Chapter 511: This Generation of Parents Is Too Playful
On the road, Ye Xiu drove while chatting casually with Li Xinnan. He had her laughing so hard that her stomach hurt. She never expected Ye Xiu to be so amusing.
Passing by a supermarket, Ye Xiu parked the car.
He asked, “We’ve been talking the whole way. Are you thirsty? What do you want to drink?”
Li Xinnan was taken aback, shaking her head repeatedly, “No, it’s fine.”
“Come on, buying things won’t hinder your interview, right?” Ye Xiu smiled.
“Okay then.” Li Xinnan got out of the car.
At the supermarket, Ye Xiu grabbed a bottle of mineral water but bought Li Xinnan a cup of hot milk tea.
Li Xinnan was overjoyed, her gaze toward Ye Xiu constantly changing.
Handsome, rich, and so considerate~ He was truly a perfect idol~
With such a kind heart, no wonder so many people liked him~
Ye Xiu took a sip of water and then turned to head back to the car. At that moment, he suddenly heard an urgent call nearby: “Zhuangzhuang? Zhuangzhuang, where are you? Come out, don’t scare mom!”
Ye Xiu turned around and saw a middle-aged woman running out of the supermarket, her face full of anxiety, looking around frantically, seemingly… her child had gone missing?
As a modern, capable young man, how could he just sit by and do nothing?
Without hesitation, Ye Xiu turned around and approached her, asking, “Auntie, do you need help?”
The woman, with a worried expression, said, “I went in to buy things, and the child was still with me. When I turned around to pay, the child was gone. Can you help me look for him?”
“Sure, don’t worry. In such a short time, the child couldn’t have gone far. He must have just run off playing. Don’t panic too much. I’ll help you find him, and we will definitely find him.”
Seeing Ye Xiu’s confident and sunny assurance, the aunt’s heart relaxed a bit, nodding repeatedly.
Turning around, Ye Xiu took out his phone and called the head of his bodyguard team, who was secretly protecting him: “Check it out, just now a child left this supermarket. Find out where he went. Let me know as soon as you find him.”
After hanging up, he immediately began searching the area himself.
The efficiency of the bodyguard company was quite high. Soon, the phone rang back, and they sent Ye Xiu the address, replying, “Boss, the child is at this location.”
“Alright, keep an eye on him.”
Ye Xiu checked the location, which wasn’t far from the supermarket. He first found the woman, told her the location, and then they headed there together.
A few dozen meters away, next to a blue trash can, a little boy was crouching by the trash can, hugging it tightly. Many people were standing around, pointing and whispering.
“Whose child is this? Why is no one taking care of him? Hugging a trash can is so dirty.”
“Yeah, look at how the child is dressed, he doesn’t seem like he’s neglected. He must have gotten lost, right? Hey, the adults really should watch them better.”
“Don’t talk nonsense. Kids these days are so naughty, a little carelessness and they’re gone. It’s not the parents' fault.”
“Alright, I’ve already called the police. Let’s keep an eye on him so he doesn’t get lost again.”
“Right, let’s keep an eye on him.”
A group of kind-hearted people surrounded the boy in the center, but no one dared to pick him up. This was for two reasons:
Firstly, because the boy was hugging a trash can, which was a bit dirty.
Secondly, because the boy wouldn’t let them pick him up. Whenever someone tried, he would cry loudly, clinging to the trash can~~
So, they dared not approach and could only surround him to prevent him from running off again.
“Where is he? Where is he?”
Soon, the woman’s voice was heard from a distance.
Ye Xiu and Li Xinnan, along with the woman, arrived at the scene.
“Move aside, move aside.”
The woman hurriedly pushed through the crowd, seeing the boy sitting on the ground, hugging the trash can, tears of relief streaming down her face: “Zhuangzhuang, are you okay? You scared mommy to death!”
The little boy looked up, pitifully calling out, “Mommy.”
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. So, the boy’s mother had found him. That was a relief.
People started to say, “Thank goodness you found him. You really need to keep a close eye on him and not let him run off again. It’s quite dangerous.”
“Yes, yes, yes.” The woman smiled awkwardly and nodded repeatedly. “Thank you all so much.”
“Hmm, it’s nothing. Just a little help.” Everyone smiled warmly.
“Let’s go.”
The crowd was about to disperse.
Ye Xiu and Li Xinnan walked over. The woman squatted down, about to pick up Zhuangzhuang.
However, Zhuangzhuang suddenly turned his head away, stubbornly saying, “I don’t want to. I just want to hug it (the trash can). It’s the only thing that makes me feel warm!”
The woman: ???
Li Xinnan: ???
Ye Xiu: A trash can can give you warmth?
The crowd that had just dispersed turned their heads, looking at the child with curious and amused expressions.
It turned out not only was this kid a brat, but he was also quite cheeky.
They were ready to watch a joke.
The woman’s face turned slightly awkward.
Ye Xiu stepped forward, smiling and asked, “Can you tell me, little buddy, why you say the trash can gives you warmth?”
Zhuangzhuang, holding the trash can, glanced at Ye Xiu and said resolutely, “Because mommy told me I’m not her biological son!”
Swish swish swish!
The kind-hearted crowd turned their heads, their eyes filled with surprise. Not her biological son? This had some content? Should we keep watching?
The crowd instantly turned into gossipers~~
“Not her biological son?” Ye Xiu asked.
Zhuangzhuang nodded proudly, “Yes! Mommy said I was picked up from a trash can! So, I’m not her biological son. She’s not my real mom. The trash can is my home!”
Li Xinnan covered her mouth, stifling her laughter.
Ye Xiu clicked his tongue, “Wow, that was unexpected. I almost thought you weren’t her biological son.”
The woman’s face was stiff with awkwardness and a hint of anger. She glared at Zhuangzhuang, “Stop messing around, okay? Let’s go home.”
Zhuangzhuang immediately cowered, “Okay, mommy, don’t be angry. I was just copying others.”
Ye Xiu asked, “Others?”
Zhuangzhuang nodded, “Yes, before we left home, the nasty girl next door cried, saying she was a phone bill gift, and had already gone to the mobile office to find her mom.”
Hiss! There’s such a trick?
Ye Xiu was shocked.
Li Xinnan was already laughing so hard she bent over, her stomach aching. Who knew interviewing Ye Xiu would lead to such a thing? She was laughing so hard her tears were nearly coming out.
This generation of parents is too playful!
Hahahahahaha……ヾ(≧∇≦*)ヾ
