Mu Jingxian did not answer Lin Sisi's question, but asked: "I just heard you talking, are you talking to someone on the phone?"

Lin Sisi's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly pursed her lips and said, "Brother, you must have heard me wrongly. I didn't say anything. I was clearly sleeping soundly, but I might have been talking in my sleep."

As he said this, he pretended to yawn.

Mu Jingxian stood at the door for a long time and whispered, "Really?"

Lin Sisi looked up at him and felt that Mu Jingxian seemed to become depressed after his trip to the police station today.

Suddenly her heart skipped a beat.

Could it be that Mu Jingxian knew something that I didn’t know?

At that moment, Lin Sisi felt mixed emotions and didn't know whether she should ask.

But she was really curious.

Lin Sisi looked at him and said softly, "Of course. I played with Sui Sui all day today and I am really tired."

Mu Jingxian smiled and said, "Really? Then Yueyue, have a good rest. I won't disturb you for the time being."

Lin Sisi anxiously grabbed his sleeve, tilted her head, and asked worriedly, "Brother, did you meet the person who kidnapped me today?"

Mu Jingxian hummed.

Lin Sisi lowered her head and asked hesitantly, "Then...did the police officer tell my brother about the bad guy's motive for committing the crime, and what this is related to..."

Mu Jingxian was puzzled: "Why is Yueyue asking these questions?"

Lin Sisi's voice lowered, but she still said, "I'm just curious... can you tell me, brother?" After saying that, she raised her head and blinked her innocent little eyes.

Mu Jingxian reached out and rubbed Lin Sisi's furry head, saying, "Yueyue, it has nothing to do with anything. Don't ask about these things anymore. This matter has passed."

Lin Sisi fell silent for a moment.

She knew that Mu Jingxian was worried about his sister's physical and mental health, so he didn't want to talk too much about these things, but she was not a child, she was an adult inside, and she was mature and strong inside; if her current body was not too young and did not have much ability, she would not have come to ask Mu Jingxian directly.

She should have guessed that Mu Jingxian would treat her perfunctorily like this, but she still went to ask with hope.

In the end, Lin Sisi still said nothing. She just hummed quietly, then raised her head and smiled, saying, "Okay, then I won't ask anymore. I'll go in and rest first. Brother should also rest early. Good night."

Having said that, she slid into the room and closed the door gently.

Mu Jingxian stood at the door and looked at the closed door, then turned around and walked back to his room.

Lin Sisi leaned against the door, stunned for a moment, but finally sighed helplessly, locked the door, then walked to the bed, picked up the phone, and skillfully dialed Qin Sui's number.

Qin Sui didn't know how long she had been waiting. She was holding the phone and waiting for her call. When the call came, she quickly pressed the answer button, her excitement revealed in her words.

"Yueyue, I've been waiting for you for a long time and finally called you! Your brother is back, right? Did he say something to you, like about the kidnapper?"

Lin Sisi said helplessly: "I asked, but my brother didn't want me to know."

Qin Sui calmed down a bit and thought about it, then hummed softly, "I guess your brother might be worried about you being kidnapped last time, so he didn't tell you because he was worried that the kidnapper would leave a psychological trauma on you. If you don't know, then you don't know. Anyway, the bad guys have been caught by the police, and it's probably going to be more than a decade before they can get out."

"…Um."

Qin Sui noticed that the voice coming from the other end of the phone seemed to reveal some low emotions, so she asked in a low voice: "Yueyue, what's wrong, are you unhappy?"

Lin Sisi shook her head and said, "No, I just thought of something."

Qin Sui lay on the bed, supporting her cheek with one hand, holding the phone to her ear with the other hand, swinging her feet behind her. She asked doubtfully, "Have you thought of anything unhappy? Yueyue, you can tell me about it. Maybe I can enlighten you, hehe."

Lin Sisi hummed and said, "It's nothing, Sui Sui, go to bed early and we can talk tomorrow. I'm sleepy. Good night."

Although she said that, Lin Sisi almost said what she wanted to say. But when she considered that Qin Sui was still young, she would not understand even if she told her, so she kept it to herself.

To be honest, she felt really uncomfortable keeping these things in her heart.

But there is nothing we can do.

I am a child now, and the people around me are all children. Even if I say this, they will just treat it as a joke and no one will believe it.

What should she do.

Qin Sui looked at the time on her phone, pursed her lips, and said a little aggrievedly: "But it's only ten o'clock, it's still early, can't Yueyue chat a little more?"

"It's too late. My brother just told me that if he found out that I was calling you again, he would remove the small phone in my room. In order for us to talk on the phone more often in the future, we should go to bed early. It's for your own good and mine, understand?"

"Why is Mr. Mu like this? He's a little naughty, but I like it, hehe."

"Uh...how about Sui Sui come over tomorrow and ask for favors for me and my brother?"

"Well... forget it. I can't help blushing whenever I look at your brother. I guess I can't even speak clearly... Let's just hang up now. Go to bed early, Yueyue. I'll come to play with you tomorrow!"

"Well, okay. Good night, too, Sui Sui."

"Good night, sweet dreams!"

Just like that, Lin Sisi hung up the phone.

Although she hung up the phone with such a reason, Lin Sisi still dialed Qian Jiahong's home phone number unconsciously in the blink of an eye. The moment the call was made, Lin Sisi's heart began to pound, as if she suddenly felt guilty about something. She didn't know why she suddenly called him and then hung up in an instant.

She crawled into the quilt and covered herself with it.

My sudden call to Qian Jiahong happened too suddenly, and I hadn't even thought about what to say yet.

Should I tell him about Lin Feng right away?

This is too inappropriate. It will scare Qian Jiahong.

Just when Lin Sisi was almost suffocating in the quilt, she crawled out from under the quilt, gasping for breath, thinking about what to say when she called Qian Jiahong later.

But the next second, the phone rang softly.

Lin Sisi was so frightened that she quickly went to the phone to take a look. The number on the display showed that it was Qian Jiahong calling.

Her mind went blank instantly, and she slowly reached out to the phone and gently picked up the handle.

My heart was pounding as if it was about to jump out of my throat.

Just now she hung up halfway through the call. Logically, it should have just been a few rings, but Qian Jiahong still found out. That was too much of a coincidence.
