Although Mo Xingchen was tired, he had slept with Wen Bai and Wen Jue for the past few days.
Even though he feared Wen Bai and Wen Jue.
But now in a place that felt very unfamiliar to him, he actually preferred to stay in the same room as Wen Bai and Wen Jue.
However, after seeing Wen Bai and Wen Jue being led away in different directions by different servants, he could only obediently follow the arrangement of Mrs. Wen, "whimpering" inwardly, and followed the servant who came to escort him.
After the three little children were taken away, Mr. Wen could finally put his mind at ease and go to his study to deal with the business matters that had piled up for many days due to his anxiety over Wen Bai's disappearance.
Mrs. Wen, on the other hand, sat in the main seat, her gentle motherly smile replaced with a stern expression.
Mrs. Wen said to the maid closest to her, "Ling'er, summon the servants who accompanied Bao'er and Xiao Jue out that day."
Soon, three people stood in the hall.
Mrs. Wen said lightly, "It was you who followed Bao'er and Xiao Jue out that day?"
A young servant stepped forward and replied, "Yes."
Mrs. Wen sat in the main seat with a relaxed demeanor and said softly, "Tell me what happened that day."
In fact, they had already told the madam the specific details on the day of the incident.
Now that the young masters were back, and the madam was still asking them to recount it, it was clear that the situation was not simple.
After the servants recalled carefully, one pointed to the person beside him, "Madam, the two of us were following young master Wen Bai when he went out. Halfway, young master Wen Bai said he wanted to play hide-and-seek, and we kept a close eye on him. At that moment, for some reason, the crowd suddenly became chaotic, and then we lost him..."
This servant blamed himself, "It was my fault for losing young master Wen Bai, allowing someone to take advantage of the situation. But as for young master Wen Jue, we really don't know."
Another servant said, "Yes, madam. There were too many people at the time. After being scattered by the crowd, we were anxious because we couldn't find young master Wen Bai. We met Ah Da, and Ah Da said he saw young master Wen Bai and young master Wen Jue running towards an alley together, so we went to look for them."
The servant called Ah Da also lowered his head and corroborated, "Madam, that day when young master Wen Jue heard that young master Wen Bai had gone out, he also wanted to go out. I wanted to call someone to go with him, but young master Wen Jue left on his own. I didn't dare to stop him, so I followed him. I didn't follow your instructions, madam, that at least two people should accompany the young master when they go out. It was my mistake."
Mrs. Wen nodded, then said, "From today onwards, you are no longer needed by Bao'er and Xiao Jue's side. Although it is the beginning of the month, this month's wages will be paid in full, and you will leave the Wen family tomorrow."
The servants actually wanted to argue.
After all, the treatment in the Wen family was much better than in other places. Not only was their monthly salary double that of other families, but their work was clearly divided, and they had two days off every five days, with red envelopes on holidays.
If their work was done well, the master would also be very generous with occasional rewards.
Moreover, servants like them who followed the young masters often received large, inexplicable tips.
However, this time they had lost the master's child.
Although these servants were reluctant, they had no choice but to agree.
As for Ah Da, he seemed to have not expected such an outcome. A malicious and resentful expression appeared on his lowered face.
After they retreated.
In the quiet room, the maid's voice rang out, "Madam, what do we do next?"
"Keep a close watch on their movements. Bao'er and Xiao Jue were both abducted by human traffickers. How could such a coincidence happen."
As she spoke, Mrs. Wen exerted force, and the teacup in her hand showed fine cracks, "Those who dare to touch the apple of my eye must be prepared to pay the price."
-
At this moment, Mo Xingchen.
He was a little worried in the unfamiliar environment. His ability to adapt to new environments had never been very strong.
Every time he went out with his parents, no matter how good the environment was, he couldn't sleep well.
Mo Xingchen pouted, being led towards his room.
It was really troublesome, his small body was very particular about where he slept.
After being meticulously and considerately served by the servant to take a bath, Mo Xingchen relaxed.
He stretched out his small hands, letting the servant put on his nightclothes, and finally, was held by the servant and placed into the soft bedding.
His small body, the moment it touched the soft and comfortable bed of the Wen family, was irresistibly pulled into a deep slumber.
Meanwhile, Wen Bai arrived at the original body's bedroom.
System 001 then apologized, "Host, I don't know why Mr. and Mrs. Wen have become like this. In the original plot, they were not like this. Their interactions with Wen Jue were polite and distant, not like kissing, hugging, and pinching you. It was my investigation's error. It's possible that because you survived, the plot has changed, and the original body's parents have also changed?"
Wen Bai said coldly, "Go into hibernation."
System 001 said aggrievedly, "Okay, host."
Then, along with the faint sound of electricity from System 001, it also disappeared. Wen Bai's world finally became quiet.
Wen Bai did not know who the servants around the original body were, so it didn't matter who was by his side now.
Wen Bai did not like the ancient way of life, where everything had to be done by others.
Although he was now a small child with legs shorter than an adult's, he still disliked being watched while bathing, having his clothes taken off, and even having them put on.
Wen Bai expressionlessly called the servant newly assigned to him outside the door, and then expressionlessly closed the door, leaving behind a sentence, "Wait here."
Then he moved a small stool to the side of the bathtub, stepped on it step by step, and climbed into the bathtub.
This servant, who was with Wen Bai for the first time, felt extremely uneasy. He had been overjoyed when the steward arranged this good job for him.
And now, he deeply felt that young master Wen Bai probably didn't like him very much.
He even pessimistically thought that young master Wen Bai would probably replace him tomorrow.
He wept inwardly, why was he so useless, unable to seize the opportunity he had obtained.
It wasn't until Wen Bai opened the door again that young master Wen Bai, with a small, expressionless face, pointed to the side room, "You sleep there. Do not enter my room without my permission unless I call you."
The servant was now very worried.
Young master Wen Bai was only 5 years old, so young, sleeping so far away, and separated by two doors, if something happened he wouldn't know.
Was this appropriate? It was not appropriate!
He was about to ask another question when he met young master Wen Bai's tired and expressionless small face.
For some reason, he was a little afraid to ask, so he could only stammer in response, "Okay... Okay."
And at this moment, Wen Jue.
He asked the servant to prepare his clothes and then went to wash himself.
He carefully sorted out the small paper packets in his beloved little pockets one by one, and then obediently lay down on the bed.
He opened his round eyes on his chubby, pouting face and asked knowingly, "Where is Ah Da? Why are you accompanying me back today?"
The servant saw young master Wen Jue like this at this moment and felt his heart melt. How could he be so cute!
He thought that young master Wen Jue had a good relationship with the previous servant Ah Da and did not want to make young master Wen Jue sad, so he said, "Ah Da has found a better place, so I have been assigned to take care of you, young master."
"Then, where will Ah Da sleep tonight?"
