Chapter 50

The little girl lay quietly on a straw mat in the room, her pink dress already very dirty.

Ye Yuan walked over and gently patted the girl a few times.

After calling out a few times, the girl slowly woke up, still drowsy.

When the girl woke up, she saw a stranger in front of her.

She cried out, "Wah!" but then seemed to remember something, and while retreating towards the corner, she said with a sense of grievance:

"Uncle, don't give Xinxin any more medicine, Xinxin won't cry."

As she spoke, she covered her mouth with her small hands, feeling wronged.

Seeing the girl's appearance, Ye Yuan easily thought of his niece.

He walked to the girl, picked her up, and said to her:

"Uncle is not a bad person. The bad person who gave you the medicine has already been tied up by Uncle. Do you want to see him?"

The girl, who was picked up by Ye Yuan, kept shivering. Only after Ye Yuan said he had tied up the bad person did the girl feel a bit better.

Ye Yuan directly carried the girl to where the two kidnappers were tied up.

When the girl saw the two people, she was so scared that she tightly clung to Ye Yuan's neck, her small body straining backward, not daring to look at them.

Ye Yuan used a cloth to block their mouths to prevent them from shouting, as it was the middle of the night on a deserted island, and their loud cries were very annoying.

Ye Yuan carried the girl to the speedboat by the shore. Originally, Ye Yuan wanted the little girl to sit down so he could drive the boat and take her away.

Since Ye Yuan had to swim in the sea, he didn't bring his phone, so he could only take the child back to his Fishing Bay Island first.

The girl refused to get down and just clung tightly to Ye Yuan's neck.

With no choice, Ye Yuan had to hold the girl with one hand and drive the boat with the other.

As the speedboat left the shore, a small shark surfaced in the sea. The little girl, seeing the shark, was not as scared as Ye Yuan thought she would be. Instead, she opened her big eyes and looked at the big fish she had never seen before.

Ye Yuan patted the small shark's head and told it to play, then drove the speedboat back to Fishing Bay Island.

On the way, the girl gradually became less afraid. Ye Yuan eventually got an unexpected piece of information from the girl.

This girl turned out to be Su Mei's daughter. Connecting this with Zhang Gui's situation, it was easy to understand the key points.

It must be that Su Mei demanded compensation for breach of contract from Zhang Gui, who then harbored a grudge and kidnapped her daughter to seek revenge.

Back on the island, Ye Yuan had his mother help the little girl take a bath.

He changed her into one of Niuniu's dresses. Niuniu, seeing a child her own age, was very happy.

Niuniu usually had few friends, so when she saw a little friend come to the house, she took out all the toys her uncle had given her and pulled Nianxin to see the red "Golden Dragon Fish" and ride the big yellow dog together.

Su Nianxin rarely came into contact with animals at home. Seeing so many cute and obedient animals here, she quickly forgot about the kidnapping and played with Niuniu.

As soon as Ye Yuan got home, he called Su Mei. He was sure that Su Mei must be very worried.

......

At the Su family home.

Su Mei and her father, Su Wei, were sitting in the living room. Su Mei's mother was already asleep.

They had decided not to tell Su Mei's mother about this matter for the time being.

Just now, Su Mei received a call from someone claiming to have Su Nianxin. The caller used a voice changer, so it was impossible to tell if it was a man or a woman.

They told Su Mei to prepare 5 million yuan by noon the next day and then hung up.

"Don't worry, Xiao Mei. My colleagues and students are helping us look for clues. It's said that the police already have a lead. The last sighting of the van was at Blue Island Pier."

Su Wei told Su Mei the information he had.

Since receiving that call, Su Mei had not said a word, remaining in a dazed state, tightly gripping her phone.

At this moment, her phone rang again.

Without even looking, Su Mei answered it directly.

"I have no problem with the money, but I need to hear my daughter's voice first to ensure her safety. I will give you every cent."

Su Mei was much calmer at this moment.

"Sister Su, it's me, Ye Yuan."

Ye Yuan's voice came from the phone.

"Xiao Yuan, something happened at my house. Let's talk in a few days, okay?"

Su Mei, who had no mood to answer any calls, was about to hang up.

Ye Yuan quickly said:

"Sister Su, is Su Nianxin your daughter?"

Su Mei's finger, which was about to press the hang-up button, suddenly stopped. "How do you know about Nianxin? Have you seen her? Where did you see her?"

Su Mei asked a series of questions, and Ye Yuan, understanding her feelings, didn't explain but said directly: "The little girl is at my house now, she's fine, everything is okay..."

Before Ye Yuan could finish, the busy tone on the phone made him feel awkward.

"What's going on?" Ye Yuan was confused when his phone rang again.

"Ye Yuan, don't go anywhere, I'm coming over, wait for me." Su Mei hung up the phone immediately after saying this.

After calling Su Mei, Ye Yuan also called the police, as there were still two kidnappers on the island.

Though they weren't good people, Ye Yuan didn't want them to die on the island.

He wasn't afraid they would escape. Even if they managed to untie themselves, it was an island, and without a boat, they couldn't escape.

Upon receiving Ye Yuan's report, the police took action.

After making the call, Ye Yuan came out to find the little girl eating voraciously at the dining table, enjoying the food made by Ye's mother.

She had been kidnapped in the afternoon and hadn't eaten anything since, and had cried for a long time, so she was very hungry.

While eating, she kept saying how delicious the food was, making Ye's mother very happy.

After eating, seeing that it was already very late, the little girl cried, wanting to go home. Ye Yuan told her that her mother was on her way.

The little girl then calmed down, and Niuniu accompanied her watching cartoons.

As they watched, both little girls fell asleep on the sofa. Ye Yuan carried them both back to their room.

Sitting in the villa's courtyard, with Big Yellow squatting beside him, occasionally licking his fingers, and Little Gold perched on the back of the chair, preening its feathers.

Soon, Su Mei arrived at Ye Yuan's villa, accompanied by an old man, which surprised Ye Yuan.

Su Wei, a marine biologist, was a big name in his field. Ye Yuan had once stood for two hours in a lecture hall to listen to one of his public lectures.

Su Wei was so popular that students without seats started bidding for them.

At the time, Ye Yuan didn't miss this opportunity to make money and sold his seat to a classmate for 200 yuan.

Thinking of Su Mei and Su Wei's names, Ye Yuan had a vague idea.

Su Mei entered the villa and looked around. Ye Yuan knew she was looking for her daughter and explained:

"The little girl is very tired and has fallen asleep in the room."

Su Mei, still worried, made Ye Yuan take her and her father to the room, but they didn't wake the girl, seeing that she was sleeping soundly.

The three of them went to the living room, and Ye Yuan had his mother make some food for Su Mei and Su Wei, as they hadn't eaten all night. They sat at the dining table and started talking.
