Chapter 1177 How I Wish I Had A Daughter Like Her
Elsewhere.
In the middle of the night, Lin Che’s phone rang out of the blue.
In reality, she had not slept soundly at all. Because she felt vaguely uneasy, she did not feel like sleeping. Also, the baby kept waking up, interrupting her sleep even more.
When she answered the phone, she heard the person on the other line scream, “Something happened with the kindergarten!”
Lin Che’s heart immediately sank all the way to the bottom.
“Gu Jingze, Gu Jingze. Quick, wake up. Something happened to Niannian.”
After she woke Gu Jingze up, he was slightly gloomy for a moment.
He frowned while looking at Lin Che’s anxious expression. The only thought on his mind was, What were these people doing? How could they think of informing Lin Che first that something had happened?
Of course, he felt terrible as well now that they had suddenly sparked such immense fear in Lin Che.
It was only after going out and asking around that he found out. Someone had taken the opportunity to kidnap the children during their outdoor trip.
Hearing this, Lin Che was even more on tenterhooks. She sat there and waited for news. She hoped that news would come, but at the same time, she hoped that it would not.
She feared that the arriving news would be something that she wouldn’t want to hear. If so, she would rather receive no news.
However, what was to come was bound to come.
Soon after, someone came over to inform the two of them.
“Sir, Madam, there has still been no news of Little Young Master.”
Lin Che immediately grabbed the person who had come. “What do you mean there is no news?”
Gu Jingze held Lin Che’s shoulders. “Don’t be anxious. Listen to him speak slowly.”
Lin Che hastily asked, “So, what’s the situation now?”
“Madam, Little Young Master jumped off the cliff. He brought Miss Yunyun with him.”
“What?”
Lin Che was really about to go mad.
“The Little Young Master of the Li family probably jumped down together with them too.”
“Li Mo?” Lin Che started shaking once again.
“But Madam, they’ve already gone down to search for them. They didn’t find a single corpse, nor were there any signs of them.”
Lin Che’s brow even trembled when she heard the word corpse.
Beside her, Gu Jingze scowled and gestured for him to take his leave.
Why exactly did these people speak this way…
He placed his hands on Lin Che’s shoulders. “Alright. If they didn’t find corpses, it means that Niannian was fine after jumping down.”
“But…”
“Niannian is definitely not someone who would easily jump off. He’s not that stupid. What’s more, he even brought Yunyun along.”
Lin Che raised her head. “You mean he’ll be fine?”
“Of course.”
Just then, Mu Feiran had already rushed here in disarray.
Black Hawk was here together with her.
Mu Feiran was shaking when she saw Lin Che. Her body looked weak too. “How could this have happened…”
Black Hawk also asked, “What was Niannian doing?”
Gu Jingze’s voice remained quite calm. “He jumped off the cliff to escape his pursuers.”
Black Hawk frowned upon hearing this. Then, he said, “Oh, he recently stole from me a portable gadget that shoots and latches onto the wall.”
Lin Che asked, “What’s that?”
Gu Jingze said, “It’s something that can attach to the wall is able to carry the weight of ten adults.”
“Huh?”
Black Hawk said, “He may have jumped off the cliff because he had this with him. But he hasn’t used it often. Can he use it properly?”
Gu Jingze said, “Since he chose to jump down, it means he was confident. It’s fine.”
Lin Che drew in a deep breath. She sat there, dispirited.
Was it true? Would Niannian be fine?
But how could Niannian be so bold? He even dared to jump down bringing Yunyun with him.
Black Hawk said, “This brat… in the future, I really can’t let him enter my armory as he pleases. I can’t believe he even stole something. After stealing it, he was even so audacious as to use it. Eh. I didn’t expect it. Someone came to tell me just this morning that it was missing. It’s a newly-invented gadget worth a few million. They don’t even sell it outside, you know?”
Gu Jingze said, “I told you from the beginning to be wary of him.”
“Eh. Because he’s your son, a crooked stick will have a crooked shadow.”
Just then, he saw Li Mingyu walk in from outside too.
“What the h.e.l.l is going on? What did they say happened to my child?”
“Your child…” Lin Che stood up at this moment and looked at Li Mingyu. “We still don’t know. They jumped off the cliff together, but not a single body was found. We think they’re probably still alive. It’s just that we haven’t found them yet.”
Hearing this, Li Mingyu’s expression loosened considerably. He remained silent for a moment before slamming the table. “Tch. Who’s sick of living? How dare they touch my son?”
Lin Che said, “They may have been targeting Niannian. But I don’t know why they jumped off together.”
When Li Mingyu heard this, he looked at Gu Jingze and said, “Good gracious. I told you not to be too arrogant a long time ago. Look what’s happened now.”
Gu Jingze scoffed. “In that case, don’t move your company to C Nation. Who’s the one rus.h.i.+ng to come here and join in?”
“I…”
“Enough. You guys shouldn’t quarrel. Shouldn’t looking for the children be the most important priority now?” Black Hawk said from the side.
Mu Feiran hastily added, “So, what should we do now?”
Gu Jingze said, “We’re looking for them and those people are probably looking for them too. I’ll get my men to search for them.”
Black Hawk said, “In that case, I’ll instruct my men to go and check who’s still looking for them. If they see people looking for the children, they’ll kill them off, so they don’t find the children first.”
Li Mingyu asked, “What do I do then?”
Gu Jingze pulled Lin Che along while walking out. He brushed past Li Mingyu and said nonchalantly, “You can just stay away from us.”
“Hey, my son is missing. How can you tell me to stay away when he’s missing because of you… no way. I must go and search for him. I’m going to find out who dared to go after my son. Didn’t they know who that was? How dare they lay a hand on my son. Are they really looking for death? If I find them, I’ll definitely chop them up into pieces.”
Seeing the situation, Mu Feiran was still a little worried.
Beside her, Black Hawk had his arm around her shoulder. “Alright. She’ll be fine with Niannian.”
Mu Feiran said, “Niannian used to be a very sensible child. Why has he become so mischievous now?”
Black Hawk said, “He was too suppressed in America, so he found release when he came here and had everything… but this child is intelligent enough. Although he’s a little showy and too arrogant as well, he’s someone who will definitely achieve great things in the future. If Yunyun is with him, she will probably return safely.”
Mu Feiran looked up at him.
He looked down and said, “I absolutely won’t allow Yunyun to be hurt either. Don’t worry.”
Mu Feiran looked at him and nodded. “Why are you so good to Yunyun…”
Black Hawk smiled faintly and said, “Because I like Yunyun.”
“But… ultimately, Yunyun isn’t related to you. You like her so much…”
Black Hawk said, “How do you know we’re not related? Maybe we’ll be related in the future.”
“…” Mu Feiran was blus.h.i.+ng.
He said, “Besides, Yunyun is a good kid. She relies on me so much too…”
Mu Feiran said, “It’s all because you treat her too well… I don’t know how to tell her in the future, either. If she’s too reliant on you and it affects you…”
