"Hiss... hiss..."
Ye Rongyuan was fiercely pecked by the big white goose several times, causing him to gasp in pain.
He quickly lowered his voice, "I am Ann’s uncle, not a bad person!"
"Ga?"
Ann’s little cousin?
The big white goose froze, temporarily ceasing its righteous act of chasing away the bad person.
It raised its small head and stared at him with its tiny, serious eyes.
It seemed that he was indeed Ann’s little cousin, sensing the blood relationship between him and Ann.
The big white goose folded its flapping wings and glanced at him, "Ga!" Why was Ann’s cousin so strange?
He entered the room, but why was he sneaking around like a thief? Acting so suspiciously!
But it couldn’t be blamed for mistaking him as a thief.
While Ye Rongyuan confronted the big white goose, the people inside the room heard the commotion outside.
Old Madam Ye held the little girl in her arms, furrowing her brows and looking towards the door.
She asked in a low voice, "Is someone outside?"
Ye Yanzhi also frowned in dissatisfaction.
At this hour, there shouldn’t be anyone coming over.
Ann, who was sleeping, let out a whimper, "Hmm..."
Old Madam Ye quickly lowered her head and saw the little girl drowsily opening his eyes. "Did we disturb you, Ann?"
"The big white goose was calling..."
Qin Sui’an raised a small hand and rubbed his eyes.
"The big white goose said there’s a thief."
Old Madam Ye and Ye Yanzhi exclaimed in unison, "A thief?!"
They exchanged glances and immediately stood up.
Ye Yanzhi walked ahead, and Old Madam Ye held the little girl tightly, cautiously following behind him.
The possibility of a thief entering the ward was extremely low, especially with their two assistants guarding the door.
But they didn’t let their guard down and approached the room door carefully.
The outside honking of the geese had quieted down, and there was a faint sound, but it was indistinct.
Ye Yanzhi looked vigilant as he opened the room door.
The next second, he saw his third son, Ye Rongyuan, standing outside in a disheveled state.
"Rongyuan, what are you doing here at this time?"
Shouldn’t Rongyuan be at the company at this hour? 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
Ye Rongyuan didn’t expect the room door to be opened by someone and hastily called out, "Dad..."
Then he looked behind his father, "Mom..."
And there, in his mother’s arms, was a little girl, "Ann..."
Ann had just woken up, with a slightly dazed expression.
His round, grape-like eyes blinked curiously, staring at him.
Ye Rongyuan’s state of mind instantly collapsed.
Before entering the ward, he had spent quite some time grooming himself, just to give the little girl a perfect first impression.
But now, after being pecked by the big white goose, his pants were wrinkled, and his hairstyle was a bit messy, completely ruining his image.
Without saying a word, Ye Rongyuan turned around and decisively ran out of the ward.
No, he couldn’t leave such an embarrassing image in the little girl’s heart!
"Rongyuan, where are you going?"
Ye Yanzhi was puzzled.
Old Madam Ye chuckled, "He must have gone to look in the mirror."
Qin Sui’an slowly regained consciousness, tilting her little face and softly asking, "Grandma, who is that?"
"It’s your third uncle, Ye Rongyuan."
Old Madam Ye gently touched her head.
"Did he scare you? Your third uncle is always like this, easily startled, just like a child."
Qin Sui’an shook her little head, "Ann is not afraid."
Her curious gaze turned towards the hastily opened ward door.
So, he was Ann’s third uncle.
The big white goose, feeling embarrassed, said to Ann, who had just woken up, "Ga, Ann, I thought your third uncle was a thief, so I shouted. Did I wake you up?"
"Third Uncle is not a thief!"
Qin Sui’an curved his round eyes and comforted the big white goose, saying, "It’s okay, Ann will wake up soon."
Old Madam Ye squatted down, letting little Ann play with the big white goose, and then said, "I’ll go out and take a look."
Ye Yanzhi nodded and stayed behind to accompany little Ann.
In the corridor.
Lucy and Jie Hansi both looked at each other, puzzled, as they gazed at the Third Master standing at the end of the corridor:
The Third Master seems to be very sad, why is that?
Old Madam Ye walked out of the ward.
Both assistants quietly called out, "Old Madam."
"Where is he?"
Old Madam Ye asked, then she saw Ye Rongyuan’s figure and walked towards him slowly.
Ye Rongyuan was busy looking at himself in the mirror, carefully rearranging his appearance.
Hearing footsteps, he turned his head and glanced, then shrugged in frustration, "Mom, did I scare Ann?"
"Not really, but he was indeed startled by your appearance."
Old Madam Ye caught sight of his wrinkled pants, with a faint feeling that they could tear at any moment, "Have someone bring you a new pair of pants."
"I already had my assistant bring them."
Ye Rongyuan kicked his foot, grimacing and taking a breath, "This goose is truly fierce! It almost bit me and drew blood! Is it a goose or a dog?"
"It’s Ann’s pet goose."
Old Madam Ye couldn’t help but smile, "It seems to have mistaken you for a thief."
"How do I look like a thief!"
Ye Rongyuan gritted his teeth, if it weren’t for little Ann’s pet goose, he would have cooked it on the spot!
Seeing that he didn’t suffer any external injuries, Old Madam Ye returned to the ward first.
Ye Rongyuan waited outside until his assistant rushed to bring the pants, and then he immediately went to the restroom to change and carefully tidy up his appearance before returning to the ward.
Inside the ward.
Qin Sui’an sat on the sofa, holding the big white goose in his arms, and the baby and the goose were talking.
Old Madam Ye and Ye Yanzhi sat beside them, listening without understanding the goose’s honking, but they could roughly guess what they were talking about from little Ann’s responses.
Suddenly, Qin Sui’an’s voice stopped, his pouting little mouth closed, and he turned his small head to look towards the ward door.
Immediately after, the ward door was lightly knocked twice.
Without waiting for a response from inside, Ye Rongyuan pushed the door open and entered.
He wore a neat high-end suit, his hair carefully styled, looking fresh and clean, with a handsome face carrying a serious expression, making him appear both noble and elegant.
Ye Rongyuan saw little Ann sitting on the sofa, and a smile that he had practiced countless times in front of the mirror appeared at the corner of his mouth.
His voice was steady:
"Ann, nice to meet you. I am your Third Uncle, Ye Rongyuan."
Qin Sui’an blinked his round eyes twice.
Nice to meet you for the first time. That’s not right!
Looking at Third Uncle who suddenly ran away and came back, Qin Sui’an corrected in a childish voice, "Third Uncle, Ann has already seen you earlier, this is the second time we met!"
Ye Rongyuan: ...
Little Ann’s memory is really good.
He felt a pang of sadness and wanted to cry.
