Chapter 52: Jingjing, your mother is calling you home for dinner!

Inside the villa, needless to say, all the facilities were built to the highest standards.

As soon as the two little girls stepped inside, their attention was instantly captured by the small amusement park located in a corner of the villa.

Qin Yu felt a pang of quiet pride. This amusement park hadn't existed originally, but the moment she decided to gift the villa to Xue An, she immediately dispatched people to remodel the space. The effort had evidently paid off.

Tang Xuan'er looked around with a sense of cautious reserve, afraid to touch most of the things.

"Mr. Xue, this is the villa we have prepared for you. Here is the property ownership certificate; it has already been transferred to your name. And here are the keys!"

Xue An did not take them. Instead, he looked at Tang Xuan'er beside him and asked, "Do you like it?"

"Huh?"

"If you like it, this place will be yours from now on!"

As soon as these words fell, Tang Xuan'er's face flushed crimson, and Qin Yu's heart gave a slight jolt.

Was he planning to keep a mistress in a hidden golden house?

However, Xue An continued, "Living in the dormitory all the time is not a long-term solution. You can move in here from now on! As for Xiangxiang, Niannian, and me, we will also come over often, though we won't abandon the old house."

The old house held special significance for Xue An; it was the place where he and An Yan had lived together.

Tang Xuan'er nodded softly.

Just at that moment, Xue An's cell phone rang.

After he answered, Old Xie's voice came through the receiver, choked with sobs, "Is that little An?"

Xue An paused slightly, then asked, "Uncle Xie, it's me. What happened?"

"Jingjing... Jingjing was taken away by someone after school. Her phone has been unreachable ever since, and we can't find her anywhere. Auntie Pang has been crying for hours. I was completely out of options, so I had to call you!" By the end of his sentence, Old Xie was openly weeping.

Xue An furrowed his brow. "Uncle Xie, don't worry. I'll go find Jingjing right now!"

"That girl Jingjing, ever since she saw you come back, she dyed her hair back to its natural color and hasn't gone out to run wild again. Auntie Pang and I were so happy, and then this disaster happened!"

Xue An said in a deep voice, "Uncle Xie, tell Auntie Pang that tonight, I will bring Jingjing home safe and sound!"

After hanging up the phone, Qin Yu asked, "What's wrong? Do you need my help?"

Xue An shook his head, then turned to Tang Xuan'er and said, "You stay here with Xiangxiang and Niannian. I'm going out for a bit!"

"Okay!"

Xue An stepped out of the room, closed his eyes, and expanded his divine sense, beginning his search.

With a population as massive as Bei Jiang's, finding someone like Xie Jingjing was no easy task.

Yet for Xue An, it was effortless.

Because Xie Jingjing possessed the rare Pure Yin Constitution, which stood out to his divine sense as brightly as a beacon in the darkest night.

Very quickly, Xue An locked onto his target.

A cold smile played at the corners of his mouth, and then his figure vanished into the evening dusk.

Blue Fire KTV was a mid-range karaoke lounge in Bei Jiang City. Situated in a bustling downtown district and reasonably priced, its business was extremely brisk.

Xue An stood at the entrance, surveying the lavishly decorated KTV, and then stepped inside.

"Good evening, sir. How many in your party? Do you have a reservation?" A waiter stepped forward to greet him.

Xue An shook his head. "I'm looking for someone!"

"Then who is your friend, sir? I can lead you to them!"

Xue An cast a faint glance at the waiter.

The waiter froze instantly in his tracks.

It wasn't until Xue An had walked past that he regained his composure, breaking out in a cold sweat all over.

The gaze of that man was simply terrifying!

The waiter shuddered and hurried away.

Guided by the position of Xie Jingjing within his divine sense, Xue An went straight up to the third floor.

This was considered the VIP section of Blue Fire KTV. Xue An arrived before the door of the private room at the very end of the corridor.

The soundproofing here was exceptional; no sound from within could be heard from the outside.

Yet in Xue An's divine sense, Xie Jingjing was right inside.

He pushed the door, but it was locked from the inside.

At that moment, a security guard walked over and demanded, "What do you think you're doing? This private room has been fully booked by Young Master Wu. If you don't have business here, get lost!"

Xue An maintained a calm expression, ignoring the security guard as he took half a step back.

"What are you trying to pull? Let me tell you, the door to this private room is made of steel and solid wood. If you break it with your foot and hurt yourself, don't say we didn't warn you!" The guard clearly looked accustomed to dealing with drunken troublemakers trying to kick doors down, and his tone was laced with mockery.

Assuming Xue An was drunk and intended to kick the door open, the guard thought he was simply asking for trouble.

However, no sooner had the words left his mouth than Xue An struck out with a fierce punch.

Bang!

A deafening, thunderous crash echoed through the hall.

The guard's ears rang relentlessly from the shockwaves, and then he witnessed the most earth-shattering scene of his life.

The private room door, constructed entirely of solid steel, let out a mournful groaning sound under the man's single punch and then crashed inward to the floor!

Amidst a billow of dust and debris, shrieks of terror erupted from inside the room.

"What's going on?"

"Damn it, who the hell is this?"

Amidst the angry shouts, Xue An walked slowly into the private room. His eyes instantly fell upon Xie Jingjing, who was sitting right in the center with tear-stained cheeks, and a faint smile touched his lips.

"Jingjing, your mother is calling you home for dinner!"

These words caused Xie Jingjing's tears to burst forth like a broken dam.

For the past three hours, ever since school ended, Xie Jingjing had felt as though every second lasted a year.

Ever since Xue An's return, she had resolved to turn over a new leaf and stop her wild ways.

That was why she had dyed her hair back, thrown away her bizarre clothes, and put her school uniform back on.

Yet these changes of hers had infuriated one person.

That person was Xie Jingjing's classmate and a prominent figure in the school, Wu Zefeng.

His family had some wealth, making him a minor second-generation rich kid.

Leaning on his family's influence, he spent his days at school idle, chasing girls and getting into fights.

Eventually, he set his sights on Xie Jingjing, and her beauty had left Wu Zefeng drooling with desire.

Yet even though the former Xie Jingjing had been highly rebellious, she remained fiercely conservative regarding her purity.

No matter how hard he tried, he had never succeeded in advancing with her.

And this time, Xie Jingjing had suddenly changed her temperament; no matter how he summoned her, she refused to come out.

Driven mad by anger and humiliation, he had resorted to semi-coercion to drag her to this place.

Xue Jingjing had wanted to run, but the security guards here were far too dutiful, and Wu Zefeng kept a tight watch on her, leaving her with no way to escape.

As for the so-called friends accompanying them and drinking, all of them harbored the intention of getting Xie Jingjing dead drunk.

Xue Jingjing understood that once she lost consciousness, everything would be over.

Therefore, she racked her brain for excuses, stalling for time as best as she could.

Yet as time ticked away, Xie Jingjing had grown increasingly desperate.

Could it be... that tonight she would truly be ruined here?

Brother An, where are you?

At her most despairing moment, Xie Jingjing thought of Xue An.

Yet her heart was torn by contradiction: she longed for Xue An to appear, yet she dreadfully hoped he would not.

For Xie Jingjing knew that Wu Zefeng wielded considerable influence in this vicinity and reportedly had ties with the owner of Blue Fire KTV.

Brother An was merely an ordinary person; how could he possibly fight against such people?

It was not until the thunderous crash shattered the door and Xue An walked inside that Xie Jingjing burst into tears of shock and joy.

What young girl has never fantasized about a supreme hero descending upon colorful auspicious clouds to save her?

At this very moment, Xue An was her supreme hero!
