Ye Peicheng nodded then stood, first picking up Luo Luo.
Qiao Moyu notified the boss of the restaurant, and, with the other party’s fervent thanks, left the shop.
On the way back, the atmosphere was not as light and happy as before.
Ye Peicheng looked to the backseat at Qiao Moyu and clearly understood that if he hadn’t taken the initiative, he wouldn’t know how long he would have to wait to receive an answer!
They finally arrived at Qiao Moyu’s neighborhood. She hugged Luo Luo and got off the car, and faced Ye Peicheng: “Thank you Senior Brother for sending us home!”
Who knew, Ye Peicheng also followed her off the car. He took Luo Luo from Qiao Moyu’s arms, putting him on his shoulder instead.
The little guy laughed after getting picked up and cheerfully clapped his hands. The atmosphere immediately eased up.
Ye Peicheng followed Qiao Moyu into her neighborhood, and continued following all the way until they reached the elevator in her residential complex. Only then did he put Luo Luo down. With warmth in his eyes as he looked at Qiao Moyu, he said: “Little Moyu, I wait for your reply.”
Hey, it’s clearly him who was putting forth the request. How come his attitude was like forcibly making someone buy or sell something?!
Qiao Moyu nodded her head in a perfunctory manner. Just in time, the elevator dinged. She held onto Luo Luo’s hand and led him into the elevator while waving at Ye Peicheng: “Bye Senior Brother!”
When she got home, Qiao Moyu cast all of the worrisome matters to the back of her mind.
She absolutely cannot agree to Ye Peicheng. Anyways, if she can drag it out, then she will.
Since before, she had always been thinking about how to find Luo Luo’s father, yet she still hadn’t found any prospects of a solution. If she does find him, then she will first see whether or not he is suitable. If he is not, then she will just raise the child by herself.
After all, on TV, there are always situations of step mother or step fathers being mean to the children. If there are no blood ties, then she will have no confidence in them. So, regarding the matter of feelings, it’s best to first put it aside.
In the evening, Qiao Moyu and Luo Luo played with toys for a while. The child wanted to sleep early, so she carried Luo Luo to go take a shower.
Maybe because he was too tired from his afternoon activities, the little guy fell asleep very quickly after washing up and going to bed. It didn’t take long before snoring sounds were heard from him.
After Qiao Moyu tiptoed from the bedroom, the nanny said: “Miss Qiao, your phone rang quite a few times just now.”
Qiao Moyu gave a sound of acknowledgement before reaching out her hand to pick up the phone. She discovered that it was Xing Yichen who had called.
She thought about what she should do. In the end, ‘Brother Yichen’ in her contacts got changed to ‘Xing Slag’.
Just as she was about to turn off her phone, it rang once again. Qiao Moyu hesitated for a few seconds, then picked up: “Is there anything going on?”
Xing Yichen’s voice travelled out from the speaker, his tone even and peaceful: “Moyu, I am at the entrance of your house.”
Qiao Moyu was very shocked. She hurriedly walked over to the peep hole on the door and looked through it. Sure enough, there was a man fully dressed in a Western style suit standing in the corridor, looking as if he was about to attend some banquet. If that wasn’t Xing Yichen, who else could it be?
Worried that because she hadn’t opened the door, the person would start to knock on it and thereby wake up Luo Luo, Qiao Moyu replied, albeit not very willingly: “Wait a moment for me.”
She returned to the bedroom and changed out of her pajamas into a dress. She specifically wore a pair of tall and skinny heels to use to step on people later.
The door next to him opened, and Xing Yichen turned around to look. His eyes immediately lit up.
