Big Shot's Sweetheart Shocked the World Again!-Chapter 223: Miss Xi’s Importance in Master’s Heart

Two hours ago.

Empire Building.

Bao Gucheng, clad in military uniform, personally oversaw the preparations for the medal ceremony and the general inauguration.

The national ceremony was scheduled to begin at six in the morning.

When the sun rose, it would be the time for him to bid a final farewell to his brothers.

He would personally receive medals and glory on their behalf, drape the Empire’s flag over them, and send them to their rest. freёwebnoѵel.com

Even though Vice President Feng Shiren and others had their own agendas, they couldn’t do anything to him. With such a Living Yama in charge, who would dare provoke him?

Medals engraved with the names of Si Shen and others, along with the three-star general uniforms, were all prepared. The red carpet was laid out from Jinshan Avenue to the Empire Building, fireworks and salutes were in place, and VIPs from home and abroad had arrived at the Imperial Capital Airport overnight, queuing up for security checks without sleep...

Everything was proceeding according to plan.

In another two hours, when the first light of dawn illuminated the earth, it would be the start of the ceremony!

Bao Gucheng’s expression slightly relaxed, and he glanced at his phone screen.

The little girl must still be sound asleep, right?

Wait.

In the middle of the night, how did the step count on her watch suddenly increase significantly?

Bao Gucheng had never easily checked Xi Zuzi’s location; it was a basic respect for privacy.

But the step count moving at midnight was too unusual. Alarm bells suddenly rang in his mind, and he couldn’t care about gentlemanly manners or privacy taboos, immediately locating her current position.

The data showed.

She had moved from home to the hospital!

Beside him, Wei Yang noticed and couldn’t help but remind him, "Mr. Bo, it seems that Miss Xi’s father is hospitalized."

Xi Yuanshan hospitalized?

Bao Gucheng imagined the face of that somewhat unreliable middle-aged businessman.

It seemed that Xi Zuzi didn’t have a particularly deep relationship with this absentee father, visiting him in the middle of the night?

Eighteen years of separation, found the child but didn’t immediately bring her back, leaving her in the countryside for half a year? It was said this was Xi Yuanshan’s idea.

After knowing about this, Bao Gucheng had no good impression of this man.

He tapped his fingers lightly on the table, pondered for a moment, and continued to trace Xi Zuzi’s movement path.

His brows gradually furrowed.

She left school early, stayed near Zhongshan Road in Qingcheng for almost the entire day—while he thought she was in class!

Looking at the map, the area around Zhongshan Road in Qingcheng had a complex layout, including malls, restaurants, amusement parks, and even a police detention center.

He called her phone, but there was no answer.

The sense of foreboding in his heart grew stronger, and he suddenly stood up, "Return to Qingcheng."

Wei Yang was stunned, "Mr. Bo, the medal ceremony is just a few hours away, if we return to Qingcheng now, we won’t make it back in time!"

The flight route between the Imperial Capital and Qingcheng normally took six hours, at the fastest, it would still take four hours. A round trip would be eight hours. It was past one in the morning, and the ceremony started at six. If he left, there was no way he could make it back!

He was also worried about Miss Xi, but he felt that visiting the father in the hospital shouldn’t be something urgent. He couldn’t understand why Mr. Bo was so anxious to return in person.

Bao Gucheng’s resolve was even more determined than he imagined.

The man’s command was resolute, "Let Chen Long go on stage for me, receive Si Shen’s medal, and support the coffin for the honors!"

Wei Yang: "...!"

Ugh! This would throw the entire schedule into chaos. Not to mention whether Chen Long had the rank to go on stage and receive Si Shen’s medal, just the matter of conferring the three-star general rank; if Mr. Bo wasn’t present, the Vice President might find an excuse to temporarily cancel it!

Miss Xi’s importance in his heart was evidently such that all of this could be disregarded?
