Chapter 461: Kneeling On A Durian
“Does your brother know?” Yan Qiujin paused for a while, trying her best to remain calm. Upon seeing Huo Ci nod and say that they all knew, she held her breath. “I’ll ask him when we get back.”
Why had he not told her about such a big thing? Would she have shouted until the whole world knew that she could not keep a secret?
Nao Nao and Xiaoqi returned quickly and waved from afar. “Mommy, Auntie, there are roasted sweet potatoes over there. Xiaoqi wanted to eat some. I bought five. Let’s each have one.”
Yan Qiujin looked at her son. “Stop fooling around and call her Sister.”
Nao Nao did not know what was going on with the adults. One moment, she was an elder sister. Then, she was an auntie. Then, she became an elder sister again. He obediently changed the way he addressed her. “Sister.”
When they went to the parking lot, they pa.s.sed by a fruit stall and she picked the biggest durian.
Huo Ci asked, “Don’t you and Big Brother not eat durians? Why did you buy this?”
Yan Qiujin was angry, but she did not show it on her face. She said, “I can leave the durian meat for you. I only want the sh.e.l.l.”
Ling Sheng could not help but suppress her laughter, her face turning red in the meantime. She started to mourn in her heart. What else could she do? When her uncle got home, he would probably be kneeling on a durian to seek forgiveness.
“Sheng Sheng, I’m sorry. I didn’t get to the bottom of this.” Yan Qiujin did not know how to face Ling Sheng.
The young lady had been explaining that she and Sixth Brother did not have that kind of relationship, but how could one not think that way? They lived together and had a child.
“Doctor Yan, I didn’t explain clearly. This has nothing to do with you.” Ling Sheng knew that everyone in the capital who knew about her existence thought so.
Even Dongfang Meng, whom she had just met today, felt the same way.
As long as this matter was not made public, she would probably keep using this t.i.tle.
However, she was just a small fry. She could have objections, but if her father did not acknowledge them, what could she do?
“Why are you calling me Doctor Yan?” Yan Qiujin pretended to be angry.
Ling Sheng hurriedly changed the way she addressed her. “Auntie.”
Nao Nao was confused. He looked around before looking at Xiaoqi. In a low voice, he said, “You’re Sixth Uncle’s grandson. Sister is Sixth Uncle’s daughter, right?”
Xiaoqi’s small head spun as he nodded. In a lower voice, he said, “Yes, Grandpa forbade me to say anything. Mommy is my aunt outside, and Grandpa is my uncle.”
Although the two children’s voices were soft, Yan Qiujin, who was close, heard them immediately. She did not know what to say. Having a daughter was nice. She was like a considerate little plush blanket, pretty and sensible. How had she offended him? He had hidden her away and not revealed her after all.
There were many people in the capital who thought Sheng Sheng was his lover and Xiaoqi was his son, but he was satisfied.
Huo Ci took Yan Qiujin and Nao Nao back home first. When Yan Qiujin got out of the car, she even took with her the couple pajamas she had forced Ling Sheng to buy. She was extremely embarra.s.sed and angry. That sc.u.mbag Rong Yin had conned her to death!
Upon seeing the duo enter the district before going home, Huo Ci returned to his residence.
After Ling Sheng got out of the car, she gave him the windbreaker she had bought for him. “Father, I bought this for you. Take it. You don’t have to take us. Xiaoqi and I will walk home.”
Since they lived in the district next door, it wouldn’t take long for them to get home. She had not bought much stuff, so she could walk back.
Huo Ci did not speak, but he frowned, his handsome face darkening.
