Chapter 253 The True Identity

“So, Ke’er didn’t go to work yesterday and couldn’t be reached?”

Hearing Jiang Tongxin’s words, Wan Yunting’s face darkened, and his heart grew increasingly anxious, realizing that Su Ke’er might be in trouble!

“Yes, I looked for her yesterday too. But Sister Yan said you weren’t at work, so I assumed you were together,” Jiang Tongxin replied.

“Alright, I understand. I’ll be in Huadu soon. We’ll talk when I get back. That’s all for now.”

Wan Yunting hung up the phone. Jiang Tongxin, frowning in the emergency department, felt anxious and immediately asked others if they had seen Su Ke’er…

“What’s going on with this girl?”

Wan Yunting’s face was grim, and his heart was extremely anxious. He knew that besides going to and from work, Su Ke’er had no conflicts with anyone. Therefore, he ruled out harm from those around her!

Then, the only possibility was the two mysterious youths they encountered at the amusement park last time. They might have abducted Su Ke’er!

But who were those two mysterious youths? Why would they abduct Su Ke’er?

Moreover, analyzing the previous incident, those two people didn’t seem like they would harm Ke’er!

“Dr. Wan, is something wrong?”

Gu Luotang and Qi Miaomiao, having finished eating, came out and saw Wan Yunting’s troubled expression after the call, asking with concern.

“It’s nothing.”

Wan Yunting shook his head and waved his hand, not wanting to say too much. “Are you guys done eating? Then let’s go back.”

Gu Luotang and Qi Miaomiao exchanged glances. Seeing Wan Yunting get into the car by himself, they knew something must have happened.

The two women got into the car. Without a word, Wan Yunting started driving, and his speed was noticeably faster. He remained silent on the road, which made Gu Luotang and Qi Miaomiao even more perplexed…

By one thirty in the afternoon, the car had returned to Huadu City.

“Are you going home, or back to the clinic?” Wan Yunting asked. Gu Luotang replied, “Please take us home.”

“Okay.”

Wan Yunting nodded and drove them directly to the Gu residence. The car slowly stopped at the entrance, and Wan Yunting got out, saying, “Dr. Luotang, I have something to attend to, so I’ll be heading back. See you at school tomorrow.”

“Okay…”

Gu Luotang nodded slightly. She wanted to say more, but Wan Yunting was already eagerly getting back into his car and driving back to Southern Hospital.

“What exactly is wrong with him?”

Qi Miaomiao found it strange. Gu Luotang also shook her head slightly and turned to go inside…

Southern Hospital, Emergency Department.

Wan Yunting arrived in a rush, got out of the car, and ran into the emergency department. “Where is Director Jiang? Where is she?”

“She should be in the second-floor office…”

A passing nurse pointed to the second floor. Wan Yunting nodded and quickly went upstairs. He found Jiang Tongxin’s office, knocked on the door, and said, “Director Jiang, it’s me, Wan Yunting.”

“Come in,” Jiang Tongxin called from inside. Wan Yunting then pushed the door open and entered. “Director Jiang, tell me in detail, when exactly couldn’t Ke’er be reached yesterday?”

Seeing him rush in, Jiang Tongxin knew he was worried about Ke’er and didn’t waste words. “Yesterday, I looked for Ke’er in the morning, but she didn’t come to work. I went to her dormitory, but she wasn’t there. Then I went to the Traditional Chinese Medicine department. Sister Yan said you weren’t at work, so I thought you were together, and I didn’t continue searching.”

“So, it means Ke’er became unreachable yesterday morning, or perhaps the night before!”

Because the night before, Wan Yunting had sent Su Ke’er back to the hospital, and they were in the dormitory, almost…

However, Su Ke’er was very down, and thinking back to her mood at that time, she seemed to have something on her mind. But at that time, Wan Yunting hadn’t realized it!

“What exactly happened to Ke’er?”

Jiang Tongxin’s pretty face turned serious. She now believed that Wan Yunting had offended someone outside, which had implicated Su Ke’er.

Wan Yunting shook his head slightly and then asked, “Do you know Ke’er’s family situation?”

Jiang Tongxin was taken aback and said, “She came to our hospital as an intern last year. She said she was from Huang City, from a rural area.”

“Rural…”

Wan Yunting sighed and shook his head. “It seems she didn’t tell you the truth either!”

“What do you mean?”

Jiang Tongxin frowned, as she had always thought Su Ke’er was just an ordinary girl.

But Wan Yunting didn’t think so. Although he had only been dating Su Ke’er for a short time, from her knowledge and insights, he realized she wasn’t from an ordinary family!

He wouldn’t say she came from a prominent family, but at least he guessed her family was not ordinary!

Therefore, Wan Yunting deeply regretted that he had noticed Su Ke’er’s emotional state was off during this period. She clearly had something on her mind, but he, being busy with other matters, had neglected her. Now, her mysterious disappearance made Wan Yunting extremely anxious and worried.

“What should we do now? Should we call the police?” Jiang Tongxin was also worried, as she had always treated Ke’er like a sister.

“Yes, Director Jiang, don’t worry. I will find Ke’er,” Wan Yunting nodded, then turned and left the emergency department, driving directly to the police station.

“Oh, you’re back from Shenzhen?”

As Niu Qiuling was about to go out on a case, she saw Wan Yunting rush in. He didn’t respond to her greeting and walked straight inside…

“Tsk, I’ll beat you to death…”

Niu Qiuling glared angrily, raising her fist to hit Wan Yunting. But he suddenly turned and asked, “Is Director Pang here?”

Niu Qiuling, with her hand raised, was stunned and said angrily, “No.”

Wan Yunting frowned, turned, and continued walking towards Director Pang’s office, ignoring her.

“You scoundrel…”

This made Niu Qiuling stomp her feet. She realized that since he moved out from her place, he was paying less and less attention to her…

“Come in…”

Pang Yuan, who was in his office, heard the knock and called out.

Wan Yunting pushed the door open and found Zhou Dong also present. Pang Yuan exclaimed, “Xiao Wan, you’re back, have a seat…”

Wan Yunting nodded to Zhou Dong and sat down, immediately stating, “Pang Yuan, I’m reporting a case. My girlfriend, Su Ke’er, is missing!”

“What, missing?”

This made Pang Yuan and Zhou Dong stunned. Wan Yunting nodded seriously, “Yes, I’d like you to help me investigate my girlfriend’s identity!”

Pang Yuan and Zhou Dong were confused again. “Tell us more carefully first, how exactly did your girlfriend go missing…”

So Wan Yunting recounted everything, including his suspicions, in detail…

“So, you suspect that someone abducted your girlfriend?” Pang Yuan raised his eyebrows and said.

“Yes.”

Wan Yunting nodded and said, “I suspect it’s related to her family!”

“That doesn’t quite add up,” Zhou Dong found it difficult to understand. “If it were someone with malicious intent who abducted her to harm her, it would make sense. But if her family took her back, they wouldn’t cut off all contact through phone and WeChat, would they?”

Actually, Wan Yunting also had this doubt. He even worried that the “Young Master Leng” from before had abducted Ke’er for revenge!

But it had been two days. If it were really “Young Master Leng” seeking revenge, he should have given him some indication!

Moreover, even if it was for revenge, wouldn’t it be better to abduct his second brother and the others?

Therefore, Wan Yunting ruled out any connection between Su Ke’er’s disappearance and himself!

She went to work and came back from the hospital every day, interacting only with doctors like Jiang Tongxin and nurses. So, Su Ke’er couldn’t possibly have conflicts with others that would lead to malicious harm!

Then, the only focal point was that she had concealed her true family situation!

After all, Su Ke’er and Jiang Tongxin were close friends, yet she concealed her true family situation. This indicated that Su Ke’er didn’t want to reveal her true identity!

This was why Wan Yunting had come to Pang Yuan to investigate Su Ke’er’s identity.

“Zhou Dong, go to the technical department to investigate.”

“Okay.”

Zhou Dong got up and left. Pang Yuan offered Wan Yunting a cigarette. “Alright, Xiao Wan, don’t worry too much. If it’s really due to her family, then she’s definitely not in danger.”

“Mm.”

Wan Yunting took the cigarette and lit it. Now, he hoped that Ke’er’s disappearance was related to her family, rather than her being kidnapped by enemies…
