Qingtian woke up in the morning and waited for her parents to pick her up. This was what Mrs. Ye had agreed with her before.
So after breakfast, Qingtian got dressed and got ready.
But no matter how long she waited, Boss Ye and Sister Ye never came to pick her up.
Qingtian was visibly getting a little anxious.
No matter how Qin Hexuan coaxed her, she was a little absent-minded.
"Are you in such a hurry to leave? Don't you want to play with me anymore?"
"No." Qingtian raised his hand to support his cheek, squeezing out a little fat on his chubby face, and said with a sad face, "But mom said she would pick me up early in the morning..."
In fact, what Qingtian was most worried about was whether Boss Ye and Sister-in-law Ye would no longer want her like the Shan family did.
Although every time Qingtian saw Qin Hexuan, she liked to tell him everything that had happened to her during this period.
But for some reason, she didn't want to share this insecurity with Qin Hexuan at all.
On sunny days, he would take out his pocket watch to check the time every once in a while.
As the pointer gradually passed the Si hour, Qingtian became more and more uneasy.
She looked up at Qin Hexuan and asked pitifully in a low voice, "Brother Qin, could something have happened to my parents?"
Qin Hexuan had never seen her so worried, so he hurriedly said, "Don't worry, maybe he was just tired from playing yesterday, so he overslept today. I'll send someone to find out."
This task naturally fell on Song Tao again.
After hearing Qin Hexuan's instructions, Song Tao immediately looked bitter.
"Master, there are so many inns of all sizes in the capital, this one is not easy to find!"
"You go to the General's Mansion first." Qin Hexuan said.
"Ah?" Song Tao was stunned when he heard this. When did the Ye family become related to the General's Mansion?
But Qin Hexuan turned around and went back to the house after giving the order. He didn't dare to go in and ask again, so he had to bite the bullet and lead people to ask.
Who would have thought that when we arrived at the General's Mansion and asked, we found out that the Ye family was really there.
Hearing that someone from the Qin Mansion was looking for Boss Ye and Sister-in-law Ye, the doorman quickly brought the person in.
Song Tao was still a little confused at this time, and finally believed it after seeing the Ye family.
"Hey, Uncle Ye, why are you still drinking tea here?"
"What's wrong?" Boss Ye was confused. What was wrong with drinking tea by himself?
"Didn't you promise Miss Sunny that you would pick her up early this morning?
"Miss Sunny has been waiting since early morning, but she's still not here. She's almost crying.
"That's why my young master asked me to come over and take a look."
This matter was actually agreed upon by Mrs. Ye and Qingtian. Boss Ye had no idea about it at all, but he could roughly guess what was going on.
"Her mother suddenly went out for something and hasn't come back yet. She must have been busy and forgot about it. I'll go with you to pick her up."
Song Tao guessed what his master was thinking and said, "There's no need to be so anxious. I'll go back and tell Miss Qingtian that I can pick her up after you're done."
But Boss Ye couldn't sit still. He knew that what Qingtian feared most was being disliked and abandoned by his parents again.
At this moment, his mind was filled with his daughter's pitiful face, looking like she was about to cry, so how could he sit still?
"I'd better go pick her up. It's a good opportunity to bring her over to meet her aunt and two cousins."
Ye Qingshan didn't know that Qingtian was adopted. Upon hearing this, he agreed repeatedly, "Our Ye family is a bunch of bad boys, and only two generations have such a little cotton-padded jacket. Big brother and sister-in-law are so lucky!"
He stood up and said, "I'll go with my brother to pick up Qingtian."
After he said this, the servants of the general's mansion immediately prepared the carriage.
The general's carriage stopped at the door of the Qin family, and Ye Qingshan and Ye Lao Da followed Song Tao in.
As soon as Qingtian saw Boss Ye, her eyes immediately turned red.
"Dad, why did you come to pick me up just now?"
If you don’t know, you might think she suffered some injustice in the Qin family!
"Your mother and your aunt went out to do something, and they didn't tell me they were coming to pick you up. Now you've messed things up!" Boss Ye picked up Qingtian and coaxed him, "It's all your fault. We won't do it again."
"Aunt?" Qingtian asked curiously, "Didn't my uncle say that Aunt is still at the border?"
Ye Qingshan blushed when he heard this, but he didn't know how to explain to the child that he had lied.
Qin Hexuan said calmly: "It must be that your uncle has been staying at your house for these days, and your aunt brought the children to visit him.
"Think about it, if your father went to a faraway place, would you also want your mother to take you to find him?"
"Yes!" Qingtian was immediately convinced. He put his arms around Boss Ye's neck and said, "Dad, you must take Mom and me with you wherever you go. Don't leave us behind!"
"Don't worry, Dad will take you wherever he goes." Boss Ye agreed readily.
Seeing that Qin Hexuan had helped him out of trouble, Ye Qingshan smiled at him gratefully.
Qin Hexuan then stepped forward and saluted, saying, "I've long heard my father tell of General Ye's legendary experiences. I never expected that thanks to the sunny weather today, I'd be able to meet the general. It's truly a great honor."
"Young Master Qin, you are truly overly kind. Although I am far away from the border, I have often heard the people praise and commend you over the years, and I have admired you for a long time."
Ye Qingshan was born into a common family and climbed up step by step entirely through military merit. He returned to Beijing years ago and had no support or faction.
Therefore, some people in the capital were dissatisfied with him, and naturally many people wanted to win him over.
Everyone originally thought that it was a good time to go out and about during the New Year, but who knew that the General's Mansion would actually close its doors to visitors from the first day of the New Year until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
