Chapter 295 - 295 Missing
295 Missing
Old Master Ji told Ji Lingchen everything that had happened that year.
Fang Xiaonuan, however, was confused. She asked doubtfully, “Dad, since the kidnappers had already kidnapped my husband and Xiaoyu, why would they have killed Xiaoyu and let my husband go? If I were the kidnapper, I would have released both of them or killed them both since I’d already kidnapped two people. Why would I kill one and let the other go?”
Old Master Ji was also very puzzled.
“And that forensic doctor,” Fang Xiaonuan continued, “Logically speaking, the doctor’s test report can’t be wrong. The child who died was obviously not your biological daughter, so why did the results say she was?”
!!
“Tomorrow, investigate the forensic doctor who examined your sister,” Old Master Ji told his eldest son.
If Fang Xiaonuan noticed this, her husband would, of course, pick up on it as well.
Fang Xiaonuan continued, “By the way, dad, there’s another key question. Xiaoyu is clearly still alive. How did the fake ‘Xiaoyu’ you met back then manage to become someone who is so similar to Xiaoyu in terms of height, build, and clothing?” When she finished speaking, she was shocked by the direction of her own thoughts. Was this orchestrated by someone close to them?
“Lingchen,” Old Master Ji said, “Come with me to see the Lin family tomorrow. There are some old scores that we should settle with them!”
The Lin family? Fang Xiaonuan looked at her husband. Before she could ask him if Old Master Ji meant Lin Rou’s family, Ji Lingchen nodded, confirming her suspicions.
“I’ll go with you guys,” Fang Xiaonuan said. She wanted to be present if they were meeting a girl who fancied her husband.
At this moment, her phone suddenly rang. It was an unknown number, so she answered it. “Hello, who’s this?”
“Xiaonuan, did Xiaoyu go to your place?” It was Liu Siyan on the phone.
“Liu Siyan, what happened to Xiaoyu?”
“Xiaoyu is missing,” Liu Siyan said nervously.
Liu Siyu had coaxed her mother into her room and given her a tranquilizer. After she fell asleep, she disappeared from the house and turned off her phone.
Fang Xiaonuan immediately jumped up from the sofa. “How long has she been missing?”
The Ji family’s father and sons looked at Fang Xiaonuan at the same time.
Ji Lingchen also stood up, “Xiaonuan…”
Fang Xiaonuan interrupted her husband and continued to listen to the call. “Hello… I understand. I’ll go out with my family to look for Xiaoyu immediately. Brother Liu, don’t worry too much. Xiaoyu is very smart. She won’t go to dangerous places. She probably just can’t accept her identity at the moment and doesn’t know what to do. She needs some time to think about it.”
Fang Xiaonuan suppressed the anxiety she felt. She forced herself to calm down and comfort the anxious Liu family members. This was not the time to be flustered or let their thoughts run wild. That would not help them find Xiaoyu.
“Let’s keep in touch.” After Fang Xiaonuan hung up, she said to the three of them, “Xiaoyu is missing. Dad, Brother, hubby, don’t worry. Xiaoyu didn’t run away from home or do anything dangerous. She just needs some time to calm down.”
“On the way out of our house today, Brother Liu told her about her past. Actually, Xiaoyu started to remember something after she fell into the pool. She came here today to verify her memories.”
Old Master Ji recalled how his daughter had looked at him with tears in her eyes, but had said that she had rhinitis and that dust had gotten into her eyes.
“Kangde, contact Chief Qiu immediately and look for Xiaoyu. Lingchen, mobilize all of the Ji family’s people and have them split up to search.” Old Master Ji turned to his daughter-in-law. “Xiaonuan, we can give Xiaoyu some time alone, but it’s too late now. It’s not safe for her to be outside alone.”
Fang Xiaonuan could understand how Old Master Ji felt. She wanted to help her family look for her too. “I’ll look for her with Xiaowen. Dad, don’t go out. It’s too hectic outside.”
“No! This time, I must find my daughter!” Old Master Ji refused without hesitation.
Fang Xiaonuan did not stop Old Master Ji. She was just as worried as the Ji family and Liu family. Liu Siyu had been her good friend for many years, like a real sister. When she said that she was not worried, she was only comforting others and herself at the same time. In fact, she was more anxious than anyone else.
Fang Xiaonuan ran to Ji Wen’s room and pulled him out. He had been lying down and playing with his phone. “Xiaoyu is missing. Let’s go find her.”
“What happened to her?” Ji Wen still did not realize the seriousness of the matter and was still playing with his phone.
Fang Xiaonuan smacked the back of his head. “Liu Siyu is your aunt. She’s missing!”
“What?” Ji Wen threw his phone on the bed and looked at Fang Xiaonuan in confusion.
