Chapter 1629: Expected or Available (23)
Jing Li didn't expect him to say such words. After a moment of stunned sneer, he laughed, "Okay, even if you choose a few thousand per person, I should invite you... But I guess, you won't be so cruel."
Huo Qiran lowered his head and smiled, then said, "Let's go, I know there is a sushi restaurant that is quite delicious."
The two of them got back in the car, and Jingli was silent for a moment and slowly spoke: "Actually, after my brother had an accident, the other party paid a sum of money, and the money should have been placed on Xixi's mother's account. But when she left, she left most of the money to me and Xixi."
Huo Qiran heard this and responded softly.
"If I don't come out to work, I won't be able to survive, but I know that once Xixi reaches the age of school, that money will not be enough to support the two of us. After all, raising a child is really too expensive. So I can only try to save more for her and save more... But now that she has returned to her mother, she can have a good life, so I don't have to worry about her anymore."
When Huo Qiran heard this, he just smiled slightly, and still responded softly.
Because he knew that Jing Li didn't tell him these words.
Whether he responds or not does not matter.
After Jing Li finished speaking, he became quiet and turned to look out the window, silently.
"Do you want to listen to some music?" Huo Qiran asked.
"Okay." Jing Li responded, with a slight sense of tide in his voice.
As if he hadn't heard it, Huo Qiran was about to reach out and lit the music, but suddenly he heard Jing Li's cell phone ringing.
He immediately retracted his hand and turned to look at Jingli.
Jing Li took out the phone, took a look and answered it quickly. Who knew that when he heard the first sentence over there, his face had changed.
Because Gu Wan said to her in a crying voice on the other end of the phone-
"Jingli, Xixi is gone!"
In an instant, all the blood on Jingli's face faded away, his face turned pale, and even his breathing became difficult.
But she could only force herself to calm down and gritted her teeth and said, "How come Xixi disappeared?"
When Huo Qiran next to him heard this, his face also changed.
"As soon as she woke up, she wanted to look for you and kept crying... I didn't expect him to rest at home. He was woken up by Xixi and got angry. Xixi might have been scared and ran out secretly... I was looking for her, I was looking for..."
Gu Wan cried with the sound of wind and gasping, and it seemed that he had been looking for Xixi for a long time.
And Jing Li felt more and more cold hands and feet.
Seeing that her expression was frozen, Huo Qiran couldn't help but ask her: "Did she wear the watch I gave to Xixi before?"
Jing Li suddenly came to his senses and nodded quickly, "Yes! She likes that watch very much and has been wearing it on her hands!"
While speaking, she had already hung up Gu Wan's phone and called Xixi's watch.
However, the phone dialed in, but it was prompted that it could not be connected.
Jing Li was so nervous that his hands were trembling. He tweeted again, but he still couldn't connect.
"Can it be out of power?" Huo Qiran asked.
"It shouldn't be." Jing Li was so anxious that she was about to cry. "I recharge her every day..."
"Don't worry," said Huo Qiran, "If the watch has electricity, it should be able to locate the signal. I'll make a call."
Huo Qiran started making a phone call while driving to the address provided by Gu Wan.
Even though Jing Li was anxious, he was always silent and watched him call out one by one.
She had no idea about such things before. Now she heard him call several times in a row and realized that the location signal was not a trivial matter. She didn't even dare to speak out. When she heard him say to the person on the other end of the phone, tears came uncontrollably.
But before the tears fell, she quickly wiped her eyes and turned to look at Huo Qiran, who had just hung up the phone.
"Don't worry." Huo Qiran said to her, "There should be news soon."
Sure enough, not long after, Huo Qiran's cell phone rang. He quickly answered the phone. After saying a few words, he turned around and nodded at Jing Li.
Before Jing Li could breathe down, her phone suddenly rang.
She glanced at the caller ID and almost screamed out loud. She answered the phone directly and shouted in dismay: "Xixi?"
A female voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hello, are you the parent of this child? She is now at our Ling'an Road Police Station. How long will it take for you to come and pick her up?"
"I'll come soon, I'll come soon..." Jing Li finally couldn't help but cry, and shed tears while crying, "Thank you, thank you..."
...
Ten minutes later, the two arrived at Ling'an Road.
When Jing Li rushed into the office, Xixi was sitting on an office chair with tears in her eyes. While listening to the cartoons played for her in front of her, she turned her head and looked at the door.
The moment she saw Jing Li, she seemed to be stunned at first, then she held her mouth shut and her tears fell down.
Jing Li quickly stepped forward and immediately carried her into his arms.
Finally thrown into my aunt's arms, Xixi still cried silently, with tears falling down.
"It's okay." Jingli patted her back gently, "Auntie is here, don't be afraid."
The female police officer who had been with Xixi next to him saw this and said, "She was sent here twenty minutes ago, saying that she was a lost child. Her watch phone was turned off and placed in the mezzanine of her small backpack. I didn't even notice it. Fortunately, someone called me just now and said that the signal that she had located her watch was here, so we can contact you..."
Jingli still thanked repeatedly.
"Parents, be careful," said the policewoman, "A child of such a young child is lucky today and is sent here to meet a kind-hearted person. What if he meets a human trafficker? Then you really regret it for the rest of your life!"
Jing Li listened to everything and did not refute a single word.
When Gu Wan arrived hurriedly, Jing Li was completing the relevant procedures. Gu Wan stood outside the office door, looked at Xixi from a distance, turned his head and covered his face and got into his car.
Huo Qiran took something from his car, looked at her, and then walked into the office again.
Xixi was thrusting and lying on Jingli's shoulder. Huo Qiran walked forward and put the things in his hand in front of Xixi.
Xixi was a little lost in his mind, but after seeing what was in Huo Qiran's hand, he suddenly opened his eyes wide.
Huo Qiran smiled and handed her the doll in her hand. She reached out to take it, took it in her hand and looked at it again and again. After a "huh", she turned to look at Jingli, then looked at the doll in her hand, and finally came to the conclusion: "It's my aunt!"
Jing Li had just signed the letter, but when he turned around, he saw the doll in Xixi's hand, and suddenly he was stunned.
