The proprietress ran out in a panic, shouting to the shop assistants to put out the fire.

Liu Yunxiang and Yan Mu looked at each other and followed the proprietress towards the backyard.

"Why do I feel like it's something your son can do?" Yan Mu said.

The corner of Liu Yunxiang's mouth twitched, "Who wouldn't tell me this kid looks like you?"

The couple ran to the backyard and saw that the fire in the east wing was already burning very hard. It was said that the wing was used as a warehouse and was filled with books collected by the boss from all over, including some precious ancient books.

Yan Mu couldn't help but feel a little distressed when he saw the fire, not to mention the boss's wife. Seeing that the fire couldn't be extinguished, his legs went weak and he collapsed on the ground.

However, she thought of something and jumped up again.

"What about bastard? Where is he?"

At this time, the waiter who was busy putting out the fire said: "I just caught a glimpse of him, heading towards the back door."

The landlady raised her hand and slapped the guy on the back of the head, "You're just going to watch him escape? Won't you catch him?"

The landlady was so angry that she wheezed, and the waiter rubbed the back of his head in frustration, "Why don't you ask us to put out the fire? I thought this matter was more urgent."

The boss's wife was so angry that she kicked the guy again and ran towards the back door.

Liu Yunxiang and Yan Mu also ran over and followed him out of the back door. However, they saw the proprietress acting like a little brat and chased her around the corner before finally catching up.

Liu Yunxiang took a closer look and first saw a figure from the back. He looked about eight or nine years old and was chubby. It seemed that his foot was injured and he was limping when he ran, so he was caught by the landlady before he could run very far.

But he was very fierce. He turned around and bit the landlady's arm.

"Ouch, you brat, stop talking!"

Taking advantage of the boss's wife's pain, the child pushed her away and continued running, but was caught again before he could take more than two steps. This time the landlady grabbed the back of his neck, and he couldn't turn around and bite him.

"You brat, you dare to burn my books, I'm not done with you today!" the boss's wife yelled angrily.

The child struggled and shouted: "Just kill me, the traffickers have snatched the child! Come out and see, the proprietress of Zhilan Study is a human trafficker!"

"If you scream again, I'll tear your mouth apart!"

"Everyone, come and watch the fun, adults are bullying children!"

"you!"

Seeing that someone actually opened the back door and came out to take a look, the proprietress hurriedly carried the child home. As she walked, she explained to the neighbor: "The child from a relative's house got into trouble. He was afraid that I would beat him, so he shouted randomly."

The neighbor laughed and said, "This kid is quite interesting."

"He's so angry that he won't pay for it with his life."

After dismissing the neighbor, the landlady pushed the child back home and kept scolding her: "You burned my warehouse, but you know how many books there are in it. It's a sin. You might as well kill me!"

"Just wait, I'm going to beat your butt to pieces today!"

"I'll chop off your trouble-making hands!"

Yan Mu and Liu Yunxiang's faces turned very green after hearing what the landlady said.     “Whose hand are you going to chop off?”

Yan Mu asked coldly, and the landlady looked up, and then remembered the two of her, and was about to tell them to mind their own business, when the child he was carrying screamed.

"Father! Mother!"

The proprietress was stunned for a moment, because the child broke free from her hands with such force, and then threw herself into the arms of the two people.

Yan Mu and Liu Yunxiang bent down together, caught the three treasures, and then the family of three hugged each other.

"Mom, I miss you so much."

"Dad, I'm so miserable."

Liu Yunxiang hugged his son, kissed his little face first, and then checked his body. Fortunately, there was no injury. The same goes for Yan Mu, who originally had the intention to kill, but stopped when he saw that his son was not injured and was still chubby.

Sanbao has grown much taller, almost reaching Liu Yunxiang's shoulders. At this time, he was leaning in his mother's arms and angrily complained to her, saying that the old man Bai gave him candied haws to eat, and he fell asleep after eating one. When he woke up, he arrived at Zhilan Study. The proprietress was a mother-in-law who pulled his ears every day and forced him to work. If he doesn't do well, the tigress will beat him.

As he spoke, Sanbao's tears fell down.

"I thought I would never see you again."

What Sanbao said was so miserable that Yan Mu couldn't help but have his murderous intention again.

The landlady also reacted at this time, and when she looked at Yan Mu's cold eyes, she couldn't help but shudder, "Conscience of heaven and earth, I...I didn't abuse him. Besides, Old Man Bai entrusted me to take care of him, and I also I don’t know that he tricked me into getting this child.”

"You don't know?" Yan Mu narrowed his eyes, "Then why are my sons still locked up?"

"He, he always runs away. I'm not afraid of losing him."

Thinking that her son's walking posture was wrong, Liu Yunxiang hurriedly asked her son to walk a few steps. Sure enough, he was limping, and she immediately became anxious.

"Did you really break my son's leg?"

The landlady waved her hands hurriedly, "I didn't, and I don't know why he was lame. I..."

Seeing his son like this, Yan Mu rushed forward and grabbed the boss's wife's neck.

"If you hurt my son, you won't be able to survive!"

"No, I really don't know..."

Liu Yunxiang knew that Yan Mu was sensible and would not kill the boss's wife, but thinking of her son's suffering, she wanted to go up and strangle the boss's wife to death. However, when the son saw the landlady struggling in pain, his heart softened for a moment.

"Actually, it's none of her business. I...I fell down myself."

When he said this, Sanbao walked a few more steps, but his limp was not as serious as before.

Yan Mu twitched the corner of his mouth and let go of the landlady.

When Liu Yunxiang saw a neighbor opening the door to see her, she said, "Let's go back to the courtyard and talk about it." (End of Chapter)
