Chapter Ninety-Four: The Child Is Missing
Su Yuebai frowned, and just wanted to say something, but was stopped by Gu Tingchen: "Okay, it's rare to have a weekend, don't think about this, let's change our clothes after breakfast." β
After that, the family of four was carried by Gu Tingchen to the hotel he said.
There is a huge swimming pool outside the hotel, and it is noon, there is no one in the pool, and the sun is shining brightly on the water.
When passing by the pool, Su Xiaobai pulled Su Yuebai's hand: "Mom, let's go swimming, shall we?" β
Gu Tingchen, who was walking side by side with Su Yuebai next to him, bent down at this time and picked up Su Xiaobai: "Okay, I'll go after dinner." β
The family of four put their luggage at the hotel and went to a nearby farmhouse for lunch.
Su Yuebai picked a window seat, and Gu Tingchen and the two children began to order food with the waiter.
Outside the window is a bamboo forest, and the midday breeze makes the bamboo leaves rustle slightly. Su Yuebai turned her head to look out the window, and the scenery in front of her was pleasing to the eye, which soothed her physically and mentally.
"What are you looking at here?" A strange male voice suddenly came from the bamboo forest.
A woman's figure appeared in Su Yuebai's field of vision. The woman walked briskly to the right, and soon disappeared into the bamboo forest. For some reason, she always felt that this woman's figure was a bit like Li Zhi.
After a while, Su Yuebai hooked her lips and smiled self-deprecatingly, and said in her heart, why did Li Zhi come here, he must have thought too much.
"I'm done with my two kids, what do you order?" Gu Tingchen said and handed the menu to Su Yuebai.
Su Yuebai took the menu casually, glanced at it a few times, and ordered a few dishes that he liked to eat.
After the waiter left, Gu Tingchen asked, "What were you laughing at just now?" I saw you looking out the window, and suddenly you were smiling. β
Su Yuebai wanted to tell him the truth, but after thinking about it, it was rare for the family to come out on the weekend to relax, and she mentioned Li Zhi in front of her family, which was a little annoying, so she said: "It's nothing, I just think it's good to work overtime for a long time, and occasionally come out to relax." β
It didn't take long for the dishes to be served. Su Xiaobai ate very happily, and said that the stewed chicken here was delicious.
"Since you like to eat so much, then Dad will make it for you another day." Gu Tingchen looked at Su Xiaobai, who was happily eating chicken on the side, and said with a smile.
"Yay!" Su Xiaobai swallowed the food in his mouth and showed a bright smile to Gu Tingchen.
"I know how to eat it, and it's not that I haven't eaten chicken." Su Dabai's complaint came as scheduled.
Su Yuebai glanced at Su Dabai with reproachful eyes, and before he could speak, Su Dabai said: "I'm telling the truth, Xiaobai is so old, and he was so excited when he heard about the food." β
"How old am I, I'm only five years old, and you're the same age, brother, don't pretend to be an adult all day long, okay?" Su Xiaobai looked at him and pouted as he spoke.
"Then don't pretend to be mentally retarded all day long, okay?" Su Dabai replied to her.
After that, Su Dabai and Su Xiaobai began to go back and forth.
Su Yuebai has been used to hearing the two children talking recently, and knows that they are just boring and playing, so she doesn't bother to care about them.
The family ate and chatted, and soon swept away the food on the table.
"Xiaobai, are you full, do you want to eat more?" Su Yuebai turned her head and asked Su Xiaobai.
Su Xiaobai touched his stomach: "It's so full, I can't walk anymore." When I'm going to leave here, I'll ask my dad to carry me away. β
Su Dabai glanced at her again, and did not hide the disgust on his face.
Gu Tingchen smiled: "Okay, it's okay to walk with it, and it's okay to walk with it on your back." β
"Why don't we go to the nearby playground later?" Su Yuebai suddenly remembered that there was a playground nearby, so she proposed.
"Okay." The two children replied to her in unison.
So the four of them got out of the farm and went to the playground. Su Dabai and Su Xiaobai had a lot of fun, and when they came out of the playground, it was already six o'clock in the evening.
"Mom, let's go to the pool later, okay?" Not long after leaving the playground, Su Xiaobai took Su Yuebai's hand and said.
"Good. Anyway, I brought a swimsuit. Su Yuebai replied to her with a smile.
It didn't take long for the four of them to reach the pool. Su Yuebai said to Gu Tingchen at this time: "You sit here with them, and I'll go back to the hotel and get a swimsuit." β
After she said this, she was about to turn around and walk in the direction of the hotel, but Gu Tingchen grabbed her arm: "I'll go get it." β
Su Yuebai turned her head and smiled at him, "Do you know which bag the swimsuit is in?" I packed several bags. I'll go get it, you stay here with the two children, and I'll come over in a while. β
After Su Yuebai left, Gu Tingchen sat down on the bench next to the pool. And Su Dabai and Su Xiaobai were playing on the grass on the side.
Next to the pool is a small garden with neatly trimmed plants. Two children were playing on the garden path. 33
Gu Tingchen watched the two children play for a while, and suddenly heard the mobile phone in his pocket ringing.
He took out his phone, and the screen showed a call from his assistant. As soon as he pressed the answer button, an assistant's voice came out of the receiver of his mobile phone: "Mr. Gu, just now the financial director said that there was an unexpected situation and I need to ask you for advice......
"What's the emergency? You said. Gu Tingchen said into the microphone of the mobile phone.
And Su Xiaobai, who was playing in the garden, said to Su Dabai at this time: "Why don't we play a game, you come to chase me, catch me twice, and I will chase you instead, the range of activities is the entire garden, okay?" β
"Okay, you go some distance first." Although Su Dabai felt that this game was a bit naΓ―ve, he still didn't want to spoil Su Xiaobai's excitement and decided to play with her.
Su Xiaobai replied "Okay" and ran towards the bamboo forest in front.
And Gu Tingchen, who was by the pool, was pacing back and forth on the phone, and did not notice the change in the position of the two children.
Waiting for Su Xiaobai's figure to disappear from his field of vision, Su Dabai said, "Let's go, I'm going to arrest you." β
He didn't hear Su Xiaobai's voice.
Su Dabai muttered, "Why did Xiaobai go so fast this time?" Gone for a while? β
As he spoke, he walked forward.
When he walked to the bamboo forest, he turned around for a while, but he still didn't see Su Xiaobai's figure. Just when he felt that something was not quite right, a familiar person appeared in front of him.
"Sister Li Zhi, why are you here?" Su Dabai said as he took a few steps back.
Li Zhi's expression was a little weird, but he didn't say anything, and walked over to Su Dabai quickly.
When Su Dabai just wanted to shout loudly, Li Zhi walked up to him and covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief.
Su Dabai suddenly felt that the world was spinning, and then his eyes were dark, and he lost consciousness.
As soon as Gu Tingchen finished talking to his assistant on the phone, Su Yuebai's voice sounded in his ears: "Tingchen, where did the two children go?" β
Gu Tingchen turned his head to look at the garden: "I was still playing in the garden just now, I should go inside now." β
So saying, he lifted his leg and walked in the direction of the garden. Su Yuebai also followed him.
However, the two walked around the garden and did not find the two children.
Su Yuebai said to Gu Tingchen a little anxiously, "Where did the two children go?" They were playing here just now, and they only blinked an eye, why are they gone? β
Gu Tingchen held her shoulders: "It's okay, I'll look for it here, you go back to the hotel and talk to the staff, and let them help find it." If we can't find it, then we call the police. β
Su Yuebai nodded, and just wanted to turn around and walk back, but heard Gu Tingchen's gentle voice again: "Don't worry, they may have gone to play nearby." There are so many bushes here, and their silhouettes are obscured. Besides, the security here is not bad, so it should be fine. β
Su Yuebai knew that he was comforting himself. Given the previous experience of kidnapping her two children, she couldn't help herself from thinking too much.
At that moment, she barely squeezed out a smile at Gu Tingchen, and then said, "Okay, I know." β
After Su Yuebai left, Gu Tingchen began to look everywhere in the garden. After looking for a while, Gu Tingchen saw a strange man watering flowers not far away, so he walked over and asked, "Hello, did you see two children around here just now?" β
The strange man raised his head and looked at Gu Tingchen for a while, before answering him, "It seems that there were two children playing around here just now." A little boy and a little girl, aren't they? β
Gu Tingchen replied to him: "Yes." Do you know where they go? β
"They seemed to pass out, and then a woman, along with another man, carried them into a car." The strange man recalled, "However, it is also possible that I am mistaken, and it may not be the two little children you said. β
Gu Tingchen frowned slightly, and then said, "Thank you." β
After Su Yuebai separated from Gu Tingchen, she went back to the hotel and told the staff inside about the disappearance of the two children.
The hotel's management quickly sent professionals to help find it.
"Mrs. Gu, you don't have to worry too much, sit down and have a cup of tea. It is estimated that the two young masters are just playing nearby. Will be back in a while. The director of the hotel handed a cup of tea to Su Yuebai at this time.
Su Yuebai thanked him, took the tea, and said, "Why don't I go out with you to find it, I can't stay in the hotel." β
The director of the hotel looked out for a while at this time, and then turned his head back and said to Su Yuebai: "It looks like it's going to rain outside, so Mrs. Gu doesn't have to go out with us, right?" I believe that our employees will definitely get the big white back. β
Su Yuebai just wanted to say something, but heard the mobile phone in his pocket ringing. She thought it was Gu Tingchen's phone, and quickly took the phone out of her pocket.
The screen showed that it was a call from Li Zhi.
A strong sense of unease enveloped her. She suddenly remembered the woman she had seen when she was eating at the farm just now, and her figure resembled Li Zhi.
Didn't she admit her mistake, that was Li Zhi?
