Chapter 263: Chapter 263 - The Head Honcho Escaped
Yun Lin would be alone after he was sent to school . She didn’t know how many people there were . They could have taken the stone quietly, but still, they hid a bomb under her bed . They were as crazy as murderers .
Since someone watched Qian Qian, no matter if this person had another reason or not, Yun Xiangxiang was still worried that there would be an ambush at school .
If they failed in their operation, they could harm her family and friends . She had already troubled Han Zhaolin to take care of her parents and Qian Qian . Song Qian wasn’t free to help either . Yun Xiangxiang could only ask He Wei for help .
Yun Xiangxiang calmed down a lot after he agreed to help . Even so, she was still panicking, and it showed when she was in a video call session with Song Mian .
Song Mian noticed her panic, “If someone could hurt you even in Beijing, that would be a lifetime’s humiliation . ”
When Song Mian had given her his guarantee, Yun Xiangxiang stowed her panic away . She wanted to cuddle him, “When are you coming back, Ah Mian?”
“Are you missing me?” Song Mian smiled . His eyes sparkled like a night sky dazzled with stars .
“Yes, I do . Especially when I’m weak and tired,” Yun Xiangxiang nodded honestly .
“I am glad that I have become the one you want to rely on the most,” Song Mian looked happy . “I’ll come back as fast as I can . ”
“I’ll be waiting for you . But do take care of yourself, and don’t rush your work,” Yun Xiangxiang reminded him .
She only showed her weakness for an instant . She became her rational self again . Song Mian was expecting her to act cute and be unreasonable, like asking him to come back immediately .
But she didn’t give him the chance to spoil her .
“You too . Don’t overthink it . Everything’s going to be better after tomorrow . ” Song Mian reminded her gently before saying good night .
Yun Xiangxiang couldn’t sleep no matter what . She wasn’t as panicked now, but she still felt like a mess .
She tossed and turned . After an hour, someone rang her doorbell . It was Song An, the Song Family’s main butler!
“The young master asked me to send some warm milk to you, Miss Yun,” Song An held a thermos .
Yun Xiangxiang was speechless, “I’m sorry for troubling you over some milk . And it’s already so late too . ”
“It’s fine, Miss Yun . The master and young master can only relax if everything is well with you . As long as they’re happy, we are happy,” said Song An gently .
Song An might refer to himself as a servant, but Yun Xiangxiang thought of him as an elder . Yun Xiangxiang wouldn’t waste even a drop of milk her elder sent to her at this hour .
“Don’t worry, Miss Yun . The master is in Beijing,” Song An calmed her down before he left .
Yun Xiangxiang couldn’t waste Song Mian’s efforts in protecting her . If he knew she lost sleep over the matter, he would go even further to keep her safe .
She didn’t want that to happen, so she went to sleep .
Thanks to the milk, she managed to drift off to sleep quickly . She had good sleep for a few hours .
But soon, she had a dream . Someone was holding her by the neck and dangling her over a cliff . She fought and tried to break free, but she failed . In the end, she was pushed off the cliff .
Shocked by her dream, she jolted up . Her body was drenched in cold sweat . Ai Li looked at her worriedly . She grinned, “It’s fine . Just a bad dream . ”
She went about her routine as usual . This morning, she was even more unfocused . Du Changrong pushed her filming back .
She turned on her phone, but she couldn’t connect to her security system . She was in the dark about what was happening back there .
Only when Song Qian and He Wei brought Yun Lin to see her in the afternoon did she relax .
The news had reported the case, claiming that it was a simple burglary . Yun Xiangxiang was left out of the news .
She called Han Zhaolin to thank him . She believed that he must have done something to get the news outlets to not mention her in their reports .
Han Zhaolin was a man of few words . “No problem,” he replied .
“The dark green jade is broken,” Song Qian told her .
The criminals were blocked after they had gotten the jade . Even if they knew they were trapped, they still tried to fight their way out .
The one with the jade threw it down the building to distract the police . Dark green jade might be more durable than jadeites, but it couldn’t take this impact . It was smashed into pieces . Fortunately, no one was hit .
“Are all of them captured?” Yun Xiangxiang wanted to know about this more than the jade .
Even if the broken stone was the black jadeite, Yun Xiangxiang would only think of it as a loss . She wouldn’t lose sleep over it .
“There are twelve people in their group,” Song Qian told Yun Xiangxiang about their recon, locking on, baiting, and capture of the criminals . At least she told her the parts she was in .
It was a big group . People were watching Yun Xiangxiang’s family and Qian Qian . But all of them were captured .
“Aww man, that sounds so cool . Shame I missed it,” Yun Lin looked disappointed . He loved stories like this .
Yun Xiangxiang smacked his head angrily, “Do you have any idea how dangerous it is?”
Yun Lin rubbed his head and jumped away with Little Fairy . The cat had a shock . She was sleeping soundly when the sound of a fight woke her . She was greeted by the battle between cops and criminals .
Everyone was safe . Nobody died . Yun Xiangxiang had a happy lunch with them . It had been days since she had a good lunch or a good rest .
She took a nap in the afternoon and came back feeling refreshed . She could film normally again .
Du Changrong didn’t know what happened . He was just thinking about her recovery when Yun Xiangxiang returned to her old self . He was relieved .
Qian Yongnian didn’t go back to his grandson . He just went to the airport for show, and returned to Yun Xiangxiang’s house after video calling his grandson . He immediately started work after Yun Xiangxiang gave him permission . The sooner the stone was made into accessories, the sooner she could relax .
She thought everything had gone back to how they were, but two days later, Captain Luo called her . He asked her to make a trip to the station .
Yun Xiangxiang didn’t expect to be greeted by this news, “Are you saying one of them escaped?”
Captain Luo looked grim, “We found their base of operations . Judging by the traces left there, we believe that one of their bosses had escaped . ”
The scene was cleaned up, but since they ran away hastily, it wasn’t cleaned up enough . They knew one of them had escaped, but they didn’t know his identity .
