Chapter 461: Carry Her Upstairs

He continued the topic that he had not finished earlier and said,

"One thing is for sure, this is definitely a premeditated kidnapping."

Gu Shimo began to analyze.

"I strongly suspect that they had already entered the amusement park a day ago."

"The amusement park is such a big place. They can just find a random place to hide and no one will notice them."

"In this way, Zixi School will reserve the entire playground today. When they show up again, the playground will be filled with adults and children. They will be carrying or carrying a sleeping child on their backs, so they won’t attract any attention."

"From the surveillance cameras, we can’t find any suspicious people entering and leaving the amusement park today."

Lu Mingyu nodded in agreement." That’s right. That’s why the police are just wasting their time and doing useless things by checking the surveillance cameras today."

"As the saying goes, it’s easy to dodge an open spear, but difficult to defend against an arrow in the dark. Since they’ve planned it out, our Zixi is destined to be unable to escape this calamity."

"They went through so much trouble to kidnap Zixi, so it’s impossible for them to just kidnap a child. They’re most likely targeting me or Wanwan."

"I feel that the chances of them coming for you are higher."

Lu Mingyu calmly analyzed," I heard that the other party actually dared to appear at the scene and boldly left a message for Wanwan. I suspect that there’s a mole in the police station. Anyway, it’s definitely not an ordinary thief. Most criminals would avoid the police subconsciously."

"The Public Security Bureau isn’t an iron plate."

Gu Shimo said.

Many people were eyeing Fu Yushen’s position covetously, hoping that he would commit some serious violation of discipline and drag him down completely.

Therefore, it was very likely that there was a mole in the police station.

"Especially since the other party not only swaggered to the scene, but also saw through Fu Yushen’s arrangements. This is basically confirmed."

"So, even if the other party doesn’t ask the police to evacuate, I don’t feel at ease letting the police handle this matter. Oh right, Gu Feng, didn’t you say you saw the person who brought Wanwan food? Do you remember his features?"

Gu Shimo turned to Gu Feng and asked. NovelFire

Gu Feng looked ashamed and knelt down with a thud.

"Gu Feng deserves to die. It was very dark at that time, and I was only focused on Miss Qing Wan who was sitting in the car. Because I saw the person who delivered the food wearing a police uniform, I didn’t think of anything else. I was in a hurry to go to the bathroom, so I didn’t pay attention to what he looked like."

"Alright, don’t kneel for no reason."

Gu Shimo frowned." It’s a fact that we can’t change. Let’s focus on what comes next!"

Gu Feng still wanted to say something, but Gu Shimo could not be bothered to waste any more time on him. Instead, he continued the discussion.

"Come on, where did you go just now? I’ll also understand the specific process and see if I can find any clues. Wanwan?"

Feeling Ye Qingwan’s head drooping down, Gu Shimo was stunned for a moment. Then, he gently pinched her fingers, afraid to disturb her. His tone was so gentle that water was about to drip out.

Wanwan, are you asleep?"

After a while, Ye Qingwan didn’t respond.

She had been tormenting herself for the whole day. Now that she was relaxed, she must have fallen asleep because she was too tired.

"I’ll carry her up to sleep first before coming down."

Gu Shimo greeted the others and took off the wet towel above her eyes. He was about to carry her upstairs in a princess hug.

Unexpectedly, the moment he touched her, she woke up immediately.

"Zixi! Zixi!"

"Wanwan!" Gu Shimo’s heart ached. This feeling was probably nothing more than being cut into pieces, right?

"You’re too tired, I’ll carry you up to sleep first, okay?"

He coaxed her with the gentlest and most loving tone in the world. At this moment, he would not hesitate to dig out his heart, let alone pluck the stars from the sky.

Chapter 462: Analysis One by One

But Ye Qingwan refused. She shook her head violently and said,"

"No, I’m not sleeping. I’m not sleepy! I want to wait for the call. They will call again. I want to hear Zixi’s voice."

She was afraid that Gu Shimo would insist on her going to sleep because he felt sorry for her.

She begged him,

"Brother Shi Mo, don’t chase me to sleep, okay? How can I sleep? I’m afraid I’ll have nightmares. I’m so scared! We haven’t finished our review yet. We still have to find clues to save Zixi. Brother Shi Mo!"

Every time she called him "Brother Shi Mo", his heart would soften.

Seeing her terrified and determined look, how could Gu Shimo still be ruthless?

"Okay, then let’s finish the review first. When you’re tired, I’ll send you up to sleep, okay?"

"Good!" Ye Qingwan was relieved to see him compromise.

Gu Shimo asked Zuo Zhi to get a new wet towel. He still let Ye Qingwan lie down with her eyes closed and used the wet towel to apply a cold compress.

This way, she could make her eyes feel more comfortable, and at the same time, it would not affect her narration of what had happened. View the correct content at NovelFire

Unfortunately, before Zixi’s disappearance, Ye Qingwan and Zixi had been with the parents of the students in the same class and didn’t notice anything unusual.

After that, Ye Qingwan couldn’t care about anything else. She was only focused on finding Zixi and couldn’t remember anything useful.

The whole story was told when the police left and Gu Feng sent Ye Qingwan home.

Everyone realized that they had once again entered a dead end.

He had no idea where to start.

"Although we haven’t found anything yet, we haven’t come out empty-handed."

Gu Shimo tapped his fingers on the table and said thoughtfully.

"Their methods of committing crimes are brilliant and meticulous. They also have a certain degree of anti-investigation awareness. They are either habitual criminals or experts. So, let’s list out the names of the people who might have done this kind of case."

Gu Shimo asked Gu Feng to find a pen and paper and began to list the names on the paper.

Leng Xiao was the first to speak,"I suggest Zhao Qinlan, that vicious woman!""

As he said this, he deliberately glanced at Gu Ziyang.

"Not only did she kill my parents and Wanwan’s parents, but she’s also not even letting a child off. Only an inhumane and vicious woman like her would do such a thing."

Gu Ziyang held back his anger and did not dare to retort when he heard him calling his mother a ’vicious woman’.

It wasn’t that he was afraid of being beaten up by Leng Xiao, but since he was here, he had no right to help Zhao Qinlan.

"Actually, in my heart, I’m more inclined to the assassin who chased after me before. This is an extremely cunning character."

Gu Shimo voiced his opinion.

"In addition, considering that there is a mole in the police station, I recommend Wang Yiming. He was older than Fu Yushen, but he had to be under Fu Yushen, the director of the Public Security Bureau."

"In his heart, he must be unconvinced. If he has the chance to take down Fu Yushen, I believe he won’t be stingy."

"Moreover, it’s too convenient for him to plant people in the Public Security Bureau. Every move of the police is under his nose."

"This doesn’t make sense."

Leng Xiao, who had always been straightforward, immediately raised a question." If it was arranged by Wang Yiming, why didn’t he target the Fu family directly? Why did he target Zixi, who had nothing to do with him?"

Lu Mingyu explained for Gu Mo,"You don’t understand the twists and turns of officialdom.""

"Even if they hate each other to the bone, they still have to be friendly on the surface. If he attacked directly, he would be the first to be suspected, not to mention whether he would succeed or not."

"Only a person who is unafraid of death would dare to lay a hand on a dignified Director of the Public Security Bureau, right?"

Leng Xiao suddenly realized something." Ah, so they deliberately provoked Wanwan. I didn’t expect Wanwan to say something like setting fire to the police station."

Even if Ye Qingwan didn’t really burn down the police station in the end...

Even if he just sat down with a banner, Fu Yushen, the director of the Public Security Bureau, would be in deep trouble.

Lu Mingyu nodded." You’ve comprehended it."

Leng Xiaoduan also voiced his thoughts."What about competition? Could it be He Meijuan from last time?"

Chapter 463: The Kidnapper’s Phone Call

"He Meijuan?"

Gu Shimo expressed his doubts." Is she willing to spend so much money to hire professionals to do the work? However, he couldn’t completely rule out this possibility. He would first write down her name and start the follow-up investigation tomorrow."

"There’s also Xue Yunfei. Oh right, there’s also someone called Gao Jiaxiang."

Gu Shimo thought for a moment and said two more names as he wrote them down on the paper.

Just as she was racking her brains to think of the next name list, her phone suddenly rang.

Everyone subconsciously looked at their phones and realized that it was the old man’s phone that the kidnapper had given them.

Ye Qingwan, who was resting with her eyes closed, pulled the wet towel over her eyes when she heard the bell.

He immediately entered battle mode and charged forward.

She grabbed the phone before everyone else and answered the call.

"Hey!"

"Listen."

On the other end of the phone, the familiar voice that had been changed through a voice changer sounded in a low voice.

"If you don’t want anything to happen to your son, then behave yourself. Don’t even think about finding me. As long as you don’t move, I won’t move. If you dare to act rashly, I’m afraid that I’ll get agitated and accidentally make this child lose some parts."

"No!"

Ye Qingwan screamed excitedly.

"We didn’t move, we didn’t move, we really didn’t move."

Ye Qingwan had no choice but to compromise.

"I’ll do whatever you say. Please don’t hurt my son. He’s just a child!"

Ye Qingwan almost cried again.

"As long as you are obedient, I will ensure that your son will be fine." Correct content is on NovelFire

The other party had victory in his grasp, and his tone was smug and arrogant.

"Can you let me talk to my son on the phone?" Let me hear his voice! I miss him too much! I’ll give you whatever you want. I’ll satisfy your request even if I have to go bankrupt. Really."

"Ah, I’m sorry. The child was too noisy, so I let him sleep first. But don’t worry, he’s fine now. He just refuses to eat and is still hungry."

"How can this be? What did you do to him?"

Ye Qingwan was so excited that she couldn’t control herself. View the correct content at NovelFire.

Gu Shimo was afraid that she would be provoked again, so he snatched the phone from her hand and said into the microphone,

"I’m Zixi’s father. My name is Gu Shimo. You can ask around. I’m the actual controller of the Gu Corporation. Money is definitely not a problem as long as you let my son go. Don’t worry, we won’t call the police."

"I hope you remember what you just said. Just wait patiently. I’ll contact you when I’ve confirmed it."

With that, the call was hung up.

Seeing Gu Shimo put down his phone, Ye Qingwan grabbed his hand. She was so anxious that her heart was about to jump out of her chest.

"What did he say? Would he let Zixi go? What does he want?"

Gu Shimo looked at her with heartache. He pulled her into his arms and comforted her softly,

"Don’t worry. With me around, Zixi will be fine. Compared to Zixi, I’m more worried about you, Wanwan. I hope you take care of yourself. Otherwise, when Zixi sees you like this, won’t he die of guilt and sadness?"

"Yes, Sister Qingwan."

The others also comforted Ye Qingwan.

After a while, Ye Qingwan calmed down.

Gu Shimo asked her to continue leaning against the back of the sofa and close her eyes to rest. He then used a wet towel to cover her eyes.

"Didn’t I see that kind of technology on TV? The kind that could be located by the other party’s mobile phone number."

Leng Xiaoduan asked.

Gu Ziyang, who hadn’t had the chance to speak, said,"

"We can only get the police to do this. Moreover, we need to talk for a long time."

Lu Mingyu pondered for a moment and said,"

"Didn’t you notice that the other party is very vigilant? They were worried that the police would tamper with the phone, so they specially sent the phone that they provided."

"In that case..."

Gu Shimo suddenly had an idea and looked at Lu Mingyu.

Chapter 464: Not Every Mother Loves Her Child

Lu Mingyu seemed to have realized something as well. At the same time, he looked at Gu Shimo.

Gu Shimo put his right finger to his lips and gestured for everyone to keep quiet.

Then, he quickly wrote the words " There is a bug in the phone " on the paper, then raised the paper and passed it around to everyone.

Everyone subconsciously covered their mouths.

No wonder they had been analyzing the name list for half a day, and the other party had immediately called.

He told them not to find a way to find each other.

It seemed that there was really one kidnapper on the list!

He had specially sent his phone over and stopped them from locating him. This meant that the other party was afraid.

"Since we know that Zixi is temporarily safe, the other party has also promised that as long as we don’t move, they won’t hurt Zixi. Then we don’t have to make wild guesses here."

Gu Shimo put away the piece of paper and pretended that nothing had happened.

The time is too late, the time is too late, everyone has worked hard, go back and rest early. When I find Zixi, I’ll treat everyone to a meal."

Since they knew that every word and action here was being monitored by the other party, they did not dare to say anything casually and stood up to leave.

"Then Wanwan, we’ll go back first. Don’t let your imagination run wild. Gu Shimo is here."

Lu Mingyu said.

"Yes, Sister Qing, President Gu will definitely find a way to ensure Zixi’s safety."

"Wanwan, have a good rest. You were too shocked today."

Leng Xiao comforted Ye Qingwan first. When he turned to Gu Shimo, he was not so kind.

"And you, when Wanwan and her son needed you, you weren’t there. I wonder if you have the ability to protect them? If anything happens to Zixi and Wanwan, I’ll hammer you to death!"

Gu Ziyang was dejected." Brother, Wanwan, I can’t help much here, so I’ll go back first. If you need me, remember to contact me!"

Leng Xiao had always been extreme towards Gu Ziyang, so he scoffed when he heard that.""If it were up to me, I would tie Gu Ziyang up and make a video of him being abused. I don’t believe that Zhao Qinlan, that vicious woman, won’t show up!"

Gu Shimo coughed and reminded Leng Xiao not to speak nonsense.

Leng Xiao scratched his head awkwardly." I was just saying." Zhao Qinlan, that heartless person, only had herself in her heart. Why would she care about her son’s life and death? Not every mother was like Wanwan. Right, Gu Ziyang?"

Gu Ziyang glared at him and wanted to lash out at him. However, when he saw Leng Xiaoduan’s troubled look, he had no choice but to hold back. NovelFire.c(o)(m)

"Alright, alright, we should go too."

Lu Mingyu was afraid that Leng Xiao would say something shocking, so he urged him.

"Let Gu Shimo and Wanwan have a good rest. What they’re going through is not something we can imagine. Wanwan, Gu Shimo was right just now. You must take good care of yourself. Otherwise, Gu Shimo will have to divert his attention to take care of you."

"I know, Mingyu bro. Thank you. Thank you for coming."

After everyone had left, Gu Shimo carried Ye Qingwan upstairs to sleep.

He filled the bathtub with water and added some calming and sleep-aiding bath bubbles for Ye Qingwan to soak in to relieve some stress.

In order to prevent her from letting her imagination run wild, he stayed by her side and read the messages of support and encouragement for her under the public account.

She slowly relaxed and almost fell asleep. Gu Shimo’s eyes were sharp and his hands were fast as he held her head.

He carried her out of the bathtub, dried her hair, and dried her hair with a low breeze before carrying her to bed.

He had planned to take a shower, but Ye Qingwan was too insecure at the moment. She kept holding the corner of his shirt with one hand.

Helpless, Gu Shimo could only give up on the idea of washing up. He took her hand from the corner of his shirt and held it tightly in his own hand.

 

Chapter 465: What If He Called?

That night, Gu Shimo held Ye Qingwan in his arms and let her sleep peacefully.

In the middle of the night, Ye Qingwan woke up in shock several times. It was his gentle comfort and warm embrace that calmed her down.

Gu Shimo had not slept for almost the entire night.

When it was almost dawn, Ye Qingwan finally fell into a deep sleep. Only then did he relax and fall asleep.

——

Qingyun Wan’s public account and video account worked together, relying on their own powerful traffic output.

Soon, the news of Qingyun Wan’s young master, Ye Zixi, being kidnapped in Happy Valley spread throughout the entire South City.

Ye Zixi’s photo was also quickly forwarded to various forums and group messages.

In theory, this exposure was not small. As long as Ye Zixi appeared in public, it was very likely that he would be recognized.

Unfortunately, even after mobilizing such a powerful crowd, no one had contacted him to say that they had any clues.

There were a few people who contacted the police and said that they saw someone who looked like Ye Zixi, but the police had verified that it was not Ye Zixi.

Naturally, Xue Yunfei had also seen such a trending news. Correct content is on

When she saw this exciting news, she immediately thought of Zhao Qinlan.

She subconsciously whistled and said,""Beautifully done!

Zhao Qinlan was not a simple woman. She was hiding in the Imperial Capital thousands of miles away.

He had actually found such a capable and reliable person. Not only did he kidnap Ye Zixi quietly, but he also gave the police a tight slap in the face.

In order to confirm her guess, Xue Yunfei immediately booked an early morning flight the next day.

She wanted to go to the capital to meet Zhao Qinlan and get first-hand information.

She felt that this was the best opportunity. Ye Zixi was the best bargaining chip.

She could use Ye Zixi to make a deal with Gu Shimo.

She could help save Ye Zixi as long as Gu Shimo agreed to marry her.

It was best to let Ye Qingwan know about this. Ye Qingwan was eager to save her son, so she would definitely agree to her request.

At the thought that she was about to have Gu Shimo, a rare man in the world, Xue Yunfei’s heart was so happy that it almost filled the Pacific Ocean.

——

What Yu Xin said in front of Ye Qingwan last night made Leng Xiao feel very embarrassed.

In his anger, he locked Yu Xin in the car. Correct content is on NovelFire

When they left the Ye Family villa, Yu Xin didn’t say a word, perhaps because she was tired or something else.

It was good that she could be quiet. Otherwise, Leng Xiao couldn’t guarantee that he wouldn’t just leave her on the road.

After sending Yu Xin home, he stood on the balcony to smoke because he felt irritated.

Yu Xin was already angry in her heart, so when she saw this, she scolded him,

"If you want to smoke, get out. You want Yusheng and I to smoke your second-hand smoke so that we can die early, right?"

Leng Xiao suppressed his anger and replied coldly,

"Yu Xin, are you going crazy again?"

"Am I crazy? Did I hit the nail on the head? It’s said that men have three joys,’getting promoted and getting rich will kill your wife’. Don’t you think so? Otherwise, how could there be so many cases of wife murder in this world?"

Leng Xiao threw the cigarette butt out of the window and sneered.

"Do I still need to kill you? Don’t you realize how stupid you are?"

"What did you say?"

Leng Xiao rolled his eyes at her and did not say anything else. He turned around and slammed the door.

Yu Xin was so angry that she trembled.

——

Ye Qingwan and Gu Shimo had slept until very late last night.

The first thing Ye Qingwan did when she woke up was to look for her phone.

Gu Shimo was awakened by the rustling sound.

Wanwan, what are you looking for?"

"Brother Shi Mo, where’s the phone I brought back yesterday? Didn’t you bring it up? What if they call..."

 

Chapter 466: Listen to Him

Gu Shimo got up and hugged Ye Qingwan from behind.

"My phone is downstairs. I asked Gu Feng to pay attention to any sounds. He will inform me if there is a call."

"It’s already been a night. I’ll call to see if Zixi is okay."

"Wanwan, calm down. I’m here. Believe me, I will definitely bring Zixi back unharmed."

He comforted her and whispered into her ear," Also, there might be a bug in that phone. Therefore, we must be careful with our words."

Ye Qingwan was stunned. When Gu Shimo had discovered this situation last night, he had written down the conclusion on a piece of paper. Ye Qingwan had been resting with her eyes closed and did not know about this.

When Ye Qingwan heard this, she covered her mouth in surprise. She suddenly remembered their discussion last night.

"Then, didn’t the other party hear what we discussed yesterday?"

Gu Shimo nodded slightly and reached out to tidy up the hair that was hanging in front of her eyes.

"Didn’t he call to warn us not to waste our time looking for him?"

Ye Qingwan was worried.

"Then what should we do? He heard everything."

Gu Shimo could only comfort her.

"It’s okay. We only reviewed the process last night and made a list. We didn’t take any actual action." NovelFire

"However, I seriously suspect that the other party is definitely on our list. We can filter them secretly first. As long as we eliminate those who don’t have the motive and ability to commit the crime, the remaining scope will be further narrowed. Then, we can search in a targeted manner. It will be much more efficient."

Ye Qingwan knew that Gu Shimo was also a meticulous and logical person. She was completely desperate and could not calm down and think seriously.

Fortunately, Gu Shimo was by her side. She only needed to believe in him and listen to him.

"I understand, Brother Shi Mo. I’ll listen to you."

" Yes, my Wanwan is so obedient."

Gu Shimo held her face and kissed her eyes, which had not completely subsided.

"Do your eyes still hurt?"

"Much better." Ye Qingwan looked at herself in the mirror and was almost frightened.

"Brother Shi Mo, aren’t you very ugly now?"

Ye Qingwan’s hair was messy, her cheeks were swollen, and her eyes were red and swollen.

At first glance, he thought that she was a female hag who had come from somewhere. Where was the dazzling temperament of the past?

"Although you are a little ugly, no matter what you become, I will still love you. My love for you will not change with time or your appearance."

Gu Shimo pulled her into his arms and rested his chin on top of her head. There was an indescribable pity in his heart.

"Wanwan, in this world, wealth and power are dispensable to me."

"As long as I have you and Zixi, I can build another business empire at any time. I don’t dare to say that I’ll be rich enough to rival a country, but I won’t let you and Zixi suffer any grievances."

"So, even if I have to give up everything I have, as long as you and Zixi can stay by my side, I won’t frown."

"Brother Shi Mo!"

Ye Qingwan hugged him tightly, her nose stinging.

"Me too. Even if I become a beggar on the roadside, as long as you and Zixi are by my side, I’m not afraid of anything. I just want you and Zixi to be fine."

Gu Shimo’s heart also felt soft and warm.

"That’s why you don’t need to be afraid. With me by your side, I’ll definitely bring Zixi back safely. Even if I have to gamble all my wealth, I will do what I say."

——

Leng Xiao went to the shop for the whole night and only returned home to shower and change his clothes at dawn. NovelFire

As soon as he entered, what greeted him was a barrage of mockery from Yu Xin.

 

Chapter 467: Why Were They Quarreling?

"Heh, do you know that you’re back? Those who didn’t know better would think that you had lost your child. Were you so worried that you didn’t sleep the entire night and wandered outside someone else’s house?"

Leng Xiao was still angry about what Yu Xin said at the Ye family last night.

He had been patient for the sake of the child, but he did not expect her to push her luck again and again.

Yesterday, she had used words to drive him away, but now she was making things up out of nothing.

Even a clay man had three points of fire, not to mention Leng Xiao, who was already hot-tempered.

"Listen to what you’re saying? Was this what humans said? Let me ask you, before Zixi went for the autumn outing, she only told you this news. Did you deliberately leak the news?"

Leng Xiao was just angry and deliberately provoked her.

He didn’t expect Yu Xin to have such a big reaction and immediately screamed,

"Leng Xiao, you have to speak with a conscience! I know you don’t like me, and you’re not satisfied with whatever I do. The women outside are all good, but when it’s my turn, I’m not human. You said that I deliberately leaked the news. Do you have evidence? Don’t slander me without evidence!

Everyone says that gossip is terrible. Are you trying to kill me with rumors? This is the result of your consideration last night?"

Yu Xin’s voice was high and sharp. Little Yu Sheng, who was sleeping, suddenly woke up and burst into tears.

Leng Xiao only felt that Yu Xin was very annoying and said with a disgusted expression,"Are you roaring like a lion? The child was scared to tears by you."

Not only did Yu Xin not stop, but because of his expression and tone, she raised her voice even higher,

"Yeah, I’m a lion roaring in the east of the river. Anyway, I’m not a human in your heart! Is the child crying because of me? If you don’t argue with me, will he cry? Why, is the child mine alone? Do I deserve to cook, wash, and take care of your children every day?

Am I your nanny?"

"Yu Xin, get this straight!" Leng Xiao, who was in a fit of anger, did not give in.

"You were the one who insisted on having the child back then! Did I say not to have children yet and wait for a few years to stabilize? You were the one who said that you wanted to give birth, and you even said that I wanted to kill your child! What are you complaining about now?"

"You can’t wait to not give birth to a burden. When the time comes, you’ll be able to do whatever you want, right? Leng Xiao, do you still have a conscience? You have no heart! It has been five years. Even if it was a stone, I would have warmed it up. Your heart is colder and harder than a rock in the North Pole!"

As she said this, Yu Xin felt wronged. She sat on the ground and cried as she scolded. Correct content is on NovelFire.

She loved him so much, insisted on marrying him, gave birth to his child, and worked hard day and night. Even she herself was touched, but he was still indifferent.

In the bedroom, Yu Sheng’s cries grew louder and louder. The mother and son, one inside and one outside, echoed each other and cried loudly.

Leng Xiao only felt extremely frustrated and was too lazy to argue with Yu Xin. He walked into the bedroom to carry Yu Sheng.

She changed Yu Sheng’s diapers and hugged him to coax him, but Yu Sheng still cried non-stop.

Leng Xiao thought that he must be hungry, so he carried him outside to prepare milk powder for Yu Sheng.

Just as she was looking for a milk bottle, the doorbell suddenly rang.

Leng Xiao opened the door and saw Yu Xin’s mother standing at the door.

"Mom, why are you here?"

Mrs. Yu heard crying inside and saw him hugging Yu Sheng, who was crying non-stop. She subconsciously asked,

"Did something happen? Was Yu Xin crying? Did you guys quarrel again?"

Leng Xiao felt awkward and embarrassed. He didn’t say anything and opened the door completely. He invited his mother-in-law into the room.

"Mom, you’re here. Yusheng might be hungry, so I was just about to make him some milk powder."

Upon hearing the commotion at the door, Yu Xin, who was throwing a tantrum on the ground, hurriedly got up and turned around to wipe her tears.

Chapter 468: Becoming Beautiful

Initially, when Yu Xin insisted on marrying Leng Xiao, her parents were actually against it.

Because they could feel Leng Xiao’s coldness. No matter how they looked at him, they couldn’t tell that he loved Yu Xin.

However, Yu Xin insisted on her own way and claimed that she would not marry anyone other than him.

At home, she would also cry, make a fuss, and hang herself.

Yu Xin’s parents were strongly opposed at the beginning, but they were shaken later.

In the end, seeing that she had been gritting her teeth and insisting on marrying Leng Xiao, they had no choice but to agree to this marriage.

At that time, the Yu family’s parents had said harshly,""You chose this path yourself. If you regret it in the future, don’t blame us for not reminding you."

Therefore, in the past few years, although Leng Xiao was neither cold nor warm to Yu Xin.

But when she returned to her parents ’home, Yu Xin never said anything. She didn’t want her parents to use that sentence to ridicule her.

Mrs. Yu knew that she and Leng Xiao often quarreled. Women were more sensitive.

However, Mrs. Yu had never seen her daughter and son-in-law quarrel with her own eyes.

Besides, there were many couples who quarreled in the world. It was fine as long as they quarreled until the end. Correct content is on NovelFire

"What happened? Yu Xin, why are you crying? Did you tell Mom that it wasn’t Leng Xiao who bullied you?"

Mother Yu still doted on her daughter.

Yu Xin always reported the good news but not the bad. She was clearly crying, but when she saw her coming, she secretly wiped her tears away. Mother Yu felt a little indignant.

Yu Xin turned around and pretended to smile as if nothing had happened.

"No, why would Leng Xiao bully me? You know that my stomach hurts every time I come. I can’t even take care of Yusheng when he cries. So, Leng Xiao can only take care of Yusheng himself."

Mrs. Yu looked at her suspiciously and said,"

"Is what you said true?"

She then turned to Leng Xiao, who was preparing the milk powder." Leng Xiao, be honest. Did you bully our Yu Xin?"

Leng Xiao coughed and was about to open his mouth when Yu Xin interrupted,

"Mom, don’t you know him? Three sticks to beat a person who doesn’t give a fart. How can he bully me? If I don’t bully him, it’s not bad. By the way, why are you here all of a sudden?"

"Didn’t you ask me to come?" Mrs. Yu asked.

"Have you forgotten about the last time we came out of the cosmetic hospital? Didn’t you make an appointment with the hospital to get some watery injection or something today? You asked me to help you take care of the child."

Last time, Yu Xin went to the beauty hospital for two injections and was very satisfied with the results.

The beauty consultant who received her struck while the iron was hot. NovelFire

He encouraged her to take advantage of this promotion and buy a few more injections. This had a time limit.

After about half a year, it would be absorbed by the skin and return to its original appearance. It would need to be injected again to maintain its original appearance, but the price would not be so affordable by then.

Moreover, because of the anniversary celebration, there were free top-up activities, such as top-up 20,000 yuan to become a silver member.

An additional 3,000 yuan worth of medical items. Charging 30,000 yuan to become a gold member and getting an additional 7,000 yuan for medical treatment was an unprecedented event.

At that time, Yu Xin was not worried about money because she had received 200,000 yuan.

She felt that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so she listened to the beauty consultant’s advice.

He charged 30,000 yuan to become a gold member and made an appointment to do the next project.

However, because of Ye Zixi’s disappearance and the quarrel between Yu Xin and Leng Xiao, she had forgotten about it.

Leng Xiao had already prepared the milk powder and fed it to Yu Sheng. As soon as Yu Sheng sucked on the pacifer, he stopped crying and only heard the sound of him gulping down milk.

Leng Xiao also happened to hear what Mother Yu and Yu Xin said.

He asked subconsciously," A cosmetic hospital? An injection? Yu Xin, when did you go to that place?"

Although Leng Xiao had never come into contact with this aspect, he knew that the cost of doing these beauty programs was not small.

They didn’t have enough money for Yu Xin to do cosmetic surgery as she pleased.

Before Yu Xin could answer, Mother Yu asked Leng Xiao first,

"You men are really slow. Leng Xiao, haven’t you noticed that Yu Xin has become prettier than before? That injection was really magical. After the injection, he really became a different person immediately."

Chapter 469: Where Did Two Hundred Thousand Come From?

Leng Xiao really did not notice the change in Yu Xin’s expression.

This was because it was only a small adjustment. It was not easy to see the difference between people who were together every day.

However, those who hadn’t seen it for a long time would immediately notice the difference when they saw someone who had made the minor adjustments.

"Yu Xin, when did you secretly go for an injection? Do you know how much money that hospital spends? How can you just toss around money?"

He didn’t expect Yu Xin to spend money without discussing it with him. Leng Xiao couldn’t help but feel a little angry.

Hearing his stern tone when he spoke to her, Mrs. Yu was unhappy and said,

"Leng Xiao, what do you mean? My daughter worked hard to raise the family and give birth to your children. What’s wrong with spending some of your money? If she doesn’t spend it, do you want to keep it for other women to spend?"

He then said," I didn’t touch a single cent of the 200,000 that Yu Xin deposited with me last time. I’ll bring the passbook over next time and return it to you! Otherwise, you will think that Yu Xin is using your money to subsidize her family and quarrel with her again!"

Leng Xiao was slightly stunned." 200,000? Where did 200,000 come from?"

Although he had opened his own computer repair shop, his annual income was only slightly more than 200,000 yuan. More than half of this money was used to pay off the mortgage, and there were other miscellaneous expenses. There was basically no savings. Yu Xin actually had 200,000 yuan in savings, which shocked Leng Xiao greatly.

What he didn’t know was that this sum of money was obtained from Yu Xin’s transaction with that mysterious person. NovelFire

In order to avoid leaking the news, Yu Xin did not explain the situation to anyone, including her mother. Mrs. Yu thought that Leng Xiao had earned this money and asked Yu Xin to keep it.

At that time, she was still thinking that this son-in-law was quite reliable. At least he was a Gu family member.

Mrs. Yu, who didn’t know the inside story, accidentally spilled the beans.

"Yu Xin, when did our family have two hundred thousand yuan in savings?"

Hearing Yu Xin’s mother say that Yu Xin actually had such a sum of money in the bank, Leng Xiao’s heart suddenly became suspicious.

When Mrs. Yu suddenly let out a slip of the tongue, Yu Xin didn’t have time to stop her and didn’t say anything.

Leng Xiao came to ask again. After a short moment of panic, Yu Xin had calmed down and said confidently,

"Why? Do you think I only know how to spend money and not earn money all day? This is all the money I earned from buying financial products."

"You know how to buy financial products?" Leng Xiao was even more confused.

"What kind of financial product is it? What’s the interest rate? Don’t tell me you bought the P2P type?"

"It was introduced by someone in our Bao Ma group, not P2P. I took it out when the deposit period was up, so I got this 200,000 yuan."

"What kind of financial products are they? Can you introduce them to me? I’ll get the others in our shop to buy them too."Leng Xiao asked relentlessly.

Yu Xin avoided the main point and refused to answer directly.

"I’m not feeling well. I’ll go in and lie down for a while."

She then said to Mother Yu," Mom, I’ll contact the hospital and cancel today’s appointment. You can go back first.""

With that, she turned around and went into the bedroom.

Mother Yu observed their expressions and felt that there was something unusual between the two.

She pulled Leng Xiao to the sofa and said softly,

"Leng Xiao, tell me honestly, did you quarrel with Yu Xin?"

Yu Xin had denied it herself just now, so Leng Xiao naturally would not admit this fact.

"It’s nothing, Mom. Every time she came...Those few days of the month were always strange. She would be depressed for a while, then throw a tantrum. After a few sensitive days, she would be fine."

Hearing Leng Xiao’s words, Mrs. Yu felt slightly relieved.

"Leng Xiao, although Yu Xin’s temper isn’t very good, ask yourself, does she love you wholeheartedly and take care of this family wholeheartedly? Otherwise, how could he have saved up 200,000 yuan? Between husband and wife, they should tolerate and support each other."

Leng Xiao could only listen to the teachings of his elders even if he did not agree with them. He could not show any displeasure.

Mrs. Yu had been carefully observing Leng Xiao’s expression.

 

Chapter 470: Checking the accounts

Although Leng Xiao seemed to be listening to her, he kept his head lowered and watched Yu Sheng drink the milk. She didn’t know if he was listening to her.

After some thought, she continued, NovelFire

"Also, Yu Xin saved the money for me to take care of. It’s definitely not that she wants to hide her private money. She usually doesn’t buy things randomly. She only has a backpack when she goes out, and it’s used to store baby supplies. You know that she puts all her energy and thoughts on you and Yusheng, right?"

"Yes."

Leng Xiao did not want to deny this. NovelFire

"I hope you and your wife can discuss things properly. Don’t quarrel so easily. No matter how good your relationship is, it will be destroyed by quarrels."

"I didn’t want to argue with her."

"I know, you don’t talk much, why would you take the initiative to quarrel with her? She was definitely the one who started it. However, no matter what the situation is, please understand and forgive me. A man should be more open-minded and not haggle over every detail with his wife."

"Got it."

"Yes, our son-in-law Leng is the most reasonable."

Seeing that Leng Xiao had always been docile and obedient, she comforted her mother.

"The card that Yu Xin left with me, I should return it to you. "We’re old, and sometimes our memory is bad. We’re also prone to make mistakes. If anything happens to me, if I lose it or get cheated, I won’t be able to explain it to you."

As he spoke, he took out something wrapped in a handkerchief from his pocket. He opened the handkerchief layer by layer and took out a local bank card from South City, handing it to Leng Xiao.

"Also, don’t blame Yu Xin for going to the hospital for a cosmetic injection. Everyone has the heart of beauty. Since he had this condition, what did it matter if he could make himself more beautiful? Besides, women dress up for those who please them. She wants to be beautiful, isn’t it to make you love her more?"

After handing the bank card to Leng Xiao and saying a few more words, Mrs. Yu stood up and left.

Leng Xiao saw her to the door. Mrs. Yu urged him to hurry in and twice reminded him to be nice to Yu Xin.

Of course, Leng Xiao said "okay". After sending his mother-in-law off, he returned to the bedroom and placed Yu Sheng back on the bed.

Yu Xin turned her back to him. He didn’t know if she was asleep or she was deliberately ignoring him.

Leng Xiao did not care if she was really asleep or pretending. After putting Yu Sheng down, he said,

"I have something to do, so I’ll go out first."

After Yu Sheng was put on the bed, he became quiet and obedient after drinking milk.

Furthermore, he saw his mother, Yu Xin, beside him, so he didn’t feel that there was anything wrong with it.

She lay on the bed and kicked her legs happily, babbling something.

Leng Xiao was going to the bank to check the accounts.

He didn’t expect that his family would have 200,000 yuan in savings.

Last time, he had considered asking Leng Xiaoduan to move to another house. He was afraid that Leng Xiaoduan would not have enough money, so he wanted to sponsor him.

When he asked Yu Xin how much money she had, she clearly said that she had less than 80,000 yuan in savings.

In such a short period of time, he had turned 80,000 into 200,000? The return rate of P2P was not that high, right?

Moreover, Yu Xin, who had always been very cautious about money, actually went to the hospital for a cosmetic injection. This was also the second point that puzzled him.

There was only one explanation for a poor man to suddenly make a big deal out of a thousand gold coins, and that was that a windfall had fallen from the sky.

Although their family was considered poor, they weren’t rich enough to spend money like cosmetic injections.

He wanted to check the transaction details directly on the ATM, but he couldn’t find the password after trying it twice.

He didn’t dare to try a third time, afraid that his bank card would be swallowed by the machine.

He also wanted to ask the bank staff to help him type out the account transaction statement, but the bank needed him to provide the ID card of the bank account holder.

He couldn’t ask his mother-in-law for it, could he?

After sitting in the waiting area of the bank lobby for a long time and thinking about it, she finally decided to inform Gu Shimo about this matter.

Normally, he would have resisted talking to Gu Shimo.

However, it was a special period now, so they could only put aside their personal prejudices and choose to cooperate with Gu Shimo.

Gu Shimo was surprised to receive a call from Leng Xiao.

From the start, Leng Xiao’s attitude towards him was that he would not rest until he was dead. Later, although there was less hostility, they were still strangers. The two of them almost never sat down and talked calmly.
