However, he and his brother were not afraid. Not only were they not hurt by the bad guys, but they also joined forces to play with the bad guys, causing them to escape in the end.

When Jing Chen and Qin Lan heard Jing Yu’s words, they knew that he was comforting them. Although they did not believe it, it relieved some of the uneasiness in their hearts.

If only he could really come back so quickly.

Su Wan was extremely calm. She took out her phone and sent a message to the bodyguards who were secretly protecting Jing Hao.

After Lin Xi finished the call, she returned to the sofa and sat down. She looked into Jing Hao’s eyes. “Child, you’ve been missing for so long, yet your parents still aren’t looking for you. They don’t want you anymore, right?”

Lin Xi looked at Jing Hao with a faint smile, teasing him.

If she could sow discord between Jing Hao and his parents, it would be a small achievement, right?

Unexpectedly, Jing Hao ignored her and lowered his head to play by himself.

Lin Xi was ignored. The smile on her face froze, but she immediately adjusted her expression and prepared to continue.

It was difficult to break through an adult’s psychological defense, but it was easy to deal with a brat who was still wet behind the ears.

“Why aren’t you saying anything? I remember that you aren’t mute, are you like this at home too? It seems like your parents don’t treat you well either, or else how did you develop such a taciturn personality?” Lin Xi rambled on.

Jing Hao frowned and dug his ears with his little hand. He finally spoke, but he only said one word, “Noisy.”

His parents were the best parents in the world. How could they not treat him well?

Why was this woman lying through her teeth?

Lin Xi was stunned for a moment before she flew into a rage. She stood up with a dark face. “Little brat, don’t refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit. You better be careful that we don’t kill you in advance!”

Jing Hao was indifferent.

He wasn’t deaf, and his hearing had always been much better than ordinary people. When Lin Xi called, he heard the person on the other end say that they wanted to lock him up for a few days. Lin Xi didn’t dare to do anything to him.

Lin Xi suddenly felt that when facing a quiet person like Jing Hao, any threat she made was like hitting a ball of cotton, soft and powerless, unable to have any effect.

At this moment, Jing Hao’s stomach growled.

Ever since he was caught here after school, he had not eaten. At first, he could still tolerate it, but now, his stomach finally could not help but resist.

When Lin Xi heard the noise, she laughed again. “You’re hungry? If you beg me, I’ll buy you dinner.”

Jing Hao raised his eyelids and glanced at Lin Xi indifferently, not saying anything.

Alright, in the end, Lin Xi compromised.

Although Jing Hao was useful, she couldn’t let him starve.

Anyway, she had not eaten.

Lin Xi had originally planned to call someone to bring the food over so that she could watch over Jing Hao and not let him escape. Unexpectedly, during the few hours they spent together, Jing Hao acted very obediently. He didn’t cry or make a fuss, so she went out to buy it personally.

Another reason was that she wanted to go out and take a breath of fresh air. It was boring and stuff to stay with Jing Hao.

Seeing the door close, Jing Hao finally moved.

He got up and ran around the house. One moment, he picked up something, and the next moment, he tied the thread in his hand to another thing. Where his short hands could not reach, Jing Hao replaced it with something else.

After finishing all of this, Lin Xi still hadn’t returned. Jing Hao quickly went upstairs to the balcony to observe if there was anyone guarding outside.

As expected, there were two burly bodyguards standing at the main door.

Jing Hao went to the other rooms to observe if there were other exits, but some were already guarded by bodyguards.

Perhaps because he was a child, there were not many bodyguards.

Jing Hao silently memorized the locations and the number of bodyguards and had a plan in his heart.

Lin Xi returned an hour later. Jing Hao was still sitting obediently on the sofa. When she looked over, Jing Hao looked like a little brother who was ready to be fed at any time.

Lin Xi was stunned for a moment, but then she quickly shook her head, denying the thoughts that appeared in her mind.

Treating Jing Hao as her younger brother?

Miss would scold her to death.

When Jing Hao heard the sound, he turned to look at Lin Xi. His little heart was thumping, but his expression was calm, making it impossible to see anything unusual.
