Chapter 2094: Don’t Worry
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Qingqiu, he thinks I’m taking you away.”
Ye Qingqiu’s eyelashes fluttered.
Ye Zhenzhen took a deep breath and said, “I opened the door for him yesterday on purpose to guide him and Linlin to leave with me. He must be afraid.”
Ye Qingqiu’s slender fingers moved slightly as she sat by the car door. Her gaze landed on the rearview mirror as Li Tingshen’s car followed behind.
That was why he looked so upset when he entered last night.!!
He wanted to ask her if it was true.
Was he afraid that she would leave with Linlin, so he guarded them at the door?
She closed her eyes slowly.
The tickets for the three of them had been bought in advance. Li Tingshen followed closely behind them, but he was stopped outside because there were no tickets.
There was a long queue at the ticketing window.
“Mommy, Daddy doesn’t have a ticket. What should we do?”
Linlin looked a little anxious.
She had once thought of doing her best to integrate with Linlin.
She spent time with him, painting, playing the piano, taking care of his daily life, catering to his hobbies, doting on him and loving him, but she seemed to be lacking something to fill the gap.
Then, Li Tingshen did it easily.
After all, he was still a boy. Li Tingshen had come over for a meal for the past few days. She didn’t know how a taciturn man could have a common language and play with a two-year-old child. Their relationship was warm and stable.
Ye Qingqiu felt a little upset. She glanced at Li Tingshen and said calmly, “He will think of a way.”
“Then let’s wait for him here.”
Ye Qingqiu pursed her lips and remained silent.
Li Tingshen glanced in their direction and Linlin waved at him. Ye Qingqiu carried Linlin and turned to leave.
Li Tingshen reached out to grab the couple who had just bought the tickets. He glanced at the tickets in the woman’s hand and looked up. His long and narrow eyes swept over, and a cold and powerful aura emanated from his body.
“Ten times. Sell me your ticket.”
The woman was shocked by Li Tingshen’s deep and cold aura. Looking at his exquisite and handsome face, she nodded in a daze. “…Okay.”
Her boyfriend reacted and grabbed his girlfriend’s shoulder. “I…”
“I’ll buy yours too.”
Li Tingshen interrupted him.
The boyfriend was stunned for a moment before the woman reacted. She quickly took the ticket from him and handed it to Li Tingshen.
“For you.”
Li Tingshen took it and transferred the money to them.
“Daddy is awesome! Daddy is here!”
Linlin was very happy. He clapped his hands and looked at Li Tingshen, who was getting closer and closer.
Ye Qingqiu carried Linlin and ran away. She stood on the spot and watched as Li Tingshen walked towards them anxiously.
Linlin leaned towards him and opened his arms for a hug.
Li Tingshen reached out to take him.
Ye Qingqiu’s face darkened, but she still let go of Linlin.
“Daddy, shall we play that first?”
Linlin pointed at the colorful building not far away. Through the transparent glass, one could see the staff in cartoon costumes and colorful children. Most of them were girls.
Li Tingshen nodded. “Okay.”
It was a theme restaurant. The parents accompanied their children to cook.
Linlin chose egg rice from the photo.
The staff gave Li Tingshen, Ye Qingqiu and Linlin three aprons of different sizes.
Looking at their attire, she was curious if they would succeed.
However, in the entire theme restaurant, a family of three was undoubtedly the most eye-catching.
“Egg white rice looks simple, but it’s actually quite difficult. All the best, Daddy and Mommy.”
In fact, Ye Qingqiu didn’t even know how to cook eggs.
Because she only needed the egg yolk, the spoon couldn’t separate the egg yolk.
Linlin watched anxiously from the side. Her patience gradually disappeared and her frown deepened.
Li Tingshen prepared the other ingredients and turned to look at Ye Qingqiu, who was about to throw her chopsticks away. He reached out and poured the mineral water into the pot before reaching out his index finger to nudge Ye Qingqiu’s hand.
Ye Qingqiu looked up at him.
He pursed his lips and squeezed the bottle. The mouth of the bottle was facing the egg yolk. When he let go, the egg yolk ran into the bottle.
“Wow!”
Linlin’s dark eyes were filled with surprise.
The stars in the sky were hidden in his eyes.
Ye Qingqiu was also a little surprised, but it was only for a moment.
After that, it was Li Tingshen’s turn to beat the eggs himself. Then, he made a few swipes in the eggshell and drained all the egg white.
Ye Qingqiu was speechless.
Linlin exclaimed, “Wow!”
Ye Qingqiu pursed her lips and turned to open the stove in front of her. She poured the egg liquid into the stove.
She didn’t know how to flip it. By the time she flipped it over, the egg was already mushy and rotten.
Linlin looked at the failed product quietly and looked at her awkwardly.
Ye Qingqiu couldn’t accept it, so she poured a bowl of rice.
An egg fried rice was served.
Linlin was speechless.
Laughter sounded from the surroundings. Ye Qingqiu looked up and frowned slightly.
There was already a circle of young mothers in front of their stove.
His gaze landed on her. Although there was a smile on his face, Ye Qingqiu felt that it was an eyesore.
“Baby looks like Daddy.”
“Daddy is so handsome and he can cook. I’m so impressed.”
“That’s right, that’s right. What a pity…”
Ye Qingqiu raised her eyebrows. What a pity.
She turned to look at Li Tingshen. The egg rice in his pot had already started to wrap up.
The real thing was almost identical to the picture.
Ye Qingqiu was speechless.
When he succeeded in the last step, there was a round of applause.
Li Tingshen didn’t move his eyes. He turned to look at Ye Qingqiu and pushed the bowl of rice in front of her.
“Try it?”
Linlin, who was standing in the middle on a small stool, also clapped his hands happily. Then, he watched helplessly as the plate of fried rice slid past him and reached his mother.
Linlin was speechless.
She pouted and looked at the plate of rice with egg. She twirled her fingers and saw the aggrieved look in her mother’s eyes.
“Daddy only thinks of Mommy. Baby is unhappy.”
“Poor thing, can I bring you to play with your sister?”
“My family is pretty too!”
In an instant, a chubby little girl appeared in the arms of the children.
Linlin was at a loss.
That wasn’t his intention!
Ye Qingqiu lowered her gaze to look at Linlin, who only had her head exposed. Her lips twitched.
Linlin pushed the rice cooked by Ye Qingqiu to Li Tingshen.
“Daddy, eat.”
Then, she tugged at Ye Qingqiu’s sleeve and pointed at the plate of rice. “Mommy, try it.”
Ye Qingqiu paused and picked up a spoon to eat.
Linlin looked hopeful. “How is it?”
“Yes.” Ye Qingqiu nodded. “It’s delicious.”
As she spoke, she dug a mouthful for Linlin.
Li Tingshen smiled and looked down at the egg fried rice.
She picked it up and ate it.
He hadn’t had breakfast that morning.
Ye Qingqiu saw his actions from the corner of her eye and her expression became more focused as she fed Lin Lin the rice.
Lin Lin and Ye Qingqiu finished their meal.
Li Tingshen finished the egg fried rice alone.
When the three of them went out, Ye Lixun was drinking coffee in an outdoor cafe.
Ye Qingqiu walked over and said, “How is this playing? Eating and drinking coffee outside is worse than here?”
Ye Lixun raised an eyebrow. “Aren’t we here to eat and play?”
Ye Qingqiu pursed her lips. “It’s mainly for fun.”
“You sound like you’re very experienced.”
Ye Qingqiu thought for a while and said, “I seem to have gone to the amusement park with someone.”
Ye Lixun looked at Li Tingshen. “Him?”
Ye Qingqiu shook her head. “No.”
Li Tingshen’s face darkened.
Ye Lixun took in his expression and her eyebrows twitched.
Ye Qingqiu’s stamina had never been good. Even though Linlin was in Li Tingshen’s arms, she felt tired after walking for a while.
Since Linlin was going to race, Ye Qingqiu and Ye Lixun naturally wouldn’t go. Anyway, there was Li Tingshen.
This kind of project, which only boys liked, was directly pushed to Li Tingshen.
Who asked him to follow?
However, Li Tingshen was dressed in a suit and leather shoes. He couldn’t bring himself to come here.
Not long after, Linlin ran over and stuffed Li Tingshen’s suit jacket into Ye Qingqiu’s hands.
“Mommy, help me carry Daddy’s clothes. It’s not convenient for him to play with me.”
There was no room for Ye Qingqiu to reject.
Moreover, there was no need for her to fuss over such matters.
After having enough fun, Li Tingshen carried Linlin to the entertainment area.
“Go down and play by yourself. Daddy will sit here and watch you.”
Li Tingshen sat on the bench and looked at him, his voice low and gentle.
Linlin shook her head and crawled to his side before sitting down.
A pair of calves rested on the edge of the bench. She was still young and her calves were not long at all.
He held a ball that he had just fished out of the pool and played with it for a while.
“Daddy, Mommy is very good.”
Li Tingshen turned to look at him and paused for two seconds. His voice was hoarse.
“I know.”
“Mom told me that I’m like the other children. I have parents who love me very much. From the moment I was born into this world, your identities have been confirmed. No one can deny or deny it. No one has the right to say that you’re not my parents. I’m your child. Mom said that you all love me very much, so I have to love you all the same.”
Li Tingshen’s head, which was originally dizzy, seemed to be pounding heavily.
“Actually, I can think of many things. You and Mom don’t live together like other children’s parents. I think there must be a reason. But since Mom has said that, if I’m still very distant from you, Mom will definitely not be happy.”
“Sometimes, I don’t know what to do either, but I feel that Mom seems to be as conflicted as me.”
Li Tingshen paused. “Conflict?”
Linlin nodded and said, “That’s right. I think Mommy shouldn’t hate you, but I think she should… I don’t think Mommy is the kind of person who will allow someone she hates to appear frequently around her just because she loves me. Although you’re my father, it’s just an identity. Not all fathers in the world will be by my side. I’m not an exception.”
Li Tingshen paused and slowly lowered his hand.
After a long while, he said slowly, “Yes… she’s indeed not.”
“Sigh…” Linlin sighed, looking deeply distressed.
Li Tingshen turned his head and stared at the small head for a long time before reaching out to pat the back of his head gently. Linlin’s head fell forward.
“What exactly do you know?”
Linlin raised her hand to cover her head and frowned as she looked up at him. “Do you believe that you can complain to Mommy?”
Li Tingshen was speechless.
Was he a fake son?
After the conversation ended, Li Tingshen brought Linlin to other events.
In the evening, Linlin, who was high, finally felt tired.
Coming out of the aquarium, Ye Qingqiu and Ye Lixun followed behind, each holding a cup of coffee.
The two women didn’t do anything all day. They walked and stopped. If they could sit, they wouldn’t stand. If there was food, they wouldn’t miss it.
However, his spirit was clearly exhausted.
Ye Lixun took a sip of coffee and looked at the father and son in front of her. “Luckily, he’s here. If I had known that coming to the amusement park was so tiring, I wouldn’t have suggested this.”
Ye Qingqiu replied, “I won’t do it again.”
She was someone who couldn’t even go to the mall.
She had actually wandered around the amusement park for a day.
Linlin leaned on Li Tingshen’s shoulder and waved at them excitedly. Ye Qingqiu waved and smiled at him.
“Mommy, I forgot to call you Sister Wanwan this time. Can we bring her along next time?”
Ye Qingqiu: “…Okay.”
Ye Lixun laughed gloatingly.
Linlin grinned happily and leaned on Li Tingshen’s shoulder. He stared at Ye Qingqiu for a while before retracting his gaze and burying his face in Li Tingshen’s neck.
“Mmm…”
He looked up again and touched his face.
Then, she looked at Li Tingshen and said, “Daddy, your neck is so hot.”
Linlin was in his arms, but his childish voice was still muffled. Hun Dun could vaguely hear what he was saying, but he still had to chew slowly for two seconds.
He turned to look at him, his voice low and hoarse.
“It’s hot.”
After a pause, he said, “You too. You’re sweating. Go back and get Mommy to bathe you quickly.”
“Okay.”
After leaving the amusement park, Li Tingshen placed Linlin in their car.
Then, she looked at Ye Qingqiu and asked softly, “Have you informed your family that dinner is ready?”
Ye Qingqiu nodded. “Yes.”
Li Tingshen nodded and looked at her quietly.
Seeing that he didn’t intend to speak, Ye Qingqiu got into the car.
Li Tingshen drove behind their car.
Ye Lixun retracted her gaze from the rearview mirror and frowned slightly. “I think there’s something wrong with him.”
Ye Qingqiu frowned slightly. She lowered her head and found a piece of bread from her bag before handing it to Linlin.
She said calmly, “I just didn’t have the cheek to ask for a free meal…”
“It’s not that. I said his condition…”
“It’s normal to be tired after playing with Linlin for the entire day.”
Linlin took the cake that had been torn open and took a bite. He seemed to have remembered something and said,
“I just felt that Daddy’s neck is burning. Is he sick?”
Ye Qingqiu suddenly paused. The first thing that came to her mind was the scene of him standing outside Qingqiu Mansion for the entire night.
A fever wasn’t impossible.
But he had played with Linlin today.
Could it be…
She looked at the rearview mirror. The car was already on the highway, and she couldn’t see the person inside.
Just as she was about to retract her gaze, a car overtook Li Tingshen’s car.
Li Tingshen’s reaction seemed to be a second slower, but he didn’t slow down.
The speed of the car on the highway was not low. Just as he was about to hit the car in front of him, he subconsciously turned the steering wheel with his left hand.
Hence, she wiped the headlights of the car on her left.
Both parties stopped their cars.
It was too late for the car behind to brake, so it crashed into the car.
After five to six cars, the situation stabilized.
Ye Qingqiu was stunned.
Before she could stop the car, the driver had already stopped the car.
Because of the car accident, no car followed them. Ye Qingqiu opened the car door with trembling fingers and ran back.
Li Tingshen’s car had already been knocked to the side by the car behind him. Its position had been pushed forward by the rear-end collision several times, and the left rear door had already caved in.
Ye Qingqiu’s face turned pale.
Her gaze was fixed on the driver’s seat.
On the left was the main driver.
He had just leaned to the left.
The driver who had caught up with them hurried over to check on the situation.
There was no way to open the door on the left. He went to the passenger seat and opened the door. Li Tingshen’s head was bleeding, but he was still conscious. In the chaos, he looked up and saw Ye Qingqiu standing there with a pale face, staring at him in a daze.
He paused and quickly unbuckled his seatbelt.
“CEO Li, over here.”
Ye Qingqiu’s chauffeur called out to him. He turned to look at the door and paused before getting out of the car.
She took out a tissue to wipe the blood off her forehead before walking towards Ye Qingqiu.
“Don’t worry, I’m fine.”
There was still blood on his head that had not been wiped clean, and fresh blood was still dripping from his head.
Ye Qingqiu pursed her lips tightly as her entire body trembled imperceptibly.
“Have you been living more and more? What are you thinking when you step on the brakes?”
Li Tingshen stood rooted to the ground with his lips pursed. After a long while, he spat out two words.
“Sorry…”
Ye Qingqiu’s gaze followed the blood flowing down his face and watched as it fell from his chin.
Suddenly, she sneered.
