The Qian family carriage came at mealtime.

Qian Wanjin was the only one who came this time.

As soon as he entered the door, he felt the unusual atmosphere.

In the past, the courtyard, which was always full of vitality and laughter, was particularly silent today, with everyone in the family sitting in a corner, silent and gloomy. Even the smiling Grandma Liu who smiled every time she saw him also just barely curled the corner of her lips this time.

"Lucky Nannan, what's going on? Why is everyone looking like you're in mourning?" Qian Wanjin whispered as he approached Liu Yusheng, who was sitting on the porch.

Turning his head, he met the deep, dark eyes of the baby. Somehow, his eyelids fluttered and he panicked a little.

He felt a bad premonition.

"Young Boss, is your family very rich?"

"So-so, second in Nanling." In reply, Qian Wanjin subconsciously puffed out his chest. His chest, however, didn't stick out and his stomach instead became especially prominent.

"Then you must be doing a log of business. Is your network wide?"

Qian Wanjin's stomach immediately shrank and he looked at Liu Yusheng with wary eyes. "What do you want?"

"I want to ask a favor."

"Lucky Nannan, I'm a businessman, and as a successful businessman, I don't do anything that doesn't benefit me."

"Just say the price, as long as I can afford it."

Hearing that, Qian Wanjin slowly shed away the playfulness on his face and gazed quietly at the little child for a moment. In those clear black pupils, he actually saw a maturity and seriousness that surpassed her age.

She was really negotiating a price with him, not joking.

"What do you want me to do?"

"Help me disperse manpower and find Brother Axiu," Liu Yusheng said softly, her tone firm.

In the village, Grandpa and Dad had already gone to talk to the villagers and asked them to help find him together.

They've been busy all morning, running around the village and even to the town, but they haven't had any luck.

Moreover, each family has their own household to feed and their own things to do. Help was limited.

Liu Yusheng couldn't wait. While thinking of a way, Qian Wanjin was the first that came to mind.

Everyone in business has a wide network, so it would be more convenient and efficient for them to find him.

As long as he was willing to help, she was willing to pay any price.

Qian Wanjin fetched a stool and sat next to Liu Yusheng, regaining his hippie smile. "What? That kid's missing? And you have to go on a massive manhunt to find him? You're too nice to him. Who is he to you that you dare to tell this young master that the price is up to me?"

In the beginning, when they were negotiating about the distribution of shares in building the winery, even when his face turned crimson with anger, she refused to take any losses. But now, for the sake of that unrelated brat, she was surprisingly generous.
