Yang Jingyiâs lips twitched, âSheâs my childhood friend. We grew up together. I was planning to have dinner with her when sheâs free and introduce you to them.â
The man nodded, âNext week then. Iâm free next week.â
â â I donât have time, and neither do you.â The little girl said.
âIâll ask them if theyâre free next week.â Yang Jingyi looked at the girl and
hesitated.
The man frowned slightly and turned to look in the direction where Ji
Yuanyuan had left.
Coincidentally, Ji Yuanyuan was placing Tangtang on the safety seat.
When the man saw Ji Yuanyuanâs car, his eyes narrowed slightly.
On the way back, Ji Yuanyuan started to worry.
What was the relationship between Yang Jingyi and this man?
This man looked to be at least thirty-five years old, and he was holding a
childâs hand.
Moreover, the manâs gaze made her feel uncomfortable.
âMom, can we go look for Grandpa when we get home later?â When they were about to reach the door, Tangtang started to play tricks again.
Ji Yuanyuan glanced at her through the rearview mirror.
She understood her daughterâs thoughts at a glance.
She definitely wanted to show off her little red flower.
âDaddy and Grandpa will be back in two hours. Letâs wait at home, okay?â Ji
Yuanyuan ignored his daughterâs request.
âI want to go now,â Tangtang pouted.
âBut Mommy is very tired today.â
âAlright then.â Tangtang sighed deeply.
Ji Yuanyuan smiled and praised her, âTangtang is really an obedient child.
When we sees the teacher tomorrow, Mommy will tell her.â
Tangtang sat in the safety seat and chuckled.
A moment later, she muttered to herself, âItâs just amazing.
Ji Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment when she heard this.
However, she quickly realized why Tangtang would say that.
When she was chatting with Yang Jingyi, the little girl said, âItâs just a little red flower, whatâs so great about it?â
It was just amazing.
Ji Yuanyuan held back her laughter and thought, âMy daughter is quite vengeful, but isnât her reaction too slow?
She had already gone home, and she only wanted to retaliate.
Of course, Ji Yuanyuan did not say anything.
She was just a child, so she should be able to forget about it very quickly.
Before alighting from the car, Ji Yuanyuan removed the red flower from her clothes and pasted it onto Tangtangâs clothes.
Tangtang got out of the car and ran to find Cheng Shuqin.
Ji Yuanyuan took her school bag from the car. When he followed her, she heard Tangtang flaunting to Cheng Shuqin, âThere are only five. The teacher said that only obedient children have them.â
âOnly five?â Cheng Shuqin was also very supportive and pretended to exaggerate. âThen our Tangtang is one of them? Wow, how can Tangtang be so powerful?â
Tangtang raised her head, a smile that could not be hidden on her little face.
Qin Junshan also praised, âOur⦠Tangtang is⦠smart. In the future⦠great
future.â
Tangtang pursed her lips. With a wave of her hand, she took off the little red flower from her body. Then, she jumped down from the sofa and ran to Qin junshan. She pressed the little red flower on his body, âGreat-grandfather, this is for you.â
Ji Yuanyuan entered the room and saw this scene. âDidnât Tangtang say she was going to give this little red flower to me at the school gate? Why are you giving it to Great-grandfather now?â
Tangtang blinked and looked at Ji Yuanyuan, then at Qin Junshan.
Soon, she reached out her little claws and carefully took the little red flower off Qin Junshanâs body. She was probably afraid Qin Junshan would be sad, so she even coaxed him very considerately, âGreat-grandfather, I forgot just now. Iâll give it to you tomorrow, okay?â
As soon as she said this, everyone present laughed.
Cheng Shuqin went forward and hugged Tangtang. She kissed her twice, âThen,
Iâll give the one the day after tomorrow to Grandma, okay?â
âOkay, then Iâll give it to Grandpa, Grandma, Grandpa, First Uncle, First Aunt, and Second Uncle.â Tangtang agreed.
Seeing that Tangtang still could not count Qin Mucheng, Cheng Shuqin quickly reminded her, âDid Tangtang forget something? What about Daddy?â
Tangtang blinked, âDaddy doesnât like this.â
âTangtang didnât even ask Daddy. How do you know Daddy doesnât like it?â
Cheng Shuqin asked.
âDaddy just doesnât like it.â Tangtang mumbled, her eyes drifting.
As she spoke, she had already run to the side to rummage through her toys.
Cheng Shuqin looked at Tangtangâs back and sighed.
A moment later, she looked at Ji Yuanyuan and whispered, âItâs all our fault.
Weâve spoiled her too much. We have to think of a way.â
Whether it was Cheng Shuqin and her husband, Qin Junshan, Li Xu and his wife, or even Ji Zixuan and Huang Weiwei, they would usually grant Tangtangâs every request.
Qin Mucheng was the only one who was stricter with Tangtang. He would be fierce when he needed to be fierce and teach her a lesson when he needed to. Comparing the two of them, that was why Tangtang was not that close to Qin
Mucheng now.
just like earlier, she knew very well that she did not want to give the little red flower to Qin Mucheng.
âMucheng said that heâll bring Tangtang out for a couple of days during National Day,â Ji Yuanyuan said softly. âMaybe itâll improve. Qin Mucheng must have realized this as well, which was why he suggested bringing Tangtang out to play alone on National Day. Cheng Shuqin nodded and said somewhat embarrassedly, âYour father and I have been talking about this recently. The child has grown up, and itâs true that we canât pamper her as much as we did when she was young. We should let her know whatâs right and whatâs wrong. Your dad and I have been changing
recently.â
Ji Yuanyuan smiled, âMom, Iâm also responsible for this. Letâs change together.â She was the same. She could not be ruthless to her daughter.
After dinner, Qin Mucheng played with Tangtang for a while before sending Ji Yuanyuan to work.
On the way, Ji Yuanyuan talked to Qin Mucheng about what happened today, âSheâs in school now, and the teachers will teach her. Donât be so strict with her like before. Sheâs already starting to remember things at this age.â
Qin Mucheng hummed, âGot it.â
After sending Ji Yuanyuan off, Qin Mucheng instructed her, â1â11 pick you up tomorrow morning. Go to the parking lot to find me.
Ji Yuanyuan knew that Qin Mucheng was worried about her. She hesitated for a moment before nodding.
Doctor Liu was on the night shift with Ji Yuanyuan.
As soon as he sat down, Dr. Liu said, âThe bodies of the mother and daughter from last night are still in the morgue of the hospital. The family members are unwilling to take them away. They insist that the hospital compensate them.â Ji Yuanyuan took a deep breath, unwilling to listen to these words. She felt uncomfortable listening to them.
She was about to say something when her phone rang.
Ji Yuanyuan heaved a sigh of relief, âIâm sorry, Doctor Liu,â she said softly. âI need to take this call.â
She stood up and walked out of the office.
It was Yang Jingyi..
