Chapter 497: Chapter 498: Brought Back a Glutinous Rice Ball
Gu Qichen didn’t expect that while he was walking, a little boy would grab his hand.
From Gu Qichen’s perspective, he could only see the fluffy little head of the boy.
However, the tone of this child was completely different from ordinary children.
When he grabbed his hand, it was natural, without even looking up.
With his peripheral vision however, Gu Qichen could see a few people trailing the little boy.
Unexplainably, a sense of compassion rose up within him.
He didn’t think too much about what was happening.
He directly picked up the boy and left the Empire Hotel.
Gu Qichen came today to gather information.
Sure enough, Gao Huizhi did not appear in the end.
Perhaps he had discovered the trap here.
At this moment, he was leaving.
Gu Qichen carried the boy to the car, and then drove away quickly.
Fortunately, those people didn’t chase after him.
After all, they were just chasing a little boy, the most important thing now was to catch Xiao Zhan.
All of the men in black retraced their steps.
After getting in the car, the little boy remained silent.
“Why were those people following you?” Gu Qichen asked straightforwardly.
The boy still did not respond.
When Gu Qichen turned his head to look, he saw that the boy had fallen asleep on the backseat.
Gu Qichen chuckled silently.
This kid was really bold.
He had just been chased by people of unknown origin and yet he was able to fall asleep as soon as he got in the car.
For him, Gu Qichen was also a stranger.
This was the first time that Gu Qichen encountered this kind of situation.
He wondered what this boy had been through, and where were his parents?
Why would a child be alone in a place like the Empire Building?
However, observing the child’s attire, he did not appear to belong to an ordinary family.
The boy was dressed in an expensive tailored suit, something Gu Qichen could recognize at a glance.
This type of high-end outfit was priceless.
Was he wearing this because he was attending an important occasion?
Gu Qichen called him a few times, but the boy seemed to be sound asleep.
No matter how much he called, he couldn’t wake the boy up.
With no other choice, Gu Qichen took the boy straight to Green Villa.
Gu Qichen planned to wait for the boy to wake up and then inquire about the situation.
The disappearance of such a big child would certainly make any parent extremely anxious.
Once they arrived at Green Villa.
Gu Qichen carried the boy out of the car.
He was sleeping so deeply that he had no reaction when Gu Qichen carried him.
Fang Zhengdong came over to report on work matters.
He was astounded when he saw Gu Qichen carrying a child.
Fang Zhengdong asked, “Who is this little sticky rice dumpling?”
Gu Qichen responded nonchalantly, “I have no idea.”
After saying this, he carried the boy upstairs.
Fang Zhengdong was so surprised he couldn’t close his mouth, “Didn’t the president go to the Empire Building today? Why did he bring back a sticky rice dumpling? Given this kid’s expensive clothing, he must have parents looking for him. Doesn’t the president know that kidnapping is illegal?”
Though he thought this, Fang Zhengdong followed him upstairs, saying seriously, “Mr. President, let me carry him to the room if you’re tired.”
But Gu Qichen simply shook his head: “No need.”
He then carried the little sticky rice dumpling upstairs.
In the end, he placed the sticky rice dumpling on his own king-sized bed.
The sticky rice dumpling was sleeping so deeply, up till now he was oblivious to everything.
Gu Qichen found it somewhat strange.
He shook the boy’s little body.
But still, there was no reaction.
