âLeng Xue, take your men and search the houses up ahead one by one. Iâll stay here to protect Ding Ding. Report to me immediately if thereâs any situation,â Li Zhenting instructed Leng Xue.
In this kind of environment, Ding Ding had also followed. Of course, his own son was the priority. He needed to protect his son first. As for Coco, he had already brought people to rescue him, which could be considered fulfilling his responsibility.
Leng Xue agreed and immediately headed towards the houses with five young men.
Li Zhijun saw his cousinâs nonchalant and indifferent attitude and couldnât help but roll his eyes. This man, Ding Ding was his son, but wasnât Coco important too?
âWhat about you? Werenât you loudly shouting that you wanted to come and help rescue someone? You were quite loud earlier, why arenât you going now?â Li Zhenting looked at Li Zhijun, who was now huddled in the darkness, his colorful hair ruffled by the wind, with a hint of cold mockery in his eyes as he questioned him.
Li Zhijun shrank his head, glanced into the pitch-black night where he couldnât see anything, and indeed felt a bit scared. He had been afraid of the dark since he was a child.
âCousin, whether I go or not is not the point, but what about you? If you donât go, it wonât be justifiable,â he chuckled.
Itâs your son, so you should go to save him!
However, Li Zhenting smiled indifferently. âFirst, I need to protect my own son. As for someone elseâs son, Iâll do my best.â
Li Zhijun widened his eyes in disbelief. So, Shen Ning hadnât told him the truth yet.
In this pitch-black night, facing dangerous criminals, if he didnât go, he would regret it if something happened later.
Suddenly, Li Zhijun snatched Ding Ding into his arms and said, âCousin, Iâll take care of your son. You go and rescue Coco quickly; otherwise, youâll regret it.â
With that, he swiftly got into the car, locking the door behind him, leaving Li Zhenting fuming outside.
After a moment of hesitation, Li Zhenting finally took determined steps into the darkness.
âThank you, Ding Ding,â Li Zhijun said as he got into the car. Shen Ning reached out and embraced Ding Ding, tears welling up in her eyes.
Today, if it werenât for Ding Ding, that jerk Li Zhenting would never have come to rescue Coco. She was truly grateful to him.
âDonât cry, Mommy. Trust me; Iâll make sure Dad rescues Coco,â Ding Ding said as he handed his mom a tissue to wipe away her tears.
Shen Ning held Ding Ding tightly in her arms.
Meanwhile, when Coco opened his eyes, he had a splitting headache. It was pitch dark around him, and he felt pain all over, as if he had been badly beaten.
He struggled to sit up and realized that his hands and feet were tightly bound, rendering him immobile.
âMommy, Mommy,â he whimpered.
It was so cold, and he felt like he was lying on a freezing floor. There was a strong foul odor in the air.
Where was he?
The smart little boy soon realized that he was in danger.
During the day, Coco was playing with his toy car in the neighborhood when suddenly, a man reached in and took his toy car. The man started talking to him in a friendly manner, saying they should have a race with their cars.
Coco naively believed him and ran outside. As soon as he stepped out, the villain knocked him unconscious.
He had been careless, not listening to his mommyâs advice, and talking to strangers had led him right into this trap.
Now, he was sure his mommy must be very worried. And Xiao Xiao must be frightened too!
Coco called out a few times and then calmed down. He began to crawl while propped up on his hands, trying to rub the ropes that bound his hands against the wall.
Before long, he heard heavy footsteps approaching from outside.
Oh no, the bad guys were coming.
He closed his eyes and collapsed to the ground.
Soon enough, the sound of footsteps reached the door, and with a rush of cold air, two men entered the room..
