Chapter 572: Chapter 572: The thought is so painful, it’s almost unbearable……_1
“Su Hongxing, come into my office with me,” Ye Qilan said, getting frustrated as things weren’t going as he expected.
If such a cute child can’t move Su Hongxing, should she even be sent then?
Even he had been charmed by Little Pudding, but Su Hongxing had such a bland reaction.
“I have a lot of work to do, no time!” Su Hongxing turned away from Little Pudding and headed for her desk.
“Su Hongxing, I need you for work. You’d better come in!” Ye Qilan gave Su Hongxing a warning look with a rather stern tone.
“Daddy, you can’t be mean to Miao Miao, that’s wrong,” Little Pudding suddenly piped up.
She wanted Miao Miao to hold her, but didn’t dare to ask, as Miao Miao seemed very stern.
Looking at Little Pudding’s pitiful eyes, Su Hongxing couldn’t bear it. Normally, how could she ever harshly scold this child? But this time, it was really out of line. At such a young age, daring to run away from home.
Fortunately, it was Fu Yan who took her away. What if she had been kidnapped by human traffickers? What then?
“Baby, are you calling her Miao Miao?” Fu Yan suddenly interjected asked.
Little Pudding had called out ‘Miao Miao’ as soon as she got off the plane last night. Why was she also calling Su Hongxing ‘Miao Miao’?
At this point, Su Hongxing also began to see a pattern. If Ye Qilan and Fu Yan knew that this was her daughter, they wouldn’t react this way, would they?
In her desperation, she snatched the baby from Ye Qilan’s arms. “I have a connection with this child. Let’s chat for a while first.”
Little Pudding was suddenly taken by Su Hongxing and broke out into a face full of laughter, taking the opportunity to smear a round of saliva on Su Hongxing’s face.
Su Hongxing carried the child and ran into the bathroom. Making sure no one was following, she asked, “How did you meet Uncle Fu? Why would you come to Taicheng with him?”
“Daddy said he was taking me to Taicheng, where Miao Miao is, so I came.” Little Pudding logically explained and tried to burrow into Su Hongxing’s arms for comfort.
Su Hongxing swiftly pushed away the clingy child, her eyes reddening with impatience. “Aren’t you afraid of encountering human traffickers? What has mommy been teaching you about not talking to strangers?”
“Daddy is not a stranger. I saw him on TV the day before yesterday and knew that he is from Taicheng. Following daddy would lead me to Miao Miao.” Little Pudding said as she dove into Su Hongxing’s embrace “Mian Mian really misses Miao Miao, I miss her so much it hurts…”
Su Hongxing felt both moved and amused.
This child spoke so sweetly and eloquently, how could she only be three years old?
Su Hongxing held Little Pudding and checked the bathroom door again to make sure Ye Qilan and Fu Yan hadn’t followed. After a detailed questioning and reiteration on the side, Little Pudding nodded her understanding, though she seemed somewhat confused…
On the other hand, Ye Qilan went into his office, Fu Yan followed him. “Su Hongxing looked rather strange. Fourth Brother, didn’t you see her when you left Qingmu Garden today?”
Ye Qilan turned his gaze back to Fu Yan: “What do you mean?”
“Not long after you left, I also went out of Qingmu Garden and happened to see Su Hongxing hailing a taxi on the road. I was the one who brought her to the company. She looked like she hadn’t slept all night, very haggard.”
Just now, Su Hongxing was suddenly startled and acted so harshly towards the adorable Little Pudding. She claimed to bond with Little Pudding, but her words and behaviors seemed odd and self-contradictory to him.
