The sumr evening arrived uninvited.
Mo Chuxi, in a cheerful mood, returned to the apartnt early.
He opened the door and stepped inside, but the relaxed smile on his handso face gradually froze.
The vast, silent emptiness of the room imdiately made him uneasy.
At this ti, Yan Xinxin should have already brought the two little ones ho. She should be in the kitchen cooking, while the two children should be playing in the living room.
But at this mont.
None of that was happening...
Mo Chuxi picked up his phone and imdiately dialed Yan Xinxin’s number. The chanical female voice on the other end of the line made his heartbeat grow even more restless.
The phone was actually turned off!
He tried to activate the GPRS tracking system but found that it couldn’t locate her at all!
Though he had secretly linked Yan Xinxin’s phone to the tracking system, it was useless once the phone was powered off.
He had planned to install a tracking chip in her phone earlier but hadn’t yet found the opportunity to do so.
Sothing had happened.
Mo Chuxi instantly made this judgnt.
He didn’t hesitate and imdiately turned around to leave.
☆
Darkness, heaviness.
Yan Xinxin drowsily stirred, her eyelids twitching, accompanied by a throbbing headache.
She hazily opened her eyes and was greeted by an unfamiliar darkness and a foul odor.
Where was this?
Yan Xinxin struggled to sit up. As she moved, aided by a sliver of cold moonlight, she noticed the two little ones lying unconscious beside her.
"Xi! Chenxi!"
She instantly woke up completely and nervously pulled the two children closer to her.
"Xi! Chenxi! Wake up!"
Yan Xinxin called out in panic, gently patting their faces.
"Wake up! Please wake..."
"Xinxin..."
Little Yan Chenxi opened his weary eyes with difficulty.
"Xi!"
Seeing her son awake, Yan Xinxin’s eyes instantly brimd with tears. She bent down abruptly and hugged his small body tightly.
"Sweetheart, you scared Mommy to death!"
She wiped the corners of her eyes before turning back to wake Chenxi again. However, Chenxi seed to be in deep sleep and remained unresponsive no matter how much she called his na.
Yan Xinxin forced herself to reign in her panic and anxiety as she stood up to survey their surroundings.
It was an extrely dilapidated wooden cabin, cluttered with miscellaneous items, filled with an unpleasant sll.
Looking outside through the sealed windows, it was already dark.
"Xinxin, where are we? Why are we here? Weren’t we going to find Daddy?"
Hearing the little one’s voice, Yan Xinxin turned back.
"Xi, don’t be scared. Xinxin will definitely get you both back to Daddy."
She spoke while searching in the darkness for her bag, though she didn’t hold out much hope.
Sure enough, the phone wasn’t lost, but it wouldn’t turn on at all.
She had gotten into a suspicious car—the man claid to take them to Mo Manor but had used sothing odorless and tasteless to knock them unconscious before bringing them to this cabin.
It was clearly a deliberate sabotage.
Yan Xinxin walked to the door and tried opening it, but it didn’t budge.
The windows were also sealed shut with crisscrossed wooden planks.
She could rule out Lin Yuan’ai as the culprit. That woman disliked her but genuinely liked Xi, so she wouldn’t harm the child.
Tomorrow night was the jewelry exhibition banquet. Perhaps soone didn’t want her to attend.
The night grew deeper.
Mo Chuxi, driven by anxiety, moved from the kindergarten to the police station before finally driving into the Mu family estate.
The butler dared not stop Mo Chuxi and didn’t have ti to report his arrival, following him all the way into the dining room.
The family, who were in the middle of dinner, looked shocked to see Mo Chuxi barging in.
Mo Chuxi’s piercing gaze instantly locked on Mu Qianshui’s face.
"Speak. Where is Xinxin?"
