Chapter 567 Fortune Teller

When they got out of the doctor’s office, Nan Chen asked Ning Ran, “Do we have to tell Dabao about this?”

“Since Erbao is fine now, we should just tell him. He’s a smart boy. If he doesn’t get to see Erbao today, he’s going

to start speculating. By then, it’ll be even harder to lie to him. We might as well tell him now so he wouldn’t get too

worried about his sister’s whereabouts,” Ning Ran answered.

“Okay. I’ll send someone to fetch him.”

Meanwhile, Dabao had already taken his breakfast. However, he had felt troubled ever since the night before. Not

only did he wake up a few times throughout the night, but he’d also been having trouble breathing.

Generally, a kid of his age would only have trouble waking up, instead of the other way around. It was rather

peculiar for him to have trouble sleeping.

Somehow, Dabao could sense something bad had happened to Erbao. What is it? What happened to her?

Yesterday, Uncle Xing just came and told me Daddy and Mommy brought Erbao out. That sounds so suspicious

because that was very unlikely.

With doubts in his mind, he went to his uncle’s room and pounded on his door.

Nan Xing didn’t sleep well as well throughout the night because he couldn’t get his mind off what happened to

Erbao. By the time he fell asleep, it was almost dawn.

He was extremely tired when Dabao woke him up.

“What is it, Dabao? What do you want so early in the morning?” Nan Xing was drowsy-eyed when he opened the

door.

“What happened to Erbao?” his nephew asked directly.

“What do you mean what happened?” Nan Xing was stumped.

“Something must’ve happened to Erbao. You’re hiding something from me.” Dabao entered the room and stared at

him.

“Nothing happened. Your parents brought her out, that’s all. They’ll be back in a couple of days.” Nan Xing felt

guilty. He knew how smart Dabao was, so he had always been wary of him.

“You’re lying. You’re an adult. How could you lie? If kids aren’t supposed to lie, shouldn’t the adults act as

examples?”

Nan Xing was on the verge of spilling everything out. “I’m not…”

“You’re obviously lying! Daddy and Mommy wouldn’t bring Erbao out on their own! Even if they did, Mommy and

Erbao would definitely call me. However, all their phones are out of reach. Something must’ve happened! If you

don’t tell me the truth now, I’ll tell Great-grandpa about it! Since you’re bullying me, I’ll get him to deal with you.

He’ll surely be able to teach you a lesson!” Dabao threatened him.

That was what Nan Xing was most afraid of. Chen said no matter what, Grandpa must never find out about what

happened to Erbao. We can’t let those two old ones get startled. Now Dabao is threatening to tell them. What

should I do?

“I trust you because you’re my uncle. However, you’re acting out of line. Don’t blame me if I have to tell Great-

grandpa about this!” Dabao threatened again, and he was about to leave.

Nan Xing was dumbfounded. Out of line?

“Wait!” He quickly grabbed his nephew.

“Are you going to tell me the truth? If you’re not, then you should just shut it!” Dabao was extremely adamant.

“Just wait, will you? I’ll call and ask if they’re still there.” Since Nan Xing couldn’t decide on his own, he decided to

call Nan Chen and ask for advice. I need his help. I don’t know how to handle Dabao.

Nan Chen’s phone was out of reach at that moment. Is his phone dead? Perhaps I should call Qiao Zhan and get

him to inform Chen.

When he got on the phone with Qiao Zhan, the man told him he was already on his way to Commoner Residence to

fetch Dabao to the hospital.

Hearing that, Nan Xing heaved a sigh of relief. He should’ve told me earlier so that I could just tell Dabao. That way,

I wouldn’t get labeled as old and acting out of line.

“Qiao Zhan is already on his way here to bring you to go see Erbao,” Nan Xing said.

“What happened to Erbao?” Dabao’s eyes reddened instantly.

Seeing that, Nan Xing’s heart ached. He quickly hugged Dabao and uttered, “Don’t worry, okay? Erbao is fine now.

She had food poisoning yesterday and was brought to the hospital. She’s fine now.”

“Why did no one tell me? I was feeling terrible all night long! Erbao and I, we could sense each other, you know?”

“Don’t cry, okay? My hands were tied. Your daddy was worried about you. That’s why he kept you in the dark in the

meantime. He’d even gotten me to check on you. I didn’t want to lie to you either. Actually, we’re more concerned

about your great-grandparents finding out about it. As you know, they aren’t young anymore. What are we

supposed to do if they fall sick when they’re startled?” Nan Xing explained patiently.

Dabao was a sensible kid. Hearing that, he immediately stopped complaining. “Did Erbao really only suffer from

food poisoning? Is it not dangerous?”

“She’s fine, really. You’ll get to see her in a while, okay? Why would I lie to you?”

“Okay. I’ll go get changed, then. Once Mr. Qiao gets here, I can leave right away.” Dabao left the room hurriedly but

returned after taking a few steps.

“What if Great-grandpa asks me something? What am I supposed to tell him?” Dabao asked.

“Tell him your parents are bringing you to the park.”

“Okay.” With that, Dabao went to his room to get changed.

Ten minutes later, he’d gotten into Qiao Zhan’s car.

“Mr. Qiao, who did it to Erbao?” Dabao asked a trick question the moment he got into the car. He knew Nan Xing

didn’t tell him the whole truth, and he also knew his uncle wouldn’t tell him if he were to keep questioning him.

Hence, he’d already planned to ask Qiao Zhan about it instead.

“Oh? Master Xing told you about it already?” Not only was Qiao Zhan never good at mind games, but he was also

up against a genius such as Dabao.

“He only told me some of it. He didn’t tell me who tried to harm Erbao.”

“Frankly, we don’t know much about it yet. The maid said the tainted cake was from Master Xing. I’ve already

gotten someone to check on that. Indeed, the card used to buy the cake was his. However, I don’t think Master Xing

is the culprit. He had no reason to do so. Besides, we’re all well aware of the fact that he loves you and Little Miss

dearly. No one would believe that he’s the culprit,” Qiao Zhan said.

“The cake was sent straight home? The maid received it?”

“Yes. Little Master, you shouldn’t be suspicious of Master Xing, okay? He’s not a bad person.”

“I know Uncle Xing isn’t a bad person. I know that very well,” Dabao said sensibly.

Indeed, it wasn’t just food poisoning. Someone was trying to harm Erbao.

“That’s good, then. Fortunately, Little Miss is already out of the woods, and we’re already on the matter. Don’t

worry, Little Master. By the way, since you’re so smart, who do you think is the culprit?” Qiao Zhan asked.

Dabao had no one in mind.

Although he was so smart that they could consider him a genius, he wasn’t a fortune teller. He couldn’t possibly

know who tried to harm Erbao.

“Whoever it is, the culprit knows our family well. I bet the culprit is someone Daddy and Mommy know,” Dabao said.

“Oh? Who could it be?”

“That, I don’t know yet. However, I’m sure that he or she is a person we’ve interacted with. This person knows

Erbao is into desserts, and that’s why it was a poisonous cake. Besides, this person knows where we stay. I’d say

we’re quite close to this person,” Dabao replied.

Upon hearing that, Qiao Zhan was frightened. Could it be Master Xing? Isn’t Master Xing someone they’re close to?
