Chapter 734: Chapter 727: Seeking a Sense of Presence (Part 1)
The hardest thing for Qi Hui to accept was that Leng Liewei went to Leng Yichenâs house in the evening without taking her, but instead let her go home by herself. Was she really that unpresentable? Didnât she even have the qualification to have a meal at Leng Yichenâs house?
Qi Hui irritatedly threw down her phone, her charming eyes rolled around, and she gently placed a hand on her belly, then started to sneer.
Leng Liewei, if you wonât let me go, Iâll just have to go!
Qi Hui knew that if she wanted to establish herself in the Leng Family, she must have a sense of presence. She couldnât live in the Leng Family so obscurely.
Now things are different from before. Even if not for herself, she must do it for...
A gentle smile emerged on Qi Huiâs face, then it turned somber again.
In the future, her path must be smooth, and no one can stop her!
At this moment, Bai Yiran was holding Xiao Xi while watching Xiao Lang build with LEGO blocks.
Xiao Lang was a very clever child. He could remember the gist of anything just by seeing it once, and after seeing it twice, he could almost recite it by heart. Moreover, he had a patience and focus that was uncommon at his age.
Xiao Xiâs eyes were fixed on her brother. Although she didnât understand what her brother was building, she watched with keen interest, babbling in a language only she understood.
Watching the two children, Bai Yiran just felt that she was already very happy. Though she had never given up during those seemingly endless days under Wu Chengzu and Yao Zhiqingâs hold, there were moments of despair.
Every night, she was afraid to sleep too deeply, as even her dreams were nightmares, often waking up with a face full of tears.
"What are you daydreaming about?" Leng Yichen walked over from the study and flicked Bai Yiranâs forehead.
Bai Yiran rubbed her forehead and gave him a sidelong glance, "Done with the video call with Wang Wei?"
"Yes." Leng Yichen sat down beside Bai Yiran, wrapped an arm around her and pulled her into his arms, watching Xiao Lang play with LEGO together with her, "This kid really has patience, focus, and a clear mind. He can be well-nurtured in the future."
Bai Yiran snuggled in Leng Yichenâs arms, quietly listening to the strong heartbeat of the man, filled with happiness.
"Is it about Huamei International? Are you going back to work?" Bai Yiranâs small hand unconsciously tightened around Leng Yichenâs arm.
Leng Yichen soothingly stroked her head, "Let the old man keep an eye for a few more days. According to Wang Wei, the old man is quite enthusiastic lately, so I might as well take this opportunity to give myself a break and spend some quality time with you."
Hearing that Leng Yichen wouldnât be returning to work immediately, Bai Yiran slightly relaxed her grip, but she still sounded a bit hesitant, "But, wonât that have some impact on you?"
"No, donât worry." Leng Yichen gently pecked Bai Yiranâs lips.
In fact, Leng Yichen already knew through Wang Wei that Leng Liewei had reinstated Qi Hui to the company and even put her in the position of Global Marketing Director. He wasnât entirely at ease with this but couldnât immediately expel Qi Hui, as Leng Liewei had stepped in to support him in a critical moment, and he, as a son, owed him that courtesy.
However, this was something he didnât plan to tell Bai Yiran. For one, it wasnât necessary, and for another, it was a bit vexing to hear.
"Ah! Ya!" came the soft voice of Xiao Xi.
In his arms, Xiao Xi began to make noises, prompting the couple to quickly look down. It seemed the child no longer wanted to stay in Bai Yiranâs arms, as her little hands continuously reached out towards Xiao Lang on the ground.
"Do you want to play with your brother?"
