Just as Mu Zhi was losing her mind, she watched from afar as Mu Xiaomu reached out to grab onto Lu Jinye’s hand with her own.

 

It looked as if she was pulling Lu Jinye along.

Mu Zhi was anxious beyond belief. She frowned as she watched them.

 

But it was too late. She couldn’t exactly run up and stop them. She watched as Mu Xiaomu tugged Lu Jinye out of the washroom and disappeared around the corner.

Mu Zhi rushed out of the washroom, ready to chase Mu Xiaomu down. Mu Xiaomu was holding onto the leg of Lu Jinye’s pants. He continued to walk, not slowing nor rushing with Mu Xiaomu following with toddling after him.

That was it. From today onwards, she was going to instill upon Mu Xiaomu the dangers of speaking to strangers. Especially good-looking ones!

Mu Zhi called the babysitter and asked her where she was. To her astonishment, she replied her, “Miss Mu, you told me that you didn’t need me to watch her because you’ve met up with her. I’ve just gotten home.”

“What’s happened now?”

Mu Zhi had initially wanted her to save her from this predicament but when she heard that the babysitter had reached home, she couldn’t bring herself to ask her. After all, she lived quite far, and her husband had been sick recently.

 

“Nothing. Nothing…”

Mu Zhi struggled to control her emotions, “I just… Wanted to check if you’ve gotten home safely.”

“Oh. Thank you Miss Mu for your concern. Yes, I’ve just reached home.”

The babysitter replied.

Mu Zhi hung up in a rush. She scrolled through her contact list but couldn’t find anyone who could help her out of this.

Just when she thought she was at the end of her rope, her phone rang. It was Jian Xiaoning.
