The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind novel Chapter 447

Chapter 447 -446 Epilogue (6)

After a while, Yu Xiao finally let out a sigh, almost laughing, “That woman is quite formidable.”

Shiyi was baffled by his abrupt remark.

They had been following the trail of tire tracks, but eventually lost it.

Due to the increasing rain, it was washing away the traces on the road.

Lu Qingyan, frustrated, punched a tree trunk on the roadside as Ye Yuan quickly held an umbrella over his head, his tone anxious, “President Lu, it’s dark now, and the rain is so heavy. Let’s find a place to take shelter. Your wife must be alright.”

He could only reassure Lu Qingyan; otherwise, even the toughest man would break down.

Lu Qingyan carefully placed the peace charm inside his clothes to keep it from getting wet.

He looked up at the mountain road; Jiang Nanshu might have been taken up there. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

She was pregnant, and the kidnapper surely wouldn’t kindly carry her up. What if the road was very long? The road seemed extensive and endless; he couldn’t see the end of it.

Would the kidnappers give her an umbrella?

What if she was still getting drenched?

What if she fell ill?

His Nanshu disliked taking medicine.

Thinking this, Lu Qingyan, holding the umbrella, began to walk up the mountain path.

He strode up without a second thought.

“President Lu!” Ye Yuan stood, agitated, and quickly opened an umbrella for himself.

But with the current intensity of the rain, an umbrella was no solution; their pants were still getting soaked by the sideways rain.

Yu Xiao heard the commotion and stepped out of a makeshift shelter.

“Lu Qingyan, have you lost your mind? It’s so dark and the rain is heavy, how can you go look for them? What if there’s a landslide? Do you not care about your life?” Yu Xiao yelled at Lu Qingyan’s retreating figure.

Lu Qingyan, holding the umbrella, looked towards the path lit by his flashlight, “My Nanshu is waiting for me. I have to find her.”

Yu Xiao thought Lu Qingyan would be calm during crucial times, but he was just reckless.

He couldn’t wait.

He had no choice but to call people to follow him up the mountain.

He still needed to rely on him to find his sister!

…

At this moment, Jiang Nanshu was indeed walking on this mountain.

The mountain road was muddy.

Yu Zhuyin, with her cuffed hands, forcefully pulled her along. The slanting rain soaked her clothes, and the handcuffs chafed her wrists until they bled. She muttered, “Don’t miscarry now; if the child is gone, your husband will never be okay with me.”

Jiang Nanshu, carrying Youyou, was gradually losing strength and couldn’t help but laugh when she heard Yu Zhuyin’s words.

Even at this moment, she was still concerned about him.

Jiang Nanshu responded, “In your next life, you won’t have a chance either.”

Yu Zhuyin choked up, “Is it necessary to hurt me like this?”

Jiang Nanshu felt a pain in her abdomen. She looked down to see rain mixed with her blood dripping onto the muddy ground.

Yu Zhuyin also noticed her condition, her eyes widening in alarm, “Everybody stop, she’s losing the child.”

The two people walking behind Jiang Nanshu tensed up. Lao Wu, who was ahead, turned around; he too was soaked, and was extremely agitated at that moment since this broken road required climbing.

They had planned to go up the mountain tomorrow, but Lu Qingyan moved so quickly.

Just a few hours later, he had found their location.

It was very likely that they were also ascending the mountain. If they let them take the person away from here, their whole deal would be jeopardized.

Lao Wu cursed under his breath, “Bad luck.”

Someone took Youyou, and Lao Wu worriedly looked at Jiang Nanshu’s pale face.

Lao Wu looked towards Boss Wei.

Seeing that the rain had lessened, Boss Wei nodded, “Since she’s willing to carry her, let her. But if you carry, you can’t be slow, or else I will have to take my measures.”

Yu Zhuyin chuckled, too lazy to reason with these people. Once the handcuffs were unlocked, she grabbed Jiang Nanshu’s hand, “I’ll carry you. You can’t even walk in your current state.”

Jiang Nanshu hung her head low; she actually thought the child wouldn’t survive.

It would be a lie to say her heart wasn’t aching.

The baby had been with her for nearly six months.

From initial resistance to current anticipation, they were supposed to meet in just a few more months.

She took a deep breath, “No need, I…”

“Stop the nonsense; get on,” Yu Zhuyin didn’t give Jiang Nanshu time to refuse.

She lifted her abruptly, arching her back to avoid touching her belly, “You’re a bit heavy.”

Yu Zhuyin couldn’t help but quip.

Jiang Nanshu remained silent.

“Move faster, or you know what will happen.”

Yu Zhuyin gritted her teeth and continued forward, carrying Jiang Nanshu.

Her voice very low, “I’m sorry, Jiang Nanshu.”

“What?” Jiang Nanshu was slightly stunned.

“Nothing, I’m just saying I was too naive. This trip out has really made me grow up a lot. My brother used to protect me too well. Let me tell you a secret; in Miannan, hardly any infants are born.”

Jiang Nanshu, lying on her back, asked in a soft voice, “Why?”

Yu Zhuyin breathed lightly, “Because even if they are born, they don’t live long. That place doesn’t keep those who can’t fend for themselves.”

She paused for a moment, her voice very faint, “So I hope, that your child is born safe and sound.”
