The Reborn Aristocrat's Daughter-Chapter 23 - Orphanage_1

I’ll be right back.”

After hanging up, Old Master Situ said to the other elders, “Gentlemen, I apologize, but there’s been an emergency at home, and I must leave.

You can continue the discussion among yourselves.” “Situ, what happened?” Old Master Loo couldn’t help but ask, upon seeing his in-law’s demeanor.

Knowing that it was Old Master Loo who asked, and considering how the Loo Family cherished Situ Xin like a precious pearl, Old Master Situ didn’t choose to withhold information: “My wife just called and said that the Baby and Aunt Wu are missing.” Hearing Old Master Situ’s words, Old Master Loo also abruptly stood up.

“What?

How could this happen?

Situ, I’ll go with you.” Having said that, the two elders, along with their guards, hurriedly left.

“Has the Baby and Aunt Wu come back yet?” As soon as he entered, Old Master Situ called out to the house.

“Not yet,” the Old Madam replied, looking at her husband walking in, nearly bursting into tears from anxiety.

“Sister-in-law, what exactly happened?” Old Master Loo, who had come in with Old Master Situ, also asked urgently.

Old Madam Situ recounted to Old Master Situ and Old Master Loo what had happened after she got home.

After listening to Old Madam Situ, both Old Master Loo and Old Master Situ felt pressing concern, but they calmed down after a moment.

Having weathered many storms before, they knew that the more anxious they became, the less clear-headed they would be, making the situation even harder to handle.

Seeing Old Madam’s fretfulness, Old Master Loo said reassuringly, “Sister-in-law, don’t worry.

The Baby surely can’t be lost.” What Old Master Loo didn’t say aloud was that even if she were lost, he would dig three feet into the ground if necessary to find his granddaughter.

Old Master Loo and Old Master Situ ordered their guards to check inside the military compound to see if Aunt Wu had taken Situ Xin out to play.

Meanwhile, the two elders stayed behind to consider the possible scenarios that could have occurred.

After leaving Situ Xin at the orphanage, Aunt Wu got into the car with Lv Yan.

Lv Yan drove Aunt Wu to a secluded farmhouse.

“Your son is inside.” Getting out of the car, Lv Yan gestured for Aunt Wu to enter.

When Aunt Wu pushed the door open, she saw her son, who had noticeably lost weight; she embraced him and burst into tears.

“Enough, if you mother and son want to cry and vent, wait until you leave this city,” Lv Yan said impatiently, glancing at her watch.

“What?

Leave the city?” Aunt Wu’s son couldn’t believe it.

“Yes.

If you don’t leave this city, are you both ready to be caught?” Lv Yan said, then looked at Aunt Wu, “Aunt Wu, I trust you understand my point.” When planning this event, Lv Yan had intended to send Aunt Wu and her son far away upon success.

She certainly didn’t want this woman ruining her plans by running to the Situ Family.

“Mom, what does she mean?

Why do we have to leave?

Aren’t you working for the Situ Family?

How will we survive after leaving?” Aunt Wu’s son said anxiously.

“Son, don’t ask so many questions now; let’s go,” Aunt Wu replied, her heart filled with bitterness, and a deep sense of guilt when she thought of Situ Xin’s delicate little face.

“Come on, we have to go now, or it might be too late,” Lv Yan said, her words heavy with threat.

Although Aunt Wu’s son was reluctant and saw the helplessness in his mother’s eyes, in the end, he only moved his mouth silently, saying nothing.

“Report to the two chiefs, we’ve checked the entire compound and haven’t seen Aunt Wu or the young miss.” Following the instructions from Old Master Situ and Old Master Loo, the two guards had searched the entire military compound and found nothing.

“Furthermore, we have questioned the guards who were on duty at the gate today, and they also didn’t see Aunt Wu and the young miss leave,” another guard added.

Hearing the report from the guards, both Old Master Situ and Old Master Loo furrowed their brows; only now did they feel that the situation was complicated.

It never occurred to them that two people could disappear without a trace in the military compound.

Old Master Situ exchanged a look with Old Master Loo.

Then, Old Master Situ stood up, picked up the phone, and called his two sons in the military to briefly inform them of the situation.

Shortly after the call, Situ Haotian and Situ Haoran rushed back from the military.

Loo Yaxin, too, arrived hurriedly from her job.

“Mom and Dad, what exactly happened?

How could the Baby go missing?” Loo Yaxin was so anxious that tears kept falling, which made Situ Haotian’s heart wrench.

After stabilizing his wife’s emotions, Situ Haotian joined the two elders and his Big Brother in the study to discuss the matter.

“Dad, who could have done this, to take away the Baby silently from the military compound?” Situ Haotian’s voice was laced with impatience.

Every time he thought of his daughter, who would nestle in his arms and smile at him when he got home, Situ Haotian felt agonizing pain.

“Haotian, don’t be impatient; this matter cannot be rushed,” Situ Haoran said, patting Situ Haotian’s shoulder in a comforting manner.

“But when I find out who’s behind this, I’ll wipe out their entire family.” Situ Haoran’s voice was chilling with murderous intent.

“Let’s analyze the situation first.

Other matters can be dealt with after the Baby is found,” Old Master Situ and Old Master Loo said, their hearts heavy.

They, too, harbored impulses to kill but knew that finding the Baby was the most crucial matter.
