Abstinence Admiral Don't Bite, the Softer Mermaid Top Thug

Chapter 207 Xiaoyu is Missing
Jing Xiaoyu looked up at Jing Weimian, who had appeared in front of her.

Perhaps because she had just woken up and her mind was still foggy, Jing Xiaoyu opened and closed her mouth, blurting out in a short, soft voice:

"Mother."

Jing Weimian's hand on the doorknob tightened slightly. "What did you call me?"

Jing Xiaoyu could hear the sudden chill in her mother's tone and immediately realized what she had just said.

He recalled his mother admitting in front of his father that she didn't like him, and his eyes welled up with tears. He quickly lowered his head and apologized.

"I'm sorry, I just dreamt about Mom. I didn't mean to... Please don't be angry..."

Jing Weimian realized that her attitude just now had frightened the child a bit, and her expression softened slightly as she said, "I'm not angry."

She called the maid to take the little guy to wash up and change his clothes before taking him downstairs for a meal.

Jing Xiaoyu was very polite. As soon as she arrived at the restaurant, she obediently greeted, "Good morning, Grandpa Jing and Grandma Jing." Jing Weichen, who followed her downstairs, also took the initiative to greet her, "Good morning, brother."

The Marshal's wife and husband grew increasingly fond of their beloved grandson. Their eyes met, and they eagerly beckoned to the empty seat beside them.

"Little Yu, come here and sit here with Grandma!"

Before Jing Xiaoyu could answer, Jing Weichen pulled open the door next to his seat:

"Sweetie, sit down with your brother Weichen, and I'll get you some delicious food!"

The marshal's wife angrily shoved her husband beside her, "You control your son!"

Marshal Jing then looked at his son with a solemn expression and said, "Don't cause trouble, let Xiaoyu come and sit with us."

Unable to win against his parents, Jing Weichen left the scene disappointed and sat down dejectedly.

Marshal Jing was just about to make room between himself and his wife for the little one to sit when—

Jing Weimian calmly sat down in her seat, glancing at the little guy next to her, "Who do you want to sit next to?"

Jing Xiaoyu moved closer to her seat and said hesitantly, "Xiaoyu wants to sit with you."

Jing Weimian smiled slightly and tapped her chin lightly: "Yes, sit down."

Then, the three people across the table heard Jing Weimian speak slowly and deliberately:
"I don't understand you guys, what's there to argue about?"

"..."

The three of them simultaneously cast envious and jealous glances at Jing Weimian, as if to say, "You're so aloof! You're so amazing!"

However, even though Jing Xiaoyu didn't sit with them, the Marshal and his wife, along with Jing Weichen, kept feeding the little one, as if afraid he would go hungry.

"Eat more, baby."

"That's right, that's right, the baby is growing and needs to eat well."

……

After the meal, Chen Yan came to pick up Jing Weimian. Jing Weimian still planned to take Jing Xiaoyu to the base so that she could take care of her at any time.

The marshal and his wife seemed to understand this perfectly, waving their hands in acknowledgment.

After all, Mianmian just found her child, so she must want to keep him by her side and be close to him all the time.

Jing Weimian naturally had no idea what her parents were thinking. However, seeing the two of them dressed up so elegantly before leaving the house, she couldn't help but ask them a question out of suspicion.

"Mom, where are you going?"

The marshal was bending down, smiling, and stuffing gifts into Jing Xiaoyu's pocket.

The Marshal's wife was also stroking the little one's head, solemnly promising to put the baby at ease and other inexplicable things, before finally replying to Jing Weimian with a simple, "Don't worry about it."

"?" Jing Weimian turned to look at her younger brother, even more puzzled.

Jing Weichen quickly looked away and waved his hand, indicating that he knew nothing.

Finally, seeing that the meeting at the base was about to start, Jing Weimian had no choice but to pull Jing Xiaoyu away.

Before entering the command center conference room, Jing Weimian asked Chen Yan to keep an eye on Jing Xiaoyu.

Because the meeting might last until noon, Jing Weimian reminded Chen Yan to remember to feed the baby before entering the meeting room.

Chen Yan specially took Jing Xiaoyu to his usual rest room, set the feeding time in advance according to the schedule Dr. Lu had previously given him, and even found some fairy tale picture books for Jing Xiaoyu:

"Xiaoyu, sit here and look at the picture books. If you need anything, just call out 'Uncle Chen Yan.' Uncle Chen Yan is at his desk outside!"

Jing Xiaoyu took the fairy tale picture book and nodded obediently, "Xiaoyu understands."

"Little Yu is such a good girl!"

Chen Yan then felt relieved and came out of the break room in the office.

However, what Chen Yan didn't know was that Jing Xiaoyu's true form was that of a young baby mermaid, and she couldn't freely control her transformation like an adult mermaid.

Especially when she sensed the frequency of mental distress from the outside world, and there was no comforting presence from her parents, she couldn't control the urge to turn her legs back into her little fish tail.

Jing Xiaoyu was sitting obediently on the sofa, holding a picture book and reading.

After an unknown amount of time, I suddenly sensed a frequency of mental turmoil and rioting nearby, and it was getting closer and closer.

Touching the pair of pinkish-blue fan-shaped ear fins peeking out from her fluffy short hair, Jing Xiaoyu covered her small ear fins at a loss, and felt the turbulent mental frequency intensify even more.

Jing Xiaoyu stood up from the sofa, but the next second, her shinbone buckled and she fell to the ground with a thud.

Chen Yan, who was in the outer office arranging work with his subordinates, was startled by the noise coming from the break room and quickly got up and went in.

However, when he entered the rest room, he was shocked to find that the fairy tale picture book he had given to Jing Xiaoyu not long ago had fallen under the sofa, and Jing Xiaoyu was nowhere to be found.

After searching around, Chen Yan quickly noticed the unusually broken window next to him and hurriedly went forward to peek inside.

Fortunately, the road downstairs is normal.

But what followed was an even greater sense of unease and suspicion—

How could Jing Xiaoyu disappear without warning right under his nose?
The situation was urgent, and Chen Yan, disregarding the fact that he might disturb General Jing, who was in the middle of an important meeting, rushed to the command post immediately.
Chen Yan entered the conference room, walked quickly and solemnly to the general's side, and whispered to her that Jing Xiaoyu was missing.

Upon hearing this, Jing Weimian's expression changed instantly.

She postponed the second half of the meeting and got up to leave.

"You mean, Jing Xiaoyu didn't leave your office, and there was nothing wrong outside the break room window, but Jing Xiaoyu just disappeared?"

Chen Yan followed closely behind the general, nodding guiltily, "Yes, I didn't expect it to turn out this way... If I had known, I should have..."

Jing Weimian didn't have time to listen to his unnecessary ramblings. "Seal off the base's entrances and exits, and re-examine the office building's surveillance footage."

Already the second time.

When she was injured and hospitalized in the medical department last time, Jing Xiaoyu also suddenly disappeared from the room next to hers.

At the time, she was so eager to find the little one that she overlooked the root of the problem.

How could Jing Xiaoyu, such a young human child, manage to disappear right under the adults' noses twice in a row?

And they all disappeared into thin air.

Just as Jing Weimian personally went to the office building where Jing Xiaoyu disappeared to investigate.

The base guards suddenly came to report that someone was looking for her.
