Time had passed for so long, it should have landed by now. Why was there no news at all?
Jiang Nan Fang asked Zhou Jin Bei.
"Did your second brother send you a message?"
"No, if he were to send a message, it would be to you first. How could it be my turn? Hasn't he called you yet?"
Jiang Nan Fang felt a dull ache in her heart, as if she had a bad premonition.
Perhaps the flight was delayed? No one could predict what might happen on the road. They would talk about it later.
The three of them were hungry and decided to order takeout.
While waiting for the food, Zhou Jin Bei turned on the television.
Chen Jiao Jiao chided her.
"You're so old, and you're still watching cartoons. Change to a news channel."
"I didn't realize you were so concerned about national affairs."
Zhou Jin Bei casually switched to a news channel for her.
Then, the announcer's emotionless voice filled the room.
"A serious traffic accident occurred, resulting in the immediate death of the driver and the front passenger. Three other individuals sustained injuries to varying degrees and have been rushed to a local hospital."
"It is reported that there were a total of five people in the car. Aside from the driver, the other four were Chinese nationals."
"Please continue to follow this station for further updates."
Jiang Nan Fang was pouring herself a glass of water when she heard the words "traffic accident" and "Chinese people." Her hand trembled involuntarily.
She lost her grip on the cup, and it clattered to the floor.
Without bothering to clean it up, she rushed to the television and stared at the screen.
The image had already switched to the next frame.
"What happened? What did the TV just say? Who had a traffic accident?"
Zhou Jin Bei was also stunned by the sudden news.
Because she had clearly seen the word "Switzerland" on the screen.
But the news had already finished, and she had only caught half of it, not knowing exactly what was said.
"I don't know either... It couldn't be that coincidental, right?"
After saying that, Jiang Nan Fang met her gaze, then guiltily looked away. They both turned their heads to find their phones.
They found no news.
Searching for Zhan Bei Jue's name brought up only past press conferences and symposium records.
No social news.
Jiang Nan Fang breathed a sigh of relief and reassured herself.
"It's impossible. Let's not scare ourselves. How could anything happen to him?"
"Exactly. Let me call Engineer Li to ask. He's traveling with second brother."
"You have someone else's number, why didn't you say so earlier? Hurry and call!"
Jiang Nan Fang quickly went to her side, watching her make the call.
However, the result was disappointing.
Engineer's phone also couldn't be reached.
"When I saw him off this morning, there was someone following him. Do you know his number?"
"No." Zhou Jin Bei was starting to panic.
"Let me call the HR manager to ask again."
As soon as the HR manager's call connected, he told Zhou Jin Bei.
"Assistant Zhou, did you also see the news?"
"What news?" Zhou Jin Bei was in denial.
"Mr. Zhan and the others had an accident. They were involved in a serious car crash right after arriving in Switzerland. The details are unclear, and the company has already sent people over."
Zhou Jin Bei and Jiang Nan Fang were stunned simultaneously.
Was it really their car?
How could this be? How could this be! How could it be!
A serious car accident immediately after landing, how could it be such a coincidence!
Impossible, they must have drunk too much and were hallucinating!
Jiang Nan Fang tried to steady herself, returned to the sofa, and called Zhan Bei Jue again.
However, no matter how many times she called, no one answered.
She tried a WeChat video call, but no one answered.
A voice call, no answer.
After struggling for ten minutes, Jiang Nan Fang's hands trembled so much she couldn't hold her phone.
"No, I have to go to Switzerland. I have to go find him. This is impossible!"
"Jiao Jiao, please book me a plane ticket right now!"
"Okay, okay, I'll book you a ticket. Do you have your passport?"
"Passport?"
Jiang Nan Fang just remembered.
She had never been to Switzerland and didn't have a Swiss passport.
Seeing her expression, they knew she didn't.
Zhou Jin Bei stamped her foot in anger.
"I don't have one either! What do we do now?"
Chen Jiao Jiao also became anxious. Such a big incident had occurred.
Flustered, she unlocked her phone.
"Isn't Lu Ming Zhe his good friend? If something really happened, he should know, right? I'll call him."
Lu Ming Zhe didn't know about Zhan Bei Jue's accident yet.
Upon receiving Chen Jiao Jiao's call, he started joking with her.
Chen Jiao Jiao impatiently interrupted him.
"I'm asking you, did you contact Mr. Zhan today? Do you know he went to Switzerland?"
"No, why did he go to Switzerland suddenly? This guy, when he needs me, he tells me everything. When he doesn't, it's like he's vanished into thin air."
"Why are you asking this all of a sudden? Did he not tell his ex-wife either? She's also looking for him?"
Chen Jiao Jiao was too lazy to explain.
"Do you have a Swiss passport? Can you book a ticket and fly to Switzerland now?"
"Fly to Switzerland now? What for? It can't be that serious!"
"If he goes, it's for work. Besides his ex-wife, he's not interested in other women. He wouldn't act recklessly!"
Jiang Nan Fang snatched Chen Jiao Jiao's phone.
"He seems to have had an accident. I just saw the news, saying he was in a serious car crash right after landing, and his phone is unreachable."
"Lu Ming Zhe, I'm begging you, can you go to Switzerland now?"
Lu Ming Zhe also panicked when he heard this.
"Damn it, no way! Okay, okay, I'll book a ticket and go see right away. Don't worry."
"Keep trying to contact him. Maybe it's just bad signal, or he's temporarily busy and can't answer. It's impossible for it to be that coincidental."
The call ended, and the room fell into a deathly silence.
Jiang Nan Fang seemed to have Parkinson's, from head to toe, even her teeth couldn't stop trembling.
Zhou Jin Bei's face was also ashen.
The Zhou family was in a mess, and their only hope was Zhan Bei Jue.
If even he fell, they couldn't imagine how the group would live.
Moreover, Zhan Bei Jue was such a good person. She didn't want her second brother to be in trouble.
The three women sat together, holding each other tightly, drawing strength from each other.
"Nothing will happen, nothing will happen. Even if there was a car accident, my second brother will be fine."
"He will be blessed with good fortune. Let's not panic."
Although Jiang Nan Fang was panicked, her mind was still working.
Combining the recent events and Ke Jing Yu's attitude towards them, she suddenly thought of a deeper level.
Could it be...
If that were the case, Zhan Bei Jue was in a foreign land, the enemy was both visible and hidden, and he was in the open.
It was a big problem.
"Bei Bei, do you know anyone who can quickly get me a Swiss passport?"
"Ah?"
"I want to go to Switzerland. I want to find him!"
"I... don't. Maybe you can ask Brother Ming Zhe?"
Jiang Nan Fang called Lu Ming Zhe again.
"At most I can wait until tomorrow. I'll pay whatever it takes! Quickly, think of a way for me!"
"Okay, okay."
Lu Ming Zhe said as he rushed to the airport.
"I'll call someone to handle it for you right away. Don't worry too much."
Before he finished speaking, with a loud thud, a voice came from Lu Ming Zhe's end.
"Damn it, I think I hit someone!"
