Rebirth from the Ashes Chapter 564 - Help You Look

Chapter 564: Help You Look

“Hubby.” Shangguan Yanqiu murmured. Unable to see anything else, she was fixated on the car and ran with all her might.
The road towards the tourist attraction was packed with tourists on both sides.
The tourists immediately gave way to the beautiful and elegant lady who was scampering in a frenzy.
With her eyes on the car not too far away, she desperately put up a chase. Nevertheless, there was no way a human could outrun a car.
It did not take long before the car disappeared out of sight. The beautiful lady was still sprinting in the same direction like the car was her light, her life, and her everything.
Shangguan Yanqiu completely lost her cool. She did not know what to do, other than keep running. She raced with all her might to catch up to the car and see if it was really him.
Alas, she lost the race. The moment the car vanished, she felt all her will sapped out of her. Shangguan Yanqiu let out an anguished and heart-wrenching cry, “FU! HAN! DING!”
As the silver Bentley turned at the bend, the man in the backseat felt a shooting pain in his heart. Grasping his chest, he turned his head out the window and said, “Fu Yu, did you hear that?”
Fu Yu frowned in puzzlement. “What are you referring to, Mr. Jin Yu?”
Since they were at a tourist spot, people were clamoring with all kinds of noises.
“Nothing.” Jin Yu took a deep breath. His profound eyes carried sadness and doubt as he slowly released his grip against his chest. Furrowing his brows, he stared at his chest.
What did he hear? He had no idea. He did feel like he heard something.
He was caught in a moment of gut-wrenching heartbreak.
Outside the window, all he could see were bustling people. It was a lively scene.
Right in the middle of the road, Shangguan Yanqiu was on her knees as she gazed at the empty space ahead in despair. The tour bus behind her was honking to get her to leave.
However, she could not seem to hear anything as she sat alone in despair, allowing sorrow and helplessness to engulf her whole. Tears ran down her cheeks.
The passing tourists could feel the immense anguish, pain, and grief from her. It was like she lost her world.
The tour bus kept on sounding the horn. Out of patience, the driver got off the vehicle and angrily chided, “Hey! Are you blind or deaf? Get out of the way!”
Shangguan Yanqiu felt the whole world leaving her behind as she stared blankly at where the car disappeared to. She was lost in her own world.
The driver was frustrated. This person was a cuckoo. With the cuckoo obstructing his work, he extended his arm to push her.
Someone seized him by the wrist before he did the deed. The next minute, he was faced with the murderous eyes of a girl. The driver moved back in fear.
Appearing cold and dangerous, Shen Xi shoved the driver aside.
The driver shivered in fear. It was best he let the matter slide. In an attempt to shake the fear off, he glared at her in bravado. “Move her aside.”
Shen Xi kneeled before Shangguan Yanqiu and tried to bring her back to earth. “Madam Fu.”
Shangguan Yanqiu was nowhere to be seen when Shen Xi and Fu Qingxuan returned from the convenience store. Yu Qiubai bought the ticket and came back to find her missing too.
The trio split up to search for her. Shen Xi came by here and saw a crowd surrounding Shangguan Yanqiu who was on her knees in the middle of the road. A driver was shouting at her.
Shangguan Yanqiu slowly withdrew from her world of sorrow and despair following the sound of Shen Xi’s voice. She looked at the girl with tears rolling down her face.
Shen Xi was heartbroken and at a loss of what to do. She reached out to wipe Shangguan Yanqiu’s tears away. What was going on? What happened?
“Xixi.” Shangguan Yanqiu suddenly pulled and locked Shen Xi into her arms. With her chin resting against Shen Xi’s shoulder, Shangguan Yanqiu muttered hoarsely, “Don’t move. Let me hold you for a while.”
Shen Xi’s heart really went out to Shangguan Yanqiu. Feeling sorry, Shen Xi hugged her back without saying a word.
It was during this moment that Shen Xi could feel the helplessness and anguish coming from Shangguan Yanqiu. The air seemed to be sucked dry by grief, leaving nothing to breathe on.
Yu Qiubai and Fu Qingxuan soon came after. They found Shen Xi and Shangguan Yanqiu embracing in a prostrating position by the road.
Fu Qingxuan drew close. He was worried sick. “What’s wrong, Mom?”
“Nothing.” Shangguan Yanqiu sheepishly pulled away from Shen Xi’s arm at the sound of her son’s voice. “Thank you, Xixi. I’m sorry you have to see that.”
Shen Xi shook her head. “Not at all.”
Fu Qingxuan gazed at her. “Mom.”
Shangguan Yanqiu forced a smile. She was feeling much better after crying out her pain, despair, and hopelessness. “Nothing. My eyes deceived me again.”
Were her eyes playing tricks on her again?
However, it was really him in the car.
Yu Qiubai gave Shen Xi a look to ask what was going on.
Shen Xi shook her head. She did not know as well. Nevertheless, Madam Fu looked like she had seen a ghost. Was it her daughter?
It did not seem right on second thought. The Fu family’s daughter was lost before she was even a month old. How could Madam Fu recognize her?
Fu Qingxuan kneeled before Shangguan Yanqiu and gently hugged her to give her comfort and strength. Feeling down, he uttered, “Don’t worry, Mom. We will find Dad.”
Yu Qiubai, “…”
Shen Xi was dumbstruck. “…”
Dad?
Not the daughter?
Other than the daughter, the Fu family lost their father too?
Shangguan Yanqiu soon got over her emotions and pulled herself together. She apologetically looked at Shen Xi and Yu Qiubai, “I’m sorry for all the trouble I’ve caused.”
Shen Xi shook her head, feeling bad for the woman. “Madam Fu, let’s call it a day. You should get some rest.”
She really had no idea that the Fu family lost the head of the family as well. Jesus. How did Madam Fu make it through with her daughter and husband missing?
“Okay,” Shangguan Yanqiu responded. She was no longer in the mood for sightseeing.
Fu Qingxuan gratefully nodded at Shen Xi before walking back with Shangguan Yanqiu arm-in-arm.
Shen Xi was not one to get into other people’s business, especially the Fu family. Since she did not care for Fu Qingli, she refused to have further involvement with the family.
She thought Yu Qiubai was not the kind to meddle in people’s personal affairs too as the d*mn fox did not want trouble knocking at his door. To her dismay, he eagerly made discreet inquiries about what Shangguan Yanqiu saw.
Shen Xi kicked him, pinched him, and tipped him the wink. Too bad the fox looked the other way.
Shangguan Yanqiu did not shy away from the question and told them the whole story.
“Madam Fu, are you sure it’s a silver Bentley?” Yu Qiubai asked once more before adding. “This is a one-way street leading up to Sunnyside. The only access. If you don’t mind, I can help you look.”
