Tang Li's words clearly showed that she had no idea Lai Yuaner was planning to go abroad.
Realizing he had let it slip, Yang Ning promptly ended the call.
Tang Li listened to the busy signal, still mulling over Yang Ning's words "she's already gone." Sometimes, a single word can completely change the meaning.
"Already gone" implies the person has left.
Otherwise, it should be "almost gone."
Tang Li dialed Mother Wu's number and asked if Ouyang Qian and her daughters were at home.
"They're upstairs." Mother Wu informed her about the whereabouts of Ouyang Qian and her daughters: "Just now, Miss Yuanyuan pushed her sister out for a walk, but because the sun was so strong, with scarves and sunglasses, they didn't stay out long and came back soon."
Tang Li replied, "They didn't go out?"
"Not yet, as far as I know. Aunt Liu said the nursing home's car will come to pick up the elder one later."
"Is Lai Shengxia returning to the nursing home today?"
