Chapter 29: 15.2

Chapter 15: Use Gentle Methods and Force (2) Original translation is from tenderflower's blog.

The town was 7 or 8 miles away from the village where he met Shu Lan, and there were more than 10 courtyard guards in his own house. This kid could come in quietly. He had real skills. He didn't know what his relationship with the little girl was.

Xiao Lang looked at Cheng Qingran coldly and asked back, “Who are you? Why did you secretly take Ah Lan away?” This man was too scheming. He pretended to be gentle and deceived the lazy girl. In the end, still didn’t want to show off his beastly desire!

Cheng Qingran gave a wry smile. Although he had a clear conscience, he couldn’t explain this matter clearly. The Shu family would come over after a while and he would explain later. As for whether they believed it or not, Cheng Qingran didn’t really care. After all, he was afraid the two sides would have no chance to meet again.

“I’ve already sent someone to invite her parents, come with me to the living room and wait.” Cheng Qingran rubbed his swollen head and thought this was the lesson of his reckless behavior.

Hearing her parents were coming, Shu Lan was a little nervous. She was afraid her mother would beat her and that her mother would not recognize her. She was full of thoughts and wanted to say something. When she looked up, she found that Cheng Qingran had already gone far away, and there was only a wolf with obscure eyes beside her.

“Big brother, wait for me, I want...”

Before she could finish speaking, Xiao Lang blocked her mouth, “Be honest with me, next time you dare to sneak away without a word, see how I deal with you!”

Xiao Lang tapped Shu Lan’s forehead vigorously, dragged her, and followed Cheng Qingran from behind. They were under the eaves. No matter whether what the other party said was true or not, he had no choice but to take one step at a time.

Shu Lan unwillingly threw his arm, but being glared at by Xiao Lang, she was honest.

……

Shu Maoting and his wife did not dare to publicize the matter of Shu Lan’s disappearance. Although they have always treated Shu Lan as a child, their daughter was 10 years old after all. Before they could determine whether their daughter was kidnapped by human traffickers, they could only ask Xiao Shouwang to help them look for her together, but they didn’t find Shu Lan until dark, so they panicked completely.

Qin-shi and Shu Wan had puffy eyes from crying and even Shu Maoting’s eyes were a little red.

Xiao Shouwang saw the family was in distress, thinking of his son who went searching and never returned, he couldn’t help sighing: “Don’t worry too much, Ah Lang has played with Ah Lan since he was a child, maybe he has already found her and was persuading her somewhere!”

“No, Ah Lang is so sensible. If he really found her, he would have brought Ah Lan home long ago. It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have used those words to lie to her...” Qin-shi leaned on the top of the heated-brick bed, and the handkerchief covering her face in her hands was soaked with tears long ago and soaked thoroughly.

Shu Maoting didn’t have the energy to persuade his wife anymore. He thought about the places his daughter usually went to over and over again. Suddenly his heart moved, “My child mother, do you think Ah Lan will run to her grandmother’s house?”

Qin-shi suddenly raised her head, her eyes were full of hope, but they dimmed in an instant: “She is so young, even if she wants to go, she doesn’t know the way!”

However, Shu Maoting stood up, tidied up his clothes, and said to Qin-shi, “No, I have to go to the town to see. If Ah Lan is not there, we can’t keep worrying in vain. It’s right to report to the officials.” Even if the child’s reputation would be bad, it was better than being kidnapped by traffickers and never seeing each other again.

“You’re right, I’ll go with you too. I can’t stand waiting at home all the time.” Qin-shi wiped her eyes, got up, and said.

Shu Wan, who was next to her, immediately held Qin-shi’s hand tightly, “Mother, I’ll go too.”

Shu Maoting thought for a while. He didn’t feel relieved to leave Shu Wan at home alone, so he looked at Xiao Shouwang.

“Okay, you all go, I’ll watch here for you so that when Ah Lan comes back she can find someone.” Xiao Shouwang said.

Shu Maoting cupped his hands to him and led his wife and daughter away. The village head had an ox cart at home, so he had to think of a reason to borrow it.

Unexpectedly, as soon as their ox cart stopped at the door of Qin’s house, they saw father Qin, Qin Ruhai, leading his two sons out, accompanied by a strange servant.

Seeing his daughter and son-in-law, Qin Ruhai’s thick black eyebrows instantly twisted into an upside-down shape and reprimanded Qin-shi in a low voice: “What kind of mother are you and forced Ah Lan to run away from home! Fortunately, she met Master Cheng. He kindly took her back and also sent someone to inform me. Otherwise, if she encounters the black-hearted beggar and kidnaps Ah Lan silently, you just wait to die of regret!”

Hearing the news of her daughter, Qin-shi was overwhelmed with surprise. She didn’t care about her father’s reprimand. If Shu Maoting hadn’t stopped her quickly, she would have grabbed Wei Da’s hand: “Really? Ah Lan is at your house?”

When Wei Da saw Qin-shi’s eyes were red and puffy, his heart was very sympathetic, so he quickly said: “Yes, when my master met the young lady, she was crying by the roadside and said that her mother didn’t want her anymore, so my master couldn’t bear to leave her alone fearing that something might happen to her, so he brought her back to the residence first. He wanted to inquire about the young lady’s parents, but she insisted. Later, a little brother came in and we found out the details of your house.”

“It must be Ah Lang, take me there quickly!” Qin-shi muttered to herself, and then urged excitedly.

Wei Da responded and asked a few of them to get into the spacious carriage of the Cheng family.
