Chapter 409

"Really?"

"Of course, when I went to that kindergarten, I often did it."

"Young devil, I know you’re capable, come on, hold Grandma’s hand."

The smiling old maid didn’t think of anything else; after taking Xiaobao’s chubby little hand into her own, she led him out the door.

Of course, when they left, they didn’t forget to tell the two people at the door that they were going to the supermarket and would be back soon.

The two were originally planning to follow, but when they heard that it was just a trip to the supermarket and that an adult was accompanying the child, they didn’t insist on going along. After they cautioned them to be safe, the elderly lady and the little boy headed to the nearby bus station to catch the bus.

The journey from Jasmine Courtyard to the supermarket truly wasn’t far, just about a ten-minute walk.

Moreover, the place was a busy transport hub, with most of the city’s bus routes passing through there. noveldrama

After arriving, Zhang Ma, worried that Xiaobao might get lost, kept a tight grip on his small hand the whole time. And Ye Xiaobao?

He was very well-behaved, following her closely the whole way, until they passed a Pizza Hut. The sight of pizza images plastered on the glass stopped him in his tracks: "Grandma, I want to eat this."

Upon seeing it, Zhang Ma thought, pizza, huh!

Well, if the child wants to eat it, let him eat. After all, Mr. Lin dotes on him - just about anything Xiaobao wants to eat, he gets.

So she led him in, found a server, and placed an order right away.

"Little friend, what kind of pizza would you like?"

"I want bacon and baked wings."

"Bacon and baked wings, huh? That’ll take a bit long, oh, probably about thirty minutes. Are you willing to wait?"

The bacon and baked wings pizza took longer because the chicken wings needed to be fully cooked before making the pizza.

Ye Xiaobao had no issues, but upon hearing this, Zhang Ma became troubled: "Thirty minutes, that long, huh? Xiaobao, how about we pick something else?"

The child, already perched on the seat, immediately lifted his little head and looked pitifully at his grandma: "Zhang Grandma, but I want this one, Xiaobao hasn’t had baked wing pizza in a long time, Little Bao wants it."

Oh my, that pitiful look...

After seeing that, Zhang Ma’s heart nearly broke. After a moment’s thought, she made a bold decision: "In that case, server, could you watch the child for me? I’ll run to the supermarket to do a bit of shopping and come back out, let him wait here."

The server immediately responded with a smile: "Grandma, you can rest assured, our restaurant is under surveillance, it’s very safe."

Under surveillance?

Well then, that’s good, that’s good!

Zhang Ma finally felt at ease. After settling Ye Xiaobao in the restaurant alone, she hastily went off to the supermarket.

It was just a quick shopping trip. She’d be back soon.

That’s what Zhang Ma thought...

But what she didn’t know was that soon after she left Pizza Hut, the child who was sitting at the table noticed that the server wasn’t around anymore. His little body scrambled down from the chair, pushed the door open, and went outside.

The First People’s Hospital in the city center could be reached by the majority of buses, so all he had to do was to go to the transport hub and board any bus heading towards the city center.

Little Baozi, whose height was still not as tall as an adult’s leg, dashed straight from the restaurant towards the bus station they had come from.
