Suddenly, Xiao Jingting stood up and walked out of the room without saying a word.

He met Wen Lan outside the room and said in a deep voice, "Second Aunt, please take good care of her."

After saying that, he turned around and went downstairs, feeling cold all over.

Before the old lady downstairs could say anything, she only heard the sound of the engine starting outside the door. When she chased out, she didn't see even a shadow of the car.

Seeing that something was wrong, Song Huizhen quickly took out her cell phone and called the old man.

"Quick, call Xiao Hongshen and ask him to come back!"

Old Master Xiao hadn't reacted yet and asked in confusion, "Why are you calling Xiao Hongshen? Didn't you go to see your granddaughter-in-law? How is her health?"

Song Huizhen said anxiously: "Hurry up, if you don't hurry up, Jing Ting will have to go back to clean up the mess!"

They had known about what happened in Linzhou long ago and had sent a lawyer there long ago.

The Pang family of Linzhou is considered to be quite wealthy. Those playboys usually don't play around openly and are always eager for others to give them women. Who would have thought that Fu Runing would encounter this this time.

It is said that it was a coincidence, but who would believe it?

Given the relationship between Chen Ming and Weng Yuqing of Yusong Media, no one would believe that they have no ulterior motives.

Song Huizhen stayed at the Fu family for half a day. She went into the room to see Fu Runing. The child must have been very scared, or maybe she had a fever and couldn't sleep well.

The old lady touched her forehead and found that her temperature was still a little high. Her little face was pale and bloodless, which made her feel very distressed.

Wen Lan changed her sweaty clothes, poured her a cup of hot water, and planned to feed her some fever-reducing medicine.

"Ningning, please get up and take some medicine. You'll feel better after taking it."

Seeing this, the old lady took the cup and pills from Wen Lan and said softly, "I'll feed her, you help her up."

Fu Runing was carefully helped up from the bed by Wen Lan. She leaned on her second aunt's shoulder with her eyes slightly closed, her body trembling slightly.

The old lady put the pill into her mouth, and perhaps because she tasted the bitterness, she frowned tightly.

The old lady coaxed softly, "Come, Ningning, drink more water and take the medicine, and you'll be fine."

Fu Runing cooperated and drank two sips of water, then turned her head and refused to move again.

Wen Lan touched her face and let her lie down again.

Seeing how uncomfortable she was, Wen Lan couldn't help but have tears in his eyes.

"Ningning has been motherless since she was a child, so I always treat her as my own daughter. If she's feeling unwell, the men in the family will all feel uneasy."

Fu Jinbei is only a male chauvinist on the surface. When Ning Ning had a headache or fever when she was a child, he would rush back to see her even if he was out of town before driving away.

Not to mention Ningning's father, the same goes for her brother.

The old lady tucked in the corner of the quilt, feeling very complicated.

Fu Runing was mumbling something on the bed. The old lady heard it and came forward to ask softly, "Ningning, what do you want?"

Fu Runing closed her eyes tightly, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she repeated something in her mouth.

I listened carefully and heard clearly that she was repeating a name -

"Fu...Zheng...Fu Zheng..."

When Song Huizhen heard these two words, her eyes were full of pity, and she said softly: "Ningning, grandma will ask him to come back to accompany you right away. Go to sleep first and don't think about him."

Fu Runing closed her eyes and murmured, "No... He won't come back..."

There is no such person as Fu Zheng anymore.

……

Song Huizhen walked out of the room and immediately received a call from home.

"Old lady, something happened at home, please come back soon."

Upon hearing this, Song Huizhen rushed home in a hurry.

Xiyuan.

Xiao Hongshen returned home furious. There were a dozen bodyguards standing in the hall, each with their heads lowered and not daring to say a word.

"Tell me, how did the person disappear?"

One of the bodyguards said tremblingly, "Yes...it was the young master who took the lady away...Originally, the lady was going to a friend's house for a small gathering today, but her car was stopped by the young master's car on the way. The lady brought two bodyguards with her, and the young master brought a lot of people, and then the lady was taken away by the young master..."

Xiao Hongshen kicked the chair next to him in anger, "Where is Xiao Jingting?"

"We chased after him but didn't catch him, so we hurried back to let you know..."

If this was an ordinary missing or kidnapping case, I would have called the police immediately, but this was a family member kidnapping a family member, and I couldn't call the police even if I had ten guts.

"A bunch of trash."

Xiao Qinrui was crying beside him, "Dad, where did big brother take mom? Please go and find him quickly. Mom is always kind to big brother, how could he do such a thing?"

Xiao Hongshen looked at his bodyguards coldly, "Why are you still standing there? Go out and look for him!"

Song Huizhen came back from outside and saw a group of bodyguards walking out.

She pretended to know nothing and asked, "What happened? Why is there such a big scene?"

Xiao Hong was furious. "That good grandson of yours did something so bad. He's become so capable that he kidnapped his aunt."

The old lady was surprised and said, "Oh, this can't be a kidnapping, what if he's just inviting people for tea? Why are you making such a fuss?"

Xiao Qinrui cried and said, "Grandma, you are partial to my eldest brother. You always speak on his behalf. Can my eldest brother have tea with my mother?"

The old lady remained calm and asked, "Then why did Jing Ting look for her? There must be something wrong, right?"

Xiao Qinrui fell silent, then immediately continued, "How would I know his reason? Big Brother has never been close to us. He's only been back for a few years, but he doesn't respect me and my mom, let alone my dad. He just doesn't like our family..."

Song Huizhen's voice was a little stern, "Ruirui, please be careful with your words."

Xiao Qinrui stepped aside and dared not say another word.

The old man and the old lady had made a strict rule that no one should discuss Xiao Jingting's background.

I couldn't get through to Xiao Jingting's phone. I called everyone one by one, but he didn't answer.

Waited for another half an hour or so.

The old lady leisurely picked up her phone and called Xiao Jingting.

In full view of everyone, the call actually went through.

Xiao Hongshen was filled with anger, "Let him go back!"

The old lady ignored him and said to Xiao Jingting on the other end of the phone in a gentle voice, "Jingting, where did you invite your aunt to have tea? It's time, come back soon. Ningning is waiting for you too. She calls your name in her dreams. When you're done with your business, go back and keep her company."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, and after a long while, he only replied with the word "OK".

Half an hour later.

Xiao Jingting returned to Xiyuan. He walked into the hall calmly. He was not wearing a coat, only a white shirt and black trousers, looking cold and sharp.

He came closer and could see that the cuffs of his white shirt were stained with blood.

Like a beast whose reverse scale has been touched, his usually hidden dark side is completely revealed.

Xiao Hongshen was furious when he saw him like this, "Xiao Jingting, where did you take your aunt? You are so lawless and have no respect for your elders. Let her go!"

Xiao Jingting's face was expressionless, and he said in a calm tone: "I had something to do with my aunt's cousin, but I couldn't find him, so I asked my aunt to come over."

Xiao Hongshen didn't believe this nonsense at all and was about to get angry, but he saw Old Man Xiao put away his fishing rod and came out of the house.

The old man tutted, "Wow, it's lively."

Then the old man and the old lady sat down at the main table, looking like they were there to watch the fun.

Xiao Hongshen looked at his parents speechlessly and drank a sip of water in anger.

"What do you want with her cousin?"

Xiao Jingting uttered three words, neither lightly nor heavily, "Destroy him."

Xiao Hongshen was slightly stunned. For a moment, he seemed to not recognize his son. He looked very strange, yet there was a sense of familiarity.

"What deep hatred?"

Xiao Jingting stood tall, his eyes deep and cold as he spoke word by word, "Insulting my wife."

Everyone present understood what he was up to today.

He was establishing his authority and also issuing a warning.

Xiao Jingting was certain that this matter was related to Weng Yuqing, and he was certain that it was.

He threw out a file bag and said, "Since Yusong Media is a subsidiary of the Xiao Corporation, it shouldn't be a big deal if I fire a parasite."

"There has been an ongoing pattern of improper bribery transactions that have harmed the company's interests."

Everyone in Yusong Media knows that Chen Ming is Weng Yuqing's dog, and his actions are usually instructed by Weng Yuqing.

Xiao Hongshen listened to this official rhetoric and said, "He's just a vice president. Just fire him. His affairs have nothing to do with your aunt. Where did you take her?"

Xiao Jingting said coldly: "When my wife recovers, she will come back naturally."

Xiao Qinrui got anxious when she heard this, "Dad, look at my eldest brother. What did Mom do to him? What does my eldest sister-in-law's accident in Linzhou have to do with my mom? My mom has never left Shengzhou."

Xiao Hongshen was about to lose his temper again when the old lady suddenly said on her cell phone, "Jingting, Ningning called me."

Xiao Jingting's eyes seemed to suddenly warm up because of these words.

The old lady answered the phone, "Ning Ning, you're looking for Jing Ting. I'll give him the phone."

The old lady came over and handed the phone to Xiao Jingting, and gave him a wink, saying that it was almost done.

Xiao Jingting looked at the page where he was talking on a call and put the phone to his ear.

He didn't say anything, but as if by some kind of induction, Fu Runing's voice came from the other end of the phone -

"Don't be impulsive. They are your family after all. It's not good to make things awkward. It's not worth it."

She meant to say that it wasn't worth it for her.

Xiao Jingting asked back, "Are you well?"

Fu Runing was stunned, "No..."

"Then get more sleep and recuperate, and don't meddle in other people's business."

Fu Runing shut up. Okay, she was just meddling in other people's business.
