Ye Rongyuan’s face was filled with shock, as if he doubted he had heard correctly. He raised his hand to rub his ears and had to ask again, "What did Ann just say?"

"Little uncle didn’t hear wrong," Qin Sui’an shook her little head, her expression serious and sincere as she said, "Ann said she has mind-reading abilities~"

Ye Rongyuan froze, as if struck by lightning.

It wasn’t a misunderstanding; it was true—Ann really had mind-reading abilities!

What a miraculous power!

Ye Rongyuan even questioned if he was dreaming; it sounded so bizarre. He pinched his own cheek, wincing at the pain.

Not dreaming!

At this moment, Ye Rongyuan realized why he always felt Ann could see through his thoughts since they met—because Ann truly had mind-reading abilities.

He looked at Old Mrs. Qin and Qin Lvzheng, whose expressions showed no surprise at all. "When did Ann get mind-reading abilities? She didn’t have them the last time we met, right?"

Old Mrs. Qin smiled and explained, "It’s only been a few days; at first, we didn’t believe it either."

Ye Rongyuan lost interest in the chess pieces and scooped Ann into his arms, looking at her as if discovering a new world. "In just a few days apart, Ann has become so amazing!"

Qin Sui’an blushed under her uncle’s gaze and quietly said, "It can’t be known by outsiders~"

Her words explained why she hadn’t mentioned her mind-reading abilities the moment she saw him.

"Right, this can’t be known by outsiders," Ye Rongyuan nodded in agreement.

No wonder he had instructed his assistant to pay extra attention to the Qin family and hadn’t noticed Ann’s new abilities.

Ann had hidden it well! Indeed, no outsiders knew.

Hearing her uncle praise her in his heart, Qin Sui’an covered her mouth and smiled.

Halfway through their chess game, despite a clear outcome, they stopped playing.

Ye Rongyuan was extremely curious about Ann’s mind-reading abilities, bombarding her with questions.

Qin Sui’an obediently answered his queries, showing remarkable patience.

Meanwhile, Qin Haochen returned home from Qin Corporation. Not seeing his little one waiting at the castle entrance, he felt puzzled.

In the past, if little one was home, she would run out to greet him before he even reached the castle. What was different today?

Noticing the subtle expression on the president’s face, the bodyguard stationed at the entrance explained, "President, young Lord Rongyuan has arrived and is playing with Miss Ann in the living room."

Qin Haochen had seen Ye Rongyuan’s car at the Bay Villa entrance and was already aware that Ye Rongyuan had come early.

He composed himself and walked slowly into the castle.

Laughter and playful voices came from the living room—Ye Rongyuan’s voice, along with little one’s giggles.

Qin Haochen quickened his pace and reached the living room door, peering inside to see little one in Ye Rongyuan’s arms.

No wonder she wasn’t at the entrance; she had been "kidnapped."

Upon hearing her father’s voice, Qin Sui’an joyfully turned to the living room door, exclaiming, "Daddy~!" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Others also turned to see her calling out.

Qin Sui’an slipped from her uncle’s embrace, scampering towards her father.

"Ann." Qin Haochen smiled as he squatted down to scoop little one into his arms.

Qin Sui’an’s round eyes sparkled with happiness as she played with her father’s ear, softly saying, "Ann wasn’t kidnapped! Little uncle is just playing with Ann~"
