Love is a mistake that cannot be escaped

In the dim light, the little boy was tied to a dilapidated chair, his mouth was taped shut, his face was flushed red, and tears of fear kept streaming down his face.

Du Yue and Lin Jiaojiao, these two vicious women, stood triumphantly in front of him, holding gleaming knives and threatening his safety.

"You two vicious women, let go of the cute child!"

I was furious and rushed forward to fight them, but Gu Yichen grabbed me.

He calmly surveyed his surroundings and said in a deep voice, "Leave this to me, you go find Mengwa."

I nodded, walked around them, ran to the little boy, and carefully peeled off the tape from his mouth.

"Don't be afraid, little one, Auntie is here."

I gently held him in my arms. His little hands clung tightly to my neck, and his body was still trembling.

"Want to save him? Not so easy!"

Du Yue sneered and gave a wink to the burly men in black behind her, "Attack!"

Gu Yichen's eyes sharpened, and he charged into the crowd like a cheetah, his fists and feet flying like the wind, each move deadly. After a few rounds, several burly men fell to the ground, howling in pain.

Seeing that things were going badly, Lin Jiaojiao grabbed a chair and hurled it at me. I was holding the baby and couldn't dodge in time. Just as I was about to be hit, Gu Yichen flew over and blocked the blow for me.

"Yi Chen!"

I gasped in surprise, and then I saw him groan and a trickle of blood escape from the corner of his mouth.

I was immediately heartbroken and even more worried.

"Don't worry, I'm fine." He gave me a reassuring look, then stared intently at Du Yue and Lin Jiaojiao. "None of you will escape today!"

Just then, a rapid siren sounded from afar, growing closer and closer until it finally stopped at the factory gate.

"Police! Don't move!" A group of police officers rushed into the factory, led by Officer Zhang, who had helped us last time.

"Quick! Catch them!"

I pointed at Du Yue and Lin Jiaojiao and shouted loudly.

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Du Yue and Lin Jiaojiao still tried to put up a fight, but they were eventually subdued by the police and put in cold handcuffs.

As the police car sped away, my tense nerves finally relaxed, my legs went weak, and I almost collapsed to the ground.

Gu Yichen quickly caught me and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"

I shook my head, fighting back tears, and looked at the adorable child who had been rescued.

Although he was frightened, he did not cry or make a fuss. He just timidly hid behind Officer Zhang, his big eyes filled with unease and fear.

"Cute little one, come to Auntie's."

I reached out my hand to him, my voice as gentle as if I were handling a fragile treasure.

He hesitated for a moment, looked at me, then at Gu Yichen, and finally slowly walked up to me, softly calling out, "Auntie." My heart melted instantly, and I hugged him tightly, as if I wanted to meld him into my very bones.

"It's alright, it's all over now." I reassured her repeatedly, and only when I felt the little body in my arms gradually relax did my heart slowly calm down.

"Thanks to you this time, if you hadn't discovered the clue in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable."

Officer Zhang patted Gu Yichen on the shoulder, his tone full of praise. Gu Yichen smiled faintly, his gaze falling on me and the little girl, his eyes softening: "I just did what I was supposed to do."

On the way home, the little girl held my and Gu Yichen's hands tightly the whole time, refusing to let go.

I know that this tragedy has left a shadow on his young heart, but he is stronger and more sensible than I imagined.

He no longer clings to me like before; instead, he will affectionately hug Gu Yichen's arm and call him "Uncle" in a childish voice.

Looking at the adorable child's innocent smile, Gu Yichen and I exchanged a smile.

We all know that after going through this ordeal, our relationship has become closer and we cherish each other even more.

The road ahead is long, and there may be storms, but we will face them together and give our little one a home full of love and warmth.

Back home, the little one quickly fell asleep on the sofa, her face still wet with tears, which was heartbreaking.

Gu Yichen and I gently carried him to the room and covered him with a blanket.

"Thanks to Mingxuan's help, we were able to find the cute baby so quickly this time."

I sighed softly, my heart filled with gratitude.

Gu Yichen nodded, a hint of appreciation flashing in his deep eyes: "Mingxuan has indeed grown a lot. He's no longer the impulsive young man he used to be."

"Yes, and Yichen also helped a lot." I thought of Gu Yichen, the boy who had always lived in his brother's shadow. This time, he showed his courage and responsibility, and I couldn't help but look at him with new respect.

"He has always worked very hard, he just lacks an opportunity to prove himself."

Gu Yichen's tone carried a hint of relief. I knew he always cared about his younger brother and hoped he could forge his own path.

"By the way, how are Du Yue and Lin Jiaojiao doing?"

I suddenly remembered the two culprits, and a surge of anger welled up inside me.

"They are suspected of multiple crimes and have been formally arrested by the police."

Gu Yichen's tone was icy, devoid of any warmth.

"That's good. Evil people will get their just desserts. They will finally pay the price for their actions."

I breathed a sigh of relief; a huge weight had been lifted from my shoulders.

"Don't worry, I will make sure they get the punishment they deserve."

Gu Yichen grasped my hand, his eyes firm and strong, as if he were making a promise to me, or as if he were making a commitment to himself.

Looking at his resolute profile, I felt a sense of security.

I know that with him around, my child and I will be safe and happy.

In the future, our family of three will definitely get better and better.

The morning sunlight streamed through the curtains into the room, casting dappled shadows on the floor.

I opened my eyes and saw the adorable baby lying beside my bed, gently stroking my cheek with her little hand, a sweet smile on her lips.

Good morning, Mom!

He spoke in a childish voice, his clear eyes seemingly filled with sunshine.

"good morning Baby."

I gently kissed his forehead, and a warm feeling welled up inside me.

During this time, our family of three felt as if we had returned to a peaceful harbor after a storm.

After finishing his company business, Gu Yichen declined all social engagements and devoted himself to spending time with me and the baby.

We went to the amusement park, the zoo, and the beach to build sandcastles together, spending many happy times together.

The adorable child gradually emerged from the shadow of being kidnapped, and a bright smile returned to her face.

Watching him and Gu Yichen chase and play on the grass, I felt an unprecedented sense of happiness and contentment.

However, a peaceful life is always short-lived.

That evening, Gu Yichen received a mysterious phone call, and his expression became unusually serious.

He hurriedly left the room, leaving me and the little one in the living room.

"what happened?"

I felt a vague unease in my heart.

"It's nothing, just some company business. I'll go to the study to take care of it."

His tone was calm, but his eyes betrayed a hint of panic.

Although I was worried, I didn't ask too many questions and could only watch him walk into the study and close the door.

A strange unease welled up inside me; I had a feeling that something was about to happen.

I walked to the study door, hesitated for a moment, and finally knocked gently.

"Yichen, are you alright?"

"I'm fine, I'll be alright soon, you should go to sleep."

His voice sounded somewhat tired.

I went back to my room, but I just couldn't fall asleep.

The image of Gu Yichen's expression when he answered the phone kept replaying in her mind, making her increasingly uneasy.

Suddenly, a strange sound came from the study, as if someone was rummaging through something.

I sat bolt upright, my heart pounding in my chest...
