He was powerless.
Unable to protect his child, he felt he had failed her and her expectations of him.
But Lin Xinlan had never blamed him; she even smiled while comforting him, telling him not to worry, to take it slow, after all, finding Xiaocong was not an easy task.
The more she said this, the more guilty he felt.
Yet he also knew that apart from continuing the search, there was nothing else he could do.
He swore that if he ever found out who had kidnapped Xiaocong, he would not let them off easily; he would make sure they paid a severe price!
As the days went by, Lin Xinlan didn't want to put more pressure on Rong Shaoze and seldom asked about the progress of the case.
Although her face carried a faint sadness, when it was time to speak or laugh, she would not act depressed.
Rong Shaoze thought her mood had improved a lot, which made him feel a bit better as well.
Only the two of them knew about Xiaocong's disappearance at home.
