Hearing Song Yunxuan’s voice, Shao Xue sighed with relief.
Then she said to Song Yunxuan, “It’s me, Yunxuan.”
Recognizing Shao Xue’s voice, Song Yunxuan asked, “Is that Shao Xue?”
“Yes, it’s me.”
Shao Xue replied and then asked Song Yunxuan, “Did you receive the mail I sent you last night?”
“What mail?”
Song Yunxuan wondered.
Hearing Song Yunxuan’s words, Shao Xue realized that Song Yunxuan didn’t receive her mail or maybe Song Yunxuan didn’t notice the mail she sent to her.
“Gu Yi is going to the Harbor City.”
Since Song Yunxuan didn’t read her mail, Shao Xue decided to tell Song Yunxuan what she wrote in the mail.
Hearing Shao Xue’s words, Song Yunxuan couldn’t help frowning. Then she asked worriedly, “When did that happen?”
“Shao Tianze made the decision only yesterday.”
Hearing that, Song Yunxuan began to understand.
“Gu Changle’s pillow talk, right?”
“Probably.” Shao Xue replied helplessly, “Despite all the reluctance, Yi has to leave Yuncheng according to Shao Tianze’s arrangement if he doesn’t change his mind.”
“Gu Yi might as well leave the Shao Family. I don’t feel easy about seeing him stay with Shao Tianze and Gu Changle, which is charged with danger.”
Song Yunxuan thought it wouldn’t hurt Gu Yi and Miaomiao to leave Yuncheng, and it would be dangerous for them to keep staying with Gu Changle and Shao Tianze.
Hearing Song Yunxuan’s words, Shao Xue pressed her lips, reminding Song Yunxuan, “Only Gu Yi will go to the Harbor City, Miaomiao will keep staying here.”
Shao Xue’s words immediately silenced Song Yunxuan.
Then Song Yunxuan said in sepulchral tones, “Shao Tianze wants to separate the two kids?”
She asked Shao Xue.
Shao Xue nodded, answering, “Yes.”
Song Yunxuan narrowed her eyes, beginning to feel worried.
Though Yi was little, he was sensible and quick-witted. If he could stay with Miaomiao, Song Yunxuan would have nothing to worry about.
But if Shao Tianze separated the two kids, things would be different.
Miaomiao was too young to live in the Shao Family without Gu Yi, which was fraught with dangers.
“When will Yi leave?”
“He has set off. At around six in the morning, he packed up and was taken to the airport.”
Hearing that, Song Yunxuan frowned and said immediately, “I’m going to the airport. Catch you later.”
With this, Song Yunxuan hung up the phone.
Hearing that Song Yunxuan hung up, Shao Xue pressed her lips with mixed feelings.
Shao Xue guessed that Song Yunxuan wanted to see Gu Yi very much.
However, whether Song Yunxuan could see Gu Yi was unknown. After all, it had been such a while since Gu Yi set off.
Shao Xue pressed her lips, not knowing what to say. But after pondering for a moment, she left the phone box and hailed a taxi.
After Shao Xue got in, the driver asked, “Destination?”
Shao Xue answered, “The International Airport.”
The driver said OK and accelerated.
Then Shao Xue added, “Please drive faster. Thanks.”
“OK.”
Then the driver put his foot down, and the car began to pick up speed.
Shao Xue clenched her fists.
She hoped that Song Yunxuan could see Gu Yi before he got aboard.
…
The moment Song Yunxuan hung up the phone, she ordered the housekeeper, “Give me the car key.”
Hearing that, the housekeeper knew Song Yunxuan wanted to go out.
So she said, “Are you going out, Miss Song? It’s still too early to go to the company.”
Song Yunxuan usually went to the Song enterprise at around eight o’clock.
Now it was only around seven, so it was a bit early for Song Yunxuan to go to the company.
Moreover, the housekeeper knew Song Yunxuan was pregnant, so she hoped that she could stay a bit longer at home.
Song Yunxuan understood what the housekeeper was thinking about, so she explained, “I’m going to the airport to see someone off.”
Hearing that, the housekeeper immediately fetched the car key and handed it over to Song Yunxuan.
But at the moment she handed the key to Song Yunxuan, she couldn’t help advising her, “Miss Song, Assistant Mei is here. Shall I let him take you there?”
“No need. I can be on my own. Let him have breakfast in the dining room.”
Recently, Mei Qi visited the Song Family more often. But most of the time, he came at mealtime and scrounged free meals.
Song Yunxuan couldn’t care less about whether Mei Qi came to scrounge free meals or not. Anyway, she had almost considered Mei Qi as her family. Thus it was normal for Mei Qi to eat in the Song Family.
After all, Mei Qi had helped Song Yunxuan a lot along the way.
Besides, compared with Mei Qi’s enormous effort, one or two meals were not worth mentioning.
She thought like that.
Song Yunxuan walked outside with the car key in her hand.
While passing the living-room, Song Yunxuan and Mei Qi exchanged glances.
Seeing that Song Yunxuan was hurrying outside, Mei Qi felt strange, wondering, “Why do you go to the Song enterprise this early today?”
The housekeeper answered for Song Yunxuan, “Miss Song is going to the airport, not the Song enterprise.”
Mei Qi knitted his brows, asking, “Airport? What for?”
“To see someone off.” Song Yunxuan answered briefly.
Without thinking twice, Mei Qi said, “I’ll go with you.”
With this, Mei Qi followed Song Yunxuan out of the Song Family.
After they arrived at the garage, they got in the car. Then Mei Qi started the engine, and Song Yunxuan fastened her seat belt.
After that, Mei Qi asked Song Yunxuan, “Who will you be seeing off at the airport?”
“Gu Yi.”
Song Yunxuan didn’t want to hide it from him and directly told him that she would be seeing Gu Yi off.
Mei Qi was a bit stunned. Then he asked, “Are you saying Shao Tianze will raise the two kids separately?”
Song Yunxuan nodded, replying, “Yes.”
“That’s odd.” Mei Qi slightly frowned, analyzing, “The two kids are still small. Shao Tianze and Gu Changle would never let either of them inherit the Shao enterprise. So why does he want to raise them separately?”
Song Yunxuan murmured, “Maybe it’s because Yi has grown up and known a lot.”
Song Yunxuan’s face clouded. When Mei Qi saw that, a thought flashed through his mind.
He asked, “What does Gu Yi know?”
Song Yunxuan answered, “Something that makes Shao Tianze feel threatened.”
She could almost guess what Gu Yi knew.
The reason why Shao Tianze wanted to separate the two kids was definitely that one of them knew something.
In order not to let Gu Yi tell Miaomiao about the secret, Shao Tianze decided to separate them.
It was easy to guess what could make Shao Tianze feel threatened.
It was the real cause of Gu Changge’s death.
Gu Yi must have known it.
In order to stop Gu Yi from telling the secret to Miaomiao who was growing up day by day, Shao Tianze sent Gu Yi away.
It was Song Yunxuan’s speculation.
But there was no proof yet, so Song Yunxuan could only bite her tongue.
Seeing that, Mei Qi didn’t ask any more questions.
Meanwhile, Song Yunxuan became silent, not continuing the topic.
Song Yunxuan just hoped that she could meet Gu Yi at the airport before he got aboard.
…
When arriving at the airport, it was only twenty minutes left before the departure time.
After hurriedly checking in, Gu Yi sat in the departure lounge, quietly waiting for the time to board.
The clock ticked away. Meanwhile, Gu Yi appeared calm, sitting in the departure lounge.
Even the two nurses beside Gu Yi felt that the kid was way too quiet when waiting for the flight to Harbor City.
Seeing that Gu Yi sat there in silence, a nurse walked over and spoke to him, “My young master, do you feel reluctant to leave Yuncheng?”
Gu Yi took a look at the nurse and inclined his head very slightly without speaking.
It was clear that Gu Yi was genuinely sorry to leave Yuncheng. Though it was dangerous to live in Yuncheng because of the existence of the Shao Family, the city was overlaid with memories of his childhood.
The memories included his mother’s voice and appearance.
It also included the good old days Gu Yi enjoyed with his mother and his younger sister Miaomiao.
Gu Yi dropped his eyes, saying nothing.
The nurses and the bodyguards standing beside Gu Yi didn’t care much about Gu Yi’s reaction.
Anyone who lived in the Shao Family for a long period of time could easily see what Gu Yi’s position was.
It was obvious that Shao Tianze loved Gu Changle the most.
On the surface, Gu Changle appeared to be Shao Tianze’s sister-in-law. However, everyone in the Shao Family knew well that they two had already hooked up with each other.
It really gave the two kids a hard time. They could only watch helplessly as their father and aunt betrayed their mother.
Not only did they hook up and betray Gu Yi and Miaomiao’s mother, but Gu Changle also treated the two kids left by her elder sister in a tongue-in-cheek manner.
It was Gu Changle who came up with the idea of separating the two kids.
It was really unlucky for Gu Yi and Miaomiao to have such an aunt who always tried to give them a hard time.
The bodyguards and the nurses both pitied Gu Yi, but none of them wanted to help him.
They didn’t want to care much about him.
Because Gu Yi would never be able to inherit the Shao Family.
Though Gu Yi was the only boy in the Shao Family and he should have the right of succession, it might be possible that Gu Changle and Shao Tianze would have a baby to seize Gu Yi’s right of succession.
Everyone in the Shao Family knew it, so they all made a perfunctory effort in taking care of Gu Yi.
They all knew who they should curry favor with.
And they would never fail them.
At this moment, there was a sound urging passengers to board in the departure lounge.
Hearing that, one of the nurses immediately called Gu Yi, urging him, “My young master, time to board.”
Hearing that the nurse was urging him, Gu Yi looked up and glanced at the nurse coldly, not speaking or moving.
Then Gu Yi took a look at the gate of the departure lounge.
At the entrance, lots of people were going in and out. However, Gu Yi didn’t know any of them.
None of them provoked his interest.
Gu Yi knitted his brows.
The nurse urged him again, “Young master, it’s time to board.”
Hearing that, Gu Yi left his seat and walked to the departure gate, saying, “Let’s go.”
The nurses followed Gu Yi and felt relieved when they saw Gu Yi go aboard obediently.
