Stolen Life of the Poor Girl, Top Luxury Family's Group Favor

Chapter 27: The Intense Turmoil of a Small County Town

Chapter 27

"She went back, she left yesterday afternoon after having lunch," Great-aunt slapped her thigh. "What's wrong? Did she disappear? She used to do this often. Did she go up the mountain to pick mushrooms? Don't worry."

Qin Sui took one glance and nodded slightly, saying, "She's lying."

The staff member's "Why don't we look for her on the mountain" got stuck in their throat, effectively blocked.

Huh?

Lying?

"How did Young Master Qin figure that out?" the staff member asked, dumbfounded.

Great-aunt often watched TV dramas, so she could understand Mandarin perfectly.

Hearing this, she became agitated and pointed at Qin Sui, shouting, "Bullshit! You're slandering people here! You..."

Two tall and sturdy bodyguards stepped forward, directly blocking Great-aunt.

Only then did Great-aunt realize that this young man who had arrived was no ordinary person.

She retreated half a step, somewhat fearfully, and said, "If you don't believe me, come in and look for yourselves. It's not like I could hide Li Xiaoya, could I? She often walks the mountain paths alone. Who knows if she was carried off by wolves or eaten by bears..."

Even the staff members found this statement hard to stomach.

The barrage of comments also started cursing:

[Damn, is this what you call an elder?]

[What, hoping Li Xiaoya is dead?]

[What kind of people are these? I'm furious.]

At this point, almost everyone had forgotten about Li Qingqing; all the viewers' emotions were tied to Li Xiaoya alone.

People from such poor areas have one notable characteristic.

You can tell them about how important or rich you are, but they have no concept of it.

But once the village chief or local police station personnel stand before them, they become scared.

As if on cue, the sound of police sirens drew near.

Although the car was far inferior to the Maybach, as soon as the door opened and a few uniformed officers stepped out, Great-aunt's legs went weak, and she immediately became frightened.

It's over, it's over, she truly felt it was all over now.

"Such a small matter, why call the police?" she said with trembling lips.

Little did she know, this was merely the beginning.

With the cooperation of the local police station, they searched Great-aunt's house thoroughly but didn't find any trace of Li Xiaoya.

A staff member asked, "Could it be a misunderstanding? Did Li Xiaoya disappear after she left?"

Qin Sui pointed at Great-aunt and asked, "Her son and daughter live in the county town, right?"

"Yes," the local guide nodded.

"She made tea yesterday, three glass cups in total, still unwashed in the sink. It wasn't loose tea, but the white tea on the wall. She entertained guests, and for her, they were three important guests," Qin Sui said rapidly.

This statement not only caused an explosion of exclamations in the comment section,

but also made others at the scene take a second look at him.

"You'd be great at criminal investigation!"

With Qin Sui's words as a clue, Great-aunt was legally and reasonably taken away for questioning.

"I won't go, I won't, I won't, you're wronging an innocent person..." Great-aunt was drenched in cold sweat, clinging to the car door, crying and wailing, refusing to let go. Where was her smugness from the day before now?

Meanwhile,

Sheng Yuxiao got into a car from the provincial government and also headed towards Li Family Village.

This team was quite impressive.

"Child trafficking cases persist despite repeated prohibitions. It's truly despicable!" The man sitting next to Sheng Yuxiao said sternly, his tone particularly severe.

"Indeed," the person in the front passenger seat also furrowed his brow, "Especially in poor and backward places like ours, children are always being abducted and sold to economically developed areas. Every time we come across those unsolved cases, it's heartbreaking!"

The more Sheng Yuxiao heard, the more uncomfortable he felt, fearing that after a day and a night, Li Xiaoya might have already been sold to who knows where.

This poor place needs investment, it definitely needs investment.

Better roads need to be built, more surveillance cameras installed, local employment rates need to be improved. Only then will crime decrease... freewebnøvel.com

Sheng Yuxiao's mind was suddenly crowded with all sorts of thoughts, bothering him so much that his chest felt like it was filled with flames he couldn't expel.

The convoy gradually entered the county town to which Li Family Village belonged, instantly causing intense commotion in this small county town.

They discussed what had happened, then craned their necks curiously to look at the people sitting in those cars.

"I heard they're here to catch child traffickers."

"That's a good thing!"

Uncle Li, walking on the street, also overheard such conversations.

He didn't take it to heart at all.

Catching child traffickers had nothing to do with him.

He was a bit annoyed.

Because his wife had called to say that Li Xiaoya was sick, running a high fever of 38°C, vomiting severely, and turning pale. She needed to be taken to the hospital.

Recalling Grandpa Li's description of Li Xiaoya, Uncle Li's first reaction was — it's a trick!

That child is very smart and can endure a lot.

Once sent to the children's hospital, she might find a chance to run away...

But if they didn't send her, what if she really died from the fever?

Annoying!

Really annoying!

Uncle Li quickened his pace with a gloomy face. He hadn't gone far when he was stopped by a middle-aged man.

He looked closely and realized it was the man who had approached him the previous night to offer him a cigarette.

"Hello, hello, my name is Dou Dawei."

"Get lost."

Dou Dawei was stunned. Why such a bad temper?

"What relation are you to that little girl?" Dou Dawei persisted, grabbing Uncle Li's arm.

Uncle Li's heart skipped a beat, but he changed his expression and said, "Her uncle."

"Oh, oh, brother, actually I just wanted you to help introduce me to Young Master Qin."

"Young Master Qin?" Who's that? Uncle Li looked puzzled, thinking this person must be mentally ill.

Dou Dawei realized that he didn't even know Young Master Qin!

Then he could only... "Can I see your niece?"

"Are you sick! Why do you want to see her? Are you a child trafficker?" Uncle Li cursed a few times and hurried back home.

Li Xiaoya was indeed ill.

Her lips had lost all color, only slightly opening and closing as she murmured, "Mom... Mom..."

"Has she taken fever medicine?"

"She did, but she threw it all up."

Uncle Li cursed, picked her up, and said, "We have to go to the hospital then."

Li Xiaoya's voice quickly became hoarse.

She struggled to keep her eyes open, her face burning red, but even in this state, it didn't diminish the delicacy and beauty of her features.

She looked even more pitiful when sick.

Uncle Li looked down at her and thought to himself that she was worth the price.

But he didn't know that Dou Dawei was hiding nearby, watching as they got into the car.

"Is the little girl sick? Or injured? Wait, that's not right! Could they be human traffickers?" Dou Dawei's expression changed as he thought, "If that's really the case, and I manage to stop this crime, I could ask Young Master Qin to invest some money with just a snap of his fingers."

So Dou Dawei followed them without hesitation.

Meanwhile, the couple got into the car hurriedly, causing Li Xiaoya to bump her head on the car frame.

The spot quickly swelled, turning purple and blue, making her look even more pitiful.

Her lips were still moving, but this time she was calling for someone different.

She was calling out: "Sheng Yuxiao... Sheng Yuxiao..."

But Uncle Li didn't hear it clearly.

"What's that?" he asked.

Uncle Li didn't pay much attention to it, completely unaware of just how impressive the background of the name Li Xiaoya was uttering truly was.
