A chill rose from the soles of my feet and gradually spread, going straight into my heart. My whole body felt like I was immersed in ice water, and every inch was frozen.
There was a sudden warmth in his hand, and his body trembled. He lowered his head and saw his little daughter looking at him eagerly, with fear and uneasiness on her face.
"Daddy, has mommy been captured by bad guys? Go and rescue mommy quickly."
At some point, the little girl secretly escaped from her room and ran to find her daddy. Her little heart was full of fear.
The shadow of her brother's disappearance last time was still lingering in her heart.
Is it Mommy’s turn this time?
She was so scared, afraid that mommy would never come back!
Qi Rui seemed to have read through her thoughts, bent down and picked her up, coaxing softly, "Don't be afraid, your mommy will be home soon, you can see her when you get up for breakfast tomorrow morning.
"
Yun Xi's eyes were red and she had secretly cried.
"Really? Not a lie?"
The child's pitiful eyes broke Qi Rui's heart.
"How could Daddy lie to you? Stay at home and don't run around. Daddy will personally go out and find your mommy."
The little girl's eyes lit up and she nodded desperately, "Okay, Daddy, you have to work hard and hurry up."
Tomorrow? She believed her daddy's words, and it would be tomorrow, as long as mommy came back safely.
Qi Rui was heartbroken. As a husband, he failed to protect his wife. As a father, he failed to fulfill his father's responsibility and made his children worried.
He put the child on the sofa, waved his hand to summon Chen Xuan, gently pressed his son's shoulder, and said seriously, "Take good care of your sister, and don't trust anyone."
How could he trust the people around him after something like this happened? He directly mobilized the secret guards from Longfeng Hall to guard around the house, so that no disturbance could escape their eyes.
Chen Xuan felt a heavy weight on his shoulders and nodded equally seriously, "Okay, dad, don't worry, I will take good care of my sister."
Qi Rui comforted him a few more words and hurried out of the house.
The brother and sister were sitting on the sofa holding hands, feeling anxious and nervous.
Yun Xi bit her lip and was about to cry.
"Brother, mommy will be fine, right?"
She was very uneasy, and her whole body was tense, like a little hedgehog that could sting someone at any time.
Chen Xuan patted his sister's little head, "Yes, I promise."
His tone was firm, unquestionable, and extremely decisive.
His assurances over and over finally gave Yun Xi a moment of comfort in her fearful heart.
"Why did those bad guys kidnap Mommy? How could they be so bad?"
Mommy is a good person who has done so many good things silently and has never bullied anyone. How could they do this to her?
Unlike his younger sister who was naive and naive, Chen Xuan saw clearly, "It's all about money. Who makes our family the most money?"
Yun Xi was stunned for a while, then stared, "Then let's donate the money, that way no one will harm us."
Although she didn't understand what was wrong with having more money, since her brother said so, she naturally believed him.
The corners of Chen Xuan's lips curled up into a sneer that didn't match his age, "Fool, without money, there is no power. It will be easier for others to harm us."
The Leng family has gone through several generations and accumulated countless wealth and connections, but correspondingly, it also has countless enemies.
If the Leng family loses its power one day, those enemies will attack and bite them to pieces.
