Tiantian’s white dress was filthy and covered with mud. Her face was dirty and it looked like she had been through a lot.
When she saw Shen Mingxi, she immediately threw herself into his arms and started crying, “Uncle Shen… wa…”
“Tiantian, calm down. What happened? Tell me what happened and how you came here? Where’s your mommy?”
It was already very late and Tiantian came alone, so Shen Mingxi knew that something had happened.
“Uncle Shen, please hurry and save Mommy… She’s going to be killed by bad guys…” Tiantian cried as she said because she was very anxious.
“Calm down, Tiantian, tell me slowly…”
Shen Mingxi picked Tiantian up and sat her onto the bed. Then he picked up a towel and wet it to wipe her face slowly.
“Are you hungry?” Shen Mingxi knew that she was scared to death.
“No.”
“Drink some water first.”
Shen Mingxi poured a glass of warm water and Tiantian drank it all in one go because she was very thirsty.
“Are you still thirsty?” Shen Mingxi asked gently.
“Can you please pour me a little bit more, Uncle Shen?” Tiantian’s voice was still shaking.
Shen Mingxi poured her a little bit more water. He was scared she would choke herself so he gently patted her back.
Tiantian slowly calmed down after drinking the glass of water.
“Oh, Uncle Shen, this is for you…”
She finally recalled what happened as she did not forget what Ah-Cheng gave her.
“What is this?”
“I don’t know.” She shook her head.
“Who gave this to you?” Shen Mingxi asked.
“A person with the big bad guys but he’s not a bad guy. He’s a good guy. The big bad guy told him to throw me into the sea but he let me go…” Tiantian said unclearly.
Shen Mingxi was also very confused by the story.
“Okay, let me see.”
Shen Mingxi picked up the thing in Tiantian’s hand and realized it was a micro recorder.
He pressed play and he heard a crisp male voice. “Huo Siqian used Huo Yanyan to frame Qin Chu. Huo Siqian ordered me to kill the child but I couldn’t do it so please hide her. If she’s seen alive, I’ll be in deep trouble.”
Shen Mingxi immediately understood what he meant from this concise message.
“Uncle Shen, Mommy and I were captured by the bad guys. Our hands and feet were tied and they taped our mouths. That bad guy fed Mommy some drug… He wanted to kill me… I’m scared… I hope you can save Mommy…” Tiantian begged in a sobbing, quiet voice.
Tiantian pulled Shen Mingxi’s sleeve with her chubby hand.
Shen Mingxi felt his heartache when he heard this.
Although he swore he wouldn’t deal with anything related to Huo Yanyan ever again, he had a soft heart and did not bear to watch them suffer like this.
“Okay, I will help your mommy so Tiantian, you don’t need to worry.”
“Mhm! I knew Uncle Shen cares the most about us,” the little girl finally said with a bright smile on her face.
Shen Mingxi had someone buy food for Tiantian. Then he decided to have Tiantian to stay in the hospital with him to prevent Huo Siqian from finding out.
Tiantian was shaken to her core from the incidents and was always feeling sleepy but didn’t want to go to sleep. Shen Mingxi had to fort her. She finally fell asleep and he changed into casual clothing. He opened the door and outside, his bodyguard said, “Young Master, are you going out?”
“Yes.”
“But Madam said you can’t leave. You need to rest.” The two bodyguards were in a tough situation too.
“I have something urgent I need to deal with. I’ll e back very soon. You don’t need to tell my mother.”
Then, he pushed away the bodyguards. He went straight to the Municipal Public Security Bureau…
He greeted Gao Ran and went to the interrogation room to see Huo Yanyan.
She still seemed mentally unstable.
“We still can’t tell yet whether she’s faking it or not. You can go see for yourself,” Gao Ran said.
