After the divorce, I trained my dog, and the scumbag father and son knelt down at my door.

"No, Aunt Zhang, I...I have something to say..."

Yunyun was getting a little anxious.

However, when all three adults in the room looked at her, the little girl suddenly became nervous again.

My palms were sweaty.

My mind goes blank.

She originally wanted to say that Xiaojun had told her where he was going before he left, and that Nian Nian's mother must be there too.

But at that moment, she was so nervous that she couldn't say a word.

"Alright, Yunyun!"

Zhang Xintong felt a headache coming on, and her tone became a little harsher.

This child used to be quite sensible, what's wrong with him today?

Why would someone come here to cause trouble at a time like this?

Zhang Xintong got up and walked over to Yunyun, grabbed her shoulder and pushed her away, saying, "Yunyun, you are the most sensible. The adults are already annoyed enough at this time."

"You can't make things worse."

"do you know?"

Yunyun was directly pushed out of the room by her.

"Hoo!" Zhuo Yuchen took a deep breath, trying to expel the frustration in his heart.

but……

But failed.

At this moment, it felt as if a heavy stone was pressing on his chest, making it difficult to breathe and leaving him feeling restless and helpless.

I'm going out for some fresh air!

After giving a hoarse explanation, Zhuo Yuchen turned and walked out.

……

Zhuo Yuchen came to the courtyard.

He roughly ripped off his tie and plopped down on the steps.

Feeling lost and disappointed!

Then, feeling irritable, Zhuo Yuchen took out a cigarette, intending to light it and take a few puffs.

but……

My fingertips trembled, and I tried several times without success.

"Ha!" Zhuo Yuchen gave a bitter laugh, feeling even more annoyed.

With a forceful flick, he threw the cigarette and lighter onto the ground.

Concern leads to chaos.

He wanted to go find Niannian himself, but the situation was unclear.

Now he dares not venture into the village alone, fearing it might endanger Yan Niannian; he is truly caught in a dilemma.

"Uncle Zhuo!" Suddenly, a child's voice rang in my ears.

Zhuo Yuchen subconsciously looked up.

It was still that child, Yunyun.

After Zhang Xintong kicked her out of the dormitory, she not only didn't leave, but also stood in front of her.

At this moment, she bit her lip tightly, her face flushed red.

His anxious and conflicted expression made it seem as if he had finally mustered up the courage.

Zhuo Yuchen gave her a deep look, then narrowed his eyes thoughtfully.

He remembered the child.

Niannian treated her very well, and she also liked to stick close to Yan Niannian.

Moreover, I've always been very good at judging people.

Although she is introverted and timid, she is overly sensible and is by no means an ungrateful child.

Could it be that she knows something?

"Yunyun, come here!" Zhuo Yuchen beckoned to Yunyun, trying to make his voice sound gentler.

Yunyun walked towards him.

Taking her little hand, Zhuo Yuchen asked again, "Yunyun, what do you want to tell your uncle?"

"I know where Xiaojun went!" Yunyun, who was also worried about Yan Niannian, finally mustered up the courage to say these words.

"Really?" Zhuo Yuchen's eyes lit up.

"Yes!" Yunyun nodded. "Xiaojun told me that before he left."

"Tell your uncle quickly!" Zhuo Yuchen asked anxiously.

"Xiao Jun said he would go to his grandfather's village with his father. There is a big river behind their hometown, Sanjiazi Village."

“Cross the river and go up the mountain, go down the cliff behind the redwood trees, and then follow the path all the way to his grandfather’s village.”

Upon hearing this, Zhuo Yuchen stood up abruptly.

His face was full of excitement.

No wonder the two people the assistant sent to Sanjiazi to investigate couldn't even catch a glimpse of He Baoli.

It turns out they took Niannian to such a remote place.

With a great river, cliffs, and narrow paths, they would have had no chance of finding their way if Yunyun hadn't told them the route herself.

Zhuo Yuchen's reaction was so intense that Yunyun was frightened. She subconsciously took a step back, her face filled with terror.

Did I do something wrong?

Her movement drew Zhuo Yuchen's attention back to her.

He quickly walked up to her, squatted down, and pulled Yunyun into his arms.

"Yunyun, thank you!" Zhuo Yuchen's low, hoarse voice trembled slightly; he was truly grateful to the child.

Sensing Zhuo Yuchen's goodwill, Yunyun's tense expression gradually relaxed.

"Uncle, you'll definitely be able to rescue Niannian's mother, right?" Yunyun asked softly, resting her chin on Zhuo Yuchen's shoulder.

"Definitely! Uncle will definitely rescue Nian Nian's mother!"

Releasing Yunyun, Zhuo Yuchen solemnly assured her.

At the same time, he gently patted her head.

With a direction in mind, the anxiety that had been hanging in the balance finally eased a little.

This time, Zhuo Yuchen decided to personally rescue Yan Niannian.

……

On the other hand, Dong Yan took a shortcut to save time when she arrived.

The car stopped at the back gate of the orphanage.

Backtrack.

As soon as Dong Yan stepped into the back playground, someone called out to her from behind, "Mrs. Dong, please wait a moment!"

Dong Yan stopped walking.

She turned her head and glanced back.

He was a man in his thirties wearing a baseball cap.

Dong Yan was certain that she did not know him.

"Who are you?" Dong Yan asked, puzzled.

The man in the baseball cap approached her. "Mrs. Dong, I'm a volunteer here to help out at the orphanage."

"Here's the thing, there's something I'd like to ask Mrs. Dong for a favor!"

Upon hearing this, Dong Yan practically rolled her eyes to the sky.

The other person looks like a penniless wretch.

And what is her identity?

There is an inequality in social classes.

You actually want her help?

What are you thinking?

"No time!" With undisguised sarcasm and disdain on her face, Dong Yan arrogantly threw down these two sentences and turned to leave.

"It's about Yan Niannian!" the man in the baseball cap hurriedly added.

"Ok?"

The name "Yan Niannian" seemed to possess some kind of magical power; upon hearing it, Dong Yan subconsciously stopped in her tracks.

She couldn't help but turn around and raise an eyebrow, "What's wrong with her?"

The man in the baseball cap had a serious expression.

He leaned closer and said, "Mrs. Dong, let me tell you, Yan Niannian has no good intentions in managing the orphanage."

"She used the orphanage as a cover, but secretly she was doing all sorts of shady things."

"I discovered it by accident."

"But I have no power or influence and am completely unable to expose her crimes. That's why I want to ask Madam Dong to take charge and uphold justice."

Upon hearing this, Dong Yan immediately became interested. "Oh? Tell me quickly, what bad thing did she do?"

"This..." The man in the baseball cap looked around a few times, appearing cryptic, "It's not convenient to talk about it here."

"Here's what we'll do, Mrs. Dong. The evidence is in the basement of the southwest corner warehouse. I'll take you there, and you'll understand as soon as you see it."

"Okay, I'll go with you."

Dong Yan agreed without the slightest hesitation.

She wanted to seize on Yan Niannian's weakness so that her son would completely despise her and leave her with a lasting stain on his reputation.

May she die in unease.

only……

As Dong Yan followed, she didn't notice the vicious smirk on the man's lips.
