From abandoned baby to CEO

"I saw a little brother running over there with a steamed bun in his hand."

The person who spoke was a boy who looked like a junior high school student.

"Did you really see it?"

Sun Xue asked hurriedly.

"When I came home from school, I saw a little brother wearing a black cotton coat, holding a steamed bun in his hand and running towards me in a panic. He almost hit my bicycle. I yelled at him and he was scared. Quickly turned into the small road."

As he spoke, the boy pointed to a path next to him.

Sun Xue hurriedly ran to the path pointed out to her by the boy.

Going down the path, there were rows of bungalows on both sides. Sun Xue was immediately dumbfounded: With so many bungalows, who knows where Hu Zi is hiding?

Sun Xue shouted as she walked, thinking that if Hu Zi really sneaked into a house, he would definitely come out when he heard her shout.

Sun Xue walked all the way and shouted all the way, until his throat was filled with smoke, but he couldn't see the tiger coming out.

Sun Xue guessed that Huzi was usually timid and did not dare to enter other people's yards. He probably ran to hide somewhere else.

Sun Xue kept walking along this road.

At the end of the road, Sun Xue saw a large green wheat field.

Just when Sun Xue was about to turn around and go back, an inconspicuous little house located in the wheat field caught Sun Xue's attention.

"Isn't Hu Zi hiding in that small house?"

Sun Xue thought so in her heart, and quickened her pace towards the small house.

When he got closer, Sun Xue realized that this was a melon field. The small house at the edge of the field was not a real house, but a temporary shed.

This is when the watermelons are about to mature. The owner of the melon field is afraid that someone will steal the melons, so he builds a temporary shed with branches.

The door of the shed was ajar, and the sound of rustling eating came from the shed, and Sun Xue couldn't help but feel excited.

Sun Xue opened the door with excitement. Suddenly, several mice that were eating in the shed immediately ran away in fright, making Sun Xue tremble with fear.

There is a pile of wheat straw on the ground of the melon shed. The thick wheat straw has been pressed into a pit, which is obviously the mark of someone lying on it.

Various bags, rotten fruit peels, peanut skins, some chewed chicken bones, fast food boxes are scattered on the ground...

Suddenly, Sun Xue's eyes stopped on a pair of socks next to the pile of wheat straw. When Sun Xue leaned down to pick up the socks on the ground, tears burst out of her eyes.

These socks were Huzi's socks, and Sun Xue remembered them clearly. This was before the school's winter vacation. Sun Xue bought new clothes for his grandfather and Huzi and sent them back to his hometown. This pair of socks was what Sun Xue bought for Huzi at that time.

It seemed that Huzi had been here before, or at least spent the night here. The things on the ground should have been something he picked up from the trash can and ate.

What about others? Why did Mrs. Kung disappear after a while?

"Tiger! Tiger!"

…………

After walking out of the melon shed, Sun Xue opened her throat and shouted hysterically.

Sun Xue's urgent shout echoed over the wheat field. The surroundings were quiet and no response from Huzi could be heard.

Sun Xue sat down on the ground, her tears like broken beads.

…………

"Huzi! Huzi! Where are you? Come out quickly? Do you know how worried your grandpa and sister are when you are lost? How worried we are about you? How much we miss you?"

Sun Xue sat on the ground and silently called in her heart.

Sun Xue guessed that Huzi must have gone out to look for food. If he found food, he would definitely come back; even if he didn't find food, he would still come back to sleep!

Sun Xue simply sat in the melon shed and waited for Hu Zi's arrival. She even imagined the excitement when they met...

After running so much, Sun Xue also felt tired. I didn't eat at noon and I was already hungry. I was chasing tigers at the farmer's market and all the blisters on my feet were broken. I hadn't felt anything until now, but now I felt a terrible pain in the soles of my feet.

Sun Xue was worried about grandpa and Xiaodouzi again. He didn't go back at noon, so grandpa must be anxious. I wonder if they have eaten?

Sun Xue thought about her own affairs again. In order to find Huzi, she didn't go to the training school this week. She just called her boss. After hearing this, the boss hung up the phone very angry.

I don’t know what the boss is thinking? Can I still keep the job I finally got? What if you lose your job? How will you and your grandfather continue your life in the future?

Sun Xue felt that life had just improved a little bit, but suddenly it became a mess again...

After thinking about it, Sun Xue fell asleep lying on the wheat straw in a daze.

Sun Xue had a dream. She dreamed that Hu Zi came back, wearing the new clothes she bought for her. She also dreamed that the novel she wrote was published. When she graduated, she actually made money and bought a set in Quancheng City. It was a big house; she also invited those who had helped her selflessly: Sun Pengfei's family, Grandpa Jiang, Grandma Han, Uncle Zhang's family, godfather, Teacher Zhang to visit her home...

When Sun Xue woke up, she found that the melon shed was completely dark as soon as she opened her eyes.

Sun Xue walked out of the melon shed and found that it was already dark.

Unexpectedly, I slept in the melon shed for such a long time.

Sun Xue rubbed her sleepy eyes, and there was silence all around. The lights on the tall buildings in the distance were already lit, and the stars were filling the entire sky.

"Hey! It seems that Hu Zi will not come back!"

Facing the night sky, Sun Xue let out a long sigh.

She cheered up and walked home with her tired body.

After returning home, Old Man Sun looked very flustered as soon as he entered the door. He was obviously worried that Sun Xue would not come home for a long time.

"Xue'er, why did you come back so late? I'm so anxious! Why is there wheat straw on your head and body? Where have you been?"

"Grandpa...I..."

Sun Xue suddenly felt very uncomfortable and burst into tears.

"Grandpa, I almost found Huzi today, but..."

Sun Xue told Old Man Sun what happened today.

"Huh? Does that mean Hu Zi is nearby?"

After hearing what Sun Xue said, Old Man Sun asked a little surprised.

"That's good! That's good! As long as he's alive, as long as he's still around here, we'll find him one day."

Hearing that Huzi was nearby, Old Man Sun seemed to be in a much better mood.

"Xue'er, there is rice in the pot. It's ready and has been waiting for you. It will be cold by now. Please heat it up for you."

After eating, Sun Xue took out the medicine she bought in the drugstore and carefully applied it to the wound on Xiaodouzi's leg.

Sun Xue noticed that when she was applying the medicine, Xiaodouzi kept looking at her face with a smile. He also put his hand on Sun Xue's hair and helped Sun Xue pick up the wheat straw mixed in his hair.

It seems that Xiaodouzi has completely let down his guard.

Xiaodouzi's small gesture made Sun Xue feel warm in his heart.

Sun Xue suddenly remembered that she was going to buy a new pair of shoes for Xiaodouzi today. Forget it, let's take him to buy them tomorrow.

"Xiaodouzi, my sister will take you to buy a new pair of shoes tomorrow, and can you go to the police station by the way?"
