Chapter 671: Could Not Find Mom

People on the spot pointed to the house that was uninhabited for more than ten years, chitchatting.

A father and a son emerged from the luxury car, looking quite similar, one a reduced version, one a magnified version, both handsome and smart.

Yuanyuan was now held in his father’s arms. ATone year and eight months old, he now weighed over 20 kilograms. Taller than his peers, he looked more like a child over two years old.

At this time, he hugged his father’s neck, rested on his father’s shoulder, eyes turning quickly, looking around at everything that was strange.

“Dad… Big dog.” Yuanyuan pointed to a big black dog not far away, a big dog, which was the biggest dog he’d ever seen.

Yuanyuan seemed to be very excited, waving at that big dog while calling it. Little as he was, he was quite brave with no sense of fear.

But as soon as he stopped shouting, the dog suddenly bared a row of fierce teeth and its long tongue, and then rushed towards them, barking loudly.

Seeing that it was a grown-up dog, Mo Yixuan walked fast up the mountain path with Yuanyuan in arms. Unlike the meek pet dogs raised in cities, this kind of dog would bite people.

Yuanyuan did not know where he was. He just followed his father to find his mother. Dad said that his mother had gone missing and that they needed to find her and bring her home.

But was mom really here?

Yuanyuan kept turning his small head, looking around the strange environment, where there were only a lot of trees, gra.s.s and flowers, that kind of red flowers.

“Dad, find mom…” Yuanyuan got out of his father’s arms, looking here and there. Little as he was, he thought that his mother was hiding somewhere, probably behind the tree, or inside the gra.s.s.

Mo Yixuan took Yuanyuan and turned into another path. Soon, two gra.s.s-covered graves appeared clearly in front of him. He put Yuanyuan down and told him not to go, while he began to observe carefully.

He first looked at the graves and found that the tombstone showed no trace of being wiped, nor were there any flowers, ash of burnt incense or other traces after wors.h.i.+p. At first glance, no one seemed to have wors.h.i.+ped here recently. He then checked the muddy path in front of the tomb to see if there were any footprints left. He squatted down and inspected it for a long time, only to see some small and shallow footprints.

He reached out his hand and measured them, finding that these footprints should be left by children around seven or eight years old, not adults’.

So she didn’t come back to wors.h.i.+p her parents this Tomb-sweeping Festival?

Mo Yixuan felt a sudden pain in his chest, as if something were being pulled straight out of his body.

He looked at the little hill in frustration, and the only trace of expectation was lost totally.

He knew that if she was still alive, as long as she was free to move, she would certainly come back to wors.h.i.+p her parents on Tomb-Sweeping Festival.

That was the reason he came here.

Yuanyuan didn’t know what his dad was doing there. After a while, he trotted towards dad, reaching out his little hands and pulling his dad’s clothes.

“Dad…” Yuanyuan whispered. At this time, he found his dad crying. He raised his little hand, patting his father on the face.

“Daddy, find mom…” Yuanyuan always remembered that they came here to find their mom, but he did not see her. He hadn’t seen his mother for a long time.
