Chapter 982: How About I Pick You Up From School Every Day
Bai Qi felt very gratified. This was good. Fighting, killing, and a bloody life were not suitable for the Leng’s. It was better for them to become proper businessmen.
“Oh right, Ah Chen, how is Xiaotao? Xiaotao got pregnant before I did. Is it a boy or a girl? They should be around five years old…” Bai Qi wanted to laugh when she thought of Ye Xiaotao’s cute and innocent face.
“Miss, young madam’s child… didn’t make it…”
“What? Didn’t make it? How?” Bai Qi was shocked.
“Umm…” Ah Chen hesitated.
Bai Qi had always thought that her brother had a child with Xiaotao. She never thought that the child would be gone. When she was abducted by Ye Ziyi, Xiao Tao was already three months into her pregnancy.
It was hard to explain over the phone, so Bai Qi did not ask further. When she returned in the future, she would sort it out. “Then where is Xiaotao now?”
“Young master and young madam got a divorce a long time ago. I heard that the young madam went to Paris to further her studies. I don’t know the specifics…”
Bai Qi was not surprised by this outcome. The child was the bond between the two of them. Without the child, the two of them would definitely fall out. At that time, Xiaotao was only 20 years old, the golden age for a girl. She was the daughter of the Ye family, beautiful and talented. She probably had a bright future when separated from Leng’s brother.
“Then did my big brother… remarry?”
“No.”
Bai Qi did not say anything else. Her big brother was no longer in his youth…
At that time, when Ye Ziyi was holding her hostage, he made a move on Xiaotao. Her big brother must have gone to save Xiaotao. The two of them had more love for each other than they appeared to be. She did not know what happened later that caused them to break up.
“Ah Chen, how is my father?”
“Master has woken up…”
“Really?” Bai Qi was pleasantly surprised.
“Yes, but Master becomes puzzled occasionally. Sometimes he is well and sometimes he is in poor condition mentally. It’s probably because so many things had happened and only the young master is left. It feels very lonely…”
Bai Qi’s heart ached. Indeed, a lot of things had happened to the Leng family in the past few years. Her father had told her before that he wants nothing but for her and her brother to each have a complete family and live happily.
Unfortunately, Leng and her brother were now…
“I understand. When I’m done here, I’ll return to Hong Kong. Before that, don’t tell anyone about me,” Bai Qi instructed.
“Yes.”
After hanging up the phone, Bai Qi looked at the time. It was already past three in the afternoon, and little Sileng’s school ended at 4:10.
She was going to pick up little Sileng from school.
…
At the entrance of the kindergarten.
Bai Qi got out of the taxi. The school was already over, and there were many parents and students near the main entrance. Bai Qi looked around and quickly saw Zhou Sileng’s little figure. Mother Zhou had already picked him up and was holding his little hand.
Bai Qi looked at Mother Zhou. It had been four years since they last met, and Mother Zhou indeed aged. Her love for Little Sileng could be seen from her eyes. In the past, Mother Zhou had treated Leng as if she was her own daughter, but Leng had not been around for the past four years. It must have been hard on Mother Zhou.
Bai Qi walked forward and called out, “Auntie, Sileng.”
Mother Zhou and Zhou Sileng quickly turned their heads. When Zhou Sileng saw her, he immediately rushed over like a horse on the loose. His tender and beautiful little face radiated with a brilliant smile. “Bai Qi, have you come to see me?”
Bai Qi squatted down. She looked at the little guy in front of her with a loving gaze. She reached out and touched his little head. The corners of her lips curled up gently. “Sileng, how about I pick you up from school every day?”
“Really? Bai Qi, you’re so good to me!” This was great news for Zhou Sileng.
“Sileng, are you hungry? There’s food on the next street. Let’s go get some food.”
“Wow!” Zhou Sileng’s eyes lit up. He rarely went out, so he was naturally very curious about the outside world, especially the variety of snacks outside. However, “Bai Qi, my grandmother probably doesn’t agree with me going.”
“It’s okay. I’ll let your grandmother know.” Bai Qi held Zhou Sileng’s soft little hand.
She walked in front of Mother Zhou. “Auntie, I’ll take Sileng for a walk on the next street. We’ll be back in about twenty minutes.”
Mother Zhou hesitated for a moment. “There are a lot of people on that street, and it’s very dirty. The food there can’t be eaten…”
“Sileng is a boy. It’s okay to not be so peculiar when he’s still young. If he wants to eat something, it’s okay to let him eat once in a while. Auntie, we’ll be back in a while.” Bai Qi held Zhou Sileng’s hand and walked away.
“Hey, Ms. Bai…” Mother Zhou called out softly from behind. She felt that it was quite strange. The Bai Qi today seemed to be different from the past. In the past, Bai Qi was just a teacher, although she liked Sileng very much, she had never decided for Sileng. But today, she directly took Sileng away.
…
Bai Qi brought Zhou Sileng to the Street of Snacks. Zhou Sileng was quite excited. He saw the kebabs by the roadside and wanted to eat them. “Bai Qi, I want to eat that.”
“Sure.” Bai Qi brought Zhou Sileng over. “Sir, give me one seaweed, one beancurd, one beef balls…”
Bai Qi ordered a few things, and the owner put them all into a disposable cup. “Little friend, do you want it spicy?”
Zhou Sileng looked at the red chili, then looked up at Bai Qi with a fawning look. “Bai Qi, my grandma and daddy don’t let me eat spicy food, but I can handle a little bit.”
Zhou Sileng gestured with his fingers.
Bai Qi smiled and said to the boss, “Give me some chili and put it on the side.”
“Alrighty.” The boss handed the cup over.
Bai Qi paid and the two of them walked away. Zhou Sileng picked a beef ball and dipped it in some chili. He took a bite and chewed with relish. “Bai Qi, it’s so delicious. Have a bite too.”
“Okay.” Bai Qi bent down. She took a bite of the beef ball in Zhou Sileng’s little hand. She felt that the chili was quite spicy. “Sileng, don’t you think it’s too spicy?”
“It is spicy.” Zhou sileng stuck out his little pink tongue. “But it’s also very delicious. I saw that the other kids also eat chili. I saw that they ate it and I wanted to eat it too, but grandma and daddy didn’t allow me to eat it.”
Seeing Zhou Sileng’s dejected expression, Bai Qi caressed his jet-black hair lovingly. “Sileng, grandma and daddy are doing this for your own good…”
“I know. They are doing this for my own good. I’m too young and eating chili isn’t good. I only eat it once in a while. It’s just a drop in the bucket. I won’t eat it often.”
Bai Qi looked at the little guy beside her leg and felt her heart soften. She knew that Little Sileng had been well-educated in the past four years.
“Sileng, you stay here. I’ll buy you a cup of milk tea.”
He wanted to drink it the last time.
“Okay, okay.” Zhou Sileng was very happy.
Bai Qi bought a cup of red bean milk tea. She turned around and walked towards Zhou Sileng. The little guy stood in place. At this moment, he was staring in front of him with widen eyes.
