Qin's face turned pale.

Qin Tianhai calmly said, "Don't worry, Yu Bao will be fine. Let's go report to the authorities and look for her."

Qin Tianhai reassured Qin Shi, telling her not to worry.

Qin quickly calmed down and settled the shop first.

She looked apologetically at the people in line and said, "I'm really sorry everyone, things happened suddenly, so we have to close the shop today. Please come back to buy tomorrow."

After Qin finished explaining, everyone expressed their understanding.

After closing the shop, Qin and Qin Tianhai immediately headed straight for the government office.

The news that someone everyone had heard about had been kidnapped spread quickly.

Many people have consulted Qin Jin'an for fortune telling.

Losing something, being betrayed by a brother, etc...

People's first reaction was, "No way, she could have been kidnapped?"

She's been kidnapped, how could she possibly figure it out herself?

Upon receiving the report, Li Qingyun immediately reported it to his superiors.

Xiao Yuebai quickly learned the news.

"Qin Jin'an has been kidnapped? Are you sure it's Qin Jin'an?"

Xiao Yuebai was extremely shocked; she was a little fairy!

Jiang Xun also found it somewhat unbelievable.

"It's confirmed. The person who reported the case is in the government office. Lord Li said the matter was special, so he sent his subordinate to report it."

Li Qingyun's official position in Liuzhou City was not high; he was still under Xiao Yuebai's jurisdiction, and he generally wouldn't rush to report unless there was something important.

Xiao Yuebai stood up and said seriously, "Let's go, take me there."

Jiang Xun followed.

After Qin Tianhai took Qin Shi to report the case, Qin Shi wanted to return to her courtyard.

Qin thought of the gray rat, and although they couldn't understand each other's language, she still wanted to ask about it.

Qin Tianhai stayed.

Qin hurriedly went to the small courtyard.

Back in the courtyard, Qin called anxiously for Gray Mouse.

"Grey, Little Grey, can you come out for a moment?"

Qin's shouts startled the gray rat, which then crawled out.

It didn't know what was happening or why Qin's voice sounded so anxious.

"Grey, our baby is missing. Have you heard or seen anything suspicious?"

Qin looked at the gray rat in front of her and asked a question.

In the past, she would be afraid of mice.

But now, she hopes these special little things can help her find her baby fish.

The gray mouse understood; it turned out that Fish Treasure was missing.

It immediately became anxious.

"Squeak squeak squeak—"

Find White Spot, find White Spot! White Spot is a good dog, it will find the fish treasure.

But it was jumping around so much that Qin couldn't understand what it was trying to say.

"Squeak squeak squeak—"

I'm so anxious! I need to think of something!

It was just a mouse, and its sense of smell was nowhere near as good as a dog's.

Yu Bao has fattened up that dog up; it's time for it to show off.

Qin couldn't understand either, and she sighed.

Seeing that Qin seemed to be leaving, the gray rat jumped down and bit Qin's clothes.

Finally, it pulled Qin Shi into the house. Looking at the white paper on the table, the gray rat slipped out, but quickly returned. It walked around the paper and wrote the character "白" (white).

I don't know how to write the dot character, but I added a few black dots after the white character.

It has known Qin Jin'an for so many months, and it has watched Qin Jin'an learn to read many times.

It can't learn anything too complicated; it's just a mouse, so naturally it won't force itself to learn to read like a human.

Qin finally understood.

"White Dot, you said you were looking for White Dot."

Qin said to the gray rat.

The gray mouse nodded excitedly.

Right, find that fat dog!

Its friend is missing, so naturally it has to go find him.

The gray mouse didn't take a nap; instead, it slipped away quickly through the crack in the door.

They clearly don't understand anything.

Qin, however, was able to know what the gray rat was doing.

She also hurriedly went out.

They then returned to the government office and met up with Qin Tianhai.

"Aunt Qin, don't worry, we will definitely find Yu Bao."

Jiang Xun spoke to Qin Shi.

Jiang Xun felt that things weren't that simple, but no matter what happened, he firmly believed that Qin Jin'an would be safe.

If anyone could easily hurt her, given Su Chang'an's temperament, this child wouldn't live to see home.

Qin said to Qin Tianhai, "Dad, let's go home first and bring Diandian here to help us look for it. It has a keen sense of smell and might be able to lead us to Guaibao."

Qin Tianhai nodded, having forgotten about that.

"Don't worry, we will definitely find them. Everything leaves a trace."

Xiao Yuebai also calmly spoke up, saying that putting everything else aside, Qin Jin'an's great kindness to his daughter deserved a thorough investigation.

Everything leaves a trace, unless she is Qin Jin'an.

No human traces could be found when the Su family's cloth shop was burned down. The few animal tracks that were so few as to be negligible were not considered by anyone, but Xiao Yuebai felt that perhaps that was the truth.

Qin Tianhai nodded before leaving with Qin Shi.

Xiao Yuebai took Jiang Xun out as well.

——

When the news reached the Su family, they all wore gloating smiles.

Qian Min sent her maid to find Su Chang'an. She rarely saw him anymore and didn't give him any money.

Su Chang'an wasn't in a hurry and stayed in the mansion as a patient.

Qian Min sent someone to call him, and he came immediately.

Qian Min looked at him and immediately frowned.

"My lord, I know you don't want war, but you should still pay a little attention to your image..."

Min didn't say anything more about the money; she believed Su Chang'an understood on his own.

Su Chang'an has gained weight.

In less than a month, he has gained weight.

He was faking illness, but he actually believed he was seriously ill.

They eat so well every day, but they don't train.

Qian Min felt a tightness in her chest and felt extremely unhappy.

Su Chang'an wasn't ugly, but he wasn't particularly handsome either. He had regular features, but he'd lost his former heroic air, and now he'd gained weight...

Qian Min picked up her teacup and drank water, no longer looking at Su Chang'an.

She asked calmly, "Qin Jin'an has been kidnapped. Does this have anything to do with you?"

Su Chang'an laughed, unable to suppress his smugness.

“Minmin, you won’t believe me even if I say it has nothing to do with me. I’ve said it before, it’s safe to get rid of her as soon as possible. I’m the son-in-law of the Qian family, and if the investigation comes to me, the Qian family will be blamed. Minmin, think about it carefully.”

Su Chang'an smiled at Qian Min. It didn't matter if Qian Min didn't like him or looked down on him, because they were going to be tied together forever anyway.

Qian Min refused to take action, but now, can she still remain inactive?

Qian Min felt nauseous looking at Su Chang'an's sinister appearance. She took another sip of water with a cold face and asked, "Who captured her? Will they want her dead?"

Su Chang'an pondered for a moment before replying, "I don't know. Whether I can survive is hard to say. Perhaps surviving would be a form of suffering."

Falling into the hands of barbarians, it's better to be dead than alive.

They didn't care whether she was a child or not.

That brat didn't want to side with him, so whether she lives or dies is none of his business. In short, it's better if Qin Jin'an is dead.

While she was alive, the Qin family gradually improved. He would be unhappy for the rest of his life, so it was better that she died. Her life was worse than death, and Qin Yuwan would suffer. That would be even better!
