Night fell.
The surroundings were deathly quiet. After the nurse gently closed the door, it creaked open, and two people tiptoed in.
There was a baby in the isolation room who wasn't asleep yet. The baby stared at the two people with wide eyes and kicked its legs vigorously.
The two didn't stay long. They quickly found their target by looking at the information on each room. Two babies were sound asleep with their eyes tightly shut.
The one who came first gave a look to the other. The latter immediately understood and took out a velvet blanket. They carefully lifted the babies out of the incubators, one in each of their arms.
They had come without making a sound, and they left just as quietly. Just as they closed the door, one of them suddenly hid. The other was confused but also hid.
They let out a sigh of relief after the nurse left.
Then they quickly left with the babies in their arms.
The next day.
Gu Sisi woke up from exhaustion. Huo Cheng was holding a bowl of soup he had specially made for her and feeding her spoon by spoon.
Although her body suddenly felt lighter, the after - effects were still there. She swallowed weakly.
Just then, a nurse came running in a panic, like a headless fly.
Huo Cheng immediately stood up and shielded Gu Sisi, afraid that the nurse would pounce on her.
Gu Sisi craned her neck and asked the pacing nurse cautiously, "Excuse me... is there something wrong?"
She asked timidly. The nurse seemed to finally remember what to say.
She stood in front of them with her head down, twiddling her fingers, and said with difficulty, "Your babies... are missing."
Although her voice was soft, Gu Sisi heard it clearly. She asked in disbelief, "What?"
This made the nurse feel even more guilty.
She blushed, bit her lip, and said, "They're missing. I've informed the hospital, and they're checking the surveillance."
Gu Sisi understood what had happened and her face turned deathly pale.
She said and was about to get out of bed.
"I don't believe it. I have to go and see."
But Huo Cheng stopped her. He hugged her tightly and soothed the agitated Gu Sisi gently, "Leave everything to me. Your current task is to take good care of your body."
"But they're so small," Gu Sisi couldn't hold back her emotions any longer and said with a sob.
She had seen them so tiny just yesterday. Why was she hearing such news today?
This mustn't be true. Gu Sisi was very sure, so she wanted to go and confirm.
Looking at Gu Sisi whose emotions had already collapsed, Huo Cheng's face darkened, and his aura was overwhelming. He said in a low voice to the nurse behind him, "Go and get your hospital director here now. I want an answer!"
The nurse shivered. She felt a chill run down her spine. She could sense that if she stayed there, there would be danger.
She quickly turned around and ran, choking out, "Okay."
For a moment, the whole hospital was in an uproar. It was not only because two babies had inexplicably disappeared from the hospital, but also because a section of the surveillance footage from that night was missing, as if it had been deliberately erased.
The hospital director was in a more difficult situation than the nurse on duty that night.
The director was firmly controlled. In what used to be a rather cozy director's office, Huo Cheng was sitting in front of him with a group of people.
"Are you sure this has nothing to do with the hospital?" Huo Cheng asked indifferently, glancing at the man in front of him.
The bespectacled director immediately trembled and said shakily, "I guarantee it has nothing to do with the hospital."
"Guarantee?" Huo Cheng snorted. "How can you prove it has nothing to do with you?"
Huo Cheng stared straight at the hospital director. The director wanted to avoid his gaze, but a man in black behind him grabbed his chin and forced him to look at Huo Cheng.
The man in front of him had unfathomable eyes. The director could sense that this man was extremely dangerous. He tried to remain calm and said, "Our hospital will definitely cooperate with the investigation."
This was not the answer Huo Cheng wanted, but there was no better one.
"Then can I call the police?" Huo Cheng asked tentatively, his hand slowly brushing over the rim of a porcelain cup.
The director swallowed hard, trying to figure out the purpose of this question. Under the pressure, he suddenly had an idea and quickly said, "I guarantee we'll cooperate."
Huo Cheng then gave a look to the people behind him. They walked out, and the last one kindly closed the door.
The director slumped to the ground as if he was completely drained. He pulled at his clothes, and his back was soaked, sticky and hot.
Huo Cheng walked to the front. The people behind him exchanged looks but couldn't come to a conclusion.
Finally, just as Huo Cheng was about to enter his wife's ward.
One person immediately stepped forward and asked, "Young master, are we really going to call the police?"
Huo Cheng stopped, lowered his eyes, and nodded.
The people let out a sigh of relief. Just as they were about to leave, Huo Cheng called them back.
"Remember, the bigger this gets, the better."
The people were stunned and watched the young master enter the room.
Well, they'd just do as the young master asked.
"Any news?" Gu Sisi opened her eyes wide and sat up immediately as soon as she saw Huo Cheng come in.
Huo Cheng immediately stepped forward to support her and frowned, saying softly, "You shouldn't sit up too often yet."
But she didn't listen. Instead, she stared at Huo Cheng without blinking.
Huo Cheng sighed and patted Gu Sisi's shoulder. "It's not that fast yet, but don't worry. I'll definitely do my best to find our babies."
Hearing this, Gu Sisi, who had been full of hope, felt her heart sink. She was stunned and said blankly, "What if we can never find them?"
"No, we will." Huo Cheng stroked Gu Sisi's back, knowing her current worries.
He had a vague suspicion in his mind, but he couldn't prove it immediately.
To Gu Sisi, this was just a comforting word.
She couldn't hold back her grief and burst into tears.
Huo Cheng hugged her in his arms. Although Gu Sisi's tears kept flowing, she had already made up her mind.
"Kids, don't worry. Mom will do her best to find you," Gu Sisi thought silently.
This incident quickly caused a stir in the whole city. Everyone knew that the president of the Huo Group's two babies had gone missing from the Qingxin Hospital.
This incident had a great impact on the Qingxin Hospital. Many pregnant women who were about to give birth heard that even the babies of such a powerful person had gone missing, so they thought it was too dangerous and chose other hospitals. Although the director was secretly aggrieved, he didn't dare to say a word.
Another place that was seriously affected was the Huo Mansion.
The two people who had stolen the babies were leisurely having breakfast, but Mr. Huo was already furious.
He walked over with his walking stick and stood in front of them. When they saw something was wrong, they looked over, were stunned for a moment, and called out blankly, "Father."
Mr. Huo never came to find them on purpose. What was going on today?
