Surrounded by the Billionaire's Deep Doting

Chapter 1038 - 700: A Pair of Eyes Behind

"Teacher Jiang, my child is only three years old. Don’t you think if someone wanted to deceive these two children, it would be incredibly easy?"

"..."

"Were you really just careless, or..."

"Mrs. Yin! Are you suspecting that I’m in cahoots with those criminals?"

Su Xiaomeng stared intently at this young female teacher, whose face was red with anger. She didn’t respond to her question but continued,

"At least, the composite sketch you provided to the police based on your memory is significantly different from the actual person."

After speaking, Su Xiaomeng walked right past Jiang Huan.

Jiang Huan stood there, quickly reaching out to grab Su Xiaomeng,

"Mrs. Yin, what you’re saying is really troubling me."

"How so?"

"The area is surrounded by police. Your two children might have been kidnapped by criminals. The police are racing against time to investigate the case. What you’re saying might make the police mistakenly think..."

"Teacher Jiang Huan, are you very afraid of being questioned by the police? Or perhaps, afraid of being suspected by them?"

"..."

Su Xiaomeng looked at her intently,

"To be honest, I was just testing you. But seeing your panicked reaction, it seems I might have guessed right?"

Jiang Huan’s expression froze unexpectedly.

This time, Su Xiaomeng didn’t push her further but suddenly chuckled lightly,

"Just kidding, Teacher Jiang, don’t be nervous."

"..."

Jiang Huan couldn’t laugh at all.

Su Xiaomeng withdrew her gaze, gently freeing her arm from Jiang Huan’s grip without saying anything else, and walked straight to the door. As she walked, she placed her phone to her ear, continuing the conversation with Yin Shixiu,

"It’s that new teacher... their surname is Jiang. I don’t know if I’m just overthinking it, but I feel there’s something wrong with this teacher."

Su Xiaomeng shared with Yin Shixiu her unsettling feelings about Jiang Huan.

The call was still connected; Yin Shixiu could hear the conversation between Su Xiaomeng and Jiang Huan earlier.

"This teacher... might indeed have a problem."

"..."

Su Xiaomeng hadn’t expected Yin Shixiu would agree with her feelings.

"Have you talked to Uncle about this teacher?"

Yin Shixiu asked further.

Su Xiaomeng, still in the kindergarten, whispered,

"I spoke to Uncle privately. Uncle thinks it’s unlikely, but it doesn’t hurt to test a little."

"So you were testing her just now?"

"Yes, if Teacher Jiang truly has a problem, she’ll surely make a move. Uncle has already assigned an officer to secretly monitor the teacher."

"...Indeed, it’s worth trying."

Yin Shixiu agreed with the action Su Xiaomeng and Bai Sidong had taken after their discussion.

An excellent early childhood education teacher, capable of directly taking a position at Peony Kindergarten, allowed two children to be taken away by a stranger...

While it could be understood as a moment of negligence, it just... feels like something is a bit off.

For example...

This young female teacher clearly seemed wary of the man wanting to take Shuangshuang and Huang Huang, which is why she made the young man call the so-called father of the children and then let the children confirm if the voice was really Yin Shixiu’s on their own.

During this, Jiang Huan didn’t proactively communicate with the so-called "father of the children," only relying on the judgment of three-year-old children to make a decision.

This kind of vigilance felt more like a show for others rather than genuinely protecting the children’s safety.

The kindergarten isn’t large; it’s really only a few steps from the classroom door to the kindergarten entrance.

If the teachers were genuinely wary of the parents coming to pick the children up, they should have escorted the two children to the entrance.

Especially since the director mentioned the telephone scam incident at the nearby elementary school last year.

The most dissonant aspect for Su Xiaomeng was that composite sketch.

Su Xiaomeng unusually remembered Shi Xiaohai and Shi Xiaoyang’s appearance, which is why she had such a strong impression when watching the surveillance.

However, when the composite sketch came out, it looked vastly different from their real appearance.

Of course, it might just be that she was overthinking everything.

The situation was too urgent, making her sincerely hope that this teacher had a problem, so...

They would immediately have another lead.

Meanwhile, behind Su Xiaomeng, a pair of eyes were indeed watching her...

Jiang Huan stood at the classroom door, watching Su Xiaomeng walk out of the kindergarten while taking the call, before getting into the car driven by the driver who brought her.

Once the car had driven away, Jiang Huan shifted her gaze and politely asked the police officer,

"May I leave now?"

The officer nodded,

"You can leave after you leave your contact information. If we need anything for the investigation later, we hope you’ll cooperate."

"Okay, definitely, definitely. I hope you can save those two lovely children. They’re the first batch of children I’ve taught..."

"We’ll do our best."

A police officer told Jiang Huan.

Jiang Huan sniffed, then lowered her head and slumped a little as she walked dispiritedly to the parking lot, got in her car, and left the kindergarten.

She put on her sunglasses, pursed her lips, and, wearing a Bluetooth headset, dialed a call.

After two rings, the call was answered,

"What’s the situation now?"

"That Su Xiaomeng is really terrifying. I don’t understand why she’s so fixated on me."

"What? Are they suspecting you?"

"It’s hard to say. Maybe since her two kids are missing, she’s suspicious of everyone."

Jiang Huan said somewhat irritably, sighed, and then asked,

"How about you all? Have you left the city border? The police here must have taken action already. Also, I have some bad news."

"What?"

"I overheard Su Xiaomeng talking to her husband on the phone. It seems like they know it was you who took the children..."
