CHAPTER 1055: CHAPTER 1055

It seems she really needs to learn some culinary skills, or else if she keeps letting him cook every day, when the mother-in-law visits and sees her not being so virtuous, she’ll have something to say.

So after the person with the child left, she tidied herself up, then began to clean the house and cook porridge.

This Antique Street, due to the high population density, has quite convenient surrounding facilities. Besides the nearby vegetable market, the largest supermarket is only a few kilometers away.

That’s why Ou Mucen said Bai Tingfang would be home by the time he returned, which made sense.

However, what puzzled Ye Ning was that she finished cooking the porridge and cleaning the house, yet the woman was nowhere to be found. She waited until Ou Mucen returned home, but there was still not a trace of anyone outside the small courtyard.

What’s going on?

Seeing this scene, Ou Mucen also finally began to take the matter seriously. He went downstairs to check his mother’s room and found that it hadn’t been touched at all. Standing there, his brows furrowed.

"Why don’t... you give her a call and ask?" Ye Ning was worried too, considering this place wasn’t familiar to that person, and she feared something might have happened.

Ou Mucen nodded at her suggestion and picked up his phone, dialing out.

However, to their surprise, the call went straight to voicemail, saying the phone was turned off: "Hello, the number you are dialing is currently turned off!"

Turned off?

Her phone is actually turned off?

Ou Mucen finally sensed something was wrong, standing there, he started to recall the events from last night, only to realize that Bai Tingfang said she’d go out after dinner and hadn’t returned since.

Due to waiting for news from the woman beside him last night, he hadn’t noticed any of this.

Oh god!

Could something have happened to her?

Ou Mucen finally began to panic, and without explaining to anyone nearby, he quickly grabbed his phone and rushed downstairs.

Ye Ning didn’t know what was going on, upon seeing him hurriedly rush out, she anxiously shouted from above: "Ou Mucen, where are you going?"

"I’m going to find her, stay here at home!" Ou Mucen only said this before swiftly heading out.

Bai Tingfang’s circle of friends was naturally only known to her son. Although not very clearly, he was aware of a few people she was close with, so upon finding out she hadn’t come home all night, he immediately went to find those people.

However, Ou Mucen became even more anxious when he found out that none of his mother’s friends had seen or heard from her yesterday.

Upon hearing this, Ou Mucen’s heart sank completely into the depths!

It was at this moment that he received a call from his mother’s phone. He was overjoyed to see it and immediately answered it: "Mom, where did you go? You..."

"May I ask if you know this phone’s owner?"

"What do you mean? Owner of the phone?"

"Yes, I’m from the traffic police squad. Last night, there was a serious car accident on Ring North Road. This phone was found on one of the deceased. If you know her, please come to the traffic police squad immediately."

"..."

There was an instant as if a sudden bolt of lightning struck from above, and he stood there, hearing a buzzing sound, his tall frame momentarily frozen, his mind turning blank.
