Forgot to ask for the ransom? Is that okay?
Wen Dazui's words made Boyi less confused. Maybe some gangster was really short of money and kidnapped Qianqian to extort some money.
But no matter whether it was a kidnapping or not, Boyi had to go this time. He couldn't joke with Qianqian's life.
He knew very well how Qianqian treated him, Xiao Youchen, and Shumei. Although they could not be partners, Qianqian was the most important friend to him and Shumei, no doubt about it.
He figured it out and hurried out the door.
"Bo Yi, wait a minute, are you planning to go?"
"Sister, this matter can be big or small. Whether it's a prank or real, I need to go and take a look."
"Okay, although it's not appropriate for you to go now that your wedding is imminent, this is a matter of life and death. I won't stop you. Please wait a moment."
Wen Dazui helped his grandson put on his pants, walked over to the counter, and took out all the cash in the drawer. He also took out some more bills from his own pocket and handed them all to Boyi.
"I know you're short on cash lately for your wedding. Keep these for emergencies, just in case the other party asks for money! Take them with you, just in case. These kidnappers are extremely vicious, so you've got to be careful. Be patient if you can, because your bride is still waiting for you to marry her."
Wen Dazui grabbed Boyi's hand and gave him instructions like his mother. Boyi nodded in response with emotion.
"By the way, why don't you ask your brother-in-law to accompany you? There'll be more people to look after you."
"No, no, no, that person said I have to go alone. I don't want to go against his wishes and anger him."
"Is that so? Then go quickly and come back soon. I'll go home and help look after you. Remember to tell your sister and brother-in-law when you go back so they don't worry."
"Okay, big sister, without further ado, I'll be leaving first. I'll leave you to take care of the house."
"Okay, okay, go quickly."
After the two of them finished explaining everything, Boyi went home and told his sister about the situation.
At first, his sister refused to let him go, saying that he had no time to get involved in such trivial matters.
After his emotional and logical persuasion, his sister was finally convinced by him.
He rode his bicycle to town alone.
Shumei learned the news from Xiao Shuangning.
Xiao Shuangning happily passed the message to Boyi on behalf of Shumei, but she searched Boyi's house inside and out, up and down, but could not find any trace of Boyi.
Helpless, she turned to Xiao Youchen for help.
"Brother, why haven't you seen Uncle Boyi?"
Xiao Youchen squatted on the washboard at the door, looking into the distance. He was also waiting for Boyi to come back.
Although he didn't understand what the adults meant by kidnapping, he could tell from their conversation and expressions that his father was going to do something dangerous.
Otherwise, his aunt would not have stopped it forcibly and quarreled with his father.
He hid outside the door and heard their conversation. He watched his father leave, feeling very worried and scared.
Xiao Shuangning looked at the somewhat sad Xiao Youchen with her crystal clear eyes.
Little Youchen bit his lip and said, "Dad went to town."
"Isn't Uncle Boyi getting married to Mom tomorrow? Why is he going to town? When will he be back? Mom has something for him."
"I don't know either."
Little Youchen shook his head. He also wanted to know when his father would be back, but he asked the adults several times, and they all told him that it would be very soon.
He was tired of asking questions one after another, and didn't want to ask anymore. He chose to wait in this way, silently looking into the distance, so that if his father came back, he could see him first.
After hearing this, Xiao Shuangning was also very depressed. Since Boyi was not there, she could not complete the task her mother assigned to her successfully. She lowered her head in frustration and wanted to cry out of grievance.
Seeing her like this, Xiao Youchen jumped down from the washboard and grabbed Xiao Shuangning's hand with his little hand, "Ningning, don't be unhappy. Daddy won't lie to me. He said he would be back as soon as possible. He will definitely come back when he is done."
"Um!"
When Xiao Shuangning heard what Xiao Youchen said, she raised her head and nodded vigorously.
She believed that Xiao Youchen would not lie to her, just as Xiao Youchen believed that Boyi would not lie to him. This is a kind of trust, trust in the closest relatives.
Xiao Youchen smiled. In order to make Xiao Shuangning happy, he forced himself to laugh.
He stretched out his little finger to hook Xiao Shuangning's nose and stroked her black hair.
Xiao Shuangning also raised the corners of her mouth and smiled happily.
"Ningning, don't worry. Dad said we will be a family from now on. No matter what happens, your brother will protect you and won't let anyone bully you again."
"Yeah! Pinky promise, no need to go back on your word."
Xiao Shuangning stretched out her little finger, signaling Xiao Youchen to pinky promise with her.
