Chapter 227: Shao Dong and Shao Nan Got Kidnapped

Mu Jingzhe shook her head. “It’s fine. Anyway, I’m not famous now, but I’m still quite confident. Have you seen the formal evening wear Little Bei and my other son, Little Nan, wore? It was all made by me.”

Chen Ling’s eyes lit up. “Was what she is wearing today made by you too? You’re amazing. Little Bei’s clothes are lovely.”

“Right? Right? So you can relax and let me do it. If you dress well and help me advertise, I’ll have more business in the future.”

This was just a polite way to put it. She was merely a newbie now… but in the end, Chen Ling couldn’t bear to refuse. “Then please help me make an outfit. But it won’t be for free. I’ll pay you according to your salary.”

Mu Jingzhe pondered it for a moment before nodding. “Alright, it’s settled then.”

Now that Mu Jingzhe had taken the job, she would do it well. She earnestly bought the things she needed and started to get busy. There were quite a lot of things to do. Fortunately, Shao Qihai had returned and taken over many of the kids’ matters. Thus, even though she was busy, it was still manageable.

Speaking of that, now that the children were properly nourished, they had grown much taller than before, and it had become quite difficult to use a bicycle to take them anywhere. Although Mu Jingzhe said that it was fine, Shao Qihai didn’t allow Mu Jingzhe to transport them anymore after he took them to the art school twice.

Then, Shao Qihai drove a green jeep back and said that he would use this jeep to pick up the children in the future.

Although Shao Qihai said that the car was an old one, it still attracted the attention of the villagers. When they saw the car, a few people privately said that Shao Qihai was living off of a woman.

Mu Jingzhe walked around the car, not because of any other reason, but because the car started like a tractor.

Mu Jingzhe’s eyes widened the first time she saw Shao Qihai activate the lever. She had really never seen this before.

However, having a car was indeed convenient. The children also suffered less. Otherwise, not only would they be exposed to the elements, but they would also suffer during the bumpy ride. Although the car ride was still bumpy, it was much better overall.

That day was Sunday, the day they attended art school.

“Mommy, we’re leaving.”

“Mm, go ahead. Be careful.”

After she walked the children to the car, they were just about to leave when Zhao Lan suddenly appeared. She said that she was going to town too and asked Shao Qihai to take her there. The passenger seat was still empty, but Shao Qihai didn’t stop at all. He lied through his teeth and left after saying that the car couldn’t carry an additional person.

Seeing Zhao Lan puffed up with anger, Mu Jingzhe shook her head and went back to work. The five kids would only be back from art school at night.

Because Shao Qihai said he had money, the five kids went to take the other courses they’d previously desired to take but hadn’t asked for.

Shao Xi was filled with curiosity and signed up for all the subjects in the art school that he could sign up for in one go. Shao Dong and the others did the same. Although they didn’t take all the classes, they generously signed up for everything they were interested in.

As a result, their schedule for the entire day was almost full.

After Shao Qihai drove them there, he happened to be busy with the transportation convoy, so he would pick them up after he was done.

That day, the teacher of the last art class had a severe case of diarrhea. He ran to the washroom twice in the middle of the class, but in the end, he didn’t persist until the end of the class. The class was dismissed ten minutes earlier, and he said that he would make up for it next time.

The five kids walked out slowly, thinking that Shao Qihai had yet to arrive. In the end, they saw Shao Qihai’s car when they reached the school gate.

After checking the license plate, the five kids walked over. The car door was open, and Shao Dong got in first. Mu Jingzhe had said before that children couldn’t be in the passenger seat, so although it would be more comfortable to sit in the passenger seat, they listened to Mu Jingzhe and didn’t go to the front.

Shao Dong was about to sit down when he felt that something was wrong with the seat. He looked at the driver’s seat in confusion, only to see that the person in front had his head lowered. His face couldn’t be seen, and he didn’t say a word.

This made things seem even more wrong. Previously, Shao Qihai would always alight from the car when he picked them up. He would also greet them very warmly.

Shao Dong looked at the front passenger seat and saw that there seemed to be someone hiding there. He was alarmed. “Don’t get in the car.”

It was already too late. While he was observing, Shao Nan and Little Bei had gotten into the car. Shao Xi was carrying Xiao Wu and lifting him into the car.

As soon as he finished speaking, the person in the front reacted quickly. The man hiding in the passenger seat got up and reached out to grab them. Seeing that he was about to grab Little Bei, Shao Dong pounced on him and shouted, “Little Bei, run!”

Then, he bit that person’s arm.

The person in the driver’s seat cursed softly and was about to start the car. Shao Nan, who was about to get out, stepped forward and covered the driver’s eyes tightly.

Shao Xi caught Little Bei and was ready to grab Shao Nan when the driver screamed. He had already angrily grabbed Shao Nan’s hand and flung it. Shao Nan screamed and was flung onto Shao Dong.

Seeing that Shao Xi was about to get in the car to pull him out, Shao Nan shouted, “Don’t come in!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the driver started the car without bothering to close the door and the car instantly sped off.

“Little Nan, Big Brother!”

Shao Xi and Little Bei chased after the car with all their might. Xiao Wu was also behind them. They used all their strength but couldn’t outrun the car. Soon, the car disappeared.

Seeing that he couldn’t catch up, Shao Xi could only stop helplessly. “Get the police.”

“I’ll go find our teacher!” Little Bei shouted.

As she ran very quickly, her legs went limp and she couldn’t catch her breath. However, she couldn’t care less and continued running back. A second later, Shao Xi pulled Little Bei back.

“No, Little Bei, we can’t split up and run around. We have to find the teacher first and go to a crowded place in the art school!”

Who knew if someone was hiding somewhere and preparing to catch them? Shao Xi was burning with anxiety. However, since Shao Dong wasn’t around, he tried his best to calm himself down and bear the responsibility of being a big brother. He thought that his top priority was to protect Little Bei and Xiao Wu.

Shao Xi pulled Little Bei and Xiao Wu back to the school. He first found the teacher and quickly explained the situation. “Teacher, please help us get the police.”

Mommy had said that regardless of whether they lost something or encountered a dangerous situation, the first thing they had to do was look for the police.

When the teacher, who was standing at the door, heard that this had happened, she was shocked. “Alright, I’ll go look for them. Don’t run around. I’ll protect you. Did you see your father just now? Was that really your father’s car?”

She didn’t know if the kidnappers had stolen the car or something had happened to their father as well.

Shao Xi was a little hesitant. “I’m not certain. I didn’t get in the car, but the license plate belongs to our family.”

“I don’t think it’s our car,” Little Bei, who went over, added.

“Alright, I understand. I’ll take you to the police now.”

The teacher reacted very quickly. She first closed the door and asked the students who had just finished school not to go out for the time being in case something happened again. She wanted them to wait for their parents to pick them up before going out. She also planned to call the other teachers and parents to help and protect Shao Xi and the rest as they went to the police station.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she came out, she saw Shao Qihai asking someone what was wrong with the school. She also saw a jeep parked not far away.
