Xing Wu suddenly felt a headache coming on when he saw who it was. They were screwed!
"Madam..."
"Xing Wu, husband... Where's Leo? Where is he? Didn't you guys already get Leo back?" she seized Xing Wu and looked to her husband who lay on the bed. There was suddenly immense horror across her face. "Did something happen to Leo? Tell me! Did something happen to Leo?!"
Otherwise, why would he have fallen ill?
His face was full of fatigue as he quickly tried to console her, "Wife, calm down! Nothing has happened to Leo... Lisa has already gone to save them..."
Then, he looked at Xing Wu on the side.
Xing Wu understood his reminding gaze and quickly followed up, "That's right, Madam. Master has already gone to save him! Very soon, we'll be able to bring them back!"
"Really?" she was pacified a little, then she reached her hand out to her chest. "Then, why... Why do I feel like I still can't be at ease? This is exactly what I felt the last time Leo was kidnapped. Can Lisa save Leo? Leo will be okay, won't he?"
"Of course, he'll be okay! Since the other party has stated their conditions for an exchange, as long as we fulfill their requests, the Little Master will definitely be okay! Madam, please wait patiently! Don't you trust Master?" Xing Wu's tone held a degree of certainty.
"Okay, okay... I'll go recite some chants... I'll go pray for the Buddha to protect our Leo... and that girl..." she nodded, then she left the room in a daze.
Xing Wu and Father Manoban let out a sigh of relief.
After she left, he picked up the phone and played the video again. He was trying to see if he could find any clues he might have missed out on previously. Unfortunately, he still came up with nothing.
A while later, Mother Manoban knocked on the door and entered again. She held a cup of ginseng tea in her hands. "Husband, drink some ginseng tea."
He quickly put the phone down. "Okay, don't busy yourself. Rest more!"
"I'm fine... I can't stay idle..." she still looked panic-stricken as she answered him. "Husband, do you still remember? Master Xuan Jing said that the girl would bring good luck. She could turn misfortunes into blessings! That girl has gone along too! Her good fortune will shade our Leo! So, this time, our Leo will definitely be okay, right? Don't dismiss all of this. Sometimes it really works!"
He agreed with her, "Yes, he'll definitely be okay! I didn't dismiss it! I do believe in it!"
Probably because she had some spiritual support, she felt slightly better. She walked out with her husband's empty cup in her hands.
He did not notice that when she left with the cup, she had silently taken his handphone...
It was too late when he realized his phone had gone missing.
At that second, his wife's frightened shriek was heard outside the door, then bam! There was no further sound.
He quickly pulled out the drip and staggered out, then he saw that his wife had fainted with the phone still playing the video recording in her hand.
She had not believed them after all. It was probably because she saw that he was looking at his phone that she sneaked it away for a look...
"Madam! Madam, wake up!' Xing Wu nipped her philtrum.
She gradually regained consciousness and she sat blankly on the cold floor. Her jet black eyes were filled with a coldness that sent chills up one's spine. "Leo is dead... My Leo is dead,isn't he?"
