Chapter 168: The Rabbit is Missing
the moment the danger occurred until this very instant, Tang Yucheng had kept An Xiaotu tightly held in his arms, not letting go even for a second. It was as if only when she remained nestled in his e...Chapter 168: The Little Rabbit Is Gone
Early morning, around 5:00.
As soon as Father An and Mother An got out of bed, they heard the doorbell ringing.
An mother thought it might be a makeup artist, so she quickly went to open the door.
"Good morning, Auntie!" Xiao Ya Bai greeted from the doorway, followed by her manager Gu Chuan, and two personal makeup artists.
As a bridesmaid for An Xiaotu, she naturally wanted to wait with An Xiaotu for the groom and his groomsmen to pick up the bride at the wedding scene; Although the Tang family said that all the expenses of bridesmaid dresses, jewelry, etc. were covered, Xiao Ya Bai refused.
This was her best friend's wedding, talking about money would be too crass; so Xiao Ya Bai directly brought the dress and makeup artist to An's place, waiting to leave from here for the wedding venue later.
"Good morning, Ya Bai is here, come in quickly, and Mr. Gu as well, everyone else." Mother An hurriedly invited people into the house, with a helpless yet doting smile, "This little rabbit hasn't probably woken up yet."
"Still asleep I thought she'd be too excited to sleep a wink." Xiao Ya playfully 'tsk'-ed twice, "Auntie An, I'll go wake up Little Rabbit."
Saying that, he walked towards An Xiaotu's room.
As she pushed open the door and stepped into the room, she saw that the bed was empty. Xiao Ya Bai smiled and muttered to herself, "Mama An thought the little bunny hadn't woken up yet, but some people seem eager to start the day, getting up early."
As she spoke, she turned her head to look at the bathroom. There was no light on and she heard no sounds.
She walked gracefully towards the bathroom, calling out, "An Xiaotu, this young lady is here, come out and greet me."
Looking at the empty bathroom, Xiao Ya Bai was even more puzzled.
She sat on the edge of the bed, her slender and graceful legs gracefully crossed, raising her voice, “Little rabbit, you dare to hide from this young lady, are you tired of living Come out quickly.”
After a few minutes, there was still no movement in the room.
Xiao Ya Bai frowned, the room wasn't large. She looked through the closet and every place someone could possibly hide, but she didn't see An Xiao Tu.
She left the room and walked to the kitchen where An's mother was making breakfast. "An's mother," she said, "Little Rabbit isn't in the room."
"He's not in the room" An mother looked puzzled. "Maybe he's in the study or somewhere else Ya Bai, go tell your Dad and ask him to take a look... This child, even at this time, doesn't give people peace of mind."
An Fu went to the study but didn't see An Xiaotu.
Then he looked in other parts of the house, but still couldn't find anyone. He was starting to be puzzled now.
"Dad, do you think Xiaotu went out I'll give her a call." Xiao Yabai said, then took out her phone and dialed Xiaotu's number.
"Before the sun had even risen, she was gone. Where could she have gone" An's father frowned and said.
Just now, I didn't feel anything. Now that I can't find my daughter, a sense of unease is growing in Anfu's heart.
Xiao Yabai turned her head to look at An Fu, her face somewhat grave as she asked, "Xiaotu's phone can't be reached, it's switched off. Should we tell the Second Master"
The bride has disappeared at this crucial moment...
An's mother walked over, her face etched with worry. "Do you think Xiaotu is deliberately hiding Last night, she took some heirloom jewelry and dowry from us. We chatted for a bit, then she suddenly said she couldn't bear to leave us and claimed she didn't want to get married anymore. She asked Yu Cheng to cancel the wedding. After that, I scolded her, and then I went back to my room."
A mother would not want to think that her daughter had something happen to her, she just thinks that her daughter might have wedding jitters.
"No, little rabbit would at most just talk. If the wedding were really canceled, she'd probably be more anxious than anyone else." Father An denied with a word, and glanced at the time.
It's almost six o'clock now, and the makeup artist will come to do the bride's makeup at half past six...
After a moment of contemplation, An's father dialed Tang Yucheng's phone.
"Dad, good morning." Tang Yucheng's slightly excited low voice came through the phone. One could hear his excitement and anticipation for the wedding he was having with An Xiaotu today.
"Yu Cheng," An's father hesitated, "The little rabbit may be gone."
"..."
After the words fell, a silence descended on both ends of the phone.
A few seconds later.
Tang Yucheng's voice suddenly turned icy, his tone tense as he asked, "Dad, what do you mean by that"
"Little Rabbit is not at home and her phone is turned off, we can't get in touch with her right now. We can't find her." An's father replied succinctly.
"I understand, Little Rabbit. If you get home, give me a call." Tang Yucheng finished speaking and immediately hung up the phone.
Tang Mo Qing was already dressed impeccably, his hair meticulously combed, and his face radiant. He was waiting for the appointed time to go pick up the bride.
In a dashing black suit, he looked radiant and handsome. His stunningly beautiful face captivated your eyes; however, he was still slightly outshone by Tang Yucheng in his resplendent red Chinese wedding attire, radiating nobility and grandeur.
That natural air of nobility and the powerful aura honed in the 'Wolf Fang' special forces, even compared to his own brother, Tang Moqing who was born into the same noble family and excelled in the business world, was still slightly inferior.
Tang Moqing stood opposite Tang Yucheng under the night sky. Seeing his second brother's face become tense and ice-cold after he finished the phone call, he asked, "Second Brother, is something wrong with Second Sister-in-law"
"The little rabbit is missing, you must investigate immediately, we must find her before the wedding." Tang Yucheng's deep black eyes flashed a coldness, he clenched his phone tightly, his knuckles bulging.
"What, what" Tang Moqing was so startled that he stood there dumbfounded. His second sister-in-law had disappeared at this moment
A sharp cold light shot over, he immediately replied, "Second brother, I'll go, I'll investigate right away."
"Wait!" Tang Yucheng suddenly called out to him.
As if he had thought of something, his eyes narrowed coldly, and he quickly opened his phone, flipping out the text message An Xiaotu had sent him before.
Then, he quickly made a phone call.
The phone was answered by Tang Xiu's housekeeper, Zhong. Zhong respectfully called out, "Second Master, good morning. Is there anything I can do for you"
"Who are you" Tang Yucheng went straight to the point.
"Young Master Si Xiu went out last night and hasn't returned yet." Zhong, the housekeeper, was completely clueless about what had happened, he simply answered truthfully.
It's commonplace for the young master to stay out all night now. Zhong Guanjia didn't pay much attention to what he asked Tang Yucheng.
As if confirming his suspicions, Tang Yucheng's face darkened, and he coldly hung up the phone.
He was now radiating a chilling and formidable aura, like a sullen tyrant, issuing orders to Tang Mo Qingye, "Where is Si Xiu now And what has he been doing lately Find out immediately."
"Second Brother, are you saying that your nephew stole Second Sister-in-law away" Tang Moqing was startled and asked with a solemn expression.
They knew about the nephew's feelings for his second aunt-in-law and had advised him. They thought that after the wedding between the second brother and his second aunt-in-law, the nephew would give up on those thoughts, but they didn't expect him to be so stubborn. He actually kidnapped his second aunt-in-law on the eve of the wedding...of Tang Yu Cheng's phone.Just a quick glance sent chills down her spine.That person in the sea of fire was...the Second Mistress.Tang Yucheng quickly forced himself to regain his composure, dialing Ta...
