Chapter 568


    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 specting. 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 me 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 getbeled 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


    exined patiently.


    Dabao was a sensible kid. Hearing that, he immediately stoppedining. “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 minutester, 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 nned 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?
