Stolen Life of the Poor Girl, Top Luxury Family's Group Favor

Chapter 30

Sheng Yuxiao's brow furrowed, making him appear even more terrifying.

"Sell?" He spat out the word, glaring at the aunt with a demonic expression. "What nonsense are you spouting? No one is selling Li Xiaoya."

At that moment, the hospital corridor, which had just quieted down, suddenly erupted with the sound of hurried footsteps.

Qin Sui had arrived with his people.

The local police station had also brought Li Hongguang with them. Upon seeing that officials from the provincial level had arrived, their hearts skipped a beat. This year's performance targets were definitely secure!

"It seems I'm a bit late," Qin Sui spoke up.

Seeing Li Hongguang firmly restrained, the aunt went berserk, letting out an even shriller scream: "Let go of my husband! What's wrong with you people? We're Li Xiaoya's uncle and aunt... Why are you arresting us?"

An elderly man in uniform, with a stern expression, waved his hand: "Take them all away... You should know how many tragic cases are caused by relatives and friends."

The aunt tried to say something more, but Li Hongguang, trembling, cut her off: "Shut... shut up."

He had recognized the shoulder badges on the old man.

They were from the provincial level, very high-ranking! Very high-ranking indeed!

They had all come here to deal with him!

Li Xiaoya, oblivious to the chaos around her, lay weakly on Sheng Yuxiao's shoulder, calling his name in a faint voice: "Sheng Yuxiao, I feel a bit... sick..."

As soon as she finished speaking, she could no longer hold back. With a "wah," she began vomiting violently, crying between heaves: "I'm... I'm sorry..."

After she spoke, her face grew increasingly pale, and then she passed out.

The anger in Sheng Yuxiao's chest blazed higher. He stared at Li Hongguang with icy coldness, not saying a word, but somehow appearing even more terrifying than if he had spoken.

"Doctor, quickly find a doctor!" Qin Sui pushed someone beside him.

Li Xiaoya was taken away.

Meanwhile, Li Hongguang's family of three was temporarily detained on the long benches in the corridor. Li Hongguang rubbed his face hard, gradually regaining his composure: "We are Li Xiaoya's uncle and aunt. I don't know what you've misunderstood that would make you treat us as suspects..."

"Save that for later," Li Hongguang only received a cold, hard reply.

"I want to know who called the police? Li Xiaoya was clearly entrusted to us by her grandfather. Is it wrong for relatives to look after each other?"

At this point, Li Hongguang still suspected that Grandpa Li was being greedy, wanting to have his cake and eat it too, reporting them to extort more money.

"You're asking who called the police?" The officer finally spared him a glance, "Those two young men from earlier."

"They are..."

"Not just them, but countless viewers as well."

Li Hongguang was stunned. "What do you mean?" He suddenly had a bad feeling, struggling to squeeze out the words: "What do you mean by... countless viewers?"

The young police officer's eyes narrowed, exuding an air of righteousness.

He said: "You made Li Xiaoya disappear during the recording of a show, in front of all the viewers. Everyone has been concerned about Li Xiaoya's whereabouts because of this... Now, do you understand?"

Li Hongguang was dumbfounded.

His wife and son also turned deathly pale in an instant.

At this moment, Dou Dawei walked over, eagerly asking: "How's that young girl doing?"

"The doctor is examining her condition."

"Oh, I see." Dou Dawei's gaze shifted, and he swaggered over to Li Hongguang.

"You again!"

"Yes, it's me," Dou Dawei said with a smile. "Do you know who those two young men who just walked by are?"

Li Hongguang glared at him with hatred, his face grim.

Dou Dawei, unfazed by his attitude, continued: "One is called Sheng Yuxiao, the other is Qin Sui..."

Sheng Yuxiao?

Li Hongguang and his wife exchanged a glance.

"One is the young master of Sheng Corporation, the other is the young master of SKP..." Dou Dawei paused, then said two words to them: "Thank you."

"Thank you?" The aunt was bewildered. "What does he mean?"

Li Hongguang realized and instantly flew into a rage: "He's thanking us for giving him an opportunity to connect with rich young masters!"

How could Li Hongguang not understand now?

Immediately, his chest heaved with anger, infuriating him to the point of madness.

Now, they finally knew who the "Sheng Yuxiao" Li Xiaoya had mentioned was.

But it was too late!

Damn it! Damn it all! Why didn't anyone tell them? Why didn't Grandpa Li mention a word about it!

"No, it's impossible, he must be lying to upset us..." the aunt mumbled.

"Lying? Could a lie create such a big commotion?" The more Li Hongguang spoke, the more he felt a chill down his spine.

In another hospital room, the doctor straightened up, his face serious: "The symptoms resemble poisoning, but fortunately, the ingested dose wasn't large. We'll arrange for a gastric lavage immediately."

"Poisoning?" Sheng Yuxiao and Qin Sui stood up simultaneously.

The elderly man standing nearby spoke gravely: "The nature of the case has become even more serious."

Soon after, a police officer approached Li Hongguang and his family, speaking coldly: "Take them directly back to the station, no need to wait. They're suspected of attempted murder."

Li Hongguang's expression changed dramatically: "What? You're talking nonsense! How could we possibly..."

This time, he couldn't even finish a word of defense before being taken away. All that remained in the corridor was the sound of the aunt cursing Grandpa Li to hell and back.

Meanwhile, police cars raced towards Li's village, causing the entire village to erupt in commotion.

"Has Li Xiaoya been found?"

"She might be dead out there, you know."

"The cars are heading that way, they're going to find Grandpa Li!"

Soon, Grandpa Li heard the sirens too. He immediately tumbled out of bed, grabbing his cane.

His face alternating between dark and light, he thought, could it be that the damned girl had been found? And had she reported him?

Grandpa Li hesitated for a moment, then, leaning on his cane, hurried towards the back door where he fed the pigs.

But just as he reached the door, the two diligent bodyguards who had been helping Li Xiaoya feed the pigs looked up.

"Grandpa Li, where might you be going?" The bodyguard, tall and imposing with a square face, was more than enough to intimidate a country old man like Grandpa Li.

As he was blocked on one side, the police entered from the other: "Grandpa Li! Is Grandpa Li here? We need you to come with us."

Grandpa Li threw down his cane and collapsed on the ground: "Oh, oh, my body hurts, I can't go."

The young police officers exchanged glances, then simply picked him up.

Only then did Grandpa Li realize that his little tricks were utterly useless in the face of real authority.

On one side, all the suspects who were supposed to be arrested had been taken into custody.

On the other side, Li Xiaoya had just gone through a gastric lavage. She had only recently recovered from a high fever and hadn't eaten anything, so after the lavage, she was in an even worse state.

A nurse was giving her an IV drip and said sympathetically, "Her skin turns red at the slightest touch. She's so weak. These people, what they've done is truly sinful!"

Sheng Yuxiao wished he could capture this scene and show it to those people online who were still cursing a child.

Sheng Yuxiao composed himself and walked over to tuck in Li Xiaoya's blanket.

Li Xiaoya had regained some consciousness and opened her eyes groggily.

"Am I dreaming?" Her voice sounded even weaker than before.

"It's not a dream, Li Xiaoya. I've come to save you," Sheng Yuxiao said softly.

Qin Sui felt this statement was a bit biased.

"Li Xiaoya," Qin Sui squeezed himself in, "I've been looking for you too."

But the little girl didn't look at him.

Her gaze was unfocused, but she struggled to concentrate on that tiny bit of light in her eyes, and said quietly, "Sheng Yuxiao, I can't write your name."

A few tears rolled down her cheeks as she mumbled, "I can't find you."

Sheng Yuxiao's sharp eyes reddened around the edges, and he said hoarsely, "I'll teach you how to write it tomorrow."

Li Xiaoya nodded with difficulty before falling back into a deep sleep.

Qin Sui said with a wooden expression, "You have such a terrible temper, yet someone is so attached to you. Does this little girl have poor eyesight?"

"Qin Sui, go to hell," Sheng Yuxiao cursed while still keeping his voice low to avoid waking Li Xiaoya.
