Chapter 200: Chapter 200: The Clue Discovered by the Ancestor Chapter 200: Chapter 200: The Clue Discovered by the Ancestor Xia Xin, feeling humble, dared not to talk back but was sowhat in difficulty, “But it’s so late now, all the shops outside are closed…”
“Aren’t you capable of cooking?” Jiangli countered.
Xia Xin: “…There are so instant noodles left in the fridge, shall I go cook so instant noodles?”
“Instant noodles? Are they tasty?” Jiangli asked with a look of anticipation.
Xia Xin touched his nose, “They’re all right, Master and I used to eat them quite often.”
After all, they often found themselves strapped for cash, and having instant noodles to eat was already good.
Upon hearing this, Jiangli imdiately beca excited, “Okay, then let’s have instant noodles!”
Xia Xin got up and left.
Two minutes later, he ca back with a cylindrical container.
The mont he stepped in, Jiangli slled a fragrance, “It slls so good, it must be delicious!”
Xia Xin boasted, “That’s right, my dear ancestor, you wouldn’t know, but when it cos to instant noodles, I’m top-notch!”
He placed the instant noodles on the nightstand.
“However, we need to wait a few more minutes before we can eat.”
Just as Jiangli was about to open it, she was montarily disappointed by his words, “Why do we have to wait a few more minutes?”
“Because the noodles need to soak,” Xia Xin explained. “But it’s okay, my dear ancestor, you don’t understand, it’s just a few minutes more until you can eat!”
Jiangli pouted, just a few minutes wasn’t worth quibbling over, she looked longingly at the instant noodles and said, “Fine…”
“While we wait, let’s quickly deal with the remaining two private ssages,” Xia Xin seized the mont, attempting to shift Jiangli’s attention.
Jiangli agreed reluctantly, “You read them.”
Xia Xin hurriedly opened his phone and scrolled to the last two private ssages.
“This one is looking for soone!” Xia Xin exclaid upon seeing a ssage, quickly saying, “My dear ancestor, she’s looking for soone!”
Jiangli asked, “Well, who is she looking for?”
Xia Xin: “She’s looking for her little brother. She says her brother is just over three years old. They lost him in the park, and she doesn’t know if he has been taken away by human traffickers. It happened two days ago; their family is almost out of their minds with worry, having searched for two days without success. She ca here seeking help after seeing a ssage at Nana’s place as a last resort.”
“Human traffickers?” Jiangli raised an eyebrow.
Xia Xin opened his mouth but before he could speak.
Lin Yurong’s voice rang out from the side, “It must be the old-ti kidnappers, right?”
Xia Xin and Jiangli both looked over at once.
Xia Xin, puzzled, asked, “You know about this stuff? Has your mory co back?”
“No, not… ” Lin Yurong said, nervously waving her hands as they stared at her, “I, I just suddenly rembered…”
Xia Xin murmured, “Suddenly rembered? What else did you rember?”
Lin Yurong quickly shook her head and stepped back, visibly scared, “I, I don’t rember anymore, it’s just… it just ca to …”
She just felt that Jiangli didn’t seem to understand modern terms and often asked Xia Xin about them.
When Jiangli asked just now, she spoke without thinking.
As for why she said it, she herself didn’t know.
Xia Xin was full of question marks, what was this situation?
Jiangli glanced at Lin Yurong then suddenly asked, “Xia Xin, at her age, would she also be attending school here like you do?”
Xia Xin paused for a second, then nodded, “She should be.”
Lin Yurong looked young, roughly seventeen or eighteen years old.
Jiangli touched her chin, “So, she’s a student like you?”
“Um…” As soon as Xia Xin nodded, he imdiately realized sothing and turned to ask Lin Yurong, “Shouldn’t you be in college by now? Which school are you attending? Do you rember?”
Lin Yurong shook her head blankly, “No, I don’t rember…”
Xia Xin was sowhat disappointed.
He had thought it was a clue, but to his dismay, it led to another dead end.
Just then, Lin Yurong spoke up again, “But, but I’m very familiar with this place, I, I feel like I’ve been here before…”
