half thorns, half joy

Lin Qiaoer drove the car distractedly, her brain was running fast, thinking about what to do next.

Instead of going back along the road, she detoured to another remote street. After crossing half of the city, she parked the car in a deserted alley, dragged Cai Jinyu out of the car, and threw it on the side of the road.

Seeing Cai Jinyu, who was completely unconscious, not at all as proud and elated as before, Lin Qiaoer felt relieved.

She sneered, and kicked Cai Jinyu hard a few times.

Lin Qiaoer was wearing women's small leather shoes with a pointed toe. After kicking her a few times, Cai Jinyu flinched in response, even if she didn't realize it.

"Just lie down. If anything happens here, it has nothing to do with me." Lin Qiaoer finished speaking to Cai Jinyu, returned to the car, and drove away.

After crying at the top of his voice for an hour, the baby was already tired from crying, and was currently sniffling and sobbing intermittently.

Lin Qiaoer glared at the baby in the passenger seat angrily, drove around a few streets, found an underground garage, parked the car in the garage, then got out of the car with the child, took a taxi and went around a few streets, Picked an inconspicuous looking hotel.

Hotels on the edge of the city are not like hotels in the center of the city. Inspections are not strict, especially since there are several bad schools nearby. The hotels are full of young male and female students of various ages, and the law and order is particularly chaotic.

"One hundred." The receptionist at the front desk of the hotel didn't even look at Lin Qiaoer's ID card carefully, and quickly collected the money to open the room, and threw a room card to Lin Qiaoer, "Go upstairs, the second floor."

"Thank you..." Lin Qiaoer breathed a sigh of relief, carrying the child upstairs.

Finding the room, opening the door and entering, putting the child on the bed, Lin Qiaoer let out a long breath.

After tossing around for so long, she was terribly tired.

After a few minutes of delay, Lin Qiaoer called Qian Susu and told Qian Susu that her side had settled down, and the next thing was for Qian Susu to call Xiao Zihan.

Qian Susu said that she knew about it, so she hung up the phone.

At this time, it was already dark outside, the street lights were turned on, and the barbecue stalls downstairs were crowded with more people. The deafening local music, accompanied by the smell of barbecue, entered the hotel room.

Lin Qiaoer sniffed and realized that she was hungry.

She was not the only one who was hungry, the child was also hungry, and cried loudly again.

Compared with the previous one in the car, this place is inherently noisy, so the loud and uninterrupted crying of the child will not attract people's attention.

Lin Qiaoer sat alone for a while, pulled back the quilt on the bed to surround the child, then pulled out the key card and went out the door.

She has to get something to eat.

I don't know how far this matter will happen today. She can't fight on an empty stomach like this.

Lin Qiaoer was mentally nervous and frightened. In order to relieve the tension, she went downstairs and ordered dozens of skewers of barbecue and two bottles of beer. She sat in the dirty booth that she had never sat in before and ate everything. .

Then, she went to the supermarket not far away to buy a bag of milk powder and a few bottles of mineral water, and returned to the hotel.

Opening the door of the hotel room, Lin Qiaoer saw that the child had fallen to the ground and was crying loudly.

"It's really annoying." Lin Qiaoer looked at the child whose face was flushed from crying, felt a little compassion, stepped forward and quickly picked up the child, put it on the bed again, and helped the child to calm down again and again .

It took a long time for the child to catch his breath and whimper softly.

"Okay, don't cry. I'll get you something to eat." Lin Qiaoer held the milk powder bag and deliberately shook it in front of the baby.

The baby seemed to understand, and suddenly stopped crying, blinking his big eyes, biting his fingers and staring at the milk powder bag.

"I finally stopped crying. I was so exhausted from crying." Lin Qiaoer sighed, poured the milk powder into the mineral water bottle, shook it carelessly, and poured it into the baby's mouth.

The baby had never drank milk like this before, and suddenly choked all over his face.

In a hurry, I cried again.

After Tang Xuan gave birth to this child, she has been taking care of it meticulously. For so long, she has never made the child suffer like this for a moment.

The child is also squeamish, not used to being treated roughly like this, and kicked Lin Qiaoer with his hands and feet.

As for Lin Qiaoer, because this was Tang Xuan's child, she didn't want to take good care of her at first, but now that she was being kicked, she also got angry, and directly stuffed the child under the quilt, only showing her head, staring at the child fiercely.

"Don't you fucking cry!"

The child sniffed, "Wow—" cried louder.

Lin Qiaoer: "..."

……

Cai Jinyu on the other side was lying on the side of the road in a daze, recovering consciousness bit by bit.

"Tang... Xuan..." His eyeballs moved under his eyelids as he struggled to call out Tang Xuan's name.

There is a voice in his heart telling him that he must wake up immediately, and there are extremely important things waiting for him to do.

But the head seems to have been hit hard, and the body is also soft, neither the consciousness nor the body can exert force.

At this moment, several students ran over talking and laughing.

A boy was running in front, and the others were chasing after him.

"It's enough for you, isn't it just that I won? I'm willing to bet and admit defeat, you guys." The boy who ran in front panted and said back while sprinting.

"Stop! Did you win? You're a rascal!" The boy chasing behind shouted, obviously not convinced.

"You are the fools, obviously I won, I—ah!" The boy didn't see someone under his feet, and was caught off guard and tripped.

The boy from behind chased him up, but before he could catch the boy who was chasing him, his attention was first attracted by Cai Jinyu who was lying on the ground.

"Hold the grass, what the hell is this..." One of the boys stopped and looked at Cai Jinyu who was on the ground while holding his knees.

"Could it be a dead person?" said a bold and imaginative boy, stretched out his foot and kicked Cai Jinyu.

Cai Jinyu let out a hum from his nose, and moved his eyelids again.

"Hold the grass!" Several boys backed away in fright.

"What should I do?" The boys looked at each other, losing their minds for a while, "Leave it alone, what if I die."

"It's none of our business to die, and we didn't do anything."

"No one said anything, you kicked me just now!" One of the most stable-looking boys took out his mobile phone and said with a serious face: "Let's call the police."

"Yes, call the police and call 110."

Ten minutes later, the police car roared up.

The boys watched the police carry Cai Jinyu, who was still unresponsive, into the car. Hearing the police's praise, they raised their heads proudly.

"I didn't expect that we could save a life."

"Tch, if I didn't fall down, where would you have this opportunity?"

The boys walked away chattering and chattering, because of this unexpected incident, they completely forgot about the previous dispute.

And Cai Jinyu in the car, after going through all this, finally opened his eyes with all his strength.

"Hey, are you awake?" The policeman frowned, staring at Cai Jinyu as if examining a prisoner.

Cai Jinyu opened her mouth with difficulty, took a breath of air, and gasped, "Save...save...Tang Xuan."

The police didn't hear clearly, so they approached Cai Jinyu and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Huh..." Cai Jinyu had no strength and closed her eyes again.

Seeing Cai Jinyu's appearance, the police thought that Cai Jinyu was taking drugs or some kind of shady street gangster, and said angrily, "When you get to the police station, you can make a record."

Cai Jinyu bit the tip of his tongue hard, the pain brought him back a little bit of sobriety.

"Save people..." Cai Jinyu took out his mobile phone from his trousers pocket with great difficulty, half-closed his eyes, and was about to make a call.

Seeing this, the police immediately snatched the phone from Cai Jinyu's hand.

"what are you doing?"

"Call...Call Xiao Zihan..." Cai Jinyu gasped for breath, "Xiao Zihan... Xiao Group..."

The Xiao Group is very famous in City A, and almost everyone knows about it. The policeman heard this, and his attitude immediately became serious.

"Who are you?" the policeman asked Cai Jinyu with a sullen face.

"Xiao Zihan's friend." Cai Jinyu slowly recovered his strength, he closed his eyes, as if thinking of something, he didn't finish his sentence.

The police car stopped at the entrance of the police station, and the police helped Cai Jinyu out of the car.

No drugs were detected on Cai Jinyu's body, obviously not because of drug use, but he was surprised by the detection of ether.

"I told you, I was dizzy." After Cai Jinyu regained her strength, she asked for her phone back emotionally, "I want to call my friend."

"Fight, just hit here. Although the police verified Cai Jinyu's identity, they were more thoughtful seeing Cai Jinyu's flustered expression and unclear words.

Cai Jinyu had no choice but to beat him in front of the police.

After the bell rang several times, Xiao Zihan didn't answer the phone.

Hearing Xiao Zihan's voice, Cai Jinyu hurriedly asked, "Xiao Zihan! Has Tang Xuan returned home yet?"

"Tang Xuan? Isn't she with you?" Xiao Zihan said unhappily after returning home, "I wanted to contact you just now. Where did you take Tang Xuan?"

"So...Tang Xuan hasn't returned yet?" Cai Jinyu's face paled instantly.

Xiao Zihan heard something wrong in Cai Jinyu's words, and asked Cai Jinyu, "What's the matter, Tang Xuan isn't with you?"

Cai Jinyu looked up at the policeman who was staring at him closely. Knowing that she couldn't hide it any longer, she gritted her teeth and replied, "Tang Xuan and the child were taken away by Lin Qiaoer. There is also a woman I don't know."

"What did you say?" Xiao Zihan was shocked.

Cai Jinyu glanced at the clock on the table and said sadly: "It happened more than two hours ago. I was stunned by them. I just woke up. I..."

"Where are you now?" On the other side of the phone, Xiao Zihan's hurried footsteps could be heard.

"I... am at the police station now."

Cai Jinyu originally planned to tell Xiao Zihan about this first, and then see if he should call the police.

But right now it seems he can't do that anymore, Tang Xuan and the child are missing, so he can't take the risk.

Cai Jinyu gritted her teeth, gave the address directly in front of the police, and said, "That woman brought a knife, and I saw a scar on her face, and we got into Lin Qiaoer's car at No. 11 Linlan Road. Check it out."

Sure enough, when Cai Jinyu finished saying this sentence, the policeman's eyes, which were originally watching the show, instantly stared straight.
