Chapter 286: Chapter 287 Where did Guibao go? 3

Ma Xiulian was anxious beyond words!

Not a single person had seen Guibao – could she have sprouted wings and flown away?

She would not have believed such a thing of anyone else, yet knowing that her beloved Guibao was nothing short of a fairy child, anything seemed possible.

With a lingering shred of hope, she went to the radio factory in search of the Gu Family, only to learn they had all gone to town for a family portrait.

If the Gu Family had taken Guibao with them, they would have definitely let her know.

Thinking of this made her heart flutter with dread.

Please, don’t let her have fallen into the river, or have been snatched by some wild beast!

Though Guibao was a fairy child, it was the new year, and who knew, maybe even the gods were distracted with celebration.

Luckily, at that moment, Zhou Zhaodi returned from the river’s edge, panting heavily, leaning on his knee and said, "The people who live by the river said they haven’t seen Guibao playing near the river."

Ma Xiulian had just breathed a sigh of relief when Chen Jianmin came racing over in a panic: "Mom, someone saw Dabai running towards the foothills."

Ma Xiulian felt a shroud of darkness pass over her eyes, she nearly fainted, but she managed to grit her teeth and stand firm. "I’ll go look in the mountain!" she declared.

Then, with that, she began to stride forward.

Chen Jianguo urgently tried to stop her: "Mom, don’t worry. We’ll go home, grab some tools, then accompany you into the mountain."

Going into the mountain teeming with wild beasts without anything, would be like offering those beasts a meal on a silver platter.

Chen Jiandang chimed in: "Yes, mom, given the vastness of the mountain, we’d better gather more people to help. It’s faster and safer this way."

Hearing this, Ma Xiulian shot them a cold, reproachful look: "I’m going to ask the village leader to round up some volunteers to look for Guibao in the mountains, I can’t trust relying solely on the Chen Family! If we run into a bear, forget about finding Guibao, you lot will certainly turn tail and run."

She still vividly remembered the previous encounter with the bear.

If it hadn’t been for Guibao’s good fortune and divine protection, she might not have come back!

But what if the gods were taking a nap now!

Being reminded of their previous retreat, her three sons looked shame-faced.

Chen Jianye hung his head lower, promising with a muffled voice, "Mom, rest assured, no matter what happens, I promise you, we’ll bring Guibao home safe and sound!"

Even though Guibao had been adopted by their youngest brother, as her biological father, he simply couldn’t stand by and watch her meet her demise.

This was his duty to Guibao!

Chen Jianguo and Chen Jiandang nodded vigorously. This time, they couldn’t afford to be called cowards by their mother again.

But deep inside, Li Chunhua wished fervently that the ungrateful girl would become a meal for a bear!

Without uttering a word, Ma Xiulian ran all the way to the village leader’s house for help.

"Village leader! Guibao is missing. She is nowhere to be found, neither in the village nor along the river. It’s likely she wandered into the mountains. She’s just a little child, and if she encounters a bear, she wouldn’t even be enough as a toothpick for it. Please quickly gather people to help me search for her in the mountains!"

Desperate, she reached forward and clung tightly to Zhao Mancao’s arm, begging.

Upon hearing this news, Zhao Mancao immediately set down his bowl and chopsticks. "Don’t worry, Madam Ma, the child will be fine. I’ll gather a team right away. Wait by the house."

Without any delay, he grabbed a loudspeaker and began to summon the villagers: "Everyone gather! Guibao from the Chen Family, who we all know very well, is missing. It’s highly likely that she went into the mountains. It’s dangerous for a little girl like her to enter the wilderness. We have to help out and go search for her. Gather up, everyone!"
