Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
Sensing the danger, Huo Mian tried to wake up but couldn’t…
In the afternoon, Qin Chu finished making the arrangements and tried to start a video talk with Huo Mian.
But she didn’t accept it.
He sent her a message through WeChat, but she didn’t reply.
He tried to call her, but she didn’t answer the call.
Qin Chu was alarmed.
He called the fixed phone in the house and Pudding answered it.
“Dad…” Pudding yelled sweetly.
“Pudding, where’s your Mom?”
“She’s upstairs… She went back to the bedroom to take a nap more than one hour ago. She looked fatigued,” Pudding said.
“I called her, but she didn’t answer; she didn’t reply to my WeChat message, either.”
“Huh? Really?” Pudding was puzzled because she knew her mom was a light sleeper and would wake up at the slightest sound, not to mention the ring of her cellphone.
“Pudding, go up and check up on her.”
“Okay.”
“Hurry.” Qin Chu was anxious.
“Okay.”
Without hanging up the phone, Pudding immediately ran upstairs.
She knocked lightly on the door, afraid to alarm her mom.
“Mommy, are you in there?”
After waiting five seconds, she pushed open the door gently when she didn’t hear a reply.
Seeing the person in the bed, Pudding exhaled lightly.
“Hu… She’s sleeping,” Pudding mumbled to herself.
She saw Huo Main lying on the bed facing away from the door in her favorite sleeping gown.
Her back rose and fell slightly and looked to be sound asleep.
Pudding closed the door gently, walked out, and picked up the phone.
“Dad, Mom is indeed sleeping.”
“Did you see her?” Qin Chu asked.
“Yeah. I saw her. I pushed open the door and she’s lying in bed. She’s sound asleep and didn’t hear the phone or she had muted the phone. Do you want me to wake her up?” Pudding asked.
“No. She’s been tense lately and might have slept poorly last night. Let her sleep.”
“Okay, Dad. Anything else?”
“Is there anything unusual happening at home? Did any strange people come to the house?” worriedly, Qin Chu asked.
“No. Nothing unusual.”
“Good.”
“Uh-huh.”
action “You and your sister stay put. Tonight, I’ll probably deliver you to the Su Family.”
“The Su Family? Why?”
“I’ll tell you later. Just do as I tell you.”
“Okay. No problem, Daddy.” Pudding nodded obediently.
Qin Chu ended the conversation with his daughter.
Then he called Su Yu.
Afraid that their phones were being monitored, Qin Chu asked Su Yu to come to the company.
Su Yu got his call in the middle of his meal with some directors.
“President Qin, President Su is here.”
“Let him in.”
“Okay.”
Assistant Yang ushered Su Yu into the president’s office.
“You seldom ask to see me… Something big is going to happen?” Su Yu went to the point as soon as he entered the room.
“Take a seat.”
Su Yu nodded and sat down on the sofa across from Qin Chu.
“Tonight, I want you to do me a favor.”
“What is it?” Su Yu was surprised.
“After dark, I want you to pick up Mian and the kids to stay the night at your home.”
“My home?” Su Yu was puzzled.
“Not your own house. I mean Grandpa Su’s house,” Qin Chu corrected him.
“Um… Why?” Su Yu knew Qin Chu wouldn’t let his wife and children stay the night outside without a good reason.
“It’s because Grandpa Su’s house is well guarded.” Qin Chu was frank with him.
Understanding dawned on Su Yu and he asked grimly, “Are you going to war with Huo Siqian now?”
