342 The Child Is Missing
From the moment she urged Lin Muyu to add her as a friend and let her be his daughter’s home tutor, to today, Jiang Tong would chat with Lin Muyu when she was free and promised him that she would meet him when she came to Jingdu. Now, it was time.
Jiang Tong typed a message with one hand: “Are you there? I arrived at Jingdu yesterday, and I have some free time today.” Less than half a minute after she sent the message, Lin Muyu responded, “You’ve already arrived at Jingdu? Where are you? Let’s meet somewhere?”
Jiang Tong replied: “I’m at Chaoyang District.”
Lin Muyu replied: “Chaoyang District? That’s such a coincidence, I live in Chaoyang District too. Is it convenient for you to come to my house directly? We can take this opportunity for you to see my daughter, Huanhuan.”
Jiang Tong replied: “Sure.”
After that, Lin Muyu gave the address to Jiang Tong and even typed a message saying sorry for troubling her. The two of them exchanged a few more words before ending the conversation.
Jiang Tong drove on the road. Ten minutes later, she arrived at Jiang An Garden Estate. This estate was not considered high-end in the entire Jingdu. It could only be considered a mid-range one. However, because it was located in a good location, the price of a house in this area was also particularly high. Currently, it was more than 100,000 dollars per square meter. However, this estate had more than ten years of history. When it opened for sale, the house price was not so high. Moreover, Lin Muyu had bought the house early, so he had only spent a few million dollars on it.
Jiang Tong parked the car outside Jiang An Garden Estate and didn’t get out of the car because the management of the estate was very strict. One needed to swipe a card to enter and exit the estate, and there were security guards watching over them. She had to call Lin Muyu and ask him to come out and pick her up.
Jiang Tong dialed Lin Muyu’s phone number, but no one picked up for a long time until the call was disconnected. Jiang Tong calmly called again, but still, no one picked up. When Jiang Tong was about to call again, she saw a girl in a ponytail wearing a black coat and black jeans at the entrance of the community.
The little girl was very beautiful. She was not tall, but she was very thin and fair. She looked to be about 14 or 15 years old and was in the second or third year of junior high. She was still wearing slippers and her eyes were red. Her face was angry and aggrieved. She seemed to have just quarreled with someone as she walked forward angrily.
When Jiang Tong saw the little girl in the car, she smiled and put her phone in her pocket. The little girl was Lin Huanhuan! Lin Huanhuan walked out of the neighborhood and headed west along the sidewalk. Jiang Tong’s car was parked on the side of the sidewalk. She took off her seat belt and got out of the car. She walked on the sidewalk and was directly opposite Lin Huanhuan.
Jiang Tong stood still with one hand in her pocket, and greeted her with a smile, “Lin Huanhuan?”
“What?” asked Lin Huanhuan who was walking while sobbing. She sniffed and asked, “Who are you? Do I know you?”
“You don’t remember me?” Jiang Tong asked with a smile.
“What?” Lin Huanhuan was stunned again. Jiang Tong had a good image and was good-looking. She didn’t look like a bad person, so Lin Huanhuan was not on guard with her for now. Instead, she blinked and looked at Jiang Tong. She thought seriously about who this big sister in front of her was. Had she seen this big sister before? Did she know her?
“And you are?” Lin Huanhuan frowned and thought about it carefully.
At this moment, a man’s voice was heard from the gate of the estate, and at the same time, there were urgent footsteps. “Huanhuan, Huanhuan, stop running!”
Lin Huanhuan turned her head and looked around angrily. She quickly ran to the side of the road, hid behind Jiang Tong’s car, and squatted down. Just as she hid, a man in gray casual clothes rushed out of the estate. He was also wearing slippers and looked very anxious. He looked around as if he was searching for someone.
Jiang Tong stood on the sidewalk with one hand in her pocket. She looked at the man with a subtle expression. This man was Lin Huanhuan’s father, Lin Muyu. Jiang Tong turned her head and looked behind her car. She could see Lin Huanhuan from her angle, but Lin Muyu couldn’t. Lin Huanhuan saw Jiang Tong looking at her and quickly waved her hands at Jiang Tong. She put her hands together and shook them, begging Jiang Tong to keep quiet.
Jiang Tong smiled and looked at Lin Muyu again. Suddenly, she clenched her fist to cover her mouth and coughed. Jiang Tong’s cough made Lin Huanhuan nervous. She glared at Jiang Tong, warning her to stay out of it.
