Ji Zixuan poked his sister’s shoulder and asked softly, “What happened to you?”
Ji Yuanyuan did not move and continued to lean against the car window. She said in a low voice, “It’s nothing!”
Zhang Kun looked at Ji Yuanyuan through the rearview mirror and was a little surprised.
What was going on? What happened during the day? Why did she look so listless?
“Oh right, let’s go to the mall later.” Li Xu suddenly thought of something and instructed Zhang Kun.
“Alright, what do you want to buy?” Zhang Kun asked casually.
“I promised to buy Fang Xinyi a new set of clothes this afternoon. I was preoccupied with something in the afternoon and forgot about it.” Li Xu sighed helplessly.
The mall was not on the way home, so they needed to make a turn.
Li Xu roughly knew what type of clothes Fang Xinyi was wearing. After entering the mall, she walked around twice and soon found a set she liked.
After paying, she asked the waiter to wrap the clothes up. The family took the clothes home.
They should have been able to reach home by 8 pm, but because Li Xu went to the mall, they arrived a little later.
It was already nine o’clock by the time they reached home.
Li Xu looked at the time on the car and whispered, “1’11 go home and give Fang Xinyi’s mother a call.”
Just as Li Xu finished speaking, Ji Yuanyuan suddenly sat up straight.
She looked at the seat on her right in surprise, her eyes wide open.
“What’s wrong?” Ji Zi’ang noticed Ji Yuanyuan’s abnormality and asked Ji Zixuan.
Ji Yuanyuan stretched out her hand and pointed to a spot on the right, “Mom, look over there.”
Upon hearing Ji Yuanyuan’s words, Li Xu turned around to look at Ji Yuanyuan, then looked in the direction that Ji Yuanyuan was pointing.
A few police cars were parked outside a shabby hotel by the roadside.
In the small hotel, a few men and women came out with their hands over their heads.
On a cold day, one of the women was only wearing stockings.
“Hold your head and squat down!” the police officer shouted from the side.
Li Xu thought that Ji Yuanyuan was just watching the show and hurriedly said, “There’s nothing to see. Oh right, did your teacher say anything to you today?”
It was obvious she had been caught by the police when she was doing that kind of transaction. She was afraid the children would learn from bad habits, so she quickly changed the topic.
However, Ji Zi’ang said in surprise, “That woman seems to be Fang Xinyi’s mother!”
When Li Xu heard this, she was stunned.
She turned around in disbelief and looked at him, “Are you sure?”
Her voice changed.
“Yes.” Ji Zi’ang nodded, “We’ve all met Fang Xinyi’s mother. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Big Brother and Yuanyuan.”
Li Xu looked at Ji Zixuan and Ji Yuanyuan.
“It seems so!” he said with difficulty.
Li Xu retracted her gaze and looked at the men and women on the street again.
There were a few women, but she did not know which one was Fang Xinyi’s mother.
In fact, she had already guessed it when she called her in the afternoon.
When the old lady mentioned Deng Juan, her face was full of disdain.
She said ‘their industry!’
She also said that she usually came back very late.
However, Li Xu was unwilling to think of people in a bad light.
But now, she had no choice but to accept this fact.
Fang Xinyi’s mother had indeed done a disgraceful job.
Ji Yuanyuan’s face was pressed against the cold glass, and she felt her eyes warm up.
Zhang Kun parked the car on the side of the road. Everyone looked in the direction of the police car. The atmosphere in the car suddenly dropped to freezing point.
The police drove all the people they caught into the police car, and then the police car sped away.
When the police cars could no longer be heard, Zhang Kun said, “Let’s go home!”
Li Xu replied in a whisper.
On the way back, no one spoke.
Li Xu had wanted to call Deng Juan tonight and tell her everything that happened to Fang Xinyi.
Now, there was no need to call.
Deng Juan would definitely spend the night at the police station. Even if she called her, she wouldn’t be able to pick up.
Before going to bed, Li Xu had been worrying about tomorrow.
“What do you think Fang Xinyi should do? After what happened to her mother, she probably wouldn’t be able to go back for a while. But if we send her home, her grandparents will…” Li Xu hesitated.
“It’s fine. What’s the big deal? At most, we can let Fang Xinyi stay at our house for the next two days. When her mother comes out, we can send her back.” Zhang Kun comforted her.
Li Xu shook her head, “Fang Xinyi’s grandparents must be looking for her everywhere now. If they can’t find her and call the police, won’t we be in trouble?”
Zhang Kun had already heard about what happened during the day from Li Xu.
“Do you think Fang Xinyi’s grandparents would dare to call the police?” he asked with a smile.
“Why wouldn’t I dare? My biological granddaughter was taken away by some scoundrel. Why can’t 1 call the police?” Fang Xinyi’s grandmother shouted at the top of her lungs.
“Forget it! Do you think it’s still decades ago? The police were doing nothing these days. If you called the police, what would you say? 1 didn’t want to be sued instead when the time come. You’re already so old. Just be quiet and not cause trouble!”
Fang Xinyi’s grandfather sighed helplessly.
“To tell the truth, what else can I say? Fang Xinyi is a member of our Fang Family, so what’s wrong with arranging a good family for her? They were in charge of heaven and earth, but could they care about marriage? Besides, what’s the use of saying all this now? Why didn’t you say anything when you were collecting the money?”
Fang Xinyi’s grandfather was rendered speechless.
When he had accepted the money back then, he had been a little hesitant. But that Xu guy gave him 5,000 yuan!
He had given too much!
5,000 yuan was the couple’s harvest over the past few years.
Moreover, the old lady had also said that this was a business that would definitely make a profit.
The Xu guy married a wife because he wanted to have an heir.
As long as he married Xinyi and gave birth to a son and a daughter, Xinyi’s mission would be considered complete.
By then, Xinyi would only be eighteen or nineteen years old. She was still young!
She was not old enough to get a marriage certificate. They could bring Xinyi back anytime they wanted.
When they brought her back, they would find Xinyi a good family.
He was moved by her words and agreed to the old woman’s idea.
After all, his daughter-in-law was not at home all day. As long as he sent Xinyi over, no one could say anything.
However, they had never expected someone would appear halfway.
They had ruined their good plans!
His granddaughter was missing, and that scoundrel Xu still dared to come to his house to ask for money back?
One had to know that she was lost in the Xu family. It was already good enough that they didn’t ask Xu for their granddaughter!
However, that Xu guy was not a good person either.
They would never return the money.
Now, he could only think of a way to get Xinyi back..
