Hearing the door close, Ye Xun heaved a sigh of relief.

His shoulders slumped as he walked to the bed and sat down hard.

“They’re finally out! Phew!” Ye Xun grabbed his bathrobe and wiped the sweat off his palms.

“This is much harder than lying to Mom and Grandma!” Ye Xun said as he took off his bathrobe.

He walked to a large wardrobe and opened it. He sighed when he saw all the black and white clothes inside.

He pulled open the drawer and saw that there were briefs inside. They were also black and white…

Ye Xun sighed again and picked up a pair of white briefs.

He put on his clothes and walked out of the room.

He walked in the direction of the living room and stood by the fence on the second floor. He saw Butler Qin speaking respectfully to that “grandma”.

Ye Xun walked down the stairs to his “grandma”.

Lu Ru saw Ye Xun’s wet hair and stood up from the sofa.

Ye Xun was shocked and subconsciously took two steps back.

Lu Ru was heartbroken.

“What’s wrong? What’s wrong with this child? Did he get a shock when she was outside?” Lu Ru asked as her heart ached. She went forward and pulled Ye Xun into her arms.

Ye Xun wanted to struggle, but on second thought, since he had promised his benefactor that he would help. He had to endure it.

He sulked in Lu Ru’s arms. “Someone carried a boy away just now.”

“That little boy kept struggling. I was so scared,” Ye Xun said, sounding aggrieved and afraid.

When Lu Ru heard that, she patted Ye Xun’s head with heartache. “Don’t be scared, don’t be scared! It’s fine now that we are home!”

“You can’t run out alone like this again!”

“If you really get lost, Grandma will be devastated!”

Ye Xun acknowledged obediently before looking up at Lu Ru. “Grandma, I’m scared.”

Lu Ru looked at Ye Xun’s rare expression of being wronged and her heart softened.

“Let’s go! Granny will dry your hair first. Don’t catch a cold!” Lu Ru said as she pulled Ye Xun upstairs.

Walking past Butler Qin, Lu Ru paused for a moment before saying, “He still has the mood to socialize after losing his son!”

“Tell him to come and look for me when he comes back tonight!” Lu Ru said as she snorted viciously before leading Ye Xun upstairs.

When they arrived at Qi Chen’s room, Lu Ru blew dry Ye Xun’s hair personally and even asked if he was feeling unwell.

Ye Xun sat by the bed and quietly enjoyed Lu Ru’s service. He was overjoyed.

Even though her mother would also take care of him like this, her mother still needed to look after his grandma most of the time. To reduce his mother’s burden, Ye Xun took care of himself most of the time.

…

Qi Chen carried his small bag and followed the path Ye Xun had pointed out to him to find his “mother.”

When Ye Xun heard that Qi Chen was leaving home, he generously decided to lend his mother to Qi Chen temporarily.

Although Qi Chen had politely declined Ye Xun’s offer at the start, he agreed half-heartedly on Ye XUn’s insistence. Moreover, he wanted to experience the feeling of having a mother.

Qi Chen thought about how he would find his “mother”. He had been independent since he was young, so he could make his own decisions. Although Ye Xun gave him his “mother’s” number and his godmother’s address,Qi Chen still chose to go with his own method.

He stood rooted to the ground, whipped out his phone, and dialed 110.

Soon, a police car drove over.

“Little friend, what’s the matter? Did you get lost?” the policeman asked with concern when he saw Qi Chen.

Qi Chen nodded. “This is my mother. I can’t find her!”

Qi Chen handed the phone number to the police. Although the policeman was puzzled, he still called the number.

No one picked up the call. The policeman looked helplessly at Qi Chen. “Little friend, your mother’s number can’t be reached now. Why don’t you come back to the police station with us first?”

Qi Chen nodded and walked into the police car.

Ye Shu and Mu Xiao chatted until it was almost seven in the evening. Just as they were about to call Lu Fen to ask about Ye Xun’s homework, they realized that their phones had been on silent mode.

Not only that, she had received a few missed calls from Ye Xun. There were also a few missed calls from callers she did not recognise..
