Chapter 856: Too Many Times

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation | Editor. Dragon Boat Translation

Qin Mucheng carried the little girl with one hand and unzipped his down jacket with the other. Then, he wrapped Tangtang inside his down jacket.

Qin Mucheng was very thin, and he was wearing a loosedown jacket.

Therefore, after stuffing Tangtang into the down jacket, the zipper could still

be pulled up.

“How is it? Is it warm?” Qin Mucheng asked with a smile.

Tangtang was amused and giggled. “It’s warm. It’s so fun…

Ji Yuanyuan watched from the side and suddenly felt envious of her daughter.

Tangtang was so good. She had a childhood where so many people loved her. When she grew up, she would definitely be very happy when she recalled her father when she was young.

Unlike herself, she could only remember the bad things about Ji Jianguo.

When she was young, she often saw other fathers hide their children in their

clothes.

Just like Qin Mucheng and Tangtang.

She had never been treated like this before.

Later on, although she had Zhang Kun, her stepfather, who treated her like his

own daughter.

However, she was already seven or eight years old at that time. She was a big child.

Zhang Kun doted on her, but in order to avoid suspicion, he could not be too

close to her.

Qin Mucheng sensed Ji Yuanyuan’s disappointment and deliberately turned around so that Tangtang would face Ji Yuanyuan.

“Look at Mommy. Why is she unhappy?”

“Mommy, are you unhappy?” Tangtang rolled her big eyes.

“No, I’m very happy.” Ji Yuanyuan quickly forced a smile.

Tangtang looked up at Qin Mucheng.

That expression seemed to be questioning Qin Mucheng as to why he had lied

to her.

Qin Mucheng reached out and pressed Tangtang’s head on his shoulder.

“What’s wrong?” he asked Ji Yuanyuan in a low voice.

Ji Yuanyuan’s lips twitched. “It’s nothing. I just suddenly remembered my

childhood.”

“You’ve been thinking about your childhood too many times recently.” Qin

Mucheng said.

Ji Yuanyuan raised her hand and adjusted Tangtang’s hat. “I used to live here when I was young. I’m sure there are memories everywhere.”

Qin Mucheng did not say anything else. He carried Tangtang and walked around the neighborhood, telling her about their childhood memories.

“Did Daddy and Mommy know each other when they were very young?

Tangtang asked curiously as she listened.

Qin Mucheng’s expression was gentle. “Yes, when I met your mother, she was only a few years older than you. Your mother was as beautiful as you when she was young.”

Tangtang reached out shyly and touched her little face.

This action made Ji Yuanyuan and Qin Mucheng laugh uncontrollably.

After staying in the neighborhood for a while, Qin Mucheng brought the mother and daughter back to the villa.

The cleaners had not finished cleaning.

Before Qin Mucheng went to the supermarket, he had already contacted the property management and transferred the money to them, asking them to turn on the heater in the house.

It had only been more than an hour, and the room had just started to heat up.

However, it was much warmer than outside.

Qin Mucheng unzipped his jacket and let Tangtang out.

Qin Mucheng was about to speak when the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

He signaled Ji Yuanyuan with his eyes.

Ji Yuanyuan took his phone out of his pocket.

Ji Yuanyuan’s hands trembled when he opened it.

It was Qin Haowen.

She lifted her head to look at Qin Mucheng with a nervous expression.

Qin Mucheng’s expression was also a little serious.

Qin Haowen was usually quite easy to talk to.

However, Tangtang was his bottom line.

At the thought of this, Qin Mucheng placed Tangtang in Ji Yuanyuan’s hands

and picked up the phone.

“What’s wrong with you? I asked you to go to take care of Tangtang. You know that Yuanyuan has to take care of your grandmother, but why are you still so unconcerned? How uncomfortable would it be for such a young child to have her stomach pumped? If your mother and I were as careless as you, would you have grown up safely?”

The call connected. Before Qin Mucheng could say anything, Qin Haowen was already scolding him.

“Dad, I…”

“No need to explain. Take good care of Tangtang for the rest of the day. If anything happens to her, you don’t have to come back.

Qin Mucheng sighed helplessly.

“Why don’t I explain it to Dad?” Ji Yuanyuan asked softly.

She really did not blame Qin Mucheng for what happened today. It was her

fault.

Qin Mucheng was guarding at the hospital. How could he go back to take care

of Tangtang?

Qin Mucheng shook his head, and his gaze froze.

He covered the microphone and ignored Qin Haowen and Cheng Shuqin’s nagging. He moved closer to Tangtang’s ear and said, “Grandpa is scolding Daddy. Tell Grandpa that you don’t feel bad at all, okay?”

Tangtang widened her eyes and nodded thoughtfully.

Qin Mucheng put his phone on speaker mode. Qin Haowen’s voice rang out in the villa. “Don’t think that you can relax just because there are many people. Children at this age are curious about everything. You have to…”

“Grandpa!” Under Qin Mucheng’s gesture, Tangtang spoke crisply.

Qin Haowen was speechless. “It’s Tangtang.”

“Grandpa, I don’t feel bad at all. Really.” Tangtang followed Qin Mucheng’s instructions.

Qin Haowen was silent for a few seconds before he asked, “Did Daddy ask you

to tell Grandpa that?”

The little fellow was very smart. She did not answer Qin Haowen’s question and instead looked up at Qin Mucheng.

Qin Mucheng quickly shook his head.

“Daddy didn’t teach me,” Tangtang said. “Tangtang wanted to say it herself.” “Is Tangtang happy over there?” Qin Haowen chuckled. “Did you eat properly?” Qin Mucheng heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that.

He turned off the hands-free mode and put the phone to Tangtang’s ear.

“Speak with Grandpa like this,” he instructed.

The phone was a little big, so Tangtang had to use both her hands to hold it. Coincidentally, the cleaning company came down from the second floor.

The villa had already been tidied up.

The bedding from the supermarket had already been laid out.

After sending off the cleaning team, Tangtang’s call with Qin Haowen ended. “Are you sleepy?” Qin Mucheng asked softly when he saw Tangtang’s listless expression. “Do you want to sleep for a while?”

Tangtang drooped her eyelids and sighed like a little adult. Then, she hummed. “Take her upstairs to sleep for a while. I’ve ordered some food. It’ll be sent over later.” Qin Mucheng reminded her gently.

Ji Yuanyuan raised her hand and looked at his watch. “It’s already past four in the afternoon. That’s fast.”

Recalling that she had not eaten lunch, she suddenly felt hungry.

She nodded and carried Tangtang upstairs.

The food arrived quickly, and the room gradually warmed up.

Qin Mucheng opened the lunchboxes and went upstairs to call Ji Yuanyuan for dinner.

He would come down to eat after Ji Yuanyuan finished eating.

Tangtang was sleeping soundly and did not notice anything.

Tangtang hadn’t eaten anything since noon. In addition, she had had her stomach pumped in the afternoon, so she would definitely make a scene in the middle of the night.

Therefore, Ji Yuanyuan called Li Xu and told her that they would not be going over for the night..
