Chen Ningsheng stepped forward, reached out and tugged at Xu Xinchen's finger, a doting smile on his face: "Baby, it's okay. Let's stay here a little longer. If there's anything you want to say, we can go back and talk about it after those bastards are caught."
For Chen Ningsheng, nothing is more important than Xu Xinchen now. Since Xu Xinchen disappeared, he has been waking up from nightmares every night.
His dreams were filled with all sorts of bizarre and terrifying things, and every nightmare was related to Xu Xinchen. As a result, he was afraid to close his eyes at all. Now that he can see Xu Xinchen standing here completely intact, that is enough.
He dared not be greedy and ask for more, fearing that the happiness he had finally regained would be snatched away by someone else because of his greed. Thinking of how much suffering Xu Xinchen had endured when he couldn't see her, Chen Ningsheng felt as if his whole heart was being cut by a knife.
Thinking about what Xu Xinchen had been through recently, Chen Ningsheng patted her hand tenderly and pulled her to sit down on a chair nearby: "Baby, can you tell me how you've gotten through all this time?"
Xu Xinchen nodded slightly. These things would have to be recorded at the police station sooner or later. Even if she kept it from Chen Ningsheng now, it wouldn't make a difference. After she gave her statement, Chen Ningsheng could find out if he wanted to. It was better to just say it now.
“These past few days…” Xu Xinchen opened her mouth and began to recount everything that had happened to her since she went out to buy breakfast that day.
Chen Ningsheng's face was terribly gloomy, especially when he heard Xu Xinchen say that Sister Hua and Lao San were going to beat her up. The hatred in his eyes was even more uncontrollable. He raised his hand and slammed it hard on the table! His tone was terribly gloomy.
"Those bastards! How dare they!"
Looking at Chen Ningsheng, Xu Xinchen felt an unconcealable pity in her eyes. She reached out and patted the back of Chen Ningsheng's hand, saying with a tone of pity, "But I didn't let them succeed. Zhao Jun has always helped me, and they have never been able to hit me."
Chen Ningsheng's eyes were very deep. Zhao Jun seemed like a decent person. At least he knew how to protect Xu Xinchen and even helped her when she decided to run away.
Regardless, Chen Ningsheng remembered Zhao Jun's favor and would definitely repay it when he had the chance. Xu Xinchen clearly shared the same thought as Chen Ningsheng; she reached out and tugged at Chen Ningsheng's sleeve, her eyes full of anticipation.
“Ning Sheng, Zhao Jun helped me, so let’s help him too, okay? He looks so young, he really shouldn’t have run into this kind of thing. Besides, he didn’t do it on purpose. I can tell he regrets getting involved with Sister Hua and the others.”
Chen Ningsheng understood Xu Xinchen's meaning. He originally thought Zhao Jun was a good person who had come to his senses and repented. Moreover, if they succeeded in kidnapping Xu Xinchen, Zhao Jun would definitely get a lot of money.
Faced with these temptations, Zhao Jun was still able to help Xu Xinchen, which shows he is indeed a good person. If there is a chance to lend a hand, then so be it.
Having thought of this, Chen Ningsheng nodded decisively: "I understand. Leave the rest to me, baby, don't worry."
With Chen Ningsheng's assurance, Xu Xinchen felt much more at ease. Calming down, she realized that Lin Bingchun and the short-haired girl were both waiting for her behind her, and she had completely forgotten about them while talking to Chen Ningsheng…
Upon thinking of this, Xu Xinchen immediately stood up with an embarrassed expression, her eyes darting around as she searched for Lin Bingchun and the short-haired girl.
Lin Bingchun and the short-haired girl had already obediently left the police station and waited outside when they saw Xu Xinchen and Chen Ningsheng talking.
Those two aren't so clueless. Xu Xinchen and Chen Ningsheng were talking, and the police officers stayed inside because it was their duty and they couldn't leave.
But it was awkward for the two of them to be alone inside, even though it wasn't their business. In order to avoid making themselves or others feel awkward, they decided to avoid the awkwardness.
After discussing it, the two decided to tell the policewoman that they would go out for a while and then return to give their statements.
When Xu Xinchen couldn't find anyone, she understood what had happened. At that moment, she felt a deep sense of gratitude. She stood up and pulled Chen Ningsheng outside.
Since Lin Bingchun and the short-haired girl were going to come back to give their statements, they definitely wouldn't have gone far. They were probably just outside the gate or in the alley next door.
Sure enough, after the two of them went out, they saw Lin Bingchun and the short-haired girl squatting in front of an old man who was selling snacks from a shoulder pole, carefully selecting the items from the old man's basket.
"Uncle, how much is this?" Lin Bingchun took out a light yellow candy from her carrying pole and showed it to him.
The old man carrying the load asked.
“Two…two points…” The old man stretched out his finger and tremblingly made a two.
Lin Bingchun glanced at the candy; it was quite substantial, and two cents wasn't expensive, so she simply took out her money and bought it.
The short-haired girl next to them spent a long time picking and choosing but couldn't find one she liked, so she simply picked one that was exactly the same as Lin Bingchun's. The two of them paid and then planned to turn around and go back to the police station.
Xu Xinchen stood behind the two people with a faint smile on her face. When she saw them turn around, she waved to them.
Lin Bingchun and the short-haired girl were taken aback, and simultaneously put down the candy in their hands, their faces showing awkward smiles: "Min Shi... why did you come out?"
Xu Xinchen raised an eyebrow slightly, her tone full of teasing: "Come out and see if you two have quietly slipped away."
Having worked with Xu Xinchen for so long, how could Lin Bingchun not understand the meaning behind Xu Xinchen's words? Her heart skipped a beat, and her first reaction was to playfully tease Xu Xinchen.
However, when his eyes fell on Chen Ningsheng standing next to Xu Xinchen and met Chen Ningsheng's face, that thought immediately vanished.
Although Chen Ningsheng is smiling now, she still remembers how intimidating he was when he first entered the police station.
