Huo Mian was still searching aimlessly . After an entire morning of looking, she found absolutely nothing .

She crouched down to the ground at the intersection of a busy street, bawling her eyes out .
Qin Chu came up behind her, took off his jacket, and put it over her .
“Qin Chu… if something happens to our daughters, I don’t want to live anymore . ” Huo Mian’s voice was all but gone, hoarse and frail .
“Don’t say that . Nothing will happen to our daughters . Trust me . ”
Qin Chu crouched down and gave her the warm water bottle he brought .
Huo Mian took a little sip…
“Hungry? Let’s go get some food . You can’t do this to yourself,” Qin Chu persuaded carefully .
Not far from them, Huo Yanyan came out of the mall just in time to witness the scene .

She clenched her fists tightly . She knew how terribly Huo Mian must be feeling having lost her children, and she also knew exactly where they were… but… she couldn’t tell her .
She wanted to go up to Qin Chu and Huo Mian to comfort them but suddenly remembered just how perceptive they were .
If she happened to give away some sort of clue unintentionally, or if her face looked unnatural, her mom would be in grave trouble .
Although her mother was a heinous woman, Huo Yanyan didn’t want to lose the only family she had .
With that thought in mind, Huo Yanyan made the tough decision to turn around and leave…
Qin Chu’s phone rang . He looked at the caller ID and rejected the call .
Zhang Manlin gritted her teeth, pacing back and forth in the South Side garden, anxious as could be .
She had been calling Qin Chu the entire morning and was rejected every time .

That’s not right…did I do something wrong? Maybe he discovered something?
Just then, she heard the conversation between two nurses…
“Vice Director has taken a lot of days off recently . She’s not here again today . ”
“Yeah! Vice Director cares so much about her job . It’s really unlike her to miss work . If she’s not here, there’s definitely something important going on . ”
“Maybe she’s pregnant? Didn’t she want another child? She has two daughters but no son . ”
“Don’t know . I’m not sure about the rich and the powerful . One thing I do know, however, is that if Vice Director is pregnant, Zhang Manlin’s done for . Haha, the side chick dream is dead . ”
The two nurses didn’t see the huffing and puffing Zhang Manlin behind them .
After they left, Zhang Manlin was so furious that she dialed Huo Siqian’s number .

“Big Brother Qian . ”
“Yes?”
“Is Huo Mian pregnant?”
“Where did you get this news?” Even Huo Siqian froze .
“Huo Mian took the day off again and I just called Qin Chu but he didn’t pick up . There’s definitely something going on… so I’m asking you . Don’t you have a spy in their home? You’d know if she’s pregnant, right?”
“Oh, I see… don’t worry, she’s not pregnant,” Huo Siqian promised .
“Really?” Zhang Manlin was pleasantly surprised by Huo Siqian’s reply .
“Yes, Caiyue reports to me every day . She hasn’t discovered any signs of pregnancy . ”
“That’s weird, then… if she’s not pregnant, why are they like this today?”
“They lost their kids . Of course they’re worried . ”
“What? Their twins are missing?” Zhang Manlin was surprised .
“Yes . ”
“Holy… when did this happen?”
“Yesterday . ”
“Then, then… do you have their kids?” Zhang Manlin laughed and asked .
