Secret Marriage: Reborn as A Beautiful Model Student - Chapter 1278
Chapter 1278: Li Qingcang’s Accident Was Related to X (4)
“There was a puddle of water in his office. I found the ring in the puddle.”
“Tianxin, this could very well be a clue left by Qingcang.”
“Then what is Qingcang trying to say?”
Xie Xuning was baffled too. If Li Qingcang was leaving a clue for them, what was he trying to tell them?
Was he letting them know that he was safe?
Did he want to tell Ye Tianxin not to worry about him?
News of the explosion at the Capital University had been broadcasted in the news at the national television station.
The newscaster cited that there was a mistake during one of the experiments, causing the explosion in the lab. A total of 10 people had died—36 people were injured, while 2 others were missing.
“I am beginning to think that this matter may have something to do with Li Bai. Tianxin, think about it. Xu Yuan is overseas. How did she know that Professor Xu’s research is almost done?”
Ye Tianxin looked at Xie Xuning and made some deductions by herself. “So it is possible that there were foreign spies in Profesor Xu’s lab.”
…
“Yes.”
Xie Xuning felt that his head was spinning.
Who was X? He seemed to be following them everywhere.
Why was he in hiding? Why did he not show himself?
“Dad, do you think Qingcang is in danger?”
“At the moment, I doubt it.”
Ye Tianxin heaved a sigh of relief. She shouldn’t be too anxious and think of the worst scenario.
She should trust Li Qingcang. He was a soldier who was trained to handle all kinds of dangerous situations and emergencies.
Ye Tianxin tried to convince herself that he was able to keep himself out of danger.
She kept reminding herself not to think too much.
Maybe Li Qingcang had already returned to the hostel.
“Tianxin.”
Just then, Wu Tong appeared. She ran toward Ye Tianxin. She had rushed to the Capital University the minute she received Li Xingchen’s call.
“Mom, Qingcang will be fine.”
Although Ye Tianxin was feeling anxious herself, she knew she had to comfort Wu Tong. Ye Tianxin loved Li Qingcang very much. Naturally, she would treat his loved ones well. Wu Tong was his mother; she would definitely want to protect her.
Wu Tong glanced at the white cloth on the floor. When she caught sight of Ye Tianxin at the accident site, she almost stopped breathing.
Wu tong and Ye Tianxin held hands.
They thought the other party was scared when in reality, they were both trembling in fear.
“That’s good. If he’s not here, it means he should be fine.”
Wu Tong swallowed hard. She was also trying to tell herself that Li Qingcang was safe. Li Xingchen had told her over the phone that nothing will happen to Li Qingcang.
Li Qingcang was a soldier, after all.
He had gone through much rigorous training and would be prepared for such situations. He would know how to prevent himself from getting hurt and keep himself safe.
“But, Mom, I’m still scared.”
More than an hour had passed after the explosion. Li Qingcang’s whereabouts were still unknown. Ye Tianxin could not help but feel worried.
Ye Tianxin’s heart was gripped with fear.
She felt like a knife was being pushed deeper into her heart as time passed.
“Tianxin, don’t be afraid. Nothing will happen to him. Remember the last time he was seriously injured and was bleeding badly? He turned out fine in the end. I’m sure this time won’t be any different.”
Xie Xuning was also trying to assure both Ye Tianxin and Wu Tong. “WuTong, Tianxin, don’t worry. I will let you know once Qingcang contacts us. Don’t worry too much.”
“All right then. Tianxin, since we cannot be of help here, let’s go back to the hostel first.”
Wu Tong and Ye Tianxin put their arms around each other’s shoulders and made their way back to the hostel.
On the way back, Wu Tong could not help but turn back to take another look at the white cloth.
