Seeing Xu Xiaoyue's surprised expression, Ye Qing said, "I don't know if he and Liu Wei plotted against me, but Liu Wei definitely won't let it go."
Xu Xiaoyue understood why Ye Qing had mentioned using the original design draft. What surprised and astonished Xu Xiaoyue was whether Xi Quan had really collaborated with Liu Wei.
So Xu Xiaoyue found it hard to believe: "I believe Liu Wei plotted against you, but Xi Quan... even though you haven't been in contact for years, I still feel like he wouldn't do that."
“I also think it's unlikely, but to be honest, I'm not quite sure what Xi Quan is planning to do. And from what Liu Yuliang said, I feel that Xi Quan won't do anything. That's why I said earlier that we should stick to the original plan and use the original design. Only in this way can we find out what Liu Wei really wants to do. We can't just wait passively; we have to take the initiative and force the other party to make a move.”
After explaining her thoughts, Ye Qing thought of the staff member she had seen at the studio who behaved differently from everyone else. After describing the staff member's characteristics to Xu Xiaoyue, she asked, "What's that person's name?"
“It should be called Li Yun.” Xu Xiaoyue thought for a moment and said, “Tomorrow or some other time, when we go to the store together, you point it out to me and I’ll see if it’s Li Yun.”
Ye Qing nodded.
Ye Qing was busy from morning till night today and didn't have time to look at houses, so she could only go to Xi Quan's place first, since the child was there too.
Xu Xiaoyue drove Ye Qing to Xi Quan's place and then left.
Ye Qing thought it was still Su Zhe watching over Ye Yiran and Ye Yixin, but before she could even push the door open, she could faintly hear laughter and chatter from inside. It was Xi Quan and the children.
Ye Qing froze the moment she raised her hand to push the door open. Although she couldn't hear the sounds inside very clearly from outside, she could clearly hear the child's laughter and Xi Quan's voice.
For a moment, Ye Qing wondered if she was being too cruel, always thinking about her relationship with Xi Quan without considering whether her child needed a father. However, as soon as this thought flashed through her mind, Ye Qing dismissed it.
Although all these years have passed, Ye Qing didn't want to recall the hardships she had endured. Of course, the hardships were her own choice, but she never intended to hide them from Xi Quan; it was simply that she couldn't find him.
Therefore, given the circumstances, Ye Qing felt that Xi Quan should bear the consequences of this outcome.
After thinking it over, Ye Qing raised his hand again and pushed open the villa door.
When the children saw Ye Qing, they chattered and called out to her, but they didn't rush over to hug her.
The two children seemed to think that they knew their mother had returned, that they had greeted her, and that we knew.
This attitude, whether towards adults or children, seemed very perfunctory. Ye Qing felt very disappointed because she and her two children had always depended on each other, and the children were very attached to her. However, it seemed that Xi Quan was gradually replacing her in the children's hearts.
In particular, after the two children called out to Ye Qing, they immediately started chatting happily with Xi Quan.
For a fleeting moment, Ye Qing wondered if she had made a mistake by letting Xu Xiaoyue bring the child back first.
The reason Ye Qing asked Xu Xiaoyue to bring the children back first was because Ye Qing was busy with her last job at the L family, which was the new fashion show. She was so busy that she really didn't have time to take care of the children. In addition, when Xu Xiaoyue and Ye Qing were joking, she complained about the two children's Chinese. Ye Qing thought that she would be back soon, and the children agreed, so she asked Xu Xiaoyue to bring the children back first.
At that time, even when the child and Liang Youjie were photographed together by reporters, Ye Qing did not think it was a mistake to let the child come back first. Now, seeing the child getting along well with Xi Quan, Ye Qing felt extremely disappointed and began to think about this issue.
The child couldn't tell from Ye Qing's emotional change, but Xi Quan could. He stopped smiling when he was with the child and asked Ye Qing, "What's wrong?"
Before Ye Qing could even speak, the two children tugged at Xi Quan, saying, "Dad, look!"
The children's affectionate address made Ye Qing, who was already feeling down, feel even worse. It was only then that Ye Qing noticed that the two children were drawing.
Ye Qing didn't want to wait for them to talk to her anymore, so she went over to see what the two children were drawing. Before she could even see what they were drawing, she heard Ye Yixin and Xi Quan explaining what she was drawing.
Ye Qing, who was already feeling a bit down, felt even more conflicted after hearing the child's words.
Neither of the children inherited Ye Qing's decent painting skills; their paintings were rather indescribable, but the meaning they conveyed was simple and unpretentious.
The four of them—father, mother, and child—are together in the drawing. This is what the child wants to express, but such a simple wish has become somewhat difficult.
Xi Quan also realized the problem, and he subconsciously looked at Ye Qing.
Ye Qing quickly looked away, not daring to look at Xi Quan, and fled to the kitchen as if trying to escape.
Ye Qing had only taken two steps when someone knocked on the door. Ye Qing hadn't planned to open it, because almost everyone who came here was looking for Xi Quan. Besides Xu Xiaoyue, he didn't have many friends in Nancheng. Xu Xiaoyue had just broken up with him, so she probably wouldn't come looking for him.
But the two children were chattering away, pulling at Xi Quan, and Xi Quan showed no intention of opening the door. He even ordered Ye Qing, "Go open the door."
Ye Qing was speechless at this attitude, but the doorbell kept ringing. Ye Qing didn't have the same patience as the father and his two sons, so he had no choice but to open the door.
Thinking it was Xi Quan's friend, Ye Qing opened the door and turned around without even glancing at him.
However, as soon as she turned around, she heard a deep but powerful voice behind her: "How rude?"
Ye Qing was slightly taken aback. Although she was certain from the voice that she had never heard it before, and in any case, she had indeed turned around without looking after opening the door, which was a bit impolite, she accepted what the other person said. Just as she was about to turn around, she saw Xi Quan rush over like an arrow and pull Ye Qing behind him.
Ye Qing was already very puzzled, and Xi Quan's actions made him even more confused.
What are you doing here?
Upon hearing Xi Quan's cold and stern voice, Ye Qing then looked at the person standing at the door, a sprightly old man.
"I've come to see the child," said the elderly man who stood at the door and walked straight inside.
Although Ye Qing didn't recognize the person in front of her, she could tell from his words who he meant by "looking after the children." Subconsciously, Ye Qing looked at the two children who were still drawing in the living room.
Like Ye Qing, Xi Quan looked at the child first upon hearing the old man's words, and then said to Ye Qing, "Take the child upstairs first."
