"And then what happened..." Ji Chuan held his breath, his heart already anticipating what would happen next.
"By the time my mom remembered school was out and rushed to pick up Huanhuan, she realized the child was already gone." Yan Ye said in a low voice.
He could never forget that day, as if the sky over their home had collapsed.
His mother frantically searched inside and outside the school for Yan Huan countless times, sent a telegram to his father Yan Luquan's military unit, and even reported it to the police.
But no matter what, they couldn't find Yan Huan.
"She was taken away, wasn't she?" Ji Chuan asked.
"Yes." Yan Ye took a deep breath, "My parents didn't sleep for several nights. The house was shrouded in a bleak atmosphere. After the military and the police joined forces in the search for a full half month, suddenly, one day, a message came back from faraway Jiangning, and my excited parents almost jumped up. They said the child was found."
