Chapter 2216 Sheep braying?

Xiao Xiao nodded slightly and put down the teacup in his hand.

It is indeed the teahouse chosen by the big boss.

The tea tastes good.

"Please say."

Good tea puts Xiao Xiao in a good mood.



"This jade ball..."

Boss Bai put his hand on the table.

On the open palm lies a round, snow-white jade ball.

Under the skylight coming in from the window, the jade ball has a hazy luster all over it.

"it……"

For the first time since the meeting, Boss Bai showed a less relaxed look.

He had trouble organizing his words.



"Master Xiao, this jade ball..."

Boss Bai paused, frowning, "It's a little strange."

"It seems... to make strange noises?"



Strange sounds?

Xiao Xiao was slightly startled.

He thought of the sheep-like sound he heard last time.



"The first time I heard it was a child..."

Boss Bai fell into memories.



That was five years ago.

He went to the hospital for a follow-up visit.

Apparently he recovered and was discharged from hospital...

Going back so soon.

Although it is a follow-up visit...



He doesn't like hospitals very much.

He had had enough of the smell of disinfectant in the past two months.

But if he delays it any longer, his family will have to accompany him to the hospital.

He refused repeatedly.

How old are you when you need to be accompanied by your parents when you go to the hospital?

Isn’t it just a joke?



He asked the bodyguard to stay away from him.

Although he didn't like bodyguards following him everywhere, he didn't want to be stabbed again.



"ah!"

A child's cry sounded around him.

He couldn't help but look down.

A child in hospital clothes was looking at his...hand with surprise on his face?

He raised his eyebrows slightly.

Is it the jade ball in your hand?



Children seem to like round things?

Like rubber balls, yo-yos, bouncing balls, etc.

….

When he talked about this jade ball, he felt helpless.

The old man insisted that he always carry the jade ball with him.

He argued several times and finally had to give in.



He hesitated and slowed down.

He is not good at dealing with children.

What will he do at this time?



"Sheep!"

The child's words stopped him in his tracks.

Sheep... Sheep?

What's the meaning?



"Xiaobao!"

A young woman ran over with a surprised look on her face.

"You kid, why did you come here?"

The woman smiled at the strange man next to the child, then bent down, picked up the child, and left.

"The nurse sister sees you everywhere."

"Also, how many times has mom told you?"

"Don't talk to strangers..."

"...What if it's a bad guy..."



He couldn't help but look down at himself.

Does he look like a bad guy?

However, bad people don't write on their faces.

He thought of the person who attacked him before.

From previous interactions, it was clear that he was a person with a gentle temper.

No one thought that such a person would do such a bold thing.

As the saying goes, a person cannot be judged by his appearance...

He shook his head.

"Mr. Bai."

It was the nurse next to the doctor he wanted to see.

The older woman gave him a polite smile.

He stepped forward.

I also forgot the strange words the child said before.



This is just a small episode.

He always thought he had forgotten everything.



Five years later, just a few days ago, he went to participate in a charity event.

There were several children chasing and playing in the venue.

He frowned.

He doesn't like children's noise very much.



"Boss Bai..."

Someone came to greet me.

A perfectly polite smile quickly appeared on his face, "Boss Zhang, long time no see..."



"Ouch~"

He was just chatting with people and didn't notice a child bumping into him.

He reached out to support the child who fell backward.

"Are you okay?"

The children here are all family members of the participants.

The participants here are all his partners or customers, or potential partners or customers.

There is no need for him to argue with a child.



Children are not afraid of birth either.

After standing firm, she looked at him with bright eyes and said, "There are sheep!"

sheep?

He was stunned.

Next to him, Boss Zhang, who was talking to him before, was also stunned.

"What sheep?"

"Where are the sheep coming from here?"



"There really are sheep!"

The questioned child hurriedly argued, "I heard the cry of the sheep!"

He and Boss Zhang looked at each other.

This is where a charity event is held, in a high-end hotel.

Why is there the sound of sheep?



"Serena!"

Before the child could continue to argue, the child's mother hurried over and took the child's hand.

She smiled sheepishly at the two men with inexplicable expressions.

"Sorry, this kid is disturbing you."



The child's mother dragged the child away somewhat forcefully.

The sound of a woman scolding a child could be heard faintly in the air.

"How many times have I told you not to run around here..."

"...Look, I bumped into someone..."



"Mom, I heard the sheep's cry!"

The child shouted excitedly.

He didn't take the woman's previous scolding into consideration at all.

"..."

"real!"

"mom-"

The child's voice disappeared.

He knew that the child's mother must have vetoed the child's remarks and forbade the child from continuing to "mess around".

After all, how can a human body make a sheep cry?



Boss Zhang smiled at him and said, "Children are indeed childlike."

"We adults can't understand it anymore."

He also smiled, "Yeah."



After Boss Zhang left, a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.



"Sheep!"



The sound that suddenly appeared in his memory made him startled.



"Sheep!"

"There are sheep!"



sheep……

Sheep again…

what happened?

He frowned in thought.

Obviously I didn't care last time.

This time, for some reason, he became inexplicably concerned.

His hand subconsciously rubbed the jade ball in his palm.

This is a habit he has gradually developed over the past few years.

His movements paused.

five years ago……

The first time he was said to have heard the cry of sheep was five years ago.

It was when he just got the jade ball.

He remembers...

He reached out and tapped his head.

At that time, the child... was just staring at his jade ball.

this time……

The child seemed to have not had time to discover where the sound of the sheep's braying came from on his body.

Just as he was about to raise his hand to take a closer look at the jade ball, the host's voice came from the stage.

Charity activities have begun.



He held the jade ball tightly and walked towards his position.



After returning home, he observed the jade ball for a long time.

I listened for a long time again

Nothing was found,

After coming back to his senses, he found that it was already dark outside.

He laughed at himself like a fool.



But the next day, he still found the old man and asked about the situation of Yuqiu.
