At the entrance of Yaochi, a figure slowly walked out from the bushes nearby. His hair was messy, as if blown by the wind, and his face was covered with mud and dust, looking dirty, like a little beggar fleeing famine.
Su Yue saw this figure from a distance, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she walked forward quickly. When she got closer and saw the child's face clearly, joy surged in her heart like a tide - this was the Xiao Ning she had been looking for!
Su Yue opened her arms without hesitation and hugged Xiao Ning tightly, as if she was afraid that he would disappear again. She didn't care about the filth on Xiao Ning's body at all, and her heart was filled with excitement and joy of regaining what she had lost.
"Ning'er! Where have you been? We've been looking for you for a long time and we're almost going crazy!" Su Yue's voice trembled a little, and there were even tears in her eyes.
Xiao Ning lowered his head, seeming a little embarrassed to face Su Yue. He remained silent and did not answer Su Yue's question. Seeing this, Su Yue did not ask too many questions. She knew that Xiao Ning might have been frightened and needed some time to calm down.
So, Su Yue gently stroked Xiao Ning's hair and comforted her softly, "Don't be afraid, Ning'er, your sister is here. Let's go home first, take a good shower, and change into clean clothes."
After saying that, she gently picked up Xiao Ning, turned around and left the place.
At the same time, on the other side, Chu Qian and Leng Qingqiu were still anxiously looking for Xiao Ning's trace. They had been looking for most of the day, but still found nothing, and their worries were getting heavier and heavier.
Suddenly, Leng Qingqiu's communication disc made a crisp sound. Her heart tightened, and she quickly reached out to take out the disc. When she opened it, it turned out to be a message from Su Yue.
"Sect Master, Ning'er has been found! She is now in Senior Sister Chu's room!"
This sudden surprise finally made Leng Qingqiu feel relieved. She felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her body, as if all the strength in her body had been drained away at this moment. Her body involuntarily collapsed and she sat down on the ground.
Chu Qian, who was standing by, was startled when she saw this. She quickly squatted down and asked with concern, "What's wrong, Qiu'er? What happened? Don't scare me, Senior Sister!"
Leng Qingqiu's eyes were already wet, tears pouring out like a flood. She choked up and said, "Senior Sister, I found Ning'er! I found her!"
Chu Qian was instantly excited when she heard this. She couldn't wait to grab Leng Qingqiu's shoulders and asked anxiously:
"Really? Where is Ning'er? Tell me now!"
Leng Qingqiu took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, and then told Chu Qian that Xiao Ning was in her room.
Chu Qian stood up without saying a word, pulled Leng Qingqiu and ran to her room.
On the other side, Su Yue was carrying Xiao Ning into the room. She told her men to boil some hot water. However, before she finished her words, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the door. Then, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Chu Qian rushed in like a gust of wind.
Her eyes fell directly on Xiao Ning, and she saw that he was dirty and his clothes were tattered. Chu Qian felt distressed, and without any hesitation, she flew towards Xiao Ning like a lioness protecting her cubs, hugged him tightly, and cried:
"Ning'er! You scared me to death! Where did you go?"
Xiao Ning was hugged tightly by Chu Qian, as if she wanted to rub him into her body, making it almost impossible for him to breathe. His little face turned red because of holding his breath, and his lips turned a little purple. He couldn't say a word and could only make a "woohoo" sound.
Just when Xiao Ning felt that he was about to suffocate, Leng Qingqiu noticed his abnormality. She hurried forward, stretched out her hand to hold Chu Qian's arm, and said, "Senior Sister, you are holding too tight! Ning'er can't breathe!"
Chu Qian turned around as if she had just woken up from a dream when she heard Leng Qingqiu's words. Her eyes were a little dazed, as if she had not yet completely recovered from her emotions. After a long while, she realized that her behavior was a bit too much, and quickly loosened her arms.
Xiao Ning, who regained his freedom, gasped for breath like a fish out of water, his chest heaving violently, his face still flushed. Chu Qian felt guilty when she saw this. She reached out her hand and gently wiped the spider webs and branches off Xiao Ning's head, and asked softly:
"Ning'er, have you been kidnapped by some bad guy? Tell mother quickly, and I will cut him into pieces!"
Xiao Ning relaxed in Chu Qian's arms for a long time before slowly raising his head. When his eyes met Chu Qian's, a look of shame suddenly appeared on his face, and then he quickly lowered his head like a child who had done something wrong, his voice as low as a mosquito's hum:
"I...was not abducted. I wanted to leave on my own..."
This sentence was like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, exploding in Chu Qian's ears. Her face instantly became extremely gloomy, and her originally beautiful face was now filled with anger and disappointment.
She grasped Xiao Ning's collar tightly, her fingers turning slightly white from the force.
"You little rascal! You've learned to run away from home now, right? Do you know how worried I am about you? Everyone in Yao Chi has been looking for you, but you run away from home on your own! I'll beat you to death!"
Chu Qian's voice was trembling with anger, and her chest was rising and falling violently, obviously she was very angry. As she spoke, Chu Qian raised her right hand without hesitation and swung it fiercely towards Xiao Ning.
At this critical moment, Leng Qingqiu and Su Yue rushed over quickly and blocked Chu Qian's palm in time, thus saving Xiao Ning from physical pain.
