Chapter 779: Chapter 779: Where Is She?

“Ningning, you must come straight home after school, and if anything happens, you have to tell your family. You definitely can’t go to a classmate’s home without telling your mom and dad. Just look at how worried the adults are?”

Ningning nodded firmly, “Auntie, Mom and Daddy Jia have already told me that. Besides, whenever he has time, Daddy Jia comes to pick me up from school. Daddy Jia also told me not to play casually with boys. Although I don’t think playing with boys is anything bad, since Daddy Jia said so, I need to obediently listen.”

Lin Chuxia smiled slightly; Jia Liang is already worried about little troublemakers luring his daughter away, and Ningning is still so young.

It’s undeniable that Jia Liang truly treats Ningning as his own daughter.

“Ningning, you’re right. Even if you have a different view than Daddy Jia and Mom, you’d need to communicate and solve the problem with them, rather than secretly doing things your own way. I believe Daddy Jia and Mom love you, will respect your opinions, and think of what’s best for you.”

“I know Daddy Jia likes me best,” Little Ningning said proudly, “Auntie, I wanted to say that Feng Jingjing might not have gone to a classmate’s home; she might still be at school.”

Although her voice was not loud, this was the time when everyone was discussing the children, and people were standing nearby, so it immediately drew everyone’s attention.

As soon as they saw Ningning was about the same age as Feng Jingjing, they quickly asked, “You mean you know where Feng Jingjing went? Are you her classmate?”

Feng Dajun stepped forward quickly, “Do you know where Jingjing is?”

Ningning only had a feeling. After all, Feng Jingjing was always alone, and she hadn’t seen any friends with her.

Furthermore, she thought Feng Jingjing should be a girl who understands rules well enough not to go to a classmate’s home or stay out overnight without saying anything to her family.

She just wanted to share her thoughts with her auntie, but unexpectedly, everyone was looking at her.

Even Feng Jingjing’s mom and dad looked very fierce.

Lin Chuxia sensed Little Ningning’s unease and immediately held her protectively.

“Engineer Feng, you’ve scared her. Let’s talk it over slowly.”

Feng Dajun realized something, nodded apologetically to Lin Chuxia, “I’m sorry, I was too anxious. Is this child related to Mr. Lin?”

Feng Dajun didn’t recognize Ningning, but judging by her age, she couldn’t be much older than his daughter.

Lin Chuxia asked Ningning if she had seen Feng Jingjing or something like that; why did she think Feng Jingjing might still be at school?

Ningning then shared her thoughts, finally looking timidly at Feng Dajun, “I’m not sure. That’s just how I feel.”

Anyway, at least there was some direction now.

Feng Dajun immediately wanted to go to the school to find his child. He then asked Lin Chuxia, “Mr. Lin, I have an unfair request. Since this child is a classmate of Jingjing’s, can she come along? After all, she’s familiar with the school.”

Though there were issues between Lin Chuxia and Sister-in-law Feng, losing a child was no small matter, so Lin Chuxia didn’t refuse Feng Dajun’s request.

At this point, Qin Yang also arrived. After understanding what happened, he went with everyone to the school.

The school was quiet on the weekend, with only the gatekeeper and two teachers who lived far from school and stayed there.

Feng Dajun explained the situation to the gatekeeper. The gatekeeper was indifferent, “It’s the weekend, students and teachers have gone home. Look at this empty school, where would any students be? You should look somewhere else; they definitely aren’t here.”

Feng Dajun insisted on looking around the school.

The two teachers on duty came over, and one of them was a physical education teacher who taught Ningning and the others.

After understanding the situation, the teacher looked more serious, “A child not coming home for a night is no small matter. Let’s tour the school and check each classroom. If we don’t find anything, then you can look elsewhere.”

With the teacher’s support, the gatekeeper didn’t stop them, and the group went straight into the school.

The school was a completed elementary with six classes.

The whole school had three rows of buildings, with offices and teachers’ dormitories in the last row.

The first two rows were student classrooms.

A row beside was for storage of logistics supplies and rooms to store sports equipment.

The group split into two and quickly checked the two rows of classrooms.

Inside the classrooms was empty, easily seen.

The rear teacher’s offices were all locked, but even thinking it was impossible, Feng Dajun looked through each glass window.

After checking everything, there was no sign of Feng Jingjing.

The physical education teacher shrugged, “It seems she’s not at school. Does she have close classmates or relatives or friends nearby?”

Feng Dajun frowned tightly.

His relatives were all back home. Here, he didn’t have close relatives, not even close friends.

And Sister-in-law Feng mentioned that Feng Jingjing didn’t have close classmates either.

Just as they were thinking, they saw Little Ningning heading toward a side room of the school.

Lin Chuxia was always watching her and moved over with her.

The physical education teacher spoke up, “Those rooms are storerooms, and without a teacher’s permission, students aren’t allowed there. Furthermore, the sports equipment room is impossible; I organized the supplies this morning, and no one is inside.”

Ningning stood at the equipment room door, looking at the lock, then moved to the logistics storeroom door, standing there, her eyes fixated on the lock.

Lin Chuxia immediately noticed something wrong with the lock and gently pulled it open.

Surprised, she instinctively looked behind herself.

The others were already watching the two, and when they saw Lin Chuxia easily unlock it, they all came over.

She gently pushed open the storeroom door.

Inside, it was cramped, with teacher’s educational materials and various student daily necessities piled messily.

Because it was so full, part of the window was blocked, making it even darker.

The open door allowed sunlight to flood in, revealing the storeroom.

Almost simultaneously, gasps and exclamations were heard.

In the corner filled with brooms and sweeping tools, they saw Feng Jingjing tied up hand and foot, with duct tape over her mouth, her eyes blankly staring ahead.

Her original ponytail had been cut unevenly, exposing patches of scalp, with all cut hair strewn around.

With just one glance, Lin Chuxia pulled Little Ningning into her arms, preventing her from seeing inside.

Meanwhile, Feng Dajun roared and rushed towards his daughter lying on the ground…

……………

Ningning returned home in a somber mood.

Qin Juan had heard about the Feng family’s situation, quietly complaining about their parents’ irresponsibility while comforting her daughter, worried the sight Ningning saw might leave a shadow on her heart.

Only by dinner time, seeing hotpot and her favorite soda, did Ningning cheer up again.
