Madam Wen smiled and gently declined, "How could I possibly accept this? We came without prior notice, which was already our fault. How could we let you go to so much trouble?"
Shi Wanwan smiled and said, "Mrs. Wen, what are you saying? Qiqi and Mingzhi are classmates. It's perfectly normal for them to come to a classmate's house to play. As the host, it's only natural to invite them."
Mrs. Wen smiled and said, "There's no need to be so formal. Since you're here to visit your child's classmate, you can eat at home."
"Alright, please wait a moment, I'll go tell the housekeeper."
"OK."
Ye Qi scratched his head.
How did the atmosphere change so quickly in just a few words?
I don't understand adults.
Shi Yun was also scratching his head in frustration.
No one was home today, so he was too lazy to go out for a meal and came here to freeload. He didn't expect Wen Mingzhi to bring his family.
Although he and Wen Mingzhi were good friends, he always felt that Wen Mingzhi's parents had too strong an aura, which made him want to run home and play with Gundam.
But thinking of my empty stomach, I held back.
Just as they were chatting.
The butler hurried over, approached Ye Qi, and whispered a few words in her ear: "Miss, a friend of yours has come."
Ye Qi: "?"
The housekeeper continued, "She said her name was Ye Xinchu."
Ye Qi stood up excitedly: "!"
Ye Qi: The missing person has returned!
Without waiting for a reply from the housekeeper, Ye Qi hurriedly ran out to pick up Ye Xinchu.
But we need to get on the bus first.
On the road, the driver was driving very slowly, and she wished she could take over and speed past him!
As soon as the car arrived at the door, Ye Qi got out and happened to see Ye Xinchu standing at the door impatiently swatting mosquitoes.
Without informing anyone, Ye Qi rushed over and threw herself into Ye Xinchu's arms.
Ye Xinchu was bumped into and hugged, then laughed and picked Ye Qi up like a child, weighing her in her arms: "Hmm? You've gained a little weight?"
Ye Qi nestled in Ye Xinchu's arms, rubbing against him trustingly like a kitten: "Mmm, I've been eating too well lately."
Ye Xinchu's eyes curved like the bright moon: "Yes, I know."
"My three little gluttons ate until they were bulging while I was away."
Ye Qi wasn't embarrassed at all: "Hehe."
Ye Xinchu smiled gently, "So, isn't our little Qiqi happy now?"
Ye Qi shook her head vigorously: "No!"
"I'm so happy!"
"Seeing you makes me happier than anyone else."
Ye Xinchu put her down, smiled, pinched her nose, and said in a doting tone, "You."
Ye Qi seemed to remember something: "By the way, why did you suddenly come here?"
Ye Xinchu didn't hide anything from her: "Fate might still target the Wen family. I came here to scout things out, just in case it affects your family."
"Um!"
Ye Qi took Ye Xinchu home.
As soon as Ye Qi entered the house, she keenly sensed that Ye Xin Chu's magic had spread to all three houses.
The Ye family, and two other families.
It seems to be to save the three families from the cruel tricks of fate.
When Ye Ji saw Ye Qi leading Ye Xinchu back, and saw Shi Wanwan busy dealing with Madam Wen, he stood up and greeted her with a smile.
"Qiqi, is this your friend?"
Ye Qi: "...Yes!"
Ye Xinchu responded politely, "Hello, Uncle, I am Ye Qi's friend, Ye Xinchu."
Ye Ji was taken aback, not expecting that Ye Qi's friend would happen to share the same surname.
For some reason, I felt an even stronger sense of warmth. "You're Qiqi's friend, come in quickly!"
Ye Xinchu smiled and handed the gift to the housekeeper, "I brought a small gift, I hope Uncle and Auntie will like it."
Ye Ji smiled and said gently, "Since you're Qiqi's friend, why bring a gift when you come to visit? Uncle thanks Xin Chu for her kindness this time, but don't bring a gift next time, it'll make us seem too distant!"
Ye Xinchu smiled and said, "Okay, Uncle."
Shi Yun saw Ye Qi and Ye Xinchu standing together, and quietly pulled Ye Qi aside to a corner where they were alone, whispering to each other:
"Qiqi, why are you playing with her?"
"What's wrong?"
"Back when we lived in the countryside, we often saw her spying on us like a perverted voyeur!"
Ye Xinchu, with her excellent hearing, continued to smile calmly: "..."
But in my heart I was complaining:
Tsk.
How did this brat find out?
Ye Qi, however, became unusually serious and said to Shi Yun with a solemn expression, "Brother, you may have misread it."
"Also... Chu Chu is an important person to me, she's not a pervert."
"Don't talk to her like that anymore, it will make me angry."
Shi Yun then understood Ye Xinchu's importance in Ye Qi's heart, and patted his chest, saying:
"Don't worry! I won't say that anymore! If my sister says she's not, then she's not!"
Shi Yun trusted Ye Qi completely.
Ye Qi said that Ye Xinchu is not a pervert.
In his mind, Ye Xinchu was not a pervert.
After finishing their meal, the Wen family members did not linger.
Ye Qi held onto Ye Xinchu tightly, refusing to let go, and begged Ye Xinchu to stay for the night.
Ye Xinchu couldn't persuade her otherwise, so she had no choice but to agree to stay.
While Ye Xinchu was taking a shower, Ye Ji and Shi Wanwan left Ye Qi, her older brother Ye Jingyan, and that silly Shi Yun behind.
Ye Zhixi is not home today.
Ye Qi was sitting on the sofa eating sunflower seeds when she received a message from Jiang Yihuan.
[Bald guy: Did you receive an invitation from the Si family?]
[Ye Qi: Hmm, I don't know.]
Si Yuelin said she would send an invitation, but she doesn't know yet whether she has received it.
Ye Ji seemed to respond to Ye Qi: "Qi Qi..."
