Chapter 2399 Finding the Child
"Then you have to wait for me~" After saying that, Qiao Yu gave Cai Ming a smug look and turned around to walk into the room.
After Qiao Yu walked through the door, Jiang Kai staggered to the sofa and lay down as he asked, "Why aren't you jealous?"
Cai Ming chuckled and said, "What's there to be jealous about? I know you favor me and that's enough. I don't ask for much. I just want you to always have me in your heart."
Jiang Kai smiled in satisfaction. This was what he liked about Cai Ming the most. She knew his limits and always behaved appropriately.
This time round, it was not that he did not want to bring Cai Ming along, but because only Qiao Yu could live in that house. Many years ago, he had encountered a crisis and at that time, the incident almost cost him his life. By chance, he had met a guru who read his fortune. The guru said that as long as he found women whose life fortunes were compatible with his, they could help him avoid the calamity.
He had bought this house after the guru pinpointed the location for him. In this house, he could absorb the luck of the women such that they would block the calamity for him. The previous women he found were all quite luckless and they could not last for more than a few days.
Qiao Yu was different. The guru had said that Qiao Yu's life fortune was strong enough to last for more than half a year! As long as Qiao Yu lived in the house, he would have an endless stream of good fortune!
"Brother Kai, I'm done packing~" Qiao Yu said as she dragged her luggage behind her. Dong Hui followed behind with an obedient Xia Yang in his arms.
"This is that child you mentioned? I hear that he's sick and about to die. Quickly throw him away outside. Don't dirty my place," Jiang Kai said as he looked at Xia Yang in disdain.
He did not know where this child came from, but he knew very well that Qiao Yu really wanted the child. As long as it made Qiao Yu happy enough to move into that house voluntarily, it did not matter how much effort it took.
"Brother Kai, he's still alive. The doctor says that he can be cured," Qiao Yu said coquettishly.
"Even so, that won't do. The child will have to stay here. Only you can come with me," Jiang Kai said impatiently.
The guru had said that the house could only be occupied by him and Qiao Yu. No one else was allowed! The guru would even personally prepare and deliver three meals a day to them!
"Brother Kai…" Qiao Yu wanted to try her luck again, but when she saw the look of fury on Jiang Kai's face, she did not dare to make him angry. All she could do was to ask Dong Hui to wrap the child up warmly and leave him inside the basement room outside the city.
Cai Ming waved her hands and said, "Just send him to the orphanage. That way, it can be considered a good deed."
As soon as he heard the words "good deed", Jiang Kai immediately agreed. He made arrangements to send the child to the orphanage and rushed to bring Qiao Yu to the house at the time stipulated by the guru. He did not want to be late by even a minute!
However, Xia Zhe and the others did not know that the child was no longer here. As planned, they dressed up like doctors and went to Cai Ming's house.
"Hello, we're doctors on call," Xia Zhe said calmly.
The maid looked at the letter in Xia Zhe's hand and said, "There was a patient here in the past, but there's no need now. You can head back."
"No need now? Has he recovered from his illness?" Xia Zhe asked as he looked at the maid in shock. Could it be that the child was already… dead? Were they too late?
"The child has been sent away. You can leave now." The maid closed the door after saying that.
Xia Zhe hurriedly brought Qiao Mei to look for Feng Ce. He was sure that Feng Ce had many contacts and would definitely be able to find out where the child was now!
Qiao Mei frantically tried to tap on the memories of the plants nearby. She saw the child being taken away by a fierce man and the man looked like… like he was dealing with a piece of trash. Xia Yang was motionless and his face was very pale.
Qiao Mei was frantically anxious. As the two of them went downstairs, they saw Dong Hui coming back in the car. Qiao Mei threw all caution to the wind and immediately rushed over, pressing Dong Hui to the ground and roared, "Where is the child! Where is my child!!!"
Qiao Mei was very strong and Dong Hui could clearly feel that two of his ribs were broken and his shoulder was also dislocated. Who exactly was this woman!
"Speak! Where is my child!" Qiao Mei roared.
"He's at the orphanage! He was sent to the orphanage!" Dong Hui said while in pain.
Qiao Mei reduced the magnitude of her strength as she finally felt relieved. She asked calmly, "Is the child still alive?"
"Alive! Still alive! You should rush to the orphanage now! Otherwise, the child might get adopted by someone else later!" Dong Hui said as he struggled.
Xia Zhe waved his hand and asked his subordinates to go into the house and restrain everyone inside. They immediately led Dong Hui to go and look for the child. Qiao Mei finally saw Xia Yang. Although she did not see Xia Yang clearly when he was born, her maternity instinct immediately confirmed that this was her child.
Qiao Mei's heart ached as she hugged Xia Yang. She quickly took out the medicinal wine and fed it to him shakily. Her heart felt like it was going to break when she saw how he had been treated!
