Chapter 370
Hong Baobao simply cooked porridge, which is actually quite simple. She has cooked porridge several times before and is quite familiar with it.
She prepared everything she needed to do, and after putting the rice in the pot to cook, she stopped watching and went to Jing Pei's side to talk to him.
Hong Baobao has always felt that she is not particularly clingy, but now, she doesn't know why, but she just feels that she is very clingy.
However, when she asked Jingpei if she was clingy, Jingpei told Hong Baobao that she wasn't clingy at all.
This is understandable, after all, Jing Pei is more than happy that Hong Baobao can be very clingy.
In Jing Pei's opinion, the best scenario would be for Hong Baobao to stick to him every day and every moment, which would naturally make him extremely happy.
Hong Baobao secretly went to see Jing Pei after breakfast in the morning, so no one in the family knew that Hong Baobao had gone out. They originally thought that Hong Baobao was in her room at the moment, probably watching TV or doing other things.
Unexpectedly, at noon, Zhang Ma prepared the meal and went to Hong Baobao's room to knock on the door. She knocked for a while, but Hong Baobao did not open the door.
After Zhang Ma went downstairs and told Hong Yuan, Hong Yuan went upstairs to call Hong Baobao.
When Shen Ke and Shen Quan heard Zhang Ma say that Hong Baobao wouldn't open the door, they couldn't help but exchange a glance.
Clearly, these two had considered one possibility.
After all, they weren't always sitting downstairs, so if Hong Baobao were to go out from here, they might not even see her.
However, this is just their speculation at the moment. We'll have to wait until Hong Yuan goes up and see for herself to know for sure.
As for Hong Yuan, since Zhang Ma had gone upstairs to call Hong Baobao and said that Hong Baobao wouldn't open the door, she specifically took the spare key from Hong Baobao's room when she went upstairs.
After Hong Yuan went upstairs, she knocked on the door several times and called out to Hong Baobao several times, but Hong Baobao never opened the door.
Hong Yuan was getting worried about Hong Baobao because she couldn't wait for her to open the door.
So Hong Yuan simply used the spare key to open the door.
Hong Yuan never even considered that Hong Baobao wasn't in the room. It was only when she opened the door and saw that the room was empty that Hong Yuan realized that Baobao wasn't actually in the room.
No wonder, she and Zhang Ma knocked on the door for a long time, but Hong Baobao never opened it.
Hong Baobao isn't in her room, so where did she go?
Just as Hong Yuan was thinking this, she suddenly saw the window.
The window was open, but the door was locked.
If the baby went out through the door, the door definitely wouldn't be locked from the inside. No matter how she thought about it, she was convinced that the baby must have gone out through the window.
But the window is so high, how did the baby get down there?
Hong Yuan went to the window and looked down. She saw that there wasn't even a rope for people to get down, which made her even more puzzled.
If she wasn't mistaken, then the baby must have gone down from here.
Could it be that the baby jumped straight down from here?
Well, no matter how hard she tried, that was all she could think of. She felt there was a high probability that the baby had jumped from there.
Hong Yuan did not stay in Hong Baobao's room any longer, but went downstairs directly.
When Hong Yuan came downstairs, she didn't look too good.
When Shen Ke and Shen Quan saw Hong Yuan come down alone, and that her complexion wasn't particularly good, they knew that their previous guesses were correct.
It's obvious that the baby is no longer in her room.
After sitting down at the dining table, Hong Yuan called Hong Baobao.
Hong Baobao had been staying with Jing Pei the whole time, and she had completely forgotten that she had secretly slipped out of her room today.
If she hadn't received Hong Yuan's call, she wouldn't have remembered that she had sneaked out.
Because Hong Baobao was in Jing Pei's arms, Jing Pei naturally saw Hong Baobao's phone screen.
Seeing that Hong Baobao wasn't answering the phone, he couldn't help but ask, "Baobao, why aren't you answering Mom's call?"
Jingpei usually refers to Hong Yuan as "Mom" to Hong Baobao.
Hong Baobao never minded the title, because in her own opinion, it was perfectly fine for Jing Pei to call Hong Yuan "Mom".
It was only after Jing Pei asked that Hong Baobao said somewhat embarrassedly, "I ran away secretly. My parents don't know I went out."
Now Jingpei finally understood why Hong Baobao hadn't answered Hong Yuan's calls for so long—it turned out Hong Baobao had sneaked out!
"Baby, you should answer the phone, otherwise Mom will worry."
Hong Baobao agreed. She had run away from home without saying a word, which was wrong of her. If she didn't answer the phone, her family would definitely worry.
Just as Hong Baobao was thinking, her hand had already pressed the phone screen and answered the call.
After the call connected, Hong Yuan only asked where Hong Baobao was, then told Hong Baobao that she wanted to have dinner, and then told Hong Baobao to go back first.
After hanging up the phone, Hong Baobao said directly to Jing Pei, "Peipei, let's go home."
Jing Pei naturally had no objections, so the two of them went to the Shen family.
Because the two families lived close by, they arrived at the Shen family's house in just a short while.
Upon arriving at the Shen family home, Hong Baobao and Jing Pei immediately attracted several pairs of gazes, none of which were very friendly.
At this moment, the Shen family had only one thought in their minds: daughters really are not meant to stay at home once they grow up.
After Hong Yuan asked Hong Baobao and learned that Hong Baobao had indeed jumped out of the window, she said a few words to Hong Baobao.
In the end, all she wanted to say was that Hong Baobao would never do such dangerous things again.
After all, there's quite a distance between the second floor and the first floor, and jumping down like that would be very dangerous.
As for Hong Baobao, she naturally agreed repeatedly and promised that she would never do such a thing again.
After the family finished lunch, Hong Yuan suddenly brought up another matter.
The matter that Hong Yuan mentioned is still closely related to Hong Baobao and Jing Pei.
Hong Yuan said that after the Spring Festival, she would let the two of them go directly to get their marriage certificate.
