Huo Yunchen looked at Liu Mo sharply and handed him his mobile phone number: "Send this number to Director Liu so that he can track the exact location."
"yes"
Liu Mo responded solemnly and turned around to call Bureau Liu.
Huo Yunchen and Bai Qingqing slowly picked up the phone.
It was a video call. After the call was connected, a woman with disheveled hair appeared in front of the camera. Her clothes were stripped down to her underwear, shivering from the cold and huddled in a dirty corner.
Bai Qingqing's heart tightened, and she anxiously grabbed Huo Yunchen's cell phone and yelled angrily: "You beasts, let her go. The person you want is me. Let her go, and I will exchange for her."
Huo Yunchen's heart was also severely twisted in the air. He reached out and held Bai Qingqing's hand tightly, staring at her with a heavy gaze, signaling her to calm down.
Bai looked at him gently, unable to feel at peace in her heart. She really couldn't imagine what Gu Qimeng had gone through
Tears suddenly blurred his eyes, and the scene of Chu Qiao's tragic death came to mind again.
She bit her lip and dug her nails into the back of Huo Yunchen's hand.
Huo Yunchen shook his head gravely at her, his eyes calm and profound.
"Bai Qingqing, you also know that the person I want is not her. The person I want has always been you."
A sinister and cold voice came from the other end of the phone, and Bai Qingqing's body trembled.
"Lu Zhinian?"
Bai Qingqing repeated in a trembling tone, looking at Huo Yunchen in surprise.
Huo Yunchen was calm, as if he had already guessed it was him.
"Yes, it's me. You must have thought that I would never be able to make a comeback. But even if I die, I will definitely pull you two to support me. Even if I turn into a ghost, I will haunt you for the rest of my life."
"Lu Zhinian, no, Gu Bei'an, this is a grudge between me and you. It has nothing to do with anyone. You
If you have the ability, come to me and let her go. "
"If you want me to let her go, it's not impossible. I can either exchange it for you or your wife. I, Lu Zhinian, never do business at a loss."
"Lu Zhinian, don't even think about it."
Huo Yunchen yelled angrily, but Lu Zhinian had already hung up the phone before he finished speaking.
He looked at the beeping cell phone and became furious. He threw his hands angrily and threw the cell phone onto the sofa.
He looked at Liu Mo with burning eyes, who was talking to Bureau Liu on the other end.
"There is not enough time to locate it."
Liu Mo said with regret on his face.
Huo Yunchen was in an even worse mood and was angry.
Bai gently picked up Huo Yunchen's cell phone and dialed back, but the sound "The number you dialed has been turned off" came from inside.
Bai Qingqing suddenly felt as if a big stone had been stuffed into her heart. It was so tight that she could hardly breathe.
Her face was livid, and the hand holding the phone was shaking.
Huo Yunchen walked over slowly, squatted down in front of her, and wrapped his trembling hands in his palms.
Her hands were so cold, so cold that her heart instantly became cold.
"Qingqing, don't worry too much, he will definitely call again."
Huo Yunchen comforted him in a deep tone.
Hearing his comforting voice, Bai gently suppressed the tears that he had suppressed for a long time and could no longer restrain them.
One by one, like beans, they dripped onto Huo Yunchen's hand.
"Tell me, how could those perverts and those gangsters do this to her? How could they take off her clothes in such a cold weather? She did nothing wrong, why did they do this to her?"
Bai choked softly and cried until he couldn't make a sound.
Huo Yunchen felt sad and annoyed.
Gu Qimeng did nothing wrong indeed. The only thing she did wrong was that she shouldn't have entered his world and gotten involved with him.
"Will they treat her, will they?"
Bai Qingqing suddenly thought of something and stared at Huo Yunchen with burning eyes.
Huo Yunchen knew what she wanted to say. She wanted to say, if they took off her clothes, would they rape her
He hurriedly denied: "No, no, Lu Zhinian's goal is me, not her. He won't do anything to her."
While denying it, he gently held Bai into his arms, his heart feeling like a turbulent ocean.
"Yes, it won't happen. What Lu Zhinian wants is me, not her." Bai said in a slow and deep tone, and suddenly reached out and hugged Huo Yunchen tightly.
"What are you doing? Come for supper soon. I specially made yellow peach glutinous rice balls and red bean glutinous rice balls."
The study door was pushed open again, and Shen Qingyue led the servant in with two bowls of glutinous rice balls.
Liu Mo quickly turned his head to wipe away his tears before turning around.
Huo Yunchen and Bai Qingqing were also shocked. They quickly collected their emotions and straightened up slowly.
"Liu Mo, what's wrong with you? Your eyes are red. Do you miss your wife and children? Come on, it's very late. You should go home quickly. I asked the kitchen to pack glutinous rice balls for Liu Yun and your little treasure. Remember to take them back and share them with them. Eat together."
Shen Qingyue gave instructions carelessly.
"Thank you, madam. It's just me. I'm on duty today. No, I can't go back."
Liu Mo said hesitantly and looked at Huo Yunchen timidly.
"Go back. What can happen during the Chinese New Year? Go home quickly."
In order to reassure Shen Qingyue, Huo Yunchen also echoed.
Although Liu Mo blamed himself and felt guilty, he had no choice but to leave first.
Shen Qingyue then turned her attention to her son and daughter-in-law, and carefully studied Bai Qingqing's expression.
"Qingqing, did Yunchen bully you again? Why are you crying?"
Bai Qingqing hurriedly explained: "No, how dare he bully me? I just watched Qin Yue's movie and missed my dad."
This explanation is really perfect.
Shen Qingyue believed it immediately.
"Oh, Qin Yue is really thoughtful. He made a movie for his uncle in memory of his uncle. I was also touched. I think his movie will definitely do well at the box office."
As Shen Qingyue spoke, she took Bai Qingqing's hand and brought the yellow peach dumplings to her.
"Come, eat something sweet and you will feel better. You are sweet and happy, and dad can feel it too."
Shen Qingyue smiled knowingly, scooped up a spoonful of it, blew it cool and handed it to Bai Qingqing's mouth.
In the past, she always envied Liu Runan for having a mother-in-law who was very kind and doting on her, but now she seems to have one too.
Bai gently raised her eyes and glanced at Huo Yunchen. Huo Yunchen nodded to her, and she accepted it obediently.
Huo Yunchen had once thought about such a scene, but never really expected it.
Unexpectedly, one day, such a picture would actually appear in front of me.
"Son, you are eating. Why are you standing there in a daze? Do you want me to feed you?"
"Oh, no, I'll do it myself."
Huo Yunchen calmed down and said jokingly.
Bai took two bites and then ate it himself with a spoon. How could he be so embarrassed to let the old man feed him
Shen Qingyue muttered a few more words to Huo Yunchen, telling him not to just work all day long, but also to spend more time with his family.
Huo Yunchen did not refute, but nodded in agreement.
Bai Qingqing suppressed the uneasiness and pain in his heart while eating glutinous rice balls, and his mind was filled with thoughts about Gu Qimeng.
The soup accidentally spilled out and my hands were burned red.
"Is it okay? Let me see if it's hot?"
Shen Qingyue reacted faster than Huo Yunchen. She immediately ran up and grabbed Bai Qingqing's hand and breathed carefully.
"Quick, go get some burn ointment."
"I'm fine"
Bai Qingqing was really not used to Shen Qingyue's enthusiasm. At this time, she just wanted to be quiet.
Take a good moment of silence.
Huo Yunchen saw Bai Qingqing's brows furrowing slightly, and of course he knew how she was feeling at this moment.
She was so confused that she had no time to deal with his mother.
So he slowly opened his mouth and said half-jokingly: "Mom, can you give me a chance to show off?"
Shen Qingyue turned to look at Huo Yunchen and suddenly understood what her son meant, and quickly moved a seat for him.
"That's right. Come and apply some burn ointment on your wife, otherwise she'll get blistered soon."
"I understand, Mom, go back and rest quickly."
Huo Yunchen pushed Shen Qingyue to leave. Shen Qingyue originally wanted to say something more, but before she could say a word, she was pushed out of the door by Huo Yunchen for some reason.
He shook his head helplessly and sighed: "I really forgot about my mother after marrying my wife."
"Isn't this what you think? Isn't it good that the two of them have a good relationship and a harmonious family?"
"Okay, I'm not saying it's bad. I just think they are a little weird today."
Huo Zhien came over to look for his wife after supper, and happened to hear her complaining here.
So he stepped forward and took his wife's hand, leading her slowly out of the courtyard.
"Is there something strange there? The strangest person to me is you."
"Me? What's wrong with me? Old man, tell me clearly, what's wrong with me?"
It was only when the couple got older that they understood each other's place in their hearts, and only when they got older did they start flirting.
Huo Yunchen stood at the door of the study, watching their backs chatting and laughing with mixed emotions.
