Chapter 853: 839, two little treasures crying so heartbreakingly (1) Chapter 853: 839, two little treasures crying so heartbreakingly (1) Seventeen and Nineteen sat on the carpet, watching their parentsâ retreating figures with delicate little faces full of confusion, clearly unaware that their mommy and daddy had left them behind to enjoy a world of their own.
Beside them, Quan Mingxuan looked at the two little treasures staring dumbly at the door and couldnât help but collapse in laughter on the floor. He deliberately scared the two little treasures, âSeventeen, Nineteen, your daddy and mommy donât want you anymore.â
âYou little rascal, what nonsense are you talking?â Grandma Quan slapped his leg and scolded with a laugh.
Seventeen and Nineteen turned their heads and glanced at each other. Their rosy little mouths suddenly puckered, and mist quickly gathered in their eyes.
Seeing this, Rhee thought to himself that this was not good. He hadnât had time to pick them up before âwaah,â the two little treasures cried out at the same time.
âWaah waah waahâŠâ
Nineteen looked towards the direction of the door, with golden teardrops continuously rolling down. His cherubic little face was streaked with tears, evoking sympathy.
Nineteen wants Daddy, Nineteen wants Mommy!
âNineteen, donât cry, okay? Uncle was just joking with you.â Rhee reached out to pick up Nineteen, coaxing him gently with a soft voice.
âSeventeen, let great-grandma give you a hug. Donât cry, donât cry. Daddy and mommy will be back soon. They love Seventeen and Nineteen the most and wonât abandon you,â Grandma Quan comforted Seventeen, trying to attract his attention with a toy.
Grandpa Quan watched the two little treasures cry so sadly and turned to look at Quan Mingxuan, landing an explosive flick on his head.
âYou little troublemaker, look at what youâve done.â
Quan Mingxuan, holding his head, quickly dodged to the side. Hearing the crying of the two little treasures, he was a bit at a loss whether to laugh or cry, âGrandpa, how was I supposed to know they would understand? I was just teasing them.â
These two little treasures are too clever.
âYou think they are as dumb as you?â Grandpa Quan looked at him with a somewhat disdainful expression.
Facing the teasing from his own grandfather, Quan Mingxuan felt it hit him right in the heart.
ââŠâ
Having great-grandchildren and not needing grandchildren anymore, how cold-hearted.
âWhat happened, why are Seventeen and Nineteen crying like this?â Hearing the crying of the two little treasures from upstairs, Quan Yifei hurriedly ran down.
Normally, the two little treasures rarely cried, and even when they did, it was more noise than tears. But now, with their tears falling like large beads, could it be that they fell and hurt themselves somewhere?
âItâs that little rascal Axuanâs doing,â Grandpa Quan complained.
âSecond brother?â Quan Yifei was surprised, turning her head toward Quan Mingxuan, who was nestled on the sofa, with a questioning look in her eyes.
âSecond brother, did you steal their food? Did you bully them?â
At this, Quan Mingxuan almost spat out blood in frustration.
Damn it.
Is my character really that bad?
Stealing a childâs food, she had the nerve to say it.
âI bullied them?â He looked at her irritably and retorted, âThey are more likely to bully me. Itâs Jingwu and Jian Qing.â
âBig brother, sister-in-law?â Quan Yifei glanced around, not finding Jingwu and Jian Qing, âWhere did they go?â
With Seventeen and Nineteen crying so loudly, why werenât they showing up?
âTheyâve gone on their honeymoon,â Quan Mingxuan said.
Quan Yifei immediately understood and looked at the two little treasures with sympathy in her eyes.
No wonder the two little treasures were crying so heartsore; it turns out they were left behind by their parents.
âHow long will they be gone?â
Without their parents, the two little treasures might not get used to it.
Quan Mingxuan shrugged, âThey didnât say, but knowing Jingwuâs nature, he wonât come back for at least half a month.â
Quan Yifei, ââŠâ
Jian Qing and Quan Jingwu had already arrived at the airport ready to board, unaware that the two little treasures were crying so inconsolably.
Both enjoyed quietness, and Quan Jingwu had booked all the seats in first class. Jian Qing looked at her phone, whose screensaver was a photo of the two little ones.
She started to miss the little treasures the moment she stepped out the door.
Suddenly, a large hand took her phone, and a deep voice sounded in her ear, âDonât worry, there are so many people at home to take care of them.â
Jian Qing leaned on him, murmured in agreement, and Quan Jingwu stretched his arm around her, thinking of the two little treasures at home, the corners of his slightly red lips curved up.
âŠ
âWelcome.â
At the entrance, the waiterâs voice was heard.
Bai Jue swung the car keys with one hand, glancing at the restaurant before his gaze landed on the man sitting by the window.
He walked over leisurely, the man was looking at his phone and did not notice his arrival. Bai Jue dropped the car keys and pulled out a chair to sit opposite him.
âYou invite me here and then make me wait, are you not embarrassed?â Jian Luo put away his phone, looking up at the man opposite him.
âThe car ran out of gas on the way.â Bai Jue propped his head up with one hand, saying lazily.
Jian Luo noticed that the clothes Bai Jue was wearing were not the same as yesterdayâs, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, âWhere did you go to mess around last night?â
âWent to drink with Han Yue and the others,â he said.
âWhatâs with that look?â
âYou wouldnât happen to have gone on a date with some woman after drinking, would you?â Jian Luo teased.
Bai Jue saw him staring at his clothes and glared back irritably, âI reek of wine, do you expect me to come here to eat in yesterdayâs clothes?â
Changing his clothes meant he was seeing a woman? It was really driving him mad.
Jian Luo smiled innocently, âWho knows.â
âWhy havenât you scrammed back to Y Country to find Black Jack?â Bai Jue asked.
As Jian Luo browsed the menu, he said, âWhatâs the rush, heâs coming in a few days. Plus, my sister and Quan Jingwu are on their honeymoon, and I need to help take care of the little treasures.â
âOn a honeymoon?â Bai Jue asked in surprise, âThey didnât take the seventeenth with them?â
Jian Luoâs gaze lifted from the menu to roll his eyes at him, âHave you ever seen a couple go on a honeymoon and take their kids with them?â
Especially when that couple was Quan Jingwu and Jian Qing, with his domineering nature, taking kids on a honeymoon was simply out of the question.
Bai Jue thought about Quan Jingwuâs domineering attitude towards Jian Qing and did not object.
âWhy do you care about me going back to Y Country? Why donât you go back to M Country?â Jian Luoâs gaze was teasing as he ribbed him.
âCouldnât it be that you have some unfinished business in Beijing?â
Usually, he would have been traveling all over the world by now, never staying put in Beijing for too long. Staying here for nearly two weeks since returning from the island was not like him at all.
âThereâs nothing much going on in M Country, and besides, you all are in Beijing. Whatâs the point of me going back?â Bai Jue replied indifferently.
Jian Luo chuckled with a meaningful tone, âI donât think thatâs quite it.â
âWhat are you blabbering about? Hurry up and order, Iâm starving.â Bai Jue picked up his glass of water, sipping it and speaking vaguely.
Jian Luo curled his lip slightly and summoned the waiter to place the order.
In no time, the dishes were all served.
âBy the way, arenât you arranging a fashion show for your new collection in March?â Bai Jue asked while eating.
Jian Luo shook his head, âIâve left it to my subordinates to handle.â
âYouâve learned well from your sister to be a hands-off boss,â Bai Jue teased.
