Love in the Midst of Mistaken Identities

Chapter 806 - The Child Went Missing

Chapter 806: The Child Went Missing

“Are you my elder?” Xia Ruoxin retorted. Her nonchalant attitude made Song Wan’s heart feel a lot better.

“If I’m here, you don’t have to think about entering my Chu family.” She went directly through the apple in her hand; and at that moment, her voice almost became shrill.

Sorry, Xia Ruoxin did not feel like she was hurt. “I never wanted to be part of the Chu family so you aren’t my elder. Also, may I ask, what did you mean by the words you said? Where’s my daughter?”

Song Wan stood up and walked over and towards the railings by the boat. “If you want to know, then follow me.”

Xia Ruoxin paused before following.

“Say it.” She stood a distance away from Song Wan. She did not have much time to waste on her now; she just wanted to know how her daughter was.

“Where do you think this seawater would flow to?” Song Wan’s gaze followed the ocean as she said words that were random and illogical.

Xia Ruoxin did not come here to listen to her make poems and pour her heart out.

“Xia Ruoxin.” Song Wan opened her mouth.

Xia Ruoxin was listening, but she was starting to get annoyed. The sea breeze blew on her face, and there was a fishy smell in the wind. No matter where the sea went, it would definitely spell danger.

“Actually, I did treat you like my daughter,” Song Wan said slowly.

Xia Ruoxin knew that very well, but they could never be mother and daughter again. Perhaps she herself had no luck with familial relations or that she was destined to be a lone star and could not have many familial ties.

“I just want to know where my daughter is. Where’s Rainy?” Actually, Xia Ruoxin was tired and did not want to fight with Song Wan anymore. She just wanted to live with her daughter and have a normal life; was that really that hard?

“Your daughter?” Song Wan remembered the child’s pretty face and endured it in the end. “Come over, Auntie will tell you.” She smiled, but this smile in Xia Ruoxin’s eyes had no difference from a poisonous snake.

She inched closer and stood in front of Song Wan.

Song Wan placed her hand on Xia Ruoxin’s shoulders, and Xia Ruoxin instinctively dodged it. Song Wan raised her hand again and placed it on the loose strands of hair by her ear.

“Ruoxin, Auntie did you wrong.”

Xia Ruoxin turned her face.

“Rainy... is missing...”

Xia Ruoxin did not react to it at first. “What did you say?”

Missing? What was missing?

“I said, Rainy is missing. Your daughter is lost.” Song Wan breathed deeply and repeated while enunciating each and every word clearly and seriously.

“Madam Song, this joke is not funny.” Xia Ruoxin’s smile was very sarcastic, but for some reason, her fingers were actually trembling.

“I’m not joking.” Song Wan’s expression did not look like she was joking. “I lied to Ah Lui yesterday, and he did not fetch Rainy at all; it was me. In the end, she went missing.”

Xia Ruoxin suddenly grabbed her hair tightly with her fingers before letting go and grabbing it tightly again.

“Madam Song, I really don’t want to joke with you now. Chu Lui brought Rainy overseas, right?”

“Is that so?” Song Wan knew that this was part of her son’s plan because they could not find her. She also hoped that things were that way, but in reality, it was not.

“If you don’t believe it, you can call and ask if Rainy was with him.”

Xia Ruoxin took out her phone, and her fingers were trembling as the wind kept blowing at her lashes from time to time; tears were forming in her eyes.

“Chu Lui, it’s me.”

Her voice was trembling, and so was her person.

“Ruoxin...” Chu Lui’s voice was calm, but Xia Ruoxin could tell that there was a hint of cautiousness in his voice. Cautious? What was he being cautious about? Was there something to be worried or scared about?

“Chu Lui, where’s Rainy?” Xia Ruoxin’s voice was trembling as she asked him.

“Rainy is sleeping.” Chu Lui paused before continuing, “She is exhausted from playing. Just let her sleep.”

“Really?” Xia Ruoxin did not believe it. “Chu Lui, tell me properly. Is she with you or not? Is she?” Her voice echoed, and she almost shouted out loud.

Chu Lui was taken aback and thought that Xia Ruoxin might have found out the truth so he hurriedly explained. “Ruoxin, don’t be worried. I didn’t lie to you on purpose. My mom took Rainy out, and I was afraid that you would be worried so...”

“Is she really not with you? So you lied to me,” Xia Ruoxin asked again in disbelief.

“Yes.” Chu Lui let out a deep sigh on the other end and raised his hand to touch his collar. Suddenly, he felt as if someone was strangling him, and he could not breathe.

Just what Xia Ruoxin was about to say something more, there was a pain in her hand; and Song Wan snatched her phone away. Woosh. The phone made a trajectory in midair and landed in the ocean.

Chu Lui heard the busy tone on the other end and thought that Xia Ruoxin had hung up on him in anger. He sat on the sofa and knocked on his forehead, feeling as if it was much bigger than a watermelon.

The sea breeze continued blowing, and it made their hair fly up just like a demon.

“Where’s my daughter?” Xia Ruoxin suddenly grabbed Song Wan’s shoulders. “Say, where’s my daughter?”

“I don’t know, missing.” Song Wan shook her head and was in a frenzy to take Xia Ruoxin’s hand off, but Xia Ruoxin clutched her tightly.

“Where’s my daughter?” Xia Ruoxin was crazy. At this time, she could not see anything or hear anything; she just wanted Song Wan to tell her where her daughter went. Where exactly was her daughter?

At this time, a pair of hands emerged from nowhere and gave her a mighty push. Her body instinctively stepped backward, and when she recovered her senses, she saw Song Wan’s face getting further and further away from her. There was also someone behind her, but she could not see her properly. She only knew that it was a person, a woman with long hair. She even dyed her hair wine red, and there was a distinct perfume smell on her that made her retch.

She opened her eyes wide and wanted to remember Song Wan’s face even at her death.

Boom! The water splashed up, and the salty seawater started pressing on her body. She opened her mouth and wanted to search for some air instinctively. However, at that instant, all the seawater was swallowed into her mouth; and the seawater kept entering from her nose, her mouth, and into her stomach and lungs. She wanted to breathe; she wanted to grab onto something.
