Just as Qin Yu was about to fall asleep leaning against the wall, Shi Xiao suddenly screamed, giving Qin Yu the fright of her life. She opened her eyes to see two men in black dragging Shi Xiao out.

“Are you guys going to send my sister home?” Qin Yu got to her feet and asked.

She was ignored.

Qin Yu panicked because she had no clue at all. She could not figure out who was trying to kidnap her.

She only hoped the Four Little Ones and Ning Chen would come and find her as soon as possible.

However, Qin Yu did not like relying on others.

She was used to doing things on her own there was no person she’d trust more than herself.

But there was nothing she could do now!

A half an hour later, the door opened again.

Qin Yu was stunned when she saw Shi Xiao being pushed in.

It was obvious that Shi Xiao had been beaten up. Slap marks were visible on her cheeks.

The exquisite makeup on her face was smudged from all the crying.

However, her eyes seemed different. As an experienced professional pretending to be a fool, Qin Yu’s ability to read people’s expressions was top-notch.

“Sister? Did they hit you?” Qin Yu asked carefully.

Shi Xiao’s tears fell. “Xiao Yu, I’m so scared.”

As she spoke, she slowly crept to Qin Yu’s side.

Qin Yu comforted her. “Sister, don’t be afraid. I’ll protect you.”

Shi Xiao gritted her teeth. “How are you going to protect me?”

Qin Yu tilted her head and thought for a moment. “If they enter again, I’ll go in your place.”

Shi Xiao did not speak.

Qin Yu turned her head to look at her. “Sister, do they want money?”

Shi Xiao shook her head gently.

Qin Yu asked, “Then why did they kidnap us? Are they going to kill us?”

Shi Xiao shuddered.

Qin Yu frowned. What was that reaction?

Suddenly, Shi Xiao said, “Xiao Yu, do you still remember your parents?”

Qin Yu was surprised and said without batting an eyelid, “I remember. Dad even called me yesterday asking when I’d return to see him!” Her tone sounded a little proud too.

“That’s my dad!” Shi Xiao said snappily.

“And mine too,” Qin Yu said softly.

“Xiao Yu, do you remember your family before you came to us? You had a beautiful mother and a handsome father?” Shi Xiao said patiently.

Qin Yu looked at her blankly and shook her head after a while. “I don’t remember.”

She smiled and said to Shi Xiao, “Sister, have you forgotten I fell down the stairs and hurt my head? How can I still remember those things?”

Shi Xiao was speechless. Oh, how much she wanted to strangle Qin Yu right then and there!

She gritted her teeth. “Xiao Yu, think about it carefully. Do you remember a box? Your parents must’ve placed the box and you at a place for others to seek?”

Qin Yu shook her head. “Like hide-and-seek?”

Shi Xiao stomped her feet in anger.

“Close your eyes and imagine yourself when you were a few years old. Your mother hid you and a box somewhere else, while your father came looking for you. Once he finds it, he’d treat you to good foof. Think about it, was there such a thing?” Shi Xiao thought of an idea.

Qin Yu listened to Shi Xiao and closed her eyes. She said, “Sister, I can’t see it.”

“Imagine it!” Shi Xiao lowered her voice in exasperation and said as gently as she could.

Qin Yu nodded. “Okay, let me see…”

“My mom hid me in the wardrobe. Yes, there were many clothes in the wardrobe. She also gave me a box.”

“What does that box look like?” Shi Xiao asked.

Qin Yu closed her eyes and tilted her head. “Yes, it’s a white box with a coiled dragon on it. The eyes of the dragon are made from gemstones. It can move and it’s really beautiful.”

The doors opened silently. Qin Yu did not open her eyes, but she knew that somebody entered.

Shi Xiao asked nervously, “Xiao Yu, where is that box?”

Qin Yu shook her head.

Shi Xiao tried a different approach. “My dad found you, didn’t he?”

Qin Yu nodded. “Yes, he’s also my daddy.”

Shi Xiao could not be bothered to argue with her. “And then?”

“He carried me out,” Qin Yu answered. She felt someone standing beside her.

“Then, what about the box with the dragon? Where did you put it?” Shi Xiao asked carefully.

Qin Yu tilted her head and closed her eyes again. She seemed to be straining her mind just to recall the lost memory. She could feel Shi Xiao’s suffocating pressure and the tension of the person beside her.

“Daddy carried me with one hand and the box with the other and we came out.” Qin Yu finally remembered and opened her eyes happily.

Only to be shocked by the man in black standing next to her.

Shi Xiao asked in a trembling voice, “Qin Yu, are you sure that the box was taken away by my dad?”

Qin Yu said in a daze, “Yes, me and the box. Daddy took us away.”

Shi Xiao sat on the ground in dejection..
