Could it be that he went home
He Jichen subconsciously looked for Ji's mother's phone number. The moment he clicked on it, he paused.
If she didn't come home, wouldn't it make her parents worried
He Jichen hesitated for a second, and finally returned to WeChat and sent a message back to Tang Huahua: "You're not back yet?"
Tang Huahua quickly replied to him: "No."
Right above the WeChat dialog box, the words "The other party is typing" were displayed. He Jichen waited for about half a minute and saw another message from Tang Huahua: "Senior He, we have class at ten o'clock, Xiaoyi has never She won’t miss class without any reason, so I will definitely be able to see her at ten o’clock.”
He Jichen tapped the screen twice and was about to enter text when he received another line of text from Tang Huahua: "When I see Xiaoyi, I will ask her where she went last night and then I will tell you."
Tang Huahua didn't know everything that happened between him and Ji Yi. He simply thought that he was curious about Ji Yi's whereabouts. Maybe it was because of the unpleasantness he had with Ji Yi last night. He Jichen always felt like saying no in his heart. He came out uneasy, but he didn't tell Tang Huahua that he was worried, and just replied with the word "ok".
Later, He Jichen received a smiling emoticon from Tang Huahua. He didn't reply. He put away his phone and raised his wrist to look at the time. It was already half past seven. There was still a morning meeting at the company at nine o'clock. He dialed I called for breakfast and went into the bathroom.
…
Sitting in the company conference room, at first, He Jichen's attention was still on the content of the meeting.
At nine-fifty, he started checking his phone frequently, fearing that he would miss the WeChat message from Tang Huahua. He waited until ten-fifty, but his phone was still quiet.
While He Jichen seemed to be listening intently to the manager of the planning department, he lowered his eyes and stared at his phone. He clicked on Tang Huahua's WeChat account and started typing.
As soon as he typed the pinyin of the three words "How is it", the phone vibrated in the palm of his hand. The news from Tang Huahua that he had been looking forward to for a long time finally came: "Senior He, Xiaoyi didn't come to class. Just now, the teacher The roll call was called, and judging from the teacher's appearance, she didn't seem to ask for leave, so I secretly hid under the desk and called her, and now the phone is turned off."
He Jichen began to feel that something was wrong. He ignored the entire conference room and dialed Ji Yi's phone number and put the phone to his ear.
"Sorry, the phone you dialed has been turned off."
Tang Huahua said that Ji Yi's mother called Ji Yi last night to ask for her. Could something have happened to her family? Is she at home
He Jichen guessed and kicked away the chair behind him. Without even leaving a word, he took the car keys and left the conference room under the surprised eyes of the group. He went straight to the underground parking lot and drove to Ji's house.
Ji's father went to work, and Ji's mother was the only one at home. She was very surprised to see He Jichen coming over.
He Jichen handed Ji's mother the nutritional supplements he had prepared when he arrived, lying that his mother asked him to bring them.
After chatting with Ji's mother for a while, He Jichen confirmed that Ji Yi had never returned to Ji's home. He immediately made an excuse, said goodbye in a hurry, and left Ji's home.
After returning to the car, He Jichen took out his cell phone and dialed Ji Yi again. The phone was still turned off. Only then did he realize that the matter was much more serious than he thought. He suddenly felt uneasy and panicked.
