Shen Qianqian was trembling so hard that her hands and feet curled up. She looked at He Yijia helplessly with tears in her eyes. "Yijia, what should I do? I can't find him anywhere."
"Qianqian, don't worry. Xiao Kong is so smart. He won't go missing." He Yijia held Shen Qianqian's hand tightly and comforted her. "Think about it carefully. Where could Xiao Kong be now?"
"Xiao Yuan's house. Could he be at Xiao Yuan's house?" Shen Qianqian seemed to be awakened by his words. She immediately took out her mobile phone with trembling hands.
Shen Qianqian asked expectantly, "Boss Hu, has Xiao Kong contacted you?"
"No?" Hu Shuli was beside Xiao Yuan, watching him learn the piano. Hearing this, she immediately walked to the side and asked, "What happened to Xiao Kong?"
"Xiao Kong is missing." Shen Qianqian was obviously crying, which stunned her. She asked in disbelief, "How could it be? Didn't he just …"
"I don't know either..." Shen Qianqian choked on her sobs as she rubbed her hands together. She was at a loss as to what to do. "If Xiao Kong really went, you have to let me know, Chief Hu."
"Of course, of course." Hu Shuli frowned and said, "But what if Xiao Kong didn't come here?"
"…" Shen Qianqian was speechless. The anxiety in her eyes was heartbreaking. "I don't know."
"Qianqian, do you think Xiao Kong will go to Gu Hecheng?" Hu Shuli was a little worried. "If he goes to Gu Hecheng, it's not convenient for you to show up. Let me ask him for you."
"Okay." It was a simple word, but it was very difficult for Shen Qianqian to say it.
After the call ended, Shen Qianqian felt her legs go weak. She supported He Yijia and slowly sat down.
He Yijia asked in confusion, "Qianqian, what's wrong with you?"
After Shen Qianqian tried her best to calm down, she said to He Yijia, "I can't figure out where Xiao Kong will go. Whether he's going to Xiao Yuan's house or somewhere else, we won't be able to see him for a while …"
"… Let's wait for a while." Perhaps it was because Hu Shuli had mentioned Gu Hecheng that made her shiver, as if she had suddenly woken up.
Now that things were like this, she couldn't panic.
If he made a mistake in his haste and exposed Xiao Kong, he might really lose Xiao Kong.
"Qianqian, what are you thinking about?" He Yijia looked at her with a frown.
Shen Qianqian bit her lips, which were pale because of her nervousness. She looked up and said to He Yijia in a trembling voice, "I'm afraid that Xiao Kong will go to Gu Hecheng."
"Go to Gu Hecheng?" He Yijia couldn't believe this idea. After all, it was too dangerous.
"Yeah." Shen Qianqian nodded. She finally started to regret. Perhaps she shouldn't have gotten angry because of what happened yesterday. This made Xiao Kong even more suspicious.
If Xiao Kong really confronted Gu Hecheng and said something, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"This won't do. I'll go look for him," He Yijia said, then put his hand on her shoulder and comforted her, "Wait here. I'll go."
"No, you can't go," Shen Qianqian, who was sitting on the stone steps, suddenly reached out and grabbed He Yijia, who was about to turn around and leave.
"Yijia, have you lost your mind too?" Shen Qianqian looked up. Her panicked eyes were filled with determination. "What's the difference between you and me going? Either way, Gu Hecheng will be suspicious."
"That's right." He Jia reacted and slapped her forehead in annoyance.
When he heard that Xiao Kong might go to look for Gu Hecheng, he thought that Gu Hecheng might really pester Shen Qianqian again. He completely lost his ability to think.
"What should we do now?" He Yijia asked anxiously.
"Yijia, calm down. Xiao Yuan's mother said that she would help me ask around." Shen Qianqian held He Yijia's hand and said, "Xiao Kong ran into Gu Hecheng yesterday. Xiao Yuan's mother went to pick him up and said that he was her relative. Today, Xiao Yuan's mother will come forward. This way, Gu Hecheng won't be suspicious."
"Okay." He Yijia held Shen Qianqian's hand tightly and did not say anything else.
The two of them stayed downstairs for a while. He Yijia helped Shen Qianqian upstairs.
After pushing the door open and entering, Shen Qianqian sat down on the sofa as if her legs had given way.
He Yijia looked at her pale face and frowned. He could not help but ask, "Qianqian, what's wrong?"
He Yijia held Shen Qianqian's hand, only to find that her hand was covered in cold sweat. He looked at her worriedly.
"I'm fine. I'm just worried …" Shen Qianqian looked at He Yijia hesitantly. "I'm worried that if Xiao Kong really asks Gu Hecheng something, we won't be able to hide it anymore."
"It won't happen, it won't happen." Although He Jia was also worried and scared, she could only hug Shen Qianqian and comfort her.
On the wide road, a taxi was speeding along as usual.
There was only a child sitting in the back seat of the car. The child looked out of the window with a determined gaze, as if he was determined to find out the truth.
It turned out that Xiao Kong happened to see a taxi after he came out of his house. He waved his hand and got into the taxi without thinking.
The taxi driver asked worriedly, "Kid, where's your mother?"
Xiao Kong pursed his lips and smiled. "Uncle, I'm going to find my mother. My mother asked me to tell you the address so that you can take me there."
The kind-looking taxi driver smiled and turned the car around. "Kid, your mother is really generous. Next time, tell your mother not to let you take a stranger's car alone. Do you understand? It's very dangerous."
"Okay." Xiao Kong nodded obediently. He thought for a while and borrowed the driver's phone. "Uncle, my mother might be busy. Can I call my uncle and ask him to come and pick me up? I can prepare the fare for you."
"Okay." The driver was very appreciative of the natural and unrestrained Xiao Kong, who was very brave and methodical. He handed his phone over to him.
The taxi driver looked at the young Xiao Kong and dialed a number skillfully.
"Uncle Long Legs, are you home now? I'm on my way to find you." Xiao Kong pursed his lips. He was a little nervous, as if he was afraid that he would be rejected. "Yes. I didn't bring any money. I'm in the taxi now."
"Uncle, it's okay. Thank you." Xiao Kong thanked him and hung up the phone. He thought of his uncle Long Legs saying that he would wait for him. He didn't know why he felt an inexplicable sense of anticipation and joy in his heart.
In the Gu Villa, Gu Hecheng sat on the sofa thoughtfully after he received a call from Xiao Kong.
Mother Liu came out of the kitchen and saw that Gu Hecheng, who was about to leave, suddenly sat on the sofa. She was puzzled and asked, "Sir, you haven't left yet?"
"Yes." Gu Hecheng answered absent-mindedly. He suddenly looked up and said, "Mother Liu, do you remember the kid called Xiao Kong yesterday?"
Mother Liu, who was about to turn around, heard Gu Hecheng's words. Her heart skipped a beat.
She felt that her limbs had become a little stiff. She slowly turned around and asked carefully with trembling lips, "I think I remember him. What's wrong, sir?"
Gu Hecheng didn't look up. He just stared blankly in front of him and said, "I think he looks a little familiar. Mother Liu, do you think he looks like someone?"
"No! No! "Mother Liu felt that her breathing was about to stop. She quickly denied it.
However, her seemingly agitated reaction didn't seem to attract Gu Hecheng's attention.
When Gu Hecheng asked that question, the suspicion in his heart grew bigger and bigger.
He had to admit that his eyebrows and eyes were very similar to hers.
But if that was really the case, then what Hu Shuli said didn't make sense. How could he be her relative's child?
Gu Hecheng's frown deepened. He even started to think that Xiao Kong looked similar to himself.
He tightened his grip on the phone in his hand. No matter what the truth was, perhaps it was time for him to investigate.
"Sir …" Mother Liu, who was a little flustered, wanted to find a quiet place to calm down. At the same time, she wanted to ask Gu Hecheng what he was thinking.
"Yes?" Gu Hecheng responded and looked up. When he saw that Mother Liu's face was very pale, he couldn't help but ask worriedly, "Mother Liu, what's wrong with you? You don't seem to be feeling well since yesterday. Do you want to rest for a few days? "
"No, no, I'm fine!"
Before Gu Hecheng could finish his sentence, Mother Liu nervously interrupted him.
"Mother Liu, what's wrong with you? Why do you look like you're not feeling well?" Gu Hecheng stared at Mother Liu closely. He found that Mother Liu had been acting very strangely for the past two days. It felt like a liar was hiding a big secret and was afraid that others would find out.
"No, nothing." Mother Liu smiled awkwardly. Although she was a little upset with herself for not being calm, she still insisted, "Sir, I'm fine. I don't need to rest."
Gu Hecheng sized up Mother Liu. Although he felt that it was a little strange, he didn't say anything.
"Okay." Gu Hecheng stood up. "Xiao Kong will be here later. Make him something delicious."
"What?" Mother Liu was so shocked that her face turned pale. She looked at him in disbelief.
"Yes, Xiao Kong is coming. Why are you reacting so strongly?" Gu Hecheng looked at Mother Liu. The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't understand.
Mother Liu seemed to feel Gu Hecheng's puzzled and probing gaze. She immediately hid the shock on her face and said, "It's nothing. Is Xiao Kong coming alone? Don't tell me you're not worried about Xiao Kong coming alone? "
"I don't know. He didn't say anything over the phone. Let's ask him when he's here." Gu Hecheng finished speaking and went upstairs.
Mother Liu went to the kitchen in fear. She hesitantly took out the ingredients from the fridge. She was lost in her thoughts and didn't know whether she should call Shen Qianqian or not.
