"Uncle Shen, I'm Tiantian."
"Tiantian …" Shen Mingxi's heart softened when he heard the child's tender voice.
"Uncle Shen, do you know where Mommy is?"
Shen Mingxi then remembered that Huo Yanyan was with a strange man last night and had her picture taken. She was definitely not at home.
"I don't know. What's wrong?"
"I called her, but I couldn't get through. Her phone was turned off … I'm so hungry. I didn't eat anything this morning, and no one took me to school."
"Are you home alone?" Shen Mingxi asked worriedly.
"Yes."
"Where's Auntie?" Shen Mingxi remembered that there used to be a nanny at home who took care of him and his daughter.
"Mommy chased Auntie away … Mommy's been in a bad mood lately. She always throws tantrums … I'm scared."
"Tiantian, wait at home. Don't run around. I'll pick you up."
"Okay, I'll be good. Come quickly, Uncle."
Shen Mingxi took the phone and called Huo Yanyan again. As expected, her phone was turned off.
"This woman is crazy … Doesn't she care about her own child?" Shen Mingxi angrily rushed downstairs.
At Huo Yanyan's house
Shen Mingxi saw Huo Yanyan's daughter, Tiantian. The little girl's hair was disheveled. She sat on the sofa and ate the remaining half of a bag of biscuits.
She looked so pathetic that Shen Mingxi's heart ached for her …
"Uncle Shen."
Seeing Shen Mingxi come in, Tiantian ran over. She hugged Shen Mingxi's leg.
"Why are you eating these?" Shen Mingxi frowned slightly.
"I only have these at home. I'm hungry."
"Stop eating. Let's go. I'll take you out to eat good food."
"Okay."
The little girl was overjoyed.
Shen Mingxi drove Tiantian to the styling studio and asked someone to braid her hair.
Then, he took her to the mall and bought two sets of clothes. After she changed, Shen Mingxi asked her. "What do you want to eat?"
"Can we go to Pizza Hut? Uncle, I want to eat chicken wings. "
"Sure."
Shen Mingxi stopped the car in front of a Pizza Hut in the city center upon hearing the child's small request.
She brought Tian Tian in and ordered a table.
"Tiantian, your mother … hasn't she been coming home lately?"
"Yes." The little girl nodded.
"Then how will you come back after school?"
"I stayed at the kindergarten and waited for Mommy to pick me up, but she always went very late. There was once when she didn't go the whole night. The teacher brought me to stay at her house."
The little girl said as she gnawed on a chicken wing.
Shen Mingxi's heart ached for her …
She was such a young child, yet she had to follow Huo Yanyan from one place to another.
This was a typical case of not living a good life.
"Uncle Shen, I want to go somewhere this weekend …"
"Where would you like to go?"
"I want to go play with Little Bean and Pudding. I haven't seen them in a long time. Also, Auntie Huo Mien is very nice to me. Every time I go to her house, she bakes us cakes and makes ice cream …"
Shen Mingxi fell silent …
Given the current situation, Tiantian definitely could not go to South Hill Manor.
He would definitely not be welcomed.
"The two sisters might not be free. I'll take you to the aquarium this weekend, okay?" Shen Mingxi coaxed her.
"Okay, okay. I like dolphin babies." The little girl was easy to coax.
Huo Yanyan wandered outside … When she returned home, she found that the baby was gone. She called the kindergarten, but the baby was not there.
She panicked …
She was about to call the police when she remembered that she had checked the surveillance records of the neighborhood. When she saw that Shen Mingxi had taken her daughter away, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Then, Huo Yanyan dialed Shen Mingxi's number.
"Hello?"
"Where have you taken my daughter?" Her tone was interrogative, accusatory.
