“I’m going to go look for Little Bean.”
“Look for Little Bean?” Zhu Lingling was first taken aback but afterward, she immediately glared at Gao Ran.
“Why can’t you keep your big mouth shut, huh?”
“Sweety… I didn’t mean to… I didn’t think our son would react this way…”
“You idiot! I’m going to get you later…”
With that, Zhu Lingling rushed over to the door and stopped her son.
“Boyuan, where are you going to go to look for Little Bean?”
“Little Bean probably got lost… that’s why she can’t find her way back home. I know all the places she likes to frequent… the amusement park… the ice cream shop… the BBQ spot… she also likes cakes… and Hong Kong-style milk tea… steamed dumplings… shrimp dumplings… Anyway, I have to find her.”
“Baby, listen to Mommy… Little Bean’s not lost. She’s… probably kidnapped by bad people. You’re a child. You can’t even protect yourself, how could you protect Little Bean? Your daddy’s a policeman, and there are many brave police officers at the bureau. They will catch the bad guys for sure, okay?”
“Then tell Daddy to go find her now…”
“But your Daddy hasn’t eaten yet…”
“Once he finishes eating, it’ll be too late. Hurry up and go find her. Now!” Gao Boyuan was beyond scary when stubborn.
“Honey, what are you still waiting for? Hurry up and go!”
“But my noodles…” Gao Ran had worked hard all day and was starving. He looked at the cooked noodles pitifully.
“No time for noodles. Don’t you know what’s more important?” Zhu Lingling scolded.
“Um… alright then, I’ll go… I’ll head back to the bureau now.” Gao Ran got up and began walking out.
“Daddy…”
“Yes, Dear?” Gao Ran thought that his son was worried about his stomach and was having second thoughts… but…
“Daddy, you have to do everything to find them, got it? You have to find Little Bean and Pudding. Otherwise, how would Uncle Qin and Auntie Huo Mian live on?”
“Little rascal, you already know to worry about your in-laws,” Gao Ran joked.
He then grabbed his uniform and hurried downstairs.
“Baby, Daddy’s going to look for them. Don’t worry, let’s eat, okay?”
“Mommy, I’m not hungry. I don’t want to eat.”
With that, Gao Boyuan ran into the living room. He grabbed a small teddy bear from the top of a shelf that was left behind by Little Bean during her last visit.
Maybe it reminded him of a certain someone…
Gao Boyuan stared at the teddy bear, tears rolling down his face…
“Baby, baby, are you okay?” The sight of her crying son scared the wits out of Zhu Lingling.
“Mommy… will Little Bean be alright?”
“Honey, Little Bean will be alright. Your Uncle Qin’s very capable and everyone’s looking for them. I’m sure that they’ll be back in no time.”
“I really hope so.”
Gao Boyuan’s mood was low for the rest of the night. He wouldn’t eat, no matter how much Zhu Lingling coaxed.
Children were direct and innocent; their emotions were written all over their faces.
Seeing her son so worried about Little Bean, Zhu Lingling was both happy and sad.
She truly hoped that the incident would blow over soon and that the twins would return safely. Otherwise, it would truly be the end for Qin Chu and Huo Mian.
– The Wei Mansion –
“Son, it’s so late. Why aren’t you asleep yet? What are you doing downstairs?”
Jiang Xiaowei and Wei Liao were talking in the living room when Wei Yunchu walked downstairs in his pajamas.
“Mommy, Pudding’s missing, right?”
