The man didn’t answer, so Song Song nervously asked again, "Mr. Xiao, what happened to Bao Bei? Did something happen?"
Xiao Jinghuai threw the phone back at her with a cold face and said, "Bao Bei’s phone suddenly shut down."
"What?" Song Song’s heart skipped a beat, and she started to panic, "Then, what should we do now? Let’s go find Bao Bei right away! I think he’s probably near the subway station because I heard a lot of noise from his side just now..."
Xiao Jinghuai immediately walked to the desk, picked up the phone, and began tracking, but upon seeing the information displayed, his frown deepened, "Damn it! This brat dismantled the tracking system."
Song Song also hurried over, "Mr. Xiao, the phone you gave Bao Bei has tracking, right? Is it not working now?"
Seeing the girl’s little face on the verge of tears, Xiao Jinghuai suddenly felt a soft spot in his heart, "I don’t have time to explain to you right now..."
After speaking, he immediately walked out with the phone, and Song Song quickly followed, "Mr. Xiao, are you going to find Bao Bei now? I’ll go with you, one more person is more strength, besides, Bao Bei went out to find me..."
At this moment, the man walking in front suddenly stopped, turned around abruptly, and Song Song couldn’t stop in time, bumping directly into his arms. It was again the same light mint scent as last time, and she was so scared she didn’t dare to move.
"I’m telling you now, no matter what the old man asked you to do, no matter what you want to get from me, I’d advise you to stop wasting your efforts!"
Xiao Jinghuai’s voice grew colder, "Even if you can get close to Bao Bei, a girl as dim-witted as you holds no appeal to me, understand?"
"I—I didn’t think that far... I just hope Bao Bei is okay now." Song Song lowered her head, the feeling of grievance growing stronger, she sniffled, "And I know what kind of girl I am, Mr. Xiao, you don’t need to keep emphasizing... how stupid I am."
At that moment, the girl’s head, originally lowered, suddenly lifted, her eyes red, "If Mr. Xiao doesn’t let me go with you today, then I’ll—I’ll go tell Grandpa Xiao that you’re bullying me."
"..."
Xiao Jinghuai’s cold eyes fixed on the girl’s flushed face, "You dare to threaten me?"
"Let’s just say—let’s just say I am!"
In desperation, she was grasping at straws, so she used Grandpa Xiao as leverage.
Xiao Jinghuai suddenly turned around, ignoring the little girl who couldn’t keep up with his stride even if she jogged, "Keep up if you can!"
Song Song internally grumbled, so what if you have long legs! At most, she’ll just run a bit faster.
The two drove to the subway station where Bao Bei was most likely to be, which was near Xiao Jinghuai’s residence...
As soon as they arrived at the subway station, they split up to search, but there were too many people in the station, and Bao Bei was so small that he was hard to find.
When Song Song passed the public restrooms at the subway station, she suddenly heard two people talking, "Didn’t expect to nab such a good product, all tender and looking so fresh, sure to fetch a good price."
"Shh! Keep it down, careful not to let anyone find out, hide the kid well, or it’ll mess things up."
"Of course... not the first time doing this kind of thing."
"..."
Song Song realized these two were definitely child traffickers, and it was likely the child they mentioned was Bao Bei.
At that moment, she suddenly had an idea, then swaggered over to the two.
