mother-in-law?
Huo Yaoting's expression turned solemn, his eyes squinted, and looked at Huo Chengshang coldly: "You don't need me to teach you how to do it right?"
Faced with his especially rude tone, Huo Chengshang's sharp eyes became even more gentle, "Leave it to me."
With that said, Huo Chengshang took out his phone and walked out.
Seeing him leave, Huo Yaoting's cold eyes flashed with a trace of worry.
The little girl went to her mother-in-law's house yesterday. Presumably, she already knew about what happened with her mother-in-law.
Her thin lips suddenly tightened, while her handsome face tightened up.
Duo Tong stared at the phone on the table, bent down to pick it up and dialed Ye Xi's number.
Ye Xi walked out of the hotel and called a taxi to the police station.
As he sat in the car, Ye Xi's entire body couldn't help but tremble. He bit his thumb hard, leaving behind a deep red mark.
The long hair that had fallen down from the sides of her ears had almost completely covered her little face.
It was unknown just how many times his phone's ringtone had sounded, but it was as if Ye Xi didn't hear it, as her small head drooped and trembled.
"Miss, Miss??" The driver got on the car from Ye Xi and observed her carefully.
Of course, he didn't mean to observe, but her behavior was too abnormal.
It was as if he had suffered a blow?? Or... He was not in his right mind!
Thus, he paid extra attention to her.
At this moment, her cell phone was ringing non-stop. However, she acted as if she didn't hear it, causing him to feel angry.
Thus, he couldn't help but call out to her.
However, his words didn't seem to have any effect, because she still didn't seem to hear him. She lowered her head and didn't say a word.
This strange atmosphere caused the driver to panic. He couldn't care less as the driver suddenly turned the steering wheel, causing the car to stop at the side of the road.
He suddenly braked, causing Ye Xi to be caught off guard. His forehead struck the back of the chair in front of him.
However, she didn't scream out for pain. With red eyes, she slowly sat up and silently looked at the driver.
What the f * ck!
The driver felt his blood run cold when he saw her look at him. Could it be that he had run into a ghost in the middle of the day?
The driver bitterly swallowed his saliva, "Miss, you, are you alright?"
Ye Xi looked out of the carriage and saw that he had stopped the carriage.
She suddenly became nervous and looked at the driver in panic, "Why did you stop the car? "Drive, drive!"
The driver's eyes trembled, "Miss, you, are you really alright?"
"I'm fine, Master. I'm really fine." Ye Xi pinched his fingertips, pretending to be calm as he nodded his head.
The driver looked at her for a while, just as her phone started ringing, his gaze landed on her bag and looked at Ye Xi.
It was as if only after Ye Xi answered the phone did he know how to drive.
Ye Xi took a deep breath and opened his bag in a hurry to take out his phone.
He didn't have time to look at the caller ID, so he answered.
"Xiao Xi??"
The familiar male voice on the other end of the phone was nervous and anxious.
Ye Xi's fingertip used his strength to hold onto his phone, instantly causing his tears to surge, his helpless little voice shattered and became hoarse, "Hubby??"
The driver froze when he heard her call him "hubby."
This girl looked like she was only 16 or 17, yet she already had a 'husband'? Boyfriend!
But when he saw the little girl crying so bitterly, the driver suddenly remembered that the address on her boarding address seemed to be the police station.
Did something happen to the girl's family?
Thinking of the girl's abnormal reaction, the driver nodded to himself.
Then, he began to laugh at himself. He had grown up and was so timid, yet he still thought that this girl was a lunatic asylum's little madman. If word of this got out, he was afraid that he would laugh his teeth out!
Shaking his head, the driver started driving again in the direction of the police station.
"??" Huo Yaoting heard Ye Xi's helpless and pitiful voice, and in his heart, he pulled painfully. He really wanted to fly to her side right now and hug her.
'Hate me. If I can't be by her side now, I would be extremely scared when I see her being so timid! '
"Hubby, what should we do?" Ye Xi didn't want to cry, but after hearing his voice, all of the fear, fear, helplessness and unknow ess flooded over and engulfed her like a flood. She was unable to control herself.
A gu y sack of drugs, no matter how ignorant she was, she knew how serious the plot was. If she were to be convicted, it was very likely that she would be sentenced to life!
She had very few relatives, and apart from someone, there was only her mother.
How could she just sit by and watch as something happened to her?
Tears rolled down her red eyes like a flood.
"Xiao Xi, listen to your husband. Calm down first." Huo Yaoting's voice was slightly hoarse as he gasped for air.
Ye Xi covered his eyes and shook his head, "Hubby, I, I can't calm down, I'm scared..."You don't know, my mother was taken away by the police. Hubby, what should I do?"
"You are not afraid of Xiao Xi, Xiao Xi is good. Now, listen to your husband. Don't go to the police station yet. Didn't eat in the morning, did you? Find a place to eat first, and then we can go after an hour." Huo Yaoting said.
"Hubby, how can I eat it now?" Ye Xi's mind was full of the matter of Xu Qiu being taken away.
Her mother wasn't actually much braver than she was. Now that she was taken away by the police and left alone in the police station, she must have been terrified.
Yet, he told her not to go to the police station. Was he, or did he not, know what Xu Qiu meant to her?
"Xiao Xi, your husband can assure you that in an hour, my mother-in-law will be safe and sound." Huo Yaoting knew that the little girl had misunderstood that he did not care about his mother-in-law, and sighed helplessly.
"??" When Ye Xi heard his words, she froze for a moment. Her natural instinct trusted him, which allowed her fluctuating emotions to calm down slightly.
With a glimmer of hope in his heart, Ye Xi couldn't help but sit up straight. His tears were stuck in his eyes as he asked in a hoarse voice, "Really?"
"Yes." When has your husband ever lied to you! " Huo Yaoting comforted her softly.
Ye Xi's tears flowed again as she nodded her head, "Alright, I'll listen to your husband."
"Good boy."
In truth, Ye Xi did not listen to Huo Yaoting, she wanted to listen to him. But not even five minutes after she got out of the taxi, she could not hold back her worry and took a taxi to the police station.
Only, Ye Xi did not expect that when she arrived at the police station, she still could not see Xu Qiu.
Because Xu Qiu had already been brought to the Drug Enforcement Squadron.
Ye Xi panicked, and without stopping, rushed to the Drug Enforcement Squadron.
The taxi stopped in front of the Drug Enforcement Unit. Ye Xi anxiously got off the car, and just as he was about to rush inside, he saw Xu Qiu and a man in a dark grey coloured suit holding a briefcase walking down from the stairs.
