The shop assistant was startled when she burst through the door.
Did you leave anything behind?
Su Yan asked urgently, "The little girl who was with me just now, has she come back?"
The shop assistant looked blank and shook his head.
"No."
This sentence made Su Yan even more flustered.
"Xiaoyu, where did Xiaoyu go?"
Seeing her pacing anxiously, almost to the point of tears, the shop assistant quickly said, "I'll help you look for her; she shouldn't have gone far."
The three of them rushed out of the cake shop and searched for Su Xiaoyu in the vicinity.
Zhao Bo walked out of a gold and jewelry store near the mall, his face beaming with excitement as he held an exquisite box in his hand.
He had just carefully packed the box when he looked up and saw the little girl walking across from him with her head down.
Zhao Bo was stunned. He rubbed his eyes hard and looked again. Who else could that little girl be but Su Xiaoyu?
"Su Xiaoyu!"
He shouted.
It would have been better if he hadn't shouted, because as soon as he did, Su Xiaoyu saw him and turned and ran away.
"Su Xiaoyu!!"
Zhao Bo panicked and ran across the road while shouting Su Xiaoyu's name.
The shopping mall is located in a busy downtown area, and there are quite a few vehicles passing by on this road.
Zhao Bo suddenly darted out onto the road, causing all the drivers to slam on their brakes.
With a creak, the car came to a halt in front of Zhao Bo.
Not only was Zhao Bo stunned, but even the driver was terrified and started swearing at him as soon as he rolled down the window.
Zhao Bo turned his head and saw that Su Xiaoyu was running further and further away. Without thinking, he bent down and apologized twice before rushing to the other side of the road and chasing after Su Xiaoyu's back.
He used all his strength to catch up with Su Xiaoyu, grabbed her by the back of the neck, and lifted her up like a chick.
"Su Xiaoyu!!!"
Zhao Bo spat out the name through gritted teeth; he was now seething with hatred for Su Xiaoyu.
What sins did he commit in his past life to run into such a nemesis like her in this life?
Zhao Bo dragged her to a bench and sat her down, keeping a close watch on her and interrogating her like a criminal.
"Why did you run away when you saw me? Who brought you here? Why are you here all alone?"
Su Xiaoyu remained silent in the face of his barrage of questions, adhering to the principle that silence is golden.
Zhao Bo thought she really looked like a female soldier from the Anti-Japanese War era; she was unyielding and wouldn't open her mouth.
"Su Xiaoyu, you ran away all by yourself, aren't you afraid of being kidnapped by bad people?"
Su Xiaoyu gave him a look that said, "Do you think I'm like you?" Zhao Bo felt deeply insulted.
He wanted to abandon her and turn away, but when he stood up, he couldn't move his legs.
Zhao Bo sighed in relief, then gritted his teeth and sat down again.
"Even if you're not afraid of being taken away by bad people, you should think about the person who brought you out! If they find you're gone, won't they be frantic with worry? Why are you such a troublesome child!"
After he finished speaking, Su Xiaoyu's expression clearly turned ugly.
Zhao Bo was even more puzzled. He looked down at her and continued to ask, "What's wrong? Why are you throwing a tantrum? Did someone bully you?"
Su Xiaoyu's lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but after a moment, she stopped.
Zhao Bo stared at her, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back, his curiosity completely piqued.
Who has such power to make this little brat, who never suffers a loss, suffer injustice?
He pressed on, saying, "Tell me, and I'll back you up and help you solve it!"
Su Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at him, as if to confirm whether his words were true or false.
Seeing that things were looking promising, Zhao Bo immediately patted his chest and assured him, "Tell me, no matter what, I'll help you. I'll always be on your side."
Su Xiaoyu lowered her eyes, slowly raised her small hand, touched her flat little belly, and uttered two words: "Hungry."
Zhao Bo was stunned for a moment, then immediately went berserk.
"What the hell?!"
Su Xiaoyu looked up at him expectantly and repeated herself.
I'm hungry.
Zhao Bo was so angry with her that his head was throbbing and his temples were throbbing.
What did he do wrong? Why is he being tortured like this?
Zhao Bo took a deep breath and patiently asked, "What would you like to eat?"
Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoyu's face lit up.
"Hamburger!"
Seeing that she shouted it out without any hesitation, Zhao Bo deeply suspected that her previous hesitation was all a trap he was setting for her!
"Okay, I can take you to get a hamburger. But can you tell me who you came out with? If you disappear like this, that person will definitely be scared and call the police."
Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoyu's face fell again. She remained silent for a long time before finally uttering the word "Mom".
Zhao Bo wanted to applaud her when he heard this; what a master at tricking her mother!
He didn't bother to ask why, and immediately took out his phone to call Su Yan.
Su Yan searched everywhere but couldn't find Su Xiaoyu. Suddenly, she thought of the panic she felt four years ago when she had just given birth, and the fear of losing her child overwhelmed her again.
Just as she was about to call the police, she received a call from Zhao Bo.
As soon as the call connected, Zhao Bo immediately said urgently, "Hey Su Yan, don't worry, Xiao Yu is with me. She's fine, don't worry."
Upon hearing this, Su Yan's legs went weak, and she could no longer stand.
