"Lu, are you and Yiyi coming home for dinner tonight?" came Ye Wanli's loving voice from the other end.
Ye Lu was taken aback, immediately sensing something was not right. Anxiously, she asked, "Dad, didn't you pick up Yiyi?"
"Pick up Yiyi? No, when did you ask me to pick her up? I didn't receive a call!"
Ye Lu's face turned pale, her lips white with terror. "What's going on?" she said hurriedly. "I have to hang up now and call Yiyi."
She ended the call, her fingers trembling as she dialed Ye Yi's number.
But the phone was switched off. Ye Lu swayed on her feet, her heart stopping with extreme panic.
What has happened? It's already been four hours since she left the hotel. How could Yiyi not have returned? Even if the clever little girl didn't call her father, she should have taken a taxi back by herself!
But so much time had passed. Where could the little girl have gone?
