Shuangshuang’s eyes widened, and then she quickly covered her little face.
Su Xiaong shook her head,
"Shuang’er, playing gas with Dad at that hour, Dad has to work in the morning, it will make him very tired, you know?"
As Shuangshuang’s chubby fingers parted, they revealed her elf-like dark eyes, sparkling with light. She pouted,
"Mom, when is Dad coming back? I miss him so much it hurts all over..."
The little girl stretched out her arms, hugged Su Xiaong’s neck, and looked all aggrieved.
Su Xiaong tilted her head, kissed Shuangshuang’s mouth,
"Very soon."
"How soon is very soon?"
"Very soon is very soon!"
This was said by Prince Huang, who had been silent for a long ti and was annoyed by his sister.
Having not seen Dad for a long ti, Prince Huang also felt very vexed inside.
"Why are you being an..."
Shuangshuang pouted again, muttering.
Su Xiaong chuckled lightly and told the two little ones to go out to eat.
The bedroom was empty.
Xiao ng looked at the pair of Winnie the Pooh on the bedside table... unconsciously reached out and took them.
The Winnie the Pooh were already a bit old, but fortunately, the quality was good, so even after always putting them there, they didn’t have any damaged parts.
The deep love between husband and wife seed to be such that no matter how much ti passed, when he wasn’t there, she would habitually miss him, habitually look forward to him.
Su Xiaong knew he was lying to her.
Her big eyes sank as the Winnie the Pooh were placed back in their original position, and Su Xiaong picked up the phone and dialed Yin Shixiu’s number again!
——The phone was off.
Su Xiaong’s heart tightened.
She imdiately called the Yin Family’s main residence, and it was Ah Su who answered.
Ah Su handed the phone to Zhou ngqin.
"Mom, it’s Xiaong, has my dad... encountered any trouble?"
Zhou ngqin initially didn’t react, thinking Su Xiaong was referring to Yin Shaohui’s dad, and said,
"He’s just a little sick. He was upset by your big brother before—"
"I’m talking about my dad, Su Chengji."
"...."
Zhou ngqin was stunned for a mont, then instinctively asked,
"What happened?"
Su Xiaong pressed her lips together, sat at the edge of the bed, clenched her fists slightly, took a breath, and said to Zhou ngqin,
"Mom, what I’m about to say is just my speculation, you need to stay calm."
If there were other possibilities, Su Xiaong didn’t want to tell Old Madam Yin. After all, she was getting on in years.
But now, even she couldn’t remain calm, especially since she was in London, so far away from Beijing...
"Go ahead."
Zhou ngqin steadied her mind.
"My dad... might be in trouble. Shixiu may be hiding sothing dangerous from us."
"...How so?"
Su Xiaong told her mother everything: how she couldn’t reach Su Chengji the whole night and all the inconsistencies in Yin Shixiu’s words when she called him just now.
"No matter how bumpy the road is, the car he was in couldn’t make those swaying sounds, and from the Yin Building to Zhongguan Village, the road is clear, how could there be any bumps?"
"He said he drank with my dad last night, but actually last night, Shuangshuang played gas with him before bed; he thought I didn’t know."
"Also... when I talked to him on the phone, he was on speaker. The car wasn’t driven by him, so why use speakerphone?"
"There was soone else in his car."
"His phone is unreachable now."
Zhou ngqin was taken aback by what Su Xiaong said. However, she thought that basing this just on a phone call was too much speculation.
"Xiaong, are you perhaps too tense lately, overthinking things?"
"Shi Shengde has escaped from prison."
This one sentence brought Zhou ngqin to full realization.
Su Xiaong clenched her fists, her eyes even filled with tears,
"Mom, I’m really scared..."
"..."
"I will contact Chen Lan. I’m telling you because I want you and Dad to discuss this. In Beijing, you have vast connections."
"If my dad truly is in trouble, Shixiu... would go to great lengths."
"..."
"I’ll contact you again later. I hope these are just my speculations, but it’s a critical ti now, I can’t help but worry like this."
"Alright, Mom understands."
After Su Xiaong hung up, she imdiately called Chen Lan.
Chen Lan was sitting in the CEO’s office, trying to call Bai Sidong while waiting for Bai Sidong’s call.
When Su Xiaong’s call ca in, he was montarily dazed. After adjusting his emotions, he answered,
"Madam?"
"Have the police been notified?"
"Ah? What?"
Chen Lan’s head went blank, he hurriedly asked.
"Stop playing dumb with ! My dad is in trouble! I already know!"
Su Xiaong scolded sternly.
The sternness in her voice made Chen Lan feel like the entire room was spinning!
