Chapter 98: Chapter 98 Just Passing By_1

Xia Ningxing blinked her clear eyes and tugged at his sleeve with her round little hand, asking, "Lu? Why aren’t you speaking?"

"I... was just passing by," Lu Tingli came to his senses, his expression calm and showing no trace of lying.

"Is that so? What a coincidence!"

If Xia Ningxing had really been a nine-year-old girl, she might have been fooled by him, but she wasn’t.

However, since he didn’t want to tell the truth, she wasn’t going to pester him with questions endlessly.

After all, aside from his enormous inheritance, she had no interest in anything else about him.

Wow, that seems quite heartless!

To prevent the kidnappers from escaping, Lu Tingli found a rope and tied them up together.

After he had finished doing this, the authorities arrived.

Once they understood the situation, the authorities took the kidnappers away.

Mrs. Xia and five brothers also came with the authorities.

At this moment, seeing an unharmed Xia Ningxing, Mrs. Xia instantly burst into tears, crazily lunging toward her and holding her tightly in her arms, as if embracing a rare treasure:

"Bao’er! Bao’er! Bao’er!"

She shouted hoarsely, her tears scorching Xia Ningxing’s neck, her voice as if strangled by a giant hand, unable to utter anything other than her name.

Heaven knows how anxious and desperate she was when she heard her daughter had gone missing, as if she was in a fiery pit>.

"Mom, I’m all right, don’t cry, stop crying!" Xia Ningxing’s voice was soft, her nose was sour, and her eyes turned red against her will, as she sobbed and soothed her.

The five brothers also rushed over, "Wuu... sister, it’s all our fault for not protecting you!"

Xia Ningxing sniffed and raised her hand to pat their shoulders, "Brothers, it’s not your fault, don’t blame yourselves, this is Xia Jianren’s fault."

"I’m definitely going to kill him!" Mrs. Xia’s eyes were filled with rage, like a wild beast that had lost its young.

Everyone initially thought Mrs. Xia was just speaking out of anger, but when they returned to the station and she saw Xia Jianren, who had already been arrested, her eyes swiftly filled with blood, the veins on her forehead bulging, and she somehow found a pair of scissors and, screaming, charged towards him—

"You beast, I will kill you!"

"You’re not human, you even kidnap your own daughter!"

Her eyes reddened in fury, she lost her reason, her heart and mind consumed by towering hatred.

She wished she could chop him into pieces and throw his remains to the dogs.

No, even that wouldn’t quell her fury.

"Lan... Lanzi... no... don’t..." Xia Jianren had never seen Mrs. Xia so bloodthirsty before; his legs shook uncontrollably, he wanted to run, to dodge, but his feet were rooted to the spot.

The shadow of death loomed over him in an instant, almost suffocating him.

"Mom! Calm down!" Seeing this, everyone was stunned, Xia Ningxing rushed out without thinking and kicked the scissors from her hand.

No matter how despicable Xia Jianren was, in this world of law and order, individuals don’t have the right to take matters into their own hands, otherwise, that’s breaking the law.

Hearing the unsettling sound of the scissors hitting the floor, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

If Mrs. Xia had really killed Xia Jianren, she would have faced imprisonment.

The authorities quickly said, "Ma’am, please calm down, we understand your feelings, but you must trust that the authorities will give you a just resolution."

Considering Mrs. Xia’s collapsed state of mind, and the fact that the murder attempt had been timely prevented, the authorities gave her a stern talking-to without further punishment.

After all, anyone can understand the despair of a mother whose child has been kidnapped, especially when the kidnapper is her ex-husband, the child’s own biological father.
