Chapter 94 Mother and Son Collaborate
What is Xiaoyao doing?
Su Yunqi hummed a few times in confusion. The sound was very light, but in the silent night, it was not completely silent.
The person outside the door quickly retracted the thin branch that had been stretched in, and did not dare to make a sound.
"Mom, there are bad guys outside the door."
Little Lu Yao first put his index finger to his lips and hushed Su Yunqi, asking her not to speak. Then he let go of Su Yunqi and wrote something on her palm, telling her that there were bad people outside.
What? There’s a thief in the house!
This was the first time a thief had broken into the house in all these years, and it was also the first time Su Yunqi had encountered such a situation. Lu Zhao was not at home, and there was only her and the two children. For a moment, she panicked and quickly sat up.
I didn't know whether to yell at him or pretend I knew nothing and block the door.
Little Lu Yao was also thinking about this question. After thinking about it, he turned over, crawled to the bed and turned on the light.
"Xiaoyao!"
Su Yunqi had no time to stop him. He watched his son turn on the light. The room was immediately lit up. Now, everyone outside the door knew that they were awake.
"Mom, I'm thirsty."
Little Lu Yao said in a crisp voice, just like a child who suddenly woke up in the middle of the night and wanted to drink water.
"Okay, Mom will go get you some water."
Su Yunqi didn’t know what her son was doing, but since it had come to this, she had no choice but to cooperate with little Lu Yao.
Su Yunqi got out of bed and quietly poured a glass of water for little Lu Yao.
There must be a thermos and cups in the room, which is convenient for drinking water at night or making milk powder for Su Qian, so there is no need to go out.
Little Lu Yao first took the water and actually drank two sips before speaking.
"Mom, I'd better sleep in the next room tomorrow. I'm used to sleeping alone. I'm not used to sleeping with you, dad, and sister. It feels so crowded. I can't even turn over."
He spoke in a baby voice, pointing to the large empty space at the end of the bed.
"Look, Mom, Dad is about to fall off the bed."
What he said was so obvious that Su Yunqi understood it immediately. This was to create the illusion that Lu Zhao was still at home. With a man at home, the bad guys outside would not dare to be too arrogant and might even be scared away.
"It's okay. It's already midnight. Let's go back to sleep. Our family of four can squeeze together. If you don't want to squeeze in, you can sleep in the next room tomorrow. Your father has been busy outside for two days. He drove back to the village on the pretext of a friend. Let him sleep peacefully tonight. Don't move around or wake him up."
Su Yunqi responded calmly and patched up what Lu Yao said.
If they could sneak into her house, they probably wanted to steal something. It is impossible that they didn’t know that they had just bought a car. Maybe because of this, people from outside thought that their family was rich and wanted to come and steal things.
He was probably sure that Lu Zhao had driven away, so he dared to come because he was not at home. Now there was no car parked in the yard, and Lu Yao said that Lu Zhao was at home, so Su Yunqi had to make up this lie.
If Lu Zhao drove, he would be more conspicuous, but if he walked back, he would be less conspicuous. Even if someone outside was squatting near their house today, he would not be sure whether Lu Zhao really did not come back.
Sure enough, after hearing the conversation between the mother and son, the man outside hesitated. Could it be that he didn't notice that Lu Zhao had already returned?
If Lu Zhao had returned, he would never be able to do it today. If Lu Zhao was not there, he could still give it a try. He even wanted to wait until the mother and son fell asleep again before taking action.
"Okay, let's go back to sleep."
"Mom, please leave the light on. I may need to get up to go to the bathroom later. My sister will wake up soon and needs to be fed. Don't turn off the light yet. I find it easier to fall asleep with the light on. It's pitch black when the light is off, and I get a little scared."
Little Lu Yao said this and hugged Su Yunqi.
Little Su Qian knew nothing and was sleeping soundly beside him.
Su Yunqi hugged little Lu Yao back and kissed him on the forehead.
"Okay, lie down quickly. Mommy won't turn off the light. Mommy will coax you to sleep."
Su Yunqi said gently, then held little Lu Yao in his arms, patted his back gently, and coaxed him to sleep. He didn't know whether the person outside had left or not, and Su Yunqi didn't plan to open the door to go out to check. If he didn't leave, it would be bad if he opened the door to go out.
Just now, when Su Yunqi got out of bed to pour some water for little Lu Yao, he took the opportunity to check the door. It was fine and no one outside could get in for a while. It's now past 1 a.m. We just have to hold on until dawn. Chen Cuilan will come over around six or seven in the morning.
Moreover, when the sun rises, the thief will definitely leave and will not dare to stay in their house anymore.
Su Yunqi secretly encouraged herself in her heart, telling herself not to be afraid. She had to protect her two children, and Xiaoyao was so smart that he would help her scare the thief away.
"Well, Mom, you are so kind. I won't talk anymore, so as not to wake Dad up. Dad will get angry again when he wakes up. Dad has a bad temper. If someone wakes him up, he will hit them."
Little Lu Yao lay in Su Yunqi's arms, grabbing her clothes and whispered.
What he said sounded like the truth, and he personally smeared his father's reputation, which made the men outside even more wary.
Lu Zhao still had a bad temper. What if he woke him up and was caught by him, and he beat him to death?
The man outside backed off and squatted quietly outside, planning to wait until the mother and daughter in the house fell asleep before sneaking over the wall and leaving. It’s better not to steal the money. There’s no need to put yourself at risk.
Besides, their family just bought a car, so they may not have enough money at home. It might be a waste of time and not worth it!
The thief also comforted himself in his heart, and both sides were on guard against each other.
Although they were lying down, Su Yunqi and Lu Yao couldn't sleep either. They were secretly paying attention to the movements outside the door. If that person didn't give up and still wanted to open the door and steal things, the mother and daughter would scream for help.
The stalemate lasted for about an hour. Su Yunqi and Lu Yao were drowsy and wanted to fall asleep. Then they heard sporadic noises. It was someone climbing the wall.
Because the wall was quite high and might be difficult to climb, you could still hear the sound of the man running up the wall. He didn't climb up and instead slipped down the wall and then climbed up again.
Let him climb up and leave quickly!
Su Yunqi prayed silently in his heart.
Finally, after another five minutes, there was no sound in the yard. Little Lu Yao sat up again. He pricked up his ears and listened for a while, then said affirmatively.
"Mom, he's gone."
"I'll go out and take a look. Don't be afraid, Mom. Dad isn't home. I'll protect you and your sister!"
