A scream

Qin Yan really adored the little guy. He was talented at everything. He could learn everything at a really fast pace. Also, he looked absolutely adorable. Who wouldn't like such an adorable and intelligent child!

As Qin Yan tended to the barbecue, the gentle breeze carried the earthy scent of the nearby river, creating a serene atmosphere. The rhythmic sizzling of skewers on the grill provided a comforting soundtrack to the picturesque scene. Amidst this peaceful setting, a subtle rustling emanated from the nearby bushes, catching Qin Yan's attention like a faint whisper in the tranquility.

She furrowed her brows, a twinge of concern flashing across her face. It wasn't just a casual rustling; there was an unspoken unease that seemed to cling to the sound. The melody of nature, once harmonious, now felt interrupted, and Qin Yan couldn't shake the feeling that something might be amiss.
