It is highly possible based on the inference that they couldn’t capture the daughter of the enemy they’re seeking, making it impossible to threaten the opposing side. As a result, they can only come back to demand some ransom for kidnapping Nala. If Mingli is with that girl, then he definitely isn’t in the hands of this group.

Nala’s assistant is worried that Xiao Yebai doesn’t care if Nala lives or dies.

Seeing the assistant crying with a face full of tears, Zang Xiaolian couldn’t help but say, "Don’t cry. It’s not possible that we will ignore the situation and not rescue her. Also, only by rescuing her can we find out what’s going on."

Xiao Yebai walked to the side to discuss details with Lao Liu.

During the discussion with Wei Changqing, he looked towards Gu Nuan and reminded him, "Before you leave, it’s best to explain clearly to your wife."

Xiao Yebai turned back to look, only to find his wife’s shadow nowhere.

Gu Nuan went back to the bedroom to rummage around, unaware of exactly what she was looking for. Once she calmed down and thought about it, she suddenly realized she was avoiding, escaping the dangerous scenario of negotiating with evil people that might happen again.

Reflecting on the past few days when the family of four rode horses on the grassland, now suddenly it shifts back to a cruel scene.

She patted her face, intending to pull herself together, when suddenly two arms stretched out from behind her to embrace her.

He wrapped his arms around her, taking her hand to write words in her palm. This gesture made her palm itch. She turned around to look him in the eyes, "Just say what you want to say."

"Do you remember what I said to you last time?"

She remembered, it was about trusting his capability. The man in front of her had truly become the master of the house, making decisive decisions.

"So, while I’m gone, you stay at home, don’t think about looking for me or for Mingli. Regardless of what happens, just take care of Lingxin at home. I will definitely bring Mingli back safely."

"I know." She hadn’t finished these three words, when his kiss suddenly landed, wantonly capturing her soft lips.

In the living room, seeing the couple entering the room, the group quietly waited in the living room. Zang Xiaolian saw Lingxin’s lonely little face, and to encourage the little one, said, "Don’t worry, when you grow up, you’ll have it too."

Ou Yanan and Wei Changqing were quite astonished at this. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Lingxin shrugged his little shoulders and, imitating Er Monkey’s tone, said, "Uncle, don’t worry, I think I will have it in the future too."

Zang Xiaolian vigorously rubbed his little head twice. Many people preferred the outgoing Er Monkey, but to Zang Xiaolian, actually, Da Monkey wasn’t lacking a sense of humor, it’s just that Er Monkey overshadowed him usually.

Later, Dabai and Wei Changqing went out.

Gu Nuan stood shoulder to shoulder with her elder son, watching Dabai disappear into the night in the car.

"Dad will come back," Lingxin said, biting his small lip.

"Mm." Gu Nuan hugged her son’s little shoulders and softly said, "With your father and Mingli gone, we still have plenty of things to do."

"Really?" Lingxin’s little eyes lit up.

Gu Nuan nodded at her elder son.

The husband went to find the son, but regarding the painting, this matter couldn’t be cut off just like that. Vaguely, she always felt there was some connection between the two.

New York’s nights slowly grew colder as it drifted into autumn.

The two little ones sat in the backseat, leaning against each other for warmth.

"If I had known, I would have worn more clothes going out, but the sunlight was so nice in the afternoon," Er Monkey Mingli muttered like a little old man.
