Chapter 789 - 782: Defending the Company (Part 1)
Hearing Cheng Gang’s words, Bai Yiran immediately asked Sister Liu to turn on the TV, and the news channel was broadcasting the latest report from F Country.
A massive explosion and terrorist attack occurred at two iconic buildings in the city center of F Country’s capital, causing severe casualties. According to F Country’s police analysis, this malignant event is likely a retaliatory act by terrorist organizations against F Country’s election and the series of crackdowns the government recently conducted on them.
Watching the TV news, Bai Yiran’s mind went blank; Leng Yichen’s company’s branch in F Country was located in one of those demolished buildings.
"Yiran! Are you still listening? Have you called Leng Yichen, how is he now?" Cheng Gang’s anxious voice came through the phone.
"Uncle..." Bai Yiran’s voice was choked as she watched the TV, a painful chill sweeping through her entire body.
"Hey! I’m listening, tell me!"
"Leng Yichen’s phone can’t be reached... can’t be reached..." Bai Yiran suddenly collapsed to the ground, bursting into tears, repeatedly muttering, "I can’t reach his phone..."
Lou Jing and Xia Lian also realized the seriousness of the situation, quickly helping up the slumped Bai Yiran, "Yiran, you have to be strong, Yichen will be fine!"
"Exactly!" Lou Jing said firmly while supporting her, "He is such a strong man, he will surely turn misfortune into blessing! Besides, you are about to get married, he will definitely be back!"
Bai Yiran’s mind was blank, she couldn’t take in any word they were saying, she only thought of one thing, which was that Leng Yichen’s phone couldn’t be reached, and his company was in that demolished building...
"Yiran, you need to stay calm! Listen to your uncle, haven’t you not yet received any news about Leng Yichen? No news might be good news, you cannot break down at this moment! You have to hold on, for your family, for your child!" Her uncle was trying hard to persuade Bai Yiran over the phone, while already on his way to her house.
Bai Yiran sat on the sofa, tears streaming from her empty eyes, Lou Jing and Xia Lian fell silent, knowing that whatever they said at this moment, Bai Yiran wouldn’t hear it.
Bai Yiran opened Ctrip, "I want to go to F Country, I want to find him!"
Lou Jing quickly grabbed Bai Yiran’s hand, "Calm down, Yiran, the TV just said that all routes to F Country’s capital are completely closed, you can’t go there now!"
"Can’t go..." Bai Yiran was on the verge of collapse, suddenly, as if realizing something, she picked up her phone and dialed someone’s number.
The phone was quickly answered, "Hello! This is Bai Yiran!"
Gao Sheng on the other end was obviously surprised to receive Bai Yiran’s call at this moment. He paused, then roughly guessed the purpose of Bai Yiran’s call, considering the terrorist attack just occurred in F Country, and Leng Yichen’s company was in that area. "Is Leng Yichen in F Country?"
"Yes." Bai Yiran tried hard to control her trembling hand and voice, "Officer Gao, is this explosion incident targeted at Leng Yichen? You are a policeman, you should have accurate information, right."
"No." Gao Sheng quickly provided an accurate answer, "It was indeed aimed at the F Country government, and has nothing to do with Leng Yichen."
Hearing that it wasn’t targeted at Leng Yichen personally, Bai Yiran felt a slight relief, at least there’s hope that Leng Yichen is still alive.
