The richest man's parents were kidnapped, and his adorable son captivated the entire family.

"Ruolan, do you know how important Mengmeng is to our Gu family? I really can't calm down now." Gu Yinshen looked dejected.

He was already showing great restraint by not physically punishing Tian Tian, ​​the very person who had caused her disappearance. If it weren't for Ruolan protecting her, who knows what might have happened the moment she got out of the car.

“I know.” Ruolan stepped forward and hugged Gu Yinshen. “I’m also very worried about Mengmeng. So we need to find Mengmeng as soon as possible and not waste any more time on unnecessary things.”

As Gu Yinshen listened to Ruolan's words, he looked up and stared at her face.

"Yin Shen, I'll take Tian Tian back first. You should contact Shi Yu as soon as possible and see if he has any leads," Ruolan said.

"Okay." Gu Yinshen nodded his heavy head.

Sweetie could tell that Ruolan wouldn't agree to her staying to search for Mengmeng. While outwardly worried about her, she was actually more concerned about Mengmeng. Sweetie obediently got into the car, hoping only that the immortal would sense her situation and come to help her as soon as possible.

Inside the car, Ruolan stared intently at her phone, not uttering a single word.

"Mommy~" Sweetie called out.

"Sweetie, think carefully about what happened between you and Mengmeng after school that caused her to disappear." Ruolan said this without taking her eyes off her phone screen.

Sweetie felt both jealous and worried.

She no longer calls her "baby" anymore. Could it be that the effects of the pills given by the immortal are wearing off?

We need to get back to the Gu family as soon as possible and find an opportunity to give her another pill. Otherwise, if they find Mengmeng again soon, she'll be kicked out of the Gu family if she tells anyone.

"Sweetie?" Receiving no response, Ruolan turned to look at Sweetie, who was sitting in the chair lost in thought.

"Mom, let me think again," Tian Tian replied calmly.

Ruolan wasn't in the mood to care about her right now, so she nodded and went back to her phone.

She remembered the kindergarten's parent group chat; she was in the group, but had never commented.

I immediately opened WeChat and saw the class group at the top of the screen.

Hello teachers and parents, I'm Mengmeng's mother. Has any parent or teacher seen Mengmeng after school?

The message caused an immediate uproar in the group.

Everyone knows that Mengmeng is an adopted child of the Gu family, and everyone knows about the Gu family's situation. In particular, the news of Ruolan's death three years ago caused a great uproar in Jiangcheng. Gu Yinshen is still a virgin and has remained single for Ruolan's sake.

[Am I seeing things? She really is Mrs. Gu?]

As soon as the news spread, other parents started gossiping about it on the spot.

[The person in the profile picture is a real person, and it was taken with Mengmeng, so it can't be fake.]

But wasn't it already three years ago...?

Such a strange thing made the parents afraid to voice their doubts directly.

Upon seeing the chat content in the group, Teacher Yue immediately stepped in to maintain a positive atmosphere within the group.

[Good evening, parents. This group is for your convenience to stay informed about your children's progress. Please refrain from posting anything unrelated to your children. Regarding the question Mengmeng's mother just asked, if any parent has relevant information, please let us know. Thank you for your cooperation.]

After Teacher Moon posted the message, the group instantly fell silent.

Most parents who come to pick up their children only focus on their own child and don't spend extra energy on other children.

Looking at the now deathly silent crowd, Ruolan felt a tightness in her chest.

She had hoped to learn about Mengmeng's situation through other parents, but it seems that not only did she not get any news about Mengmeng, she also attracted the attention of others.

buzz~

My phone, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly vibrated.

Ruolan quickly opened her screen and saw a notification that a new friend had been added.

Seeing that she was added through a group chat, she clicked "accept" without hesitation. Watching the other person type, Ruolan felt a glimmer of hope.

[Hello, parent, did you see our Mengmeng after school?]

As soon as the message was sent, Ruolan nervously held her phone in both hands, silently praying in her heart.

[Hello, Mengmeng's mom. I'm Tangtang's dad. Our Tangtang and your Mengmeng are good friends at school. After school, Tangtang said Mengmeng was going home with her sister. But when we left the school gate, your two children weren't walking together. When I saw Mengmeng, she was anxiously looking for something, and then she walked towards the other side of the street.]

Looking at the message, Ruolan turned to look at Tiantian, who was staring out the window with a nonchalant expression.

She didn't understand why the two of them, who had agreed to go home together and were in the same classroom, didn't leave together.

Thank you. Please let me know as soon as your Tangtang remembers anything else.

【Will do. 】

After turning off her phone, Ruolan struggled internally for a long time before turning to ask, "Sweetie, do you really want to go home with Mengmeng?"

Sweetie turned to look at Ruolan's scrutinizing face, "Mom, do you also think I deliberately lost Mengmeng?"

Ruolan didn't think that way; she was just puzzled. Tian Tian always told them she wanted to get along well with Mengmeng and become close sisters. But her actions didn't show any sign of how good she was to Mengmeng.

Now, when she simply asked a question, she was questioned and accused of doubting her.

If she really didn't do such a thing, why would she immediately suspect that someone's simple inquiry meant they were doubting her?

Sweetie's gaze toward Ruolan grew increasingly serious, and her unease intensified.

The medication has completely lost its effectiveness?

“Mom, I really wanted to come back with Mengmeng. There were so many people at the school gate after school, and Mengmeng and I got separated by the crowd as we walked. As soon as we came out, I started looking for Mengmeng. But the adults rushed forward, and I was pushed to the very edge. In order to make sure Mengmeng could see me, I ran to the other side of the road where there were fewer people and waited for her.”

"and after?"

Ruolan pressed for an answer.

Sweetie choked up as she recounted, "Mengmeng saw me later, and we got back together. Then I noticed my brother hadn't come yet, and I got thirsty. Mengmeng said she would go buy me water, and I was worried that my brother wouldn't be able to find us when he arrived, so I agreed. But I waited and waited, and neither my brother nor Mengmeng came back."

Hearing Tian Tian's words, Ruolan felt a pang of guilt. She shouldn't have thought of a child, a child she had neglected for so many years, with an adult's perspective.

Ruolan reached out and hugged Tiantian.

Sweetie didn't refuse, and nestled in her arms, crying loudly, "Mommy, I'm really worried about Mengmeng, and I'm scared too."
