Chapter 55: I beg you, can you spare her life?

To confirm his judgment, Si Si deliberately kicked the door several times with her foot.

The door had just been kicked open, but she heard Wang Yanbo’s cursing voice: “What? Do you think you can escape?”

“I’m telling you, just stay there obediently. I will stay here, and guard outside. If you don’t want to suffer any physical pain, don’t try to make any moves.”

Si Si was frightened by the sudden curse but did not make any response.

She knew the brothers Wang Yanbo and Wang Yanheng relatively well. She shouldn’t give them a chance to speak. After all, all she would hear were dirty words.

Si Si silently returned to the wicker chair and looked out the window, thinking about ways to escape.

Qi Mohan continued to let the two kids stay in Si Si’s room to wait for news.

During this period, Qi Mohan used a voice recorder to communicate with Tang Xu several times, but the result was the same, there was no progress at all.

Moreover, Tang Xu also found some contact information for Si Si through some channels. The result of the inquiry was that Si Si had not contacted them for a long time.

He also knew that Si Si had an uncle and an aunt. Tang Xu also heard their home addresses and was about to visit them to inquire.

Now, Qi Mohan also puts his last hope on Tang Xu. He hoped Tang Xu wouldn’t stop worrying and visit her relatives’ home.

While Qi Mohan was waiting for news about Tang Xu, the messenger from the capital also arrived at Prince Rong’s Mansion.

No doubt, the content of the imperial edict was the same as what Prince Heng and Prince Jin said.

The current emperor asked them, the feudal lords, to collect 10,000 dans of grain and send it to the capital within one month.

Qi Mohan was not in a good mood because he was worried about Si Si. Now that he received such an imperial edict, he was filled with indignation.

If he hadn’t been calm, he would have had to scold the Dog Emperor in front of the messenger to relieve his hatred.

Qi Mohan suppressed his anger sent the messenger away in the rain, and then returned to the two rooms.

Imperial Concubine Yun knew her son best. He learned how to behave calmly in the palace. In all these years, he had never shown any restlessness in front of anyone.

However, since he learned the news of Si Si’s disappearance, he seemed to have lost his soul. Even his anger could not be restrained as before, it was written on his face.

Seeing her son like this, she would be lying if she didn’t feel any pain, but she still needed to remind him.

“Mohan, I believe that Miss Si Si has good fortune. Maybe the children will come back soon with good news.”

“On the contrary, you are more worrying. Don’t think too much about this. What we can do now is to pray that Miss Sisi is safe.”

“Don’t forget, Qiushui City is your fiefdom, and so many people are still counting on you to survive. If you get sick because of worrying about Si Si, let alone the people of Qiushui City, I, your mother, will have no hope. ”

“Mother, please don’t worry. I know what to do.” Qi Mohan just said casually to Imperial Concubine Yun, and then sat there and continued to be in a daze.

Imperial Concubine Yun had done all she could to persuade her. She can do anything to change Qi Mohan’s mind, so she can only sigh and continue to wait for news about Si Si with him.

Qi Mohan hadn’t slept all day and all night, but he was still not sleepy at all. He just wanted to sit and think about the appointment with Prince Heng and Prince Jin to go to Suolan Lake later, but at this moment, his brain seemed to be disturbed. His control was average, as long as he thought about it, what appeared in his mind was Si Si……

In desperation, Qi Mohan simply stopped thinking about it. He felt that he could get the news over there through Tang Xu today.

Tonight, Tang Xu can report to the Yamen to look for the person. If the Yamen still hasn’t found Si Si’s whereabouts within a day, then based on his experience, she must be in a bad situation.

Faced with such a thing, Qi Mohan thought she wouldn’t have a chance to survive. A girl with no strength would have little chance of survival once she falls into the hands of gangsters.

Thinking of the possibilities that Si Si would face, Qi Mohan’s chest ached. As if there were tens of thousands of fine needles stabbing his heart.

Every scene and every ending made him feel unbearable pain and despair.

He couldn’t imagine what kind of difficulties and dangers Si Si would encounter at this moment.

All kinds of bad guesses kept flashing through his mind, torturing him so much that he could hardly breathe.

Qi Mohan clenched his fists tightly, digging his nails into his palms, trying to use the pain in his body to dissipate the pain in his heart, but the pinching feeling still followed him and couldn’t go away.

He closed his eyes and tried hard to make those bad images disappear from his mind, but it didn’t help at all!

An unprecedented feeling of powerlessness crept up on his head, and he hated that he was incapable of going to Si Si’s world to protect her from any harm.

Qi Mohan looked outside the window where two birds had flown away, then silently said: “I am willing to pay any price, just for Si Si to return safely.”

In this endless worry and pain, Qi Mohan prayed silently, hoping that God would favor Si Si……

*

On Tang Xu’s side, he arrived at Si Si’s uncle’s house.

The person who received him was Si Si’s aunt.

When Si Chaojing heard that Tang Xu had come to hear the news about Si Si, her face suddenly turned ugly. She just replied that she had never seen Si Si since her father’s funeral. After saying that, she closed the door.

Tang Xu knew there was something wrong with Si Si’s aunt, so he was not discouraged. He planned to come here again.

*

In the living room of Si Chaojing’s house.

Wang Jun sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, while Si Chaojing stood beside him like a servant, listening to his instructions.

“Let me tell you, I am doing this entirely for the good of this family. If you dare to help that dead girl escape, don’t blame me for killing you first.”

Si Chaojing twisted her hands together and begged: “Husband, I beg you, according to your plan, you only need to lock up that girl for a few years, and then go to the police station to handle missing persons. At that time, it’s natural to inherit an outstanding legacy.”

“Although I don’t see Si Si much in my life, she is Chaoqun’s only bloodline, after all. Can you please spare her life?”

As she spoke, Si Chaojing knelt directly to Wang Jun.

In the past, it was okay to ask her to go to Si Chaoqun to get money. After all, she was also a money-loving and lazy person. There was nothing easier than going to her brother to get money.

But after all, Si Si was her blood-related niece, and she couldn’t kill her niece for money.

Besides, not everyone can spend this kind of money on their life. In today’s society, the detection ability has reached the top level. As long as there are any clues, the case will be successfully solved.

At that time, their whole family will have to go to jail.
