What Xiao Jiu meant was that if he had come earlier, he would have been able to see Mommy. Maybe Mommy wouldn’t have been taken away by an uncle.
As for which uncle it was, he didn’t know either.
Fu Tingyu held Xiao Jiu in his arms. He felt that Xiao Jiu was heavier. He also felt that he, as a father, was very good. He even knew how to hold his son. When he was Xiao Jiu’s age, not to mention hugging, Fu Beichen’s expressionless face, had never been kind to him at all.
He looked into the courtyard, but he did not see Babe. He asked, “Where’s your mommy?”
Xiao Jiu remembered that her mommy had been taken away by her uncle. He gestured for Fu Tingyu to let him down.
Fu Tingyu knew that his son wanted to come down, so he let him slide down.
After Xiao Jiu stood up, he looked up at Fu Tingyu with his small face. “Mommy was taken away by Uncle just the day before yesterday.”
When Fu Tingyu heard that his wife had been taken away by another man, how could he not be anxious?
“Which uncle took her away?” His voice sounded slightly anxious.
Xiao Jiu could tell from Fu Tingyu’s expression that he was not only anxious but also angry. He replied in a low voice, “I don’t know which uncle it was either. I only know that uncle called Mommy baby.”
Called her baby?
When Fu Tingyu heard such an intimate nickname, his face turned green. He was calling her so intimate and even kidnapping his wife?
Xiao Jiu saw that Fu Tingyu’s face turned green. Daddy called Mommy Babe, and uncle called Mommy baby. It was obvious without saying.
Ling’er walked out of the house at this time and saw the tall and straight man in front of Xiao Jiu. After not seeing him for so many years, she could still recognize him at a glance. He was Fu Tingyu, and he changed quite a lot.
She still remembered that when she first saw him, he was still a teenager.
The second time she saw him was in Lin City. This sudden meeting made her surprised.
After he opened his mouth, she knew that he was here for Xiao Bao.
She rejected him directly.
She still remembered that Fu Tingyu looked frustrated at that time. He asked her why she didn’t want him to find Ling Bao?
He thought it was because of a personal problem.
At that time, he still did not know Xiao Bao’s real name.
She did not say anything, just told him not to disturb Xiao Bao’s life.
Later, he accidentally heard Feng Jiuxiao mention it.
He said: “I thought that Xiao Bao liked Han Xiao, Han Xiao was mature and steady, and suitable for Xiao Bao too. I didn’t expect that she would be together with Fu Tingyu.”
Fu Tingyu saw Ling’er walking over. Although she was older, he could still see the shadow of Babe in her eyes.
After so many years, he realized that she was not much older. She had taken proper care of herself.
He called Ling’er respectfully, “Mom.”
This call of “mom” was quite natural. Ling’er smiled and said, “You are here. You are worn out from travel. Sit down and rest for a while. Xiao Bao was taken away by someone she knows. There is no danger. She will be back in a few days.”
Ling’er’s words were somewhat comforting.
Fu Tingyu had no choice but to sit down first. The female servant poured tea and served him water.
Xiao Jiu sat obediently at the side and looked at Fu Tingyu.
Fu Tingyu couldn’t sit still when he knew that Babe had been taken away. He looked at Ling’er. No matter how anxious he was, he asked very politely, “Does mom know who took Babe away?”
Ling’er took out the letter and handed it to Fu Tingyu. She said gently, “This is the letter left behind by that person. Take a look and see if you recognize it.”
Fu Tingyu took it eagerly. He lowered his eyes and looked at the contents of the letter. In fact, it was just a short and clear sentence.
His tone seemed to be respectful, but he was doing the work of a bandit.
Baby?
Fu Tingyu thought for a while. He took out his phone and sent a message to a few people.
The message said, “How long will you stay?”
There are only a few uncles that Xiao Jiu mentioned. It must be one of them who took Babe away.
He and Babe got married and had children. They lived happily, but still, they don’t give up.
After a while, he received several messages.
[ Han Xiao: ? ? ? ]
[ Hua Wuyan: Did you send the wrong message? ]
[ Qin Feng: How did you know that I was coming back? I plan to stay here for a long time. ]
Fu Tingyu’s message was purely a probe. If it wasn’t the three of them, then it must be Jun Li?
Or the leader of the Crimson Sand Organization?
He felt that the crimson sand organization was the most suspicious.
He looked up at Ling’er and replied, “I guess it’s my enemy, the leader of the Crimson Sand Organization.”
“Your Enemy?” Ling’er could not help but start to worry. She asked in fear, “Then will he hurt Xiao Bao?”
“If we’re talking about hurting…” Fu Tingyu pondered for a moment. Other than kidnapping and hurting Babe a long time ago, he had helped babe in the end. However, that should not the reason why Chao Yan took Babe away.
He saw that he was not a good person. He always found excuses to get close to Babe. It was clear that he was plotting something evil.
He suddenly seemed to understand something. Did he like Babe? Did he want to keep her for himself?
He clenched the letter in his hand and stood up abruptly. “I’m going to look for Babe.”
Xiao Jiu stood up as well. He moved his small body and cooperated very well. “Daddy, I’m going too.”
Fu Tingyu warned coldly, “Don’t cause trouble.”
Xiao Jiu tilted his head and said seriously, “I’m not causing trouble. I’m going to look for Mommy. I’m also going to look for uncle.”
He wants to know which uncle took mommy away
“Are you really going to look for Xiao Bao? Isn’t the leader of the Crimson Sand organization very mysterious? His whereabouts are uncertain, so it’s more difficult to find him.”
Ling’er was not familiar with the crimson sand organization. She only heard a little about it, so she was still worried.
Fu Tingyu gritted his teeth. “If I don’t look for him, my wife will be snatched away.”
Xiao Jiu asked fearlessly, “Then would I have a stepdad?”
Fu Tingyu looked at his son coldly. He felt that this was not his biological son. He was hoping for a stepdad?
Ling’er saw that Xiao Jiu was still able to joke at this time. When she saw Fu Tingyu’s expression, she held back her laughter and said, “You can’t rush to look for him. You have to know where Xiao Bao is.”
“Even if he is cunning, I will dig three feet into the ground and bring my wife back.” Fu Tingyu said fiercely. In front of his mother-in-law, he does not feel embarrassed at all when he called his wife’s name.
When Feng JiuXiao came, he heard Fu Tingyu’s words and he walked straight over.
Fu Tingyu immediately noticed that Feng JiuXiao had come. Because his master’s aura was too strong, he could not ignore it even if he wanted to.
He turned to look at Feng JiuXiao and called out respectfully, “Dad.”
He was used to calling him master, so he was not used to calling him dad all of a sudden.
Feng JiuXiao strolled to the table and sat down. He looked at Ling’er and poured her a glass of water. He asked Fu Tingyu, “You’re going to find Xiao Bao.”
Fu Tingyu nodded. “Yes, Dad. I think the person who took Babe away did not have good intentions.”
Feng JiuXiao looked up at Fu Tingyu. He had watched Fu Tingyu grow up during his martial arts training. He was more hardworking and talented than anyone else in martial arts. He just did not expect that he would like Xiao Bao.
His voice was clear and cold. “Xiao Bao will be back in a while.”
Fu Tingyu looked up at Feng JiuXiao too. He did not understand the meaning of his words. Isn’t this considered a case of the kidnapping of Babe? As his father, was he not anxious at all?
In any case, he was burning with anxiety.
Fu Tingyu repeated it. “He is plotting something. I must bring Babe back.”
Feng JiuXiao saw that Fu Tingyu looked like he could not wait to rush out to look for him. He pondered for a moment and said: “Then we will look for him after dinner.”
Fu Tingyu looked down at the time on his watch. It was only 3:30 in the afternoon and there were still at least three hours before dinner…
Father-in-law, what the h*ll Is going on?
When Feng JiuXiao left, he said, “Follow me to the study room.”
How could Fu Tingyu not go? It was his master and father-in-law, so he could only follow obediently.
He realized that Feng JiuXiao was on par with his father. Each of them had a poker face and no expression when they spoke. Their tone was as cold as ice, making it hard to tell if they were angry or not.
After Feng JiuXiao and Fu Tingyu left, Xiao Jiu quickly got down from the chair and came in front of Ling’er. She asked worriedly, “Grandma, will my mommy be okay?”
Ling’er was initially worried, but when she saw Feng Jiu Xiao’s calm expression, she felt that he knew who took her daughter away and also knew about her daughter was going to be okay.
She comforted Xiao Jiu, “She will be fine. Don’t worry.”
Xiao Jiu heaved a sigh of relief. “Then I’m relieved.”
Xiao Jiu then asked curiously: “Then why did grandfather want to talk to my father alone?”
Ling’er thought for a while and said: “It might be a casual chat. They used to be master and disciple, they must have something to talk about.”
“Oh.” Xiao Jiu thought about it and agreed.
It was just that Fu Tingyu was called over by Feng JiuXiao to scold him.
He was scheming against his daughter!
He was being a hoodlum to his daughter!
Wait…
At night.
Qin Shu did not go out for the whole day. She just sat in her room. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She just had nowhere to vent her anger.
But she did not want to look for Chao Yan. She knew that it was useless to look for him. He would not let her go.
If he had let her go so easily, he would not have spent so much effort to bring her here.
Qin Shu still did not have much of an appetite during dinner time. She did not even take a bite.
Yin Shi was still standing at the side, waiting. From time to time, he would look up at Qin Shu, as if he wanted to say something but was hesitant.
Qin Shu noticed it too, but she did not ask because she guessed that Yin Shi was doing this because of his master and because of what she said this morning.
After dinner, she took out a tissue to wipe the corner of her mouth, then stood up and left. She didn’t look at Yin Shi’s hesitant expression.
Outside, the street lamps had long been lit. In the night sky, the stars were twinkling. On the mountaintop, the starlight was even brighter and more dazzling.
She walked along the bluestone road, listening to the sound of insects.
Yin Shi followed from afar. He was hesitant, at the same time conflicted about whether to say it or not.
When they passed by the artificial lake, Qin Shu glanced at the gazebo in the middle of the lake and found that the white figure was still there. There was a faint and gentle light in the gazebo, so they could not see inside. They could only see the white figure sitting there motionlessly.
Childish!
Qin Shu retracted her gaze and continued walking.
Yin Shi walked to the shore and stopped. He turned his head to look at the gazebo in the middle of the lake. In fact, he did not understand why his master had to sit there motionlessly every day. Even the monks on the mountain could not sit there for an entire day.
Yin Shi didn’t follow Chao Yan since he was young. When he met Chao Yan, Chao Yan was just eighteen years old. At that time, he was a gold-medal killer that made people tremble in fear.
He did not know anything about Chao Yan before he was eighteen years old.
He felt sorry for his master. He wanted Miss Qin to accompany him, but he sat in the centre of the lake every day and did not let anyone get close.
Master did not say anything.
After Qin Shu returned to her room, she went to take a shower.
She took a very slow shower. As she took a shower, she thought, is there any way to go down the mountain?
By the time she finished showering, her skin was red from the hot water. Her skin was fair and looked even redder.
She took out a towel and casually wiped off the water droplets. Then, she put on her nightgown and lay on the bed. When she passed by the bookshelf, she took out a book and lay on the bed, reading books to kill time.
The lamp at the bedside was very soft, so she did not feel uncomfortable when she read.
Reading books could make people quiet down and calm down.
In addition, the light incense in the room had a calming effect.
Unknowingly, she felt sleepy. Her eyelids started to fight, and she could not pull them open. Qin Shu could not resist the sleepiness. She leaned on the bedside and tilted her head, falling asleep.
It was getting late, and the shadows of the trees outside the window were imprinted on the window, forming a beautiful silhouette.
The tightly shut door was pushed open with a creak, and a slender white figure walked in. Under the moonlight, her bright and clean jaw became even paler.
After the light from the door shone on her, the slender figure slowly came to the side of the bed, as if she had walked many times. Even if he couldn’t see it, he could still come to the side of the bed accurately.
Just like last night, he sat down by the side of the bed. His pale and slender fingers slowly groped around. When his fingers touched her hand, he felt her warm body temperature. For a moment, he could not bear to move it away.
He knew that she had fallen asleep. Because of the incense, she would not wake up easily.
He hesitated for a moment. His hand moved to her hand and then held her hand. He felt her body temperature silently and familiarized himself with it.
After a long while, his pale lips moved up and down, it was as if he was talking to himself. “Baby, I’m very easy to coax, but you just don’t want to coax me. You don’t have to talk, just give me candy. You can sit by my side too, don’t have to talk, just accompany me quietly.”
” Just like when I was young, if I didn’t talk, you would sit by my side, like coaxing a child, taking out a candy.”
” You would tell jokes to me too, ridiculing how your nemesis always bullied you and praising Ling Han for being especially good to you.
Chao Yan spoke slowly, his voice was very, very low. He wanted to be heard but was afraid of being heard too.
Qin Shu, who was sound asleep, could not hear.
After a long silence, Chao Yan reluctantly let go of her hand, stretched out his arms, and carried her up. Then, he laid her flat on the bed. The book fell from her body and fell right on his knee. After placing Qin Shu down, he picked the book up and placed it on the bedside table.
He paused for a moment, took off his shoes, then he lifted the blanket and slowly lay down beside her. He moved very gently, afraid that he would wake her up.
He could only lie beside her when she was sleeping soundly. Otherwise, he would not have a chance.
He tilted his head as if he was looking at her. However, it was pitch-black before his eyes. There was not even a speck of starlight.
“I don’t even have the chance to see your face. Can I at least touch you?”
Although his tone was inquisitive, his hand had reached out and tried a few times. At first, he touched her chin, then her lips. The soft-touch made him pause, then her nose, and finally her eyes.
What Xiao Jiu meant was that if he had come earlier, he would have been able to see Mommy. Maybe Mommy wouldn’t have been taken away by an uncle.
As for which uncle it was, he didn’t know either.
Fu Tingyu held Xiao Jiu in his arms. He felt that Xiao Jiu was heavier. He also felt that he, as a father, was very good. He even knew how to hold his son. When he was Xiao Jiu’s age, not to mention hugging, Fu Beichen’s expressionless face, had never been kind to him at all.
