It was already the evening of the next day when Lin Chaoci woke up.

She was still confused.

If she hadn't seen the familiar room layout and the pile of dolls placed on the bay window, she would have felt like she was dreaming.

A shameful nightmare that I can't wake up from!

I don’t know if Xu Qing and Lin Chaoci have a feeling of mother-son affection or something else.

Just as Lin Chaoci sat up, the door to the room was pushed open from the outside.

Lin Chaoci instinctively pulled the quilt to cover his neck, and looked at the person who opened the door in panic. When he saw it was Xu Qing, his worries were relieved.

"Mother……"

The hoarse voice was dry as she had just woken up. Lin Chaoci felt uncomfortable hearing it, not to mention Xu Qing, who had been waiting for her to wake up.

Xu Qing, whose face was full of distress, placed the ginseng soup she was holding on a low stool beside her.

She stared lovingly at the spiritless Lin Chaoci, walked to the bed, stretched out her hand to touch her tired little face, and said softly, "Don't talk yet, I asked Aunt Yu to stew it to moisten her throat and refresh her mind." Let’s drink some ginseng soup first.”

Lin Chaoci also knew that he was not suitable to speak now.

He obediently took the ginseng soup from Xu Qing and drank it, soothing her with his eyes, telling her that it was okay and letting her relax.

Looking at Lin Chaoci who was so sensible, Xu Qing couldn't help but get her eyes wet when she thought of what happened at the Lin family's old house last night.

How could she be okay!

Being kidnapped suddenly, a girl must be so scared and helpless!

I still don’t know what kind of crime she suffered from the kidnappers. After sleeping for so long, her face is still pale and she is exhausted, not to mention her spirit.

Xu Qing just sat quietly, watching Lin Chaoci sip the ginseng soup.

She didn't dare to ask anything, for fear that if... something bad happened, it would bring back bad memories for her.

After receiving Qian Jiuyuan's call last night, Xu Qing rushed back without stopping, regardless of Lin Xiongtian's gloomy expression.

Sitting in the living room, waiting and waiting.

Waiting for the two of them to come back.

It wasn't until the sky turned white that he saw Qian Jiuyuan walking into the house holding Lin Chaoci.

At first glance, I was shocked by what they were wearing.

Before Xu Qing could ask anything, Qian Jiuyuan made a silent gesture.

Because he was holding Lin Chaoci in his arms, she seemed to be sleeping very uneasily. Xu Qing did not dare to disturb her, so she could only watch as he carried Lin Chaoci upstairs to his room.

Seeing Lin Chaoci's return, Xu Qing's worries were relieved, but the problem was not yet clear.

So what happened? Who kidnapped Lin Chaoci? How did Qian Jiuyuan find her and rescue her? Another point is, why were the two of them wearing bathrobes instead of their own clothes?

Various questions circulated in Xu Qing's mind.

Without an answer, she could never feel completely reassured.

Xu Qing wanted to go up and ask about the situation, but the door was closed tightly. She wanted to knock on the door several times and get in, but she was afraid...

Standing outside the door, hesitating.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for Qian Jiuyuan to come out.

Before Xu Qing could speak, Qian Jiuyuan seemed to have anticipated what she was going to say, and motioned the two of them to go downstairs and said not to disturb Lin Chaoci.

Xu Qing naturally agreed, and just came downstairs. Qian Jiuyuan had no intention of saying anything, and plunged into the kitchen without knowing what to do.

This made Xu Qing so angry that she chased him into the kitchen to question him.

Qian Jiuyuan didn't know what to say to Xu Qing.

He didn't expect Xu Qing to come back. It looked like she had been sitting in the living room all night.

"Mom, there are some things I can't say. When Chaochao wakes up, you can ask her if she is okay!"

"I'm going to make food for Chaocha first, in case she wakes up later and is hungry. Chaocha suffered a lot of frights yesterday, and she can't sleep peacefully until now. When she's well rested, you can go see her again, okay? good!"

Qian Jiuyuan knew that Xu Qing really cared for Lin Chaoci, and his attitude and tone towards her were respectful and humility.

What Xu Qing wanted to ask was blocked by Qian Jiuyuan. She also thought that it was inconvenient to ask him some questions, and saw that he turned around and continued what he was doing before. He was busy with Lin Chaoci's favorite food, so he did not get to the bottom of it. The bottom one continued to ask.

She didn't sleep well last night. Now that she saw Lin Chaoci and Qian Jiuyuan came back safely, her energy also collapsed.

Xu Qing was about to go back to her room to catch up on her sleep when she saw Aunt Yu leading several men in police uniforms in.

"Madam, these police said they wanted to ask my uncle about something."

The police came to the door early in the morning, and Aunt Yu looked nervous and panicked.

Xu Qing's expression wasn't much better. She glanced at the policemen in front of her and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

"Sorry, we are here to see Qian Jiuyuan. Is he at home?"

"What do you want from him?" Xu Qing asked, raising her eyebrows.

A slightly younger policeman asked in a bad tone, "Who are you Qian Jiuyuan?"

This made Xu Qing, who didn't want to admit that Qian Jiuyuan was her son-in-law, choked.

She immediately turned cold and said with a bit of arrogance in her tone, "Do you know where this is? Do you know who I am? Breaking in without permission, I think you don't want to do it anymore!"

Although the Lin family is a third-rate family in Jiang City, it is considered one of the best in Xicheng District and has a certain status and voice.

The young policeman was shocked by Xu Qing's sudden display of aura. The older policeman beside him had seen the world and knew the wives, ladies and young men of various aristocratic families in Xicheng District.

Xu Qing, of course he knew.

They all came to the door, how could they not know which aristocratic family they were entering?

But they were just following orders.

The older policeman said with a smile, "Mrs. Lin, we are also under orders."

As he spoke, he took out his police card and arrest documents.

"Look, we are doing things in accordance with the law, please don't stop us."

Xu Qing took the documents and checked them one by one, and then looked at the arrest document. It was clearly Qian Jiuyuan.

What on earth did he do? What law was broken again?

Xu Qing wanted to take a closer look, but was taken back.

"Mrs. Lin, please don't hinder our work, otherwise... we will arrest you on suspicion of harboring the suspect and obstructing our work."

The words were so serious that Xu Qing did not dare to say anything anymore.

At this time, Qian Jiuyuan happened to come out of the kitchen.

Lin Chaoci's breakfast has been prepared and she only needs to wait for her to wake up before eating.

I don't know when she woke up, but Qian Jiuyuan's heart had already rushed to Lin Chaoci.

I just left for a while and I missed her.

All he wanted now was to guard her, wait for her to wake up, and then follow her every step of the way.

Fortunately nothing happened this time, what if!

He can't afford this eventuality!

Not even ten thousand!

The police had a photo of Qian Jiuyuan in their hands and recognized him at a glance. Without further ado, they directly stated their intention.

Without giving Gan Jiuyuan a chance to speak, he was handcuffed and taken away.

Qian Jiuyuan did not resist or raise any questions, and allowed them to take him away. Only when he was going out did he speak, "Wait a minute, I have something to say."

The young policeman looked impatient, but the policeman who was at the end said, "Let him say a few words! Anyway, we have caught him, and he can't run away."

Qian Jiuyuan looked over for the voice, and it turned out to be a familiar face, Zhang Han.

Qian Jiuyuan gave him a look of thanks and walked towards Xu Qing.

"Mom, Chaochao is sleeping. She may feel unwell. Just let her sleep naturally and don't disturb her. I've prepared food for her. Remember to let her eat when she wakes up. Also, she has a sore throat. If she feels uncomfortable, ask Aunt Yu to help her stew some tonic to soothe her throat and soothe her mind."

"Also, don't tell Chao Chao about my affairs. Don't worry, I'll be fine. I'll be back in the evening!"

After explaining everything, Qian Jiuyuan glanced at Lin Chaoci's door before leaving with the police.

"Madam, what happened to my uncle? Did he commit something?" Aunt Yu asked worriedly after seeing the group of people leaving.

Xu Qing, who had just changed her opinion of Qian Jiuyuan, saw that he didn't say a word or defend herself at all, so she just followed the police. Wasn't this a disguised admission that she had done something bad and violated the law?

My favorability was gone, and I even became more disgusted!

"What uncle? I won't admit it! Chao Ci won't recognize him either, and he's not allowed to be called this title in the future!"
