Me at two years old, a queen!

Xu Tinglan patted An'an's head and nodded, feeling that this method was the safest. She suggested, "Let's wait here! The children have walked a long way anyway! Let's take this as a rest!"

Ni Hao and Su Shao didn't want to wait there, fearing they wouldn't be able to survive overnight. However, knowing there was no better option at the moment, they silently sat and waited.

Zhuangzhuang shared some beef jerky with Yangyang, then stuffed the rest into his own mouth and chewed, saying, "That's right~, let's just play here!"

Ni Hao slumped to the side, complaining in a low voice, "What are we going to do tonight? What are we going to do?"

Shen Yu and Ji Jianshu were still squatting there, studying the jumbled pile of stones, rearranging them again and again. Then Shen Yu stood up and said seriously:

"Look at this sun. This should be southwest. I looked at the map in my dad's hand, and if I remember correctly, this is the road we should take!"

Ni Hao and Su Shao had given up all hope of leaving, and at this point, they didn't take Ji Jianshu's words seriously. Xu Tinglan, on the other hand, felt it was safer to stay put, just to be on the safe side.

"Let's sit here and wait for a while. We've been walking for so long, your dads have probably found the place and will be back to pick us up soon!"

Seeing that they were all unwilling to believe it, Ji Jianshu pointed to the scratches on a nearby tree and said, "These scratches on the tree were just made; they must have taken this path!"

Perhaps it was the adventurous spirit in little boys, but Zhuangzhuang was also eager to try: "Then what are we waiting for? Let's go and show my dad what I'm capable of!"

Su Shao was fine as long as he wasn't resting; once he sat down, he didn't want to move anymore. He was worried about getting lost and also wanted to wait for Cheng Ge and the others to come back and pick him up.

Besides, he was the only grown man there, so he didn't dare to take the lead. He was sure he'd be torn apart by netizens if something went wrong. He said nonchalantly:

"What if this is a mark left by the production team when they scouted the location? Let's wait for Cheng Ge and the others to come and pick us up!"

These words not only deflated Shen Yu and his group of children, but even Ni Hao, who always avoided chores, couldn't stand it anymore. She didn't want to be homeless tonight.

"The grass along this route has never been stepped on before. If the production team really came to scout the location, wouldn't we be able to tell?"

Ni Hao immediately got up, pulled An'an to look at the scratch on the tree, and asked anxiously, "An'an, do you know what this mark your father made means?"

Seeing Su Shao awkwardly and angrily sulking to the side, Xu Tinglan didn't care about him being a grown man. She simply stepped forward gently and straightened An'an's sun-protective clothing.

"Yes, An'an, look, do you know what this symbol means?"

Xu Tinglan, also from a prominent family, noticed the well-hidden mark, so subtle it was almost invisible without close inspection. She suspected it was a unique symbol of the Lu family.

Large families like theirs usually have such specific markings, especially when someone of Lu Junxing's status travels, so that in case anything happens, family members can find him using these markings.

Seeing everyone looking at her expectantly, An'an scratched her head and thought for a moment. She had never seen such random scratches before.

An'an glanced back at the staff member following them with a camera, then grabbed the microphone on her chest and called out, "Daddy Duo~, Daddy Duo~, where are we going? Which road is my daddy taking?"

Xu Tinglan and Ni Hao were both stunned, not expecting An An to do this. However, normally the director wouldn't interfere.

Su Shao, who prided himself on having a considerable fan base in the entertainment industry and being a top performer, considered himself well-versed in its intricacies and casually remarked:

"How could the director just tell you that we guests have to find these things ourselves? Otherwise, the show would lose all its selling points!"

Before Ni Hao could say anything in dissatisfaction, Duo Duo and Zhuang Zhuang both grabbed microphones clipped to their chests and shouted:

"Daddy, we're lost! Which way should we go?"

Zhuangzhuang: "Daddy Duoduo~, did you hear me? Which road is my dad on? Please reply if you receive this! Please reply if you receive this!"

Duoduo: "That's right, Dad! Don't pretend you didn't see that!"

Upon hearing Zhuangzhuang's slogan, An'an picked up the microphone again and added, "Please reply if you receive this!"

"..."

Xu Tinglan didn't care how the children were behaving; her job was simply to look after them and ensure their safety. She only adjusted the sun-protective clothing for Ji Jianshu and Shen Yu, who didn't want to wear sunscreen.

But Shen Yu still insisted on his own idea: "Duo Duo's mom~, really! It's this way, I remember it's this way on the map~"

Seeing Xu Tinglan's troubled expression, Ji Jianshu knew that Xu Tinglan wouldn't dare to take them away casually, so he tugged at Shen Yu's sleeve and said:

"Geniuses are destined to be lonely! Let's look for other signs!"

Seeing Ji Jianshu's scholarly demeanor, Xu Tinglan smiled and patted Ji Jianshu's little head: "Alright! Let's look for it together! It's impossible that Brother Cheng and An'an's father would just leave a mark!"

Ji Jianshu felt the touch on his head and flinched away, standing there stunned, trying to recall the sensation. Only after Xu Tinglan had left did he murmur, "So this is what it feels like to be a mother~"

It was only when Shen Yu called him that he came back to his senses!

On the other side, An'an's shouts even had a rhythmic quality, making her little belly jiggle.

"Where is Daddy? Where is Daddy?"

Where is our dad?

"Daddy Duo~, please reply if you receive this!"

Duoduo: "Dad! Stop pretending to be dead!"

Jiang Yun, who was hiding under a tree, had a headache from their noise. She picked at her ears, and finally couldn't stand it anymore, so she shouted at the assistant director:

"You guys keep an eye on me, I'm going to get some peace and quiet! I can't stand this anymore!"

"Hey, Director Jiang, this won't do! Our ears can't take it anymore. Look, it's getting late, and Brother Cheng and the others have just put down their luggage and are heading back. Why don't we just tell them which way to go!"

Jiang Yun also felt that a little more time wouldn't make a difference, otherwise it really wouldn't be safe as it got late! So he waved his hand and let them go!

Su Shao was sprawled on the ground, almost asleep, when he heard An An's loud voice shouting, "This way! This way! Daddy Duo said this is the way!"

Zhuangzhuang: "Brother Shen Yu is amazing! It's right here!"

Duoduo: "Awesome! Little Shu, you guys are amazing!"

Before Su Shao and Ni Hao could react, An An had already excitedly rushed over and hugged Shen Yu and Ji Jianshu!
