Chapter 1061: Chapter 1061: The Death of Ye Si (1)

“Big brother, when Amou returns, I would like you to take care of her and my child,” Ye Qilan’s first words furrowed Ye Shiqing’s brow deeply.

“What are you saying? Your woman and child, why should I take care of them?” Ye Shiqing rebuked in a low voice.

“I mean, if something were to happen to me in the future, and someone bullies our family Amou, you must help her, stand by her side,” Ye Qilan said gravely.

He had made many enemies, and if something happened to him, surely many would target Su Hongxing.

For the first time in his life, he felt so helpless.

“Did Liu Yuan contact you?” Ye Shiqing wanted to ask more, but someone was hurrying him because a meeting was about to start.

Ye Qilan also knew that Ye Shiqing was busy, and he said hoarsely, “Big brother, you haven’t agreed to my request yet!”

“Of course, that’s no problem. But Su Hongxing is your woman, I have no reason to keep taking care of her…”

Ye Shiqing hadn’t finished speaking when Ye Qilan interrupted him, “Big brother, thanks!”

Then the call was disconnected.

Ye Shiqing stood there stunned for a while, only gathering his focus when the meeting started.

Not long after Ye Qilan hung up the phone, Age entered the office with Little Pudding.

The moment Ye Qilan saw Little Pudding, his eyes and brow softened. He reached out, and Little Pudding ran towards him with small, short legs and rushed into his embrace, “Daddy!”

Ye Qilan gently pinched the little one’s nose, and upon seeing chocolate on her mouth, he wiped it off with a tissue, “Eating too much sugar will give you cavities.”

“I didn’t eat a lot, just a little piece,” Little Pudding cooed while sitting on Ye Qilan’s lap.

Ye Qilan laughed, playing a puzzle game with Little Pudding.

Age just watched from the side.

Watching him, Ye Qilan seemed perfectly alright, just without his previous depressive mood. Just as Fu Yan had said, had Liu Yuan already contacted Ye Qilan?

Li Yan mentioned that someone had delivered a package in the morning; could that package have been from Liu Yuan?

Ye Qilan played with Little Pudding for half an hour. He watched the child intently, his nose tingling.

Little Pudding turned to look at him, “Why are you crying, Daddy?”

Ye Qilan grasped the child’s hand, his eyes stinging, “When Mommy comes back, Little Pudding must take good care of Mommy, okay?”

Little Pudding, somewhat confused and seeing Ye Qilan distressed, also felt a heartbreaking sadness.

“Daughter, give Daddy another kiss,” Ye Qilan hugged Little Pudding.

Little Pudding kissed Ye Qilan fiercely once and again on his face, as if more kisses could cheer him up.

Then, Ye Qilan handed Little Pudding to Age, “Take good care of Little Pudding, I have to go out for a while.”

“Is there news about Miss Su?” Age followed behind Ye Qilan, feeling very uneasy.

Ye Qilan had been plagued by nightmares, then Su Hongxing was taken. Now, was Ye Qilan about to meet Liu Yuan alone?

He suddenly understood why Ye Qilan had been so anxious those days. If Liu Yuan wanted Ye Qilan’s life this time, and with Su Hongxing and the child in his possession, manipulating Ye Qilan would be effortless.

Ye Qilan didn’t answer Age’s question; his gaze remained fixed on Little Pudding, his eyes filled with reluctance.

Little Pudding seemed to sense something too, her big eyes quickly gathering tears; she reached out her chubby hand towards Ye Qilan with a choked voice, “I want Daddy to hold me.”
