Chapter 1618: Chapter 1618: Heaven’s Retribution Spares No One
Qiu Xiaochan didn’t even know how she walked out of the police station. Her emotions went from anger to relief, then to bitterness, and finally settled into calmness. It was truly a mix of feelings.
Indeed, it echoed that saying: ’Heaven’s justice is always served, no one can escape it.’
What awaited them was the punishment of the law, but fortunately their precious Fengfeng was okay, otherwise, she felt she couldn’t go on living.
Stone returned from his assignment, and when he heard the news, his heart nearly stopped. It really scared him to death. He took leave and rushed straight home.
As soon as he walked in, he pulled his wife and son into his arms: "I’m back. I’m sorry, I’m sorry that when you needed me the most, I was not by your side."
Guan Yuqi cried in Stone’s arms: "If it weren’t for my sister, I really wouldn’t have known what to do. You don’t know, when I called your team, they said you were on a mission. I was really on the brink of collapse."
Stone patted Guan Yuqi’s back: "I know, I know, it’s all my fault. It’s all over now. It’s okay, it’s okay. I’m sorry, Yu Qi."
He was so nervous that he started to speak incoherently.
Guan Yuqi cried until she was done, then she wiped her tears: "Zheng Lei, if it wasn’t for sister this time, Fengfeng was really in danger."
Stone nodded heavily: "I owe sister, I’ll never be able to repay it in my lifetime. She raised me, and now she’s saved my son. In my heart, sister is like an elder, the most respected person in my life."
As he spoke, his eyes started to get wet.
After comforting his wife, he then kissed his son’s cheek: "You naughty boy, look how you scared your mom. Will you dare to follow strangers again?"
Xiao Fengfeng, being sensible, said: "I’m sorry, Dad, Mom. I will never go with strangers again. Other than Dad, Mom, Grandma, Grandpa, and Aunt, I won’t go with anyone else."
Stone smiled: "Alright, I’ll be sure to tell your uncle that."
Xiao Fengfeng got anxious after hearing that: "Dad, how can you bully me like that? It’s not that I don’t let uncle pick me up, it’s just that he’s always so busy, so that’s why I said that. You can’t tell him."
After saying this, he looked seriously at his father’s face, as if saying, if you dare not agree, I’ll cry right now.
Stone, seeing his son looking so pitiful, reached out to touch his son’s head: "Alright, I was just teasing you."
Xiao Fengfeng, hearing this, patted his chubby little chest: "That really scared me."
Seeing that his wife and son were alright, Stone finally asked: "Where are Mom and Dad? Weren’t they supposed to be here?"
Guan Yuqi then said: "The police station called and asked them to go over, they should be back soon."
Stone looked at the time: "Should I go pick them up?"
Guan Yuqi thought for a moment: "It’s better to call brother first and ask. You two don’t want to miss each other."
Stone thought that was right too, better to call first.
Lu Yichen was just coming out of a meeting: "Hello, who is this?"
"Brother, it’s me, Stone."
"You’re back?"
"Yeah, I heard everything. It was really close this time. Luckily, sister was there, otherwise..."
He couldn’t finish the sentence. After calming down for a while, he continued: "Anyway, thank you, brother, and sister."
"We’re all family, no need for thanks. Besides, it’s what we should do, right?"
"By the way, brother, did my in-laws leave yet?"
"They left a while ago, they should be home soon."
"Oh, alright. I just meant, if they hadn’t left yet, I would go pick them up. But since they left, I’ll just wait at home, don’t want to miss them."
