Chapter 171: Heavy Whalloping
An Yan heaved a sigh of relief and pushed his luggage over. “Master, are you alright?”
Upon seeing the scared child in his arms, Jun Shiyan could not help but feel moved. Even his voice softened as he coaxed him. “It’s alright.”
Xiaoqi looked at the man in front of him, who was wearing sungla.s.ses and a mask, and kept hugging his arm tightly. It took him a long while before he regained his senses. His soft, tender voice trembled after his shock. “Uncle, thank you.”
An Yan was dumbfounded. This was the first time he had seen Master speak so gently to a child.
Furthermore, the ice-cream in the child’s hand was all on him, and his clothes were in a pathetic state.
“Where’s your family? Why are you alone?” Jun Shiyan’s chest felt stuffy for some reason as he placed the child on the ground.
What kind of family abandoned a child at the airport?
“I’m going to the washroom. I’ll be back soon.” Xiaoqi took a look in the direction of the washroom. It was already blocked by someone. Grandpa would definitely not be able to get out. He was a little worried.
An Yan looked at the child. There was a lot of ice-cream on his delicate face. He was wearing a black suit, which made him look handsome and cool. However, his eyes looked familiar.
Jun Shiyan pulled the child over and wiped the ice-cream off his face seriously. When he saw the child’s sweet smile, an image of Ling Sheng appeared in his mind.
The child’s eyes, in particular, narrowed when he smiled. His smile was very similar to her smile, and his heart softened instantly, his actions becoming gentler.
“Follow me to the departure lounge first. I’ll get someone to call your parents.” Jun Shiyan took the child’s hand.
Xiaoqi shook his head hurriedly. Mommy had said before that he was not allowed to leave with strangers. His big eyes were full of vigilance as he looked at the strange uncle in front of him and said crisply, “Uncle, I’m waiting for my parents here. You must be very busy. Go ahead and leave. Thank you.”
When he saw the alertness in the child’s eyes, Jun Shiyan’s heart sank. This was the first time he had spoken so patiently to a child. “I won’t hurt you. Wait here. What if they come back later and someone b.u.mps into you?”
“No, I’m very powerful. I’ll dodge.” Xiaoqi did not know what this uncle was up to, but he was very vigilant.
Did he want to abduct and sell children? The children who were kidnapped in the films shown to him by his mother were pitiful after losing their parents.
Xiaoqi was planning to avoid this uncle and look for Grandpa. Grandpa would definitely give him a heavy whalloping.
An Yan stayed back. The kid in front of him was smart and vigilant. He probably thought Master was a human trafficker. This was the first time he had seen Master suffer. He wanted to laugh at him, but he did not dare.
Jun Shiyan compromised. “Then I’ll wait for your parents with you. Who brought you here?”
Xiaoqi was about to reply when he saw an old couple coming over. He jumped up excitedly and dashed over. He had seen his saviors, so he did not have to be pestered by this strange uncle anymore. “Great-grandpa, great-grandmother, Xiaoqi is here!”
Su Xiyin and Huo Xiao had searched around the exit for a long time, but there had been no sign of them. The Old Master was still fuming. He should not have believed that sc.u.mbag Huo Ci’s words.
“Xiaoqi!” Su Xiyin had missed the child dearly. She went up to him and gave him a kiss. “Did you miss your great-grandmother?”
