Suddenly, an idea came to him.
However, he only considered this plan for a moment before secretly shaking his head.
Because he felt that would be even more embarrassing.
"Mother..." Gu Xiaoran pouted, her aggrieved look in her eyes was genuine.
"Little beggar, give me back my eggs!"
Sudden,
An old woman rushed towards them, barging in and causing a ruckus.
Upon seeing this, the girl dropped the cart and ran away.
Gu Xiaoran... turns out to be a beggar.
"Oh, so you stole these eggs."
They should have untied him; instead, they just left him and ran away.
He watched helplessly as the old woman drew closer and closer, until finally, he rushed up to her.
"This, this, this..." Upon seeing Gu Xiaoran covered in egg yolk, she was so angry that she sat down on the ground.
"The eggs are gone? The eggs are gone... My family depends on these eggs to survive... What are we going to do now? Oh, my life is so hard..."
"Grandma, no, sister, my mother is very rich. If you take me back, she will give you money."
As Gu Xiaoran spoke, her eyes darted around.
The old woman was stunned. She was quite old, and this was the first time a little child had ever called her "sister."
Just as she was wondering where Gu Xiaoran's mother was, she suddenly felt her hand loosen.
While the old woman was pondering, Gu Xiaoran had already untied the ropes herself, and then, just like the little beggar from before, she ran away.
He didn't want to be mistaken for a thief.
The old woman was caught off guard and became so angry that she trembled all over.
"stop!"
She glanced at the cart, then at Gu Xiaoran, and finally threw the cart aside and strode after her.
"Stop, stop, you little beggar, you owe me eggs..." She believed that Gu Xiaoran was in cahoots with that little beggar.
Gu Xiaoran ran very fast, suddenly...
Thump, head hit—
Gu Xiaoran suddenly looked up.
He saw his mother standing in front of him with a cold face, without any warning.
Behind them, Qin Susu and his Lightning followed.
When Qiu Yan saw Gu Xiaoran covered in egg white and slurry, being fiercely chased by the woman,
Her blood pressure spiked a little.
She involuntarily pursed her lips, her facial expression incredibly complex.
No wonder he's so good at hiding; with his swift, swift steps and his incredibly easy-to-conceal figure, finding him would be extremely difficult.
"Mother... Mother."
"Little beggar, I've finally caught you!" the old woman said angrily, her hands reaching out to grab Gu Xiaoran's arms.
"Who are you kidding? Who calls every stranger 'Mom'?"
This girl doesn't look like a mother at all.
But at that very moment,
Xuanming Xuanying suddenly appeared and stood in front of her.
The old woman was startled; it turned out that a family member had indeed come.
The old woman bent her knees and sat down on the ground again, beginning to cry and sing.
"In broad daylight, is there no justice left... Your child and that brat stole my eggs together, aren't you going to do anything about it...?"
Her tearful complaint gave Xuanming and Xuanying a headache, and they both distanced themselves.
Anyone who didn't know better would think they were bullying her.
It's no wonder they were late; blame it on the fact that the young master was surrounded by enemies.
They were stopped in their tracks as soon as they arrived.
Just after we cleaned up everyone who might have harmed our young master, he disappeared in the blink of an eye. So, we started searching for him immediately.
They felt that having only the two of them by the young master's side was far from enough.
Who knew that even after finding his parents, the young master would still be so restless.
Gu Xiaoran's face paled for a moment upon hearing this.
He shouted angrily at the old woman:
"I didn't steal it!"
...
In the end, Qiu Yan was forced to pay the old woman some copper coins.
