Chapter 83 Jiaojiao is Kidnapped (8)_1
As Wa Yiting reminisced about the day she fell ill and the tender, gentle care she received from the Ruanlin Family, she could hardly contain a surge of emotion. It was as if without Ruan Jiaojiao, she would become the Ruan Family’s granddaughter in the next second, basking in their affection. She had even planned out how to comfort the Ruanlins...
Liu Mei only realized that Xiu Xi hadn’t returned when she locked up for the night.
However, she didn’t care whether he came back or not. Seeing that his shack was empty, she merely cursed under her breath, shut the main gate, and went to bed with a rather content mood. Her spirits were lifted by the Ruan Family’s misfortune; the worse they fared, the happier she was!
The next day.
Before sunrise, Ruan Jianguo and others had already gotten up, waiting in the courtyard for the police to arrive. They had a quick breakfast and, finally, after 10 a.m., the police from the station arrived, five in total.
All five officers were armed as they made their way to the front mountain.
This time, the team did not follow; only the Ruan Family members went, except for Ruan Jiandang, who was still lying in the hospital. The other three went, including Ruan Hao and Ruan Bo. The rest were ordered to stay home and not to wander off.
The younger ones were somewhat defiant, but they knew this was not the time to cause trouble. Knowing they were too young to help, they reluctantly stayed home and waited.
However, from morning until noon, their search was fruitless.
The front mountain was vast, stretching nearly to the next two towns. If they truly needed to search it from end to end, a small police outpost would not be up to the task.
The sun hung overhead, its light so intense that Ruan Jianguo could barely keep his eyes open.
