Displeased at being disturbed, Zhan Jingting asked, "What is it?"

"Brother Ting, save me..." Gu Runqiu's wailing voice rang out, "I'm about to die, please save me!"

Zhan Jingting frowned, threw back the covers to open the door, and saw Gu Runqiu standing outside, clutching her stomach. "What's wrong?"

"Ask Qiao Wanwan what she gave me to drink! I've been to the toilet more than ten times!"

Qiao Wanwan poked her head out and said, "Why don't you just sit on the toilet and not leave? That way you won't have to keep running around."

Gu Runqiu: "..."

"You little rascal, Qiao Wanwan, you knew I'd do this, didn't you!"

"I personally brewed this herbal tea for you, of course I know."

Gu Runqiu suddenly realized, "You...you...it's you!"

"Yes, yes, yes..." Qiao Wanwan mimicked his tone, "It's me!"

"Qiao Wanwan, you..." Gu Runqiu hadn't finished speaking when her stomach started hurting again, and she hurriedly went to find the restroom!

Qiao Wanwan laughed so hard she almost fell over. "So you called me Harley Quinn!"

Zhan Jingting: "......"

“Wanwan, he has been spoiled since childhood and cannot withstand any hardship.”

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Qiao Wanwan checked the time. "The effects of the medicine are almost worn off, and I've used good medicine for him, so I guarantee he won't get a sore throat starting tomorrow."

Zhan Jingting patted her hair and said, "Go to sleep."

"Um."

......

The next morning, Gu Runqiu appeared in the restaurant full of energy again, but he looked at Qiao Wanwan as if she were his father's killer.

Qiao Wanwan felt a surge of satisfaction. "Young Master Gu, why are you looking at me like that?"

"Qiao! Wan! Wan!" Gu Runqiu's eyes blazed with fury. "You! Are! Looking for! Death!"

"I love seeing you hate me to the core but can't do anything about it."

"you......"

"Alright." Zhan Jingting glanced at Gu Runqiu. "Can't you look in the mirror? Don't you notice your complexion is much better today?"

Gu Runqiu pursed her lips, "It seems so, I feel great all over today."

Ruan Tang smiled and said, "But Brother Jingting, no matter what, your wife shouldn't do such a thing to a guest. It's so impolite..."

Gu Runqiu chimed in, "Qiao Wanwan, did you hear that? She said you're rude."

Qiao Wanwan smiled faintly, "It seems you and your cousin share the same interests."

Gu Runqiu said, "Cousin, don't misunderstand. It's one thing for me to bicker with Qiao Wanwan, but I really respect her. After all, she's the one Brother Ting loves the most. You should treat her with the same respect as me, like a sister-in-law, right?"

Ruan Tang's smile was a little awkward. "Of course."

"That's good."

"......"

After dinner, Zhan Jingting went to his study, and Gu Runqiu followed him in. "Brother Ting, I'm just idling around anyway. You can give me some things to do to help me pass the time."

Zhan Jingting turned on his computer. "I don't have anything for you to do."

"No, aren't you looking for another child? Although I live abroad most of the time, I have some connections in the capital. I can help you."

“We really need to find the child as soon as possible.” Zhan Jingting’s eyes darkened slightly. “Wanwan doesn’t want me to worry, so she doesn’t say anything during the day and can even laugh and joke with you. But she has nightmares every night, and not a single night goes by without her dreaming about that child.”

“I heard from Jiang Dong that the only clue now is his father, Jiang Cheng. Moreover, the capital has already set up a tight net, and Jiang Cheng can’t escape. It’s only a matter of time before they find him.”

“A net of heaven and earth…” Zhan Jingting slowly closed his eyes. “Runqiu, tell me, if someone is surrounded by a net of heaven and earth, where would they go?”

"Of course, we should go to the safest place."

“The safest place…” Zhan Jingting smiled. “It seems it’s time for Jiang Cheng to show up.”

......

In the dead of night, the palatial manor was pitch black and eerily quiet.

A dark figure entered the house, turned on a mini flashlight, and was about to walk towards the room when he suddenly noticed something unusual about the direction the sofa was facing!

Before the flashlight could even shine, the living room lights were turned on!

The sudden bright light made him very uncomfortable. He shielded his eyes with his hand before slowly lowering them. The next second, he saw the young man sitting on the sofa!

Zhan Jingting crossed his long legs, leaned lazily against the sofa, and looked in his direction. "You've finally shown up."

With a "thud," the flashlight fell to the ground.

Zhan Jingting smirked, "What, even now, do you still want to wear a mask and not show your true face?"

He slowly walked towards Zhan Jingting. At this moment, Jiang Dong and his bodyguards rushed in from all directions, each raising a gun and aiming it at him!

He walked into the living room, stood across a coffee table from Zhan Jingting, and slowly removed the mask from his face.

"Dad..." Jiang Dong exclaimed in shock, "It really is you..."

Zhan Jingting looked at Jiang Cheng expressionlessly, "You're really not dead."

"Young Master..." Jiang Cheng knelt down immediately, "I thought that hiding in this uninhabited Zhan family old house would be impossible to be discovered, but I didn't expect that you still found it."

“The most dangerous place is the safest place. Since you can’t escape the net of the capital, hiding in the Zhan family is naturally the safest place. After all, no one wants to look for you in the Zhan family.” Zhan Jingting said calmly, “Tell me, what exactly happened?”

Jiang Cheng lowered his head and slowly recounted, "After I was in a car accident back then, I thought I was dead, but I didn't expect that I was destined to survive."

"Who saved you?" Zhan Jingting pressed. "To be precise, who was behind it all?"

Jiang Cheng raised his head, his face full of determination, "Young Master, I deceived the head of the Zhan family, please kill me!"

Zhan Jingting sneered, "Looks like you're not planning to say anything."

Jiang Cheng kowtowed forcefully, "Young Master, I am guilty, I only beg for death!"

“Dying is easy.” Zhan Jingting stared at him with cold eyes. “But do you think that once you die, everything will end here?”

Jiang Cheng straightened up, stared intently at him, and suddenly pulled out a gun from his body, pointing it at his own head!

Jiang Dong's pupils suddenly contracted. "No!"

"Bang!"

A gunshot rang out!

Jiang Dong's legs buckled, and he knelt down!

Jiang Cheng fell to the ground, clutching his bleeding right wrist with his left hand, sweating profusely from the pain!

He looked at the man on the sofa who was holding a gun, "Young...Young Master..."

"I allowed you to die? I can leave it at that for now, about who ordered you to die." Zhan Jingting's deep, cold eyes fixed on his face. "But you must tell me the whereabouts of my other child!"

Jiang Cheng's face turned pale. "Young Master, you...you know about the child..."

"explain."

"I don't know where the child is."

"You were the one who took the child and sent him to the Meng family for treatment, how could you not know!" Zhan Jingting roared. "Tell me! Where is the child?!"
