Attack of the Adorable Kid: President Daddy's Infinite Pampering - Chapter 1329
Chapter 1329: Meeting
The security company advised Cen Xi to call the police.
After the person from the security company left, Cen Xi sat on the sofa in a daze. Staring at the picture on the coffee table, the emotions in her heart were surging.
The person in the picture was her sister, Xiao Ying.
Although it was just the side of her face, she could recognize her at a glance. Besides, she was wearing a necklace around her neck.
That necklace was left by her mother to her and her sister. Her necklace was with Qiao Yanze and the woman in the picture could not have gotten her necklace. So it meant that the woman was her sister, and if she was not, she had something to do with her sister.
But…
That year, when the Qiao family was ruined, Qiao Yanze and Nan Zhi were forced to leave the Capital. After her sister died, her body was thrown into an unmarked common grave and when she heard the news, she went to the grave and found a decomposed body. She thought that it was her sister and she secretly buried her in a cemetery.
Could it be that the body she found was not her sister?
Cen Xi’s mind was confused.
She sat in the living room for some time and only stood up with the picture after the locksmith had changed her lock and left.
Entering the bedroom, she turned on the computer.
The time at the bottom of the picture showed that the picture was taken two months ago.
Her sister was dressed distinctively with colorful patterns on it. Cen Xi searched the internet and found that these kinds of clothes were the characteristic of the tribe in the North.
Cen Xi posted the river in the background of the picture online and asked the netizens where such a big and clear river could be found in the North.
After waiting for nearly half an hour, Cen Xi received a reply.
There was such a river in a town at Feng City in the North, and it was a unique tourist attraction there. However, in recent years, there had been riots and few people have traveled to the North these days.
When Cen Xi searched more on the town on the Internet, she really saw the river in the picture.
In the evening, Cen Xi lay on the bed but could not sleep. She tossed and turned but sleep would not come.
She did not know who had snuck into her apartment and put the picture. Was the person luring her to go to the North?
Was her sister dead or alive?
With this happening suddenly, Cen Xi’s mind was in a mess.
She was a person who never liked to run away from things and also didn’t shy away from taking risks. She knew that there might be danger ahead, but what else could she do? Pretend to no have seen the picture? Impossible, she could do it. She had to figure out what was happening.
She still had a few days off. Perhaps she should go to Feng City.
Taking out her phone, she went online and booked the earliest flight to the North tomorrow.
…
The next day, Cen Xi video called Gu Meng. Gu Meng told her about her situation in Wen City. When her boss, Young Master Fu, found out that she was pregnant, he almost regretted taking her in as an apprentice.
“I’ve already packed my luggage and was about to move out of the apartment he had asked me to stay in when I met him at the elevator. He took my luggage back to the apartment with a dark expression and warned me that just because I’m pregnant, it doesn’t mean that I could do less work and get any special treatment.”
Although Cen Xi had only seen Young Master Fu once, she could imagine how unpleasant his face looked when he spoke those words. “Your boss’s bark is worse than his bite.”
“That’s right.” Gu Meng grinned at Cen Xi and found that Cen Xi looked a little tired. “You didn’t have a good rest last night?”
“Mm. Something happened and I’m heading up to the North later.”
“To the North?” Gu Meng’s eyes widened slightly. “I heard that it’s still quite chaotic there.” Then, seeming to have thought of something, Gu Meng asked hesitantly, “Xiao Xi, are you going to find Young Master Qiao?”
Actually, Gu Meng did not know the specific reason why Cen Xi and Qiao Yanze had broken up, but she could see that Xiao Xi still liked and cared for Young Master Qiao. Otherwise, she would not have given him her precious first time.
Hearing Gu Meng mentioning Qiao Yanze, Cen Xi was slightly stunned. She had almost forgotten that Qiao Yanze was also in the North. But it was very big in the North area, so she might not meet him!
“I have some personal matters to do. It has nothing to do with him.”
“Xiao Xi, it’s not safe there. You have to be careful when you go there.”
“Okay, don’t worry. You take good care of yourself and the baby. I’ll come to visit you in Wen City when I am on leave next time.”
After ending the video call, Cen Xi packed her luggage and went to the airport.
…
After several hours of flight, Cen Xi arrived at the North Airport in the afternoon.
The city in the North was still developing and was met with riots. Coming out of the airport, Cen Xi felt that it was not bustling like in the big cities and looked very simple.
There were old houses on both sides of the asphalt road, and only occasionally could one see tall buildings.
If Cen Xi wanted to go to Feng City, it was still dozens of kilometers away. She had checked the traffic and it was not convenient to take a bus so she went to the car rental company first.
After renting a SUV, Cen Xi drove it to the hotel she had booked and stayed there for a night before planning to leave the following morning.
But as she was lying on the hotel bed at night, Cen Xi was not sleepy. Taking out her phone, she looked at the news for a while and accidentally saw something about Qiao Yanze.
The news said that he had come to the North to calm down the riot and had achieved good results. Now, there were no rioters in the Northern provincial capital. Some of them had been arrested and only a small number of them were still fighting.
But the area had been narrowed. As long as the people did not enter Feng City and Lu City, there would be no danger to their safety.
Cen Xi frowned.
What the news meant was that people could not enter Feng City now?
Cen Xi did not know the specific situation, but she still planned to drive over there tomorrow. If she could not enter the city, she would go back to the Capital and then come back again after Qiao Yanze had caught all the rioters.
The next morning, Cen Xi got up, ate breakfast and drove the SUV to Feng City.
The sky was overcast and it looked like a storm was brewing.
Coming out of the city, Cen Xi drove straight down the highway and entered a small city. The nearer she was to Feng City, the bumpier the road was.
The rain started to pelt down.
The road condition was getting worse and Cen Xi was going crazy. No wonder there weren’t any buses in Feng City. Which driver would dare to drive on this kind of road?
All of a sudden, there was a crash and then the car engine stalled.
Cen Xi knocked onto the steering wheel and her chest hurt so much that she could not speak.
Did the car just break down?
Cen Xi unbuckled the seat belt, took out an umbrella from her bag and got out of the car to check.
There were no repair tools in the trunk. The car broke down in a secluded place, it was raining heavily and it felt a little scary.
Taking out her phone, Cen Xi wanted to call the car repair company, but there was no signal here.
Must it be so miserable?
Not a car passed by as she sat in the car and waited for nearly an hour. Perhaps she should find somewhere to hide? Otherwise wouldn’t she be in danger if the thieves saw her?
At this moment, an engine sounded and Cen Xi saw two SUVs coming over. She was surprised and alert. She got out of the car and hid by the side, waiting for the two cars to approach. When she saw the anti-riot sign, she immediately stood on the side of the road and waved.
The two cars stopped and the car window was lowered down. Cen Xi was stunned when she saw the man sitting in the front passenger’s seat.
“Why is it you?” Qiao Yanze’s low and cold voice sounded first.
