Qin Shuâs heart was like an ant on a hot pan, but she had no choice but to calm down and analyse the clues left behind by the kidnappers.
Fu Tingyu looked at the screen in front of him and saw a white figure entering Bright Garden quickly. The speed was so fast that he did not alarm the guards in Bright Garden.
After a while, the man in the white windbreaker was holding something in his arms. It was obvious that he was his son, Xiao Jiu, and he left quickly.
He did not alarm anyone during the whole process of stealing the baby.
The man in the white windbreaker had a mask on his face. Because he was too fast, Fu could not see the material clearly, but the colour was like white jade.
Fu Tingyu looked at it for a while. His slender fingers reached out and held the girlâs hand. Only then did he realise that the girlâs hand was cold. This was a reaction that came from extreme fear.
At the same time, he held the mouse and watched the video again. When he was halfway through, he clicked pause. The scene stopped at the moment when the white figure jumped over the wall.
Qin Shuâs gaze was fixed on the screen. Her hand was covered by the manâs large hand. She felt the warmth in the manâs palm. Her nervous heart calmed down.
Fu Tingyu stared at the scene and played it over and over again. Finally, he concluded. âThis figure looks familiar. It seems to beâ¦â
It was because he looked familiar that he kept looking over and over again, trying to confirm.
Qin Shu looked at it for a long time, but she couldnât see who he looked like. She asked, âWho does he look like?â
Fu Tingyu wasnât in a hurry to answer. He couldnât help but look at it again before replying to her, âIt looks like your master.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âMaster?â Qin Shu turned her head to look at the man, she was in disbelief. âMy master, even if he wants to see Xiao Jiu, he can come in through the main door. I would even entertain him with good wine and dishes. He wouldnât do something that a kidnapper would do, right? â More importantly, if he was the one who kidnapped Xiao Jiu, this doesnât seem like his style at all.â
âYes, it doesnât .â Fu Tingyu couldnât imagine that his master would do such a thing. But that figure was very similar to his master.
Qin Shu looked at the screen again, she watched the white figure carrying Xiao Jiu and leaving quickly. Her heart began to clench. âBut I would rather it was the master who kidnapped Xiao Jiu than someone who wanted to take Xiao Jiu away.â
Fu Tingyu pulled the girl into his arms and comforted her in a low voice, âDonât worry, Iâll get Xiao Jiu back.â
âOkay.â Qin Shu nodded. She believed that Xiao Jiu would be found safely.
Suddenly, a ringtone rang in the monitoring room, breaking the momentary silence.
Qin Shu paused for a moment. Hearing the familiar ringtone, she hurriedly took out her phone. She glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was an anonymous call. The name and region were not shown.
She looked up at the man and asked for his opinion.
She felt an inexplicable fear in her heart, but she hoped that it was the kidnappers. As long as they did not harm Xiao Jiu, she was willing to give them anything they wanted.
Fu Tingyu looked at the caller ID on his phone. He guessed that it might be the person who took Xiao Jiu away. He said calmly, âPick it up.â
Qin Shu nodded. After picking up the call, she placed it beside her ear. âHello?â
âXiao Bao.â
A male voice sounded beside her ear. It was clear and cold but extremely pleasant to the ear.
When she heard the nickname, Qin Shu asked in puzzlement, âWho are you?â
âYour master.â The man only said three words.
Qin Shu looked up at the man and said with her lips, âMaster.â.
The voice was quite pleasant to the ear and didnât seem very old.
Fu Tingyu was stunned, and a look of surprise flashed across his eyes.
Qin Shu retracted her gaze and asked carefully, âDid you call me for something?â
âIâll take Xiao Jiu to the mountains to play for a few days.â
Qin Shu was stunned and looked at the man again. This time, she said directly, âIt was the master who took Xiao Jiu away.â
Fu Tingyu was stunned too. He suddenly remembered the scene of him being taken away by Uncle Ye when he was young. He heard from Uncle Ye that he had taken him out to play when he was one year old, but he was too young at that time and couldnât remember.
The man asked, âAre you not willing to ?â
Qin Shuâs mouth twitched. Whether she was willing to or not, didnât he kidnap Xiao Jiu?
âWhy would I? Master likes Xiao Jiu and wanted to bring him up the mountain to play for a few days. However, if you want to bring Xiao Jiu up to the mountain, you can just come straight to Bright Garden and say so. Iâve forgotten what master looks like. You should come to us when you are here. I want to catch up with master too .â
These words were definitely from the bottom of her heart. She wanted to see the Masterâs face.
âYou took Xiao Jiu away without saying a word. I thought Xiao Jiu was kidnapped by someone with ill intentions. Luckily, it was you.â
Towards the end, Qin Shu did not forget to remind him. What she meant was that if he wanted to see Xiao Jiu, he could just walk straight to the front door. His kidnapping action scared Fu Tingyu and her.
The man said, âBright Gardenâs protection needs to be strengthened.â
Qin Shu nodded. âMaster is right. When you came in, none of Bright Gardenâs guards noticed you. Itâs mainly because youâre too amazing.â
The man had seen Qin Shuâs ability to flatter him before this. âIn a few days, Iâll send Xiao Jiu back by myself.â
Before Qin Shu could say anything, the man hung up.
She gripped her phone tightly, her worry was gone. Instead, she was slightly angry. âMaster, why did he do something like kidnapping a child? If he was here, then just come to us. Why didnât he show himself up?â
Fu Tingyu held the girl in his arms. Knowing that her master had taken Xiaojiu away, his worry was gone, so he told her about himself, âWhen I was one year old, Uncle Ye secretly took me out like this too. Now the master called to tell us, during my time Uncle Ye only called them at night.â
At the mention of Uncle Ye, Qin Shu recalled the man in the silver mask who had done the same thing as her master.
Nowadays, all the powerful and mysterious people like to kidnap children secretly?
Seeing their masterâs actions and the scene in front of them, Ye Luo and the staff in the monitoring room retreated tactfully.
Qin Shu recalled what her master had said. âOh yeah, the master mentioned that the protection of Bright Garden needs to be strengthened.â
The man nodded. âYes, it needs to be strengthened.â
Qin Shu said, âIt needs to be strengthened. An expert like the master will still be able to come and go freely under the eyes of the guards.â
The girl spoke the manâs mind directly. For an expert like the master, no matter how well the protection was done, it couldnât stop him.
Bright Gardenâs protection was done extremely well.
When Qin Shu was attending the online class, her master came to see her, but he didnât show up.
There was a window on the right side of the study room in the bedroom. The man stood outside the window and looked for a while, then turned around and went to the next room. It was silent, so Qin Shu did not notice that the man had come.
After Ye Luo went out, he met Ning Meng who was walking towards him. Her eyes were still red and swollen.
âYoung master was taken away by Madam Fuâs master.â
He left after saying that.
Ning Meng was still wiping her tears. When she heard that, she wanted to ask about the specific details, but Ye Luo was three metres away.
âI havenât asked questions yet.. Why are you in such a hurry to leave?â
