?The cross-border kidnapping ended here. Xia Lan and Elsa were successfully rescued, and a group of robbers were arrested. The Lin family mansion was filled with joy. Because of her parents' firing Qiu Yu, Xia Lan still felt resentful and refused to call her parents. It was Lin Xueshan who patiently persuaded her that she used her cousin's cell phone to call her mother Lin Chuqing.

Qiu Yu and others sat around him, all looking at Xia Lan. After the phone was connected, Lin Chuqing's weak voice came from the receiver of the phone, "Hey, Xue Shan?"

As soon as she heard her mother's movement, Xia Lan's beautiful but haggard face appeared in her mind. All the complaints were flowing, and a crystal tears fell from her eyes. She choked and said, "Mom, I am Lanlan."

"Ah, you are Lanlan, are you really Lanlan? Where are you..." Lin Chuqing's voice trembled, thinking that she had heard it badly, or had hallucinations due to neurasthenia, she asked incoherently.

"Mom, it's really me." The mother's fierce reaction became more and more infecting Xia Lan, and tears kept pouring out, and she cried: "Mom, it's really me... It's okay now, I'm rescued."

"That's great, Lanlan, you're finally safe, wow..." Unable to suppress the excitement, Lin Chuqing burst into tears. Xia Lan couldn't stand it even when she cried like this, and the mother and daughter were about to cry across the phone.

This phenomenon seems understandable to us Orientals. The mother and daughter are in love. Now they are in trouble, so it is normal to hold their heads and cry. However, Elsa, as a Westerner, was puzzled. Why didn’t it happen? It wasn’t that successfully escaped, and why were you crying without any damage? Are the Chinese people’s tear glands very rich?

Sister Guihua waited for the maid to comfort Xia Lan. After a while, Xia Lan stopped crying. At this time, her father Xia Chenghai had been replaced by her phone. As a man, she had to deal with problems much rationally. Even though her voice was filled with joy, she did not lose her composure and asked: "Lanlan, tell me, who kidnapped you, and what is their purpose?"

Seeing that his cousin was covered in tears, Lin Xueshan took out a handkerchief to wipe the tears from Xia Lan's face. After crying, Xia Lan's mood was relieved and her voice became much more stable. "I don't know what the kidnappers are, but they are all foreigners, and their purpose is to make the ancient painting you gave me back then."

Xia Chenghai asked in surprise: "How did they know about that ancient painting?"

"I don't know either. Anyway, they said that if they couldn't get the painting, they would tear me the ticket." There were many people around and the treasure map was involved. Xia Lan didn't want to talk to her father on this issue, so she hurriedly said, "Dad, let's talk later in the evening."

"Who rescued you?"

"It was Qiuyu who saved me."

"It's him," Xia Chenghai asked in surprise: "Isn't that the little bodyguard I fired?"

When the firing matter was mentioned, Xia Lan was full of anger and said in a row: "It's not all you, I have to fire him, otherwise with him by my side, how could those robbers succeed? It's because you can't tolerate him, and the kidnappers succeed."

Xia Chenghai said in a deep voice: "Lanlan, the matter has not been finally figured out, so don't decide that Qiuyu is a good person. Be sure to stay away from him. Maybe he has an ulterior motive..."

These words were heard by the people around him, and they all looked surprised. Qiu Yu smiled bitterly. No matter how she did it, her parents would not accept me. Maybe this is the insurmountable gap between wealthy and poor families. I always feel that I have something to do.

Seeing the expression on Qiu Yu's face, Lin Xueshan was also very angry and muttered in a low voice: "What's going on with uncle? I can't tell whether a good person or a bad person."

Xia Lan was even more annoyed and said angrily: "Okay, stop talking. I am not a child. You can tell who is good and who is bad. That's it."

"Wait a minute..." Xia Chenghai said anxiously: "Your mother and I will fly to Jiangyang immediately. Then we will study what to do. You must remember that you must not get close to that boy Qiuyu..."

Xia Lan didn't like to listen, "I'll hang up first." No matter what her parents had to say, she hung up the phone and threw the phone on the coffee table angrily.

Lin Xueshan advised: "Lanlan, don't be angry. My uncle has a misunderstanding for the time being. I will clarify it in the future, just Xiaoyu, please take more responsibility."

Qiu Yu smiled generously, "It's okay, I'm used to it." Yes, I was fired last time, and I've long experienced the suspicion of Xia's parents. He has become immunized. "Then I'll give you this painting back."

Seeing that the ancient painting was handed over, Xia Lan was shocked. There were always people who were unrelated to come and snatch it. She was really afraid that she would get through this thing, and fear arose in her heart. She hurriedly said, "Don't, don't give me the painting, it's up to you to save it."

Considering the strangeness of the matter, if the treasure map is left in Xia Lan, it will continue to bring danger, Qiu Yu nodded, "Since that's the case, I will keep this painting first. After your parents come to Jiangyang, I will hand it over to your father and return it to Zhao in person."

Xia Lan agreed happily, and the servants dispersed everywhere, and there were no idle people waiting in the living room. Qiu Yu looked at the treasure map in his hand and said with a smile: "I have to hide this thing well. The responsibility is heavy. Lanlan, you have to rest more. I'll go back first. When your parents come, take the picture and return it to them."

"Why, don't you live here?" Xia Lan asked anxiously.

"No, I'm not your bodyguard now, and your father also objected to me being around you, so it's better not to let him misunderstand it. In addition, this ancient painting is easy to cause trouble, so it's better not to put it in the mansion."

Despite Qiu Yu's patient explanation, Xia Lan was still very dissatisfied. Of course, she mainly had objections to her father. However, Qiu Yu made up her mind and it was useless to express her objection. She could only ask the other party to come and visit her as much as possible.

When she heard that Qiu Yu was leaving, Lin Xueshan also advised her, but there was no result. At the same time, Elsa also said goodbye to leave and go around. Xia Lan hurriedly said, "Don't leave, stay at my house. I will take you out for sightseeing tomorrow or the next day."

Elsa responded with a smile, "No, your parents are here soon. Family reunion is more important than anything else. If I ask for a place to play, I can just let Qiuyu accompany me. He should be able to help."

Qiu Yu smiled and said, "Of course, I can't ask for helping the beautiful girl."

Xia Lan gave him a blank look and said angrily: "Tsk, I have known what kind of person you are for a long time. I can't walk when I see the beauty. Okay, Elsa will leave it to you, but I warn you that she is my good friend and you are not allowed to make ill plans."

"Shan, in your heart, I am such a person, no, right?" Qiu Yu said with a bitter face.

Lin Xueshan smiled and said, "It seems that we all know what kind of person you are."

Elsa smiled disapprovingly, "Don't worry, I'm not interested in Chinese men.
