Chapter 551 Got Off the Hook Easily

“Brother, come here.” A man called Brother Hu aside. He looked in the direction of Chen Wenxuan, and then said in a low voice, “Shen Yan has brought a lot of policemen here. We’re surrounded. What should we do?”

Obviously, Shen Yan would not let Xia Yu come back again. They shouldn’t have listened to Chen Wenxuan before. If they had detained Shen Yan and Xia Yu, they would have the opportunity to negotiate with the police.

While Shen Yan had taken Xia Yu away. They were going to be caught by the police.

“Brother, I think Chen Wenxuan is a madman. Anyway, he is the mastermind, and it is he who kidnapped the kid and bought the guns. Why not we give him to the police now so that we can get leniency?” The man was really scared and persuaded Brother Hu.

Brother Hu looked out of the window. It seemed peaceful outside without anything unusual, while the more peaceful it was, the more dangerous they would be. Brother Hu thought for a while with a sullen face and then nodded.

Shen Yan took Xia Yu out and then left with her by boat since the police were there. Xia Yu was worried about Cheng Xi so much. She didn’t know his current situation, so as soon as the ship docked, she got into the car immediately to go to the hospital where Cheng Xi was.

Cheng Xi kept coughing.

After seeing Xia Yu, Cheng Xi flew at her. Holding Cheng Xi in her arms, Xia Yu shed tears. She had a lot to ask, but the child in her arms started coughing, so she immediately called the doctor over.

“Auntie, the injection hurts so much.” Cheng Xi stretched the back of his hand to Xia Yu and flattened his mouth.

Seeing the pinholes on the back of his hand, Xia Yu was on the verge of tears. She kissed his small face and was ready to comfort him.

While the doctor said with a smile, “Cheng Xi is a good boy, so uncle decided not to give you an injection.”

“Thank you, uncle.” Cheng Xi smiled with elation when he heard that he didn’t need an injection.

The doctor really did not give him an injection, but asked him to take some medicine, saying that his condition was under control and he didn’t need an injection anymore.

“Auntie, where is Uncle Shen Yan?” Cheng Xi had seen Shen Yan before. He knew that Shen Yan had gone to save Xia Yu, so he stayed in the hospital and waited for them. Since Xia Yu returned safely, Shen Yan must have saved her.

“I’m here. See what uncle brought you?” Shen Yan handed a model car to Cheng Xi.

“Thank you, uncle.” Cheng Xi looked very excited, holding the toy in his arms, and then went to bed to play with it.

“Xia Yu, you stay with Cheng Xi in the hospital. I have informed Wanru already. Don’t worry. I’ll go out to deal with something now and I’ll come back later.” Shen Yan said, holding Xia Yu’s hand.

“Okay. Go to do your work. There are bodyguards here. We are safe.” Although Chen Wenxuan had been caught, there were still many things that needed to be dealt with.

Knowing what Shen Yan was going to deal with, Xia Yu didn’t ask him about that. As for Chen Wenxuan, Xia Yu was totally disappointed in him. How she wished that she had never known him!

“Okay, I will be back soon.” Shen Yan turned around and walked out. After a few steps, he turned around and called, “Xia Yu!”

His eyes suddenly became so strange with hesitation in them.

“Huh? What’s the matter?” Xia Yu asked.

“Nothing. I’m leaving.” After that, Shen Yan turned around and left without looking back.

He must have something to say to her, but he did not do that. Why? Xia Yu didn’t question him, as she didn’t want to interrupt his business. She was ready to ask him when he had time.

Not long after she returned to the room, the bodyguard came in with the lunch box. She didn’t feel hungry before. While at this time she smelt the food, her belly rumbled. After Cheng Xi left the island, she was too worried to eat, and she had eaten nothing since she woke up in the morning.

The bodyguard bought Chinese food thoughtfully. They both had a good appetite, eating up all the food. Cheng Xi felt his bulging belly and burped.

Xia Yu felt like sleeping after she had finished eating. Since she was taken to the island by Chen Wenxuan, she had never slept well. Since she had left that prison at this time and Cheng Xi was also with her, she felt totally relaxed.

Not long after lying on the bed, she fell into a deep sleep without having a dream.

When Xia Yu woke up, she had been confused for a long time. Xia Yu looked around the room, but didn’t see Cheng Xi. Her heart sank. She threw back the bedclothes and jumped out of bed, while her legs felt like jelly. She would have fallen to the ground if she had not held the edge of the bed.

“Cheng Xi. Cheng Xi!” Xia Yu called Cheng Xi’s name aloud.

The door opened at this time. The bodyguard came in and said, “Cheng Xi is with Young Master Yan.”

Hearing his words, Xia Yu felt relieved. She wiped her forehead with her hand, which was full of cold sweat then. Xia Yu really had thought Cheng Xi was gone just a moment ago.

“Auntie, you woke up.”

Cheng Xi should have heard Xia Yu’s voice, so he ran from the next room with his two short legs. Shen Yan also came in.

“How long have I slept?” She looked at Shen Yan and asked him.

“You have slept clock around.” Xia Yu opened her mouth in amazement when she heard Shen Yan’s words. She should have slept for so long a time. She looked out of the window, and it was dark. She thought she had only slept for a few hours, but didn’t expect herself to have slept all day.

“We are going to go back tonight.” Shen Yan said again.

Since they were missing for two days, not only Mrs. Xia was on the verge of a breakdown, but even Wanru shed tears every day. When Shen Yan called Wanru to tell her that they had found Cheng Xi, she wanted to fly over immediately. Shen Yan and Zhou Yan persuaded her for a long time not to come, and finally she calmed down after having a video call with Cheng Xi.

Since Xia Yu also had taken a good rest and was in a good spirit, Shen Yan thought it was time to go back lest people should worry about them.

They could go back at long last. Xia Yu felt so elated. Since Cheng Xi was with her, she would not feel guilty for Wanru then.

Xia Yu couldn’t bear her excitement and wanted to call her mother, while she finally didn’t do that as she was afraid that her mother would cry after receiving her call. She planned to talk to her face to face after going back.

The discharge procedure was soon completed, and Cheng Xi was also very excited. While when he looked at the private plane in front of him, he refused to get on the plane with red eyes, holding Xia Yu’s arm tightly.

Xia Yu immediately thought of that day when he was forced to get on the plane and leave her, which must have left a scar on him. Thus this time he did not want to get on the plane.

“Auntie and uncle will get on the plane with you, and we will go home with you together. We will soon see your mother and Uncle Zhou Yan.” Xia Yu said softly to him.

“Really?” Cheng Xi’s red eyes just turned bright then. He confirmed that again with Xia Yu excitedly. After Xia Yu nodded, he immediately urged Xia Yu to get on the plane quickly. He missed his mother too much and wanted to return to her right away.

Xia Yu pinched his small face with a smile, and then got on the plane.

Shen Yan hadn’t said much since he got on the plane. He kept looking at Xia Yu hesitantly with worry in his eyes.

“Do you have anything to say to me?” Xia Yu couldn’t help asking him. The man in front of her was always decisive. His being so hesitant and tangled was really rare and aroused Xia Yu’s curiosity.

She had thought he would say it after she asked him, but he just called her name, and then suddenly stopped talking.

The more hesitant he was, the more curious Xia Yu was. But she couldn’t pry his mouth open and force him to talk to her, so she could only guess wildly in her heart.

A few hours later, the plane landed in S city. When getting off the plane, Shen Yan grabbed Xia Yu’s hand and said pleadingly, “I’ll take you home first.”

“I know! Of course you will take me home.” Xia Yu felt Shen Yan was weird and asked again, “Did anything happen when I was away?”

“Yeah, something happened. Go back first. Your mom is waiting at home.” Shen Yan’s eyes turned dim.

Something really happened. No wonder he kept looking hesitant. When Xia Yu was about to ask him what happened on earth, Wanru came over with Zhou Yan to take Cheng Xi home.

“Cheng Xi. My baby! You’re back! Did those bastards hit you or torture you?” Wanru flew to Cheng Xi after she got off the car, holding him in arms and kissing him.

“Mom!” Cheng Xi threw himself into Wanru’s arms, clasping her around neck, and cried aloud.

“I’m sorry to have got you in trouble.” After they calmed down, Xia Yu said apologetically.

“Xia Yu, are you okay? It’s not your fault. It’s Chen Wenxuan, that madman, who is to blame. After being arrested this time, he won’t be released soon, right?” How would Wanru blame Xia Yu? It was indeed an accident that time.

Moreover, as soon as Xia Yu heard that Cheng Xi had been taken away, she went to save him without hesitation. Wanru was so grateful to her for it.

“I’m fine, but Cheng Xi got ill on the island, and he hasn’t recovered yet.” Xia Yu did not mention Chen Wenxuan. Although she had left him, he was still a thorn in Xia Yu’s flesh.

“The doctors at Qingshan Hospital have examined Chen Wenxuan, and maybe he will be sent to the hospital for treatment in a few days.” Xia Yu had been avoiding Chen Wenxuan, while Shen Yan said aside. As the guardian of the victim, Wanru was entitled to know the situation of Chen Wenxuan.

When hearing the words “Qingshan Hospital”, Zhou Yan’s brows jumped. That madman just got off the hook so easily!

While since things had come to such a pass, they could do nothing then. Fortunately, Cheng Xi and Xia Yu both returned safely. Zhou Yan patted Xia Yu’s shoulder and said, “Go back first to meet your mom. Have a good rest tonight and come to me tomorrow.”

Xia Yu really needed psychological guidance after suffering so much. Shen Yan said, “Thank you, Zhou Yan!”

“That’s okay.” Zhou Yan smiled, and then said, “Shen Yan, everything that should or shouldn’t happen has already happened. You have to let it go.”

“I know. Cheng Xi is asleep. You go back quickly.” Shen Yan glanced at the child in Wanru’s arms and opened the door of the car for them.

“Okay, we’re leaving. Call us if anything happens.” When they got in the car, Wanru looked at Xia Yu with worry. It seemed she had a lot to say.
