A joyful sound broke the quiet of the morning.Mù Xīng pushed open the door with a glass of red wine in her arms. The house was empty, with only a single note lying lonely on the table:My dear disciple..."Bang!"

The wooden door burst open with a bang.

The afterglow of the sunset bathed the entire room in a reddish hue.

A wooden easel stood by the window, upon which rested a finished seascape.

In the clear space, there was no sign of the little girl, only a pink satchel on the table.

A handsome man frowned and dialed Yun Tuo's number.

Soon, Ye Feibai came with Yun Tuo.

"Where is he/she!"

Fu Lingxiao glared at Ye Fei Bai, his cold eyes filled with anger.

Ye Fei Bai arched her eyebrows and chuckled lightly, her tone laced with a hint of mockery, "Mr. Fu, isn't that what you said"

I have no interest in wasting time with you. Just tell me where Mu Xing is.

Fu Lingxiao's face was frosty, his voice devoid of any warmth, filled with a terrifying ruthlessness.

Ye Fei Bai could clearly feel the chilling aura emanating from the man.

He had already seen this man's ruthlessness. He had used all his wealth to barely stabilize the Ye family's situation. No matter how unwilling he was, he couldn't afford to anger him at this time.

Before I left, the kitten was definitely here. Now, where she is, I have no idea. But when I left, I locked the door. She couldn't open it from the inside unless she ripped the door off its hinges.

Fu Lingxiao frowned, his thin lips pressed tightly together.

When he arrived just now, the door was perfectly locked, and there were no signs of forced entry inside. This rules out the possibility that the little girl was taken away by someone.

If it were a little girl going out on her own…

There is only one exit besides the door.

He strode to the window and looked out. The house was built on a cliff overlooking the sea.

Looking at the surging waves, his heart tightened. The girl was afraid of water!

If she really leaves from here…

"Yun Tuo left contact with Han He to come over for rescue, the others and I go down to look!"

Before his words could even finish, Fu Lingxiao took a long stride and gracefully leaped out the window.

Other bodyguards followed closely behind.

The cliff was at least three hundred meters high, with steep inward-sloping walls. You couldn't see the bottom at all. There were no safety measures in place. Going down there with bare hands would be extremely dangerous.

The bodyguards, who weren't usually talkative, couldn't help but advise: "Master Fu, this is too dangerous! You should go up there, and we'll look for them down here."

"Cut the crap! Move it!"

The little girl's condition is unknown, he has to race against time and find her as quickly as possible!

—At the bottom of a cliff.

Mu Xing stood on the rocks, gritting her teeth, trembling all over. Her fair face was full of fear and helplessness.

She was surrounded by seawater, unable to move an inch.

The sea was still rising, the rocks beneath her feet like an island about to be swallowed.

For a duck terrified of water, this is utter despair.

She clutched the shattered pieces of her phone in her hand, her heart filled with nothing but regret.

How can she be so clumsy! She can't even hold a phone steady!

Two hours ago.

She finished her painting and called Ye Fei Bai to ask when he would be back, but she found that his phone had no signal and couldn't get through at all.

She held her phone out the window to see if it would work, but as she slipped, the phone fell.

That was her uncle's gift to her, and she treasured it dearly. So without hesitation, she immediately climbed down from the window to find it.

After searching for a long time, I finally found my phone in the cracks of the rocks. It wasn't really a whole phone anymore, it was broken and shattered into several pieces and parts.

She was annoyed by her clumsiness. When she had collected all the pieces she could find, she suddenly realized that the reef had been submerged by the sea. The rock she was on was the highest point, so it hadn't been flooded yet, but it was far from the cliff. She tried several times but was scared back each time.

She couldn't overcome the fear in her heart, so she could only stand there and wait for the water to recede.

Unexpectedly, the seawater kept rising higher and higher.

At a speed visible to the naked eye, it passed over her shoes, calf, knee...

Soon, half of her body was immersed in the icy seawater.

Mu Xing's whole body was stiff, her pretty face as pale as paper.

Under the immense terror, she uncontrollably activated her self-sealing state, instinctively severing all contact with the outside world.

As Fu Lingxiao neared the bottom of the cliff, this was the scene that greeted him.

The little girl stood in the water with her eyes tightly closed. The seawater had already reached her waist, but she stood there stiffly, like an unconscious doll.

He was utterly terrified, even the most basic struggle had vanished.

"Mu Xing!"

He urgently called out to her.

The little people in the water still showed no reaction.

Fu Lingxiao's brows were tightly furrowed with worry. He glanced down, his position was still about ten meters away from the water at the bottom of the cliff. The next second, he jumped without hesitation.

He couldn't wait to climb down, he wanted to rush to the little girl's side!

All the bodyguards were taken aback by the man's sudden leap. Had Grandpa Fu gone mad What if the water wasn't deep enough This jump could be fatal!

Fortunately, the water level here is already quite deep.

The moment Fu Lingxiao fell into the water, he quickly swam towards Mu Xingyou.

The seawater was still rising rapidly, just about to engulf Mu Xing's mouth and nose, when the man finally arrived, pulling her out of the water and holding her in his arms.

"Mu Xing."

Fu Lingxiao lifted her body upward and lowered his head to rest against her forehead, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

A voice as gentle as can be, soft and low, washes into your ears, brimming with soothing power.

The girl’s long eyelashes trembled slightly, then went still.

"Good girl, open your eyes and look at me."

The voice was irresistibly seductive, like it was intentionally alluring.

The girl was drawn to the sound, slowly opening her eyes. Her gaze was empty and lifeless, clearly still emerging from the state of confinement.

Fu Lingxiao gently kissed her lips, patiently awakening her: "Can you see me"

His thin lips rubbed against hers, the soft and slightly cool sensation gradually breaking through Mu Xing's closed senses, her blurry vision slowly coming into focus.

Right before her eyes was a face of breathtaking handsomeness. His deep-set eyes stared at her quietly, reflecting the light with gentleness, creating ripples that made one want to drown in them.

"Uncle"

Mu Xing's eyes widened in disbelief.

How could my uncle be here Is she dreaming

Seeing the little girl recover, Fu Lingxiao let out a breath of relief and replied with a smile, "En."

Uncle answered her! It wasn't a dream!

"Uncle!"

Mu Xing reached out and hugged the man's neck, burying her face deeply into his collarbone, her voice choked with emotion: "I thought I'd never see you again."

Fu Lingxiao raised his hand to caress her nape, soothingly saying, "Silly girl, I'm here, don't be afraid."

"Master Fu!"

Yuntuo hurried over, "Hanheng just called me and said he'll be here in ten minutes."

The water level was still rising, almost reaching Fu Lingxiao's chest. The little girl huddled in his arms, her head resting on his shoulder, her body shivering visibly as it soaked in the water.

He clasped the little girl's hand tightly and ordered Yun Tuo, "Call him and have him arrive in five minutes!"ays on the move, making him very difficult to find.”If he's so mysterious, how did he become known as a divine doctorYuntuo's questions struck at the very soul.Shen Lue awkwardly twitched the corner o...
