Jiang Xueyue turned towards Jiang Xuejing and proceeded to recollect the situation to him from the start. A slight arc formed inbetween Jiang Xuejing's solemn but charismatic face.
"Let her stay with us for this meantime while i look into the matter."
Jiang Xuejing stated with a serious face as he turned to look at the small child. The child stood there unmoving looking around still in hopes to see the glimpse of her mother. The pair of siblings prayed for this child to find her mother soon with saddened mein, their hearts went out to this tiny little thing.
"I'll inform the elder's about this matter. Don't worry, brother will surely try his best "
His voice turned gentle, trying to reassure his sister who was currently frowning with clear gloom on her face. He would give his best in this matter, Jiang Xuejing promised himself in his heart , looking at the pair of two little girls standing infront of him with red eyes trying to hold back tears, one old and one young.
Jiang Xuejing found the sight adorable and comforting.
Looking at the eleven year old girl, Jiang Xuejing felt as if he was looking at the younger Jiang XueYue.
"What's your name,little girl."
Jiang Xuejing bent down , his tone and expression both filled with tenderness. He couldn't bring himself to be cold to this tiny thing ,who appeared to have the seriousness of an adult.
" Yan Yixing."
The girl's soft and crisp voice suitable for a child sounded. The little girl went from being solemn to smiling when she uttered her nane,as if the name was the brightest memory in her mind. Her dark brown eyes shown brightly as hope emerged in-depth of it.
"Child, is it alright if we bring you to our house till this big brother and sister help you to find your mother."
Jiang Xueyue asked gently,carefull to observe the girl's every expression. She wanted to make sure this child was not unhappy in the slightest bit. She unconsciously felt protective of this girl.
"Will you really find my mother?" the little girl asked in tremors and sobs. Her teary eyes conveyed her yearning for her mother. The child really missed her mom.
"We will!"The pair of siblings, Jiang Xuejing and Jiang Xueyue said in a clear , assuring voice at the same time. They exchanged glances and sure enough found thr strong determination in each other's eyes.
"Promise?"
"Promise!"
...
Jiang Xueyue took the child to eat while Jiang Xuejing went to call their father. The elder's of the family had to aware about their decision and the siblings were quite sure none of the elder's will object on this either.
That being the first reason,the other reason was to ask for help from the elder's as they possessed strong and wide network and could definitely help much more. The siblings shared the tacit understanding,they wanted to find this child's mother as soon as possible.
They were good at discerning other's expressions and emotions, let alone a small child who still had to learn much.
This little girl didn't complaint nor did she cry yet they knew the child was suffering mentally in the sudden absence of her mother. If the matter was to be delayed, who knew this child might break down and fell traumatic after the incident. They couldn't allow such thing to happen to this adorable angel.
Jiang Xueyue sat on the couch, fervently typing on her laptop with her right hand, as her eyes shone sharply. The previous Jiang Xueyue was only interested in one thing,that was computers after she returned to the Jiang family three years ago. Thus,Jiang Xueyue was quite decent in hacking.
Jiang Xueyue wanted to hack into the hospitals security cameras to see if she could find any trace about Yan Yixing's mother. However,all she found was blank tape,the recording was actually destroyed. Jiang Xueyue traced the codes , trying to find the mastermind behind this matter but couldn't locate it.
Jiang Xueyue simply let go for now,her big brother would start investigating from the hospital camera recording too,and she was sure they would find some clues.
Jiang Xueyue turned to look at the bed, where a small lump of blanket could be seen. This girl had cried herself to sleep. Jiang Xueyue wished she could get this girl's mother immediately so that she could see this adorable child smiling brightly without any worries on her tiny face.
"knock,knock."
Several knocks sounded, from the steady rhythm of the knocks, Jiang XueYue estimated the person knocking must be her first brother. In this short span, Jiang Xueyue had already memorized these details of her family members.
Jiang Xueyue went to open the door and was taken aback to find a whole lot of people there. The whole Jiang family as well as Mo Sicheng, who was supposed to be out on military duty was present.
She moved aside to let everyone enter before closing the door. Everyone went ahead to quietly look at the child on the bed,no one uttering anything, afraid to wake the child up.
Jiang Xueyue was about to join them too, when she was hugged in an embrace. The person still carried the clean sandalwood scent. It always managed to relieve her somehow,she didn't know if it was because of the scent or the man carrying the scent.
"Sweetheart, don't worry, We got this."
Mo Sicheng said in a low whisper as if afraid to disturb the resting beauty in his arms. He could feel the girl's concern when he entered and looked in her eyes. She was worried about the child. However,the girl had relaxed now,as she let go of her worries trusting him completely that he would make this right.
Mo Sicheng patted the girls back in an soothing attempt while he glanced at the little girl sleeping in the bed. Only the face could be seen but it was enough to discern the child's cuteness.
Mo Sicheng gave the child a profound look as he thought of the reason this child could cause so much worry to his girl. Yet he could tell Jiang Xueyue really didn't know this girl.
