184 Chapter 184 Rest

The following fireworks were in the shape of a crowned crane. Before it was ignited, the red-crowned crane looked elegant, its white feathers fluttering in the wind as if it were about to ascend to the immortal world.

After it was lit, with a melodic sizzling sound, oval-shaped eggs fell from the crane’s tail and exploded into a ball of fire in mid-air. It really looked like it was laying eggs; what a spectacular scene.

In the end, the crowned crane soared into the sky and burned brightly in the night.

Next was a fish, and finally, a rat.

!!
When the final rat-shaped firework was released, the people were still unsatisfied. At that moment, a scream suddenly rang out. It was unknown what the scream was about, but soon there was a commotion, which finally turned into chaos.

After a while, the three discovered that someone had lost a child, and someone else shouted that they had also lost a girl.

“Let’s go back to the restaurant,” Gu Chengrui said. “I’m afraid we won’t be able to go home today.”

“Why?” Gu Chengxi asked in confusion.

“Because so many children have gone missing, the authorities will definitely lock down the town for an inspection. Or rather, they have already locked it down, so we can’t go home.” Zhou Ying said.

“Oh, then where are we going to stay? These human traffickers really deserve to die.” Gu Chengxi said it gloomily.

“You go back to your snack shop. If you don’t have a place to stay, you can come to our place and squeeze in with the others.” Gu Chengrui said.

“Thank you for taking me in, Third Brother.” Gu Chengxi immediately grabbed his arm and said.

Gu Chengrui smiled and didn’t say anything else as the three hurried back.

When they passed the snack shop, they realized it was locked. They didn’t know if the others had gone to watch the fireworks or if they had gone home, so they brought Gu Chengxi back to the restaurant.

Sun Hongliang, who was settling the accounts, saw them come in and asked, “Mistress, why have you all come back this fast?”

“Have the others returned yet?” Zhou Ying asked.

“Not yet, but it should be soon.

“Something happened over there. I heard that some people lost their children. If you’re done recording the accounts, you can go back first, and we’ll stay here tonight.”

Sun Hongliang was stunned for a moment. Thinking of his family, he nodded. “Then I’ll go back first and come back early tomorrow.”

After he finished, he put a sheet of paper into the account book, closed it, and locked it in the drawer with the bookmark.

After he left, Zhou Ying also allowed Zhang Da and the others to return and closed up shop.

As for the group of little beggars, she didn’t let them go. First, it was so she could keep an eye on them, as it wasn’t safe for them to go back now.

Therefore, they were gathered in the central room in the backyard. They laid out a few straw mats and a few blankets so the children could sleep in the room for the night.

As for Gu Chengxi, it was arranged for him to sleep with Zhao Sheng.

Soon, Gu Wen and the other two ran in, talking and laughing.

However, after waiting a long time, Li Sheng’s family of three did not appear. Zhou Ying suddenly felt a little uneasy, afraid that something would happen to Li Yue.

Fortunately, the family of three finally came back around midnight.

“What’s the matter with you guys?” Zhou Ying asked hurriedly. “Why are you back so late?”

“After the fireworks, they discovered human traffickers. The officers immediately sealed off the scene and checked everyone one by one. We were delayed when we were queuing.” Li Sheng said with a fearful expression.

He hugged Li Yue tightly after he finished speaking.

“I see; you guys should go to bed early.” Zhou Ying comforted them and told the family of three to go home.

After they left, Gu Chengrui turned his head and said, “Babe, you should go to sleep too. I’ll be fine here.”

“That’s right. Sister-in-law, you should go to sleep. Brother Gu and I will take care of things here.” Tian Jiawang walked over and said.
