After returning home with the child, her ex-husband knelt down and gently coaxed her.

After ending the call with Liang Xu, Lu Xiyan immediately dialed An Ning's number.

My fingers tightened suddenly as I gripped the phone.

I can't get through to Anning by phone.

The vehicle quickly stopped at the entrance of the amusement park. Before the driver could open the door, Lu Xiyan quickly got out of the car and headed straight for the amusement park.

This amusement park is built indoors, and it's quite large, with six floors and many rides and attractions, attracting a lot of visitors.

Even though it's lunchtime and some people have taken their children out to eat, the amusement park is still quite crowded.

Finding someone under such circumstances is extremely time-consuming and laborious.

The receptionist was a young girl who was stunned when she saw a handsome and tall man walk in. He had a great appearance and a great physique.

Just then, the man looked over and their eyes met.

The little girl blushed and stammered, "Y-hello."

Without saying a word, Lu Xiyan took out a few red bills from his wallet and placed them on her desk.

"Hello, I'd like to view the security footage."

Before the little girl could react, she had just said "Oh" when the computer screen in front of her was turned around.

Lu Xiyan bent over, propping himself up on the table, and rapidly clicked the screen with the mouse in one hand.

To ensure the safety of children, the amusement park has surveillance cameras on every floor and in every corner.

Lu Xiyan clicked the mouse, flipping through the real-time monitoring footage floor by floor, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper.

An Ning and An Xuan were nowhere to be seen!

He quickly took out his phone, tapped a few times, and showed it to the receptionist.

"Hello, this is my wife and son. They arrived around 10 a.m. Have you seen them before?"

He added, "A nanny also accompanied them."

The store has a rule against disclosing customers' contact information, to prevent criminals from taking advantage of the situation.

But the man in front of him was handsome, polite and gentlemanly, and his tone was gentle but tinged with worry.

People like that always make you want to help them.

The receptionist glanced at his phone instinctively; it was a photo.

The photo shows a woman and a child making origami windmills in a large garden.

The woman, dressed in a beige long dress, squatted on the ground, holding colored paper in her hand. The sunlight shone down, making her look exceptionally beautiful.

Even just a side profile is enough to make someone instantly captivated.

The little girl recognized them at a glance. "I've seen them before."

Beautiful people are always unforgettable, let alone those who are so beautiful that they seem to be on a completely different level from everyone else around them.

The young woman was fair-skinned, slim, and beautiful. She was wearing a light blue dress and brought in a little boy who looked like a child model. The receptionist stared at them for a long time, unable to look away.

Accompanying them was a middle-aged woman.

The receptionist initially thought it was a mother with her son and daughter, but after hearing the child call out "Mom," she realized that the pretty young lady was actually his mother.

The pretty young lady spoke gently with a slight smile, and the air around her smelled wonderful, making everyone who talked to her feel great.

She inquired about some activities, paid the fee, and then took the children inside to play.

The little girl had a particularly deep impression of her, "but they're gone."

"Gone?"

Lu Xiyan hurriedly asked, "Do you remember when you left?"

"Just twenty minutes before you arrived." The young woman turned the computer around to check the surveillance footage. "This young lady answered a phone call and walked away while she was on the phone. She hadn't used all the money she paid, and I was about to give it back to her when she waved her hand, said thank you, and quickly left."

The surveillance footage showed footage from twenty minutes earlier.

The time on the screen ticked away second by second.

Two minutes later, a familiar figure came downstairs, talking on the phone as he hurried toward the door.

The nanny followed behind with the little boy, then stopped at the doorway and exchanged a few words.

When the surveillance camera moved to the main entrance, Lu Xiyan's eyes, which were fixed on the screen, suddenly sharpened.

In the surveillance footage, Anning spoke a few words to the nanny before crossing the road alone.

A black car was already parked across the street. Anning opened the car door, got in, and the car drove away.

The distance to the vehicle was too far, and the car was driving away too fast, so the license plate number could not be identified from the surveillance footage.

Lu Xiyan rewound the surveillance footage to two seconds before An Ning got into the car.

Press pause.

Then zoom in on the image, and zoom in again.

The driver's side window of the black car was half open, revealing half of his face.

Judging from the silhouette, it's a woman.

It's not Cheng Wanwan.

Suddenly, Lu Xiyan stared intently at the screen, a chill running through him.

Cao Han!!!

In an instant, Lu Xiyan's chest heaved violently, and his cold gaze was like an icy spike.

Cao Han took Anning away!

What exactly is she trying to do?!

As Lu Xiyan strode out the door, the driver came over and said, "Second Young Master, Butler Li said that Young Master Sun has gone home, but Young Madam hasn't."

Lu Xiyan was feeling annoyed when his phone suddenly rang again.

"Mr. Lu, hello, I'm Li Jun."

Lu Xiyan paused, "Officer Li?"

"Here's the thing, we have preliminary findings regarding Miss An's mother's car accident. We tried calling Miss An just now but she didn't answer, so I had to call you instead."

On the other end of the phone was Officer Li Jun, who was in charge of investigating Li Chunfang's car accident. He said in a serious tone, "Based on our vehicle inspection and investigation results, we have preliminarily determined that this was a premeditated murder car accident, and the suspect has been identified as a maid in the household of Cheng Shao, chairman of the Cheng Group—"

Before the other person could finish speaking, Lu Xiyan blurted out, "Cao Han!"

"That's right!" Li Jun hurriedly said, "Our police will immediately arrest the suspect and interrogate him—"

"Officer Li!" Lu Xiyan stood by the roadside and abruptly interrupted the other person.

He felt cold all over, and his breathing was heavy. "My wife, Anning, has been taken away by Cao Han! I suspect she might harm her. I can't reach her by phone. Please track her phone location immediately!"

The other person raised their voice, "The suspect, Cao Han, took Miss An away?"

"Yes! It's very likely a kidnapping!"

Cao Han deliberately ran over and killed Li Chunfang, that An Ning...

Lu Xiyan's pupils constricted sharply. "Cao Han has a huge secret. I suspect she's planning to kill someone to silence them!"

The phrase "murder to silence" startled Li Jun, who quickly replied, "Received."

Lu Xiyan hung up the phone, quickly opened the car door, and was about to get in when he looked up and saw the road ahead was congested with traffic. It was a traffic jam.

He looked around and his gaze settled on a motorcycle a dozen meters away.

Without saying a word, he started the car and drove over.

The motorcycle owner was temporarily parked on the side of the road making a phone call when a high-end custom-made Maybach drove up and stopped at his feet.

Lu Xiyan slammed the car door shut and got out, quickly tossing the car keys in his hand to the other person.

"Let's get a different car!"

The motorcyclist instinctively took it, and was then pulled off the motorcycle. Before he could react, the man took a stride, twisted the throttle, and sped away, weaving through traffic at high speed.

The whole process took less than ten seconds, quick and efficient.

The motorcyclist stood bewildered on the roadside, staring at the car keys in his hand, then at the gleaming luxury car parked beside him. "Holy crap! What's going on?!"
