Chapter 1406 - 1446: The Little One Is Acting Strange
At eight o’clock in the evening, Xiaocha took the little one back to the room to sleep.
Once the little one fell asleep, Xiaocha turned off the light and left.
However, as soon as Xiaocha left, the little one, who had just been asleep, opened his eyes.
He turned, turned his body sideways, and faced the balcony, looking worried, with no sign of sleepiness.
He stared at a certain spot in the darkness, clutching the pillow with his small hand, quietly watching for a long time, and finally, sleep got the better of him, and he gradually drifted off.
In the evening, Jun Moyan, who had been out on a business trip, returned to Jingyuan.
Qing Yi called him, saying An’an seemed to be looking for him, so upon returning, he went directly to the little one’s room.
At this time, the little one must be asleep.
To avoid waking the little one, Jun Moyan quietly opened the room door, only to find the lights on.
Did he forget to turn them off before sleeping? Or perhaps because he was alone on a floor without Jun Moyan, he was scared and left them on?
Jun Moyan pondered this as he walked in.
Upon entering, the empty bed made Jun Moyan pause, and his first reaction was to turn and look at the bathroom.
"An’an?"
The bathroom lights were off, but the door was open.
He walked into the bathroom and checked, but found nothing.
"An’an?"
Exiting the bathroom, he quickly scanned the room, then searched the balcony, the walk-in closet, and looked over the bathroom again, even checking behind the door and under the bed.
Nothing.
Seeing the ruffled blanket in the middle of the bed, his concerned mind reached out to feel it.
The little one is small, but couldn’t hide here.
Unable to find him, Jun Moyan noticed the blanket was still warm, retaining heat.
Where did he go?
The room door was closed properly, and the lights were on; did he run outside?
Could he have gone to sleep in his room?
Jun Moyan quickly went to his own room to check.
His room was pitch black, with no sign of the little one, nor any evidence he’d been there.
Anxious, Jun Moyan ran downstairs to the surveillance room.
He’d disappeared the other day at the kindergarten, yesterday he ran out without a word at home, missing time and again.
It’s one thing during the day, but now in the middle of the night, he’s gone, where could he go if not playing?
Jun Moyan rushed to the surveillance room to view the monitors.
"Third Young Master, I found him, the young master is here."
The surveillance quickly picked up the little one’s image.
Jun Moyan looked at the screen showing the little one calmly sitting on a swing, and after his concern, he was burning with rage.
Turning, he briskly exited the surveillance room to find him.
On the way to find him, Jun Moyan’s anger grew more and more intense.
In these three years, even when the little one stole Wen Xiao’ai’s photos, he was never as angry as now.
Just yesterday, he’d taught him that wherever he went, even at home, he must inform adults.
He thought he would only wander during the day, but hadn’t expected he’d dare to run out silently at night.
Was it because he wasn’t home tonight, so he thought he could run amok?
Seeing the little one sitting quietly on the swing not far away, Jun Moyan was furious and shouted, "Jun Shi’an!"
No response.
Jun Moyan, still heated, didn’t notice anything amiss, instead becoming angrier at the little one’s inattentiveness.
He strode over.
He seemed ready to thoroughly educate him.
However, as Jun Moyan walked closer, he quickly noticed that something wasn’t right with the little one.
His steps slowed, observing the little one quietly sitting on the swing.
Jun Moyan grew increasingly aware of his strangeness.
"An’an?"
He called out tentatively, his voice neither too loud nor too soft.
The little one didn’t respond, as if he hadn’t heard Jun Moyan call him, or perhaps, hadn’t heard him at all.
