Qi Mengmeng was very calm under Grandpa Feng's gaze, as she had done nothing wrong.
Feng Lian couldn't wait to take a step forward and said, "Old leader, this person has bad intentions. She coaxed Lei Lei to call her mom. She must be trying to blackmail our family."
As she spoke, she pointed her left index finger at Qi Mengmeng, who walked up to her and slapped her hand away without any hesitation.
"I just said, don't point your finger at me, didn't you understand?"
"Ah!" Feng Lian was shocked, mainly because she didn't expect that someone would dare to be so arrogant in front of Grandpa Feng.
The room fell silent, with only the sound of Feng Lian gasping for air.
"What? I saved your child, but now I'm blackmailing you? If that's what you're saying, I shouldn't have saved him in the first place?"
Qi Mengmeng was not going to indulge Feng Lian. She stepped forward and said, "Since you care so much about Lei Lei, how did Lei Lei get lost? Why did you guys only come to find him after several days?"
Feng Lian took a step back after being scolded by Qi Mengmeng. She swallowed her saliva and said with a stammer, "These are our family affairs. You don't need to care about them."
"Hmph," Qi Mengmeng snorted coldly, "Do you think I'm willing to mind your business?"
She ignored Feng Lian and squatted down to ask Lei Lei: "Leilei, is this your grandpa?"
Lei Lei glanced at Grandpa Feng and nodded, but he held Qi Mengmeng's hand and did not move.
Qi Mengmeng smiled and touched his little face, saying, "Leilei, be a good boy when you go home."
Lei Lei grabbed Qi Meng Meng's hand and cried, "Mom, don't go."
Feng Lian pouted and was about to speak, but Grandpa Feng gave her a look that scared her so much that she shut her mouth.
"Leilei, I've told you, I'm not your mother. Grandpa is here to pick you up, you can go home with grandpa." Qi Mengmeng said to Leilei gently.
"If you miss me later, you can come and see me."
She said this to coax Lei Lei, of course. Looking at Grandpa Feng's temperament, one could tell that he was not an ordinary person. Feng Lian was full of hostility towards her, and it was estimated that they would be strangers from now on.
"Grandpa, can mom come home with us?" Lei Lei said to Grandpa Feng in a crying voice.
Grandpa Feng shook his head: "Leilei, Comrade Qi also has his own family."
"Grandpa, you are lying. You clearly said that if I found my mom, she would come home with me. Now that I have found my mom, you still won't let her come home with me." Lei Lei suddenly burst into tears.
Qi Mengmeng quickly squatted down to coax Lei Lei. She had been with Lei Lei for the past few days and knew that Lei Lei had a very difficult personality and he didn't cry easily. Now it seemed that he really missed his mother.
She didn't know what had happened to Lei Lei's mother, but from what Lei Lei said, his mother probably hadn't been home for a long time.
After being coaxed by Qi Mengmeng for a while, Lei Lei felt much better. He held Qi Mengmeng's hand and begged, "Mom, can you come home with me? I miss you so much."
Qi Mengmeng was a little embarrassed. She was not Lei Lei's mother at all, so of course she couldn't go home with Lei Lei.
She avoided Leilei's gaze and stood up: "Grandpa Feng, I'll leave Leilei to you. If possible, it's better to let his parents spend more time with him."
A trace of sorrow flashed across Grandpa Feng's face, and he waved at Lei Lei: "Leilei, come to Grandpa."
Lei Lei glanced at Grandpa Feng, then turned his head and looked at Qi Meng Meng with tears in his eyes: "Mom, you really can't come home with me?"
"Leilei, I'm not your mother. You will see your mother when you go back." Qi Mengmeng patted Leilei's little head and pushed him towards Grandpa Feng.
"No, no, you are my mother." Lei Lei hugged Qi Mengmeng's thighs and continued to cry.
"Mom, why don't you come home with me? I miss you, Mom." Lei Lei cried and grabbed Qi Mengmeng, preventing her from leaving.
Qi Mengmeng was a little confused. She didn't know what was going on with Lei Lei. Lei Lei was obviously very well behaved a few days ago, so why did he suddenly become like this today?
"Feng Lei." Grandpa Feng suddenly lowered his voice: "Come to my side."
Lei Lei paused crying, hiccuped, looked at Qi Mengmeng again, and then walked towards Grandpa Feng with a sob. He took two steps and looked back, then took two more steps and looked back again. His action looked very pitiful.
Qi Mengmeng felt very sad. She really wanted to pull Lei Lei over and take him home, but she knew she couldn't. Lei Lei still had to return to his family.
"Grandpa." Lei Lei didn't cry when he returned to Grandpa Feng. He just raised his head and looked at Grandpa Feng pitifully.
Grandpa Feng was also upset, but he didn't show it on his face. He just lowered his head and said, "Leilei, Grandpa told you that a real man should shed blood, not tears."
Leilei's tears flowed down his eyes, and he said in a choked voice: "I won't cry, Grandpa, can you let Mom come home with me?"
Qi Mengmeng felt sad and couldn't stand this scene, so she handed the bag in her hand to Grandpa Feng.
"Grandpa Feng, these are Leilei's clothes and toys, as well as some food I bought for Leilei. Go slowly on your way back. I'm leaving first."
"Wait." Grandpa Feng called out to Qi Mengmeng the moment she turned around, "You saved Leilei, and I haven't given you a thank you gift yet."
"No need, Grandpa Feng, you've already thanked me."
If Qi Mengmeng had some expectations for the Feng family's thank-you gift before coming here, after meeting Feng Lian, she felt that it would be better to keep a distance from the Feng family.
Just now when Feng Lian was shouting beside her, she saw clearly that Grandpa Feng had no intention of stopping her, which meant that Grandpa Feng was trying to test her.
Perhaps the Feng family's status in Kyoto is not ordinary, but facing her grandson's savior, her first reaction was to test rather than be grateful. She thought, forget it.
Qi Mengmeng nodded at Grandpa Feng, smiled at Lei Lei, and walked out.
When she left, Lei Lei moved and tried to run away, but was caught by Grandpa Feng.
"Leilei, that's not your mother." Grandpa Feng said calmly.
Leilei lowered his head with tears in his eyes: "Grandpa, I think she is my mother."
Feng Lian reached out to Lei Lei: "Leilei, come and let your aunt hug you."
"No," Lei Lei twisted his body: "You just said my mother."
Feng Lian glanced at Grandpa Feng and said nothing.
At this time, a young man came in from outside, bowed to Grandpa Feng, and said a few words in his ear.
Grandpa Feng nodded and said to Meng Dajun beside him, "Director Meng, this time it's all thanks to you. I will tell Director Wang about this."
Meng Dajun's face was full of red: "This is what we should do."
Grandpa Feng exchanged a few more words with Meng Dajun, then took Lei Lei out of the police station and got into the car parked outside.
Wang Dong watched the car drive away and asked Meng Dajun in surprise: "Director Meng, where is this leader from?"
Meng Dajun waved his hand and told them to work hard and make sure to solve the child trafficking case, and not to ask about other things.
