Chapter 246 Don't worry, he wasn't kidnapped! (1/2)

Wang Qingxiu nodded and said, "Yes, he ran away secretly yesterday. And for some time now, he had been secretly telling me that he didn't want to leave Beijing and that he wanted me to stay with him, but I didn't agree. I originally thought he would leave with us, but yesterday he suddenly disappeared."

"And last night my mom and I searched for him all night, but we couldn't find him. So last night when I saw how sad and distressed my mom was, I decided that I would stay and look for my brother, and then we would go after my parents together after we found him."

"But the current situation is that I've been searching all morning and still haven't found any news about my brother."

"And logically speaking, my parents have already left. He should have come back by now, but there's still no sign of him. So I'm wondering if he's been abducted by human traffickers?"

Hearing Wang Qingxiu's words, Gu Nini comforted her, "Qingxiu, don't worry too much. Your brother should be fine. Human traffickers usually don't abduct men, they usually abduct women. So he probably wasn't abducted by human traffickers. He's probably meeting up with friends somewhere, and he might not even be awake yet. So don't worry too much, just wait a little longer."

Sure enough, after hearing Gu Nini's words, Wang Qingxiu suddenly felt less nervous, and her anxiety eased somewhat.

Indeed, his younger brother usually goes out to play until late at night before coming back, then sleeps until noon the next day.

Maybe his younger brother was out partying with his friends until late last night, so he's still sleeping now.

That's why Wang Qingxiu breathed a sigh of relief. She patted her chest and said, "Oh, Sister Nini, hearing what you said finally puts my mind at ease. You have no idea, after my parents left last night, I didn't sleep well at all. I felt inexplicably lonely, isolated, and helpless."

"This morning, I was like a headless fly, searching all over Beijing for my brother, but I couldn't find him anywhere. At that moment, I felt even more desperate."

"Then I thought of you, Sister Nini. Am I bothering you?"

As Wang Qingxiu finished speaking, she looked at Gu Nini somewhat embarrassedly.

Gu Nini smiled. Then she took Qingxiu's hand and said, "Qingxiu, what are you saying? What's the big deal? Friends are supposed to help each other, aren't they?"

"And judging from your appearance, you haven't had breakfast yet this morning, have you? Or maybe you haven't even had lunch yet?"

As soon as Gu Nini spoke, Wang Qingxiu's stomach rumbled loudly.

Wang Qingxiu immediately felt embarrassed, her cheeks turning red.

Seeing this, Gu Nini said directly to Wang Qingxiu, "Okay, Qingxiu, I'll take you out for a nice meal."

As Gu Nini finished speaking, she shouted into the house, "Mom, I'm going out for a bit. Don't wait for me for lunch."

Fang Xueqing's voice came from inside the house: "Okay."

She actually saw Wang Qingxiu outside the door. Although she didn't know why Wang Qingxiu hadn't left, she didn't go out to disturb her.

Therefore, she naturally wouldn't stop Gu Nini from going out to dinner with Wang Qingxiu, nor would she get involved, since it was a matter for the young people.

Gu Nini led Wang Qingxiu directly towards Quanjude.

When they arrived at Quanjude, they found it was packed with people. Luckily, they found a corner spot.

Wang Qingxiu hadn't expected Gu Nini to bring her to Quanjude for dinner. She said to Gu Nini, "Sister Nini, I'll pay for it later."

Gu Nini smiled and said, "Qingxiu, didn't I just say? I'll treat you. I don't need the money."

As Gu Nini finished speaking, she leaned close to Wang Qingxiu's ear and whispered, "Besides, the congratulatory gift you gave me yesterday was so valuable, it's only right that I treat you."
