Chapter 315 Something Happened to Li Tingshen

Gu Mian's pupils suddenly contracted!

"You kidnapped Xiaobao!"

"Pei Jianchuan is indeed very cautious, and Li Tingshen has also arranged for someone to secretly protect Xiaobao. It's just a pity that I have been eyeing Xiaobao for a long time."

Just as Gu Mian was about to ask for clarification, Pei Jianchuan called.

Gu Mian answered the call hurriedly, "Jianchuan!"

"Gu Mian, Xiaobao is missing."

"I just learned from Gu Xingzhi that he was the one who kidnapped Xiaobao!"

"It really is him." Pei Jianchuan said angrily, "He is at his wit's end and actually used Xiaobao to threaten you!"

"I will call the police and blockade the area immediately to prevent Xiaobao from being taken away from the capital! We will meet at Yunyue Bay to discuss countermeasures together!"

"good."

......

When Gu Mian returned to Yunyue Bay, Pei Jianchuan had already arrived.

"Gu Mian, I have checked it out." Pei Jianchuan said to himself, "The bodyguard in the car was knocked unconscious and left on the roadside. The driver and Xiaobao are missing as well."

"Gu Xingzhi did tell me on the phone that he had been eyeing Xiaobao for a long time, so the driver was most likely Gu Xingzhi's man."

"It's my fault." Pei Jianchuan blamed himself. "I have been very strict and I always check the background of people when I hire them. I didn't expect that I was not careful enough and Gu Xingzhi took advantage of me."

"The police and our personnel are already stepping up their search."

"I'm going to control Gu Xingzhi right now! If Xiaobao doesn't come back, he won't survive!"

"Jianchuan, don't be impulsive." Gu Mian advised calmly, "Gu Xingzhi stays in his villa and rarely goes out."

"Ting Shen secretly arranged for people and drones to investigate. His villa is not that simple. At least there are layers of agencies set up to prevent anyone from returning."

"But how can I sit still!" Pei Jianchuan's face turned pale. "If something happens to Xiaobao, how can I explain to his dead mother?"

"Xiaobao will be fine." Gu Mian comforted, "I won't let anything happen to Xiaobao..."

......

Late at night, everything is quiet.

In the darkness, Gu Mian opened his eyes, got out of bed in the dark, followed his intuition to go around to Li Tingshen, and quietly took away his phone.

More than an hour later, Gu Mian put the phone back to its place and lay back on the bed.

Although a thorough search was launched, 24 hours later, there was still no trace of Xiaobao.

The police wanted to talk to Gu Xingzhi, but because there was no real evidence to prove that he had kidnapped Xiaobao, the police could not do anything to him and had to let the case go.

In the next few days, the task of finding Xiaobao was handed over to Li Tingshen and Pei Jianchuan, while Gu Mian stayed at home to take care of Nian Nian.

It was past eleven o'clock in the evening when Li Tingshen returned to the master bedroom. Nian Nian was sleeping soundly next to Gu Mian.

"Are you back?" Gu Mian asked in a low voice, "Any news about Xiaobao?"

"Not yet. President Pei and I have expanded the search area."

"Yeah." Gu Mian stood up and said, "Shall I go make you some midnight snack?"

"good."

"Then you wash up first."

"good."

When Li Tingshen came out of the shower, Nian Nian had already been carried back to the next room.

He put on his pajamas and went downstairs, where he saw Gu Mian busy in the kitchen.

Li Tingshen stood at the door of the kitchen, looking at her quietly, enjoying the tranquility of the moment.

Perhaps Gu Mian sensed something, and suddenly turned around, saw Li Tingshen, and smiled at him brilliantly, "Why don't you say anything?"

"I want to take a good look at you." Li Tingshen walked forward and hugged her from behind, "Thank you for your hard work, my wife."

"It's just cooking a bowl of noodles, what's the hard part?"

"Gu Mian, maybe you will never understand how I felt when I came home and saw you and Nian Nian just now."

That feeling of happiness is hard to describe, and even the most beautiful words in the world cannot describe it.

If possible, he would give up everything he had, take her and her daughter away from the imperial capital, find a place where no one knew them, and live the most ordinary life.

It’s a pity that they are caught in a vortex and have no choice.

"Ting Shen, I probably understand a little bit." Gu Mian curled his lips, "When I was a child, when my grandfather went out to see a doctor, no matter how late he came back, my grandmother would always leave a light on for him. There would always be a separate meal for him on the dining table."

"When grandpa came back, he made very little noise, but grandma seemed to be able to sense it. She went to greet him and heated up a meal for him. The two of them sat at the dining table. She watched grandpa eat while chatting with him about the day."

"This scene has been engraved in my mind since I was a child. I think it is the embodiment of happiness."

"I have always thought that we should be like my grandparents, supporting each other until we grow old."

Li Ting hugged her tightly, his voice low and hoarse, "Gu Mian, I'm sorry. Marrying me has made you endure too much. You have hardly had a peaceful day."

"Yes, our love has always had a time difference. When I loved you, you didn't love me. When you fell in love with me, we separated for various reasons. Now that we are finally reunited, something goes wrong again..."

Gu Mian turned around and looked up at him, "But Ting Shen, these days I look back and re-evaluate the path we took, and I find that I have no regrets."

"I don't regret falling in love with you, I don't regret marrying you, and I don't regret giving birth to Nian Nian. With the two of you, my life is complete."

Gu Mian's tears fell, "Not to mention, I have had the most selfless love from my grandparents since I was a child, and now I have found my own family, my biological mother."

The man wiped away the tears on her face with his thin fingertips, "I'm sorry, I owe you too much love..."

Gu Mian shook his head, "Don't say that. There has never been any debt between us, because I know that your love is no less than mine."

Li Tingshen lowered his head and kissed her lips.

Gu Mian couldn't control his tears, which slid down his face and fell between the two people's intertwined lips.

The salty taste of tears spread in the mouth, and the two people kissed passionately.

It was not until the lid of the pot beside him was lifted that Gu Mian suddenly reacted, pushed him away and went to turn off the fire.

“The noodles are ready!”

Li Tingshen looked at her rosy face and couldn't help but raise his hand to pinch it, "Mrs. Li, can I choose to eat something else instead of noodles?"

Gu Mian was about to ask him what he wanted to eat, but when he met his deep eyes, he suddenly realized that this man was thinking about that!

"No, only noodles!"

"Just kidding." Li Tingshen laughed softly, "I'll help you serve it."

The two of them came to the restaurant with their noodles and chatted while eating.

But the content of the conversation all revolved around Nian Nian, and there was no mention of Gu Xingzhi.

After having supper, it was already past midnight.

Gu Mian went back to her room and took a shower. As soon as she lay down on the bed, the man next to her turned over and kissed her directly.

Gu Mian slowly raised her hands to hug his neck, closed her eyes, and responded to his kiss...

......

Time seemed to be stretched infinitely, and when everything calmed down, Gu Mian already had the illusion that he didn't know what day it was.

She only felt that she was thrown into the clouds by Li Tingshen countless times, and the whole person was floating so lightly that she could hardly control herself.

Li Tingshen carried Gu Mian to the bathroom and took another shower.

Gu Mian returned to the bed, feeling drowsy. She subconsciously hugged the man's neck and said, "Go to sleep."

"Okay." Li Ting kissed her forehead deeply, "Good night, Mrs. Li."

"Um."

Gu Mian closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

......

Gu Mian had a very long dream.

In her dream, she returned to the day when she first met Li Tingshen.

After Li Tingshen chased away the boys surrounding her, he did not leave. Instead, he turned around and looked at her.

In the sunlight of the autumn morning, their eyes met.

The boy had a coldness that was not in line with his age, but there was a smile in his deep eyes.

He opened his thin lips and greeted Gu Mian, "Gu Mian, hello."

Gu Mian smiled, but tears welled up in his eyes, "How do you know my name?"

"Because we will get married in the future and be together forever."

"Yes, we will get married." Gu Mian burst into tears, "But it's really hard to be together forever..."

The boy looked at her deeply and said, "It may be difficult to be together forever, but Gu Mian, I will always love you."

Just as Gu Mian was about to speak, he saw the figure of the young man in front of him disappearing little by little.

"Ting Shen!" Gu Mian rushed forward anxiously and tried to catch him, but missed.

She was the only one around, and there was no sign of Li Tingshen at all!

"Ting Shen! Ting Shen!" Gu Mian called him anxiously, "Where are you? Ting Shen!"

"Madam? Madam!"

Gu Mian suddenly opened his eyes and saw the servant's anxious face in front of him.

"Ma'am, are you having a nightmare?"

Gu Mian finally calmed down and said, "I'm fine. What time is it now?"

"A little after three in the afternoon."

"It's afternoon?" Gu Mian hurriedly sat up and picked up the mobile phone on the bedside table, but found that it was turned off.

She turned on the phone and asked, "Why did I sleep for so long? Where's Ting Shen?"

"When I got up early in the morning, Mr. Cheng was not at home. Special Assistant Cheng came home and told us not to wake you up, so we didn't dare to wake you up."

Gu Mian felt inexplicably nervous.

After turning on the phone, Gu Mian couldn't wait to call Li Tingshen, but it said the phone was turned off.

Gu Mian didn't have time to think about it. Just as he was about to call the programmer, Pei Jinchuan called.

Gu Mian quickly picked up the phone, "Jinchuan?"

"Gu Mian, I found Xiaobao."

"Really?" Gu Mian asked in surprise, "You found Xiaobao? Is he not injured?"

"Xiaobao is fine. Li Tingshen rescued him."

"What's going on?" Gu Mian asked, "Where's Ting Shen? I couldn't get through to him on his cell phone. Where is he?"

Pei Jianchuan said with difficulty, "Gu Mian, I'm sorry, you have to be mentally prepared."

"What do you mean?" Gu Mian's face turned pale. "He...something happened, right?"

"In order to save Xiaobao, President Li agreed to let Gu Xingzhi use himself in exchange for Xiaobao."

"Gu Xingzhi made full preparations, but he was not prepared for President Li to return safely."

"I heard from Xiaobao that the two of them were on the cliff, pointing their guns at each other, both fired their guns, and both were hit by bullets, and finally fell off the cliff together."

"Falling off a cliff..." Gu Mian's hand holding the phone trembled, "Where is the exact location? I want to find him..."

"In Haicheng."

......

When Gu Mian arrived in Haicheng, it was already dark.

The scene was at the edge of a cliff, with many rescue workers, and Pei Jianchuan was directing the search and rescue.

"Sleep."

"Jinchuan, have you found Tingshen?"

"Not yet." Pei Jianchuan said, "This cliff is too high, and there is the sea at the bottom of the cliff, so search and rescue is very difficult."

"The rescue team said that if you fall from here, there is almost no chance of survival."

"I know." Gu Mian shuddered violently, tears falling down, "I've been here, I know the situation here..."

Because this mountain is too steep, it has not been developed and even the entire climb up the mountain has to be on foot.

But the scenery here is beautiful. She and her classmates came here for hiking twice during school.

Gu Mian walked towards the cliff step by step, knelt on the ground, stuck his head out to look at the dark bottom of the cliff, and was so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe.

"Li Tingshen, why didn't you discuss this with me? Why did you take the risk alone? Why!"

"Gu Mian, don't do this." Pei Jianchuan hurriedly pulled her back, "It's dangerous here!"

"I have already asked about the procedure, and even he didn't know about Mr. Li's actions. It seems that he didn't let anyone know."

Gu Mian was stunned. "Is it because he knows that this trip will not return?"

So he had made the decision long ago.

Was last night's entanglement and tenderness his and her final farewell?

No, it shouldn't be like this!

Gu Mian was in a trance when Yan Mu's voice suddenly came from behind him, "Gu Mian."

Gu Mian turned his head and looked, "Yan Mu..."

Yan Mu squatted down in front of her and said, "I came here to tell you a good news. Doctor Lu has been found."

"What did you say?" Gu Mian was surprised. "When did it happen? Where did you find it?"

"As you and Ting Shen expected, the person is trapped in northern Myanmar." Yan Mu said, "From the videos of the past few days, the program led the hackers under its command to lock the suspect and his location. An hour ago, it successfully rescued Doctor Lu."

Gu Mian asked hurriedly, "How is she?"

"Except for the injured finger, there is no other serious problem. She has been sent to the hospital for a physical examination." Yan Mu said comfortingly, "Don't worry, there are enough people there to protect her. After the physical examination, she will be sent back to see you immediately."

Gu Mian suddenly realized what was happening and asked, "Did Ting Shen and you arrange to save Dr. Lu? Why are you so calm when Ting Shen got into trouble? You knew what he was going to do, right?"

"Gu Mian, I'm sorry." Yan Mu said harshly, "I have never been able to stop Ting Shen from doing something. Especially since it's for you."

Gu Mian was stunned, "Please explain clearly..."

"Ting Shen already knew that you had touched his phone." Yan Mu held her trembling shoulders and said in a deep voice, "Although you deleted the chat history, with his ability, he can find everything back."

"He knows that you are using his name to look for Gu Xingzhi, and then you will pretend to be him to look for Gu Xingzhi to rescue Xiaobao. He knows everything."

"But Gu Mian, he loves you so much, how could he watch you die?"

"Ting Shen told me that if there was someone who was destined to die with Gu Xingzhi to end all this, then that person could only be him..."
