Chapter 1237 -1238: Miao Qingyuan Is in Trouble Again

Song Xiaodong got Miao Qingyuan’s itinerary, first roughly confirmed Miao Qingyuan’s location, and then made arrangements.

Miao Qingyuan went to a small African country, but it’s considered relatively safe, with no war and decent public security. In Africa, it’s fairly prosperous.

However, the country is still small, and when a company as powerful as Miao Qingyuan’s comes to negotiate cooperation, the country pays significant attention, so tracking Miao Qingyuan’s whereabouts isn’t too difficult.

The Dragon Thorn Troop has had people in Africa for real battle training all year round, but they’re mostly in war-torn areas. In such a peaceful country, they’re not present, but they can still investigate.

After arrangements, Song Xiaodong had to wait for news, since the Dragon Thorn Troop can’t be too ostentatious in their actions, and they need to check another country’s situation.

After arrangements, Song Xiaodong said to Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan, “There shouldn’t be any issues; that country is fairly safe.”

Miao Qingqing said, “I also know I overthink, so don’t worry, hubby.”

Song Xiaodong held their waists and said, “I’ll keep following the updates. Once there’s news, I’ll let you know immediately.”

Miao Xuanxuan and Miao Qingqing both nodded. They felt like they were overly concerned about this matter.

The next day, Song Xiaodong received news from over there, and upon seeing it, he frowned.

After Miao Qingyuan arrived in that country, everything was normal for the first few days, but the day before yesterday, he suddenly disappeared.

And furthermore, he disappeared right in his hotel.

The first night, he stayed in the hotel, but the next day, the attendants found he didn’t get up as usual, waited for a while before entering his room, only to find Miao Qingyuan was no longer inside.

Everything in the room was normal; no valuables were missing. Miao Qingyuan only took his phone.

The attendants didn’t think too much then and assumed Miao Qingyuan went downstairs for a casual walk.

But after two hours with no return and unable to reach him by phone, the attendants started to panic.

They urgently contacted the local host, who also took it seriously and began investigating, eventually finding Miao Qingyuan’s whereabouts through some cameras.

He left with a woman in a long dress, got in a car, and finally exited the suburbs.

Moreover, Miao Qingyuan was visibly close with the woman, chatting and laughing on the road, showing no signs of being coerced.

This was also why the attendants hadn’t contacted Miao Qingqing and the others, thinking Miao Qingyuan went out for flirtation. Such matters are awkward to tell Miao Qingyuan’s daughter.

Initially, the situation seemed normal—an adult man goes out for a fling, turns off his phone to avoid disturbance, which was understandable.

But Song Xiaodong didn’t see it that way. Knowing Miao Qingyuan well, he’s very committed. For Miao Qingqing’s mother, he plotted for years to finally bring his wife out of the Su Family.

Also, despite being separated from his wife for so long, he didn’t seek other women. Now that he’s found his wife again, how could he so easily go after another woman?

Even if Miao Qingyuan did go out to flirt, he wouldn’t be out of contact for two days. At least he should inform his subordinates to continue their work, not leave everything unattended.

Therefore, Song Xiaodong was quite sure there was a problem here, either Miao Qingyuan had something secret to do, or he was kidnapped.

Song Xiaodong leaned towards the latter. If Miao Qingyuan were doing something secretive, having people search for him would mean his activities weren’t secretive anymore.

Miao Qingyuan, being so shrewd, couldn’t possibly act so openly.

“Hubby, what’s wrong?” Miao Qingqing came up beside Song Xiaodong.

Miao Qingyuan turned to look at Miao Qingqing, hesitated briefly, and said, “Qingqing, I feel… Uncle Miao might be in trouble.”

Saying it was cruel, but Song Xiaodong decided to go there. Suddenly heading over, how could Miao Qingqing not guess? Instead of hiding, it was better to tell her upfront.

“Ah?” Miao Qingqing suddenly trembled and grabbed Song Xiaodong’s thigh tightly.

Song Xiaodong embraced Miao Qingqing and said, “But I feel Uncle Miao should not be in immediate danger, so you shouldn’t worry about that.”

“Really?” Miao Qingqing’s eyes turned red.

“I guarantee it.” Song Xiaodong nodded heavily and said, “But now, not knowing their purpose, sending others makes me uneasy. He’s your and Xuanxuan’s father, which makes him my father-in-law. I must handle this personally.”

“Then I’ll go with you.” Miao Qingqing said immediately.

Song Xiaodong shook his head, saying, “No need. If you go, I’d need to take care of your emotions, distracting me from the task. It’s better you wait at home; surely you trust me?”

Miao Qingqing looked at Song Xiaodong. Song Xiaodong nodded firmly and said, “Trust me!”

Miao Qingqing bit her lip, took a deep breath, and said, “Hubby, I’ll leave it to you.”

Song Xiaodong leaned down and kissed Miao Qingqing’s face lightly, saying, “Absolutely no problem, I’ll certainly bring uncle home safely.” Then he stood up and walked out to Su Yuya, saying, “Aunt, book me a ticket, the sooner the better.”

Su Yuya asked for the address and while booking, said, “Did something happen? Qingqing doesn’t look right.”

Song Xiaodong said, “Something happened with Uncle Miao, I’ll take Dragon Nine over.”

Su Yuya immediately looked up and said nervously, “Brother-in-law’s in trouble? It’s not dangerous, is it?”

Song Xiaodong said, “There shouldn’t be any trouble.”

Su Yuya hesitated and said, “Should I go too? There’s some logistics I can help you with.”

Song Xiaodong thought for a moment and said, “Okay, Aunt, come with me.”

This time going, surely there’s interaction with local officials. Song Xiaodong doesn’t like handling such matters, neither does Dragon Nine. Su Yuya is undoubtedly capable in this area; her presence will be quite helpful.

Su Yuya booked the next available ticket, which was in four hours, so they had to leave immediately.

“Hubby!” Miao Qingqing grabbed Song Xiaodong’s hand.

“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely bring uncle back.” Song Xiaodong hugged Miao Qingqing, giving her reassuring confidence.
