However, there were so many people, but Xiangxiang was nowhere to be seen.
Li Lei squatted down and muttered, âWhere did this child go?â
Ji Ziâang understood his breakdown. His father had just passed away because of him, and now the child was gone.
No matter how strong Eldest Uncle was, he couldnât take such a blow.
âELdest Uncle, think wisely. Nothing will happen. Everyone was looking for it. Perhaps there would be news later.â Ji Ziâang comforted him weakly.
Li Lei, however, acted as if he hadnât heard him. He squatted on the ground and looked ahead.
âJi Ziâang?â At this moment, a girl not far away tentatively called out.
Ji Ziâang turned around and looked at the pretty girl. He was confused, âYou know me?â
â Long time no see, Ji Ziâang. I watched your match. Youâre reallyâ¦â The girl said with a smile.
When she arrived, she saw Ji Ziangâs ugly expression and Li Lei squatting on the ground.
The girl quickly shut her mouth and stopped smiling.
âIâm Qi Huanhuan. We were deskmates in primary school. I was just passing by and saw you, so I came over to say hello. I donât have any other intentions.â Qi Huanhuan explained in a low voice.
âSince youâre busy, I wonât disturb you.â She said after a pause.
Qi Huanhuan was a name from a long time ago. Ji Ziâang only remembered after a few seconds.
He only remembered that Qi Huanhuan seemed to be the class Belle.
Moreover, Qi Huanhuanâs mother was also quite beautiful, second only to his mother.
However, at this moment, he was not in the mood to chat with her.
He forced a smile and said politely, âI have something to do now, so itâs not convenient for me to stay any longer. We should have each otherâs QQ right? Talk to you later.â
Qi Huanhuan could not help but laugh. She nodded and said, âAlright, you go ahead.â
After Qi Huanhuan left, Ji Ziâang looked at Li Lei and continued to persuade him, âEldest Uncle, letâs go look elsewhere.â
S City was an hourâs journey away from W City.
Li Yong and Qin Xiaomin soon arrived at the door of Meng Xiaoningâs place.
This was the house Li Lei and Meng Xiaoning had bought when they first moved to the city.
After the divorce, Li Lei didnât want to argue with Meng Xiaoning about this, nor did he want his son to suffer with Meng Xiaoning.
After all, Meng Xiaoning couldnât make much money, but at least he still had the ability to make money. He wouldnât wrong Xiangxiang, so he gave the house to Meng Xiaoning.
Before this, Li Yong and Qin Xiaomin had come to their house.
Therefore, the two of them were familiar with the place and soon found Meng Xiaoning.
Li Yong reached out and knocked on the door several times before Meng Xiaoningâs voice came from inside, âWho is it?â
âItâs me.â Li Yong whispered.
The door was immediately opened, and Meng Xiaoning appeared at the door with an impatient look on her face, âWhatâs wrong?â
âHas Xiangxiang been here?â Li Yong asked straightforwardly.
âI already said that sheâs not here. Why are you still looking for me? And how were you taking care of the child? How could you lose such a big child?â
Meng Xiaoning actually made such a countercharge?
Li Yong was so angry that he laughed. He rolled up his sleeves, âMeng Xiaoning, are you still human? Arenât you worried at all that your daughter is missing? Why donât you go out and look for her?â
He was so angry that he called Meng Xiaoning by her full name.
Meng Xiaoning was stunned for a moment, but she quickly retorted, âHow am I supposed to look after Xiao Jie by myself? Iâm also anxious. Do I not going to care about anything?â
Li Yong was about to rush forward. He really could not stand this woman anymore.
Seeing this, Qin Xiaomin quickly pulled him back.
As she pulled Li Yong, she said politely, âSister Meng, we were once a family. Since Father passed away, you didnât bring Xiao Jie back to take a look, and we wonât say anything. After all, you donât have any blood relationship with our father. Whether you want to think about our fatherâs good or not, we canât control it. But Xiangxiang is your biological child. You gave birth to the child after being in pain for more than ten hours in the hospital.â
Hearing Qin Xlaominâs words, Meng Xiaoningâs expression changed a little.
âArenât you worried that sheâs gone? I was just Xiangxiangâs Auntie, yet I was especially flustered when she disappeared. How could you be so calm?â Qin Xiaomin questioned gently.
She couldnât figure out what Meng Xiaoningâs heart was made of. Why was it so hard?
Meng Xiaoning pursed her lips, and her expression softened a lot, âOf course, my heart aches for her, but I canât abandon Xiang Jie. Iâ¦â
âMom, is Uncle Pang here?â Before Meng Xiaoning could finish her words, Li Jie walked out of the bedroom with sleepy eyes.
He rubbed his eyes and walked out. When he saw it was Li Yong standing outside, Li Jie instantly became happy and quickened his pace, âSecond Uncle, Second Auntâ¦â
However, he had only taken a few steps when she was caught by Meng Xiaoning.
âIf youâre awake, go and read for a while. I want to talk to your Second Uncle and Second Aunt for a while.â Meng Xiaoning whispered.
Li Jie was slightly disappointed, but he obediently turned around and returned to the bedroom.
When Meng Xiaoning turned around again, she saw Li Yong staring at her coldly.
âWho is the Uncle Pang that Li Jie is talking about?â
Meng Xiaoning lowered her head guiltily. After a moment, she raised her head again and said in a tough tone, âYour brother and I are already divorced. Itâs normal for me to find another boyfriend, right? Even your Big Brother canât control me, let alone you!â
Although these words were annoying, they were the truth.
Qin Xiaomin pulled Li Yongâs arm and whispered, âLetâs go. Itâs more important to find Xiangxiangâ¦â
After much persuasion, she finally dragged Li Yong away from Meng Xiaoningâs door.
After the two of them left, Meng Xiaoning couldnât wait to close the door.
Li Yong was dragged by Qin Xiaomin all the way downstairs.
Downstairs, Li Yong raised his hand and hammered the wall indignantly. He even cursed.
âWhat kind of world is this? Iâve never seen her act like a mother.â
Qin Xiaomin sighed, âWhatâs so strange about that? There are parents who love their children, and there are also parents who love themselves more than their children.â
Li Yong sighed deeply and said in a low voice, âLetâs not go anywhere. I have a feeling that Xiangxiang will definitely come. Letâs just wait here.â
Yuanyuan and Mucheng went to Meng Xiaoningâs maiden home. It would probably be over soon.
He would definitely come over after he was done.
Qin Xiaomin also agreed with Li Yong. The two of them got into the car and stared at the door of Meng Xiaoningâs unit.
However, they did not expect that before Ji Yuanyuan and the rest arrived, they would find Xiangxiang first.
She got out of a taxi and jogged all the way into the apartment building.
By the time Li Yong and Qin Xiaomin realized it, she had already disappeared.
Li Yong and Qin Xiaomin quickly got out of the car and chased after her..
