Chapter 145 Torn Paper

What he said was both arrogant and domineering. Even if the child had a beautiful face, he had a disgusting personality.

The stone flew past Qin Wanru’s ear. Qin Wanru did not expect that such a beautiful child to suddenly hit someone so impulsively. She did not resist, but only felt a strong wind blowing in her ear. She reached out to touch it and felt a numb pain on her earlobe. The stone must have hit her earlobe.

Yujie came over to see and screamed, “Miss, your ear is bleeding!”

Her tender white earlobe became red, and there was a small wound from where the blood dripped slowly.

Qin Wanru held the handkerchief to her earlobe, but still smiled.

“Why are you so fierce?”

The boy was arrogant before, but he didn’t mean to be hit someone. He stared, trying to cover his guilt.

“It is none of your business!” he said, swallowing hard.

“Fine. I will leave you alone. You’re just stuck here!” Qin Wanru stood up and looked around. “Nobody will come here. The banquet at the Princess’s Mansion is about to begin. And this area is very remote. Maybe it will be still like this in the evening. This place is not clean. Who knows what will come out in the evening?”

Qin Wanru finished speaking and gave a sympathetic look at the kid, who had his eyes wide open in panic but still tried to hide his fear.

“Yujie, let’s go quickly in case something unclean comes out to eat people. It’s said that this kind of thing specialize in eating kids,” Qin Wanru said with false concern.

“Miss, that worries me too. Will… will this be?” Yujie opened her mouth, pointed at the boy on the ground. His whole body was trembling.

Even though he always tried to hide his emotion, he still nervously closed his eyes and stubbornly refused to ask for help. He bit his lips until they were while. Seeing that Qin Wanru and Yujie were really ready to leave, he shouted loudly, “If you don’t pull me out, I will kill you after I get out!”

“Ah, that’s great. We will see you tomorrow, but I don’t know if you will still be here!” Yujie turned her head, looking him up and down for a while. She winked proudly at him, then ignored him and went forward.

The two of them, one after another, kept and disappeared behind the door of the small cavern.

The wind shifted the leaves across a hole in the stone, making an eerie noise.

When he hadn’t noticed it, the boy had been calm, but now he was terrified. He started to cry.

“Sister, sister, come quickly to save Hao’er. Hao’er will not be so fierce. Come save Hao’er!”

He tried hard to struggle forward, but his little body was stuck there and could not get out.

The more he thought, the more scared he became. His whimper turned into crying, and his face grew white. He stared at where Qin Wanru had disappeared, and tried hard to reach out.

“Sister, come save me! Sister, come to save me!”

He looked very pathetic, no longer arrogant.

Qin Wanru suddenly appeared at the gate of the cave and blinked her large black eyes.

“Are you still cursing or not?” she asked.

“No! no, sister help me!”

The cruelty on the boy’s face had already disappeared. All that remained was surprise that she had come back. He shook his head and looked like an abandoned child.

Even Yujie, who disliked him before, couldn’t help but side with him.

“Miss,” she began.

Qin Wanru came over, and she squatted beside the boy. Her big bright eyes were full of a gentleness.

“Will you really not swear and hit people casually?”

“I will not swear and hit people!” The boy nodded again and again.

Qin Wanru carefully wiped the dust off the boy’s face with her handkerchief.

“Will you be well behaved?”

“Yes, sister, Hao’er will behave!” The boy nodded his head, and his big watery eyes seemed to be able to speak. He kept nodding.

When she wiped him clean, she revealed a face as beautiful as carved jade.

Seeing him become smartt and sensible, Qin Wanru looked at the place where he was stuck. In fact, the hole was not small, but there was a brick wedged in the front. The child had been careless and managed to wedge himself in.

After figuring this out, Qin Wanru had Yujie pry out the stone, then carefully help the child down.

After the boy was out, Qin Wanru took him to the corridor to sit down and cleaned up the dust and mud on his hands with her handkerchief.

“Who did you come here with?” It was impossible for such a young child to come out and play alone. Judging by his clothes and his threats, was not a child from an ordinary family. Moreover, if he’d been invited to the banquet today, those who came with him were not ordinary people.

“The nurse was here just now… I wanted to climb into the hole… She said she would get me something to eat… and then she was gone!” he answered through sobs, his little pink face was crumpled into a ball.

Qin Wanru frowned. The nurse was careless to leave such a young kid alone and go to get food.

As a matter of fact, it was really weird.

She did not know the boy’s background, so she couldn’t risk asking more about his family. Instead she decided to change the topic.

“Why did you think of climbing in the hole?”

“I… I saw that Prince Xin climb in. He… he climbed out and came back… which seemed interesting…” he replied, still sobbing.

Qin Wanru was still holding the boy’s hand and cleaned up his fingers for him one by one.

“Prince Xin climbed in? Is that the hole?” Qin Wanru’s face became strange.

“He did. I saw him… but… but it was not this hole. The nurse said that it was a hole that led outside. This hole is in the mansion, which is safer…” The boy replied, stretching out his hand and gently pushing Qin Wanru. He blushed and was bashful. “Sister, does your ear still hurt? It’s Hao’er’s fault.”

He liked this sister, a gentle girl who could play with him and help him clean up with such care. In the past, that was all done by the servants in the mansion. But even they sometimes just cleaned him up carelessly, and said that he’d just get dirty later.

“Sister is fine. It doesn’t hurt. Don’t worry, Hao’er! Sister wants to know how you got somewhere so remote.” Qin Wanru felt it funny and touched the boy’s downy hair, feeling tender He was actually a kind child. She didn’t know why he pretended to be so arrogant. In fact, he was softhearted.

If he really wanted to hit her, he would have thrown at her body. The target was more obvious, but he’d thrown up and to the side.

“It was the nurse who told me that there were few people here and that it would be fun. We just happened to see the sneaky Prince Xin, so we followed him over. Then he left, leaving me with the nurse!” the boy answered articulately.

“Where are the adults of your family? Why do they feel fine to let a nurse take you away? Where are those around you?” Qin Wanru always felt that there was something wrong about it. If the nurse really had evil designs, it was very easy for an accident to occur.

“Hao’er doesn’t have parents!” The boy’s head drooped down. He pursed his lips and his eyes turned red again. He tried hard not to cry, showing his best tough smile, but the smile looked sadder than if he’d been crying.

Qin Wanru sighed inwardly, and held the child in her arms, patting him gently on the back. The boy suddenly choked up again, stretched out his small fat hands like an octopus holding Qin Wanru, and buried his head in her arms.

He had no parents. No wonder that even a wet nurse didn’t have good intentions. She knew how it felt to be parentless, and patted him on the back in sympathy.

She was not the only fatherless and motherless child in the world.

This child, whose family background was unknown, had the same fate as her…

Everyone at Great Elder Princess Rui’an’s mansion was panicking because her grandson was missing. It was said that the matter had something to do with Prince Xin, so Prince Xin was immediately led to the backyard. After her personal questioning, Great Elder Princess Rui’an herself followed Chu Liuxin to the cave in the corner of the back wall, but there was still no one there.

Great Elder Princess Rui’an was so worried that she almost fainted. Chu Liuxin had to work to climb to the cave to look for him by himself. It was no big deal to climb in private, but there was a big crowd. He would be punished after getting back to the imperial palace. This was unexpectedly troublesome.

The grandson of Great Elder Princess Rui’an was really annoying. How did the boy have learned this from him?

Next time, he would find a chance to rough him up. Last time, he’d been so charmed that he’d gave him his favorite newly made football.

Not only did Chu Liuxin lose his temper, the whole mansion was in chaos. Qin Wanru was holding the child, who had dozed off. Qin Wanru was not sleepy, but the boy kept crying and fell asleep in her arms. Qin Wanru’s wasn’t strong enough to hold the fat boy, but he held onto her tightly. She was afraid to wake him up, so she had to sit down and ended up falling asleep!

Yujie wanted to reach out and hold the child, but Qin Wanru refused. Instead, she wandered off bored.

Not far away from them, a servant girl appeared . She seemed very surprised to see Qin Wanru there. When she saw Qin Wanru holding a child in her arms, she hid quickly.

After a long time, the servant girl reappeared, looked around furtively, and dropped a note on the ground, which read: “Qin Wanru… kid…”

The piece of torn paper blew with the wind…
