The statent was not entirely accurate.
Zhouzhou was only unfamiliar with simplified characters, but she could still recognize traditional ones.
However, simplified characters were more prevalent in the city.
Qin Lie suddenly realized that Zhouzhou's learning progress was unlike other children's, and he pondered making so adjustnts.
But now was not the ti to delve into that.
Qin Lie glanced around and said to Zhouzhou, "Let's go eat first."
"Okay, okay!" Zhouzhou's eyes lit up as soon as she heard the ntion of food, and she nodded happily.
Jinbao, perched on her shoulder, gazed at the paper in Qin Lie's hand and breathed a sigh of relief.
At least there was one reliable person in this family.
They entered a restaurant and booked a private room.
Qin Lie handed the paper to Zhouzhou and asked, "Zhouzhou, do you know what's written on it?"
Zhouzhou shook her head, indicating she didn't understand, which was why she had thrown it away, thinking it was scrap paper.
"Dad, is this very important?"
"Yes, it is." Qin Lie didn't beat around the bush. "It's from Luo Jin, detailing thods to counter Ye Lingfeng."
What?
Zhouzhou's mouth gaped open, and she quickly picked up the paper.
Qin Lie chuckled, "You're holding it upside down."
"Oh, right." Zhouzhou flipped it over but still couldn't understand much, only recognizing a few characters that were similar in both simplified and traditional forms.
She looked up at Qin Lie for help.
Qin Lie flipped through a page and pointed, "This is the reason he ca for you."
The page wasn't a plan but a notification.
It stated that leaders would be selected for the Dragon, Tiger, Lion, Wolf, and Spirit groups, which Qin Lie surmised was a competition organized by Ye Lingfeng's workplace.
The groups could be distinguished from the handcuffs given to Zhouzhou.
Luo Jin belonged to the Spirit group.
Qin Lie didn't elaborate on these details, for they might be confidential.
He said succinctly, "They're holding a competition, and Ye Lingfeng and Luo Jin are rivals."
Upon hearing this, Zhouzhou blinked, "Are they going to fight?"
Her tone carried an unexpected excitent, almost begging to be included.
Qin Lie shook his head, "Zhouzhou, it's dangerous."
Given Ye Lingfeng's abilities and status, only those with considerable skills would consider him a rival.
Luo Jin must possess so prowess to dare challenge him.
More importantly, Luo Jin's malicious intentions to threaten Ye Lingfeng using Zhouzhou and An Ya were beneath Qin Lie's contempt.
Zhouzhou blinked, trying to suppress her excitent, "And then?"
Qin Lie sighed and continued, "He probably wants to use you to threaten Ye Lingfeng, so you should stay away from him."
Upon hearing this, Zhouzhou's face turned serious, and she tilted her head, "Will I be a burden to Sharp Tongue Daddy?"
Qin Lie patted her head, "No, it's just for precaution."
Zhouzhou had never been a burden.
However, Ye Lingfeng's identity was special, and since they had recognized each other, this matter was bound to beco known.
Fortunately, Luo Jin only sought to win the competition and would unlikely harm Zhouzhou, so he wasn't a true enemy.
Jinbao nodded vigorously.
Absolutely, the forr owner was indeed cunning and deceitful!
Not a villain, but definitely not a good guy!
Noticing Jinbao's reaction, Zhouzhou imdiately understood, "Jinbao, you're so good. You got this back, didn't you?"
"ow." Jinbao proudly lifted its double chin and, with a light touch of its toe, jumped onto her head, cuddling up to Jinbao affectionately.
Wherever there was rit, it would go.
Unexpectedly, the little undercover agent had actually helped them in the end, which amused Qin Lie sowhat.
These animals seed to have a particular affinity for Zhouzhou.
Even Wangcai, upon first encountering Zhouzhou, had been chard and taken ho by her.
Although Zhouzhou had been innocent then, thinking that whatever she found belonged to her, it wouldn't have been possible without Wangcai's willingness.
However, gazing at the docunts in his hand, Qin Lie couldn't determine whether this was a blessing or a curse.
In his heart, he didn't want Zhouzhou to have too much contact with Ye Lingfeng's work.
Fortunately, they had at least clarified Luo Jin's intentions now, so they weren't completely in the dark.
Zhouzhou, being young and forgetful, had already forgotten about the incident after dinner and was rrily dragging Qin Er to set up their stall again.
Seeing her like this, Qin Lie's gaze softened.
anwhile.
At Luo Jin's residence.
He stared at the surveillance video, and his handso face filled with coldness.
That little traitor!
Indeed, it couldn't be trusted.
He took a deep breath, barely suppressing his anger, and opened a hidden app on his phone, their internal ssaging software.
Entering the group chat, the competition announcent was pinned at the top.
So people had even blatantly opened gambling, betting on who would win.
As the leader of the Dragon squad, Ye Lingfeng naturally topped the list.
However, it left a sour taste in his mouth.
He clicked on another ranking, which displayed the strength ranking of all mbers. Ye Lingfeng occupied the first spot, where his na had once been.
Since Ye Lingfeng's arrival, he had beco the perpetual second-place holder.
Everyone's eyes could only see Ye Lingfeng.
Why?
His face darkened.
However, Ye Lingfeng was not without flaws now. Once a person had sothing to hold dear, they were no longer invulnerable.
He would see if Ye Lingfeng could remain so composed with his daughter in his hands.
Huh.
Zhouzhou had never expected that he would actually target her, and was now holding the money with a delighted smile.
"Brother Dafu, why don't you teach how to make them too? We can work together and sell more." Zhouzhou suggested, leaning over.
Upon hearing this, Qin Er glanced at Zhouzhou's tiny paw and promptly shook his head in refusal.
Zhouzhou's hands were useless for anything besides drawing talismans.
Especially in the field of art, she had no talent at all.
Teaching her? It would be a sheer waste!
Unexpectedly rejected, Zhouzhou puffed her cheeks, feeling slightly aggrieved. "Why, Brother Dafu? Aren't we supposed to earn money together?"
"I'll make them, you can just count the money." Qin Er remained firm in his refusal.
In the face of money, there was no brotherly love to speak of.
He was a clear-headed career-minded individual.
Seeing this, Zhouzhou felt slightly depressed and gave him a mournful look. "Brother Dafu, you've changed."
After saying that, she hugged Qin Lie's leg in anger, seeking comfort.
Qin Lie patted her head gently.
As he was about to speak, his phone suddenly rang urgently.
It was Ye Lingfeng calling.
Had he finished his business?
He answered the call, but the voice was not Ye Lingfeng's.
Upon hearing the words from the other side, his expression imdiately changed.
Chen Tuo spoke urgently, "Mr. Qin, there's been an accident with the boss!"
