Addiction sets in at night; even the abstinent older man has fallen for it.

Qin family.

Qin Dongyang was still in the study.

There are tatami mats in the study where you can rest.

He was afraid that if he opened the door and went out, his wife would start nagging him endlessly.

I don't know how to face my wife.

Actually, I was already very shaken.

There's a kind of avoidance mentality.

I was in a bad mood and couldn't sleep, so I picked up a book and kept reading, but I just couldn't concentrate.

After taking a bath, Xia Guiying lay down on the bed, half asleep, still worried about Qin Dongyang, and dared not relax and fall into a deep sleep.

Having exhausted all other options, she got up, put on her coat, and went to the study to knock on the door.

Afraid of waking her father-in-law and making him worry, she lowered her voice and asked, "Dongyang, are you coming out or not? Are you going to lock yourself in there for the rest of your life?"

no respond.

She had no choice but to resort to a drastic measure: "Qin Dongyang, you're not going to say anything, are you? Then I'll just stay here with you."

Qin Dongyang couldn't bear to see his wife tired here, so he opened the door and went out.

Xia Guiying snorted in annoyance, refraining from cursing, and turned to go back to her room.

Qin Dongyang followed behind.

Back in her room, Xia Guiying sprawled out, turned her back to Qin Dongyang, and ignored him.

Qin Dongyang took a shower and lay down next to Xia Guiying.

Even with the lights off, his eyes remained bright and alert in the darkness.

He was torn between whether or not to eavesdrop on Yang Guanghui and Fu Zhenlong's conversation.

As night deepened, sleepiness crept in, and his eyelids closed uncontrollably.

Fu Zhengting also fell asleep unknowingly, tormented by drowsiness.

Mu Tiantian was afraid of falling into a deep sleep, so she didn't dare to sleep.

She knows her own sleep patterns all too well; once she falls into a deep sleep, not even firecrackers can wake her.

She stood up, leaned down, and put her ear close to Fu Zhengting's face to listen to his breathing, confirming that he had truly fallen asleep.

They must be exhausted!

Given Fu Zhengting's excellent physical condition, the fact that he could fall asleep at this time shows how tired he must be.

Fu Zhenlong was certain his son was asleep, and he felt very sorry for him.

The psychological blow is the most devastating.

Seeing that Mu Tiantian was still awake, he urged her to go to sleep quickly. He forced himself to stay awake and decided to stay with her until dawn.

Although Xu Xia appears to be asleep, he fears she might be faking it to lower his guard.

He went into the bathroom to wash his face, blinked hard, and suddenly felt dizzy, almost losing his balance.

Fortunately, Mu Tiantian stood up and quickly came over to support him, preventing him from falling.

He gave an awkward laugh and shook his head.

Since the car accident, I can feel that my physical condition has deteriorated a lot.

Even if they recover, they will never be able to return to their previous state.

Just like the relationship with a son...

Hey.

Thinking about these things now will only increase my sadness.

Looking at Fu Zhenlong's forced spirits, Mu Tiantian suddenly felt sorry for him and couldn't bring herself to hate him anymore.

But we can't get close to each other.

Even after marrying Fu Zhengting and entering the Fu family, she could only maintain a polite distance.

She went into the restroom and washed her face.

But around 3 or 4 a.m. is when people are most likely to feel sleepy.

She couldn't bear to leave Fu Zhenlong, an elderly man, to watch over her, and she couldn't bear to wake Fu Zhengting.

She had to guard it herself.

To keep herself from getting sleepy, she ordered a milk tea.

There are quite a few milk tea shops nearby, and one of them happens to be open 24 hours a day.

She ordered a large coconut milk tea with ice.

A cool, refreshing drink can really perk you up.

There probably weren't many orders at night, because the delivery person called in less than half an hour.

The security guard wouldn't let them bring it up, so Mu Tiantian went downstairs to get it.

Before going downstairs, she said to Fu Zhenlong, "After I bring up the milk tea and drink it, you can rest. My body type makes it hard for me to sleep when I drink tea, especially milk tea. It makes me very energetic."

Fu Zhenlong wanted to offer to help Mu Tiantian get it, but Mu Tiantian had already strode out after saying that.

Outside the hospital.

A car was parked in the parking space at the entrance, and Yang Guanghui was sitting in it.

He drove himself and finally arrived after a day and a night.

If you get tired along the way, you can rest at a service area.

He planned to go into the hospital to get some anesthetic so he could kidnap Fu Zhengting and Mu Tiantian.

Also, check if Fu Zhenlong and Fu Zhengting are still hospitalized.

He had just gotten out of the car when he saw Mu Tiantian coming out to get her milk tea.

Mu Tiantian took the milk tea and immediately took a big gulp.

She was drinking her milk tea with her head down, so she didn't notice Yang Guanghui walking slowly towards her.

The delivery driver was in a hurry to deliver the next order, so after handing the food to Mu Tiantian, he immediately went ahead.

The security guard at the entrance happened to need to urinate at that moment and had to leave.

Yang Guanghui watched Mu Tiantian turn and go inside, a sinister smile spreading across his face.

It seems even the heavens are helping him catch up.

He was still worried about how to successfully kidnap Mu Tiantian and Fu Zhengting.

Now is a great opportunity!

Mu Tiantian delivered herself into the line of fire and was kidnapped by him.

There was no one else present besides Mu Tiantian and him.

Just as Mu Tiantian was about to take a step, he strode over, ambushed her from behind, and covered her mouth with his hand.

By the time Mu Tiantian heard a sound behind her, it was already too late.

She sensed danger approaching, her scalp tingling, and she didn't even care about the milk tea that had fallen. She turned to run, but a hand landed on her neck first and controlled her, then her mouth was covered.

Her cries for help were drowned out.

Driven by an overwhelming survival instinct, she quickly raised both hands and grabbed the hand covering her mouth, desperately trying to pull it off.

However, the difference in strength between men and women is significant. Even though Yang Guanghui is old, he can easily gain the upper hand by attacking from behind and control Mu Tiantian with ease.

He remained in position, dragging Mu Tiantian toward the car.

Mu Tiantian kept kicking the ground with both feet.

It was very uncomfortable for her to breathe with her mouth covered, and she struggled fiercely.

Yang Guanghui was furious and dragged Mu Tiantian to the car with increased force.

He deliberately left the car door open after getting out and shoved Mu Tiantian into the back seat. There happened to be a drumstick left by his daughter behind in the back seat. He picked up the drumstick and hit Mu Tiantian hard on the back of the head. Mu Tiantian fainted on the spot from the pain.

To avoid being discovered during a nighttime vehicle check, he took a sterile cloth from the first-aid kit in the car, stuffed it into Mu Tiantian's mouth to gag her, and then threw Mu Tiantian into the trunk.

I didn't expect the kidnapping to be completed so easily.

Last time I made a special trip from the south of the city to the east but didn't have a chance. This time I finally made up for that regret.

He clapped his hands with a cold laugh, closed the trunk door, got back into the car, started the engine, and drove towards the abandoned factory.

He had already chosen the location beforehand.

If we kidnap Mu Tiantian, we won't have to worry about Fu Zhengting not coming!

Fu Zhenlong was a little worried when he saw that Mu Tiantian hadn't returned for so long.

He wanted to go down and check on her, but he was afraid that Xu Xia would wake up if he left.

He was torn between whether or not to wake his son.
