Chapter 32: Yin Yuanli
Qin Wanwan is also clever.
She and Keke combined are no match for one person outside.
So let’s lie low for now.
Keke was also afraid of being plucked and cooked, so he hid in Qin Wanwan’s clothes.
While hiding, she discovered the snake still on the child’s wrist.
Alright, this kidnapper really didn’t lose out, catching one and getting two.
No, it’s three, there should be an egg hanging on her chest.
Qin Wanwan originally intended to lie low, but the big-hearted girl actually fell asleep in the carriage.
Fortunately, she doesn’t fuss when she sleeps, otherwise that goose egg would have been crushed by her.
Later, as the effect of the knockout drug wore off, the two little beggars also woke up, and the carriage door was finally opened.
Seeing the big men outside, they immediately trembled and understood the situation.
“Old Yang’s prediction was accurate, they woke up. You all behave yourselves, if anyone dares to cry and annoy me, you’ll get the whip!”
The person said this while raising the horsewhip in his hand.
The two children immediately covered their mouths, not daring to make a sound.
“Why hasn’t that little one woken up yet?”
“Is something wrong? This one is the best-looking among our batch.”
Saying that, he quickly went inside. Just as he was about to check, Qin Wanwan started to snore softly, slowly turned over, and found a comfortable position to continue sleeping, showing no signs of waking up at all.
Several kidnappers: …
“She can still sleep? That’s good, at least she won’t cry.”
Those two can be beaten, but this tender-skinned one is expected to fetch a good price. If she’s injured, she won’t sell well.
The carriage swayed and arrived at a secluded small village.
Someone was guarding the entrance of the village and let them in immediately.
“How is it? How many did you catch this time?”
“Caught three today, one of them is good-looking.”
“Liu Dahu also found a good one, a boy.”
Qin Wanwan groggily woke up and yawned, realizing she was no longer in the carriage.
“This little girl looks good, maybe she’s a fool?”
She actually slept until now, and she’s not crying or making trouble even after waking up.
Qin Wanwan became clear-headed. She seemed to have been… kidnapped by human traffickers.
But she pretended to be foolish.
“Who are you? Are you here to help me find Daddy?”
The kidnappers exchanged glances, and one of them approached.
“That’s right, we’re your dad’s friends, he sent us to pick you up.”
Qin Wanwan clapped her little hands: “Great! Can I see Daddy now? He hasn’t been home for days, Wanwan misses him.”
“Not now, your dad is busy. Be good and wait with Uncle. He’ll come to pick you up in a couple of days.”
Qin Wanwan drooped her head: “Okay.”
Then Qin Wanwan was arranged in a room, and there was no one else in the room except her.
“Uncle, I’m hungry, do you have anything delicious?”
“Yes.”
Soon, Qin Wanwan received two large baozi.
“Uncle, I want to take a bath, is there hot water?”
“Uncle, I don’t know how to wash my hair, can you help me? Daddy always washes it for me at home.”
“Uncle, the bed is too hard, I can’t sleep, can it be softer?”
“Yes.”
The two words were spoken with a hint of gritted teeth.
Why does this little brat have so many demands!
“Did we catch an ancestor? Why is she so troublesome!”
Someone complained impatiently.
“If she can fetch at least two hundred taels of silver, you tell me if she’s an ancestor or not?”
“This girl clearly comes from a well-off family, so she’s bound to be pampered. It’s good enough that she’s not crying now. Endure it, those people will arrive tomorrow afternoon.”
After her bath and her hair dried, Qin Wanwan lay on the soft bed, holding Keke.
The goose egg hanging on her chest was still there.
The kidnappers were actually curious about what was hanging on Qin Wanwan’s chest. When they took it out and saw it was a goose egg, they were speechless. They thought it was some treasure, but it was just this.
In the end, they put the goose egg back.
Children from rich families always have such imaginative ideas.
The room was quiet at this moment. The courtyard had high walls, and the main gate was locked. The kidnappers weren’t worried about Qin Wanwan escaping, so no one was guarding the door.
After all, she was so short, she couldn’t possibly climb over the wall.
“Keke, go find Daddy.”
“No, what if something happens to you if I leave?”
Qin Wanwan frowned: “But I’m afraid they’ll eat you.”
Keke, though small, was still meat.
“Besides, if you don’t go, Daddy won’t be able to find me.”
Keke gritted his teeth. Why isn’t there a mobile phone in this damned world? That would be so convenient.
For Wanwan’s sake, Keke flew away under the cover of night, flapping his wings with all his might, hoping to notify the border army before those people arrived tomorrow.
Even if Xie Chong hadn’t returned, others from the border army would do.
Qin Wanwan slept a lot during the day, so she was a bit sleepless now.
So she quietly pushed open the door and went out.
As she stepped out, she met eyes with a child who had just opened the door next door.
Qin Wanwan blinked.
“Little brother?”
The little boy opposite had a cold expression, about five years old, with rosy lips and white teeth, in short, he was good-looking.
Although he was young, he exuded an air of maturity.
“Who are you?”
The little boy’s voice was tender yet calm, his bright phoenix eyes staring at the little dumpling opposite, asking.
Qin Wanwan shuffled her little feet closer to him and whispered.
“Were you also kidnapped by bad guys?”
The little boy looked at her for two seconds and nodded.
“My name is Qin Wanwan, what’s yours?”
“Yin Yuanli.”
Yin Yuanli, only five years old, was cold and cool.
Qin Wanwan didn’t mind. She didn’t know where the other children were locked up, and she thought she was the only one here.
Now that she had someone to talk to, Qin Wanwan was quite happy.
“Where are you from? How were you captured? Do you know where the other captured children are?”
Qin Wanwan’s little mouth chattered non-stop.
“Stop talking.”
Yin Yuanli, with his hands behind his back and a frown, said: “You talk too much, those people will hear.”
“Oh.”
Qin Wanwan obediently shut up.
“Aren’t you worried about being sold? Don’t you miss your family?”
Yin Yuanli pursed his lips: “No.”
Suddenly, his belly rumbled.
Qin Wanwan: Stares~
Yin Yuanli’s ear tips turned slightly red, but he maintained his cold and indifferent demeanor and didn’t speak.
“Brother, your stomach is growling, it says it’s hungry.”
Yin Yuanli: “You misheard.”
However, the next second, his stomach growled again, quite embarrassingly.
Yin Yuanli turned his head in annoyance, not looking at Qin Wanwan.
“Brother, here.”
She took out a piece of pastry.
“This is date paste cake, and also the bean dregs cake made by my chef.”
Pastries are rare in the border pass. Before she was captured, she had a skewer of candied hawthorn, but she lost it.
However, the few pastries in her small pouch, some candy, and the bean dregs cake made by Aunt Zhang were still there.
Qin Wanwan lied to the kidnappers, and she ate until her little belly was full.
“Thank you.”
Yin Yuanli could endure hunger, but he didn’t want his stomach to rumble, it was embarrassing!
