221 Chapter 221: lockdown, worry

Machine Translation

Xia Weiyang had prepared herself for the worst. Her heart ached as she thought about the things that could have happened to her daughter. Then, she remembered talking about Xia Ningyan with Shi Jue earlier. Did she kidnap Du Du?

It was possible that Xia Ningyan kidnapped Xia Weiyang's daughter. She felt even more terrible after thinking about what Xia Ningyan would do to Du Du.

Xia Weiyang's face turned pale. With trembling hands, she took out her phone and dialed Shi Jue's number.

"Shi Jue, Du Du is missing. Ask your bodyguards to look for her!" Xia Weiyang's voice carried a sobbing tone as she spoke anxiously.

Shi Jue was shocked after hearing Xia Weiyang's words. "Xia Weiyang, don't worry. Maybe Du Du is just playing somewhere in the restaurant," he said as he tried to comfort Xia Weiyang.

After hanging up, Shi Jue picked up Dian Dian and left the private room.

Dian Dian immediately understood what was happening. He did not struggle as Shi Jue carried him.

On the way to the washroom, Shi Jue called the manager of the restaurant. "Seal off all the passageways of the restaurant and immediately get people to look for my daughter, Du Du. Also, go over the security footage of the restaurant. If you find anyone suspicious, notify me immediately."

Upon reaching the washroom, Shi Jue saw Xia Weiyang pacing anxiously outside.

Seeing Shi Jue, Xia Weiyang felt like she had seen her savior. "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have left Du Du outside alone. I..." Xia Weiyang immediately said.

Shi Jue stretched out his long arm and hugged Xia Weiyang. "It's not your fault. Du Du will be fine. Don't you believe in your husband's ability?"

"But Du Du is so small. I'm worried..."

Despite the worried expression on her face, Xia Weiyang felt a bit relieved after seeing Shi Jue.

She leaned into Shi Jue's embrace and closed her eyes. Suddenly, tears began to roll down her cheeks.

Shi Jue wiped away Xia Weiyang's tears with his hand. His handsome face was gloomy and his entire body was emitting a terrifying aura.

"Don't cry anymore. You have to believe that Du Du will be fine."

Shi Jue felt anxious after seeing Xia Weiyang in tears. He also felt frustrated because the restaurant's employees had not yet updated him.

If anything happened to his daughter, he would punish everyone working at the restaurant.

Dian Dian then grabbed Xia Weiyang's finger. "Mommy, don't cry. We'll find Du Du."

"You're such a good boy, Dian Dian." Xia Weiyang looked at her son and kissed his forehead. However, she still could not stop crying.

Suddenly, they heard footsteps rushing towards them.

A couple of employees of the restaurant hurriedly approached them.

"Young master Shi Jue, we have already sent people to search for your daughter. We will update you about the search as soon as possible," one of the employees said.

Shi Jue's eyes swept across the people in front of him.

"I'll give you five minutes. If you fail to find my daughter, I will shut this restaurant down!" Shi Jue said coldly.
