Xue Yang shook his head: "I don't know, it seems that Ah Qing is busy with something. The third child designed the logo I wanted and told me when he sent it to me."
Cheng Huanran's eyes flashed slightly and he asked calmly: "When will you return?"
"In the past two days," Xue Yang explained: "He said he was already packing his luggage. Anyway, they have their own plane, and it's just a matter of instructions when they come back."
Cheng Huanran nodded lightly.
Xue Yang added: "Lao San said that they don't plan to live in Xinyuan."
"Oh?" Cheng Huanran raised his eyebrows and asked, "Don't live here? Then where do they decide to live?"
Xue Yang replied: "He only said he couldn't stay here, but he didn't say where he was going. I was busy at that time, so I didn't ask carefully."
"Young Master Qing has real estate properties all over the world." Xiao Huzi leaned on the armrest of the sofa and said, "There are also countless properties here in the imperial capital. You can pick a place to live at any time. There is no need to squeeze in with the rest of us."
Cheng Huanran lowered his eyes and said, "As long as Ah Qing is in the imperial capital in the past few years, he will basically stay here in Xinyuan."
"It's so lively!" Xue Yang said with a smile, "But this time, my grandpa and mom are not here. There are just a lot of little carrots in Xinyuan. I guess they are already bored to death there, so I will hide away for now."
Xiao Huzi laughed and patted Xue Yang on the head.
"Those of us who are left with children, in name only keep each other company and help each other, but in fact we are killing each other. If you give me half a pound, I will give you half a pound! Come on! Who is afraid of who!"
The two laughed.
Cheng Huanran was not in the mood to joke, so he stood up holding his phone and walked slowly back to his room.
The next morning, everyone got up one after another, ate breakfast in a hurry, and went to work and school.
While Xue Ling watched the three little babies playing with building blocks, she made a video call with her husband who was overseas. She was concerned about the health of her parents and her baby daughter, who was pregnant with her baby bump.
Cheng Tianyuan asked her when she could go back.
Xue Ling was a little hesitant. It was originally discussed that after the child was returned to the second son and his wife, she would fly back immediately.
But now Zheng Duoduo and Xiao Tong are divorcing, and she really can't just leave.
She said that if she waits for a while, she hopes that the two of them can reconcile early and avoid getting divorced.
Cheng Tianyuan told her that Ahu had contacted Tong Zi and Chen Lan and asked them to persuade Xiao Tong.
"They all said they were so busy. One was busy recuperating from illness, the other was busy fixing up the decorations and getting ready to marry his daughter-in-law. They couldn't take care of Xiao Tong at all."
Xue Ling said with a sullen face: "It's just an excuse. If you really want to persuade me, it can only take a phone call. It's not like you're lying in the hospital unable to move, so why can't you hang up the phone? No matter how busy you are, you can always spare a few minutes to find your daughter.
Right? You don’t have time to say a few words of advice? Even if you are busy until two or three o’clock in the evening, it will only take two or three minutes.”
Cheng Tianyuan naturally understood that they were making excuses and couldn't help but feel angry secretly.
"I don't know what they are thinking!"
Xue Ling hesitated for a moment and whispered his guess.
"They...maybe want to test Duoduo."
Cheng Tianyuan was stunned for a moment and asked: "Testing? Testing for what?"
Xue Ling explained: "A few days ago, I had a phone call with the old couple. I talked for a long time, but Tongzi was talking about him and couldn't tell the main point. He kept repeating
, Zheng Duoduo is too career-minded, does not respect Xiao Tong's career, and does not love their small family. What else does he say - he does not take Xiao Tong into his heart unless he can prove it with actual actions. If he dares to divorce, he dares
If you divide your property, you can get by."
"...Are you sick?" Cheng Tianyuan was stunned for a few seconds and said angrily: "Using divorce to prove that your son-in-law is sincere to your daughter? What are you trying to do? After divorce, is he still your son-in-law?! What kind of thing is this?
Absurd!"
Xue Ling felt the same way and rubbed his temples.
"Xiao Tong's thinking is a bit strange. It cannot be caused by groundless speculation or genetic mutation. It has a lot to do with the family atmosphere and the thoughts of his parents."
Cheng Tianyuan was a little irritated and explained: "Ahu said that Alan never had any ideas. Tongzi always made the final decision on everything in the family. He and Amin tried to persuade her, but she didn't dare to listen to them."
"Forget it." Xue Ling whispered: "Let's just wait and see what happens. We can do our best. No matter how much we want to, we can't help them live as a couple. If they have to get divorced in the end, it is their own choice.
I can’t blame anyone else.”
Cheng Tianyuan was quiet for a moment and sighed: "This is the only way."
At this time, Xue Ling's cell phone beeped twice, indicating that there was an incoming call.
She glanced at him, hurriedly said she would talk to him later, and then quickly answered the phone.
"Xiao Tong? What's wrong? Ah? Xiao Zheng Zheng? No! What?! The child is missing?!"
…
Late at night, the extended-length luxury car turned into Xinyuan.
Before the car entered the garage, the back door opened.
Xue Ling hurriedly got out of the car and ran to the monitoring room with a tired face.
"How is it? There are no children outside the front door or at the back door? There are always no children?"
The security guard on duty frowned and shook his head: "...No."
Xue Ling asked: "Have you watched the surveillance video last night a few times? The one in the early morning? Have you watched it too?"
"Madam, I've looked at it dozens of times." The security guard explained: "There really isn't one. We even looked at the surveillance cameras at the intersection, and each of us took turns to look at it several times... but there's nothing there."
Xue Ling sighed in disappointment and walked inside with tired steps.
"Mom!" Wang Xiaoxiao, who was waiting at the entrance, rushed out and hurriedly helped Xue Ling's arm, "Are you... okay? Mom, you look so bad!"
Xue Ling shook his head: "After a day of cold wind... I'm a little tired. It's okay. Let's go inside."
Wang Xiaoxiao helped her into the living room and hurriedly poured her a cup of ginger tea and red date water.
"Mom, hurry up! Drink some while it's hot."
Xue Ling thanked him, took the cup and drank more than half of it before his body gradually warmed up.
Then, she looked around and asked, "Where are the others? None of them have responded yet?"
"No." Wang Xiaoxiao whispered with red eyes: "It's been a whole day... I don't know where Xiao Zheng went... whether he met a human trafficker..."
Xue Ling sighed softly and said softly: "Don't cry. The police have been called now. They are radiating in every direction from the hotel. We are looking for it bit by bit. Don't worry, you will find it soon."
Wang Xiaoxiao sniffed and tried her best to hold back tears.
"Well... in the evening, my eldest brother and Yang Yang have bought some self-media advertisements and broadcast a missing person notice every five minutes. Anyone who can provide clues will receive a reward of 200,000."
"Don't be too showy." Xue Ling said hesitantly: "This will save you from being targeted by some criminals and causing trouble. It will also delay our time to find the child."
Wang Xiaoxiao asked anxiously: "Why did the hotel front desk let the child run out of the door alone? Xiao Tong didn't know that the child ran out?"
