[Warning: New Characters Alert in these few Chapters! Hope you enjoy!]"Why does this kid look just like Brother Yong?!"
However on second thought, Song Xia doubted it.
"No, Brother Yong doesn"t have any kid.."
Moreover this boy looked like he"s six or seven years old already and she was sure that her parents were not aware of any kid or something..
Song Xia soon calmed down as she smiled and gently asked to the small boy, "Little kid, where are your parents?...Did you get lost?"
The little boy nodded his small head and said calmly, "I lost my mother… Big Sister, can you help me find her?"
Song Xia was dazed when she saw how composed the little kid was, even when he was lost and couldn"t find his mother.
"This kid really bears resemblance to my brother, even in terms of composure and face! I"m starting to suspect if this is really his kid..
But Brother Yong couldn"t have had hid his son from us all this while right.."
If he really had been doing so, she wondered: why would he do that?
She felt really puzzled.
Just as Song Xia was wondering, Ellen nudged her arm lightly which made her come back to her senses.
She shook her thoughts away from her mind and asked the kid, "Tell me what exactly happened. How did you get separated from your mom?"
The little boy replied expressionlessly, "I came to watch an animated movie with my mother. After the movie ended, my mother told me to wait for her outside the washroom.
"While I was waiting, I thought I saw my mother leave so I followed her. But I was mistaken and when I realized that, it was too late. I was lost here until I b.u.mped into you."
Song Xia was once again surprised at how he could talk so smoothly and fluently at a time like this.
If it were other kids in his shoes, they would"ve panicked or even cried.
But the little guy in front of her seemed to be much more mature and composed compared to them.
She turned to Ellen and asked softly, "You know where the washroom is?"
The latter shook his head, "I"m a busy businessman; I don"t have enough time to rest, much less watch a movie—"
Before he could continue his story-telling, Song Xia had already gone to ask the pa.s.sersby whether they knew the way to the washroom.
Ellen was speechless.
Suddenly, he felt a tug on his pants. He lowered his head and asked indifferently, "What?"
The little kid tilted his small head which made him appear cute but the words that came out of his mouth were not cute at all: "Uncle, what"s wrong with your suit? It"s hurting my eyes to look at you."
Uncle Ellen, who was indirectly called an eyesore, "…"
Ellen took a deep breath before pointing at Song Xia"s back, "You call her Big Sister; then why do you call me Uncle?"
Shouldn"t it be Brother instead?!
The little kid expressionlessly said, "Because you look old."
"Old" Ellen spat mouthful of blood in anger: "…"
"…From which angle do I seem old?!" Ellen had never heard anyone call him "Uncle" or "Old" in his life.
The little kid grinned evilly, "Every angle."
Ellen: "…You!" He grabbed the little punk but before he could do anything else, Song Xia returned back.
Seeing him aggressively pulling at the cute little kid, Song Xia frowned as she yelled, "Ellen! What do you think you"re doing?!"
The little kid pitifully glanced at her, which made her heart ache. She turned to Ellen and scolded him angrily, "Why are you bullying a little kid?!"
Ellen widened his eyes as he put on a wronged expression, "This punk was the one who—"
Song Xia didn"t let him finish and turned to the little kid to ask what happened.
The little kid obediently answered, "I merely called him old and he beat me."
Upon hearing his sad tone, Song Xia felt a motherly feeling rise in her heart as she berated Ellen, "He"s just telling the truth; why would you beat him?!"
Ellen was dumbfounded, "You believe this guy"s words yet you don"t believe me! I"m telling you…"
Halfway through his sentence, Ellen paused when he found out that something was wrong. "Wait, did you just say that I"m old?!"
Song Xia nodded her head as she ignored him and instead consoled the little kid. This made Ellen instantly explode in anger.
"Xiao Xia, I"m warning you; this kid is up to nothing good! He could"ve just found anyone else to search for his mother or the washroom yet he chose us which means that he is intentionally trying to get close to us!
"Moreover, his story is full of loopholes! My sixth sense is telling me that something"s not right about him!" Ellen warned her in a low tone.
The little kid tilted his head cutely and perplexedly looked at the two of them, which made both of their hearts melt in his cuteness.
Even Ellen found him quite cute.
But the next minute, he took his thoughts back when he heard the "cute" kid say, "Uncle, I"m not a spy. I asked for your help because we"re both Chinese..
"Furthermore, I didn"t ask you to help me; I only asked Big Sister for help. It has nothing to do with you!"
Ellen gritted his teeth as he rushed at him, "You!"
Song Xia pinched her brows as she grabbed his collar and stopped him from getting close to the kid.
"Uncle- Err, Ellen, can you stop it?!"
Because of frustrations, she nearly called him Uncle!
She took a deep breath before warning him, "I"m telling you if anything happens to him, I won"t spare you!"
