I Have a Wealth Gathering Array
Chapter 541: Little Scatterbrain
"Daqiang, stop the car." Seeing Xu Xiaoyou, Qin Yun paused for a moment and then quickly instructed.
Zhou Daqiang nodded and pulled the car over to the side.
His boss is quite peculiar, wandering around various cities for months, seemingly searching for something, but Zhou Daqiang knows his job and absolutely does not ask about these things.
He is only responsible for driving and booking rooms for Qin Yun, and Qin Yun pays him triple the salary of his previous boss!
He is very satisfied with his current job.
The car stopped, and after getting out, Qin Yun quickly approached Xu Xiaoyou.
At this time, Xu Xiaoyou was still a little toddler of two or three years old, crying sadly.
Others also noticed Xu Xiaoyou and stepped forward, saying, "Little sister, what’s wrong?"
But Xu Xiaoyou just cried and said nothing.
Just then, a voice suddenly rang out, saying, "Xiaoyou."
Hearing the shout, the little girl who was crying immediately turned around and saw Qin Yun.
"Young man, is this your child?"
"She’s so young, how can you let her walk alone outside?"
The crowd, seeing the situation, obviously understood that the little girl was called Xiaoyou.
"Sorry, everyone, this is my sister," Qin Yun said quickly.
His father and Xu Xiaoyou’s mother are identical twins, with identical genes, so at first glance, Qin Yun and Xu Xiaoyou really do look somewhat alike.
"Young man, your sister is so young and innocent. Don’t let her get lost."
"Yes, you were too careless. If she gets abducted, what then?"
Several people around echoed.
Qin Yun, tall, handsome, and sunny, easily made a good impression; someone like him could even enter the entertainment industry.
They had no doubts about Qin Yun’s identity and didn’t worry he might be a human trafficker.
Looks have advantages; those who look good are trusted more easily by others.
After saying this, these people gradually dispersed.
Qin Yun held the little girl and waited for everyone to leave. The little silly girl looked at Qin Yun curiously, then asked, "Are you my brother? Xiaoyou only has a sister."
She only remembers having a sister at home, so how did a brother suddenly appear? Could she have forgotten?
Xu Xiaoyou was a bit confused.
"Yes, I’m your brother," Qin Yun patted Xu Xiaoyou’s head and said with a smile.
In his heart, he murmured, having thought of several explanations to quell the surrounding people’s doubts, but now this little doodle doubted his identity when nobody was around.
"If a real trafficker came along, this little silly girl would probably help the trafficker count money," Qin Yun thought to himself.
Hearing Qin Yun’s words, Xu Xiaoyou was confused for a moment, then softly called, "Brother."
Qin Yun was stunned for a moment, thinking this little silly girl trusts people way too easily.
Thinking inwardly, Qin Yun asked, "Xiaoyou, where are your mom and dad?"
What he needs to do now is definitely to send Xu Xiaoyou to her second aunt and uncle immediately.
Hearing Qin Yun’s question, Xu Xiaoyou looked a bit aggrieved, her small mouth pouting, tears rolling down again.
"Xiaoyou can’t find mom and dad," she said sadly.
Just now, mom and dad were next to her, but in a blink, they disappeared.
Seeing Xu Xiaoyou about to cry, Qin Yun hurriedly said, "Xiaoyou, don’t cry. Brother will take you to find mom and dad, okay?"
Xu Xiaoyou hugged Qin Yun’s neck, nodded her little head, and said, "Okay."
Qin Yun thought for a moment, recalling something his second aunt had mentioned before.
A while back, his second aunt and the family had been separated, staying first in Wu City for some time, and then coming to Huai City, where they’ve stayed for thirty years.
Moreover, Qin Yun knows their family is in a village in Huai City’s county.
He knows that village too.
After thinking briefly, Qin Yun decided to take Xu Xiaoyou back.
But after walking only a few steps, he noticed Xu Xiaoyou staring eagerly into the distance, where rice sticks were being sold. The intriguing aroma made Xu Xiaoyou keep swallowing drool.
Rice sticks used to be common, especially in rural areas, and there were vendors specifically making them annually, but they are becoming rarer now.
Seeing Xu Xiaoyou’s craving, Qin Yun laughed and asked, "Do you want some?"
Xu Xiaoyou nodded her little head and said, "I want some."
So Qin Yun carried her over and bought a small bag.
Watching Xu Xiaoyou happily eating, Qin Yun smiled. At that moment, they passed a children’s clothing store.
Looking at Xu Xiaoyou’s clothes, it was clear they were worn out and had a few holes.
Thus, Qin Yun carried Xu Xiaoyou inside.
"Brother, why are we here? There are so many new clothes here."
Xu Xiaoyou looked around the store, a bit nervous, clinging to Qin Yun.
She usually gets new clothes only during Chinese New Year, which makes her very happy. But she has never seen so many new clothes.
In her young eyes, these new clothes are very precious, so seeing so many at once made her feel nervous.
"Brother will buy some new clothes for Xiaoyou to wear," Qin Yun smiled, patting the little girl’s head.
Clearly, his second aunt’s family isn’t living comfortably.
Upon hearing this, Xu Xiaoyou widened her eyes and asked, "Brother will buy clothes for Xiaoyou?"
She repeated, "Are you really buying them for me?"
She found it hard to believe, with so many pretty clothes here. She thought if she could have just a little one, she would be delighted.
"Sir, do you have any styles in particular you like?"
The store assistant approached with a smile, asking.
Qin Yun asked Xu Xiaoyou which clothes she liked, and Xu Xiaoyou pointed them out.
Then Qin Yun asked if there were any others, Xu Xiaoyou thought for a while and pointed to a few more sets.
Qin Yun turned to the assistant and said, "Wrap these sets up."
As they walked out of the store, Xu Xiaoyou was very happy, now wearing a white princess dress, looking like a little princess.
She felt her brother was so nice, buying her food and lots of pretty little clothes.
What? She hadn’t seen this brother before?
That doesn’t matter! Surely she was just being confused. Her sister often said she was a little muddlehead. To her, Qin Yun was her brother; nothing and no one could contradict that.
After a short time together, Xu Xiaoyou became dependent on Qin Yun.
Seeing a toy store in the distance, Xu Xiaoyou said coquettishly, "Brother, I want to buy that little duck toy."
"Okay, let’s buy it," Qin Yun nodded with a smile.
And so, whatever Xu Xiaoyou said, Qin Yun would buy, buy, buy.
Before long, he had purchased several bags of items.
