The abandoned daughter of a wealthy family turns out to be a lucky charm, changing the fate of her e
Chapter 94 That older sister looks so much like my grandmother.
She looked around; the restaurant was bustling with people and filled with noise, but no one was crying.
But just as she was about to close her eyes, the crying started again.
But the housekeeper, Chu, didn't notice anything amiss; clearly, only she could hear the crying.
Shen Zhi pursed her lips, a strange feeling tugging at her heart, as if urging her to hurry up and find someone.
"Uncle Chu, I need to use the restroom. Please stay with Xin Xin. I'll be right back."
"Miss Zhizhi, are you alright by yourself?"
Shen Zhi pointed to the location of the restaurant's restroom and nodded, patting her chest:
"Right there, Zhizhi can do it."
Butler Chu trusted Shen Zhi. Since they were in the restaurant, he watched her walk to the restroom door and then looked away.
Taking advantage of the butler's inattention, Shen Zhi secretly slipped out of the restaurant while touching her jade gourd.
She quickened her pace following the sound of crying and found a little girl crouching and crying next to the bushes by the carousel.
The little girl, dressed in a blue and white princess dress, with soft light golden hair and skin as white as a porcelain doll, was squatting on the ground, tears streaming down her face.
Why are you crying? Where are your parents?
He Li noticed the princess shoes that had entered her field of vision, raised her tear-streaked face, and choked up, unable to speak clearly:
"I...I stared at the balloon for so long, and then Daddy disappeared...Waaaaah!"
Shen Zhi: ……
It turns out she was so engrossed in looking at the balloons that she lost sight of her father.
"Don't cry, I..."
"Waaaaah!"
"I'll take you to find some staff, it'll be quick..."
"Waaaaah! Hiccup... Waaaaah..."
Shen Zhi was helpless; she had never seen anyone cry more than her younger sister.
She had no choice but to squat down, her voice soft and steady, like a reassuring pill:
"Stop crying!"
He Li immediately shut her mouth, her eyes glistening as she stared at Shen Zhi.
"Don't cry, I'll take you to find the staff. There's an announcement, and you'll find your dad soon."
"good……"
He Li was timid. After getting lost, she hid behind a bush. There were few people passing by, and she didn't dare to cry loudly, so she was never discovered.
But the moment she saw Shen Zhi, she felt a strange sense of familiarity, and that feeling of closeness made her easily trust Shen Zhi.
That sense of closeness made her reach out her hand without any hesitation, and Shen Zhi gently took it.
Two small figures weaved through the crowd together, and soon Shen Zhi found the amusement park staff.
The older sister patiently inquired and immediately made an announcement to find the person.
While waiting, Shen Zhi noticed that He Li kept staring longingly at the ice cream in the freezer, and had licked her lips no less than five times in a minute.
His craving was obvious.
Shen Zhi pursed her lips; she wanted to eat too.
But she already ate one during the day, and if her older brother found out, he would definitely be unhappy.
But, what can I do when my older brother isn't here right now? ^.^
Shen Zhi skillfully used her little genius phone to buy two ice creams, one matcha and one chocolate.
"Lily, which flavor do you want?"
He Li couldn't hold back any longer and said in a soft voice, "I choose green."
"You like matcha flavor? Here you go."
Holly took a small lick, the cool sensation instantly soothing her parched lips. This was the best ice cream she had ever eaten! It was better than any she had ever had before!
"Because green symbolizes hope!" He Li licked it several times, finally becoming more familiar and lively. She stood very close to Shen Zhi, holding an ice cream in one hand and grabbing Shen Zhi's clothes with the other.
"You still remember hope, huh?"
"Mmm! Lily knows, Lily just wants her older sister to let her try the chocolate-flavored ice cream too~"
Shen Zhi choked.
This little girl is really not afraid of strangers at all. As soon as we met, she ran away as soon as I called her name, and then she even tried to eat what was in her mouth.
Shen Zhi is somewhat possessive of her food.
She gave a mischievous smirk: "So, do you want to know what black symbolizes?"
"What?"
Shen Zhi quickly leaned over and bit off most of the matcha ice cream from He Li's hand. The cold made He Li wince, but she still giggled.
"Black symbolizes the devil, hehehe, now you only have half of it."
He Li looked at the ice cream that was now mostly gone from her hand, her lips trembling with a hint of grievance, as if she were about to cry.
"Hey, hey, hey, you're not going to cry again, are you...?"
Shen Zhi was pondering how to persuade him when a panicked, sweaty, blond-haired, blue-eyed man rushed in.
"Lily! Daddy's here!"
"Daddy!" Holly, upon seeing her father, instantly forgot the sadness of losing half of her ice cream, howling with excitement at finding her father again, "How come you only found Lily now? Waaah! Lily thought she would never see you again..."
"Daddy, you mustn't get lost again next time, or Lily will worry."
He Yun was so scared he almost fainted. He was afraid his wife would beat him to death if he lost Lily.
The Li family had also lost a child many years ago, which was a great pain for the whole family. The wife cherished Lili more than her own life.
"I'm sorry, it's all Daddy's fault! It won't happen again!" He Yun hugged He Li tightly, and the two of them cried together.
The sound grew louder and louder.
Shen Zhi: ……
No wonder this little sister is such a crybaby, she takes after her father.
"I'm glad you found your dad. I'm going now."
Shen Zhi finished the last bite of ice cream in her hand, licked the area around her lips, and destroyed any trace of her sneaking a bite.
She kept an eye on the time; she had been out for about ten minutes. Her brother would be worried, so she waved and walked into the restaurant.
He Yun thanked He Li immediately after hearing that Shen Zhi had helped her.
However, upon hearing that He Li had so easily believed Shen Zhi, she couldn't help but reprimand her:
"Lily, you can't trust strangers anymore, okay? You should look for uncles and aunts in uniforms as soon as possible."
He Li nodded obediently: "But if that older sister hadn't helped me just now, I wouldn't have been able to find any uncles or aunts in uniform."
"She even bought Bingbing for Lily; she's a good person."
He Yun was speechless. His daughter had not only gone with a stranger, but had also eaten ice cream from a stranger... Fortunately, she had met a really good person.
Holly has her own set of good and bad ideas, and she is unwavering in them.
Her pink little tongue swept away that touch of green, and she said with a delighted expression:
"And, Dad, don't you think that older sister looks a lot like Grandma? When I first saw her, I thought I saw Grandma."
He Yun froze instantly, then looked sharply at Shen Zhi, who had already walked away, and an unbelievable thought popped into his mind:
There can't possibly be such a coincidence...
He Yun picked up He Li, and the two of them quickly followed Shen Zhi into the restaurant.
As soon as he entered, he saw Shen Zhi surrounded by two tall, handsome young men.
The little girl shrugged, as if she had appeased the group with just a few words.
Shen Zhi mentally gave herself a thumbs up for her cleverness. She said there were too many people in the women's restroom, so she waited in line for a long time.
This excuse is so perfect that no one will ever discover she just went out...
Of course, if He Yun hadn't come up to thank her afterwards... ๑_๑꧞
