Chapter 238: The Price of Being Released

When the car came to a steady stop, I opened my eyes as if I had just woken up.

In front of me is the old mansion of the Li family, and I can't wait to rush in to see Li Xue and Xixi.

As soon as I entered the door, I shouted eagerly, "Mom, Xixi! Mom......"

After I shouted a few times, a small figure ran down the stairs and threw herself into my arms.

"Mommy!" As if wronged, Xi Xi rubbed desperately in my arms, and said in a muffled voice, "Mommy, where have you been?" Hei Xi really misses you! ”

Hearing this aggrieved little milk voice, I felt distressed for a while, and quickly hugged Xixi in my arms, and the thoughts that I hadn't seen for a few days came rushing over, and I saw Xixi pouting, and I also moistened my eyes.

I touched his head and coaxed comfortingly: "It's Mommy who is not good, which makes Xixi worried." Mommy promises not to leave you for so long. ”

Hei Xi lifted his fleshy little hand and gently wiped away tears for me.

"Mommy doesn't cry, Xixi is good, Xixi will listen to Dad, Xixi doesn't make trouble, Mommy don't cry."

Xi Xi was too young to understand what was going on, but he deliberately pretended to be an adult to comfort me, which still touched my heart fiercely.

It's just that I never saw Li Xue come out, and that feeling of uneasiness hit my heart again.

I suppressed the panic in my heart and asked Xixi, "What about Grandma?" ”

Hei Xi fiddled with the collar of my clothes, shook her head blankly, and blinked her big simple eyes, "Grandma didn't come back with Xi Xi. ”

My heart was suddenly tight, so only Xixi was taken back to Li's house, what about Li Xue?

Just when I was full of questions, Li Yunzhou walked in, and when Xi Xi saw him, he immediately smiled and opened his hands to hug him.

"Daddy! Nozomi wants her dad to play with her! ”

Li Yunzhou naturally took Xixi from my arms, and coaxed him gently: "Xixi is good, Dad will play with you later." Would it be okay to read a storybook with my aunt first? ”

It was not easy to see his father, Xixi was a little unhappy, but he didn't make a fuss, and after being put down by Li Yunzhou, he obediently took the hand of the nursery teacher and went back to the room in the light coaxing of the nursery.

I couldn't wait to ask, somewhat aggressively, "Where's my mother?" Where did you send her? ”

Li Yunzhou's gentleness disappeared abruptly in an instant, and his expression became serious when he looked at me, "Can you calm down?" ”

"Calm down? How do you calm me down? Xixi and my mother were picked up by the Li family, but now she is not in the Li family. Shouldn't I ask you for an explanation? ”

I looked directly at Li Yunzhou angrily, and regarded Li Xue's safety as the responsibility of their Li family, I was eager to get Li Xue's news, and even more eager to see Li Xue and ask the doubts in my heart.

Under my questioning gaze, Li Yunzhou raised his eyebrows, and his dark eyes made me unable to guess his thoughts at the moment, and even felt a trace of abnormality.

He didn't answer my question, but asked me to sit down, poured a cup of hot tea and pushed it over, and said slowly: "After you entered the police station, Li Xue tried to hire a lawyer to defend you, and hoped to bail you out as soon as possible, I think you should also know this." ”

I didn't have the heart to drink tea, but I answered in a deep voice.

"I've seen the lawyer she hired, surnamed Jiang, but when I called him this morning, he said my mother had canceled his legal representation."

"Don't you wonder why she suddenly canceled it?"

Li Yunzhou's words struck me in the heart, and I frowned and looked at him, eager to learn more from him.

Li Yunzhou's expression was slightly solemn, "In your situation, if you want to be released on bail, you must have enough evidence." But the psychiatrist Wu Dongmei in your mouth is the key to rescuing you, but she has long since disappeared, and no one even knows her whereabouts. ”

I was stunned, I only learned about Wu Dongmei's whereabouts today, I know very well the impact of Wu Dongmei's disappearance on the whole case, and I can also understand Li Xue's powerless despair outside.

"That Wu Dongmei can disappear so suddenly and completely, either she is not a simple person, or there must be someone with extraordinary power behind her to clean up the aftermath for her, and your mother may also choose to give up the lawyer's investigation and turn to the Li family for help because she found out the background of 'Wu Dongmei'."

Listening to Li Yunzhou's analysis, I gradually calmed down.

Li Xue now has no trustworthy people around her, and in isolation, all she can think of is the Li family.

It's just that Li Yunzhou and I have already divorced, and I have no relationship with the Li family for a long time, not to mention that the stigma of "taking illegal drugs" hangs on me, for the reputation of the Li family, Old Man Li can't wait to stay away from me, why does Li Xue think that Old Man Li is willing to save me?

As if seeing through my doubts, Li Yunzhou continued unhurriedly: "And the only bargaining chip your mother has in negotiations with your grandfather is Xixi. ”

My heart fluttered, and my eyes widened.

"She said that as long as grandpa is willing to rescue you, she will let Xixi return to Li's house."

My only hope was shattered, and my Xixi was indeed a commodity to be traded, and for me.

I pursed my lips, unable to contain the fluttering inside me.

Li Xue is also a mother, she should know very well how important the child is to her mother, how can she use Xixi as a bargaining chip?

If I knew that this was the condition that I exchanged with the Li family, then I would rather stay in the police station and be detained than let Li Xue bow to the Li family.

"No, I don't believe my mom would do such a thing. She loves Xixi so much, she won't be willing to let Xixi return to the Li family......"

I couldn't believe it, and I couldn't find the right reason to convince myself.

"Ruan Shi, maybe your mother is really forced to do so." Li Yunzhou pressed my shoulders to control my excited emotions, "I also speculated from Xixi's description, she may really have no choice, and she can't watch you being framed." ”

I looked up in a daze, "What did Xixi tell you?" ”

Li Yunzhou sighed and told me all about the scene described by Xi Xi.

After my accident, in the hotel in Haicheng, Li Xue received a phone call, and then cried for a while, Xixi didn't know why his grandmother was crying, but he felt that his grandmother seemed to be very sad.

Xi Xi sensibly stayed by her grandmother's side, handed her tissues to help her wipe her tears, until her grandmother's emotions gradually calmed down, but told Xi Xi that she would take him back to see her grandfather later.

Early this morning, Mr. Li's car arrived at the door of the Haicheng Hotel and took their grandfather and grandson back to the capital.

Xi Xi will not lie, I have to choose to believe Li Yunzhou's speculation, I believe that it was Li Xue who decided to send Xi Xi back to Li's house, but the key is the phone call Li Xue received, what did it say? How could it make her so sad?
