Chapter 404: Chapter 404 She Cannot Fall_1
“Ayun, at noon, did you see a child crying? You came back and told me that the mother made the child cry so badly and did not even try to console him. You said, what could a one-year-old understand?”
“Yes, Sister Lan, when I came home at noon, I saw such a scene, the child was crying so pitifully,” the waitress replied.
Meng Yunhan couldn’t hold back her tears.
“Excuse me, where did you see this? Could you please take us there?” Yun Hao wiped his wife’s tears and respectfully asked the other person. Updates are released by 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹·𝑓𝑖𝑟𝑒·𝗇𝗲𝘁
“Ayun, you go with them and have a look. I will take over your work,” Sister Lan took over Ayun’s tasks and asked her to take the couple there.
“Sister Lan, what’s going on here?”
Sister Lan looked at Ayun, “You may be right, the child isn’t hers, but theirs. I saw that child before, on the day you took leave. If you were here, you might have recognized him.”
“Well, I’ll take you to have a look, I don’t know if she’s still there or not.”
“Thank you, thank you so much.” Meng Yunhan tightly held Sister Lan’s hand with a bow to express her gratitude.
“Finding the child is what matters. Hurry, go.”
Sister Lan remembered that cute child with uncommon good looks. After returning home, she told her husband about the arrival of three generations of people at their place earlier in the day – the kid’s parents had come to attend university and they seemed to be the only ones living here so early after Chinese New Year.
Because the memory was deeply engraved, it was immediately retrieved upon this mention, otherwise who would be able to remember with the in-and-out flux of people at the hostel each day!
“Sister Ayun, around what time did you see them at noon?” Meng Yunhan took a deep breath to calm herself down. She had to stay calm in order to quickly find her son.
When she thought of her son being tortured by Lu Jingyi, she wanted to kill Lu Jingyi.
“Around eleven o’clock, I guess. My mother-in-law had a stroke, and I was preparing lunch for her at home. I first heard a child crying. A grown-up was saying something, although I did not hear it clearly, but I heard the child crying.”
Lu Jingyi, I will kill you.
Yun Hao’s eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Usually, he just dislikes it when his son sticks to his wife all the time, but he still values his son. Hearing that his son was beaten to tears…
Although he had not spent much time with his son, he knew that the little one seldom cries. Even after falling down, he would just get up and not cry. But now, Lu Jingyi had made him cry. She was unforgivable.
“Is the woman you saw wearing makeup, with curly hair, about this tall?” Meng Yunhan gestured Lu Jingyi’s appearance to Ayun.
“Yes, yes.” Ayun responded affirmatively twice in a row. She found it strange at the time too. The child looked quite okay and kept calling out ‘mom’, so she didn’t suspect anything.
“The child kept calling ‘mom’, ‘mom’. I thought then, that woman was his mother, otherwise why would a child keep calling ‘mom’….”
Son, Mom will find you. Son, wait for Mom.
Every sentence Meng Yunhan heard stabbed her heart, making it difficult for her to breathe. But her willpower told her that she could not collapse – her son was still missing, not back home yet, not safe yet. She could not collapse. She could not collapse.
