Nan Chen remained unmoved in the face of his threats.
He turned his head away, not even looking at Beichen.
Seeing that he didn't react, Bei Chen snorted coldly and turned to leave.
Nan Chen wanted to persuade him, but seeing how determined he was, she could only sigh heavily and pray that nothing bad would happen to him.
More than ten minutes after Beichen left, Nanchen was still worried. He couldn't care less about anything else and took the initiative to find Shen Yanxi.
Upon hearing Nan Chen's words, Shen Yanxi's face instantly darkened: "You mean, Bei Chen went to find his father on his own?"
"Yes, he said that Mom doesn't want us anymore."
Nan Chen cautiously raised his head, his eyes filled with nervousness as he looked at Shen Yanxi. His two little hands were clasped together as he softly asked her, "Mommy, are you really not going to keep us?"
Shen Yanxi squatted down, her eyes full of tenderness: "How could Mommy not want you? Beichen misheard, Mommy and Uncle Zhou are discussing other things."
"But he said, Uncle Zhou wants you to take us to Dad's place."
Nan Chen opened his arms and hugged Shen Yanxi, pleading, "I don't want to go."
Hearing his words, Shen Yanxi's eyes reddened, and she hugged Nan Chen tightly: "Don't worry, Mom will never hand you over to He Lingchuan, and Mom won't give Bei Chen to him either."
The most urgent task is to find Beichen. He's just a little kid, he doesn't know the way, and we don't know where he's gone.
After settling Nanche in, Shen Yanxi didn't dare to delay for a moment and immediately called He Lingchuan.
The person on the other end sounded tired, with a hint of impatience in their tone.
"What are you doing now?"
Ignoring his harsh tone, Shen Yanxi dressed while informing him, "Nanchen said Beichen went to look for you. Did you see him?"
He Lingchuan, who had been feeling sleepy, immediately sat up upon hearing this: "What did you say? Bei Chen came looking for me?"
Shen Yanxi frowned, knowing that Bei Chen definitely hadn't arrived yet.
Logically speaking, it's been so long, Beichen should have arrived by now, even if he had walked there.
Shen Yanxi thought of the worst-case scenario and her mind became somewhat heavy: "I'm coming to find you now. Wait for me, and then we'll go out together to find Beichen."
He Lingchuan had been discussing with Gu Chengze where to open a studio, but now he had lost interest.
He dressed as fast as he could: "Why am I waiting for you? The person is gone, hurry up and go look for them!"
He Lingchuan's voice rose, and his face grew increasingly grim. He angrily questioned the person opposite him, "What exactly happened? What did you say to the children? Why did he come to see me alone so late at night?"
He Lingchuan searched the surrounding area as quickly as possible. He was panting heavily and couldn't help but complain to Shen Yanxi, "How could you say these things in front of the child?"
Shen Yanxi was even more anxious than him. She didn't even put on her coat and came over in just a few minutes.
Shen Yanxi's face darkened, and her tone was unfriendly: "How was I supposed to know they were just outside the door? Besides, isn't this all because of you?"
He vented all his anger on He Lingchuan, believing that it was all He Lingchuan's fault: "If it weren't for you, why would Zhou Mingyan suddenly propose to me? It's all because your attitude towards me has been too bad lately, making him feel that I'm neglecting him."
He Lingchuan was almost laughing in anger at Shen Yanxi: "You were the one who came to me all by yourself. You can't even handle your own issues with Zhou Mingyan. Not only did you lose the child, but you still have the nerve to blame me?"
Shen Yanxi's face turned bright red. She didn't care about anything else and stood by the roadside arguing with He Lingchuan.
Gu Chengze interrupted them both with a displeased look: "Alright, the most important thing now is to find the child as soon as possible."
He frowned, imagining where Bei Chen might have gone: "Ling Chuan, do you think it's possible that Bei Chen went to find Cao Xue?"
"impossible."
Without a second thought, He Lingchuan immediately dismissed his guess: "If he can't even find me here, how could he possibly be looking for Cao Xue?"
Moreover, Nan Chen had already clearly told Shen Yanxi that Bei Chen had come to find him.
If Beichen hadn't gotten lost, he should have arrived long ago, a journey of only ten minutes or so.
He Lingchuan was panting heavily. He now had to suspect that Shen Yanxi and Zhou Mingyan were doing this on purpose: "Shen Yanxi, if you don't want to raise the child, just tell me directly. Why use such methods?"
Bei Chen is a meticulous person, and every word Shen Yanxi says can make him overthink.
He Lingchuan couldn't imagine what would happen if he, a little kid, encountered danger outside.
He paced back and forth anxiously, his face growing increasingly grim. His eyes were filled with anger as he lowered his head and warned Shen Yanxi, "You'd better hope you're alright after being hit by the car, otherwise, I will absolutely not let you off the hook, including Zhou Mingyan."
...
After leaving Shen Yanxi's place, Bei Chen followed the route he remembered, but after walking for almost twenty minutes, he still couldn't see his familiar home.
Beichen was exhausted and thirsty, and sat in a daze at the entrance of the convenience store.
As night grew darker, Beichen curled up into a ball, his voice trembling, "Dad, where are you?"
He regretted it; he should have waited for his mother to send them away, just like Nan Chen.
He looked at the passersby, wanting to ask them for help, but didn't know how to start the conversation.
He was afraid these people were bad guys, but he didn't dare stay here alone.
Beichen stood at the door for a while, encouraging himself again and again: "Beichen, come on, you're a brave kid, you just need to borrow a phone."
He bit his lower lip and was about to go over when he heard a familiar voice behind him.
"Beichen, what are you doing here?"
Bei Chen froze, looking in the direction of the sound.
The moment he saw Cao Xue, his nose stung, he pursed his lips, and almost cried out, "Aunt Cao Xue."
Seeing his swollen face and blackened white shirt, Cao Xue quickly hugged him.
She gently wiped away Beichen's tears, and only spoke after he had completely calmed down: "Why are you here alone? Where is your mother?"
Cao Xue knew that Shen Yanxi wouldn't allow them to be with He Lingchuan, and looked puzzled: "Why are you here alone? Is your mother next to you?"
When she saw Beichen just now, she thought she was seeing things. He Lingchuan would never let Beichen stay here alone.
Could it be that Shen Yanxi brought him here?
Cao Xue looked around but didn't see Shen Yanxi.
She cleared her throat and, while patting Bei Chen's back, asked him, "Bei Chen, did you come out alone?"
Upon hearing this, Bei Chen could no longer hide her grievances and began to cry loudly: "Mommy, Mommy doesn't want me anymore. I came out to find Daddy, but, but I got lost. Aunt Cao Xue, I'm so scared. I thought I would never see Daddy again."
