Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories

Ye Tingyun came home late that day. The night sky was speckled with stars, and Ye Tingyun sat at the balcony alone. The professor had left a long time ago, leaving only Xiao Ju to accompany her. She had been listening to the French radio for the entire afternoon. There was not a word that she did not understand, and she even knew how to spell the words vaguely.

When Xiao Ju saw Ye Tingyun return, she left.

“Miss Ye Chu is in a bad mood today,” told Xiao Ju to Ye Tingyun before leaving. Ye Tingyun tugged at his tie, loosened it, and threw it aside. He walked towards the balcony. Ye Tingyun was wearing earphones alone and listening to the news on the radio, her attention undivided. She even held onto a pen and a book and wrote something.

He went nearer to her with light footsteps. Ye Chu had discovered him already, but she had to pretend to be blind and that she did not see him. Afterward, she wrote ‘I Love You’ in French on the notebook.

She even drew a heart.

Ye Tingyun raised his eyebrows and sat beside her. Ye Chu tilted her head slightly. The stars were falling into her eyes, giving out dazzling starlight and bringing out her beautiful face.

“Is it brother?”

“What are you doing?” asked Ye Tingyun, caressing her head gently. For some unknown reason, Ye Chu was in a bad mood. She had been listening to the French radio for the entire afternoon and forgot to consult Xiao Ju on how to seduce Ye Tingyun. She only remembered that she needed to make Ye Tingyun fall in love with her when she saw him. She was a bit flustered, but she got a quick idea and placed the notebook in front of him.

There was “I love you” in French and a little heart on it.

Although her handwriting was not pretty, it was clear.

French?

“You learned French?”

“I did.” Ye Chu took out her earphones and played the news on the French radio. “I understand everything.”

“Ye Chu is so impressive.” Ye Tingyun was not too surprised. In the past, Ye Chu did not really have any experience with French. The Ye Family in Europe was all in Paris, and she did not have any memories from before she was eight. If she grew up in Paris, her foundation in French should be good. An eight-year-old child would probably have learned everything there was to be learned. She just did not have any opportunities to speak French when she was in Shanghai.

Ye Tingyun looked at her, contemplating something. Did he have to invite the Ye Family Big Brother over to see if she was the lost Ye Family’s little sister? But why was he so resistant against it?

Emma. He thought about Emma, and there seemed to be a thorn in his heart.

“Ye Chu, sleep first. I’ll let Xiao Ju come up again. I need to go out to do something.”

“Okay!”

Ye Tingyun recalled Emma from the afternoon. He had held himself back from interacting with Emma too much and hence did not manage to know more about her. He heard from Mi Er that she was an extremely capable girl.

He sat in the car and opened the data file. Ye Chu saw him leave with the data file that contained information about Emma. Ye Chu clenched her fists slightly.

Did he go look for Emma?

Was Emma coming back? Would he not want her anymore since he had found his lover? Then what would happen to her plan?

Her plan was not executed yet. She could not let Emma come back.

What should she do?

Hai Lun came up before Xiao Ju. Four levels in the MISS building were hotel-like suites. They were the break rooms for the higher-ups in the company and also housed the rooms of some agents. Xiao Ju and Hai Lun lived downstairs.

There was only Ye Chu on the top floor. As she was pretending to be blind, she did not look surprised when she saw Hai Lun. “Is it Xiao Ju?”

Hai Lun lowered her head and laughed. Everything that happened on the top floor was secret. Xiao Ju was tight-lipped and rarely spoke of what happened on the top floor.. Hai Lun did not manage to hear anything from her either.
