Wa Zicong turned around to look at her, and Lin Yishan turned her face away, saying, "I’ll go buy them something to eat. Since you want to keep them here, you can’t starve them, otherwise, it won’t mean anything."

Seems about right.

Lin Yishan opened the door and went out. She kept her head down, walking quickly forward, out of the dark alley, to the nearest convenience store. Once inside, she grabbed some snacks randomly. Then, she asked the store owner if there was a telephone she could borrow.

She found the telephone and dialed a number.

The person who answered was a man with a local English accent: "Are you looking for our boss, Miss Lin?"

"Tell your boss, his daughter, I can help send her back."

"What are you saying!"

"His daughter, I will send her back to your boss, so you need to follow what I say next."

In the rental room, after Lin Yishan left, Wa Zicong quickly closed the notebook and urged the two kids to go to the bathroom.

Seeing that this man was about to take them away from the place, Erhouzi asked him, "Did that bad woman go to inform someone?"

Wa Zicong just looked at his little face and said, "I really wish I had met your brother, not you."

"Huh?" Isabel turned her little head, shocked to see the two of them.

Seeing the man uncover his disguise as the brother, Erhouzi puckered his lips, "Is there a problem?"

"Your brother at least wouldn’t be like you, chanting like a little monk 24/7." Wa Zicong said as he pushed the two of them into the bathroom.

Erhouzi quickly turned back: "Hey, I’m a boy, how can I go to the bathroom with a girl?"

"Then you wait at the door, she finishes, you go in." Wa Zicong said, and then turned around to quickly pack his things. He must leave before Lin Yishan comes back.

"I say——" Erhouzi looked at his hurried figure, pouted, "Don’t you find it troublesome? Just send me back to my mom and dad, wouldn’t it be easier? It’s not troublesome for you? Maybe my parents won’t hold a grudge and forgive you." 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Regarding Erhouzi’s talk about not holding grudges, Wa Zicong snorted coldly, "In the adult world, what do you kids understand."

"I understand, you don’t dislike my dad, you like my mom, right?" Erhouzi said with conviction.

Wa Zicong turned his head, his icy gaze falling on his little mouth: "Say one more word, and I’ll seal your mouth with tape."

Seeing his serious expression, Erhouzi temporarily shut his mouth.

Taking the two kids downstairs, Wa Zicong didn’t dare let them ride in his own car, but went across the street to rent another car. The two kids saw his wallet bulging, and confirmed that this man wasn’t broke, just deliberately making things difficult for them.

Having barely eaten all morning, their little stomachs started growling again. But Wa Zicong didn’t care if they were hungry or not. Compared to hunger, if they couldn’t leave now, things would get much worse.

"I say——" Erhouzi got in the car and started rambling again, "You’re really stupid, knowing she’d do that, why let her in and see us?"

Isabel then pulled Erhouzi: "Xiaobai, don’t say any more, I think he wants to kill you and doesn’t want to kill you, if you provoke him further, he might really leave you here."

Xiaobai? Isabel believed him. Erhouzi suddenly felt embarrassed, facing the car window, not daring to look at the girl.
