”Ruirui, Ruirui!”

Su Yunjin shouted frantically as Chen Jie hurried over.

”Wife, what’s wrong, tell me, what’s wrong!”

Chen Jie asked. Su Yunjin was beside herself with despair. When she saw Chen Jie, she froze for a moment before her tears streamed uncontrollably.

”Husband, I... I lost Ruirui!”

Su Yunjin sobbed miserably.

Chen Jie steadied her and said, ”Wife, don’t cry just yet. Tell me clearly, what happened, where did he go missing?”

Hearing this, Su Yunjin pointed to the nearby street, ”It was just now, not long ago. I, I took Ruirui to buy some food. But when I was paying, I turned around, and Ruirui was gone. I searched everywhere but couldn’t find him. Boo-hoo, husband, what am I going to do!”

”It’s okay. I’m here. Don’t cry. Ruirui won’t be gone for long!”

Chen Jie said as he arranged for Su Yunjin to sit at a tea stall before saying, ”Wait here for now; I’ll go and call for help.”

Chen Jie walked into the restaurant, where a group of people was eating meat and gulping down wine. Zhou Chu saw Chen Jie and immediately said, ”Jiu Si, you’re finally back. We’ve been waiting for you—come, have a drink.”

Chen Jie said, ”Old Zhou, we’ve got a situation!”

”Hmm?”

Hearing this, everyone turned to look at Chen Jie. Chen Jie said, ”My niece, Ruirui, is missing!”

”What!”

Upon hearing this, everyone in the restaurant stared, their eyes wide open. They all stood up and said, ”Fifth Miss is missing? Who the hell had the guts to touch someone from the Fishing Guild? Brothers, grab your weapons, let’s hit the streets and find Fifth Miss!”

With those words, everyone stood up, and in quick succession, a group of them was ready to go.

Zhou Chu said, ”Jiu Si, could it be that the child snatchers got her?”

”No way. Listen, Jiu Si, you go take our brothers and search the streets. I’ll head back to the escort agency. Shunfeng Escort Agency’s got some manpower; we’ll help ask around.”

”Thank you.”

Zhou Chu said, ”We’re family, don’t mention it.”

Then, a group of men hit the streets to start searching. But the street was so large, even after searching for half the day, they hadn’t found her. Chen Jie started to suspect that something wasn’t as simple as a child wandering off.

Just as Chen Jie was pondering, Deng Guangming rushed over hurriedly.

”Fifth Brother, what happened?”

Chen Jie said, ”Fourth Brother, my niece is missing...”

”Okay, don’t panic. I’ll gather manpower immediately to search along with you. As long as she’s on our turf, she won’t escape.”

Saying that, Deng Guangming immediately gathered all Fishing Guild members from the Big Vegetable Market—over a hundred people—to search for Ruirui’s whereabouts.

During this time, Chen Jie thought about the two young child snatchers Wu Hong had caught.

He then said to Deng Guangming, ”Fourth Brother, I’m heading to the government office.”

Deng Guangming replied, ”Reporting to the officials won’t work. The government won’t bother with this kind of stuff.”

Chen Jie said, ”I’ve got a big brother who works there as a constable, and he just caught two child snatchers. There might be some leads.”

Deng Guangming paused and looked at Chen Jie, ”Jiu Si, you know people on the government side?”

Chen Jie said, ”Yes, he’s Mr. Bai’s grandson.”

Deng Guangming said, ”Oh, then you better go find him. Don’t worry, all four streets run by White Tiger Hall are mobilized now. If there’s any sign of her, we’ll track her down as quickly as possible.”

Hearing this, Chen Jie said, ”Thank you, Fourth Brother.”

With those words, he headed straight to the government office.

Before leaving, he reassured the panicked Su Yunjin, ”Don’t worry, wife. Right now, hundreds of people from Yongchang, Peace, Tiger Head, and Big Vegetable Market are all mobilized. If anything surfaces, it’ll be reported immediately. Go home and wait; nothing will happen.”

Su Yunjin listened, though clearly shaken, and forced herself to say, ”Okay, I understand, husband. Don’t worry about me; I’m fine.”

Caught in her daze, Su Yunjin appeared utterly lost, as though her soul had left her body. Seeing this, Chen Jie signaled, and two men quickly came over.

”Fifth Master!”

”Hmm, take my wife home.”

”Understood.”

With that, the two men accompanied Su Yunjin back home.

At this moment, Chen Jie didn’t pause. Every second counted; even a minute of delay increased the risk of Ruirui being moved.

He was now almost certain that Ruirui had been taken by human traffickers.

Without hesitation, Chen Jie headed straight for the government office.

On the way, Chen Jie saw Zhou Chu rushing over and said, ”Jiu Si, rest assured. I’ve talked to my father-in-law, and now all fifty runners from Shunfeng Escort Agency are out looking. With our connections, we’ll find their trail in no time.”

Hearing this, Chen Jie said, ”Thank you.”

Zhou Chu said, ”Between brothers, let’s skip the formalities. Go handle your business; I’ll keep asking around.”

Saying that, Zhou Chu immediately led his men to ask door-to-door at shops.

Chen Jie’s eyes burned with fury. People who snatch children all deserve death.

With that thought, Chen Jie quickly arrived at the government office.

Upon arrival, he was stopped by guards who said, ”Halt. Who are you looking for?”

Chen Jie clasped his fists and replied, ”I’m Wu Hong’s brother. I’ve come to see Brother Wu.”

Hearing this, the two government officials paused before saying, ”Wait here.”

Before long, Wu Hong was summoned. Seeing Chen Jie, he looked a bit surprised—only half an hour had passed, yet Chen Jie was already here.

”What’s wrong, Jiu Si!”

Wu Hong knew, however, that if it weren’t urgent, Chen Jie wouldn’t have come running like this.

Hearing the question, Chen Jie said, ”Brother Hong, there’s trouble—Ruirui is missing!”

”What!!”

Wu Hong’s eyes widened as he heard the news. He knew Ruirui very well, not merely as an acquaintance but from familiar and friendly ties.
