The black SUV slowly moved along the winding tree-lined path.

Zhou Jing was driving, and the bodyguard who had just found the chubby boy was sitting in the passenger seat.

In the back seat, Jiang Yi had just changed the child into clean, comfortable clothes and touched the child's cold face. "Don't run around by yourself next time. You scared me to death just now."

The little fat boy licked the lollipop in his hand, his mind completely focused on the candy. He didn't listen to what his mother said at all, and just nodded perfunctorily.

Jiang Yi looked at him, sighed softly, and turned to look at the man beside her.

Pei Sangyu leaned back in his chair, his narrow eyes closed.

Jiang Yi knew he wasn't asleep.

She glanced ahead and reached out to press the center control button.

The partition slowly rose, completely separating the front and back seats.

"Ayu, Xiaochen didn't run around on purpose. Please don't be angry with him, okay?" Her voice was soft, with a hint of grievance in her tone.

Hearing this, Pei Sangyu slowly opened his eyes.

The man's dark pupils were cold as he looked at Jiang Yi with a calm tone, "He's six years old, old enough to know what's good and what's bad. Xiao Yi, I've always said that spoiling a child is the worst thing to do."

Jiang Yi pursed her lips, her eyes slightly red. "I know you have high expectations for him, but Xiaochen is different from other children. He suffered so much in his birth. I just can't bear to let him suffer any more."

The same rhetoric again.

Pei Sangyu was really tired of hearing it over the past six years.

He raised his hand and pinched his brow. "It's not easy to be the future heir of the Pei family. Once you have recovered, I will send Xiaochen to the old house. My mother will hire the most professional team to train him."

Jiang Yi's face turned pale, "You want to send Xiaochen away..."

"This is what my mother meant." Pei Sangyu said in a cold tone, closing his eyes. "This is also for Xiaochen's own good. Don't think too much. Finding that old Chinese doctor to regulate your body is the most important thing for you right now."

"I understand." Jiang Yi lowered her eyes and tightened her grip on the hem of her skirt.

……

The black SUV made a sharp turn along the path, drove forward for nearly a hundred meters, and finally stopped in the open space outside the three-story building of the Chinese medicine clinic.

Zhou Jing got out of the car, walked around to the back seat and opened the door.

Pei Sangyu bent down and got out of the car.

There is no snow in Sunset Town in winter, and the wind is bitingly cold.

Zhou Jing rubbed his hands, his nose and eyes were red from the cold.

He rubbed his hands and said, "Boss Pei, the house in front is Granny Hua's Chinese medicine clinic."

Pei Sangyu's black windbreaker fluttered in the cold wind, his long legs wrapped in his trousers as he walked towards the gate of the courtyard on the third floor.

The steps are steady and the posture is upright.

In comparison, Zhou Jing, who was shivering with cold, looked so weak.

Jiang Yi's health had not fully recovered in recent years. Even after getting out of the heated car wrapped in a thick long down jacket, she still couldn't help shivering.

She looked at the man in front of her who didn't even turn his head, and a look of loneliness appeared in her eyes.

Behind him, the chubby Pei Chen got out of the car and stamped his feet angrily, "What a lousy place! It's so cold, I don't want to walk. Dad won't hold me, and Mom won't hold me either! You both don't love me!"

Hearing this, Jiang Yi was stunned. She turned around, walked to her son, and squatted down. "Sorry, baby, mommy will hold you now, okay?"

Pei Sangyu turned around when he heard the voice and saw that Jiang Yi was actually planning to hug Pei Chen. His face suddenly darkened, "He's already so fat, and you're still hugging him?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yi's outstretched hand froze completely in mid-air.

Upon hearing this, Pei Chen immediately sat on the ground and burst into tears, "Dad is so bad! Dad dislikes me!"

Pei Sangyu looked at the boy rolling on the ground, with his facial features that were so fat that they were almost squeezed together, and felt an inexplicable disgust in his heart.

It was obvious that this was the child that he and his lover Jiang Yi had worked so hard to get, their only child, and the future heir of the Pei family.

However, over the past six years, whenever he looked at Pei Chen, he always felt inexplicably irritated.

But his memory kept reminding him that he should love his son Pei Chen.

Jiang Yi felt a little aggrieved when she saw that Pei Sangyu had no intention of coaxing Pei Chen, but she also knew that she couldn't let Pei Chen continue to make trouble at this time.

She had no choice but to help Pei Chen up from the ground and brush the dust off him.

Pei Chen suddenly pushed her away.

Jiang Yi let out a low cry and fell to the ground unexpectedly.

She stared at her son in disbelief.

Pei Sangyu's expression turned stern. He stepped forward to help Jiang Yi up, his cold gaze falling on Pei Chen's face. "Pei Chen, have I not dealt with you for too long?"

Pei Chen was stunned.

A few seconds later, even more earth-shaking cries broke out.

The sound was deafening in this quiet town.

Niannian, who was watching ants moving under the banyan tree in the yard, heard the noise and looked outside.

"Whose unfortunate child cries so loudly?" He stood up, his pretty face full of disgust. "Mom's headache is most afraid of this kind of noise!"

He decided to educate this ignorant little brat.

Clapping her hands, Niannian quickly walked towards the door.

But just as he stepped onto the steps of the gate, a familiar voice came from behind him, "Xu Younian, where are you going?"

After a meal, he turned to look at the person who came.

Chi Yu's cold facial features carried a hint of severity.

This expression is familiar to everyone. This is how Ms. Chi Yu looks before she scolds someone.

"Godmother, I just want to go out and see whose child is crying. He's crying so loudly that it's going to give Mom a headache."

Chi Yu walked over, looked at the impish Nian Nian, squatted down and looked him in the eye, "Have you forgotten your mother's instructions? You can't go out by yourself without an adult."

"Just in front of the house." Niannian pouted, obviously having been dissatisfied with such rules for a long time.

"obedient."

Chi Yu touched his head and looked at his face, still thinking of Pei Sangyu.

It’s no wonder they are so nervous. It’s just that Nian Nian is becoming more and more like Pei Sangyu.

Recently, due to the development of tourism in Xiyang Town and the increase in the number of people seeking medical treatment, they began to worry that once Nian Nian's face was exposed, it would trigger a series of butterfly effects.

So, it is better to be cautious.

Anyway, in another month, once the visas are processed, they will be able to take Nian Nian abroad.

"I heard recently that human traffickers have come to town. They love smart and good-looking kids like you."

Chi Yu frowned, his expression very serious. "Think about it yourself. We have lived here for so long. When have you ever heard a child crying at your doorstep?"

Niannian frowned and thought carefully, "It seems that there really isn't..."

"You see, this is a new type of kidnapping scam, specifically using the sound of a child crying to lure children who are not home with adults to open the door."

Nian Nian's eyes widened in shock. "Really? Godmother, lying will make you ugly."

Chi Yu calmly took out his phone and clicked on a related popular science video. "Here, watch it for yourself."

Chi Yu was not lying. There had indeed been reports of this new type of kidnapping circulating online recently.

After watching it, Nian Nian felt uneasy, "What about the child crying outside our door now..."

"It's the recording played by the traffickers." Chi Yu lied with his eyes wide open. "It's okay, go back to the house first, I'll call the police now."

Because of that popular science video, Nian Nian now believes it very much. When he thinks about how he almost got deceived and kidnapped by human traffickers, he turns around and runs back to the house without saying a word, and jumps straight to the master bedroom on the third floor.

It's so scary. It's so dangerous for a smart and beautiful child to live in this world. He needs to find his mother quickly to hug him and calm down!

Chi Yu looked at his running little figure with a serious expression.

She turned to look at the closed door and sighed heavily.

Taking out her cell phone, she called Xu Jiayun, "Niannian went upstairs to look for you. I lied to him that there were human traffickers outside the door, but if I'm not mistaken, it should be Mr. Pei who came."
