Chapter 921: 907, Did you say where you are going? (2) Chapter 921: 907, Did you say where you are going? (2) Quan Jingwu frowned, his eyes lowered to the sleeping Seventeen he was holding, before he turned and walked out.
Downstairs, Granny Quan was chatting with Rhee when she saw Jingwu carrying Nineteen downstairs, and she paused slightly in surprise.
âDid Nineteen wake up?â Rhee stood up and saw the quiet Nineteen resting on his shoulder, looking at Jingwu with confusion.
Jingwu said, âIâm taking him out for a walk.â
âHmm, donât come back too late, he didnât eat much today, come back earlier for dinner,â Rhee said, understanding Jingwuâs intentions after seeing Nineteenâs subdued demeanor.
Jingwu hummed affirmatively and walked out while still holding Nineteen.
Cafe
The soft and soothing piano music quietly flowed as Jingwu entered the cafe holding Nineteen. The father and sonâs exceptional good looks immediately attracted a wave of curious glances.
The sight of Nineteenâs delicately beautiful little face especially made many girlsâ eyes sparkle with hearts, exclaiming how cute and exquisite he was.
Jingwu chose a seat by the window, ordered some small cakes, and then turned his attention to teasing Nineteen.
âNineteen, which one do you want to eat?â
Nineteen glanced at the several elegant small cakes on the table, uninterested.
âDaddy!â His little head lifted, his gorgeous purple eyes shining with hope, âMommy, I want Mommy.â
Jingwuâs thin lips pursed slightly, as he took out his phone. With the screen lit up, their family of fourâs photo became the wallpaper.
âMommy.â Nineteenâs tiny finger pointed at Jian Qing in the photo on the screen saver, and his delicate little face finally revealed a smile.
In the photo, Jian Qing leaned into Jingwuâs embrace, with one of the little treasures on each side of her, snuggled into her arms, exuding a sense of full happiness.
Jingwu looked at Jian Qingâs blooming smile in the photo, a hint of laughter tingeing his eyes.
âNineteen, do you want to find Mommy?â
Not to mention the two little ones missing her, he himself was constantly thinking of her every moment.
Nineteen nodded vigorously, âMhm.â
âThen Daddy will take you to find Mommy, okay?â
Just the thought of Jian Qingâs surprised yet helpless expression upon seeing the three of them appear out of the blue made him eager to fly to her immediately.
âOkay.â Nineteenâs bright eyes turned into crescents with his smile, looking incredibly cute.
Jingwu rubbed his forehead against his, chuckling softly, determined to fly to M Country with the two little ones tonight.
âStill want the small cakes, hmm?â
âNineteen doesnât want to eat, save for Mommy,â Nineteen said softly.
Jingwu laughed, signaling the server to come over for the bill and payment, then he left holding Nineteen.
At dinner that evening, upon hearing Jingwuâs plan to take the little treasures to M Country, everyone was momentarily stunned before they understood.
They all smiled knowingly, and Quan Mingxuan even teased, âJingwu, arenât you a bit too impatient? Jian Qing has only been gone for two or three days, do you really need to rush off to find her that quickly?â
âWhat would a single dog like you know,â Jingwu shot him a side glance and uttered coolly.
Mingxuan choked, bowing his head to eat his meal grumpily.
Iâm single, and Iâm proud!
âJingwu, when are you leaving?â Rhee asked.
âAfter the bath for Seventeen and the others,â he replied.
Granny Quan advised, âItâs chilly at night, be sure to put a thin jacket on Seventeen and the others!â
Jingwu nodded.
âDaddy, Daddy!â
The two little treasures ran into the dining hall one after another, swaying their little bodies, making everyone watch with bated breath.
Jingwu put down his chopsticks and scooped one into each arm, holding them close.
Seventeen and Nineteen sat on his legs, one on each side, their fair faces flushed with excitement and smiles.
âDaddy, for Mommy,â Seventeen lifted his chubby hand that held a piece of chocolate up for everyone to see.
âTsk tsk, they really are your own flesh and blood,â Mingxuan quipped.
Jingwu glanced at the chocolate clasped in his hand and his lips curved slightly, âOkay, weâll take it to Mommy.â
âDaddy, letâs go, letâs go,â Nineteen urged impatiently.
Watching the two little treasures eager to find Jian Qing, everyone burst into laughter, âHahaha.â
These two little darlings of their family!

Italy
âSis!â
Jian Luo sprang up from the bed, his forehead covered in a layer of cold sweat.
The person beside him woke up with a start, and Black Jack reached out to turn on the lamp beside the bed.
The orange glow added a few touches of warmth to the dim bedroom.
âWhatâs wrong, had a nightmare?â
Jian Luo clutched his chest, his complexion turning pale, âBlack Jack, I dreamed that something happened to my sister.â
Perhaps it was the special twin intuition, but every time his sister got hurt, he would feel an inexplicable sense of panic.
Clearly, Black Jack was aware of this too, and he reached out to wipe off the cold sweat from Jian Luoâs forehead, âDonât scare yourself, nothing bad can happen to Jian Qing, stop imagining things.â
âNo, I have to call my sister. Otherwise, I wonât be able to calm down.â He threw off the covers and got out of bed to look for his phone.
Black Jack frowned slightly and got up to turn on the light.
In an instant, the bedroom was brightly lit.
He walked over to Jian Luo, looking at his tense face, and patted his shoulder, âDonât rush.â
Jian Luo furrowed his brow, âCanât get through.â
âTry the manor,â Black Jack suggested.
Jian Luo nodded and hurriedly dialed the manorâs number.
The phone connected, and a servant answered.
âIs my sister at the manor?â
Recognizing Jian Luoâs voice, the servant replied respectfully, âYoung master, the young Miss went out and hasnât returned yet.â
âHow long has she been gone?â
âThe young Miss left shortly after coming back from headquarters this morning, and she has not returned since,â the servant explained.
Hearing this, Jian Luoâs eyebrows drew together tighter, his unease growing stronger.
âDid my sister say where she was going?â
The servant thought for a moment before responding, âNo, but the young Miss hurried out right after receiving a courier.â
âA courier?â Jian Luo was puzzled, âWhat courier?â
âIâm not sure, but I saw a letter and a photo. The young Miss seemed very upset after seeing them.â
âI see.â
After hanging up the phone, Jian Luo looked at Black Jack, both of their expressions turning serious.
âCall Quan Jingwu,â Black Jack said.
Jian Luo had the same thought and pressed Quan Jingwuâs mobile number.
On the other end, Quan Jingwu was helping the two little ones put on their coats and shoes when he was momentarily taken aback by Jian Luoâs call.
Pressing answer, Jian Luoâs voice came through, tinged with urgency, âQuan Jingwu, do you know where my sister went?â
At the mention of Jian Qing, Quan Jingwuâs cold gaze deepened. He passed the coat to Rhee and walked aside to take the call.
âWhat happened?â
âI canât reach my sisterâs phone. People at the manor said she rushed out after receiving a courier upon returning from headquarters this morning and hasnât been back since,â Jian Luo said.
âI understand. Iâll call her now,â Quan Jingwu said, his handsome face turning grave.
After ending the call with Jian Luo, he quickly dialed Jian Qingâs number.
âBeep beepâŠâ
One minute passed.
Two minutes passed, and still no one answered. Quan Jingwuâs heart tightened, and without hesitation, he hung up and headed toward the door.
âJingwu, where are you going?â Rhee finished dressing the two little treasures and saw Quan Jingwu rapidly walking towards the door, asking in confusion.
