It was unbelievable. She quickly found a neighbor nearby and asked, “Auntie… Where’s the family?”
The plump auntie glanced at Little Qi and quickly shook her head and sighed. “A few days ago, a few men came. They stabbed Xiao Hong and burned down the house. It burned for a day and a night before it stopped. I wonder if Old Lady He has also turned into ashes.”
“Then have you seen He Yanzhi?”
The neighbor shook her head. “I saw him the day before yesterday. It was very rushed. I haven’t seen him since.”
Little Qi was stunned, shocked to her core. At this moment, her emotions were extremely plicated.
She felt like she would never see He Yanzhi again, and yet she felt that He Yanzhi would definitely contact her again. However, it was not safe now.
Little Qi squatted and dialed He Yanzhi’s number again and again. However, the operator kept reminding her that the number she dialed was no longer in service.
She remained there for half a day until it was late at night when Cheng Hui drove over to pick her up.
“Miss, Let’s go home.”
Little Qi looked up in a sorry state and asked Cheng Hui, “Did you… already know?”
“I only got the news early this morning,” Cheng Hui answered Little Qi seriously. “Miss, it’s the gang’s revenge. He Yanzhi’s whereabouts are unknown now. Master Xiao has already sent people to look for him, but there’s no sign of him.”
“During this period of time, he hasn’t provoked anyone from the gang…”
“Only that kid himself knows the answer.” Cheng Hui helped Little Qi up. “If you don’t want Madam to worry, then e back with me.”
Little Qi really wanted to stay there and wait because she had a strong feeling that she might never see He Yanzhi again. She really wanted to know what kind of situation he was in right now.
Also, was Grandma He okay?
But she also knew that if she stayed there, she would only make her family worried.
“Uncle Hui, I rarely beg you, but this time I’m begging you. Please do your best to get information about Grandma He for me. I want to know if she is safe. This is the only family He Yanzhi has in this world. If Grandma He is gone, I don’t know how he will live.”
Cheng Hui looked into Little Qi’s eyes and nodded solemnly. “Miss, don’t worry. Even if you don’t tell me, Master Xiao will.”
Little Qi did not say anything else and walked straight to the car.
However, before she left, she looked at the ruins once more.
She did not know why, but she felt that once she left, the string in her heart would be broken.
..
After returning to Jianchuan, for three days in a row, Little Qi did not go to school. She searched the streets and alleys of Jianchuan for He Yanzhi, but there was no news of him.
He had disappeared very cleanly off the Earth, as if he had never existed. If she did not still have the bracelet on her wrist, Little Qi would really think that she was having a romantic dream.
Three days later, someone delivered a motorcycle to her house. Little Qi knew the brand. She had been there with He Yanzhi before.
Therefore, when she saw the owner of the car, she grabbed his arm and asked, “Boss, where is the person who bought this from you?”
“Little girl, Young Master He had already paid for this car when you first came to the shop. He told me to deliver it directly to your house when I had the goods. I don’t know where he is now,” the owner explained. “He didn’t answer my calls, but I still sent it here directly.”
Looking at the brand-new motorcycle, Little Qi’s heart was racing wildly. She slowly squatted and muttered to herself, “I don’t want you to show up. I just want to know if you are alive.”
