Chapter 4 Where's Your Internal Library?
Zhou Jianwei stared at Tang Wan for a while, then turned around and walked out of the bathroom without saying a word. Tang Wan followed her out in a bath towel and tremblingly. Zhou Jianwei sat on the sofa and was stunned.
"Come to your dad quickly. Could it be that he was the one who picked him up Xiaohu?" Tang Wan said in fear.
Zhou Jianwei turned his head and shouted at Tang Wan: "Impossible, I just came back from him."
Tang Wan was completely confused now. Her face, which was flushed with water vapor, turned pale in an instant, and she said in a crying voice: "Oh, will something really happen? It's impossible, I think about it, who else could pick up Xiaohu?"
After saying that, he seemed to understand that there was no answer to his question, so he ran into the bathroom and picked up his cell phone and started dialing the phone. After a while, a woman's voice came from inside.
"This is the 110 alarm center, what can I do to help you."
Tang Wan was about to speak, but Zhou Jianwei rushed in and asked, "Who are you calling?"
Tang Wan said in fear: "110."
When Zhou Jianwei heard this, he grabbed Tang Wan's cell phone and said hatefully: "You are looking for death. You haven't figured out what kind of police to call. Even if Xiaohu is kidnapped, he can't call the police now."
When Tang Wan heard her husband say the word kidnapping, she couldn't help but tremble all over and said in a lost voice: "What do you mean is Xiaohu kidnapped?"
Zhou Jianwei stared at Tang Wan for a while and didn't say anything, then asked in a deep voice: "Where are your underwear?"
Tang Wan was stunned, and didn't understand what her husband meant for a moment. She didn't know why he was still interested in his underwear at this time. But then she immediately remembered the scene of looking for underwear with another man in a hotel. Her face changed and she stuttered and said in a trembling voice: "What do you mean?"
Zhou Jianwei approached Tang Wan and asked viciously: "I'll ask where your underwear is? Could it be that you went out naked, right?"
Tang Wan felt a soft chest undulating, her heart thumped wildly, her mind was dizzy, and she hummed mechanically, "Maybe...it might be thrown in the beauty salon." After saying that, she felt a dizzy moment and hurriedly held the bathroom with one hand.
"Beauty salon?" Zhou Jianwei sneered, and suddenly reached out to slap his wife hard. Tang Wan felt dizzy and could not stand firmly. She screamed and fell into the bathtub, and water splashed everywhere.
To be honest, this is the first time Tang Wan was slapped by her husband. Although she married into a wealthy family, she is not an ugly duckling in ordinary people's homes, nor is she a submissive wife.
If it were normal, she could not bear her husband slap her in the face. Maybe she would have pounced on him and fought with him. With her husband's small body, she might not be her opponent.
But today she didn't have the courage to compete with her husband. On the one hand, she felt a ghost in her heart, and on the other hand, she was full of her mind now, so she had to treat this slap as a punishment for herself. To be honest, as long as her son can come back safely, she would admit it even if she was slapped a few more times.
Tang Wan fell in the bathtub and gasped for a while, then slowly got up. The towel on her body had dispersed. She simply pulled it off and threw it on the ground. It was strange to say that she fell very hard just now, but she didn't feel the pain.
After Zhou Jianwei slapped his wife, he seemed a little timid. He sat on the sofa and panted. He had to tremble and took out a cigarette and lit it so that he could concentrate on thinking. After hesitating for a while, he finally took out his cell phone and dialed a number.
Just after calling, he put down his cell phone, and glanced at Tang Wan, walking naked from the bathroom, walked to him, bent down and stared at him and asked coldly: "Are you looking for your son now, or your underwear?"
Zhou Jianwei seemed not afraid to look at his wife's wet naked body, and he panted: "My dad will come over soon. He said, don't call the police."
Tang Wan stood there and gasped for a while, then walked over to put on her shirt and jeans, but she did not wear a bra or underwear.
Zhou Jianwei stood up, stared at Tang Wan and said coldly, "If my son has a few shorts, I can't spare you." After that, he turned around and went downstairs.
Tang Wan seemed not to hear her husband's threat, and was stunned for a while, then suddenly remembered something, hurried over and picked up her cell phone, went into the bathroom, closed the door, and quickly dialed a mobile phone number.
"You, has your daughter come home?" Tang Wan asked in a low voice.
Only a man also whispered: "I'm back, my mother went to pick him up."
He paused and asked in a low voice: "Did the nanny take your son back? Is it okay?"
Tang Wan did not answer the man's words, but gasped: "Remember it, don't contact me again. We both just think that we have never met before."
The man was silent for a while, then he said in confusion: "Wan'er, what happened? Did he find it?"
Tang Wan said sternly: "Don't ask anything, remember what I said, otherwise don't blame me for being polite."
After saying that, he hung up immediately without waiting for the man to speak, then opened the back cover of the phone, took out a mobile phone card from it, threw it into the toilet, and pressed the flush button hard. With a clamor, the mobile phone card disappeared.
Tang Wan reached out and closed the toilet lid with a snap, then she felt her legs weak, and she sat on it, covering her face with her hands and sobbing.
I don’t know how long it took, but the engines outside roared, and it seemed that a car was driving. Tang Wan hurriedly stood up, lifted the curtains and looked outside, and saw four or five cars driving into the yard. No need to guess, it must be the boss of the Zhou family who came.
There was a sound of footsteps coming from the stairs. Tang Wan hurriedly picked up a towel to wipe her face, and then walked out of the bathroom. Although four or five cars came to the yard, except for Zhou Jianwei, there were only two men and one woman who followed Zhou Jiyao upstairs.
Although Tang Wan was not familiar with the three people brought by Zhou Jiyao, they all knew each other. The older man was Zhou Jiyao's right-hand assistant, Lu Gang, the company's vice president, and another man in his thirties was Sun Qian, the security department minister, and the woman was Yu Houhong, Zhou Jiyao's personal assistant. She was about thirty years old and was considered a rare beauty. Obviously, Zhou Jiyao may not want too many people to know about his grandson's disappearance.
Zhou Jiyao is fifty-six years old this year. Not only is he tall, but he is also handsome. He may know how to keep health. Although he has worked hard in the business world for decades, he looks much younger than his actual age. To be honest, a rich and powerful man like Zhou Jiyao still has an irresistible charm to women even at his age.
"Dad, save Xiaohu, it's all my fault, it's all my fault..." Tang Wan couldn't help crying when she saw her father-in-law, as if she had seen a savior.
Zhou Jiyao did not make a sound, walked over and hugged his daughter-in-law, patted her shoulder with one hand, and comforted her: "Don't worry, Xiaohu will be fine."
Zhou Jianwei glared at his wife and scolded, "Do you still have the face to cry? He actually left such a young child alone in the mall and ran to do beauty."
Zhou Jianwei's words were exactly the same as Tang Bin complained about his daughter on the phone just now. Tang Wan felt that she was inappropriate, so she didn't argue. However, her father-in-law's comfort and guarantee made her feel much more at ease because she knew that her father-in-law had much more energy than her husband.
But unexpectedly, Zhou Jiyao waved his hand and said to his son: "Is it meaningful to blame her now? If someone targets Xiaohu and can't hide it even if he wants to. Let's talk about some practical issues now. Don't blame Wan'er anymore. Does she hope something happens to her son?"
After saying that, he took the lead in walking into Zhou Jianwei's study.
Nanny Xiao Cui brought each of them a cup of tea because Tang Wan had not had dinner yet, and thoughtfully brought her a plate of snacks. However, the hostess was anxious and had no appetite now.
After Xiao Cui went out, Zhou Jianwei closed the door of the study, and Zhou Jiyao said to his daughter-in-law: "Wan'er, it's useless to be anxious. You should calm down first and tell us about what happened today. At least you need to make a rough judgment first."
Tang Wan wiped her tears and said, "Actually, things are very simple. At noon, I took Xiaohu out for dinner, and then went to the entertainment city of Tianfu Shopping Mall to let him play with the children there.
Later, when I saw that he was having fun, I told him to go out and do something and come to pick him up later. Actually, I have done this before, but who would have thought something happened this time?"
Zhou Jianwei said angrily: "I originally thought you were playing with Xiaohu, but I didn't expect that I wanted to run out. If you don't want to take care of your children, why don't you keep him at home?"
Tang Wan defended: "He said last night that he wanted to go there today."
Zhou Jiyao's assistant Yu Houhong interrupted: "I know the entertainment city of Tianfu Shopping Mall, many parents put their children there when they go shopping there.
To be honest, my husband often lie to me on weekends, saying that he was taking his daughter to play there. He was even more overdoing it. Every time he threw his daughter there, he ran to play mahjong.
However, as far as I know, the management of the entertainment city is still very standardized. At least two or three teachers are responsible for taking care of the children. The event site is completely closed. I have gone to pick up my daughter, and the teacher usually asks me. If it is a stranger, it is unlikely that the child will be taken away."
Zhou Jiyao nodded slightly, took out a cigarette and lit it, sprayed a cloud of smoke, stared at Tang Wan and asked, "What did they say when you went to the mall to pick up the children?"
Tang Wan hesitated and said, "When I went there, the teacher and the child were all gone. There was only one staff member. I had never seen her before. She should be the manager. She couldn't say who took the child away. However, she promised that it would be impossible for a stranger to be picked up."
He paused and tentatively said, "Dad, why don't you call the police? The mall must have surveillance. As long as you call out the surveillance camera and check it out, won't you know who took Xiaohu away?"
Zhou Jiyao shook his head slowly and said, "If you can find the person who picked up Xiaohu with surveillance, then the matter will be simple. Don't call the police for the time being before you figure out the whole story. The police can only make a bad thing."
