Mother Xiao called Xiao Yuan and only then realized the phone number had long been disconnected.
There was no one at school, and none of Xiao Yuan's friends knew where he was. This really worried Mother Xiao.
She cried and called Mr. Xiao: "Old Xiao, our son is missing."
Mr. Xiao thought something had happened to Xiao Nian: "What happened to Nian Nian?"
"It's Yuan Yuan." Mother Xiao quickly explained the situation about Xiao Yuan: "What do you think we should do? Could something have happened to him? Should we call the police?"
"He's a grown man; what could possibly happen to him?" Mr. Xiao comforted Mother Xiao while he also became a little anxious: "You head home first. We'll talk about it at home."
