"Ah Ying, go and get some sweet soup for your grandma's table."

Zhou Miaoying was stunned for a moment before she realized that Yang Yunxia was talking to her. She happily said, "Oh, okay, Auntie, I'll go right away."

After Zhou Miaoying left, Yang Yunxia placed the tray on her seat and gave the bowl of sweet soup in the middle to Xia Yichu. Pei Shizhou glanced at it but didn't say anything. Luo Yuechuan, being considerate, helped carry the soup, giving everyone a bowl.

The sweet soup laced with drugs had already been given to Xia Yichu. Yang Yunxia didn't stop Luo Yuechuan; instead, she sat in Zhou Miaoying's seat and praised Luo Yuechuan.

"Xiao Chuan is so thoughtful. Come on, everyone, eat it while it's hot."

"Yunxia, ​​you've really put a lot of thought into this sweet soup, even making it into a small bowl."

Upon hearing Xia Renlan's words, Yang Yunxia's expression changed drastically. This was the plan she had devised last night, preparing the medicine in a small bowl to make it easier to administer to Xia Yichu.

"Auntie, this is more convenient."

Xia Renlan stopped talking and buried her head in her sweet soup. Yang Yunxia breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Xia Yichu. Xia Yichu was already full and didn't want to eat, but after hearing what the eldest aunt of the Xia family said, she looked thoughtfully at the sweet soup.

Yang Yunxia's heart, which had just been at ease, was raised again. She was very anxious, and Zhang Xiaohua was also anxious.

Xia Guofang took a sip of the soup; it tasted pretty good, and she was sure her youngest son would like it. Seeing that her son hadn't arrived yet, and knowing he usually loved sweets, she decided not to restrict his eating today, remembering how she'd upset him that morning.

"Xiao Chuan, go and call your younger brother over for some sweet soup."

"it is good"

"Shizhou, Xiaochu, why aren't you eating?"

Seeing that everyone had almost finished eating, except for Pei Shizhou and Xia Yichu who hadn't drunk any, Yang Yunxia couldn't help but ask them a question. Everyone at the table turned to look at them.

"I'm full and don't want to eat," Xia Yichu said.

"I don't like sweets," Pei Shizhou added immediately.

"Xiao Chu, the chef your brother hired used to be the head chef of a state-run restaurant. You should try it, it's quite delicious. Shi Zhou, you should try it too, the soup is sweet but not cloying."

Xia Yichu and Pei Shizhou ignored Yang Yunxia. They didn't believe there wasn't something fishy about the soup. Since they knew something was wrong, they refused to eat it; if the spiritual spring water couldn't cure her, she'd be doomed.

"Yunxia, ​​if you ask me, you shouldn't try to be nice to someone who doesn't reciprocate your feelings."

Yang Yunxia's face flushed red with anger and frustration at Xia Renshu's words. She composed herself and was about to speak again when Luo Yuechuan rushed in anxiously.

"Mom, my little brother is missing."

Luo Yuechuan searched the entire courtyard and then the nearby alleys, but he couldn't find his brother.

"What? I didn't tell you to keep a close eye on your brother and stay by his side every step of the way. What kind of older brother are you? You only care about eating, drinking, and having fun, and you don't care about your brother at all. Do you wish something would happen to your brother?"

Xia Guofang stood up and berated Luo Yuechuan, who burst into tears. He had just gone out to look for his younger brother when his aunt called him to get a fruit platter, and he clearly saw his brother playing in the yard.

She just came in with a fruit platter, took a sip of soup, and went out, but her younger brother couldn't find her anywhere. Normally, there wouldn't be any worry, as Luo Yuekai is very familiar with this place. The main concern is that he might have been taken away by Xu Yumei.

He doesn't know yet that his family kicked Xu Yumei out; if he did, he'd definitely cause a scene. Luo Yuechuan does know; his brother Zhiheng told him about it and asked him to keep an eye on his younger brother.

"Guofang, you've gone too far. How can you say such things about Xiaochuan?"

Xia Renshu adopted the airs of an elder and lectured Xia Guofang. It wasn't that she felt sorry for Luo Yuechuan; she just liked acting like an elder in front of Xia Guofang.

"Yeah! Xiao Kai is probably just playing around. He'll be back on his own in a bit."

These days, it's not uncommon for kids to go out and play right after dinner and not be home all day. Xia Renlan also thought Xia Guofang was making a big fuss over nothing.

"What do you know? My family's affairs are none of your business."

The two aunts of the Xia family immediately turned pale. Fearing a commotion, Yang Yunxia went over to comfort them.

At the same time, she winked at Zhang Xiaohua, signaling her to take advantage of the chaos to dispose of the laced sweet soup, making sure no one else accidentally ate it. If they could keep Xia Yichu here, she had the drug on her, and they could find a way to lac it on her again.

"Xiao Chuan, don't worry, where did you go looking for your brother?"

Xia Yichu went over and took Luo Yuechuan's hand to comfort him. Even if he really was taken away by Xu Yumei, Luo Yuekai would be fine. Xia Yichu couldn't bear to see Xia Guofang say those things to Luo Yuechuan; they were too hurtful to the child. Luo Yuechuan was truly sensible.

"I'm in the courtyard and the alley," Luo Yuechuan said, tears streaming down his face.

Xia Yichu took a tissue and wiped away his tears before saying, "Don't cry, it's okay. Go upstairs and see if your little brother is playing up there."

"it is good"

Luo Yuechuan rushed up in a hurry, and Pei Shizhou brought Xia Zhiheng over.

"Auntie, I heard that Xiao Kai is missing."

"Yes, he must have been tricked by Xu Yumei. Zhiheng, you need to find Xiaokai quickly."

The others, unaware of Xu Yumei's situation, looked bewildered. What was there to be worried about when the family's nanny was taken away? However, the two young ladies of the Xia family, having just been humiliated, did not intend to speak.

"Okay, don't worry, Xu Yumei wouldn't dare to hurt Xiao Kai."

"Zhiheng, quickly take Shizhou with you to find someone."

Yang Yunxia seized the opportunity and prepared to get rid of Pei Shizhou, this eyesore.

"Mom, no..."

Luo Yuechuan ran downstairs, panting, and said, "Sister Xiao Chu, Xiao Kai isn't upstairs, what should we do?"

"It's alright, Xu Yumei won't hurt your brother, don't worry."

When Xia Yichu pulled Luo Yuechuan away, she noticed he was trembling all over. He must be very scared and guilty right now, so she quickly comforted him.

"Yes, Xiaochuan, don't worry, I'll go find your brother now. Tell me how long he's been missing?"

"Brother Zhiheng, my brother has been missing for about ten minutes. I just brought in some fruit and had a sip of soup. I went out to look for him for about ten minutes."

Luo Yuechuan tried his best to calm himself down and tell the story so that Brother Zhiheng would know more details.

"Okay, don't worry, Xiao Kai will be fine."

"Yes! Your brother and Shi Zhou will definitely find Xiao Kai." Yang Yunxia said, seizing the opportunity.

"Xiao Chu, you're coming too!"

Xia Zhiheng thought it would be fine to take Xia Yichu away, so that the Yang family wouldn't try to take advantage of her. At this time, Xia Zhiheng thought that the Yang family and his mother would at most force Xia Yichu to hand over the house, and he didn't think that much about it.

"no"

"Mom, why not?"

"Xiao Kai is missing, you've all left, who will comfort and take care of your grandparents? The family is so busy, I don't have time to take care of them either."

They liked Xiao Chu, and listening to her and letting her stay would make them feel better. Besides, Qing Yan and the child needed her.

Yang Yunxia tried her best to persuade Xia Yichu, saying that as long as she agreed to stay, other people's opinions didn't matter.

"Okay, I'll stay."

"Xiao Chu"

"Yi Chu"

Seeing their expressions, Xia Guofang was extremely anxious.

"Stop dawdling, can you hurry up? Fine, I'll go by myself."

After speaking, she left in a hurry. Luo Yuechuan wanted to follow, but Xia Yichu stopped him. He was emotionally unstable at the moment, and Xia Yichu wouldn't let him go.

"You have high hopes for Xiao Chu."

Xia Zhiheng spoke to Pei Shizhou, then took Zhang Xiaohua's two sons, Yang Xinghong and Yang Xingrong, away, and went out to find Xia Zhiqian and tell his grandparents as well.

"Sister Xiao Chu, let me go! I need to find Xiao Kai."

"You stay here with me, let Brother Shizhou go, okay?"

"I'm not going."

Luo Yuekai is not in any danger, and Xia Zhiheng is not a good-for-nothing. Finding Luo Yuekai is only a matter of time. Pei Shizhou wants to stay by Xia Yichu's side.
