Chapter 71

Song Zhou walked a few steps in the direction he came and then paused. He turned his head and walked in the opposite direction, and went around the back of the courtyard from the side.

Song Zhou recalled that when Xi Ning was with him a few days ago, he didn’t notice anything unusual, including when he sent him back that night, and there was nothing wrong with him.

He remembered that Xi Ning’s estrus was nearing. Was Xi Ning really hiding from him?

Song Zhou was thinking about the possibility of climbing over the wall from here to find Xi Ning, when a sound suddenly came from the courtyard wall just ahead.

He seemed to feel something and walked forward slowly. By hearing the sound, it seemed that someone was climbing from the wall on the other side that was accompanied by a few weak gasps.

Song Zhou looked up to see a white hand grabbing onto the wall, the fingertips having turned white because of the force and the hand also covered in a lot of dust. And then a familiar face showed up.

The courtyard wall was not low. Besides that, Xi Ning was also exhausted. After trying a few times, he managed to climb up the wall. When he lowered his head, he saw Song Zhou looking up at him outside the wall.

The scene in front of Xi Ning’s eyes was already a bit blurry. He muttered, “Am I having hallucinations……”

He was still conscious at that time, so he didn’t care about the “person” under him for the time being. Xi Ning was having difficulty landing on the ground, and he fell into a warm embrace halfway through.

“Ning Ning?” Song Zhou looked at him with a shocked expression. He hugged Xi Ning and examined him. “Why did you come out from here?”

Xi Ning was covered in a lot of dust, and his face was terribly pale. Song Zhou took his hand and found a wound.

He obviously escaped secretly, and he must have not eaten much in the past two days. Song Zhou was distressed to death. “What is going on? Is it Xiao CongYi……”

Xi Ning’s parents were not at home, so he could only think that it was Xiao CongYi that locked Xi Ning away from school.

“Is it really you?” Xi Ning calmed down and couldn’t believe it. He leaned closer to Song Zhou’s neck and sniffed, confirming that it was that familiar smell. “Why are you here……Did you come to see me?”

Xi Ning wanted to cry. He leaned the weight of his entire body on Song Zhou. There were many things on his mind that he wanted to say to Song Zhou, and finally he just said, aggrieved, “I’m so hungry…..”

Song Zhou held him up and touched his forehead. “I’ll take you to eat something, and then let’s go to my place, okay?”

Xi Ning nodded. “Okay.”

There were currently no movements from the Xiao family. They probably had not yet noticed Xi Ning was missing. Song Zhou supported Xi Ning and walked for a while, then he called a taxi and left the villa area.

On the way, Song Zhou asked what was going on with Xi Ning and the text message that he had received.

Xi Ning took a look at Song Zhou’s mobile phone, and said helplessly, “My mobile phone has been confiscated. It must be from my dad or Butler Lin.”

He explained to Song Zhou what happened after he went back that night. He was grounded at home for the past two days, and even Xiao CongYi could not see him.

“It’s my fault.” In the taxi, Song Zhou took a wet wipe and wiped the dust from Xi Ning’s hands. “I shouldn’t have bitten you…… Does your hand hurt?”

“It doesn’t hurt.” Xi Ning shook his head and stretched out his hands obediently. “I don’t want to go back.”

He could understand that Father Xiao was angry and worried about what would happen to him, but the thing was, he was not the real Xiao Ning, and he had not been here for a long time.

He did not have any feelings at all towards these so-called family members, and the closest person to him was only Song Zhou.

Xi Ning’s estrus period was nearing, and the pheromones in his body gradually began to become restless, especially now that Song Zhou was right in front of him. Xi Ning couldn’t help but want to rely on him.

“Then don’t go back, and live with me first.” Song Zhou kissed Xi Ning’s forehead from an angle that the driver could not see, and his fingers softly smoothed Xi Ning’s hair. “Is your estrus period nearing? I will take care of you, okay?”

Song Zhou had thought about this issue a long time ago. Xi Ning could only eat well if he was there. If the Xiao family disagreed with him coming to visit Xi Ning every day, he might as well take Xi Ning away. He was confident that he could take care of Xi Ning.
