C9 Worry

Xiaoxing reached out her hand and gently pushed open the door of the house. She quickly ran in. She thought in her heart, Luckily it was not locked! Otherwise, she would have been drenched to death by the rain today.

After turning around and closing the wooden door, Xiaoxing glanced around the small wooden house under the dim light. She found that it was a very small wooden house. The inside of the house was also very simple. There was only a small bed. A simple table and a chair. When Xiaoxing saw that there was a neatly folded blanket on the small bed, she revealed a surprised smile. The rain just now was wet and cold. Now, she was just a chicken that had fallen into soup. Furthermore, it was a chicken soup covered in mud.

Xiaoxing used the last bit of light in the sky to take off her mud-soaked dress. She quickly ran to the table and looked around to see if there were any candles or other lighting. The sky was about to turn dark and she would be very afraid if there were no lights! She actually found a few half-burnt candles and a box of matches. After lighting a candle, because of this little candle light, the little room seemed to be much warmer.

Xiaoxing quickly climbed onto the bed, pulled the blanket over, and curled up in the blanket. Although her clothes were also wet from the rain, she was now alone in the cabin. For safety reasons, she could not take off all her clothes! If there was a pervert or something, it would be a huge loss. Thinking of this, Xiaoxing suddenly remembered that she had not plugged the door yet. She quickly ran to the door and found a lock under the weak candlelight to firmly plug the door. Only then did she calm her heart.

The wind and rain outside were getting heavier and heavier. She heard the wind and rain outside. Through the small window, he saw the shadow of the tree swaying left and right. Xiaoxing was extremely afraid! She wrapped herself tightly in the blanket and looked out the window in horror. Her heart was filled with despair! It was time to eat dinner. She wondered what would happen if her nominal mother-in-law and servants could not find her. She did not tell anyone that she had entered the coconut grove. Actually, even she herself had walked in muddle-headedly. The wind and rain outside were so heavy that no one would come to pick her up! It seemed that she would wait for the rain to stop tomorrow before going out. It seemed like he was going to starve tonight! Xiaoxing thought as she touched her stomach that was already starting to growl.

Due to the heavy rain in the evening, Qin Jun rarely went home to eat dinner tonight.

"Young Master! Young Mistress is not back yet." Once Qin Jun entered the spacious living room, Mrs Zhang ran up to him and said anxiously.

"Did she say where she went?" Qin Jun turned around and looked at the wind and rain outside.

"The gatekeeper said he didn't see the young lady go out! But even after searching all four floors, he still didn't see a single person! " Mrs Zhang frowned and said.

"He did not go out!" Qin Jun lowered his head and whispered to himself.

"Jun, don't let anything happen. The rain outside is so heavy. This child, where did she go? Why didn't she say anything?" Yao Fen was also somewhat anxious.

Qin Jun did not speak, but walked towards the monitoring room with large strides. He walked quickly into the room filled with surveillance television. He pressed the button, and dozens of surveillance television were turned on. Qin Jun's sharp eyes quickly scanned the surveillance footage one by one, capturing the person he was looking for like an eagle. Very quickly, he found his target.

Under the faint candlelight on the table, Xiaoxing's entire body was curled up in a brownish-yellow blanket. A pair of frightened big eyes stared blankly at the window...

It was still that pair of frightened eyes. Qin Jun had seen this expression more than once. For some reason, her frightened eyes could always move the softest heartstrings in his heart. It made him unable to resist protecting her!

"So Xiaoxing is hiding in a cabin in the coconut grove!" Yao Fen finally let out a long sigh of relief.

"Mommy, I will go and pick her up!" After Qin Jun finished speaking, he quickly walked out.

"Jun, the wind and rain outside are very strong. Ask Jie to go with you!" Yao Fen shouted from behind.

"No need!" A voice came from outside the door.

Qin Jun entered the coconut grove wearing a raincoat and holding a flashlight in his hand. When he was young, he often came here to play. He was also a frequent customer of that small wooden house. However, after he grew up, the number of times he came here was very small. However, this place carried many of his childhood memories.

Qin Jun was not familiar with the road here. Not long after he walked, he arrived at the door of the wooden house.

Qin Jun pushed the door open and found that it was locked!

Xiaoxing suddenly saw a black shadow approaching the wooden house. Her back immediately broke out in cold sweat and her hands unconsciously tightened the blanket on her body! Who would come here? Xiaoxing's hands actually began to tremble lightly.

"Pak pak... Pah... " A powerful knocking sound came from outside.

"Who is it?" Xiaoxing asked in a loud voice.

The storm outside was very strong, and it completely drowned Xiaoxing's voice. Qin Jun, who had knocked on the door for a long time, was starting to get impatient. Taking a step back, he stretched out his leg and kicked the door open. Xiaoxing saw a tall man in a raincoat and a cap break in. She was so scared that she covered herself with a blanket and stood in the innermost part of the bed.

"What... What do you want to do?" Xiaoxing asked with a trembling voice.

That person was not in a hurry to answer. Instead, he turned around and locked the door again. Then, he unhurriedly took off his hat. The man revealed his thick black hair and a cold face, which was still covered in water droplets. The moment Xiaoxing saw this face, she finally relaxed her guard. A surprised smile also appeared on her face. She really did not think that he would come and find her! Usually, he wouldn't be able to return home at this time!
