“Mingxi… why are you suddenly… asking about that?” Huo Yanyan forced a smile at Shen Mingxi .
“Oh, nothing, I just suddenly thought of it . ”
“My mother hasn’t been back to the country for a very long time . Now that she’s finally back, it makes sense that she’s visiting all of her relatives . Also, I don’t know what would happen if Huo Siqian found out about her return… so, I told her to stay longer at the village . ” Huo Yanyan came up with the perfect excuse .
“Oh, I see…” Shen Mingxi nodded, saying nothing more .
After dinner, Huo Yanyan sat down with Tiantian to read her a fairytale . Shen Mingxi put on his jacket and headed out .
“You’re going out?”
“Yeah, I’m meeting a couple of friends to discuss some business . ”
“Okay . Don’t drink too much and come home early . ” Huo Yanyan was gentle as always .
It was a quality not possessed by Wei Ying, so Shen Mingxi had always felt happy with Huo Yanyan .
He even thought that what he had with Huo Yanyan was true love .
When he arrived downstairs, Shen Mingxi didn’t look too well and unlocked his car .
He got into his new silver BMW and zoomed off .
When Su Yu received Shen Mingxi’s call, he had already gotten back to his private mansion .
He hadn’t yet told his grandpa about the twins yet; his family would worry themselves to death .
Su Yu was also beside himself, his mouth filled with blisters too painful for him to eat .
He walked to the fridge, opened it, took out an ice-cold can of coke, and downed two large gulps .
Just then, his phone rang .
It was an unfamiliar phone number . After some thought, Su Yu picked up the phone .
“Hello?”
“Su Yu, it’s me, Mingxi . ”
Su Yu remained silent…
Last time, when he and Shen Mingxi fought, he blocked the latter both on social media and on his phone, resolute as could be .
Later on, Shen Mingxi regretted his words and tried to make up with Su Yu through a couple of their rich friends, all to no avail .
He had even gone as far as begging Tang Chuan, but the latter didn’t even give him the time of day .
First, it was because of the rivalry between the Wei and Shen families that had Wei Liao and Shen Mingxi hating each other .
Next, it was Su Yu and Shen Mingxi’s fight . That made Tang Chuan even less willing to see him .
Now, Shen Mingxi was calling Su Yu from a new number . He was really trying his best to make amends; he was at Su Yu’s feet .
Su Yu thought that he was still calling to apologize for what happened last time .
“What?” Su Yu was very frustrated . He hadn’t slept ever since the disappearance of the twins .
Their angelic faces would pop into this head every time he closed his eyes, circling him and screaming his name; the thought of the girls gutted him .
“Su Yu, I want to meet with you . ”
“I have nothing to say to you . I’m very busy . I’m hanging up . ” Su Yu was just about to hang up the phone .
“Wait, Su Yu, I have something really important to tell you . It’s about the twins . ” Shen Mingxi blurted out .
“What did you say?” The mention of the twins immediately caught Su Yu’s attention .
“The twins are missing, right? I think… I might know where they are . ” Shen Mingxi spoke slowly .
“Where are you? I’ll come to meet you,” Su Yu asked immediately .
“No, I’ll come to you . I’m already on the way . ”
“Then come to my house . Hurry!”
“Alright, I’ll be there in a little over 10 minutes . ”
Shen Mingxi let out a breath of relief hearing that Su Yu was willing to see him .
After 18 minutes, Shen Mingxi’s car arrived before Su Yu’s private mansion .
“Su Yu . ” He nodded as a greeting .
“Where are the kids?” Su Yu asked directly, was losing his mind .
