Chapter 46 - 046: Almost Suffocated
"Qianshui, are you serious? You found Xixi?"
Mu Qianshui's mother, Ning Zitong, stood up excitedly.
"Yes, my friend just helped me gather some information."
Mu Qianshui said as she opened a short video and handed her phone over.
The two refined women stood up simultaneously to look at the screen. The footage wasn't very clear, but Mu Chenxi's distinct and exquisite features were easy to recognize.
"That's definitely our Xixi!"
Ning Zitong was elated, but her smile quickly faded.
"Who is this woman? Did she kidnap Xixi?"
She pointed at the image of the woman holding little Chenxi's hand in the video, questioning suspiciously.
"The footage is a bit blurry; I don't know who she is. But I've already asked my friend to investigate it further. Hopefully, Xixi is safe."
Mu Qianshui said worriedly, furrowing her brows.
"I was only abroad for three months, yet so much has happened upon my return. Chuxi has a girlfriend, and now Xixi has been abducted by someone."
"Qianshui."
Lin Yuan'ai set the phone down and walked over to Mu Qianshui, her face showing warmth and maternal affection.
"Aunt Lin only sees you as the future daughter-in-law of the Mo family."
"Thank you, Aunt Lin, for holding me in such high esteem. But all along, I've always seen Chuxi as a brother-in-law. I know he still thinks about my sister, Qianyuan, constantly."
Mentioning her daughter who had tragically passed away over a decade ago, Ning Zitong clutched her chest in pain.
"My little Yuan..."
Lin Yuan'ai also sighed sorrowfully.
"Qianyuan truly was an exceptional girl. If she hadn't sacrificed herself back then, Chuxi wouldn't be where he is today. It's just such a pity..."
"Mommy, Aunt Lin."
Mu Qianshui quickly interrupted, grasping both their hands.
"If my sister were here, she wouldn't want you to dwell on the past tragedy. What matters most now is finding Xixi."
Listening to Mu Qianshui's comforting words, Lin Yuan'ai nodded with a relieved smile.
"Qianshui, you're so thoughtful. Leave Xixi's matter to me. The woman in the video—I think I recognize her."
"Yuan'ai, you said you know this woman?"
Ning Zitong looked at her in surprise, and Mu Qianshui also appeared taken aback.
"Aunt Lin, you know her?"
"Sort of."
Lin Yuan'ai turned and sat back down on the European-style sofa, lifting her coffee cup with elegance to take a sip.
"Since she wants to make a name for herself, I'll help her with that."
Lin Yuan'ai spoke meaningfully. Mu Qianshui looked at her with a hint of puzzlement, though her heart already seemed to understand clearly.

The morning classes ended on time.
Yan Xinxin greeted Lan Xuan before hurriedly leaving the classroom.
The early summer sunshine was gentle, and the breeze felt soothing. Yet Yan Xinxin's chest felt tight.
Ever since she heard what Mu Qianshui said earlier this morning, her heart had felt heavy, with faint twinges of pain.
"Hoo—"
Yan Xinxin took a deep breath, clutching her textbooks as she walked briskly towards the school gate.
But inexplicably, she started to feel short of breath.
Her vision suddenly darkened for a moment, and Yan Xinxin quickly reached out to support herself against the wall.
What's happening?
The pressure in her chest was increasing—it felt like drowning, like she was on the verge of suffocation...
"It's you."
A male voice suddenly sounded in front of her, bringing back a sliver of her scattered consciousness.
She raised her hazy eyes and saw Xu Nuo's cold and solitary face.
Seeing Yan Xinxin's pale complexion, Xu Nuo paused in surprise.
"Yan Xinxin, you... Hey!"
