Chapter 1462 Regret is a Bitter Pill
Long Tengfei interrupted Long Hui. "Son, let the police do their job. We can deal with Mao Qiuyue and the Maos later if they"re really the one who ordered the kidnapping of my grandson. But before all that, we must first focus on finding Little Jun."
"Yes, Father," Long Hui replied with gritted teeth.
The three-way confrontation between Jiang Ying Yue, Lin Yehan, and Long Hui temporarily stopped because of Long Tengfei. However, the tense atmosphere was still palpable.
Jin Liwei was about to return to his wife when Lin Yehan asked him, "Third Brother, can we watch the CCTV footage you handed to the police?"
Jiang Ying Yue and the others all looked at him. They all wanted to watch it.
Jin Liwei hesitated but eventually sighed. He knew that this couldn"t be avoided.
In the end, he first warned them about the contents, especially Jiang Ying Yue, before showing them the video footage on his phone. It was already uploaded to their family cloud storage by his wife.
Lin Yehan held Jin Liwei"s phone while Jiang Ying Yue watched beside her. Long Tengfei sat on his other side while Long Hui stood behind them.
Long Hui could sense that Jiang Ying Yue didn"t want him anywhere near her, but he had the right to know what exactly happened to their son. Fortunately, neither she nor Lin Yehan stopped him from watching the video footage.
When they reached the part where the kidnappers shot the German Shepherd dog fiercely protecting Little Jun, Jiang Ying Yue couldn"t help but cry out. Then in the next few seconds, Little Jun was also slapped down to the ground. This time, everyone was enraged.
"Little Jun!" Jiang Ying Yue felt her vision go dark.
"Ying Yue!" Lin Yehan tossed the phone to Long Tengfei who managed to clumsily catch it.
Fortunately, Jiang Ying Yue didn"t lose consciousness. She wanted to run where her son was taken but she didn"t know where. The bone-deep fear for her son made her tremble.
"b.a.s.t.a.r.ds!" Long Hui grabbed a nearby flower vase and smashed it against the wall. "How dare you hurt my son?! I"ll kill you all! I"ll kill you!!!!!"
Long Tengfei stayed silent but his grip on the phone tightened. He continued to watch, trying his best to search for any clues in the video that the police hadn"t discovered yet.
"Sir boss, everyone!" Dom interrupted them.
They all turned to look at him.
"They found Gravy! And they"ve already located Little Junie boy!" Dom"s tears flowed down his face. "Sis Yue, we"re going to rescue our Little Junie boy. I can feel it in my bones—wuwuwuwu! You have to trust me when I say that I can really feel it in my bones!"
"Really?!" Jiang Ying Yue stood up and grabbed Dom"s arms. "Are you sure about that, Dom?!"
He nodded.
The police officers looked at each other in confusion.
Police Officer 1: "Did we find the boy and the dog?"
Police Officer 2: "Maybe?"
Police Officer 3: "We haven"t received any reports about it. Let me contact HQ."
Jin Liwei could hear the police talking. He had an idea about who found Gravy and located his G.o.dson, but he wouldn"t tell the police if his suspicion was correct.
He cleared his throat. "It might be my people. Let me go check and confirm on my end."
The police officers had a look of realization.
"Oh, of course, Mr. Jin. Go ahead. And please update us about any developments, too, if possible."
"En." Jin Liwei nodded. "I will."
Before he could ask for it, Long Tengfei handed him his phone. "Please save my grandson."
"Of course, Father-in-law."
After saying this to Long Tengfei, Jin Liwei hurried to the other room.
Jiang Ying Yue and the others didn"t notice his departure. They were too busy asking Dom questions, but unfortunately, he didn"t know any additional information. Nevertheless, Jiang Ying Yue began to feel more optimistic about the rescue of her son and dog.
Lin Yehan hugged his wife.
Long Hui couldn"t sit still and walked back and forth while trying to calm himself down. He glanced at Jiang Ying Yue and Lin Yehan.
He almost blew his top again watching them but managed to stop himself in time. Not only was his father there to reprimand him if he did that, but the police officers wouldn"t allow him to make trouble either. He could only grit his teeth and avoid looking at his ex-lover being embraced by her husband.
"It should"ve been me beside her!" he thought darkly.
He wished to kick Lin Yehan away from Jiang Ying Yue and stand beside her. They could comfort each other while waiting for their son"s rescue.
But everything was too late now.
She belonged to somebody else. This fact made his heart feel like it was being twisted.
If only he hadn"t abandoned Jiang Ying Yue and their son.
If only he dared to marry her, not fearing the criticisms from the Long clan elders.
If only he hadn"t married Mao Qiuyue in the first place and let her harm the mother and son.
If only he had been a normal man, not the crown prince of Long Industries, then he could have built a happy family with Jiang Ying Yue and their son without any problems.
If only….
There were a lot of if onlys that he wished could"ve happened instead of this f*cked-up situation that he was living in right now.
Regret was indeed an extremely bitter pill.
With a heavy heart, Long Hui forced himself to calm down and wait for news about his missing son instead.
He had already lost his ex-lover.
He couldn"t lose his child as well.

Inside the next room, Jin Liwei found his wife still working on her laptop. This time, she had earphones on—the special ones that she designed herself before—and was talking to some people. She saw him and removed one of the earphones.
"My brother"s people found Gravy," she told her husband. "They said he"s barely alive but they"ll do their best to save him. His injuries are extremely serious."
Jin Liwei nodded.
Iris handed him one of the earpieces. He put it on. Now, he could listen to the real-time rescue attempt of their G.o.dson.
