Hua Ziyun was at a loss.
What had he done to deserve this?
He'd done a good deed, hadn't he?
And now he'd gotten himself into a huge mess.
But...
How could he refuse when such a little kid was asking him for help...
Crying and demanding that he honor his promise...
Hua Ziyun spoke up.
"Wait."
The woman's count of "two" was interrupted.
She looked at the young man in confusion.
Hua Ziyun turned around.
He tried to face the child.
But he found it rather amusing that the child turned right along with his leg.
The man yanked the child down.

The child shrieked.
Then he struggled with all his might. "Let go of me!"
"Be quiet!"
The woman snapped.
The child's shrieking stopped abruptly.
Hua Ziyun was slightly taken aback.

Although the child looked rather miserable—
Mainly because his expression was so pitiful—
A trace of amusement still flashed in Hua Ziyun's eyes.

He'd let her turn around with him just now.
And in doing so, she'd completely given herself away.
Hua Ziyun bent down to look at the child.
"Bao Bao."

Hua Ziyun smiled.
"It's the same when you're looking for your teddy bear."
"How about Big Brother finds someone to help you look for your teddy bear?"
"He's a really amazing person."
Hua Ziyun looked completely serious.
After all, he really meant it.
He wasn't just saying it to fool the child.
"How about we ask him to help us look for your teddy bear?"
"Okay."
The child nodded unconsciously.
He'd heard Big Brother
