Chapter 310 Thrilling Escape
Chapter 310 Thrilling Escape
Her soft, cute face suddenly became wrinkled, full of grievance.
Aunt Ping sensed that tears were about to fall from her eyes, so she quickly knelt down and pulled the person into her arms.
"Your brother is just worried about you. Look at all that going up and down, it's so tiring. You were already hungry, and all that running around will only make you hungrier," Aunt Ping explained to Mengmeng.
What she said seemed to make sense, and Mengmeng's mood improved somewhat. "Aunt Ping, shouldn't Mengmeng have been more reasonable in blaming her brother?"
"Of course," Aunt Ping said with a smile. "Mengmeng can't let Shiyu know how much you blame him, or he'll be upset."
"Okay, okay, I won't tell my brother!" Mengmeng nodded seriously.
Gu Shiyu happened to come downstairs and heard Mengmeng's words. He asked curiously, "What? You won't tell me?"
Mengmeng looked nervously at Aunt Ping.
"It's nothing," Aunt Ping stepped forward to explain. "She was just hungry and wanted to sneak a piece of chicken wing first."
"Eat if you're hungry, it's okay." Gu Shiyu came to the dining table, picked up his chopsticks, and took a chicken wing from the plate and put it in his bowl.
Turning around, he waved and called out, "Mengmeng, come here!"
Seeing that Gu Shiyu truly believed her, Mengmeng smiled at Aunt Ping and then happily walked over.
Sitting in the pulled-out chair, and taking the chopsticks handed to her, Mengmeng asked, "Brother, why haven't Dad, Mom, Uncle, and Aunt Yuan'er come down yet?"
"They're down." Gu Shiyu looked at the four people who appeared on the stairs.
The four of them sat down at the table. Gu Jingsi looked at the chicken wings in Mengmeng's hand, but instead of scolding her, he asked with concern, "Has your stomach been rumbling for a while now?"
“I just called out once,” Mengmeng replied earnestly.
"Our Mengmeng is so innocent and adorable!" Gu Jingsi said with a smile.
Ruolan sat at the dining table, glancing around the room. "Where's Tiantian?"
Apart from Gu Yinshen and Gu Shiyu, everyone else then noticed that Tiantian was not there.
"Are you still upstairs?" Ruolan then asked.
Upon hearing this, Gu Yinshen immediately looked towards Gu Shiyu.
“She’s resting,” Gu Siyu said.
Gu Yinshen definitely couldn't say those words. After all, once the fact that Tiantian had left home was exposed, his words would cause Ruolan and her to argue.
"Rest?" Ruolan was a little surprised. "But you still need to eat."
Mengmeng nodded beside her, "You'll get hungry if you don't eat."
"Mengmeng, aren't you hungry? Why aren't you eating?" Gu Shiyu picked up another chicken wing and put it in Mengmeng's bowl.
Instinctively, she wanted to divert her attention, but Mengmeng was more focused on Tiantian at the moment.
"Mengmeng, go upstairs and call Sister Tiantian down for dinner!"
She put her chopsticks on the table and stood up from her chair with a nimble gait.
Sometimes what you fear most comes to pass. Looking at Mengmeng's enthusiastic demeanor, Gu Shiyu helplessly grabbed her hand and pulled her back to her chair to sit down again.
"Go ahead and keep eating."
"Brother, Mengmeng has eaten a lot of food and now has the strength to go upstairs."
Gu Shiyu wouldn't let her go, and Mengmeng thought it was because he thought she didn't have the strength.
"I'll go." Ruolan watched the two of them arguing and moved her chair away, then stood up.
This is not possible!
Gu Yinshen panicked.
He told a lie, and it was discovered the very next day. This will create a serious rift between him and Ruolan.
"None of you need to go. Don't call her down if she's not eating now. Aunt Ping, get a plate and put some of her favorite dishes in the kitchen. We can heat them up for her when she's hungry," Gu Yinshen instructed.
This method is more appropriate than having everyone go up and call Tian Tian down.
Ruolan reached out and picked up the plate, and as Gu Yinshen had just told her, she put a lot of food on Tiantian's plate.
Seeing the plates piled up like a small mountain, she then handed them back to Aunt Ping.
Now that things have settled down for the time being, the meal was relatively peaceful.
……
Walking along the roadside, Tian Tian stopped and sat down on a bench. Rubbing her calves, she now regretted running away from the Gu residence in a fit of pique.
She was trying to use this to control the Gu family, but she had been out for at least three hours and hadn't seen anyone come out looking for her.
Could it be that they intend to completely abandon her by letting her leave the Gu family?
Looking back at the road she had come from, Tian Tian felt particularly heavy-hearted.
If she goes back, they won't worry about her or try to coax her if she throws a tantrum again. If she doesn't go back, and they don't come looking for her, won't she be forced to live a life of wandering?
Neither of the two options is the most suitable for Sweetie at this moment.
After hesitating for a long time, she looked at the road where cars were constantly coming and going.
呲~
"Kid, are you okay?"
Sweetie fell in front of the car, her arm scraping against the ground, leaving it bloody and mangled.
The driver was terrified to see such a small person fall in front of his car.
"I want my mom..." Sweetie burst into tears.
The car was temporarily stopped in the middle of the road, causing many vehicles behind it to have difficulty driving. In addition, because Tian Tian is young, her crying quickly attracted a group of people to come and check.
"How pitiful! What kind of child would run out of the house at night and get hit by a car?!"
"Luckily, the driver braked in time, otherwise the child would have been killed."
"He looks injured. Has anyone called an ambulance?"
The crowd watching the excitement was talking a lot.
Sweetie kept crying, making the already helpless driver even more at a loss.
"Little friend, where are your parents? Are they nearby?" the driver asked cautiously, crouching down.
Mengmeng shook her head, still crying loudly with her mouth wide open.
At this time, an ambulance and a police car arrived.
"Are you the driver?" The police officer stepped forward, looked at the man in front of Tian Tian, and asked.
The driver nodded and explained, "Officer, I was driving normally. This child suddenly ran out from the sidewalk. I braked immediately, but I was too close and still hit her."
The policeman listened, then looked around. There were no security cameras around, and what he said was only his side of the story.
"Little one," the police officer knelt down and called gently, "Do you know your parents' phone numbers?"
Sweet desserts.
On the first day she was brought back to the Gu family, Ruolan gave her and Gu Yinshen's phone numbers and made her memorize them.
Unexpectedly, one day she actually used it.
She gave Ruolan's phone number to the police.
The police officer dialed the number and waited for Ruolan to answer.
"Hey."
A familiar male voice rang out. Sweetie immediately exclaimed, "That's not right!"
Ignoring the pain in her arm, she reached out to grab the policeman's phone.
The police officers, caught off guard by her reaction, stared blankly as she hung up the phone.
"kid?"
"I want to call my mom!"
