A Hostage to Fortune

Chuchu stopped walking.

She was about to ask what he would like to hear before she looked abruptly in the direction of the village entrance and her face changed slightly.

Xie Heng also noticed and looked back, but he did not release the hand of Chuchu.

"It's Manager Lin!" Chuchu's eyesight was no different at night than it was during the day. She could see who the person stumbling and running was.

"Xin Lichuan isn't with him. Something must have happened to him," Xie Heng whispered.

"Da Lang, you go back and get Junjun settled first. I'll check it out."

"Okay."

Only then did he let go of Chuchu and strode toward home.

Chuchu took a few quick steps and soon arrived at the village entrance.

She muttered to herself, "Just like I've said, they are giving hostages to fortune. Wasn't I right?"

Holding a torch, Chuchu recognized Manager Lin as soon as he got close.
