Joshua became calmer and said slowly, "I can let you see her, but you have to agree to another request of mine first."

Any more requests?

Wen Xiaoman's heart tightened, and her intuition told her that this was definitely not a good request.

She looked at him warily, not daring to respond easily.

Qiao Siyue took in her defensive expression and suddenly chuckled, a bit teasingly: "Are you scared? Looking at you like this, you don't think... I'm going to eat you, do you?"

When he spoke directly to her heart's content, Wen Xiaoman's cheeks flushed instantly, with both embarrassment and anger.

"Tell me first, what are your requirements?"

"Don't worry, I'm not in a hurry yet." Qiao Siyue restrained his smile and his tone became more serious, but his eyes were still deep and unfathomable. "My request is that you accompany me to try on wedding dresses tomorrow. The whole time, you must show that you are willing and looking forward to the wedding."

Just...trying on wedding dresses?

Wen Xiaoman was stunned for a moment, and his tense nerves relaxed a little.

Compared to the various horrific possibilities she had anticipated, this request seemed... quite acceptable.

As long as I can see Yanyan as soon as possible and confirm her safety.

She nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay, I'll accompany you to try on wedding dresses, but after trying on the wedding dresses, you must take me to see Yanyan immediately."

Seeing that she agreed so readily, Qiao Siyue showed a triumphant smile on his face: "Okay, my... fiancée."

......

After Wen Xiaoman got Qiao Siyue's promise, she didn't want to stay any longer. She immediately pushed him away and left quickly, her back looking a little hurried.

Watching her disappear at the end of the corridor, the pretended happy smile on Qiao Siyue's face instantly disappeared, and his eyes became deep and dangerous.

He snapped his fingers lightly, and a subordinate dressed in black and with a sharp aura instantly appeared beside him.

"Young Master." The subordinate bowed.

Qiao Siyue's gaze was still fixed on the direction Wen Xiaoman had left, and his voice was low and cold: "Go check which hotel Mr. Bo and Ms. Su are in."

"Yes." The subordinate immediately obeyed the order, and then asked cautiously, "Master, do we need to take any measures against them?"

Qiao Siyue narrowed his eyes and waved his hand: "Not for now, keep an eye on them first."

"Understood." The subordinate nodded and quickly retreated.

On the other side, Wen Xiaoman returned to the banquet hall and could no longer see Su Yutang. They must have left.

She immediately found an empty corner, took out the contact information that Su Yutang had just quietly handed to her, and dialed it.

When she received the call, Su Yutang was already in the car on her way back. Seeing the unfamiliar number, she answered it immediately.

Wen Xiaoman's voice came from the other end: "Tangtang, it's me, I have news."

Upon hearing the news, Su Yutang's heart instantly rose to her throat and she even held her breath.

Wen Xiaoman continued, "I just asked Qiao Siyue directly, and he admitted it himself. He sent people to kidnap Yanyan from the pirates!"

Although she had guessed it long ago, Su Yutang's heart still sank when she heard Xiaoman confirm it herself. She then asked excitedly, "So... Yanyan is really in his hands?"

Wen Xiaoman nodded affirmatively: "Well, he admitted it himself, so he can't be wrong. But I haven't seen Yanyan yet. The security of Modern Manor is very tight. I am not allowed to go to many areas. I don't know where Qiao Siyue hid Yanyan."

She paused, then comforted him, "But Tangtang, he just promised me that after I accompany him to try on wedding dresses tomorrow, he will take me to see Yanyan. Once I see Yanyan with my own eyes and confirm where Yanyan is being held, I will tell you immediately, or find a way to secretly bring her out and send her to you!"

Hearing this plan, Su Yutang's heart tightened, full of anticipation but also a little worried: "Xiaoman, this is too dangerous, you must be careful. If you can't do it, don't force it. Your safety is the most important!"

Wen Xiaoman felt Yutang's concern, and her heart warmed. She assured him, "Well, don't worry, I will act according to the circumstances and protect myself."

Soon, Su Yutang realized something and continued to ask, "Wait...trying on a wedding dress? You agreed to marry him as a condition for him to let you meet Yanyan, right?"

On the other end of the phone, Wen Xiaoman was silent for a moment, then covered it up with a casual tone: "This...is not important now. The most important thing right now is to help you find Yanyan first."

She hurriedly said, "I'll contact you if there is any situation," and hung up the phone.

Wen Xiaoman was on the phone and had no idea that on the circular terrace on the second floor not far away, a tall figure was leaning against the railing, gently shaking a wine glass in his hand. His deep gaze penetrated the noise and fell accurately on the girl who was whispering in the corner while covering her phone.

Qiao Siyue drank the remaining wine in the glass, with a cold and playful arc at the corner of his mouth.

His little fiancée was indeed too naive.

Did she think that her little actions could escape his eyes?

......

At this moment, the atmosphere in the car changed subtly after Wen Xiaoman's phone call.

Because they were on hands-free mode, Bo Jingzhou and Xiao Hengyu both heard it clearly.

Yanyan is indeed in Qiao Siyue's hands.

Xiao Hengyu calmly analyzed, "Since Qiao Siyue is willing to admit it and agree to let Wen Xiaoman meet Xiao Tangguo, it means he hasn't achieved his goal yet, or Xiao Tangguo is still useful to him. Before his goal is achieved, he won't easily harm Xiao Tangguo, so Xiao Tangguo is safe for the time being."

These words made Su Yutang, who had been extremely nervous, feel a little relieved, and her tense body relaxed.

Now that I know where my daughter is and that she's safe for now, what's next...

She leaned back in her chair and said calmly, "Next...we have to plan carefully how to cooperate with Xiaoman and rescue Yanyan."

The car drove back to the hotel where they were staying.

The four little ones were watching a video with their backs to the door, their four little heads gathered together, staring at the computer screen.

What was projected on the screen was little Ayan’s soft and cute face.

Erbao said to Xiao Ayan on the other end, "Xiao Ayan, we have great news for you. Your mommy is not dead, she is still alive!"

On the other side of the video, little Ayan blinked his big black and white eyes, his little face full of innocent confusion.

Mommy is already alive, I don’t know what my brothers are talking about.

At this moment, the little guy noticed the figure at the door with his sharp eyes, and immediately waved his little hands and called out in a baby voice: "Mommy~"

The four little babies turned their heads at the same time when they heard the sound. It turned out that their mommy had returned.

Erbao quickly corrected the screen: "Oh, little idiot, that's our mommy. Your mommy is someone else. Our mommy is not your mommy."

On the screen, when little Ayan heard these words, he frowned sadly and his little mouth pouted.

In little Ayan’s heart, his brothers’ mommy is his mommy.
