Rong Han did not notice the three children in the distance. As if afraid of being noticed by others, he stood behind the carriage not far away from the restaurant and hid.

Dumby blinked curiously and deliberately slowed down his footsteps. He walked to the back of the carriage and raised his hand to Pat Rong Han’s shoulder. “Hey, Lil’ Han, what are you doing sneaking around?”

“Ah!” Rong Han was shocked. He quickly patted his chest and turned around to see Dumby. “Why is it you?!”

“We’re out for the lantern event. Lil’ Han, who are you hiding from?” Gu Lin pulled Lingbao’s little hand and followed them.

Rong Han pretended to be mysterious and shushed them. He pulled the four of them behind the carriage and hid them well. “Don’t make a sound. There’s an old witch chasing me. I don’t want to stay with her.”

Just as the three children were curious about who the ‘old witch’ was, Qu Lianyu led the prince regent’s mansion guards out of the inn in a hurry.

After looking around, they still could not find Rong Han. Qu Lianyu looked anxious and turned to glare at the guards. “What are you all doing? There are so many people. Can’t you even watch over a child?”

The guards did not dare to raise their heads. “At first, the little crown prince said that he had a stomachache and wanted to go to the toilet. Who knew that he secretly ran away through the window. Please forgive him, Miss Qu…”

“You can go and explain these words to His Highness.” Qu Lianyu frowned. “What are you still standing there for? You must find the little crown prince before His Highness leaves the palace and returns to the manor!”

After hearing this, the guards hurriedly scattered to look for him.

“Lil’ Han, is she the old witch you were talking about? She doesn’t look old to me,” Lingbao said.

“But she always bullies me. Every time when my father isn’t at home, she makes me drink all kinds of bitter medicine,” Rong Han said unhappily with his head lowered.

“But if you don’t go home, your father will worry about you,”Gu Lin said.

“Then can you send me home? I can bring you over. Next time, you can come and play with me directly,” Rong Han said expectantly.

“It’s okay to send the Young Master back to the mansion. However, once we go out, we will be discovered by that young lady,” Cui’er said.

Qu Lianyu was standing at the entrance of the restaurant. It seemed that she had no intention of leaving.

The carriage in front of them and Qu Lianyu faced each other. As soon as they walked out from the back of the carriage, Qu Lianyu would immediately see them.

Rong Han’s face was unhappy, and his beautiful facial features were already tangled together. It could be seen how much he disliked Qu Lianyu.

The three children all understood him very well.

They had been sick before, and every time they got sick, the doctor would give them a decoction that was so bitter that their tongues would turn numb.

Every time they took a sip, they felt like crying, but little Han had to drink it every day. It was too torturous.

“Let me help you. Second brother, lend me your meat bun,” Lingbao said.

Dumby reluctantly gave the half-eaten meat bun to Lingbao.

“Big dog, come here.” Lingbao turned her head and tentatively waved at the big black dog standing not far away.

Surprisingly, the big black dog really understood Lingbao’s words and wagged its tail as it came over.

Lingbao waved the meat bun in its hand at the Big Black Dog, then pointed at Qu Lianyu. “Go lure that person away, and I’ll give you this meat bun.”

After the big black dog heard this, it turned its head and headed straight for Qu Lianyu without saying a word.

Qu Lianyu was completely unaware of the impending danger. She stood where she was and clenched her fists, her eyes almost spitting fire.
