Tang Zhimo’s sense of danger was still very strong. Therefore, he did not dare to make too many sounds, nor did he dare to go over in one go.
If he rushed over in one go, if anything happened, it would be too late to dodge.
He had to slowly figure out the situation first.
At this moment, Ye Lanchen’s footsteps had already slowed down.
“I heard that Leng Rong personally came out to welcome Madam early this morning,” Gu Wu added. It was unknown if he did it on purpose or not.
Ye Lanchen was the clearest about Leng Rong’s character. Sometimes, when the higher-ups came down to check, Leng Rong would do whatever he wanted to do.
How could Leng Rong personally come out to welcome her?
Unless Leng Rong already knew that she was Chu Wuyou.
Thinking of this possibility, Ye Lanchen stopped in his tracks. He quickly glanced upstairs, then turned around and went down the stairs.
He was here to look for Chu Wuyou. Now that Chu Wuyou had returned to Jin City and was with Leng Rong, he did not have time to waste on other things.
Just as Ye Lanchen turned to leave, Tang Zhimo had already reached the staircase and saw Ye Lanchen’s back.
Ye Lanchen was still in the hall and had not left. Tang Zhimo had not seen Ye Lanchen before. He had checked some of Ye Lanchen’s information and seen Ye Lanchen’s photos, but they were all from the front and did not have a back view.
Therefore, Tang Zhimo did not know if that person was Ye Lanchen.
Tang Zhimo wanted to give it a try.
In any case, the person had already left, which meant that the matter had been resolved and there was no longer any danger. He was just a child, so it should not be a problem for him to give it a try.
With this thought in mind, Tang Zhimo really opened his mouth and shouted.
However, he had only halfway shouted the word “Ye” when he was discovered by Tang Boqian. Tang Boqian was shocked and suddenly gave a look to a person on the stairs. Then, that person quickly flashed in front of Tang Zhimo and covered Tang Zhimo’s mouth.
Then, he brought Tang Zhimo inside.
At this moment, Ye Lanchen had already walked to the main entrance. For a moment, he suddenly heard someone calling for him. To be exact, someone had been halfway through calling out the word “Ye”.
Ye Lanchen subconsciously turned his head to look, but he did not notice anything strange. Tang Boqian was still standing in his original position, his eyes looking at him.
“Ye Lanchen, take care. I won’t see you out.” Tang Boqian deliberately said that the moment Ye Lanchen turned his head.
Tang Boqian’s intention was very obvious. He wanted to cover up the sound that Tang Zhimo had shouted out just now.
Ye Lanchen’s eyes narrowed slightly. He knew that Tang Boqian was playing tricks, but he did not want to care about Tang Boqian’s matter. Right now, he only wanted to find Chu Wuyou as soon as possible.
Of course, he also thought that Tang Boqian might be deliberately trying to delay him, so Ye Lanchen did not pay any more attention to him and immediately left.
After Ye Lanchen left, he looked at Zhang Ping. After thinking for a moment, he instructed, “Continue to keep an eye on him and see if there’s anything wrong. Pay special attention to the children.”
It was very obvious that Ye Lanchen had not forgotten the cries of the children from before.
Tang Boqian watched as Ye Lanchen walked away. He then went upstairs and saw that Tang Zhimo was being held by someone. His mouth was still covered.
Ye Lanchen had already left. Tang Boqian motioned for the person to release Tang Zhimo.
“He is Ye Lanchen, right?” Tang Zhimo did not cry like a normal child. At this moment, he was very calm.
