Chapter 6 I've been waiting for a long time, Shang Youqing, you finally came
Shang Youqing looked down at the young master squatting under the iron shed, then looked around and didn't see anyone else.
So his gaze returned to the young master. Just as he was about to ask a question, the little guy suddenly sneezed. His eyes were red, and he looked like a wilted rice cake, looking even more pitiful.
Shang Youqing stretched out his hand.
My original intention was to take the little guy's hand and bring him back to the garden to make plans.
But He Zhimo was a young master who was used to a life of luxury. Seeing this, he naturally handed the schoolbag in his arms to her, then opened his two little hands, ready to be picked up by Shang Youqing.
“…”
After a few seconds of silence, Shang Youqing had no choice but to take the schoolbag and pick up the noble young master.
The human cub's body was also very soft. Perhaps it had stayed under the shed for too long. The little guy's hands and feet were colder than she had imagined, and even the little face pressed against her shoulder and neck was a little damp and cold.
"Young Master He, how did you get here?"
On the way back from the east gate, Shang Youqing held him in one hand, carried his schoolbag and opened the umbrella in the other hand. He couldn't help but turn his head to look at the little guy lying on his neck and asked.
He Zhimo was already feeling somewhat unwell. His thick, curled eyelashes drooped listlessly beneath his eyelids. His face was pale, yet he clung to Shang Youqing's neck with an especially weak and clinging expression. He muffled his response, "I came here by car."
Shang Youqing paused, "Yourself?"
The young master thought Shang Youqing was trying to praise him, so his eyes brightened slightly and he emphasized in a soft, hoarse voice, "This is the first time I've ridden in a car by myself."
As he spoke, he sneezed again. He rubbed his nose bravely and huddled even harder into the crook of Shang Youqing's neck, mumbling, "But the zoo is closed. I've been waiting here for a long time, Shang Youqing, and you finally came."
"...I'm sorry, young master. I didn't know you would come over to play."
As they were talking, Shang Youqing brought the young master back to the courtyard. Because Shang You was still sleeping in the inner room, Shang Youqing carried He Zhimo to the small sofa chair in the living room and went to get a basin of hot water.
After wringing out the towel, Young Master He, who was sitting upright on the sofa, raised his chin and closed his eyes, acting like a man who was used to being pampered at home.
Shang Youqing suppressed his laughter and wiped the young master's face. He also put his two little hands into the basin to rinse them clean, and dried the little guy's wet hair a little.
It just so happened that when Shang Youqing and I went out shopping today, we also bought some bread. Shang Youqing went to get some and said, "Young Master, would you like to eat something to fill your stomach first?"
He Zhimo's dried hair was soft and obediently stuck to his forehead. At this moment, his beautiful big eyes seemed to be eager to stick to Shang Youqing. Seeing that Shang Youqing had specially prepared so much food for him, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he took it with a proud "hmm", holding a big piece of bread and began to eat it slowly.
Shang Youqing held his face and looked at him for a while, making sure that the young master had no other problems for the time being. Then he picked up his mobile phone, walked outside the yard, and called the housekeeper Chen at Bindao Yanyuan.
Meanwhile, Hamajima.
The entire Yanyuan was in chaos because of the disappearance of Young Master He.
Butler Chen watched as Mr. He, who had rushed back from other places, contacted Ning City to look for someone, and temporarily asked Yu Zhu to apply for a flight route, making it clear that he wanted to go to Ning City in person to find his son immediately.
And at this critical juncture, Butler Chen received a call from Shang Youqing.
Butler Chen walked out to the corridor with a solemn expression, holding his phone. After hearing clearly what Shang Youqing said on the other end of the line, he was stunned for a moment and visibly breathed a sigh of relief. "Oh, so the young master is with Miss Shang now, right? Is the young master okay? Did he get frightened?"
"Yes, I just arrived here not long ago. I got caught in the rain a bit, nothing else happened."
Shang Youqing glanced inside the half-open door. The little fellow was still gracefully munching on his bread, his two short legs dangling from the sofa, swaying gently. He didn't look frightened at all. So he continued, "Butler Chen, when do you think we'll send someone to take your young master back home?"
Hearing this, Butler Chen calmed down completely and replied calmly, "As a butler, I can't make decisions about matters concerning the young master. How about this, Miss Shang, I'll give you Mr. He's private phone number. You can call Mr. He and ask him yourself later? ...Okay, thank you for your help, Miss Shang."
After hanging up the phone, Butler Chen walked back to the main gate of the house without changing his expression. Seeing He Cong coming out of the elevator with a sullen face, he walked up to him and reported the content of the call that Shang Youqing had just made to him truthfully.
He Cong's expression was stern. After hearing this, he was about to order the people from Ning City to pick up the child. Butler Chen suggested at this moment, "Sir, why don't we pick up the young master two days later?"
He Cong's cold, deep black pupils swept over, "What did you say?"
The servants waiting on the side were also shocked by what Butler Chen said.
Not to mention the rumors from the outside world, everyone in Yanyuan has witnessed how much the head of the He family loves and cares for his youngest son in the past few years.
This time, the disappearance of Young Master He in Ning City caused such a big stir that Ning City immediately dispatched a lot of manpower to search for him. Now that there is finally news about the young master, the housekeeper Chen, who has always been calm and steady, actually asked Mr. He to pick up the child two days later?
Butler Chen met the master's gaze and continued to speak in full.
"Young Master has been thinking about going to Mingling Zoo to visit Miss Shang these past few days. Now that he's at Miss Shang's place, let's just think of it as a two-day trip. Once he's had enough fun, he won't be missing her all the time when he comes back, right? Besides, I checked the time. The day after tomorrow, Sunday, is a perfect time to pick him up. Then Mr. will be taking him to the old house to visit Old Madam He."
The air seemed to slowly freeze into ice in an instant.
Just at this moment, He Cong's cell phone rang.
He lowered his eyes to check the unfamiliar caller ID. Before he could move, Butler Chen coughed and whispered, "It should be Miss Shang calling."
After a moment of silence, He Cong answered the call with his slender fingers and walked to the window.
"... Is that Mr. He?"
Shang Youqing stood under the eaves of the courtyard, and was still thinking a little tiredly when she made the call. If the He family sent someone to pick up the child later, she would have to ask them to come from the west gate to avoid her having to take an extra detour.
Just as I was thinking about it, a calm and indifferent voice came from the other side of the screen, "It's me."
