Even though I couldn’t explain why, I was in a bad mood for the rest of the day. I barely talked to anyone, and when I did, they realized something was off and left me alone.At one point, I was told that Qing Han wanted me in his office, but I ignored him.Why would he need me? I even wondered what he was doing in his office instead of being at the airport picking up his girlfriend, or somewhere else having fun.Mo Xuan wasn’t picking up my calls either, and that was eating at me.A few minutes before clock-out time, I received a message from Qing Han.“Meet me at the hotel across the street. Same room.”I looked at it and felt even angrier. Did he think that after everything that had happened, I would still listen to him?So, when it was time to leave, I picked up my bag and used the stairs instead. I knew that was the time I would usually meet him at the front door, or his secretary with a load of files.I didn’t care about the overtime. As long as I didn’t resign on my own, there

Qing Han looked at me with furrowed brows. “What?” he asked.And it was then that I remembered what he thought. “Oh, yeah… I checked. Mo Xuan didn’t pick him up. He’s out of town.”Qing Han didn’t immediately look away. “Are you sure about that this time?”“Yeah! I said he’s out of town!” I snapped, losing it a bit.Qing Han didn’t seem bothered by my outburst. He took out his phone and made a call.“Where are you?” he asked. I looked at him in confusion.The person on the other side said something, but I couldn’t hear it.“Did you see a child? Three years old?” he asked, and that sparked my interest.I looked back at him, my whole body shaking. Did he know something that could help?He nodded after a few seconds. “Use every means to find out if he’s there. Call me as soon as you find something,” he said and hung up.“What was that?” I asked the moment he ended the call.Qing Han looked at me briefly before making another call. I was getting even more anxious.“I want you to track dow

I had only taken a few steps when Qing Han pulled me back. He looked at me like I was a fool. “Didn’t you just hear what he said? There are more than twenty armed men in there,” he said. I tried to break free from him. “Yeah, and those men have my son. He is all alone and scared,” I said, wanting to cry again. Qing Han sighed. “The moment you go through that gate, they are going to shoot. That’s how criminals behave. But if you don’t care about your son’s life, you are free to go,” he said and released me. I looked in the direction of the gate and cursed in my heart. “What should we do now?” I asked. Qing Han looked at me briefly. “We are waiting for backup.” Then he turned to look at his man. “How far are they?” “Five minutes at most, sir,” the man replied. Qing Han walked toward me and looked into my eyes. Immediately, I knew that he was very serious about what he was going to say. “When those men come, you won’t go in. You will wait out here until everything is clear,” he s

Qing Han’s hand tightened around mine. “What are you doing?” he asked. I was sure that he wasn’t happy that I had tried to take control of the situation. But I could see the doctor waver. “Are you Dr. Wan?” he asked. I immediately nodded my head. “I don’t know who you’re working for, but their intentions were to have me. That’s why they kidnapped my son. They must have told you not to hurt him, right?” His eyes moved anxiously between Tuan Tuan and me. Qing Han stopped talking. He must have realized that we had no other way out. Or maybe, he just thought that it was the easiest way of getting rid of me. “Will you come with me if I let him go?” he asked. And I immediately nodded my head. “Yeah! I’ll come with you. I’ll do anything you guys want. Just let my son go,” I said, my voice shaking. He took the gun off Tuan Tuan’s shoulder and pointed it at Qing Han. “Make him promise that he will let us go. I only want you. I don’t want any trouble.” I turned to look at Qing Han. But h

I was silent for a few seconds, trying to make sense of everything. When he called Ming, the first thing he asked was if he had seen a kid. Was there something he hadn’t told me? “Yeah. Everything is fine,” I said, nodding my head. I didn’t even know why I lied. But my expression must have given me away. Qing Han moved even closer to me and looked at my face. “Something is obviously bothering you. What did he say to you?” he asked. I hesitated for a few seconds. “Um, how did Ming find Tuan Tuan so fast?” I asked. Qing Han narrowed his brows slightly before taking a deep breath. “Oh, that?” My expression darkened a little. Was there something else apart from that? I didn’t respond. I just observed him quietly. Why did he seem a bit off? He rubbed his brows awkwardly. “I had Ming following you,” he said after a short pause. My eyes widened in shock. “You mean you had him stalk me for you? Why would you do that?” I asked. Qing Han’s expression turned uneasy, almost embarrassed.
