The couple looked at the child and felt something was wrong, but they didn't take it too seriously at first.

The wife said, “Maybe he’s tired.”

They also played with the children for nearly an hour, so it was normal for them to feel tired or sleepy.

The man frowned, then weighed the child and asked him, "Xiao Wen, are you sleepy?"

The child named Xiaowen shook his head, didn't say anything, didn't look at his father, and didn't let go of the hem of his clothes.

The wife also felt something was wrong.

"Xiao Wen, are you unhappy because I didn't buy you that little rattle just now?"

She reached out to hold her son's hand, and seeing him grabbing the hem of his clothes, she tried to pull the hem of his clothes out of his hand.

Unexpectedly, Xiaowen held it very tightly and couldn't be pulled open.

Xiaowen just shook his head again.

Yin Yunting stood in front of them and watched.

Seeing them like this, he spoke.

"You two, are your children frightened?"

The couple's attention was already on their son. When they heard Yin Yunting say this, they realized that the young man had not left and was still standing there looking at their child.

Their hearts suddenly tensed up, and they looked at Yin Yunting with suspicion and vigilance.

I heard there are many people who steal children.

Could this be targeting their children?

Their Xiaowen is fair and plump, and looks very cute. Many people who see Xiaowen will praise him a few words. Just now, they went out for a stroll and met a food vendor. The shopkeeper even gave Xiaowen a piece of cake.

It means praising them for their ability to raise children and make them like little fairies.

But they didn't think Yin Yunting was a bad person.

Is there anyone who kidnaps children and looks so handsome and dresses so elegantly?

"I wasn't frightened and I was fine along the way." The man was still very vigilant. He replied to Yin Yunting and walked to the front of their room with the child in his arms.

"Big brother..." Yin Yunting called him again, "Do you want me to help you look after the child?"

"no need."

The man urged his wife to open the door, and the couple hurried in with the child and slammed the door.

Yin Yunting also heard the sound of them locking the bolts.

He sighed softly and went into the room.

After the couple entered the room, they looked at each other and both breathed a sigh of relief.

"Husband, are we too nervous? That young man doesn't look like a bad person."

The man thought for a moment and said, "Although he doesn't look like a bad person, it's never a bad thing to be careful. It's also a bit strange that he said Xiaowen was frightened for no apparent reason."

As he spoke, he put his son on the bed, asked him to sit, and squatted in front of the bed, looking at his son.

Xiao Wen looked at him quietly, with no special expression on his face.

It doesn't look like he's frightened.

Besides, if the baby was really frightened, he would definitely have a frightened reaction at the time, such as screaming, crying, or suddenly turning around to ask for a hug, trembling, a terrified expression, and so on.

But when they thought about it, Xiaowen had never behaved like this during this trip.

"Xiao Wen wasn't frightened." The man frowned, "But there is something wrong with him. When has our son ever been so quiet?"

He is very lively and active. If you take him to the street, he will play until he doesn't want to go back. He is interested in all the stalls on the street and wants to take a look.

If he is tired from playing, he will definitely feel listless and want to sleep when he comes back.

But now Xiaowen doesn’t look like he’s sleepy or tired, and there’s not a trace of sleepiness in his eyes.

"Xiao Wen, tell your mother, what's wrong with you?" The wife also sat on the bed and asked her son softly.

Xiaowen shook his head and still said nothing.

"Are you tired? Want to go home?" the wife continued to ask.

Xiaowen lowered her head and tugged at the hem of her clothes again.

Now he finally stopped looking ahead and lowered his head. He used to do this when he was unhappy.

The couple breathed a sigh of relief when they saw his action.

"I guess he's missing his grandmother." The man said, "His grandmother loves him the most. This time we came to the capital, we have been separated from his grandmother for more than half a month, so it's natural that he will miss her."

The wife nodded, "Didn't we just see a lady who looked a bit like mother? Xiaowen probably saw it too."

They coaxed their son.

Yin Yunting and the others packed up and went downstairs to eat together.

Qingyin, Qingbao and the others have asked the kitchen to serve three tables of food.

After sitting down, Yin Yunting lowered his voice and talked to Lu Zhaoling about the child upstairs.

"He looked like he was out of his mind," he said.

Lu Zhaoling frowned.

"I heard them say they encountered a funeral?"

"Correct."

"What a coincidence."

Lu Zhaoling thought this was really strange.

When she and Mrs. Jin passed by here, they encountered a funeral procession. When she came here today, she heard someone say that they encountered a funeral procession again.

"They also said that some vendors on the street were muttering that there have been a lot of funerals in Mengjiang City recently." Yin Yunting said.

Then this is even stranger.

Is it normal that so many people died?

"Senior Sister, do you want to go up and take a look at the child?" Yin Yunting asked.

Lu Zhaoling looked at Jie Chi.

Xiaojie was sitting at their table and eating very quietly, but there was already quite a bit of food in the small bowl in front of him.

They ordered several vegetarian dishes, and Xiaojie's eyes lit up when he saw the dishes coming out.

Now his cheeks were bulging from eating so much. He felt Lu Zhaoling's gaze on him, so he stopped eating and looked up at her.

He was stunned for a moment, then asked vaguely, "Master Lu, do you want to use me?"

Lu Zhaoling laughed, "You are quite smart."

Just one look from her and he understood it immediately?

If she just went upstairs and knocked on the door, saying, "Brother and sister-in-law, let me see your child," the other party probably wouldn't give her a good look.

She also didn't have the habit of taking the initiative to step forward to save people.

But thinking that the child was only two or three years old, it would be hard to just sit back and do nothing.

It’s different now that I’ve quit eating.

"Master Lu, please speak." Xiao Jie swallowed his food, put down his chopsticks, and sat upright waiting for Lu Zhaoling to assign him a task.

Lu Zhaoling said, "There is a family of three upstairs. The child is younger than you. Go up and knock on the door to see if there is anything wrong with the child."

Jie Chi was stunned for a moment, "That's it?"

"Yes, just come and tell me after you've seen it."

"Don't you need to throw me out?" Jie Chi asked.

"That child is only two or three years old. If he is thrown over to you, are you going to hit him?" Lu Zhaoling couldn't help laughing again.

Jie Chi sighed lightly.

Donor Lu was so kind to him that the tasks he assigned to him were so simple.

This way he would feel a little embarrassed when eating meals or snacks.

He was about to get up and said, "Then I'll go check it out now."

"Why are you in such a hurry? Let's eat first." Lu Zhaoling held him back.

When they finished eating, they went upstairs together again.
