Li Xia doesn't blame Xiao Yousheng.

She knew he must be anxious.

Seeing that she had not returned at the appointed time, he became worried about herself and wanted to find her, so he ran out alone.

Li Xia looked into the shopkeeper's eyes and asked with her mouth opened: "Shopkeeper, it's okay. As long as he comes back safe and sound, it's good. Is Xiao Yousheng in the room now? I'll go up to see him."

Xiao Yousheng waited in the room for so long but didn't see him. He must have been very worried and scared.

The shopkeeper nodded and said, "Yes, I asked a waiter to stay with him in the room. I was afraid that when no one was around, he would sneak out to look for you again."

Although the war has not yet spread to the city.

But he is a little child, and it would be very dangerous if he ran out alone.

"Thank you very much, boss." Li Xia pursed her lips, looked up at the shopkeeper, and thanked him.

If they weren't here today, I would be trapped there and wouldn't be able to come back for a while.

During such a long period of time, no one knew where Xiao Yousheng had gone.

He was a little kid, walking aimlessly on the road alone.

There is a high possibility that you will be targeted by people with bad intentions.

Little Yousheng has suffered so much since he was a child, and now he is finally feeling a little better.

If I were targeted by bad guys, my life might be worse than when I was in Nanzhou.

The shopkeeper raised his hand and waved, "Miss Li, it's just a small favor, not worth mentioning. You get up early and stay up late every day, busy making medicine, also for the people in the city. Besides, you live with me, even if you didn't specifically tell us, this is our job."

When Li Xia heard that Li Yousheng was in the room, she immediately took a step and walked quickly upstairs.

However, when he was about to enter the inn, he thought of Xiao Yihan who was outside.

She stopped, turned and walked towards Yingniang and the other two.

Li Xia turned her gaze to Wu Jing. She pursed her lips and looked up at him. "Little brother, Mr. Xiao, I'll trouble you and the female shopkeeper for a moment. I'll go upstairs to see my brother first. You follow the waiter to the newly opened room. I'll go to see You Sheng and get the things needed to suture the wound. I'll come back later."

"It's okay, Miss Li, go ahead." Xiao Yi opened his mouth and said, "I'm not in a hurry here, Miss Li, go check on your brother first. You've been out for so long, and if he sees that you haven't come back, he must be scared and will think of looking for you."

Xiao Yihe also heard clearly the conversation between the shopkeeper and Li Xia just now.

It’s not that he wants to be a mean person who eavesdrops on other people’s conversations.

It's just that his eyesight is not very good now, and they didn't speak in low voices, so he could easily hear them.

"Miss Li, don't worry, I'm here, just go ahead."

Yingniang handed the reins to the inn's waiter, who took the horse and tied it up.

She raised her eyes, looked at Li Xia, and spoke with her mouth open.

Li Xia bit her lower lip, nodded, and then walked into the inn.

“Squeak—”

"Yousheng, I'm back."

"Miss Li, great! You're finally back!"

Li Xia pushed open the door of the room, raised her eyelids, and looked for Li Yousheng.

The waiter who was watching Xiao Yousheng inside under the orders of the shopkeeper, turned around and walked up to her after seeing Li Xia, opening his mouth and speaking.

"Miss Li, the child is sleeping under the bed. I wanted to carry him out, but I was afraid that he would wake up if I carried him out. So I just stayed here to watch him and let him sleep under the bed."

The waiter saw that Li Xia was still looking for Li Yousheng. He pointed under the bed, blinked his eyes, opened his mouth, and told Li Xia where Li Yousheng was.

He had not spoken a word to them since they had brought the child back from the market.

They felt very strange and were wondering in their hearts whether Xiao Yousheng could speak.

Li Xia followed the direction the waiter pointed, squatted down, and looked under the bed.

Sure enough, she found little Yousheng curled up under the bed.

He was so small that he looked like a little hedgehog, and his whole body curled up into a ball.

This is a sign that Li Yousheng is very insecure.

Two days after Li Xia adopted him, little Yousheng would curl up into a small ball when he slept at night.

At that time, I put a lot of effort into telling him that I would never abandon him.

Gradually, Xiao Yousheng's condition improved.

Li Xia looked at him and felt as if she was back to the time when they first met. Her nose felt sore and her eyes became tearful.

"Okay, I know. Sorry to bother you. Go down and have a rest first. I'll be here."

Li Xia raised her head and calmed herself down.

She pursed her lips and opened her mouth to speak to the waiter.

"Yousheng, don't be afraid, I'll carry you back to bed to sleep."

After the waiter left, Li Xia gently carried Li Yousheng out from under the bed.

When she picked him up, he was still asleep, but his wrinkled face clearly expressed his disgust.

Li Xia quickly licked her lips and spoke to comfort him.

Maybe it was because I heard a familiar voice and felt a familiar embrace.

Li Yousheng quickly calmed down in her arms.

Li Xia gently put little Yousheng on the soft bed. Only then did she realize that there were two dried tear marks on his little face.
