Chapter 586: A Survival Guide for Women in the Old Republic of China (125)

The first person to discover the problem was still Su Xiangran. She knew very well that her brother often did not come home because of research meetings, but it was never the case that there was no news for such a long time like this time.

So she rushed to his laboratory without hesitation. When everyone else opened Su Yanqing's exclusive laboratory, as expected, there was no one inside.

"Professor Su seems to have returned home before." At this time, a student who had been helping Su Yanqing suddenly interrupted.

It turned out that the student had taken leave to go home for something and only returned to school today.

Upon hearing this, Su Xiangran's first reaction was that something must have happened to her brother. She immediately thought of the fact that the number of spies monitoring her had decreased significantly recently.

As soon as this thought came to her mind, she immediately became alert: her brother Su Yanqing was most likely captured by the enemy!

"When was the last time you saw my brother?" Su Xiangran asked the student anxiously.

The man recalled carefully and estimated: "It was about three days ago, but I don't know if Professor Su has ever come back in these three days?"

It goes without saying that Su Yanqing definitely has not returned to school. After all, he hasn't even gone home.

By this calculation, Su Yanqing has been "missing" for three days.

Su Xiangran made a prompt decision and planned to go find her uncle Cao Ce first and use the situation to attack these people.

No matter what, the fact that Su Yanqing was arrested "for no reason" must be made public. Otherwise, if we rescue him secretly, what if the other party becomes desperate and does something shady?

Su Xiangran went directly to the military camp to find her uncle Cao Ce.

Thanks to the fact that she had practiced shooting and riding here in previous years, many veteran soldiers here knew her, so they did not stop her and she met her uncle Cao Ce who was reading documents.

In fact, ever since Su Xiangran grew up, Cao Ce rarely saw her. Although he still gave gifts to his niece, he seldom met her.

Cao Ce was also very surprised to see the other party rushing to find him this time: "Xiao Ran, is there something wrong with you?"

"Uncle, my brother has been arrested." Su Xiangran changed from her usual smart and capable appearance to a sad face, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

When Cao Ce looked up and saw her expression, his heart skipped a beat. Seeing her expression like that on such an appearance, he felt a little sour in his heart.

"What's wrong?" Seeing her like this, Cao Ce stood up from his chair almost reflexively, "If you have suffered any injustice, just tell me.

Apart from anything else, no one in this small area of ​​Haishi can bully you."

Su Xiangran's eyes were filled with tears, but they did not fall. Misty eyes filled with tears, making her look even more pitiful.

However, she knew when to stop and didn't beat around the bush. She sobbed and told him about Su Yanqing's disappearance and her own speculations.

"They are rebelling!" Cao Ce was furious after hearing this. "Why is it that the meal took a little longer and people are suspicious of it? Xiao Ran, don't worry, I will go and bring Yan Qing out."

After saying that, he was about to take people to the Secret Service Department.

Cao Shixun also received the news that Su Xiangran came to see his father. Of course, he couldn't let the other party ruin his plan. However, he was not in the military camp at the moment, but in the arms of his own second concubine in the Cao Mansion.

As soon as he heard the news from his subordinates, he stood up from the bed and wanted to stop his father anxiously.

"Young Marshal, the Marshal is about to arrive at the Secret Service Department with his men." The subordinate's words were self-evident. It was too late to rush to the military camp now.

Cao Shixun quickly put on his military uniform and decisively ordered: "Go to the Secret Service Department immediately!"

He knew that time was running out and he had to get there before his father Cao Ce arrived and let the spies hide Su Yanqing. As long as Su Yanqing was not found, a lot of unnecessary trouble could be avoided.

However, just as he stepped out of the room, he "ran into" his wife Xie Wanru.

"Young Marshal, where are you going?" Xie Wanru said coquettishly, while handing the child in her arms to Cao Shixun, "You came home, but you don't know how to spend more time with the child."

Looking at the hand that Xie Wanru stretched out to her and the cute child in her arms, although Cao Shixun was extremely reluctant, he still obediently took the child.

This seemed to be the beginning. After taking over the youngest son, his eldest daughter and second son also surrounded Cao Shixun, wanting him to hug them.

Cao Shixun looked at Xie Wanru with a blaming look, as if it was all her fault.

However, Xie Wanru changed her usual behavior and said in a happy tone: "Young Marshal, look how close the children are to you! It shows that this blood relationship can never be changed."

When the word "blood relationship" was mentioned, Cao Shixun suddenly thought sensitively: Is Xie Wanru referring to me?

However, he didn't have much time left. Without having time to think about Xie Wanru's intentions, Cao Shixun hurried out of the Cao Mansion after holding a few children.

just

"Where's the car?" Cao Shixun asked the servant unhappily.

The man replied tremblingly, "We didn't know the young marshal needed a car! His wife just went out in a car for something."

Hearing that he and his mother were almost dead, Cao Shixun could not help but feel regretful. He could only ask someone to call a rickshaw for him and rush to the secret service department.

Xie Wanru distributed snacks to several children, and gave the youngest one a small piece of apple. Then she patted their heads and said, "You all behaved well today!"
