The Rough Hunter's Little Lucky Wife

413 Kidnapped (Part Three)

Lady Yun had obviously thought of this as well. Her face was ashen. “When Shitou returns with the children, I’ll definitely give him a good beating. You can do whatever you want with us. My child is too bold and has no thoughts about his actions!”

It was already difficult for Shitou to go out alone. It was understandable if Zhao Nian followed him out because he liked to join in the fun, but what about Luoning? How did he get Luoning out?

“Now is not the time to talk about this. Finding the children is more important.”

The two dogs turned their heads to look at Yue Jiaojiao, pawing the ground as if they were trying to get out.

“Look.” Chang Ning held a few broken threads in his hand. “Is this from Zhao Nian?”

The edge of the hole was not very neat. It must have been scraped off when he was climbing out.

Yue Jiaojiao glanced at it.

“It is.”

“Lady Yun, where does this lead to?” Yue Jiaojiao stuffed the dog leash into Lady Yun’s hands and said, “You take the dog and wait here. When you hear our voices outside the cave, loosen the leash and let them come out to find me.”

The dogs were stubborn and wanted to crawl out. They couldn’t be dragged out by force, otherwise they would keep barking in the backyard. Although our shop is narrow, it’s deeper than the shop next door.

“The back leads to Qinglian Alley, and to the East of the alley is Shuanggui Street, where Shitou often goes.”

“Then you can wait here with the dog.”

“Chang Ning, let’s hurry to Qinglian Alley.”

Chang Ning immediately nodded and went to the front to lead the carriage. After Yue Jiaojiao settled down, he went straight ahead.

Although the alley was just behind the shop, it was a long street with twists and turns.

Yue Jiaojiao’s fingers were clenched tightly, and she gritted her teeth to force herself not to panic.

When they arrived at Qinglian Alley, Yue Jiaojiao took the two dogs from Lady Yun and followed them all the way to Shuanggui Street.

When they went out of the alley, they saw a bustling scene ahead of them.

The two dogs stood at the entrance of the alley, wagging their tails. They stepped on the ground and turned around anxiously. They sniffed around the wall for a long time and were a little confused.

Yue Jiaojiao then took out the two little ones’ belongings and let them smell it. “I know it’s been hard on you, but can you hold on a little longer?”

Her breathing was nervous, and she didn’t know if she was comforting the dog or persuading herself.

Thankfully, her actions were effective. The two dogs sniffed the ground and the wall again, and then led her to the West side. After walking for a long time, they stopped in front of a strong man selling candied haws.

Chang Ning hurriedly took out a few copper coins and handed them to the other party. “May I ask if you saw the three children passing by?”

“You’re talking about a little scholar with two babies, right?” the man in his prime took the copper coins and recalled, “I did. He even bought two candied haws from me. Then, a travel-worn man came over and chatted with them, saying that they were old acquaintances with their parents. I was busy selling candy at the time and didn’t hear everything clearly. When I turned back to look, they had already gone far away with the man. From the direction they went, it looked like they were heading South of the city. The little kid fell asleep as soon as he laid on the man’s shoulder, so I didn’t think much about it.”

Yue Jiaojiao, who had been holding on all this while, couldn’t hold on any longer. Her feet went soft, and she staggered two steps back, trying to find a wall to lean against.

They left with a man, and it was a travel-worn man who claimed to be an acquaintance?

If this wasn’t a kidnapper, then what was it?

She knew Zhao Nian’s personality better than anyone else. Although he looked very happy all day and could fall asleep on top of anyone who hugged him, he was actually very sensitive to other people’s emotions.

When he meets someone who makes him feel uncomfortable, although he can’t explain it, he will become more stubborn than anyone else. He would rather cry until his little body was red than be carried away by the other party.

How did he manage to sleep on a stranger’s shoulder? He had obviously been drugged.

Zhao Zhan, who was not far away, saw Yue Jiaojiao’s body swaying unsteadily. He shouted anxiously and quickly ran to her.

“What’s wrong?”

Zhao Zhan supported Yue Jiaojiao with one hand and placed his broad palm on the back of her head, burying his lover in his shoulder. He then looked at Chang Ning coldly and asked, “What happened?”

He was very dignified in front of his subordinates.

Chang Ning did not dare to hesitate and told Zhao Zhan the news he had just heard.

“Madam must have thought that Zhao Zhan met a kidnapper, so she…”
