Chapter 101 - 101 Z Has Appeared
101 Z Has Appeared
In A City, it was well past six in the morning; Shen Yunci and the others had already woken up. Fortunately, it was Saturday, so Shen Yunci was not in a hurry to wake Lu Ning up.
When it was time for breakfast, Lu Jingzhi took the initiative to call Lu Ning.
He already felt that something was off. Ever since he discovered that Lu Ning would sneak out through the window every night, Lu Ning would look for him when she came back to tell him that she was safe.
After that, Lu Ning would go back to her own business.
However, this time it was already long past Lu Ning’s usual returning time. Lu Jingzhi covered up for her first in front of his parents, before returning to his room to get the spare key Lu Ning left for him.
He stealthily opened the door and entered Lu Ning’s room. There was no one in the room, and the window was still open; Lu Ning had not returned at all.
Lu Jingzhi’s heart was pounding as he gripped the key in his small hand; he had a bad premonition.
He quickly walked out of Lu Ning’s room and locked the door for her; then, he walked back to the dining table and sat down with his usual demeanor.
“Sister’s still sleeping and doesn’t want to get up. She said she’s too tired and told us not to wait for her.”
Shen Yunci and Lu Zhi did not suspect anything; rather, they both nodded and felt that it was a good thing.
“Ning’ning seems very tired these days. It’s good for her to rest more, so let’s not disturb her.”
“Yes, our Little Darling shouldn’t disturb Sister for now.”
Lu Jingzhi nodded obediently.
Lu Qing stared at him with an inquiring look, but did not ask anything there and then.
Lu Jingzhi wolfed down his breakfast and hopped off the chair.
“Daddy, Mommy, I’m done eating. I’m going back to my room to study.”
Shen Yunci looked at him in surprise. “So quickly? Well, go ahead.”
“Why is this child so urgent today?”
“Perhaps the students around him are also very smart, so he’s afraid he’ll fall behind.”
“That’s true. Our Little Darling is so smart, yet he’s still so eager to learn.”
Lu Zhi and Shen Yunci were eating and chatting cheerfully.
However, Lu Qing looked at the two of them, bewildered.
“He’s only in kindergarten. What’s this about falling behind or being eager to learn?”
Lu Zhi and Shen Yunci immediately stopped talking and looked at him, before exchanging glances with each other.
Shen Yunci said with a smile, “Recently, when you sent our Little Darling to school, have you always been sending him to the kindergarten?”
Lu Qing did not quite understand. “Yes, why? Did he change schools?”
Lu Zhi also smiled. “Our Little Darling didn’t say anything to you?”
Lu Qing was puzzled again. “Say what?”
From this, Shen Yunci and Lu Zhiming understood that their youngest son was not fond of his eldest brother anymore. He was probably taking revenge for their sister.
Shen Yunci and Lu Zhi thought it was funny, so they did not say anything.
“Nothing, nothing. Let’s eat.”
The two of them puckered their lips and tried their best to hold back their laughter. In the end, Shen Yunci could not hold it in anymore, hugging her bowl and chortling.
Lu Zhi could not help but chuckle.
Lu Qing looked at them dubiously.

After Lu Jingzhi returned to his room, he sat by the bed and deliberated for a long time. In the end, he decided to take out his computer, and turned it on.
He was still young and could not check on his sister’s situation, but there was someone who could. This person had been searching for his whereabouts; if they got hold of his new location, they would definitely head there quickly. If his sister was in danger, this person might even be able to save her. He could not simply sit still, twiddling his thumbs.
Lu Jingzhi’s small hands flitted across the keyboard.
At the same time, something went wrong with the Huo family’s centralized system.
Huo Jinyan, who had just returned and was about to rest, received a call from Chu Ting.
“President Huo, bad news. Z has appeared.”
