Han Xiao felt heartbroken at the thought of his grandson and daughter-in-law. The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. If his daughter-in-law and grandson were really taken abroad by the scorpion, he didn't know if he would ever see them again in his lifetime.
I wonder how much more suffering the daughter-in-law and grandson will endure.
If their daughter-in-law and grandson were really taken abroad, they simply cannot find them with their current abilities. Where in the world can they even begin to search for them?
He now only hopes that the scorpion didn't kill his daughter-in-law and child, and that his daughter-in-law can save herself and return with her child in the future. He will also send people to keep searching.
They used to be a happy family, but now their son is separated from his wife and children. The family is broken.
He felt guilty; the things his mother-in-law had said earlier made him feel ashamed and speechless.
Because what her mother-in-law said was true; it was all the Han family's fault that Yuhan and the child were implicated. Yuhan had indeed faced life-threatening dangers multiple times. If it weren't for her good fortune and the protection of her precious child, she might have already perished.
Everyone rushed Yu Huiru to the hospital, where she was given emergency treatment and was out of danger. However, the doctor said that Yu Huiru had suffered a heart attack due to the shock and needed to rest and avoid further stress.
Yesterday was He Zhendong's wedding night, but such a terrible thing happened. There was no joy in the house; everyone was immersed in deep grief.
Seeing that it was already dawn, He Chenglin said to his second son, "Zhendong, Jingyun must be very worried taking care of the child alone at home. You take everyone back to rest. Your older brother and I are here."
Xicheng, you still have work to do. Go back to work first. If anyone needs your help, they will definitely come to you.
We don't have any better options right now, so we can only send people to search secretly. We can't rush things.
He Zhendong nodded and said, "Dad, please take care of yourself. I believe my little sister and the child will be alright. Given how much Scorpion hates Han Yixian, if he killed my little sister and the child, he would definitely tell Yixian to make him suffer. The fact that Scorpion hasn't contacted us means that my little sister and the child are still safe and sound."
This is what everyone hopes for.
He Zhendong took the Liang and Du families home.
Huo Xicheng also went back. He Zhendong was no longer in charge of his work.
After seeing everyone off, He Chenglin said to Han Yixian, "Yixian, your mother is also upset. Don't take what she said to heart. She'll be fine afterward."
Han Yixian said with red eyes, "Dad, how could I blame Mom? I'm just ashamed and hate myself for being so incompetent. What Mom said is true. Yuhan has suffered a lot and gone through a lot of danger because of me. I failed to protect Yuhan."
No matter what, I will rescue Yuhan and the child. Scorpion's target is me; he will definitely use Yuhan and the child as hostages to lure me in. He might contact me soon.
He Zhenhua had a different thought in mind and said, "Yixian, have you ever thought about what if Scorpion didn't even look for you? What if Scorpion didn't kill Yuhan and the child, but instead took them abroad? In this vast world, where would you find them?"
Han Yixian's face turned deathly pale upon hearing this; he couldn't bear to imagine what would happen if Yuhan and the child were controlled by Scorpion and ended up abroad. He shuddered to think what would become of them. He'd rather Scorpion come after him.
He Zhenhua sighed and said, "I don't think that scorpion would risk sailing the sea in just a small fishing boat. He most likely arranged for a large ship to pick him up in advance."
He probably knows we simply don't have the resources to send ships to pursue them in time. After a night at sea, we have no way to make a move. Who knows which direction they'll go? Although ships set out to search at dawn, I estimate the chances of finding them are slim.
The only hope now is to find that fishing boat; perhaps we can learn something from it.
After listening to his son's words, He Chenglin also thought of several possibilities. He felt that his daughter's crisis this time was more serious than the last one, and he wondered when they would be able to find Yuhan and the child.
Han Yixian clenched his fists, making a cracking sound. His face was pale, and his eyes were bloodshot, but he still said firmly, "No matter what, no matter how long it takes, I will keep searching. If I can't find them in China, I will search abroad. I will not give up until I find them."
He Chenglin knew that his son-in-law was more upset than anyone else, so he couldn't bear to blame him anymore and said, "Yixian, Zhenhua and I will stay here. You go back and keep an eye on Yuhan and the child."
Han Yixian knew there was no point in staying, so he went home. He now hoped that the fishing boat would be found as soon as possible.
He Yuhan was locked in the cargo hold, where she discovered it was filled with all sorts of boxes. She opened several boxes and found they contained fabrics, medicines, tobacco, liquor, and various other items, even antiques, and some that looked like luggage.
Looking at these things, He Yuhan felt that this was definitely not an ordinary cargo ship; there was no way the cargo could be so messy.
Although she didn't know what was inside many of the boxes she hadn't opened, they were clearly not ordinary items, as some of them were made of very precious wood and couldn't possibly be used to store ordinary things.
Because most of the boxes were locked, He Yuhan was afraid that someone might come down at any time, so she didn't dare to open them to see what was inside.
She found a secluded corner, entered the space, fed the child some milk, and put the child in the crib.
The child was tired from the journey, so after drinking milk, he fell asleep again, being very well-behaved.
He Yuhan didn't dare linger in the space and quickly left.
She peered out of the cargo hold, listening intently to the sounds outside. Her hearing was exceptionally sharp, far superior to most, and she could hear voices coming from inside the hold and on the deck. She hoped to glean some useful information.
At noon, Han Yixian and his group received news that the people who went out to sea to search had found a fishing boat. There was one person on the boat, but he had been killed, and there was no trace of the others.
The investigation revealed that the fishing boat belonged to a village on the coast of City D. The people on board were also from that village.
The fishing boats all belong to the brigade; that particular fishing boat was stolen.
A child's shoe was also found on the boat, which was the one Xiao Xurui was wearing. This confirms that the boat was the fishing boat that He Yuhan and her friends had been on.
Han Yi first thought of what He Zhenhua had said, and knew that there must be someone at sea to meet Scorpion. He wondered where Yuhan and the child had been taken by the moth.
Han Xiao also made many phone calls, asking people to keep an eye on some of the docks along the coast.
However, Han Xiao felt it was unlikely that Scorpion would stay in China. With a ship, they could go to many neighboring countries. Once they reached those countries, Scorpion and his crew would truly disappear without a trace.
