Chapter 1935: Chapter 81: Missing and Found

"Yes!" Gao Jinglin no longer dared to laugh it off.

"Now go and fully understand everything I just said and remember it firmly in your mind. Every step from now on, every single thing has to be done this way."

Being born into a family of rescue comrades, Gao Jinglin had a high acceptance level due to his exposure since childhood. Although he had been rebellious and loved leading trouble from a young age, the passion in his bones was no less than anyone else’s.

Listening to Gu Yunbo’s instructions, he clenched his fist tightly, agreed promptly, and carried it out earnestly.

Old Mansion

Senior rescue guide Gao Yuejin was also very busy during the New Year, especially after Meng Xingzhi returned to the Northwest District to pay respects to the family elder. He was left spinning around solo. That was one thing, but what made him even more upset was finding his secretly stashed good wine all gone when he got home.

This really made him furious.

With nothing better to do during the New Year, he decided to give the kid a beating. Afterward, he still wasn’t satisfied, so he put the brat in solitary confinement.

Speaking of this solitary confinement, it might be a unique scenery of the Old Mansion. Because all the residents were big shots in the rescue world, and their bratty kids were each more troublesome than the last, they collectively decided to build a dedicated confinement room in the mansion to discipline the kids.

Its size nearly rivaled a prison.

From a young age, almost none of these kids had escaped being confined, and the confinement room was busy all the time. Sometimes they even had to coordinate with each other.

You could often hear conversations like this in the mansion.

"Old Shen, I need the confinement room tomorrow for my family."

"No way, no way, there’s a queue."

"You need to queue to punish a kid?"

"My family is still using it! Heh heh heh... three rooms."

"Your three sons are impressive, huh? Don’t get cocky."

So, the confinement room remained the most popular spot in the mansion, always in short supply, and sometimes two old comrades would fight it out to see who could lock up their sons and grandsons first, scrambling before they even started to talk.

This time, Gao Yuejin gave a strict order; the brat dared to steal and drink his wine. If he didn’t subdue him, his wine wouldn’t be his own any longer. He changed clothes as soon as he got home and headed towards the confinement room. Along the way, he greeted old comrades and neighbors, and upon reaching the confinement room, he found a little girl just coming out.

"Yingzi? Why are you inside? Where’s your brother Jinglin?" Gao Yuejin suddenly had a bad feeling.

"I don’t know!" Chen Huaying blinked with puzzled eyes, looking downbeat. Generally, boys were the ones confined in the mansion; she was a rare exception.

Occasionally, she would be confined.

Gao Yuejin now understood clearly that the brat must have run away while he was not home. No, once you’re locked inside the confinement room, you can’t escape without help.

Only his wife would dare defy his orders and let someone out, so Gao Yuejin stormed back home, but his wife wasn’t there at all.

"Where’s Xiao Liu?" Gao Yuejin asked his assistant.

"She... she’s gone back to her mother’s place." The assistant clearly already knew that Gao Jinglin had been let out by the guiding wife.

"When did that brat get out?" He had only been away from home for two days, and already dared to defy his orders. Truly deserves a spanking.

"The day before yesterday... he got out."

"I see." Gao Yuejin guessed the brat had probably tagged along with his wife back to her mother’s place, thinking about how his wife stayed so busy all year that she had few chances to go back. Fine, just for the wife’s sake.

Gao Yuejin waited at home, waited and waited until the Lantern Festival, when his wife returned from her parent’s place, only then realizing something was wrong. Because his wife returned alone; the brat hadn’t come back with her.

At first, he threw a big fit, thinking his wife hid their son to avoid a beating.

Turns out his wife was completely puzzled, not knowing at all their son was missing.
