An Xiaoning immediately stood up. Just as she was about to go out, Jin Qingyan said,
If you don’t wish your blind date to be skinned alive, you should know what to do.

She looked up and said,
Jin Qingyan, you have no right to threaten me. Don’t forget, you’re only my ex-husband. You have no right to decide what I do or who I get together with.

The biometric lock didn’t require a thumbprint for the door to unlock when she was exiting the room.
The moment the door closed, Jin Qingyan was so depressed that he was on the verge of tears.
God knows how much he’d wanted to strangle her to death the moment he heard that she had gone for a matchmaking session.


The result of his impulsive decision was misery and grief.
Since he had brought all of this upon himself, he only had himself to blame for having to bear the negative consequences.
Knock, knock, knock…
Jin Qingyan strode toward the door and flung it open to see that it was Fan Shixin, after which he turned around to walk away immediately.

Young Sir, did you think that Ms. An had come back? How did the talk with her go?
Fan Shixin asked, entering the room while smiling.

She said that she’ll never forgive me no matter what I do. She even went for a matchmaking session, and she said that she’d like to get together with her blind date. Go and find out immediately who her blind date was.


How do I go about that? How am I supposed to know who she met in the afternoon?
Fan Shixin asked in puzzlement.

Are you stupid? Send someone to shadow her for the next few days and check which man she’s been meeting. Transfer the information to me then.


Yes, I promise the task will be accomplished. Young Sir, how did you let Ms. An leave so easily?
Fan Shixin asked.

Do you really think there won’t be a chance for her to come here again?



Fan Shixin chuckled and said,
That’s true. You have Little Sir together with you, she’ll come whenever you want her to.

He rolled his eyes at Fan Shixin and said,
You make it sound as if my son is a tool. You may go out.


Yes.

Jin Qingyan entered the bathroom and turned on the tap, after which the water began flowing continuously.
After removing his clothes, he supported himself against the basin and stared at his reflection in the mirror.
Jin Qingyan had a sullen expression on his face.
He finally admitted that he was to blame for everything.
He knew the situation the moment he saw her reaction.
In hindsight, he was acting rather unusual at the thought of how he allowed anger to consume him and mess with his rationality.
With his bare hands, he pushed away the happiness that he should have treasured.


Such bliss would probably be hard to come by again.

It was raining today.
The weather was cold and chilly in the winter.
When it was time for dismissal in the afternoon, Long Xiaoxi was asked to meet the teacher.
As soon as she reached the entrance of the school, she was greeted with the rare sight of Mei Shuangshuang.

Xiaoxi, is this lady your biological aunt?

Long Xiaoxi looked up at Mei Shuangshuang and nodded.

Since that’s the case, you may follow your aunt home. She’s here to pick you up.


Teacher, have you called my mother to verify?
Long Xiaoxi asked.



No, I’ll do that right now. Please wait for me here while I go get my mobile phone,
said the teacher.
Mei Shuangshuang nodded and said,
Go ahead, Teacher.

Once the teacher entered the office, Mei Shuangshuang looked down and said,
There’s a small provision store outside. Auntie will buy you some tasty snacks and fun toys. Shall we wait there for Teacher to come?

Long Xiaoxi agreed to go with her without thinking twice. After all, she was still only a four-year-old child.
Once they exited the school, Mei Shuangshuang picked her up and boarded a van. Long Xiaoxi immediately tried to shriek. However, Mei Shuangshuang covered Long Xiaoxi’s mouth and warned,
If you dare make a single sound, I’ll throw you down from the van and make you fall to your death.

Long Xiaoxi dared not utter a word and stared at Mei Shuangshuang with tears in her eyes. Mei Shuangshuang then retracted her hand.

Auntie… where are you taking me?

Mei Shuangshuang looked at her and said,
I’m only going to take you to my place to have fun for a few days. I’ll treat you well if you obey me. But if you misbehave, I’ll beat you.


Yes, Auntie, I’ll be good. Don’t hit me,
said Long Xiaoxi, staring at the window and pouting her lips, not daring to burst into tears.
Mei Shuangshuang stared at her, overwhelmed with nervousness and anxiety.


She had tried to look for an opportunity to take action countless times before.
However, she never found the chance to approach Mei Yangyang or the children.
After racking her brains, she decided to take the risk of abducting Long Xiaoxi.
Mei Shuangshuang decided to call Mei Yangyang to stop her from calling the police. Yet, just as she was about to do so, her mobile phone rang.

Hello.


Mei Shuangshuang, what are you trying to do? Where have you taken Xiaoxi to!?!
Mei Yangyang hollered in exasperation, wishing she could shred her into pieces.

Sis, hear me out. I won’t hurt her. But I’m penniless now, so transfer me some money and I’ll release her immediately. Don’t call the cops on me, deal?


How much do you want?
Mei Yangyang asked.

Ten million.


What!?! Ten million dollars!?!
Mei Yangyang screeched, seething with uncontrollable anger.

Do you think your daughter’s life isn’t worth ten million dollars? Sis, I know you must be thinking of calling the police, but let me make things clear to you beforehand. If you dare call the police, I’ll go all out and kill Xiaoxi before killing myself. If you transfer me the money and promise me not to call the police, I’ll release Xiaoxi immediately,
Mei Shuangshuang warned.
Gripping her phone tightly, Mei Yangyang said,
Fine, I won’t call the police. Tell me your bank account number. I’ll tell your brother-in-law to transfer the money to you immediately. Mei Shuangshuang, if you dare lay a finger on Xiaoxi, you’ll get it from me.


Alright.

Mei Yangyang ended the call and said to Xiaozong,
My sis has agreed, send my bank account number to her now.


Great. You’re her biological sister and this amount of money is peanuts to her. She won’t call the cops,
said Xiaozong, beaming with joy while sending the text message.

I thought so too. She can’t possibly let me get arrested and put behind bars. Even if she does, Father wouldn’t agree to it. Seems like there’s no way to recover those hundreds of thousands I’ve lost through unauthorized transactions. Once I get the money, I’ll make it a fixed deposit account so that no one can make fraudulent purchases with my card.

Xiaozong squinted and said,
Great idea.


Where are we going now?


To a safe place, of course. Fatty has already made all the necessary arrangements. They won’t be able to find us,
Xiaozong said, smiling.
The safe place he was referring to was a cave in the mountains. They had already prepared food and water supplies, as well as some necessities. Staying inside the cave for a week or more wouldn’t be an issue.
Once they arrived, Mei Shuangshuang carried her down from the van. Staring at the pitch darkness of the cave, Long Xiaoxi stopped in her tracks and dared not take another step forward.

I don’t want to go inside. I’m scared.


What are you afraid of? Do you really think a snake will eat you up?
Mei Shuangshuang questioned with raised brows.
Long Xiaoxi quivered in fear and said,
Auntie, shall we go home?
