After Xi Wan and Gao Yuanyuan parted ways, Lu Zhou called Xi Wan and asked where she was.
Lu Zhou arrived at the location Xi Wan gave her. She happened to see Xi Wan standing there, watching a child cry.
âWanwan!â Lu Zhou ran over and pointed at the child. She asked, âWhat are you doing? Did you make him cry?â
Xi Wan shook her head.
At first, Xi Wan was just curious why he was crying alone here. However, as she watched, she realized that this child was very good-looking. Hence, she listened to him cry while staring at him.
âWhat should we do then? Should we ask him if he remembers his familyâs phone number or hand him over to the police directly?â Lu Zhou also stared at the kid.
âLet him cry a little longer.â Xi Wan looked at the child calmly, not anxious at all.
Although the child had been crying, he had been paying attention to this strange big sister. This beautiful big sister did not ask him why he was crying like the others did. Instead, she quietly watched him cry and even praised him for his good looks.
Hence, he had a good impression of this big sister. However, when he heard this big sisterâs words, he felt a lump in his throat as he cried.
When Xi Wan saw the child crying quietly and looking at her sadly, she said to
Lu Zhou in satisfaction, âLook, heâs not crying anymore. Hurry up and ask!â
She could not hide the excitement in her tone, and the child felt even more uncomfortable.
If he still couldnât tell that she had said that on purpose, he would write his name backwards!
Lu Zhou was also shocked by Xi Wanâs actions. She only came back to her senses after Xi Wan reminded her.
âLittle boy, whatâs your name? Do you remember your parents âphone number? We will help you call your parents and ask them to come and pick you up, okay?â
âI donât want to go home.â The little boyâs voice was nasal.
Lu Zhou continued speaking in a gentle tone, âBut itâs not safe for you to be here alone. Why donât I send you to the police station?â
There was a police station downstairs.
âIâm not going!â When the little boy heard Lu Zhouâs words, he ran behind Xi
Wan and hid.
Xi Wanâs lips curled up slightly as she said condescendingly to the little boy, âIf you run around like this, youâll be captured by human traffickers and sold to the mountains to be children for poor families who canât give birth.â
Although the little boy was young, his clothes were all from internationally renowned luxury brands and expensive childrenâs clothing line. Among them, the pair of exquisite leather shoes was a limited edition for this yearâs childrenâs clothing line. There were only ten pairs in the world.
The little boy raised his head and looked at her. He pursed his lips tightly and rolled his eyes non-stop. In the end, he turned his head away and said nothing.
Xi Wan laughed and raised her hand to pat his furry little head. âDo you want to go shopping? Carry our bags for us. Weâll treat you to ice cream.â
The little boy did not resist Xi Wanâs touch. After hearing her suggestion, the little boy nodded proudly.
âDeal. â
Just like that, Xi Wan and Lu Zhou brought the little one around with them for two hours. They visited almost all the clothing stores and jewelry stores.
Both of them had gained a lot. Other than the two light tote bags for the little boy, both of them had no less than five bags in their hands.
âThis is so satisfying!â Lu Zhou smiled happily.
âItâs been a long time since Iâve bought so many things. Unfortunately, there are too few new products that suit my eyes,â Xi Wan said regretfully. âLetâs go over there and have some snacks. We can replenish our strength and rest.â
âOkay!â
Xi Wan chose a snack bar that had milk tea, ice cream, and all kinds of cakes. The moment she entered, Xi Wan handed the menu to the little boy. âYou can choose whatever you want to eat. The only requirement is that you canât waste it. â
The little boyâs eyes lit up. He nodded and began to order his favorite food.
âSystem, do you know the identity of this little boy?â While the little boy was ordering, Xi Wan asked the system. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The system said lazily: [So, you still remember me. If you didnât ask me just now, I would have thought that you wanted to do things on your own!]
âI just wanted to go shopping. Now that Iâm done shopping, I can deal with other things, â Xi Wan said..
