“Mian, I’m sorry… I… I wasn’t being careful enough,” Mr . Qin cried .
When Huo Siyi took the twins last time, Huo Mian almost lost her mind . Now that it was happening for the second time, she couldn’t possibly handle it anymore .
“Honey, stay strong, our daughters will be okay . They’re so smart, even if they are in a dangerous situation, they’d be able to protect themselves . Don’t be so hard on yourself; you want to make sure you’re okay when they return, right?” Qin Chu couldn’t care less if Huo Siqian was still spying on them . He hugged Huo Mian by the waist and comforted her softly .
But little did he know, she could barely hear a thing as her mind drifted miles away .
– Huo Corporation HQ –
“That bitch… finally made a move . ”
“Boss, should we help rescue the girls? Perhaps, Miss Huo will appreciate your help,” Ah-Cheng suggested .
“No, Mian won’t thank me at all . In a situation like this, there’s nothing I can do . It’s better to silently observe . ”
“But… what if they kill the twins?” Ah-Cheng asked anxiously .
“Not yet . She won’t simply kill the twins after spending so much effort to abduct them . She wants revenge,” Huo Siqian explained calmly .
It was no surprise to him that the twins were abducted . In fact, he knew it was going to happen because he always had one important lead, a lead that Huo Mian and Qin Chu had both missed .
“Boss, when they finish with Qin Chu and Miss Huo, they will come for you too,”
“She won’t live till then . No need for us to take action, we’ll watch the dogs fight . When the shepherds fight, the wolf has a winning game . Ah-Cheng, you need to read more . ”
“Wise you are, Boss,” Ah-Cheng stopped talking after understanding Huo Siqian’s thoughts .
Huo Mian, Qin Chu, and everyone else spent the whole day looking up and down the street the twins were last seen . However, lady luck was not on their side .
By the time evening had arrived, no one spoke a word about the flight to the U . S .
Eventually, Qin Ning and Tang Chuan went to meet their friends, to see if there might be additional leads .
Qin Chu and Huo Mian went home, only to be stopped by Mrs . Qin . “Oh, you guys are back . Where are the kids?”
Upon hearing the word ‘kids’, Huo Mian’s heart sank even deeper, to which she didn’t even know it was possible .
“They went to a sleepover at the in-laws . They won’t be coming back tonight . ”
“That doesn’t sound right . I thought they were coming to the U . S with us at ten tonight . The two kiddos wanted snacks, so I went out and bought a bunch for the flight . ” Mrs . Qin pointed happily at the bags of snacks .
“Mom, we’re not going to the U . S anymore for now . There’s been a change of plans . Once I get things sorted out, you guys can go back,” said Qin Chu .
“Oh . Why didn’t you say so earlier? I bought all this for nothing . Since we’re not going anymore, let’s eat first . ”
“Mom, I don’t feel too well, you guys eat . ” Pale-faced, Huo Mian walked upstairs, and Qin Chu followed .
“Honey, do you want some congee?”
“No, I’m going to go lie down a bit in the reading room . ” Mr . Qin could barely hide the sadness on his face .
“Weird . Why’s everyone so down today?” Mrs . Qin couldn’t have imagined that the twins went missing, and therefore, she didn’t even stretch her thoughts toward that direction .
– Some high-end party room –
By the time Tang Chuan and Qin Ning walked in, Su Yu and Wei Liao had already arrived . In fact, they had already finished a bottle of drink .
“Huh? Why are you here? Shouldn’t you be at the airport?” Wei Liao glanced at his watch and smiled .
“Can’t go anymore . Shit just hit the fan,” Tang Chuan said in a serious tone .
“What happened? Why so serious?” Wei Liao continued to joke .
“The twins are missing,” Tang Chuan said, and Su Yu immediately jumped up from the sofa .
