Ye Ling shook her head. She had gone to the Zhao Family’s house after having dinner at ho, where her mother was trying to persuade Ye Qian to eat more, so she didn’t know what had happened after she left.
The words that were at the tip of her tongue, Ye Ling swallowed back down, knowing that as soon as she spoke, her mother would be the first to co at her, as if she had done sothing terrible even though she hadn’t done anything yet.
Ye Ling shook her head, Bai Xue unhappily glared, "Hurry up and find her, Ye Qian argued with over you and left in anger. Just look at yourself! You’ve been cold to your sister all day, yet she speaks well of you to every day. How can you be so heartless?"
It turned out that when Bai Xue returned ho yesterday planning to make dinner, she found that half of a radish was missing and two bowls of millet rice were gone, and knew it had been eaten by Ye Ling. However, Ye Ling hadn’t left her room all night, and Bai Xue couldn’t chase her for eating two bowls of rice. Early the next morning, before she could say much, Ye Ling had left, not even taking lunch.
Bai Xue held a grudge in her heart; anyway, since she had eaten a lot yesterday, she considered it eating today’s lunch too. But her daughter’s attitude made her feel uncomfortable. During dinner, she brought it up again, and Ye Ling retorted with a few words, leaving Bai Xue unable to talk to her daughter and filled with anger.
After Ye Ling left the house, Bai Xue couldn’t help nagging, and Ye Qian couldn’t help but complain unhappily about the situation at ho. Bai Xue, unable to hold back, said sothing more harshly, causing her daughter to angrily go into her room without finishing her al.
Seeing her daughter angry made Bai Xue regretful and she also blad her elder daughter. After clearing the table, she went out, specially taking the only canning jar at ho to buy a can of food, only to find her younger daughter missing upon her return, causing panic, and then she ran into her elder daughter.
She impatiently wanted to reach out and push her away when she thought of sothing, placing her hand down, but the more she thought about it, the more irritable she beca. Ye Ling calmly said, "Mom can’t find her, and I don’t know anyone in the courtyard to know where to look."
Anyone could die, Ye Qian wouldn’t, so Ye Ling wasn’t worried at all.
And as for Ye Qian speaking well for her, forget it. She didn’t need to guess to know Ye Qian was playing the role of Bai Lianhua, being a good person and making their mother like her even less.
Bai Xue glared angrily, "Fine, if you can’t find her, go ho and wait. When she cos back, have her stay ho and wait for ."
Giving her elder daughter a displeased glance, she then went into the courtyard to search.
Ye Ling was long used to her mother’s angry attitude upon seeing her and wasn’t bothered, going directly ho. She saw the house was clean, not seeming like anything happened, making her even more puzzled.
Bai Xue was searching everywhere in the courtyard for her daughter, while Liu Rui and Ye Qian, with snacks in hand, were under the back window of the small warehouse, looking at the back window. Liu Rui was anxious.
Liu Rui had been worried about her brother, having cried several tis at ho. Her father wouldn’t relent. After enduring a day, as soon as her father went to the company, she imdiately went to find Ye Qian after school, bringing snacks to secretly deliver them.
Ye Qian had been hurriedly pulled by Liu Rui and didn’t have ti to tell her mother, not knowing that her mother mistakenly thought she was born, causing her to worry and search everywhere.
Ye Qian glanced around, "There’s a stone here, step on it and see if we can get up."
The stone was the sa one Ye Ling used yesterday.
Liu Rui looked happy, but her smile quickly twisted with concern; she had never climbed that high, and this was her first ti sneaking over to deliver sothing.
Seeing her concern, Ye Qian stepped onto the stone, her face just level with the back window ledge, smiling as she looked down at Liu Rui, "Okay, I’ll knock on the window to see if they can open it."
With the problem solved, Liu Rui nodded happily. Ye Qian then turned back and knocked on the window, just about to say sothing when the window opened to reveal Zhao Guodong’s smiling face.
Seeing it wasn’t Ye Ling, but Ye Qian, Zhao Guodong was surprised, speaking kindly, "How co it’s you?"
Unlike Song i, who had such a nasty attitude, Ye Qian was petite and charming, gentle and sweet.
Ye Qian was also embarrassed, shyly biting her lip, "Seeing that you all are in good spirits is great."
Liu Rui had brought the snacks, and Ye Qian couldn’t claim them as hers, feeling awkward seeing Zhao Guodong and wondering how to call Liu Zhiyuan over to talk.
Luckily, Liu Rui outside the warehouse asked about her brother, providing Ye Qian with a reason. She sheepishly smiled at Zhao Guodong, who nodded before jumping down to call Liu Zhiyuan.
Hearing he was being addressed, Liu Zhiyuan didn’t dawdle, walking straight over and standing on a chair. Seeing him, Ye Qian directly stated the truth, "Xiao Rui is worried about you; she brought you so snacks. Brother Zhiyuan, are you okay?"
Ye Qian’s voice was soft, her eyes like butterflies poised to take flight under the night sky, needing just a loud noise to scare them away.
Liu Zhiyuan took the snacks, thanked her, "Tell Xiao Rui not to worry. I’ll be out in two days."
Ye Qian obediently nodded, and Liu Zhiyuan reminded them to return early before closing the window. Ye Qian snapped out of the trance induced by Liu Zhiyuan’s spring breeze-like smile, feeling a warmth in her face as she jumped down from the stone.
Liu Rui didn’t notice this, anxiously pulling on her, "How’s my brother?"
"Brother Zhiyuan is in good spirits. Now that the snacks are delivered, you can rest easy."
Liu Rui nodded happily, "Qianqian, I truly can’t thank you enough. Otherwise, I wouldn’t know who to turn to."
"You’re welco. This whole thing started because of my family. I didn’t know how to make it up before, so I’m glad I could do this. It makes feel a bit better."
"It’s not your family’s fault; it’s all Zhao Guodong’s fault." A rare expression of anger appeared on Liu Rui’s innocent face.
Ye Qian comforted her with a few words. The two, holding hands in close friendship, were just about to leave the back of the warehouse when a figure blocked their path. Seeing the person ahead, Liu Rui fearfully shrank behind Ye Qian.
Ye Qian pressed her lips, inwardly annoyed that Liu Rui would hide at the first sign of trouble. She knew that if she pushed Liu Rui out now, Liu Rui would hold a grudge against her, so she had to bear the bla herself.
"Which family do you belong to? I’ll take you ho." This person was the sa guard who caught Ye Ling yesterday.
Ye Qian looked pitifully at the guard, "We know we were wrong. Can we just let this one slide?"
The guards in the courtyard were mostly young, and Ye Qian had never taken them seriously, though she maintained her usual gentle deanor, her tone didn’t soften much. (To be continued.
