Beloved One of the Prestigious Household

Three-and-a-half-year-old little girl, also known as Ann, lived a life of scarcity and hardship in an orphanage, where even a single steamed bun could lead to beatings and scoldings from the headma...

Chapter 27: Step by Step, No Rush

The private compartment also had a floor-to-ceiling window that offered a view, although it was much smaller compared to the ones in the top-floor office.

However, it was closer to the ground.

Qin Haochen ordered some food and instructed the kitchen to bring it over.

As he turned his head, he saw Ann had once again run to the window and leaned against it.

Qin Sui’an pressed her entire little face against the window, her chubby cheeks squished, looking irresistibly adorable to anyone who saw her.

Fortunately, the window was clean and wouldn’t dirty her face.

After watching for a while, as if suddenly discovering something, she excitedly pointed in the direction downstairs with her little hand and said in a sweet voice, "Daddy, Ann saw Sixth Brother!"

Sixth Brother? Qin Qianyi has arrived?

Qin Haochen’s eyebrows furrowed instantly.

He walked to the window and looked down, indeed seeing one of their Qin family’s luxury cars leaving from the main entrance of the Qin Corporation building.

Seeing how excited Ann was, Qin Haochen didn’t want this little son to disturb their daddy-daughter time alone, nor did he dare to stop him.

Qin Sui’an turned her little head and looked at her daddy, blinking her round eyes, and worriedly asked, "Daddy, will Sixth Brother know that we are in this room?"

Qin Haochen smiled softly and replied gently, "He should know."

Qin Qianyi had plenty of tricks up his sleeve and a quick mind.

How could he not guess that they were in the private compartment of the Chinese dining area?

Qin Sui’an thought carefully for a moment, then took small steps and walked to the door.

Standing on tiptoes, she reached for the door handle and opened the compartment door.

She stuck her little head out, and glanced outside, and only then did she realize that there were many, many people out there.

It was lunchtime, and other employees were gradually coming to the restaurant to have their lunch.

Qin Sui’an originally wanted to retreat back into the room, but suddenly changed her mind.

She stood at the doorway, blinked her round eyes, and curiously and cautiously observed everyone.

The location of the compartment was not secluded, but there happened to be two potted plants placed outside the door, blocking Ann’s tiny head.

No one noticed that a little girl was "secretly observing".

Every time Qin Sui’an saw a stranger before, her first reaction was fear.

But after this morning, she felt that Daddy’s words were right.

She had to follow her daddy’s words, step by step, without rushing, gradually becoming brave.

Qin Sui’an blinked her round eyes, and her initial timid mindset gradually disappeared.

She became bold and started observing these strangers outside.

The Qin Corporation had dedicated uniforms, although employees were not forced to wear them.

However, because the uniforms provided by the Qin Corporation were of excellent quality and had a good design, employees would choose to wear them.

At a glance, everyone was wearing the same clothes, but each person had their own characteristics.

At the nearest table, there were three beautiful older sisters who ate very little.

They chatted softly while eating, creating an elegant and comfortable scene.

Qin Sui’an overheard the older sisters talking about "being fat" and "losing weight" and such topics.

She blinked her round eyes, lightly furrowed her little eyebrows, shook her head, and in a sweet voice, murmured, "Not fat, the older sisters are not fat at all..."

Looking further away, there were several tables where Second Brothers and sisters sat alone, feeding each other.

Qin Sui’an tilted her little head, looked blankly for a while, and suddenly realized, Oh!!! Feeding Daddy was the same as feeding Ann!

She immediately turned her little head, revealing a cute smile on her face, and looked at her daddy.

In a very expectant tone, she asked, "Can Ann feed Daddy later? Please?"

Qin Haochen was momentarily stunned, his heart warmed, and he raised the corners of his lips, smiling as he replied, "Of course."

Receiving Daddy’s affirmative answer, Qin Sui’an pursed her little mouth, extremely happy.

She continued to look outside, in a beautiful mood, no longer afraid of these unfamiliar Second Brothers and sisters.

When Qin Qianyi found the Chinese dining area, he immediately spotted their Ann standing at the door of the compartment.

His handsome face instantly lit up with a smile, and he walked quickly towards Ann, waving his hand and shouting, "Ann! I’m here!"

His loud shout instantly drew everyone’s attention to the presence of the little girl.

Countless gazes fell on the little girl at the same time.

Oh my! Is this the new young chairman who caused a frenzy within the company this morning?

Qin Sui’an wasn’t frightened by their gazes.

She stood on tiptoes, raised her little hand, and waved at her Sixth Brother, sweetly calling out, "Sixth Brother, Ann is here!"

Those gazes instantly turned into affectionate smiles: Ah! The young chairman is so adorable!

"I see, I see!" Qin Qianyi quickened his pace and reached Ann in just a few seconds.

He was deeply moved and hugged Ann tightly.

"Oh, Ann is so thoughtful, even waiting for me at the door!"

Qin Sui’an suddenly remembered something, and her expression became a little embarrassed.

She whispered, "Ann forgot that she was supposed to wait for Sixth Brother to come..."

She was busy looking at others when she heard her name being called by her Sixth Brother, and only then did she notice him.

When Qin Qianyi saw Qin Sui’an, he felt like she was captivated by something she was looking at.

Upon hearing her words, he immediately crouched down and curiously asked, "So, Ann, what were you looking at just now?"

Qin Sui’an approached her Sixth Brother and gently tugged at his ear, using a sweet and tender voice, she said, "Sixth Brother, Ann was looking at the Second Brothers and sisters at that table."

Feeling the ticklish sensation in his ear, Qin Qianyi suppressed a smile and followed her gaze, only to see the men and women at that table finishing their meal and gradually getting closer to each other.

Um... Qin Qianyi was only fourteen years old and felt a bit bashful about such intimate interactions between couples.

His face turned red, and he quickly picked up Ann and walked towards the private room.

Qin Haochen, seeing him enter with a flushed face, was a bit puzzled.

"Is it very hot outside?"

"Um, it’s a little bit hot," Qin Qianyi held Ann and approached the dining table, asking, "Dad, does our group have any rules against workplace romance?"

"No," Qin Haochen furrowed his brows slightly, "Why do you care so much?"

With such a promising position in the Qin Corporation, it could be said that the future was boundless.

No one would lose their job due to a romantic relationship.

If someone’s work was truly affected by love, it could only mean that their mentality was unstable, and their dismissal would be due to their overall lack of strength.

Qin Sui’an was placed in a child’s high chair by her Sixth Brother.

She tilted her little face, looking at her Sixth Brother and then at her daddy, blinking her round eyes curiously.

"Daddy, what is workplace romance?"

Qin Haochen rubbed her little head and smiled, "Ann is still young."

Qin Qianyi hesitated to speak but then stopped himself, hesitating once again.

Qin Haochen caught a glimpse of his indescribable expression and asked, "What is it?"

"Dad..."

He first glanced at the curious little baby, Qin Sui’an, then leaned closer to Qin Haochen’s ear and whispered, "I almost got caught by Ann kissing someone just now, luckily I ran away!"

Qin Haochen: ...

The curious baby with excellent hearing blinked her round eyes and tilted her little head, "Kissing?"
