This enormous reaction forced Xiao Yifei to pay attention, and a confident smile also appeared on Xiao Yifei's face. Because of this woman's response, Xiao Yifei could basically confirm that this woman was Ci Xin.
"What, beauty, are you shocked by what I said?" Lin Mu laughed and said. Upon hearing this, Xiao Yifei wasn't sure what he was thinking and slowly sat back down. However, the look in the woman's eyes towards Xiao Yifei had completely changed, and now she was very interested in the man in front of her.
"Who exactly are you?" The woman seemed to have a furrowed brow, implying that Xiao Yifei had hit the nail on the head. Upon hearing this, Xiao Yifei also turned somewhat serious and said, "Who I am is not important; what's important is who you are?" As he spoke, Xiao Yifei frowned as well and locked eyes with the woman.
Both sides could see a hint of solemnity in each other's eyes, now both were questioning in their minds, who is the other person? "What else do you know?" The woman realized that Xiao Yifei was no ordinary person, so she straightforwardly asked. Moreover, she straightened her previously lazy sitting posture.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yifei coughed. At this moment, he knew that the woman in front of him had guessed something. Since she asked this way, she must have some measure in her heart. Therefore, Xiao Yifei dared not speak lightly; he would only speak out all he knew when the woman said it herself.
"I know more than just this, but who is your excellency anyway? I can't just tell what I know to a stranger, can I?" Xiao Yifei looked at the woman and said reasonably. Hearing this, the woman couldn't help but secretly admire this seemingly young man's depth.
Now, Xiao Yifei seemed entirely intent on getting her to talk. The woman was very clear about this, so she wasn't in a hurry either, waiting for Xiao Yifei to speak up himself. For a moment, both were waiting for the other to start talking, and the unstated atmosphere became awkward. It was unknown how long had passed, but someone seemed unable to hold their patience.
It appeared that the woman was very irritable, yet in this situation, she seemed calm and unhurried, thought Xiao Yifei. He then sighed deeply and slowly said, "I wonder if you remember anyone with the surname Hua?" Xiao Yifei's tone was calm, but what the woman heard caused a storm in her heart.
After a while, the woman nodded, yet her face revealed nothing about what she was thinking, but whatever it was, it was definitely related to what Xiao Yifei had said. Seeing the woman nod, Xiao Yifei helplessly shook his head and continued, "Since you know the surname Hua, you must also know the Hua Family, right?"
The woman nodded again. Now it seemed the only action she could make was nodding. In response, Xiao Yifei finally revealed the last secret, "Knowing the Hua Family also means you must know you have a daughter, right? Of course, her surname is also Hua." Xiao Yifei said this while looking at the woman's face.
The woman wore an uncertain expression on her face, "That's right, I do have a daughter." She nodded again; from the beginning, the woman kept nodding, and this instance was no different; her words also confirmed Xiao Yifei's assertion. Finally, hearing the woman say this, Xiao Yifei's suspicions were gradually confirmed.
The woman asking for money was indeed the mother of Qianxi, Ci Xin! "Ci Xin! I originally wanted you to say it yourself, but now it seems I have to spell it out." Xiao Yifei sighed deeply and asked, "Why won't you go back?"
Upon hearing this series of statements from Xiao Yifei, the woman ultimately acknowledged it. Indeed, she had never forgotten her identity; she was the Hua Family's daughter-in-law and a mother to a daughter. She was Ci Xin!
At the entrance of the Hua Mansion, an ordinary sedan stopped. A crisp and neat figure descended from it, none other than Hua Xiangrong. At this moment, she had just come over from the scene, previously having informed Xiao Yifei about the person's whereabouts he was looking for. But Xiao Yifei hadn't made any moves, not to mention the person he was searching for had been kidnapped.
Therefore, thinking of this, Hua Xiangrong couldn't help wanting to find Xiao Yifei to get clarity. Thus, on this day, she drove to the Hua Mansion and familiarly went to Xiao Yifei's room, only to find it empty of Xiao Yifei's presence. Seeing that Xiao Yifei was not in the room, Hua Xiangrong assumed he was strolling somewhere in the mansion.
So, she searched around but, even turning the place upside down, couldn't catch a glimpse of Xiao Yifei. Just when Hua Xiangrong was getting anxious, Elder Hua appeared before her. Upon seeing Elder Hua, Hua Xiangrong didn't wait for him to speak and asked first, "Grandpa, where did Xiao Yifei go?"
Elder Hua had originally come over to see what the commotion was about, but upon seeing the anxiety on Hua Xiangrong's face, he didn't rush to answer her and instead told Hua Xiangrong to calm down first. "Xiangrong, don't worry, calm yourself first."
Upon hearing this, Hua Xiangrong took a deep breath to stabilize her emotions a bit. Seeing her gradually calm down, Elder Hua felt at ease and asked what was going on. Hearing Elder Hua ask, Hua Xiangrong fully explained that she came to find Xiao Yifei.
Hearing that Hua Xiangrong was looking for Xiao Yifei, Elder Hua sighed helplessly and then told Hua Xiangrong that Xiao Yifei had left early in the morning. Upon hearing that Xiao Yifei had already left, Hua Xiangrong's heart sank.
The day Hua Xiangrong and Xiao Yifei talked about the person he was looking for, although Xiao Yifei wasn't surprised, his face showed urgency. So, after hearing that Xiao Yifei had left so early, Hua Xiangrong couldn't help but think Xiao Yifei had gone alone to rescue the person he was looking for.
With this thought, worry grew in Hua Xiangrong's heart because the woman was not missing but kidnapped. Who knew how many people the kidnappers had? Xiao Yifei, going alone, was likely walking into great danger. Thinking about it, Hua Xiangrong began to get anxious, fearful of what might happen to Xiao Yifei.
Elder Hua watched Hua Xiangrong's changing expressions and felt something might be wrong. He hurriedly inquired, but how could Hua Xiangrong possibly tell Elder Hua about this now? If she did, not only would Elder Hua worry, but he might also personally seek out Xiao Yifei.
The elderly were already of such an age, and Hua Xiangrong didn't want Elder Hua to worry about these matters any longer. So, she just smiled without telling him anything. Instead, she reassured Elder Hua, saying Xiao Yifei probably just had urgent business and might return in a few days.
Upon hearing Hua Xiangrong say this, Elder Hua, although knowing it wasn't so simple, still felt somewhat comforted. Seeing this, Hua Xiangrong comforted him with a few more words before quickly leaving.
Leaving the Hua Mansion, Hua Xiangrong headed straight to the police department. Her only goal was to find Xiao Yifei quickly.
At this moment, Xiao Yifei was still within that skyscraper in Cloud City, across from him sat Qianxi's mother, Ci Xin. Having spent so much effort to find Ci Xin, unexpectedly, they met just like that. To be honest, Xiao Yifei felt both laughing and crying. At the same time, he had many lingering questions.
