Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Bai Zhun looked at the words on the paper and his fingers clenched tighter and tighter, so tight that his knuckles turned white.

From the first day he met little Ajiu, it seemed that he had made the child suffer.

Even if he had not grown up, he was already a junior high school student after all. He had clearly told himself that he had to take good care of little Ajiu.

But in reality, he had been awful to her in the past two days.

He had avoided the child in everything. He had not even gone to pick her up from school.

Bai Zhun could even imagine how depressed the child must have been.

He was the one who had said that she would always be a member of the family, but he was also the one who had failed her.

Bai Zhun bit his lip. He did not even notice that his lip had been cut from how hard he bit himself.

In the end, Old Master Bai could not bear to see his grandson torture himself like this. “Let’s go. We’ll go to the mountain now to pick up little Ajiu.”

“No.” Bai Zhun suddenly raised his head. “Little Ajiu has never taken a bus before. She doesn’t even know the way back. Grandpa, I’m sure she hasn’t returned to the mountain yet. We have to find her! We have to use the Bai family’s connections! We have to find her through the surveillance cameras!”

This was the first time that Bai Zhun had taken the initiative to use the Bai family’s influence to do something.

The Bai family’s discipline had always been strict, and Bai Zhun had also been different from the other children in the military compound. He always seemed to rely on himself for everything since he was young. He had never let the family worry about him.

But now, it was simply an unprecedented exception.

At that time, Xiao Lin only felt that no matter how principled a person was, they would break these principles because someone else had popped up in their life, to the extent that this new person would make you behave unlike your usual self.

Was it at that moment that the ‘romantic love’ that was often mentioned by adults, was born?

The boys were still too young, so they had to rely on their families to get certain things done.

To call up the surveillance cameras, they had to go through many departments before they could call up the people on the streets.

The general rule was that no matter if it was children or women, they had to be missing for more than twenty-four hours before their family could file a report.

But in reality, everyone knew that twenty-four hours was too long. If little Ajiu really encountered any danger during this period, Bai Zhun would definitely regret it for the rest of his life!

He simply could not wait, and he did not want to wait.

The situation now was very obvious. Although little Ajiu had not been taken away by someone, no one could predict what would happen to her after she left the compound. No matter how good the security in the city was, there would still be human traffickers. Little Ajiu was only six years old and was already younger than the average child walking around on the streets, so it was inevitable that she would become the target of human traffickers.

Even if all of these did not exist, little Ajiu did not know her way around either.

Bai Zhun wished he had packed a pile of cash in her pocket the night before. That way, even if she had gotten lost, she wouldn’t starve.

It was almost ten o’clock. Whenever Bai Zhun thought about how the child might not get to eat lunch, his heart would clench in pain.

He had seen those dirty children under the overpass. They were all following the other adult beggars to ask for money from passersby.

He could not imagine how much his heart would ache if little Ajiu became like that.

He only hoped that his little Ajiu would meet a kind person, even if it was just to give her some food.

On this day, before the people in the city knew what was going on, they saw military vehicles driving in front of them. One look at the license plate of the vehicles told them that they were from the army.

“Is it another meeting?”

“That’s impossible. Wasn’t there a meeting just a while ago? If they were really having a meeting, there would definitely be people checking us in the subway. But there aren’t any checkpoints at the subway.”

“Then what’s going on with these military vehicles? There are a little too many of them.”

“I don’t know, but it’s really quite strange...”

Time passed slowly.

Little Ajiu had listened to the conductor’s advice and went to change bus, but she only became more confused. Why did this mountain look so different from the one she had lived on before?

The more little Ajiu looked at the mountain, the more depressed she became.

Knowing that this was not the place she was looking for, she took the bus back to the city.

As she sat there, the child felt sleepy. She held the little white cat in her hands, and her little head kept nodding. She looked very cute that way.

In addition, she was wearing a kasaya, which made her look even cuter.

After sitting in the bus for nearly half an hour, she heard the announcement that they were reaching the next stop soon. Little Ajiu rubbed her big eyes with her tiny hands and followed the people out of the bus.

“Xiao Bai, do you smell that? It smells so good here!”

Little Ajiu’s nose twitched as she carried the little white cat and her school bag while walking towards the source of the smell.

It turned out that little Ajiu had arrived at Wudaokou without realizing it.

Not only were there many schools, but there were also many people. There were also many things to eat.

Occasionally, one could hear people passing by speaking in Korean.

Little Ajiu tilted her little head and listened for a while. Then, she ran to the side of the road and looked at the uncle pushing the cart with her big eyes.

The uncle was still returning a customer change, but he looked down and met Little Ajiu’s gaze. When he saw that she was wearing a kasaya, he was stunned for a moment before he smiled. “Hello little one, are you hungry?” historical

Little Ajiu nodded.

The uncle swiftly flipped his hand and smeared the batter onto the pan. “Watch me make you a fried pancake. I’ll let you have a taste.”

There was a searing sound as the flour hit the oil.

Little Ajiu smelled the eggs inside, and she rested her little hands on the uncle’s pushcart.

The white cat jumped on her head and wagged its tail back and forth.

After the pancake was made, it was very hot. The uncle very considerately used two layers of paper to wrap the pancake before giving it to her. “Try it. How does uncle’s pancake taste?”

Little Ajiu was not afraid of the heat. As soon as she smelled the fragrant pancake smell, she took a big bite of it. Her little face swelled up as she ate. It looked very fragrant.

Even those who did not plan to buy any pancakes couldn’t help but stand in line when they saw little Ajiu eating it so cutely and deliciously.

Little Ajiu wasn’t full after eating just one pancake. After she finished the pancake that the uncle handed to her, she clapped her little hands and also stood in line with everyone else.

Since she was along a shopping area, everyone could not help but look at the young child wearing a kasaya standing in the middle.

Little Ajiu did not pay attention to this. As a foodie, she lifted up her small schoolbag as she thought of buying a few more pancakes in a while. She decided that the next time she saw Bai Zhun, she would give them to him to eat. He loved to eat pasta, so he would definitely like to eat pancakes too!

The child did not change her habit of nodding along when she agreed with her own opinion even when she was outside the house.

Everyone who was watching her felt their hearts almost melt. They almost died from the cuteness especially after the little girl took the pancakes, put the money in the uncle’s money box, and even bowed and chanted Amitabha. She was really like a little monk.

Little Ajiu had food on hand now, so she became energetic again. Just as she was about to think about where she should go next, she suddenly heard a scream not far from her!
