"How dare you say that? You, as the older brother, were just sitting as a model for your sister for a short while, and you couldn't even last that long?"

Upon hearing Yang Shu's words, Li Dawei scoffed.

"If you're so capable, come here and stay perfectly still for a while. Can you handle that?"

Not long after, Jiajia finally stopped writing.

"Okay, you can move now,"

As soon as Jiajia finished speaking, Li Dawei completely collapsed.

"Finished drawing? Let me see my dashing figure, I need to admire myself properly!"

Jiajia said with a smile,

"No,"

Li Dawei strode forward, trying to snatch Jiajia's sketchbook, but Jiajia refused and ran away.

Li Dawei and Jiajia were playing a chase scene in the room. Wu Mingcheng immediately knew that Jiajia was definitely teasing Li Dawei with the painting.

At this moment, Jiajia tossed the sketchbook to Xia Jie, who couldn't help but burst into laughter after looking at it.

Jiajia screamed,

"Sister, does my drawing look like her?"

Xia Jie's eyes widened in laughter.

"So alike, so incredibly alike,"

Then, she handed the painting to Wu Mingcheng, Yang Shu, Zhao Jiwei, and the others.

After seeing Jiajia's drawing, everyone burst into laughter.

"Hahahahahahaha,"

Li Dawei snatched the sketchbook from Zhao Jiwei's hand, and there, an extremely exaggerated and hilarious image of a husky leaped off the page.

He was so angry he gritted his teeth and pointed at Jiajia, saying...

"You little brat, just wait and see how I deal with you!"

After Jiajia sat down next to Wu Mingcheng, she immediately made a face at him.

"Hehe ...

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Li Dawei had no choice but to open the door first, while simultaneously making a fierce face at Jiajia.

"Jiajia, you wait, I'll deal with you later."

He opened the door and was surprised to see Jiajia's mother, Shangzhen, and stepfather, Mr. Yu, standing there.

Li Dawei was also taken aback when he saw the two of them.

"Why are you here? Jiajia, didn't you tell your mom?"

Upon hearing that Jiajia's mother and stepfather had arrived, Wu Mingcheng and the others all stood up.

At that moment, Jiajia hid behind Wu Mingcheng.

"Mom, didn't you promise me you'd sleep with Sister Xia Jie tonight?"

Before Shangzhen could speak, Mr. Yu interjected.

"Jiajia, this place is so small, how can you sleep well? Your mother and I are worried about you."

Upon hearing Mr. Yu's words, Wu Mingcheng looked at him strangely. Why was this stepfather so concerned about Jiajia? This made Wu Mingcheng somewhat suspicious.

Li Dawei was somewhat displeased upon hearing this.

"Mr. Yu, I must refute that. Our place is indeed small and cannot compare to your villa."

But Jiajia had a lot of fun with us here, and we got along very well.

Besides, she's already eighteen years old, so she has the right to decide where she'll stay tonight, right?

Aunt Shang, do you think what I said makes sense? Does it mean she can't stay with us?

Shangzhen looked at Mr. Yu with a troubled expression, but only received a cold look in return.

This scene was witnessed by Wu Mingcheng, who had been watching closely. This made Wu Mingcheng even more aware that something was amiss with this Mr. Yu.

At this moment, he noticed that as soon as Mr. Yu entered, Jiajia hid behind him, her body trembling slightly.

He became even more certain that he couldn't let Jiajia go back with them.

At this moment, Shangzhen said helplessly,

"Jiajia, why don't you come back with Mom? I'm a little worried about you being away from home."

Chapter 500 Jiajia Has a Nightmare

Wu Mingcheng gave Xia Jie a look, and Xia Jie understood, but was somewhat puzzled.

But she still took two steps forward and said,

“Aunt Shang, I’m Xia Jie. Do you remember me? Jiajia used to play with me a lot when she was little. Don’t worry, I will take good care of her.”

Wu Mingcheng also spoke up.

"Yes, Aunt Shang, we are all police officers. Being with the police is the safest thing in the world. Is there anything you're worried about?"

Shangzhen looked at Mr. Yu with a troubled expression.

"this………………………………………………"

Wu Mingcheng then looked at Mr. Yu, staring intently at him.

"What? Mr. Yu, are you worried about us? Should I call Jiajia's father and ask for his opinion?"

I believe Jiajia's father can decide this matter.

Under Wu Mingcheng's gaze, Mr. Yu felt a subtle sense of oppression.

Hearing Wu Mingcheng's words, he forced a smile and said,

"Of course not. Jiajia, be a good girl and don't cause trouble for your older brothers and sisters, okay?"

Jiajia seemed reluctant to communicate with this Mr. Yu, hiding behind Wu Mingcheng and nodding as she spoke.

"understood,"

Li Dawei saw Shangzhen and Mr. Yu to the door. Wu Mingcheng watched Mr. Yu's retreating figure thoughtfully.

Xia Jie looked at Wu Mingcheng with a puzzled expression, wondering why he had given her a look earlier and prevented Jiajia from going home with her mother.

Afterwards, the group chatted and laughed for a while longer. Wu Mingcheng could clearly sense that Jiajia was somewhat sullen and not in high spirits after seeing Mr. Yu.

Li Dawei, who was quite familiar with the matter, also sensed this phenomenon and looked at Wu Mingcheng, who shook his head slightly at him.

It was getting late, so Xia Jie took Jiajia back to rest, while Wu Mingcheng stayed behind, saying he had work to discuss.

After Jiajia left, Li Dawei and Wu Mingcheng went to Li Dawei's bedroom and locked the door.

This puzzled Yang Shu and Zhao Jiwei. The more easygoing Zhao Jiwei touched his forehead and said, puzzled,

"What are they discussing? Why are they being so secretive?"

Poplar trees are quite sensitive; they sensed something was amiss.

"Alright, let's rest. Don't worry about it. They'll let us know if they need our help."

As soon as Li Dawei entered the bedroom, he spoke.

"Mingcheng, did you notice? Jiajia seemed a bit distracted after her mother and the others left."

Li Dawei only saw some superficial things, while Wu Mingcheng's observations were naturally more in-depth and detailed than Li Dawei's.

Wu Mingcheng shook his head and said,

"You only saw Jiajia's reaction. Didn't you notice when they arrived?"

It seems Mr. Yu is more anxious about Jiajia not coming home? He seems even more nervous than Jiajia's mother.

After Wu Mingcheng said that, Li Dawei gradually realized what was going on.

"Yes, Mingcheng, so you mean......"

Wu Mingcheng thought for a moment, then said,

"I think we should talk to Uncle Chen and ask him to let Jiajia stay with us for now."

Anyway, she has a place to stay, which will keep her from running around. We can slowly find out what happened to Jiajia.

Li Dawei nodded.

"Well, that's the only way then,"

As night deepened, everyone drifted off to sleep.

Xia Jie was awakened from her sleep by a crying sound. She groggily opened her eyes.

She then realized that it was Jiajia, who was lying next to her, who was sobbing softly.

A nervous Xia Jie quickly stood up and asked with concern,
