Chapter 1406: Chapter 1400: Going Ho_1 Chapter 1406: Chapter 1400: Going Ho_1 “What? Xue Ling hasn’t returned yet.” As soon as Qin Xue arrived ho, she asked Fang Xiu if Xue Ling had returned, getting an answer that worried her.
“He hasn’t returned.” Fang Xiu responded, shaking her head.
“Where could he have gone then? We’ve been waiting for him for quite so ti now, but he remains missing. We thought he had returned, and now that he’s not here, where should we look for him? Chu Molin, you don’t suppose he’s been snatched and eaten by soone?” Qin Xue grew increasingly anxious. The young man was so handso; if he fell into the wrong hands and was defiled, she could barely bear to think of it.
It wasn’t that Qin Xue was overly cautious, but that there were truly perverse and deviant individuals in the world who preyed on children. She worried that Xue Ling might have fallen into such horrific circumstances.
But if that was the case, why didn’t he communicate with her through their shared consciousness? She would imdiately know if he tried to reach out to her.
“Xue’er, don’t overthink it, he’ll be fine. Perhaps he just went sowhere to play and lost track of ti because he was having fun.” Chu Molin comforted his wife, but he didn’t entirely believe his own words. Xue Ling was not a typical child, how could he do such a thing? Perhaps sothing truly did happen.
“Let’s go back inside for now. Standing here isn’t going to help.” Qin Xue internally knew how unreliable Chu Molin’s words were, but what else could she do? Things had co to such a point, she would have to try reaching out to Xue Ling through their shared consciousness to see if she could get in touch with him.
“Fang Xiu, can you watch the children for a bit? I’m going to cook.” Qin Xue didn’t say she would reach out to Xue Ling right away—she would wait and see. Perhaps he would return soon.
“Okay.” Fang Xiu nodded. She had planned to cook anyway—she had even prepared the rice—but now that Qin Xue wanted to cook, she would let her.
“Xue Ling, Xue Ling,” Qin Xue murmured, as she cooked in the kitchen, trying to reach out to Xue Ling with her thoughts. She didn’t know what was going on; there was no response from him.
Qin Xue felt exasperated. What was this, he couldn’t just forget about ho while he was at play. How could he be so neglectful!
When Qin Xue and the others finished eating, there was still no news of Xue Ling. Now, Qin Xue couldn’t hide her worry. Xue Ling must have encountered so accident, otherwise, he wouldn’t behave so out of character.
“Chu Molin, I have to go out and look for Xue Ling.” Qin Xue couldn’t sit still at ho.
“I’ll go. You should stay and watch the children.” Chu Molin was also worried about Xue Ling. Although Xue Ling wasn’t human, he had been living with them in human form for so long that Chu Molin cared about him deeply.
“You know that I have a way to contact Xue Ling. But there’s no response from him now. I think he either passed out, or he’s… dead.” Qin Xue was reluctant to think about it, but Xue Ling had told her that if he died, it wouldn’t affect her. However, if she were to die, then Xue Ling wouldn’t be able to survive either. Hence, she could only assu that Xue Ling was not in a good situation.
“You both should go, I will stay and watch the kids.” Fang Xiu was worried about Xue Ling as well, but she couldn’t go out to look for him. Thus, she pulled Qin Xue’s sleeve, indicating that the couple should go out together to search for him.
“Okay, then can you please watch the kids. Thank you.” Qin Xue did not say no. It was an ergency, so Fang Xiu would have to put in a bit of extra effort.
“No worries, the children are well-behaved, and I can handle them.” Fang Xiu shook her head. She was at ho, not going out, so it wasn’t troubleso for her at all. From her perspective, she was the one who had always been troubling them.
