CHAPTER 220
"She is gone. She is gone! Leave my daughter alone." Ding Jiaying yelled at her husband.
"What?" Did he just hear well? Was what she said true? His eyes shone with surprise as he stared at the mother and daughter duo standing before him.
"Yes. It is as I said. She is gone, Li Chun."
"You jest," Li Chun spat back sharply and turned around. He wasted no time in racing upstairs in search of his adopted daughter. "Li Jing!" He called her name louder this time but there was no response.
"Li Jing! Li Jing! Come out, father is back, Li Jing."
Still the same thing. No reply.
His heart had begun to race wildly in his chest. No, this was not happening. "Li Jing!" He called out for the last time when he got to her room door before turning the knob and pushing it open.
