After investigating clues uncovered by Dragon King’s men, it could be confirmed that Xiaonian had been dragged into a van, which then headed north.
Xiaofeng and Ye Cheng were sitting together in the back seat, Xiaoyan sat in the front, and Shuiling sat next to Xiaofeng.
Since they got into the car, Shuiling and Xiaoyan had not spoken again.
In their eyes, this man known as Lord Dragon, was expressionless and emanated a cold aura, creating an illusion of keeping people miles away.
To avoid giving the other two a wrong impression, Xiaofeng and Ye Cheng didn’t talk during the ride and just sat close together.
Xiaofeng secretly hooked Ye Cheng’s finger, giving him a sweet smile when he looked at her.
Ah, these secret loves really are thrilling, no wonder so many married men like to seek affairs outside.
When Xiaofeng tried to hook his finger again, Ye Cheng firmly grasped her hand, his eyes warning her to stop fooling around.
If things turned messy, he wouldn’t take responsibility.
After all, he was a man of the underworld, flirting with women was normal, but her status as the Young Madam of the Gu Family, flirting with him in public, conveyed a different meaning.
Just as Xiaoyan turned around to say something to Xiaofeng, his eyes landed right on the man’s hand that was on his sister’s hand.
Actually, if he hadn’t turned around, everything would have seemed normal.
Xiaofeng quickly withdrew her hand and placed it on her own lap.
Ye Cheng turned his head to look out of the window.
Xiaoyan, "...", was full of doubts, wondering if what he just saw was his illusion.
But that man called Dragon King didn’t look like a good person.
Thinking this, he said to the driver, "Stop the car."
Shuiling looked up, puzzled; had they arrived?
Xiaoyan just got out of the car and said to Xiaofeng, "Sis, you sit in the front, I’ll take your place."
"Why change seats when everything was fine?" Shuiling didn’t understand why Xiaoyan, who was comfortably seated in the front, wanted to move to the back.
Xiaoyan didn’t say anything, just looked at Xiaofeng.
Xiaofeng chuckled lightly, calling him a silly kid.
He must be trying to prevent her from doing something that might hurt Ye Cheng’s feelings, which was quite endearing.
Nodding, she agreed, "Okay."
Xiaoyan sat next to Ye Cheng and, when they sat down, he specifically looked at him and said, "You’re Dragon, right? Can you tell my sister has had children? She’s a mom to two babies now."
Xiaofeng, hearing Xiaoyan’s words, was both amused and frustrated; indeed, some things shouldn’t be done secretly. If she hadn’t secretly hooked Ye Cheng’s fingers, he wouldn’t have gripped them back, and Xiaoyan wouldn’t have seen it.
Xiaoyan must have misunderstood something and was now warning Ye Cheng.
Ye Cheng’s mouth twitched, feeling as if he was being warned.
Indeed, as a married man, he really shouldn’t sit close to her. The young man had a sense of responsibility and was quite tactful.
"Then she married quite early, to be a mom at such a young age."
After Xiaoyan said that, he didn’t speak further.
In his view, this man definitely had feelings for his sister, so he just needed to keep a close watch.
Following the investigation by Dragon King’s men, they found the van in a secluded cottage.
The van was parked at the entrance, and the wooden door of the cottage was starting to come off, showing signs of age.
Looking at the tiles above, not many were intact; most were broken.
The courtyard was bustling and seemed rather cheerful.
Dragon King and Xiaofeng exchanged glances, and through their eyes, they confirmed that this was indeed the right place.
"Xiaoyan, Shuiling, stay in the car. We’ll go down and have a look first," said Xiaofeng as she prepared to get out of the car.
"Sis, I’ll go with Dragon, you ladies better stay in the car."
Xiaofeng took the initiative to get out of the car with Ye Cheng to gather information inside the courtyard.
Xiaofeng nodded, feeling annoyed within herself; Xiaoyan definitely had a misunderstanding.
Ah, as the saying goes, ’Don’t do it and you won’t die’.
Now that Xiaoyan misunderstood, he might think of her as someone bad.
Dragon King glanced at Xiaoyan, "You go there, and I’ll check this side out."
In such situations, of course, it’s important to figure out how many people are inside.
Xiaoyan nodded, looked around to make sure no one was around, and quickly climbed in.
Dragon King also climbed in from this side.
Xiaofeng watched them come out and got out of the car, "What’s the situation inside, is Xiaonian there?"
Xiaoyan’s eyes twitched, but he said nothing.
"Go in and see for yourself," Ye Cheng said somewhat helplessly.
