Le Bao was almost fainting from anger at Lin Yao’s self-righteous words, “You…you…”
Being so young, he had limited experience and wasn’t as thick-skinned as Lin Yao.
“Alright, Le Bao, to show that your dad is the real scumbag and your mom has a conscience, I’m leaving for City A to find you today.” Lin Yao changed the subject and got down to business. “You wait at home for me. I’ll be there in less than three days.”
Le Bao gripped the receiver slightly, her voice a little hoarse, “You…you came to find me?”
“That’s right. Since you hate me so much, why don’t you wait until I get there and kick me a couple of times?” Lin Yao asked seriously.
Le Bao snorted coldly, extremely arrogant, “Of course I want it!”
“Come on then, if you dare, I definitely won’t acknowledge you.”
Le Bao angrily said this and hurriedly hung up the phone.
His heart was racing, his expression kept changing, and his brows were slightly furrowed, clearly lost in thought.
“Young Master, why did you run down here? And why aren’t you wearing shoes?”
A soft, sticky voice sounded behind him.
Le Bao froze, and cold sweat broke out uncontrollably on his back.
The next second, he was picked up.
“Let me go!” Le Bao screamed, feeling a chill run through his body, as if he were being entangled by a venomous snake. The suffocating sensation made his already pale face turn even whiter.
“Young Master, you’re being disobedient again. I’ve always said that only good children are liked by adults. You’re being naughty, and naughty children are always punished.” The nanny, Zhou Qing, reached out and covered Le Bao’s mouth.
Her handkerchief contained traces of a sedative. Le Bao stared intently at her, but her struggling movements slowed down.
“Young master, that’s right, that’s a good boy.”
Zhou Qing sneered, picked up Le Bao and went straight upstairs to the second floor. He walked to the corner, opened a dark little room, and threw Le Bao inside.
“Young Master, you should reflect on your actions. You’re not allowed to come out for dinner until you have reflected properly.” Zhou Qing enjoyed the thrill of controlling Le Bao’s life and death. Seeing the terrified look in Le Bao’s eyes inside the room, the corners of her mouth involuntarily turned up.
“put……”
Le Bao reached out towards the door, but the door closed in his fearful gaze, and the whole room instantly went dark. Apart from a little bit of blurry light coming in through the sealed window, it was basically a completely dark room.
Especially at night, it is pitch black and completely silent.
Ho ho ho hu.
Le Bao curled up, covering her head, too scared to make a sound, her little body trembling uncontrollably.
–
In the county town, Lin Yao wasn’t angry that Le Bao hung up the phone.
This phone call made her realize that Le Bao had an extremely sharp personality. Thinking about Le Bao’s extreme personality traits after the plot started, she knew that the nanny must have caused him a lot of harm.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Yao made a phone call directly to the military office.
The phone rang a few times before being answered; unsurprisingly, it was Qin Shishen’s bodyguard, Xiao Liu.
“Xiao Liu, it’s me, Lin Yao.”
Xiao Liu was extremely surprised. He hadn’t received a call from Lin Yao in a long time and had almost forgotten about the regimental commander, his wicked and ill-fated first wife.
“…Sister-in-law?” Xiao Liu’s voice sounded somewhat unaccustomed.
Lin Yao ignored the other party’s attitude and asked rudely, “Where is Qin Shishen? Let him answer the phone.”
Xiao Liu was shocked by her impolite attitude. He really didn’t expect that Lin Yao’s marriage with the regimental commander was already dead in name only, yet she still had the courage to be impolite to the regimental commander.
Isn’t she afraid that the regimental commander will eventually lose patience and divorce her?
Although military marriages are difficult to end, that only applies to normal marriages. For a woman like Lin Yao who doesn’t care about her husband and children, the military leaders won’t stand by her side.
“Sister-in-law, the regimental commander is in a meeting and can’t answer your call right now.” Xiao Liu didn’t like her, and her attitude wasn’t much better.
“Okay, if he won’t answer the phone, I’ll get straight to the point. You can pass on the message to him.”
Lin Yao only cared about her own goals.
“Tell Qin Shishen to go home and say that Le Bao was abused by the nanny and locked in a dark room.”
“What? Impossible.” Xiao Liu refuted Lin Yao’s words without hesitation.
Lin Yao rolled her eyes. It was only because the other person wasn’t in front of her that she slapped him.
“Whether it’s true or not, you’ll know once you go for a checkup. I just called, and Le Bao answered. He revealed it unintentionally.”
“Is Le Bao not important? You can’t even go back and check on him?” Lin Yao said sarcastically. “Is this what you call loving your child more than I do?”
“Sister-in-law, that’s a harsh thing to say. The regimental commander and I are just concerned about the children. If we didn’t see them, then please remember to apologize to me,” Xiao Liu said through gritted teeth.
“Okay.” Lin Yao seemed to agree, but her distrust was practically overflowing, which infuriated Xiao Liu.
Even so, Lin Yao continued to be sarcastic, “You’re a soldier, your counter-surveillance capabilities must be very strong, right? You wouldn’t go back properly and give the nanny a chance to hide the evidence, would you?”
“…Of course not!” Xiao Liu said through gritted teeth. Any man would be upset if she looked down on him like that.
“Okay, then I’ll wait for your news,” Lin Yao said with a smile.
“You wait!”
As soon as Xiao Liu hung up the phone, he immediately got up and instructed the other soldiers in the office, “I have something to take care of. Tell the regimental commander when he comes back from his meeting.”
“Okay, Comrade Liu.”
Thinking of Lin Yao’s words, as Xiao Liu was riding his bicycle back to the military compound, he made another turn and went back to his own dormitory first, where he changed into civilian clothes.
It took him half an hour to get back to the military compound, but he did not enter the Qin family’s house through the main gate.
Instead, they climbed over the back door.
As soon as he entered, he heard no sound from inside the room and did not see Le Bao.
Logically, Le Bao should be on the second floor at this time.
Xiao Liu climbed up the backyard wall and quickly reached the second floor. He chose a room on the second floor, opened the window, and climbed in without making a sound.
He closed the window with one hand, turned the doorknob with the other, and appeared in the hallway.
The corridor was empty, which didn’t seem strange to Xiao Liu. Usually, only Le Bao and the nanny were in the building, so it was normal for it to be quiet.
He knew Le Bao’s room and went straight there.
Before we even reached Le Bao’s room, we heard laughter coming from downstairs as we passed the stairwell.
Xiao Liu thought Le Bao was downstairs, so he peeked out.
At that glance, I saw the nanny sitting on the sofa, staring at the black and white television in front of her.
But the television had no sound, only a picture, and the laughter was clearly coming from the nanny, Zhou Qing.
Xiao Liu was silent for a moment. He thought for a moment, then retreated back to the second-floor corridor without making a sound.
It’s normal for a nanny to watch TV so as not to disturb Le Bao’s reading, right?
With a clear goal in mind, Xiao Liu walked to Le Bao’s room. He had a key to every room in his hand because Le Bao had a bad temper and always liked to lock the door from the inside. In case of an accident, he and the team leader had specially made a key to every room in the house.
