Morning.
Hearing the sound of people talking outside, Huo Lan You, who had been sleeping lightly, immediately got up from the bed, opened the bedroom door, and walked out. Her anxious eyes turned to Officer Xing, who had not slept all night.
Even though she already knew the answer from the depths of his eyes, she still asked with a glimmer of hope, "Did you find him?"
Officer Xing shook his head with a hint of guilt, "We have searched the surrounding areas, and even sent people to search downstream of the river. We haven't found him. But not finding him is always good, at least it proves he might still be alive, perhaps... he might have been kidnapped."
"Still not found?" Huo Lan You sat disoriented in the sofa, "I don't know why, but I can feel that he seems very, very far away from me now."
"Don't say that, Xiao You," Officer Xing patted her shoulder, "I sent people to inquire about the results from Ming Yue Manor. It turns out that the woods where your operation took place are land that the Peerless Group is about to develop after acquiring in city T. The name filled in on the real estate certificate of Ming Yue Manor is Yin He Xi, the vice president of the Peerless Group."
"Are these two things related?" Huo Lan You asked in surprise.
"It seems to be unrelated indeed, but what's strange is that I heard that Yin He Xi has been missing since he left the company yesterday evening. Moreover, according to your neighbor, there have been some strange people inquiring about Lian recently."
"Lian just happened to escape from Yin He Xi's villa. He's missing, and before he disappeared, there were people inquiring about his whereabouts. It seems his identity is not simple," Duan Xu rubbed his chin as he analyzed, his gaze occasionally flickering towards Huo Lan You.
"His identity is not the most important thing to me now. I just want to find him quickly and make sure he's okay," Huo Lan You said with a troubled heart.
"I have also notified hospitals and nearby residents. Everyone will notify us if they see someone similar," Officer Xing said seriously, "In any case, you should wait patiently first."
Huo Lan You nodded and was about to speak when the door suddenly creaked open, and Xiao Xun came out in her pajamas, "Eh! Did uncles sleep at our house last night too?"
There was an awkward moment for everyone, and then Huo Lan You stepped forward, stroked her head, and nodded gently, "Yes, it was too late last night, so the uncles slept at our house."
"Is that so? Where's Daddy?" Xiao Xun looked around, "Daddy didn't tuck Xiao Xun in last night."
"Daddy..." Huo Lan You tried to smile despite the pain, "Daddy has to go out for a few days, but he will be back." He will definitely come back; how could he be willing to leave her and Xiao Xun?
"Oh, but aren't we going to see Grandpa and Grandma tomorrow?" Xiao Xun pouted, not wanting to be apart from her father.
"We'll go back in a few days, wait until Daddy comes back," Huo Lan You hugged her tightly, "Be a good girl, Xiao Xun, and we'll go after Daddy comes back."
"Okay, but why are you crying, Mommy?"
"Because... Mommy is too happy..." Huo Lan You forced a smile with tears welling up in her eyes.
Lian, you must be okay, you said you would accompany us for a lifetime...
Waiting days are tormenting. As time slips through the fingers, Huo Lan You is almost desperate every day.
Fortunately, on the third day, after the police's relentless investigation day and night, they finally found news of someone similar to Yin He Lian appearing at the Anyang Hospital in city T.
The car sped through the streets like an arrow.
Duan Xu looked at the anxious woman beside him and sighed to himself. He really didn't understand what he was doing. He didn't want her to see that man at all, but he was more worried about another matter now.
"Is it really him?" Huo Lan You was so nervous that every muscle was tense, "He appeared at the hospital. Heavens, was he seriously injured? Is there a risk to his life?"
"Xiao You, calm down, listen to what the hospital said, he was admitted three nights ago and has been out of danger," or rather not tell her that matter for now, if she knew... Ah...
"Okay, I really want to see him now, I want to see him right away," Huo Lan You was anxiously clenching her hands. The torment and worry of these days made her realize how important he was to her.
Ten minutes later, the car arrived at Anyang Hospital. Before Duan Xu could stop the car, she couldn't wait to open the car door and rush into the hospital.
