"Of course!" Zhouzhou patted her little chest proudly. "I'm amazing!"
"Sharp Tongue Uncle, don't you believe ?" Her round eyes stared at him, convinced that she had proven herself.
"I do, I do!" Without hesitation, Ye Lingfeng nodded. How could he not believe her? Besides, Zhouzhou was indeed impressive, even that Cen Zhiyuan couldn't match her.
He looked at her and said seriously, "Then Zhouzhou, you'll have to work hard."
"Not hard at all, it's actually quite simple." Zhouzhou waved her hand nonchalantly.
Previously, they couldn't find An Ya's spiritual body because they needed her blood or the blood of a close relative. At that ti, she didn't know her true identity. Now that she knew she was An Ya's daughter, it would be much easier.
Thinking that he would soon see An Ya, Ye Lingfeng couldn't help but feel excited.
Coincidentally, the boss lady ca over with the food, so he didn't continue the conversation. After all, it wasn't appropriate to let others overhear such things.
"Sharp Tongue Uncle, can I start eating?" Zhouzhou looked at the delicious food, her mouth watering.
"Yes, you can." Ye Lingfeng nodded.
Zhouzhou imdiately picked up her bowl and started eating!
The boss lady had initially felt embarrassed and didn't want to intrude, but watching the father and daughter eat bowl after bowl of rice left her stunned.
When it was ti to check the bill, she couldn't help but say, "This little girl can really eat, just like you. It's obvious she's your own."
As she spoke, she glanced down at Zhouzhou's belly. How could such a small belly hold so much food?
Upon hearing these words, Ye Lingfeng's face brightened, and he smiled, "Thank you, boss lady."
Zhouzhou also smiled happily and said, "Auntie, the food here is really delicious. I'll co again next ti."
"Alright." The boss lady liked her very much and casually grabbed a handful of candy from the counter and put it in her pocket. "Take this and eat."
"Thank you, Auntie!" Zhouzhou instantly bead with joy.
"You're welco."
As she watched them walk away, the boss lady walked into the kitchen and couldn't help but say, "I don't know what happened, but when that young man ntioned his wife earlier, he looked quite sad. I hope nothing bad happened."
The boss, a quiet and reserved person, shook his head upon hearing this. "Don't ask about it anymore. In case sothing really happened, it would make people uncomfortable if they heard."
"Ah, I couldn't help it. They're such a good couple. I rember that girl..." At this point, her voice suddenly trailed off. She rembered sothing, her lips twitched, and she concluded, "She really stands up for her husband."
She rembered that one evening, after they finished eating, soone ca to provoke them and said so nasty things. Ye Lingfeng seed ready to cause trouble but protected An Ya and left.
At that ti, An Ya was hiding in Ye Lingfeng's arms, looking fragile and pitiful.
In the evening, when she went out to take out the trash, she saw the girl in the alley holding a stick, with a pile of people lying on the ground. They were the ones who had bullied them earlier, begging for rcy on their knees. Looking at An Ya, her foot was stepping on a stone, and the stick was spinning between her fingertips with an imposing aura. There was no trace of "fragility" at all.
However, it was strangely adorable.
Recalling the past and considering Ye Lingfeng's reaction just now, the boss lady couldn't help but shake her head again, hoping that their family would be well.
After leaving the restaurant, Zhouzhou tugged at Ye Lingfeng's sleeve and urged, "Sharp Tongue Uncle, what happened next? In the beginning, Mom ignored you. How did she eventually agree to be with you?"
The little girl's face was full of curiosity, her ears perked up, waiting to hear the story.
But Ye Lingfeng mischievously teased her, saying, "Zhouzhou, you've already called her mom. Why are you still calling uncle? It doesn't match, does it?"
Upon hearing this, Zhouzhou wrinkled her nose and let go of his hand. "Then I won't listen anymore."
After all, she couldn't change her words.
Seeing her turn to leave, Ye Lingfeng quickly grabbed her hand and said, "I was just joking with you, it's okay to call uncle."
He sighed, feeling a bit frustrated. If Zhouzhou had encountered him as the first person when she ca down from the mountain, wouldn't it be great? Instead, Qin Lie took the lead. How annoying!
He gritted his teeth but didn't want to delay any longer. He quickly continued telling the story, observing Zhouzhou's reactions. Seeing her getting interested, he felt relieved.
In the afternoon, Zhouzhou didn't feel like playing anymore. She had a new hobby now—eagerly watching Ye Lingfeng and occasionally asking, "And then?" "What happened next?" She was a very attentive listener.
The Qin brothers also joined in.
Seeing this, Ye Lingfeng decided to find a place for them to sit and continue the story. As the sky grew dark, he strategically stopped the story at the point where they most wanted to know the answer, leaving Zhouzhou hanging. Even when they returned to the Qin residence, she still clung to him, urging him to continue the story.
When Qin Lie returned, this was the scene he witnessed. Zhouzhou was propping her cheek on her hand, looking at Ye Lingfeng closely, almost sitting right next to him, chattering away happily.
Grandma Qin and Qin Er and the others also gathered around, all looking at them, creating a pleasant atmosphere.
Qin Lie paused for a mont, quietly watching them. It had only been a day, but the changes in the family were so significant. How did Ye Lingfeng manage to do it?
He stood still, pondering this question.
Ye Lingfeng had sensed it as soon as Qin Lie returned but deliberately didn't ntion it.
However, Zhouzhou, being sharp-eyed, quickly discovered it. Her eyes lit up, and her small figure quickly stood up. She opened her chubby arms and pounced toward him, saying, "Dad!"
Ye Lingfeng's heart sank instantly, his previous pride completely wiped away.
But Qin Lie felt relieved. He bent down, caught Zhouzhou, and carried her as he walked toward the sofa. Casually, he asked, "What were you talking about?"
"We were listening to Little Ye telling the story of him and An Ya," Grandma Qin answered, wiping away a tear. "It would be great if we could turn it into a TV drama. It's so touching."
But Ye Lingfeng smiled and said, "There's no need for gimmicks like that. My feelings for Yaya are in my heart, and that's enough. I will always rember her. When Zhouzhou wants to hear, I will tell her the story and let her know her mother a little more. That's sufficient."
Hearing this, Grandma Qin beca even more moved. "Good child, you've worked hard all these years. If An Ya could hear these words, she would be at peace."
Upon hearing these words, Ye Lingfeng's expression flickered.
He had been busy telling stories to Zhouzhou and getting closer to her, but he had forgotten about finding Yaya.
Zhouzhou also rembered this matter and impatiently kicked her chubby legs. She hurriedly said, "Dad, put down first. I'll summon Mom's soul."
Qin Lie naturally didn't stop her in this matter. He nodded and put her down on the ground.
As soon as her feet touched the ground, Zhouzhou took out a piece of yellow paper from her bag, pricked her finger, cald her mind, and slowly drew a talisman.
She was a little nervous, eager to et An Ya. She had heard that her mother was very gentle.
After a short while, the talisman was complete. Zhouzhou held it up, closed her eyes, ford a complex hand seal with her fingers, and chanted incantations. The fragrance of sandalwood on the side began to burn slowly.
In just a few seconds, everyone felt the temperature in the living room suddenly cool down, and the curtains swayed along with it.
The next mont, a clear and bright female voice sounded in their ears.
"Who summoned ? I'm in the middle of a fight!"
