"Just now I had some hypoglycemia. I was dizzy and almost fell down when I went upstairs." Wen Lan did not tell Ji Minxin about it. "I'm going out tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. I won't go to work."
"The day after tomorrow, our men's couture studio will be officially launched. It's not good for you, as a partner, not to show up, right?" Zhou Qiao, "There will be a press conference at that time, and there will be many media reporters. I plan to let you deal with them."
"I'll try to come back the day after tomorrow." Wen Lan didn't know if she could find Ji Minxin in Qinghe County, so she could only perfunctorily answer Zhou Qiao.
"Where are you going? You're so mysterious?" There were many topics that the two of them could share, and Zhou Qiao became more and more curious about Wen Lan's secrecy. "Are you going to see Shen Yi?"
"To Hongcheng. I will definitely see Shen Yi, but I'm not going to Hongcheng just to see him." Wen Lan explained.
"You're just being stubborn!" Zhou Qiao smiled and said this, and went to the dressing room behind the stage.
Wen Zuming's call disturbed Wen Lan's heart. No matter what she did, she was absent-minded, and she would always check her phone to see if there was a message from Shen Yi.
After staying backstage for less than ten minutes, Wen Lan made the mistake of accessories and outerwear for two dresses. Xiao Li said that she looked bad and asked her twice if she was feeling unwell.
She shook her head and denied it.
Xie Yansheng called three times before she answered.
"I was sitting in the restaurant waiting for you to order at 11:30, why haven't you come yet?" Xie Yansheng's complaint reached her ears.
She was so annoyed at the moment that she had no mood to accompany Xie Yansheng for dinner!
"It's too busy here, I can't go. You eat alone." She hung up the phone after she said that.
Xie Yansheng's calls kept coming in, but she didn't answer them.
Ten minutes later, she saw Xie Yansheng walk into the meeting room on the first floor with a dark face!
