Chapter 137: Back to the Guan family
Guan Chibei carried Ye Lulu and the child as he rushed up the mountain. However, it was already too late. The heavy rain in the sky poured down. By the time he stepped into the village, he was drenched.
“Chibei?!”
“It’s you. You made it? You got them back?”
At the village entrance, a group of villagers had hesitant expressions and held torches in their hands. However, it was obvious that they were useless due to the rain. A large group of people happened to bump into Guan Chibei.
The village head was overjoyed as he looked at Guan Chibei carrying the child. “You didn’t lose the child, right?”
Guan Chibei wiped the rain from his face and nodded. The group of villagers said, “Hurry up and go back. It’s pouring. We’ll talk after the rain stops.”
Father Guan popped out from the crowd with an anxious expression. His eyes were bloodshot as he quickly took the eldest son from Guan Chibei and covered him with his outer clothes so that the baby would not be drenched in the rain. Then, he turned around and rushed home.
The villagers were woken by Ye Lulu’s shrill cry, but as Brother Wei had expected, they did not have time to chase him.
By the time the villagers rushed over with their clothes on, Brother Wei had already run far away. At that time, there were actually villagers who could make it, but when they saw the dark mountain path outside the village, they hesitated.
He had walked so far, so they might not be able to catch up to him. Furthermore, the mountain path was so dark and there was no one around. It was quite dangerous…
As the villagers hesitated, Ye Lulu had already chased after the culprit.
When one of the villagers saw the woman’s thin figure, he opened his mouth but couldn’t say anything.
When most of the villagers went to the Guan family, they could only save Father Guan, who had been beaten up. As for the remaining hooligans, they fled in all directions when they saw people coming. They entered the mountains as well, so the villagers didn’t know how to chase after them.
In the end, they escaped.
When Auntie Huang heard that something had happened to the Guan family, she rushed over as quickly as possible. Indeed, she picked up the two babies and took care of them.
However, when the villagers saw that they were missing a child, they fell silent. They were surprised and their expressions froze. This… this…
A child had been stolen.
One of the Guan family’s triplets had been carried away… Although it seemed that Ye Lulu had gone after them, how could a woman catch up to them? There was a ninety percent chance that this child would be lost.
How could the Guan family tolerate this? They did not know how the Guan family would howl.
Since they couldn’t see Ye Lulu and the child who had been carried away after a long time, they couldn’t just watch as well. Later, the villagers gathered and planned to look for them along the way.
They bumped into Guan Chibei at the village entrance.
It was raining cats and dogs, and it was not convenient for them to stand outside and talk. The villagers went home separately for the time being, and Guan Chibei and the rest returned to the Guan family.
In Ye Lulu’s room, Guan Chibei gently placed the unconscious Ye Lulu on the bed.
When they rushed back just now, they had no choice. Ye Lulu was also drenched. She was already muddy from the chase, and now, she was in a sorry state.
Her drenched black hair was draped over her face, revealing only a pale face and slightly pale lips.
Guan Chibei’s gaze swept past her face. Father Guan carefully placed the eldest son, whom they had spent so much effort to get back, back on the bed.
He took a deep breath, and his voice was hoarse. He said, as if he had just undergone a great calamity, “Fortunately, the child is back…”
Just the thought of it made his back turn numb. If the child was lost, their entire Guan family…
The eldest brother lay down with his brothers again, not seeming to have experienced anything dangerous.
The baby’s expression was still calm as he moved his little hands and looked up.
Father Guan’s heart beat even slower when he saw this. He praised, “This child is really bold! He doesn’t even cry or seem to be afraid!”
Guan Chibei was speechless. “…”
