296 My Aunt

Two minutes later, Ji Wen put on a cotton-padded jacket over his pajamas and drove Fang Xiaonuan out to look for Liu Siyu.

On the way, Fang Xiaonuan told Ji Wen everything that had happened recently.

Ji Wen’s face was filled with disbelief. “This is too magical. I must be dreaming!” With that, he held the steering wheel with one hand and pinched his thigh with the other. “F*ck! It really f*cking hurts!” He was not dreaming!

Fang Xiaonuan took out her phone and looked at the map, zooming in and out. She looked at the map of Jing City, trying to guess where Liu Siyu might have gone.

The police were also looking for records of Liu Siyu’s activity, but if she wanted to be alone, she would avoid anything her brother could use to track her.

“Fang Xiaonuan, say it again. Is Liu Siyu really my biological aunt who has been missing for fifteen years?” Ji Wen asked weakly.

“Mm, yes!” Fang Xiaonuan replied.

Ji Wen gradually lost control. He slammed the steering wheel hard. “This must be fake!” He only had two best friends for so many years, but in the end, they both were his aunts! How could such a coincidence occur?

“It’s true. I used your hair for the DNA test,” Fang Xiaonuan replied.

“When did you steal my hair?” Ji Wen roared.

Fang Xiaonuan replied, “When you were hospitalized. Ugh, let’s not dwell on these meaningless things now. The most important thing is to find Xiaoyu as soon as possible. She’ll be finished if she runs into the wrong crowd right now!”

Ji Wen also stepped on the accelerator and followed Fang Xiaonuan’s directions.

Every time they arrived at a place, Fang Xiaonuan would remind Ji Wen, “Stay in the car and don’t move. I’ll go take a look.”

After saying that, she turned on the flashlight function on her phone and walked into the dark alley.

“Why don’t I go with you?” Ji Wen asked.

“You better stay in the car obediently,” Fang Xiaonuan said. “I don’t want to have to take the time to protect you if we’re really in danger!”

Ji Wen wanted to refute her, but what she said made sense. With his skills, he would only cause trouble for her if something really happened.

Five minutes later, Fang Xiaonuan returned. “No, let’s go to the next place.”

Ji Wen continued to drive, while Fang Xiaonuan was responsible for getting out of the car to look for her. She was skilled in martial arts, so she did not have to worry. Just like that, the two of them searched Jing City for a whole hour.

Only then did Fang Xiaonuan realize how difficult it was to find someone who was intent on remaining hidden.

“Xiaoyu’s sense of self-preservation is still very strong. She will not put herself in danger,” Ji Wen said to Fang Xiaonuan.

Of course, Fang Xiaonuan knew that. “But I don’t want to pass up dangerous places. What if Xiaoyu is really there and we just happen to miss her?” she said.

Ji Wen knew what Fang Xiaonuan meant, so he did not say anything more and continued to play the role of a good driver.

On the way, Ji Lingchen called. “Xiaonuan, one of the surveillance cameras caught Xiaoyu walking in the direction of Fengyang District.”

Fengyang District? Fengyang Lake!

“I know where she is!” Fang Xiaonuan suddenly recalled a place that Liu Siyu had often mentioned to her. “Xiaowen, drive to Fengyang Lake!”

Ji Wen also thought of something. He immediately turned around and headed toward Fengyang District.

Fengyang District was originally a county under Jing City, but after the city expanded, it became a district of Jing city. Liu Siyu had once seen the school’s brochure and said that the scenery there was not bad. She really wanted to go and see it. It was clearly in Jing City, but the three of them had never been there.

Now, she might have gone alone.

Ji Wen followed the navigation instructions as he drove. In the end, he drove through a small country road and finally arrived at Fengyang Lake.

Fang Xiaonuan alighted from the car with her phone and shone it around her, shouting, “Xiaoyu!”

“Xiaoyu!” Ji Wen also shouted.

Their shouts woke up the fish in the lake and the worms in the grass, but they did not get any response.

Fang Xiaonuan followed her instincts and walked along the lakeside, shouting as she walked, “Xiaoyu, where are you?”

Ji Wen took out his phone and shone it around to see if Liu Siyu was in the tall grass.

It was late and no one was here. By the lake, just the two of them were there shouting “Xiaoyu!”

The ground around the lake was soaked. As the two walked along the lakeside, the wet and sticky mud stuck to their shoes, and they could no longer move.

Fang Xiaonuan found a large rock and sat on it. She casually wiped the mud off the soles of her shoes with a leaf and continued walking.

The surface of the lake was very calm. After walking for a long time, they suddenly heard a response. “I’m here.”

Fang Xiaonuan and Ji Wen looked at each other. That voice was Liu Siyu’s!

The two of them were overjoyed and quickly went forward.
