The foreigner looked fierce and menacing, which terrified Xiaoqi.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Liu hurriedly ran over, shielded his sister behind him, and said sincerely, "Sir, I'm sorry, my sister was running fast and accidentally bumped into you."
The foreigner with the fierce look only glanced at him before asking, "Have you seen a chubby little boy with a flower-shaped birthmark on his forehead?"
Xiao Qi's face turned red with anger. She clenched her little fists and ran out from behind her brother, puffing out her cheeks.
Xiao Liu was startled and quickly tried to cover his sister's mouth.
To her surprise, her younger sister angrily shouted, "Little Yueyue is not a chubby little girl! What nonsense are you talking about! Little Yueyue is the cutest little girl!"
The foreigners looked down at the petite but pretty little girl and couldn't connect her with the chubby boy they were looking for.
The little girl mentioned above has a birthmark on her forehead, the birthmark is flower-shaped, her face is round like a ball, and she looks three sizes bigger than other children her age.
He imagined in his mind a chubby guy with small eyes and a flat nose who must not be good-looking.
Xiao Liu secretly breathed a sigh of relief; his younger sister was really clever!
"Where is that little girl you mentioned?" the foreign man asked curtly.
Xiaoqi pouted and said, "Xiaoyueyue is in the training camp. Do you want to go find her? I can show you the way!"
"I don't need you to lead the way."
The foreigners walked straight toward the training camp.
After he went inside, Xiao Qi quickly grabbed Xiao Liu's hand: "Brother, let's run!"
"Don't rush to run. If you suddenly run now, he'll notice something's wrong. Let's move forward slowly."
"good."
Xiao Qi glanced back and saw the man enter the iron gate. She lowered her voice and asked, "Brother, can we run now?"
"run!"
Xiao Liu grabbed her younger sister's hand and ran forward as fast as she could: "It's closer to Second Sister's school here, let's go to the school to find Second Sister first!"
Xiaoqi, panting heavily, said, "Grandpa said the training camp was safe, but we almost got kidnapped by bad guys!"
"Little sister, are you tired?"
"I'm so tired!"
"Brother will carry you on his back!"
"No need, brother, you're tired too. I can manage!"
"Go, little sister!"
"Brother, how much further do we have to run to get there?"
"Run across that road, and you'll be there soon."
"I can see my sister's school!"
As soon as the two ran to the door, they saw a familiar figure – the bodyguard in a cleaning uniform.
"Sixth Young Master, Seventh Miss, what brings you here? Are you looking for Third Young Master and Second Miss?"
"Yes, bodyguard sister, where are my second sister and third brother?"
"I'll take you to them." The bodyguard took off her cleaning gloves and took Xiaoqi's little hand. "Xiaoqi, why are your little hands so sweaty?"
"I ran here."
"Your fragrance is too strong, wear this to cover it up." The bodyguard draped the cleaning uniform over Xiaoqi's body.
Xiaoqi wrinkled her nose in disgust: "It stinks!"
"Maybe it got on my hands while cleaning the toilet."
Xiaoqi opened her eyes wide in horror: "Can I not wear it?"
"But you smell too good, you should wear it." The bodyguard patted Xiaoqi's head. "Good girl."
“…Okay.” Xiao Qi said reluctantly.
Sunlight streamed through the spacious, bright classroom windows, casting dappled shadows on the floor. A gentle breeze carried a hint of summer heat.
In the classroom, Han Chengshan was boasting to his friends about his trip.
Han Rou, standing to the side, shook her head helplessly, thinking to herself that her third brother was too much of a braggart.
"Brother Shan, could you get us some lotus root cakes?"
"In short! I'll bring you lotus root cakes next Monday!"
"Brother Shan, you're like my own brother, could you bring some for my parents?"
"What, you parents also need to bring them?"
"Hey, actually I was thinking of asking if I could bring some for my grandparents. Our whole family loves watching this show, but the lotus root cakes sell out as soon as they're on the shelves. They're so hard to get!"
At this moment, the sunlight outside the window became even more intense, filtering through the gaps in the leaves and scattering into the classroom like scattered gold.
Han Chengshan was about to readily agree when Han Rou stopped him: "Grandpa doesn't know if he has any, so don't agree right away, what if he doesn't?"
"That's true. I don't know if Grandpa has any extra. I can't agree to your request so easily. If I promise but can't keep it, I'll break my promise."
"Brother Shan, it's okay. Just do your best, and if you can't do it, that's fine too."
"Okay, I'll go back and ask. If it's available, I'll arrange it for you as soon as possible!"
"Han Chengshan, Han Rou, your family members are here to see you."
"Our family members? Could it be Grandpa?" Han Chengshan asked in surprise.
"Brother Shan, is your grandfather here?"
"Let's go see Boss Han in person!"
"I have to go join in the fun!"
"Me too, I have to join in the fun!"
Almost all the students in the class rushed to the classroom door, where two little kids were standing.
The bright sunshine made Xiaoqi's face look even cuter.
"Wow, this little girl is so cute!"
"Like a porcelain doll!"
"It's so exquisite!"
"Han Chengshan, are these your family members?"
"Brother Shan, is this the incredibly cute little sister you always brag about?"
Han Chengshan said proudly, "Hehe, aren't you envious!"
Most of his classmates were only children, and even those with brothers rarely had younger sisters. He often boasted about this to them.
He used to feel embarrassed when his younger sister was chubby, thinking she wasn't presentable.
Now that my little sister is so cute, of course I have to show her off!
I'm so envious!
"This is so cute! Such a sweet and soft little sister!"
"Wait a minute, why is your sister wearing a cleaning uniform? There looks suspicious poop on it!"
Why does your sister smell a little?
"Get away from me, what nonsense are you spouting!"
Han Chengshan pushed through the crowd, came to Xiao Qi's side, squatted down, and twitched his lips: "Uh! Little sister, you really do smell a bit!"
Xiaoqi pouted and said, "I don't smell bad, I smell good, it's the clothes that smell bad."
Xiaoqi looked up at the bodyguard and said, "I want to take it off."
The bodyguard smiled gently: "Wear it a little longer."
Xiaoqi hung her head and answered in a muffled voice, "Oh, I know."
"Huh? Why is Xiao Qi being so well-behaved?" Han Chengshan wondered.
Han Rou was also quite surprised, not expecting her younger sister to be so well-behaved, even willing to wear clothes stained with poop.
Han Rou took her younger sister's hand and walked towards the playground: "Xiao Qi, did something happen?"
Han Chengshan then asked Xiao Liu, "Why are you guys at school? Shouldn't you be at the training camp?"
“My sister and I did go to the training camp, but we met a foreigner who was looking for a little girl with a flower-shaped birthmark. My sister lied to him, and after he left, we came here to find you.”
"He doesn't know Little Sister?" Han Chengshan asked in surprise.
"He was looking for the chubby little boy with the flower-shaped birthmark, but now his sister has covered the birthmark with her bangs and has lost weight. It's so different from what he heard. He never imagined that the little girl he asked for directions was the one he was looking for."
Upon hearing this, Han Chengshan's expression became extremely solemn. He quickly dialed his grandfather's number. This matter could be a big deal or a small deal. Foreigners had tried to kidnap Xiao Qi before, and now they were after the birthmark, so they must have known that Xiao Qi had a special fragrance.
Han Fei had just reached the office door when he was blocked by Han Heng and Zhang Jianguo.
When he learned that the supplier was withholding goods due to a strike by lotus root harvesters, a mocking smile appeared on his lips: "Do they think we won't go and verify with the lotus root harvesters?"
Zhang Jianguo said with a mournful face, "I have already verified with the lotus root harvesters, and it was indeed a matter of wages that led to the strike."
"The person you asked may have been bribed or coerced, and the information you received may be false."
"Boss, do I need to go to Lake B to verify this in person?"
"No need for that, I've already added quite a few lotus root harvesters on WeChat."
"Boss, when did you add the lotus root harvester on WeChat?" Zhang Jianguo asked in surprise.
“When we were filming the show, we stayed at a farmhouse. There were two brothers in the family who harvested lotus roots. I saw that they were going out early and returning late these days and had harvested a lot of lotus roots. They didn’t seem like they were on strike at all.”
"So, Wang Haozi was lying to me about all of this?"
"That's possible, but we need to verify it further."
Just as Han Fei was about to call the two brothers who were harvesting lotus roots, the phone rang. It was Xiao Laosan calling.
"Grandpa, please come pick us up from school. Xiao Liu and Xiao Qi are with us."
"Shouldn't Xiao Liu and Xiao Qi be in training camp?"
Han Fei personally sent the two children to the training camp, but now the children have run off to Xiao Rou and Xiao Lao San's school. What exactly happened in between?
"Grandpa, someone is trying to capture Xiaoqi, but Xiaoqi escaped!"
Upon hearing this, Han Fei no longer cared about the lotus root and rushed to the school immediately.
Zhang Jianguo and Han Heng followed behind.
"Big brother, what happened?"
"Boss, I'll drive!"
"Hurry up and get to Xiaoshan and Xiaorou's school, quick!"
"good!"
When Han Fei arrived at the school, he saw Xiao Qi and Xiao Liu at the school gate, the two children being led by their older siblings.
Han Fei rushed forward, wanting to hug Xiao Qi, but was scared back a step by the clothes on Xiao Qi's body that were stained with feces.
However, Xiaoqi rushed over and buried her head in his arms.
Han Fei couldn't very well push the little girl away, so he could only grit his teeth and hug her, holding his breath.
Little Qi nestled in her grandfather's arms, finally feeling a little safe.
She appeared calm on the surface, but inside she was terrified of what had just happened.
"Grandpa, Xiaoqi was almost kidnapped by bad guys! You said the training camp was safe, but it's not safe at all. Someone came to kidnap Xiaoqi as soon as you left!"
Han Fei felt a pang of guilt; he hadn't considered things carefully enough.
"Xiao Qi, do you remember what that person looked like?"
Xiaoqi nodded vigorously and said angrily, "It looks really fierce!"
She gestured to her eyebrows, pressing two fingers against the ends and lifting them upwards: "Eyebrows standing up like that look awful!"
She pinched her nose and said in a childish voice, "My nose is very pointed, like an eagle's beak!"
Han Fei had a good idea of what was going on: a foreigner with raised eyebrows, a fierce appearance, and a hooked nose.
Ask Lao Gu for help to check the surveillance footage of the streets around the training camp. He should be able to pinpoint the target soon!
Han Fei picked up the little girl, his clothes already stained with her clothes, but he couldn't complain about it now.
Where did you get these clothes?
Xiaoqi pointed to the bodyguard sister who was quietly following behind, as if she were invisible.
Han Fei chuckled and said to the female bodyguard, "You did a great job."
“It’s what I should do,” the female bodyguard replied.
Han Fei took off Xiao Qi's coat and handed it to her: "You don't need it now."
The female bodyguard nodded, took the coat, and silently put it on, her movements fluid and natural.
Han Fei seemed to want to say something, but then stopped himself. After coughing lightly, he ultimately said nothing.
Han Fei dared not let Xiao Qi out of his sight again, and Lao Gu also replied.
The foreigner entered the training camp looking for a chubby little boy named Xiaoyueyue, but ended up finding a little boy instead. The boy told him that the girl with the birthmark was named Xiaoqi, and only then did he realize he had been tricked.
He rushed out to look for them, but by then Xiao Qi and Xiao Liu had already disappeared.
He was preparing to contact someone to continue searching for Xiao Qi when he was surrounded by the police.
"Sir, we suspect you have entered the country illegally. Please come with us."
The man tried to escape, but a policewoman kicked him to the ground with a few kicks. The policewoman, a former Sanda (Chinese kickboxing) runner-up, laughed wildly and said, "Please cooperate with us."
With a wave of her hand, a police officer stepped forward, subdued the man, and forcibly took him away.
Even after Xiaoqi fell asleep that night, Han Fei remained worried and stayed by the child's side.
My phone vibrated; it was a call from Lao Gu.
Han Fei then stepped out of the room to answer the phone: "What's their background?"
"He was hired, but it is not yet clear who hired him."
Do you know the other party's purpose?
"He was hired to find a chubby little boy with a flower-shaped birthmark at a Boy Scout training camp in China. That was his job. He didn't know anything else."
"Okay, thank you, Lao Gu."
"No need for thanks between us! Congratulations, Lao Han! I didn't expect your Xiao Qi to lose weight so quickly. This time, it's all thanks to her successful weight loss."
"yes."
"You don't need to worry too much. I will continue to investigate and let you know when I have any news."
Even after hanging up the phone, Han Fei was still worried.
In the original story, perhaps to prevent Xiao Liu from dying with regrets, the true culprit who killed Xiao Qi was never revealed to him until his death.
If Han Fei had known who it was beforehand, he could have turned the tables and taken care of that guy first.
