The man was immediately silenced into a cold sweat. “Understood.”
However, his man’s words stayed on his mind.
He began to examine the child seriously, an act which was considered rare for him. Indeed, as what the henchman said, the boy’s eyes especially resembled his.
It would be natural to assume the boy to be his son if they were to go out together.
What a strange destiny.
The adult had the rare patience to ask the child, “What’s your name?”
Raising his head, the boy gave an inaudible reply with his mouth stuffed until it was bulging. “My name is Baby Chu!”
“I can’t hear you well.”
The kid immediately hugged the cola cup and took a big swig. After he flushed the food down his throat, he wiped his mouth and repeated with a smile, “My name’s ‘Baby Chu’, with a ‘baby’ and a ‘chu’ in it.”
The man’s expression sank.
Come again?
The boy’s naïve and childish explanation caused the people behind him to burst into giggles.
What a cute, little lad!
The moment he said that, as an afterthought, the lad came to a realization that he had given too much information. Looking like a frightened doe, he covered his mouth hurriedly in a fretful, disturbed fashion.
The man could not help asking, “What’s wrong this time?”
The kid put down his hand, looking a bit indecisive and chagrined. After mulling for some time, he innocently mumbled, “Mommy told me not to tell my name to outsiders!”
Gu Jinglian: “…”
The boy’s mannerism took a 180-degree turn all of a sudden as he smiled and said, “Still, uncle, you are so good to me. Not only are you sending me home, you’ve also brought me here each delicious food. That’s why telling you my name is no biggie!”
“I haven’t said anything about sending you home!” The adult corrected the child. “I only said that I’ll bring you to the police station.”
“After you send me to the police station, I’ll be able to get home, won’t I?” countered Baby Chu with a smile. “Uncle is a good man, and a good person will have a safe and peaceful, long life.”
“…” The man could only rub his glabella in resignation.
If he ever got married in the future, he would not want to have such a silly son.
The bodyguard standing beside them could not help teasing the boy. “Why are you alone? Where is your home?”
“My family is at…” The child opened his mouth, his gaze turning somewhat guarded, before he finally revealed it. “My family lives in Yan City.”
“Yan City?”
The few henchmen looked at one another; they had never heard of that place before.
“Where is Yan City?”
“In any case, it’s pretty far away.” The little fella felt deflated at this juncture. Putting away the half-chewed burger on his dinner plate, his expression sank somewhat. “My mommy must be worried sick.”
Gu Jinglian frowned.
Indeed, a child appearing in the middle of nowhere was very suspicious.
“How did you appear at that place then?”
Baby Chu let out a heavy sigh. “It’s a long story, but didn’t uncle tell me to be quiet, so I’d better not say anything.”
Gu Jinglian: “…”
He’s finally learned to shut up!
The boy had been chattering non-stop throughout their ride and seemed not to know when to keep quiet.
Obviously, the little fella was wary of him and did not want to divulge anything more.
He did not expect a boy at this age to be so guarded.
In the end, he sat quietly and watched the boy eat. The latter, like a hamster, swept clean like a tornado the two sets of kiddie meals and let out a satisfied burp!
Burp!
The man frowned.
