Her daughter had been so lively when she was young, running with joy on her delicate little face, as if free from all worries. She loved to sit in the sun and watch her play then.
Just like… now!
But why was she running so fast? She would fall. Did she hurt herself again?
Before the woman could think too much, she realized the scenery around her was rapidly receding. She immediately snapped out of her joy. Had the car started moving?
“Stop! Stop the car! Don’t go!”
Aiya anxiously patted the car window and turned her head to look at the driver. But in the next second, she looked at that girl again…
The driver, gripping the steering wheel, looked at the woman in the back seat with a hint of difficulty. “Madam, this is an overpass. We can’t stop here!” The road had only just been cleared, and they could only move forward.
A woman’s tear streamed down her face as she looked at a blue dot in the distance, sobbing uncontrollably. “You… hurry and take a detour… to the other side…” Perhaps she could catch up?
But she knew in her heart that the probability was slim.
Upon hearing this, the driver’s eyes immediately darted to the side. To get to the road on the other side, they would have to take a long detour to turn around!
He was about to say something, but seeing that the lady’s delicate and elegant makeup was somewhat ruined, he immediately shut his mouth. “Yes, Madam.”
Then, after fumbling for his phone on the passenger seat, he dialed the top number on the list…
Within a few seconds, the call connected. Before he could even open his mouth, a voice came from the other end.
“Has Madam arrived safely?”
The gentleman truly loved his wife as he had for the past ten years, attending to every detail. Anything concerning his wife was his top priority.
The driver glanced at the rearview mirror and answered thoughtfully, “We’ve reached S City. However, Madam seemed very upset just now, as if she saw something.”
Hearing this, the man immediately stopped the report from the person beside him, frowned, and his tone lost its calm demeanor. “Give the phone to Madam!”
The driver freed one hand and passed the phone to the back. “Madam, the gentleman is looking for you.”
The woman then lowered her slender hand, which had been partially covering her face. However, it seemed as if the man’s current companionship had triggered a switch, and her tears continued to stream down her cheeks without a sound.
The man on the other end, hearing the woman’s cries, immediately panicked. “Qian Ya, what’s wrong? What happened? Don’t cry.”
But the woman on the other end cried even harder, as if to release all the pent-up emotions of so many years.
Finally, after a long while, she stopped. She quickly wiped away her tears and said, “A Man, I just saw our daughter. Hurry and have someone look for her!”
What? They found Duo Duo?
The shock in the man’s eyes was completely unconcealable. Everyone saw their normally impassive gentleman appear as if he had received a major shock, and they all secretly looked up with curiosity.
But… their gentleman… ran away…
No, sir, where is your dignity? And didn’t you just say you had something to do?
The man who walked out suddenly stopped. He remembered that Qian Ya was like this during the years she lost her daughter, mistaking similar-looking girls for her. It was only after Zi Yue was born that she gradually got better.
Whether it was her or not, he couldn’t stay here and be at ease. He immediately instructed Lian Bo, who was following him, with a grim expression: “Go, bring the plane here!”
Lian Bo had always been by the gentleman’s side and naturally knew that it was the Madam who was in trouble. He didn’t dare to delay any further.
Soon, a plane flew towards S City…
Xuan Mo Han looked at the bridge blocking his path with impatience, frequently glancing at his exquisite and expensive wristwatch.
It was Xuan Mo Han’s good driving skills that made it possible. For an ordinary person, they might have been crushed under the large stone along with their car.
“Buzzzzzzz~”
Xuan Mo Han rolled down the car window. A gust of wind blew past, and then he answered the phone.
“Young Master, Madam Aiya has arrived. We let her pass directly.”
When they spotted her during airport screening, they immediately made way. If it were just an international master, it would be nothing, but this lady and her husband were no ordinary people.
What was considered a significant matter by the bodyguards did not stir a ripple in Xuan Mo Han.
“Mm.”
As he was speaking, a construction crane vehicle drove up and moved the large stone blocking the way. Xuan Mo Han’s narrow eyes glanced at it before he immediately started the engine, and in the next second, the car sped away.
A few cars behind him, Lan Qian Qian was still running frantically. She didn’t even realize she was in the middle of the road at this moment.
“What should we do? The road is so congested. We can’t see Miss Lan anymore.”
From a considerable distance behind, in a black car, the person in the passenger seat turned to the driver with some urgency, looking at his brother. The other brothers in the back seat nodded emphatically in agreement.
The man in the driver’s seat said casually, “If the road is blocked like this, everyone is blocked. Where can Miss Lan go? Even if someone is causing trouble, they would pick a good spot, right? Waiting for us to catch her like a turtle in a jar here!”
That made sense!
The others immediately settled back in their seats.
How could they have imagined that an accident would occur here? They were all impatiently waiting for the cars ahead to move.
And the Miss Lan they were talking about was now leading a long convoy of cars behind her as she ran wildly. However, she was running, while the cars were following somewhat unsteadily…
Originally, some people had stuck their heads out to curse, and some had continuously honked their horns. But the woman in front refused to yield the road and showed no reaction. They couldn’t hit her, so they could only start their cars and follow her.
As time passed, this strange scene formed.
At the intersection ahead, Lan Qian Qian suddenly jumped off the overpass. Looking closely at the direction she was running, it was the road closest to Huayu Manor.
However, this road was not a clear and open path…
The road leading to the destination was winding, with many curves and barriers.
After running for a long time, a river appeared ahead, and not far away were towering high-rise buildings. A one-meter-wide small bridge connected them. The bridge was not long, but in this flowing river, it appeared exceptionally wide.
Moreover, due to the heavy rainfall, the floodwaters had spread, and the original stream had now merged into a large river, rushing towards the distance with surging momentum.
It was precisely because of the excessive water volume that a section of the bridge deck was washed away, although it was still passable for an adult.
With this torrential downpour, some buildings couldn’t withstand the strain, indicating substandard construction quality.
“Help! Auntie, please save me! I’m so scared, woo woo woo~”
As Lan Qian Qian was about to cross the bridge, she heard a tender child’s voice. She couldn’t help but stop, her eyes red as she looked over.
