Chapter 419: Xiaoxin Is Missing

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Dawn was just breaking…

Jian Dan opened her eyes and saw that the bed was empty.

Initially, she thought that Xiaoxin had gone to the bathroom. “Xiaoxin, are you in the bathroom? Xiaoxin?”

She went to the door of the bathroom and knocked.

However, there was no movement inside at all. After pushing the door open, she realized that Xiaoxin was nowhere to be seen.

“Xiaoxin! Xiaoxin, where are you? Xiaoxin!”

Because of her yelling, Xiaokai woke up too. “Daxin, what’s wrong?” Xiaokai said as he rubbed his sleepy eyes.

“Xiaokai, Xiaoxin is missing!”

“What?” Hearing this news, Xiaokai instantly sobered up. “How is that possible?”

Xiaokai ran to the bed and realized that his sister was really not in it. He reached out and touched the bed. It was cool—it was obvious that no one had laid on it for a long time.

“Xiaoxin!”

When the realization that Xiaoxin was missing hit Jian Dan, she went to pieces and was at a loss for what to do.

“Check with the nurse first.” Xiaokai reminded her.

As the only man in the family, he knew that he could not panic at this time.

“Oh! Yes, yes, yes! I’ll go right away!” Seeing that his mother was rather flustered, Xiaokai followed after her.

“Have you seen my daughter?”

When Jian Dan got to the nurses’ station, she asked as she grabbed one of the nurses’ shoulders agitatedly.

“Ouch! What are you doing? Calm down! You’re hurting me!”

“Mom, calm down!” Xiaokai patted Jian Dan’s arm. “Let me ask.”

“Hello, Nurse. I want to ask if you’ve seen my sister?”

“Your sister? What happened to her?”

“She’s missing. We’ve searched the entire room and couldn’t find her.”

“Could she be hiding on purpose as a joke?”

“No! She won’t put us in such panic.”

“Well…”

“The hospital isn’t open yet. My sister should still be in the hospital. Nurse, can you help us find her?”

“Okay. Don’t worry too much. We’ll help you find her now.”

“Okay. Thank you, Nurse.”

“Xiaokai, thank goodness you’re here. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have known. I…”

“Daxin, don’t worry. We will definitely find Xiaoxin.”

“Yes! Yes, we’ll definitely find her!”

Xiaokai is still a child, yet he’s so collected. How can I lose to him?

The most important thing now is to focus and find Xiaoxin as soon as possible.

They searched for a long time and almost turned the entire hospital upside down, but they still could not find Xiaoxin. By now, the hospital had been open for a long time. They did not know if Xiaoxin had already left the hospital. If she left the hospital, what am I gonna do?!

At the thought of this, tears fell again…

Chu Liyuan came to the hospital for a follow-up today, but Sizhe was tied up. Hence, he went to his office to wait for him.

He frowned when he tried to unlock the door with the key…

This scatterbrain left his office unlocked.

He wanted to take a seat and wait for him to come over, but as soon as he sat in his chair… He realized that a little girl was sleeping under Sizhe’s desk…

Upon closer inspection…

Eh… Isn’t this the little girl from the other day?

What’s she doing here?

What are this child’s parents doing?

Chu Liyuan reached out and gently patted the girl’s shoulder…

“Mmm…” Feeling the pat, Xiaoxin opened her eyes and rubbed her sleepy eyes.

“Uncle Handkerchief?”

“What are you doing here?” Looks like not only did this girl remember me, she even gave me a nickname.

“Uncle Handkerchief, why are you here?”

“Little girl, I asked you first.”

“Oh! Uncle, what time is it now?” As she asked, she stuck her head out to look at the watch on Chu Liyuan’s wrist. “It’s already so late? I have to leave now!”

Why does her words sound off?

“Hey, wait a minute!” He grabbed Xiaoxin, who was about to leave.

“Uncle, let go of me. I have to leave now. Otherwise, my mother and brother will find me.”

“Why don’t you want them to find you? Don’t tell me they treat you badly?”

“Of course not! My mother and brother treats me the best in this world.”

“Then why are you avoiding them?”

“It’s precisely because they’re so good to me that I don’t want them to be sad.”

“Huh?”

“My condition worsened. I might die soon, so I don’t want them to be sad.”

“So, you want to do the vanishing act by hiding somewhere and facing death alone?”

Chu Liyuan could not imagine that such words could come out from the mouth of a four or five-year-old child..
