Chapter 1981
“Yeah, he’s back . He changed his name and snuck back . That’s how he fooled everyone . ” Qin Chu regretted gravely how careless he was . He never expected Huo Siyi to dare to come back to China . After all, back then, Huo Siqian wanted to kill his whole family .
Moreover, Qin Chu never thought that Huo Siyi would go after his children rather than seek revenge on Huo Siqian .
“If Huo Siyi is behind this, then he must be after me for revenge . ” Huo Mian was able to calm down after hearing that Huo Siyi was behind it .
“Don’t worry… Huo Siyi is a simple-minded person . He’s never going to succeed, and I’m sure he probably just wants money . We’ll give him anything he wants as long as he doesn’t hurt Pudding and Little Bean . ” Qin Chu was scared that Huo Mian would become overly anxious .
“I understand . ”
“Are you feeling better?” Qin Chu asked .
“Yeah, I feel a lot better . Don’t worry about me . Focus on the kids . ”
“Okay . Can you hand the phone over to Su Yu?” Qin Chu asked matter-of-factly .
“Okay . ” Then Huo Mian handed Su Yu the phone .
“Hey, it’s me . ” Su Yu still felt awkward talking to Qin Chu over the phone, since they were in love with the same woman .
“Please take care of Mian for me… I think Huo Siyi will call her or me for the ransom… I’m afraid that she might act rashly and bring him the money herself… Huo Siyi isn’t after the money . He wants revenge . You have to keep an eye on her . If anything happens, call me!”
“Don’t worry . Leave it to me . ” Su Yu nodded .
Huo Mian asked Su Yu, “What did my husband say?” after he hung up the phone .
“Oh… He told me to take care of you . You’re not doing so well and he wants to make sure that you don’t relapse in the future . You just came back from the States, so you’re probably jet-lagged . You need to get some rest while waiting for the kids to come home . You can’t destroy your body . ”
“Really?” Huo Mian did not believe Su Yu .
“Of course… When have I ever lied to you?” Su Yu was slightly guilty .
“I’m hungry . Can you get me some food?” Huo Mian suddenly asked .
“What do you want to eat . I can get someone to buy it… It’s too much work for me to go myself…”
“…” Huo Mian didn’t say anything afterward since Su Yu didn’t fall for her trap .
At the Municipal Bureau, Qin Chu, Gao Ran, and many other police officers were busy investigating . This case was huge and they had a limited amount of time .
“Who do you think Huo Siyi would call for the ransom money?” Gao Ran asked Qin Chu .
“Probably Mian…”
“Because he’s here for revenge?” Gao Ran furrowed his brows, and Qin Chu nodded with a heavy heart . He seemed to have a lot on his mind .
“Do you think Huo Siqian will get involved?” Gao Ran analyzed the situation .
Qin Chu remained silent . It seemed like he was thinking hard about something .
Time ticked onwards, second by second…
Huo Mian was staring at her phone in the hospital . Su Yu took note of that .
“I’m going to the washroom… Are you going to follow me there?” Huo Mian got up and looked at Su Yu .
“Of course not . Do I look like such a dirty-minded person?”
Huo Mian secretly took her phone and earbuds with her to the washroom in the suite .
Su Yu was worried so he stood by the door . He suspected that she was hiding something from him .
Huo Mian sat on the toilet and stared at her phone .
In less than three minutes, a number starting with 1009 called .
Since her headphones were plugged in, her phone did not ring .
Huo Mian took the call and put on her headphones .
“Huo Mian… It’s been a long time . ” From the other side of the call, Huo Mian heard Huo Siyi’s voice, and she felt shivers echo through her body .
“Huo Siyi, where are my daughters?” Huo Mian’s voice was soft . She put the headphone microphone very close to her lips so the person on the line could hear her clearly while Su Yu, who was guarding outside, couldn’t .
