Hua Hua shook his head and suddenly laughed, "Iām with mom, Iām not scared, Mom, Hua Hua has this, look, isnāt it very bright? Sister Xingxing said, if Iām scared, just look at this and I wonāt be afraid anymore."
When Ye Qing heard the name Xingxing, she frowned, "Lin Wanās daughter gave it to you?"
"Yes, Xing... She said this Shiniliangliang is very beautiful, it can glow in the dark, and thereās no fear with light." Hua Hua realized Mom didnāt like Xingxing and her mom anymore, so his voice became much smaller than before.
"From now on, donāt talk to them anymore, do you understand? They always bully mom."
"Really?" Hua Hua believed too easily; Xingxing was very nice to him.
"Yes, anyway, donāt mention her again, understand?"
"Oh..." Hua Hua replied reluctantly.
"And in the future, you donāt need the things she gives, and certainly shouldnāt treat them like treasures. These are all lies." Ye Qing said, reaching out her hand to Hua Hua to take the Shiniliangliang, "Give it to me."
Hua Hua felt reluctant, but seeing Mom unhappy, he handed over the Shiniliangliang, still trying to argue, "Mom, itās just a piece of glass shard."
"Hmph. That makes it even more necessary to get rid of it." Ye Qing said with a cold face, about to throw it away.
But just at the last moment, Ye Qing was caught by how it shined and took a proper look at it.
The more she looked, the more she felt something was off. This glass was very special. Ye Qing held it and looked at it for a long time, and suddenly realized that she had seen something similar at the port last year.
That time she had just signed a big contract, was in a good mood, and was shopping in a nearby mall, where one of the counters had something very similar - a diamond.
"Hua Hua, tell mom the truth, where did this come from?"
"Mom, Hua Hua didnāt lie, it was given by Xingxing, I didnāt steal it."
"Mom knows you didnāt steal it, Iām asking where Xingxing got it from?"
"She said she found it at home, she really liked it, and later... gave it to me." That day, he was crying secretly by himself, and Sister Xingxing saw him and made him happy by giving it to him.
"Found it? What home?"
"Here, of course." Hua Hua didnāt understand why mom was asking this, he thought mom liked it too. "Mom, do you like it too?"
"Yes, mom misunderstood you, on a closer look, itās really beautiful. Did Xingxing say which room or corner she found it in?"
Hua Hua shook his head, "Sister Xingxing didnāt say, but if mom likes it, Iāll save it for mom if I find more, okay?"
"Hua Hua is such a good boy, letās collect them secretly, okay? So no one sees and takes them from us. Let mom keep this safe for you, alright?"
"Okay." As long as it wasnāt thrown away, he could ask for it back when mom didnāt like it anymore. Sister Xingxing said not to lose it.
Ye Qingās expression flashed, and she smiled a silent smile. Whether it is what she guessed, she would find out in a few days when she takes it to someone to check.
Unexpectedly, the Mei Family had such an item. Whose could it possibly be? Letting Lin Wanās daughter pick it up.
Lin Wan probably didnāt know either, her daughter might have picked up a treasure and thought it was just a glass shard.
This kind of thing is likely Old Mrs. Meiās, having lived so long, their home must have hidden many treasures.
She remembered Mei Langchi saying that his grandmother was a lady from a wealthy family. "Itās cold at night," Ye Qing said, glancing towards Old Mrs. Mei, then gently picking up Hua Hua and sitting on the sofa.
"Be quiet, mom is going to get you a blanket."
Hua Hua nodded obediently, watching Ye Qing quietly go upstairs and then come down with a blanket.
"Letās sleep on the living room sofa tonight, mom will be with you."
"Okay," for Hua Hua, it didnāt matter where he slept, as long as mom was with him.
Just as Ye Qing had lulled the child to sleep, Mei Langchi drove back.
Ye Qing quickly knelt properly.
When Mei Langchi came in, he was startled by a shadow beside the ancestorās tablet, and only realized it was Ye Qing after turning on the light.
At this moment, Ye Qing had already brought tears to her eyes, looking pitifully at Mei Langchi.
"Langchi, can you help me plead with grandma, I know I was wrong."
Mei Langchi gave her a cold glance and said, "I didnāt see where you knew you were wrong. Since grandma wants you to kneel, then kneel, you wonāt suffer any loss."
With that, he didnāt even look at her and turned to go upstairs, but when he passed the living room and saw Hua Hua on the sofa, his eyes narrowed.
