Chi Enen bit her lower lip hard, her mind flooded with the thought, “Li Beijue knows about the existence of Baby Chi, Li Beijue has taken the child away.” The mere thought that her little baby might have been forcibly taken away from her made her blood run cold, and her face turned deathly pale. She stopped Qin Nan from calling, “Sister Nan, don’t call the police yet.”
Qin Nan was already panicking and couldn’t understand, asking her in disbelief, “Why not call the police? Hasn’t the baby already been taken away by a stranger for one night? If we don’t call the police now, it might be too late!”
Chi Enen didn’t know how to explain to her, she could only say, “The baby probably wasn’t taken away by a stranger.”
“If not a stranger, could it really be his dad?” Qin Nan asked reflexively.
It was indeed possible it was his dad!
But it was precisely because it was his biological father that made her feel so uneasy!
The reasons were too complex, and Chi Enen couldn’t explain it to her in a short time. She grabbed Qin Nan’s hand, stopping her from making the call, while picking up her own bag in haste and said, “Sister Nan, just don’t call the police for now. I’ll explain the reasons to you later, please, when Fatty Fish arrives, ask for a leave on my behalf. Just say I’ve got an emergency and might not be able to come to work today.”
“Okay.”
“That’s it then, 1 need to go.”
Qin Nan, still concerned, grabbed her wrist and reminded her, “No matter the situation, remember to send me a message about the little baby’s whereabouts. I’m very worried.”
“Okay!” Chi Enen nodded earnestly.
She wasn’t sure if it was Li Beijue who had taken Baby Chi.
But she was ninety percent certain it was!
Either way, everything would have to wait until she saw the child for herself!
With Baby Chi’s whereabouts unknown, Chi Enen wasn’t in the mood to waste any time and quickly agreed to Qin Nan’s request. She ran out of the company, hailed a taxi, and rushed home.
All the way she urged the driver to go faster, speeding all the while, until she finally reached home.
Out of breath, she handed the money to the taxi driver, “Keep the change, Master. Thank you.”
Saying this, she ran up the stairs.
In the community corridor, the bodyguards were nowhere to be seen. Chi Enen’s heart sank as she took out her key and opened the room door. As expected, inside the house was empty, devoid of any man’s presence.
All her strength seemed to drain from her body in an instant, her legs almost giving out, barely managing to fall to the ground.
Fortunately, she quickly steadied herself on the nearby sofa to avoid completely collapsing.
Chi Enen’s eyes darted around frantically.
Her mind became even more chaotic.
What should she do?
What should she do now?
Suddenly.
An idea flashed through her mind.
That’s right!
The mobile phone! How could she have not thought of the mobile phone!
Chi Enen swiftly placed her bag on the sofa and rummaged through it for her phone, realizing as she checked her contacts list that she had already deleted Li Beijue’s phone number during their last encounter.
She searched further and finally found Huo Yi’s number at the end of the list.
As Chi Enen dialed the number, her heart was in her throat!
“Beep beep…” After a series of electronic crackles, the call connected. Huo Yi’s voice sounded surprised, as if wondering why she would call him out of the blue, “Hello, Miss Chi?”
But Chi Enen clung to the conversation like a lifeline, saying urgently, “Butler Huo, where is Li Beijue? 1 need to see him!”
“Master Jue, ah…” Huo Yi paused, “Master Jue is currently tied up with important matters and might not be able to see you.. Miss Chi, do you have something you need from Master Jue? If it’s something urgent, tell me, and I’ll relay the message to him?”
