After spending the morning getting to know Shen Du and the others, Yuanbao gradually became less of a stranger to them, and he was much more lively during lunch than when he first arrived.

At that moment, the TV on the wall of the suite was playing Paw Patrol, Yuanbao's favorite show. He was holding a slice of apple, nestled on the sofa next to his grandfather, leaning against him, his eyes fixed on the TV, occasionally taking a bite of the apple in his hand.

The old man looked at him with eyes full of affection that seemed to overflow, while Chen Du and Yan Sen sat to the side, discussing work matters in hushed tones.

After an episode of Paw Patrol ended, Yuanbao sighed slowly like a little adult, then rubbed his eyes and looked at the old man, saying, "Grandpa, I want to sleep."

Looking into his misty eyes, Grandpa Shen's heart had already melted. He quickly pulled the child closer and said, "Then why don't you sleep next to your great-grandfather?"

Yuanbao turned to look at Yan Sen, his expression already somewhat confused. He put the apple in his hand aside, turned around, and shrank into the old man's arms.

The little one was so soft and cuddly. The old man reached out and hugged the child tightly in his arms, his face filled with indescribable satisfaction, while he gently patted Yuanbao's back with one hand.

Yan Sen and Shen Du's conversation gradually stopped. He looked at Yuanbao in Old Master Shen's arms and said in a low voice, "I won't disturb your family reunion any longer. I have some things to do at the company. If the child is upset after waking up, contact me. If he's not upset, I'll come to pick him up later."

Chen Du stood up to see him out: "Thank you for your help today. Take care."

Yan Sen waved his hand: "Don't bother seeing me off, go back."

He had a good impression of Shen Du. The young man was capable and had even better skills than Old Master Shen. He had taken over the Shen family business at a young age and had managed to develop it to what it is today. His abilities were extraordinary, and he was already a standout among the younger generation.

Shen Du turned and went into the house, stood in front of Old Master Shen, and looked down at the child in his arms.

In just a few minutes, Yuanbao had fallen asleep. The tiny baby lay in the old man's arms, looking incredibly adorable.

The old man tidied Yuanbao's stray hairs and said gently, "Zhaozhao has taken good care of him."

Chen Du remained silent. The old man then said, "As long as they, mother and son, are doing well, I am at ease."

After a few seconds of silence, Shen Du said, "I'll take the child to bed. You should rest for a while too?"

Grandpa Shen nodded, watching Yuanbao being carried away by Chen Du with a loving expression, and couldn't help but say, "The child is still young and shy around strangers, so please be patient and coax him."

Shen Du's arms, which were already stiff as he held the child, stiffened even more. He nodded reluctantly before carrying the child into the house.

Yuanbao was sleeping soundly. He didn't even notice when Chen Du put him on the bed, and he mumbled as he turned over.

Looking at the tiny person lying on such a large bed, Shen Du's expression softened.

A moment later he got up and went outside. He had turned down a lot of work during his trip to B City, but there were some he just couldn't refuse.

The weather in City B was slightly cooler than in City A, but the sun was still particularly strong at two o'clock, and the temperature gradually rose. Fortunately, the air conditioning in the hotel was kept at a constant temperature, so Yuanbao didn't sweat even though he was covered with a blanket on the bed.

After an unknown amount of time, the little baby on the bed turned over and groggily opened his eyes.

The faint sound of a video conference could be heard from the cubicle outside the bedroom.

On the bed, Little Yuanbao stretched in an extremely strange posture, his big eyes glistening with tears.

He sat up in bed with dazed eyes, first looking around the room in a daze, then his gaze fell on Chen Du's back outside.

The cubicle was separated by transparent glass, and he could clearly see the backs of the people outside.

Yuanbao, who had been looking confused, suddenly became wrinkled and looked extremely anxious and worried, but he sat on the bed without moving.

At that moment, Shen Du was frowning as he listened to the person on the other end of the video call, completely unaware of the commotion inside the bedroom.

Little Yuanbao looked serious as he crept towards the bed, muttering something under his breath.

A moment later, he picked up the landline phone by the bed and dialed a number with great practice. A moment later, a female voice came from the other end of the line: "Hello, this is 110. What's wrong with you?"

Yuanbao, looking like a thief, shrank his neck and cautiously glanced at the outside world, whispering, "Auntie, I think I've been kidnapped."

...

After hanging up the phone, Yuanbao climbed back to his original spot, pulled the blanket over himself, closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep, but his eyelashes kept blinking.

When Chen Du had a moment to glance at Yuanbao, he saw that Yuanbao was asleep, but he didn't think much of it and continued with the video conference.

Half an hour later, there was a knock on the suite door.

"Hello, room service."

As soon as Butler Liu opened the door, he saw the waiter's standard smile and politely declined, saying, "I'm sorry, we don't need it at the moment."

The waiter wasn't angry; he simply said in a gentle tone, "Sir, there's a problem with our hotel's landline that needs some maintenance. Is now a convenient time?"

Butler Liu shook his head, thinking that the old man and the child were still resting, and said, "It's not convenient for the time being."

As he finished speaking and was about to close the door, several people suddenly rushed in from the side. Looking at their uniforms, he hurriedly asked, "What are you doing?"

To avoid disturbing the people resting inside, he deliberately lowered his voice.

No sooner had he finished speaking than someone grabbed his shoulder and whispered, "The police are investigating a case, please cooperate."

Upon hearing this, Butler Liu's expression turned slightly angry. He simply said, "Our old master and young master are resting. Please be quiet."

The uniformed staff members nodded and dispersed to different rooms.

Chen Du was speaking in a low voice when a man in a police uniform opened the door and came in. He frowned, but before he could speak, the man said, "Hello sir, are there any children in your room?"

Chen Du asked in a low voice, "Is something the matter?"

The officer explained, "It's like this, we received a call reporting that you're abducting children here..."

Shen Du frowned first, then turned to look at the child in the bedroom. He glanced at the police officer, then got up and pushed open the door to enter the bedroom.

The child on the bed trembled slightly when he heard someone open the door and come in, then tightly closed his eyes.

"Ye Siyi?" Shen Du called out in a deep voice.

Yuanbao's eyes were tightly closed, his eyelashes trembled incessantly, but he remained silent.

It wasn't until the policeman behind Shen Du whispered, "Little boy?"

Yuanbao on the bed suddenly opened his eyes and looked over, then rolled over and climbed off the bed, leaping into the policeman's arms with great agility.

"Officer, they're kidnapping children!"

Her voice was soft and gentle, but full of energy!
