Chapter 1093 Having a nightmare?

Qiao Xing was surprised that Yang Han would suddenly appear. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the woman being stopped.

Xiao Lin got out of the car and saw the child in the woman's arms. The child's face was pale and the lips were slightly blue. "The child must have been given medicine. We need to get him to the hospital right away."

Upon hearing this, the child's biological mother's legs went weak and she nearly fainted.

Qin Ce said to Yang Han, "I'll handle things here. You take the child to the hospital first."

"no problem."

The woman and child were put into the car. Qin Ce asked Qiao Xing, "Did you call the police?"

Qiao Xing nodded. "We called the police."

The two human traffickers finally became frightened, and the woman kept begging for mercy.

"We're sorry, this is the first time. We really won't do it again. Please don't call the police..."

Qin Ce said, "You didn't steal our child, so whether or not we forgive you is not our business."

Qiao Xing said angrily, "What era is this? You actually snatched a child in broad daylight and even drugged the child. You have no conscience!"

The police arrived quickly, briefly inquired about the situation, and then took the two people away.

Qiao Xing was still somewhat worried. She said to the police, "The child they snatched was taken to the hospital. They drugged the child. Please, you must find out the truth and bring them to justice."

"Okay, we will look into the situation carefully."

Even after the police took him away, Qiao Xing still looked shaken.

Are you scared?

Qiao Xing didn't deny it. She said, "How could I not be scared? What if they had really taken the child away just now?"

No one knows what the future holds for this child.

What will her mother do now, and where will she go to look for her child?

Qin Ce comforted her, "It's alright, the greatest luck is that the child wasn't taken away."

Qiao Xing nodded.

But when she recalled what had just happened, she still felt a chill run down her spine.

She had no idea that human traffickers would stop at nothing to snatch children in such a way.

Nowadays, every family has its own troubles, and people often believe that even an upright official can't settle family disputes, so they rarely get involved in other people's business.

She found it hard to imagine whether, if it weren't for the fact that he had met that woman before, other people would have actually taken that man for the child's mother's so-called husband.

Back home, Qiao Xing was still thinking about the matter, so she simply called Xiao Lin to ask about the child's condition.

Xiao Lin said, "The child is fine. The doctor said that the dosage of the medicine they gave the child was not large and it was diluted. Apart from a slight impact on the child's stomach, there were no major problems."

Before Qiao Xing called, the police had already come to the hospital to find out what was going on.

Yang Han, as an eyewitness, also provided evidence to the police.

The child's mother's condition has also improved a lot. Having learned her lesson, she stays by her child's side at all times.

After Yang Han and Xiao Lin finished resolving the matter, they went back.

Qiao Xing felt much relieved after hearing this. "Thank you for your help."

Xiao Lin said, "There's no trouble or inconvenience in this kind of thing. The child is so young and pitiful. We should help as much as we can."

During dinner, Qiao Xing was somewhat restless.

Grandpa Qin asked, "Xin Xin, you've been acting strangely ever since you came back from the hospital. What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Qin Ce also glanced at Qiao Xing.

Qiao Xing snapped out of her thoughts and said, "It's nothing, I was just thinking about some things."

After Qiao Xing finished speaking, she picked up her chopsticks to pick up some food, but accidentally put them into Qin Ce's bowl.

Qin Ce paused, then frowned slightly. "What's wrong with you?"

Qiao Xing realized what was happening and felt a little embarrassed. "It's really nothing."

Qin Ce seemed to be deep in thought, but Qiao Xing didn't say anything, and he didn't press her for details.

Qiao Xing didn't sleep that night, but stayed by Er'er's side the whole time.

She did nothing but quietly watch her.

The nanny wanted to remind her to rest, but seeing how engrossed she was, she felt bad about disturbing her.

It was Qin Ce who reminded her, "It's time to go back to sleep."

Since Er'er turned one month old, she has been cared for by a nanny, who also feeds her at night.

Qiao Xing had gotten used to it, but for some reason today, she just couldn't bear to leave her child.

Qin Ce said, "If you're worried, why don't you take the child over?"

Qiao Xing shook her head. "It's been so long. If we suddenly take her back now, Aunt Zhang will overthink it."

Qiao Xing said, "I was probably affected by what happened during the day. It's okay, let's go back to sleep."

Qin Ce heard that she was alright, and since she really was, the two went back to their room to sleep.

But who knew that Qin Ce would suddenly hear someone talking beside him in the middle of the night.

He quickly got up and glanced at Qiao Xing beside him.

Qiao Xing had his eyes closed, his brows furrowed tightly, his forehead covered in sweat, and he kept muttering something incoherently.

Qin Ce guessed that she was probably having a nightmare.

"Qiao Xing?"

Qin Ce called out Qiao Xing's name, but Qiao Xing did not wake up.

Qin Ce knew that Qiao Xing was probably having a nightmare, so he couldn't wake her up too quickly.

He gently patted Qiao Xing's arm and called out again, "Qiao Xing, wake up?"

Qiao Xing must have dreamt of something extremely terrifying; his face turned pale, and he was trembling violently.

She kept saying, "Don't take my child away! No!"

Qin Ce sensed something was wrong and raised his voice a few decibels, "Qiao Xing, wake up quickly."

Qiao Xing suddenly opened his eyes and sat up.

She grabbed Qin Ce's arm, crying, "Qin Ce, the child! The child!"

Qin Ce wiped the sweat from her forehead and gently comforted her, "The child is asleep, it's alright. Did you have a nightmare?"

Qiao Xing didn't believe Qin Ce's words, so she simply got out of bed and went to the nanny's room.

The child was sleeping peacefully, and the nanny was watching over him.

Qiao Xing finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the child with her own eyes.

She had run there barefoot, so Qin Ce brought her slippers and put them on her.

What did you dream about?

Qiao Xing said, "I dreamt that someone was trying to take Er'er away. There were many people standing around, and no matter how much I begged them, it was no use. They even said I was sick and told me to give the child back to someone else."

Qin Ce frowned.

How come this plot is so similar to what happened during the day?

Were you frightened by what happened during the day?
