Chapter 61: Little Jiu Is Missing (3)

The man then scanned the area around him. When he confirmed that Su Jiu was alone, he quickly slapped a hand over her mouth and carried her. He wrapped her in his coat, spun around, and rapidly escaped.

With his speed, he took away Su Jiu in just a few seconds before she could even shout for help.

The scene in the surveillance footage shocked Su Shengjing to the core.

He widened his eyes in disbelief, and the veins on his forehead bulged. This man kidnapped a child in broad daylight! Are we still a civilized and lawful society?

Su Shengjing immediately called the police. At the police station, he checked the surveillance cameras in the vicinity of the supermarket and discovered that the man carried Su Jiu into a car.

Weirdly, the man did not hide his license plate or use an inconspicuous method to slip away. Instead, he drove the car away openly in public. Moreover, he drove on the main road as if he were not worried about being tracked.

The police enlarged the image with the car plate number. They planned to ask the traffic police to track the car. However, when Sheng Tianci and Su Shengjing saw the car plate number, their expressions changed.

Su Shengjing’s expression turned ugly in particular.

He said to the police, “There’s no need to track the car. I know who it is.”

Sheng Tianci sympathetically patted his shoulder. “It looks like you’ll have to make a trip there.”

After placing Su Jiu in the car, the kidnapper buckled her seatbelt and warned her not to move or cry. Otherwise, he would not let her see her father.

If any other child were in place of her, they would’ve wailed their lungs out. However, Su Jiu was different. She noticed that this car was a limited edition Lincoln, which cost at least tens of millions of dollars. She instantly felt more at ease.

A person who could afford such a luxury car was definitely not a human trafficker.

However, the man had snatched her away without informing her father. Daddy and Uncle Sheng must be worried sick. Uncle Sheng must be blaming himself now, right?

To clarify the situation, Su Jiu decided to dig out some information. As she obediently sat, she turned around and curiously asked the man, who was now driving, “Uncle, are you a bad person?”

“No.”

“Then why did you kidnap me? Are you going to sell me away? I’m really skinny and small, but I can eat a lot. I’m not an easy child to raise, so I’m not worth much. No one will buy me.”

Her antics amused the man, and he stifled a laugh. “I’m not trying to sell you. I’m taking you to see someone.”

“Who is it?”

When he looked into the little girl’s lively eyes, coupled with the fact that she was neither crying nor making a fuss, the man found it hard to dislike her. His tone became gentler as he reassured her, “You’ll know when you get there. Anyway, we won’t hurt you. I’ll also bring you back to your father.”

“Then… Uncle, I trust you. You must bring me back to Daddy. You’re not allowed to lie. If you lie, you’re a dog.” As Su Jiu spoke, she reached out her hand and tugged the corner of the man’s shirt. She blinked with her big eyes and innocently looked at him.

The man was stunned by her cuteness. “…”

Ah, she’s too cute!

“Sure, I promise you.”

About half an hour later, the Lincoln drove into a villa district located in the city. Only rich or noble families could live here. A guardhouse protected the entrance, and Chinese parasol trees were planted along the road. Su Jiu peered out and saw the nearby sea.

The sky was a dazzling blue as fluffy white clouds floated around. The seagulls freely soared in the air, while the golden sunlight cascaded over the sea. The sparkling golden shimmer on the surface of the sea looked extremely beautiful.

Su Jiu started to feel curious*. Which rich family took a fancy to me and brought me here?*

Wait a minute!

Could it be the female protagonist’s parents in the novel, who are also the adoptive parents of my original character?

Thinking of this possibility, Su Jiu could not remain calm anymore!
