Chapter 408 Human trafficker
He looked astounded as if Mo Xiangyan was an unexpected guest. He then approached the pavilion where this little boy was.
Mo Xiangyan glanced at the uninvited guest, and then continued to look up at stars.
Qi Changfeng, meanwhile, stood beside him and looked up at the stars in the sky.
Qi Changfeng thought in private that Mo Yichen could be back at any time and he had to seize the moment.
“I remember your name is Mo Xiangyan, right? You’re the birthday boy.” He said.
Mo Xiangyan did not know who the man was, but he knew that this man must be one of the guests, so he should answer his question politely. He said, “Yes, you’re right.”
Qi Changfeng wanted to ask him whom his Aunt Gu was, but he could not do it in a hurry. He had to figure it out slowly. He tried to be patient and asked with a calm tone, “Xiangyan, who is your mother? Why is she absent today?”
Mo Xiangyan frowned when hearing this. He said, “I have no mother!”
“Do you feel sad and unhappy because you have no mother?” Qi Changfeng squatted down and looked at him.
Mo Xiangyan glanced at him and said, “Not really. I am okay because I have my father.”
Of course, he would not tell the truth to a stranger.
A slight smile climbed on Qi Changfeng’s face. He continued to ask as if he did not hear what Mo Xiangyan had said, “Have you started school now?”
Why did this man keep asking him questions? It was so annoying to talk with such a snooper. Mo Xiangyan would have left if he had not promised that he would wait for his father here.
He pretended to be patient and said, “Yes.”
Qi Changfeng continued to ask, “Other children all have their mothers. Do you feel envious and do you miss your mom when you see a kid nestling in the arms of his mother?”
After hearing what the man said, Mo Xiangyan felt very sad. How could it be possible that he did not feel envious and did not miss his mother?
He almost directly told Qi Changfeng his innermost thoughts and feelings, but he stopped himself from saying it.
“Who are you? Why do you ask me these questions?” He frowned and stared at Qi Changfeng watchfully.
Qi Changfeng thought that although he was a little boy, he was very vigilant. If he were an ordinary person, he would be overawed by his strong aura and would speak out his innermost thoughts and feelings.
“How clever and vigilant this little boy is!” He thought.
Qi Changfeng suddenly had a brain wave and said, “You needn’t be so alarmed. I’m not a bad guy. I’m your dad’s friend.”
“No bad person will say that he is a bad guy.” Mo Xiangyan sneered.
“Besides, all human traffickers claim to be the friend of the kid’s father when they abduct a kid.”
Qi Changfeng was very surprised and almost fell down. He didn’t expect that he would be regarded as a human trafficker one day!
He said helplessly, “I am really your father’s friend. Besides, how can a human trafficker enter here? Do you think so?”
Mo Xiangyan thought carefully. Indeed, his father had booked this place today. Anyone who wanted to enter here must hold an invitation letter.
Nevertheless, Mo Xiangyan still didn’t believe his words, and said, “You can enter here, but it doesn’t mean you are my dad’s friend. I haven’t heard of you!”
Qi Changfeng felt helpless. What kind of child Mo Xiangyan was? He was so young, but was very vigilant. It was understandable that he was so wary because now people of the powerful families would inculcate this guardian attitude in their descendants. However, why was he like that? How vigilant he was!
“However, if I can’t even cope with a child like you, how can I succeed to the estate of Qi’s family?” Qi Changfeng thought.
He said with a smile, “I know your Aunt Gu. Can it prove that I am your father’s friend?”
It was time for Mo Xiangyan to be surprised. He said, “You know Aunt Gu? Wait, do you know her full name?”
Qi Changfeng said with a faint smile, “Does your dad call her Yan? Am I right?”
What this man said dispelled all his suspicions. Mo Xiangyan thought that no one would know that except for those who were close to his father.
Mo Xiangyan said, “Since you know that Aunt Gu’s full name is Gu Yan, you must be my father’s friend.”
Qi Changfeng felt his heartbeat quicken as he heard that. Gu Yan! Was Gu Yan the one that Mo Xiangyan said? Was it a coincidence or were they the same person?
Qi Changfeng tried his best to ask with a calm tone tentatively, “Xiangyan, what does your Aunt Gu look like? Recently, I heard that she has disappeared. If I know what she looks like, I can also help you to find her, and it has more chances to find her after I know her appearance.”
If it were Mo Yichen, he would find something wrong at this time, but Mo Xiangyan was a child after all, and was not experienced, so he didn’t find Qi Changfeng lying.
Mo Xiangyan asked doubtfully, “You are my father’s friend. Haven’t you seen Aunt Gu?”
“She was closely protected by your father. I could not get a chance to meet her. It’s a pity.”
Mo Xiangyan thought and believed that perhaps his father would do that because he loved and cared about Aunt Gu very much.
“However, dad did not let him see Aunt Gu, so can I tell him what Aunt Gu looks like now?” Mo Xiangyan hesitated.
Qi Changfeng seemed to know what he was thinking. He said with a warm smile, “That your father didn’t let me know what she looks like was to protect her, but now you can’t find her. Her present whereabouts is unknown. If she is in danger, what should she do? If we find her earlier, we will protect her and it will be much safer for her, right?”
After carefully thinking, Mo Xiangyan thought that what the man said was right. “Dad is now trying to find Aunt Gu. This man is a friend of my dad. Therefore, it is OK to show him what Aunt Gu looks like.” He thought.
Mo Xiangyan made up his mind to tell him about it, He said, “I’ll show you her photo. Please inform me once you find her.”
Qi Changfeng was excited and tried his best to say with a calm tone, “OK. I will tell you immediately when I find her!”
Mo Xiangyan took out his mobile phone and found a photo of Gu Yan. This was taken by him secretly when he was shopping with her.
During this period of time when Gu Yan was not around him, whenever he missed her, he would find out this photo. He even fell asleep while looking at this photo for several times.
