Early the next morning, everyone got up and busily said their goodbyes. Among them, Chenchen and Wanwan were the most reluctant.
The two little ones got up early and went looking for Zhao Youting. When they reached the man's room, they found that he was already gone. The room was so clean that it was as if no one had ever lived there.
"Mummy! Mummy! Daddy Youting is gone!" Wanwan ran over and said dejectedly.
Qin Qiao'er was taken aback. The man had left without a word! But then again, he was really busy. It was already great that he could accompany Chenchen and Wanwan for so long.
"It's okay. He has to go back to work. But don't call him Daddy Youting anymore." Qin Qiao'er said as she stroked Wanwan's head.
Chenchen nodded beside her. He was also very sad about Zhao Youting's departure.
"Then call him Uncle Youting?" Wanwan asked.
"Yeah. Come on, let's go say goodbye to Aunt Shi, Aunt Gao, Aunt Xu, and Xi Yu and Xi Jin." Qin Qiao'er pulled the two somewhat listless children and went to find Xu Xunling.
"Qiao'er! Let's keep in touch if we have the chance in the future! Let Auntie give the babies a hug!" Xu Xunling said as she picked up Chenchen and Wanwan.
"What's wrong?" Xu Xunling asked quickly when she saw that Chenchen and Wanwan were not very happy.
"Zhao Youting left without a word. The two kids are a bit out of sorts." Qin Qiao'er explained.
"Ah? It's okay. Next time we see him, we'll beat him up, okay?" Xu Xunling coaxed Chenchen and Wanwan.
Chenchen and Wanwan shook their heads. "Uncle Youting is very busy!" Wanwan said obediently.
Xu Xunling stroked the heads of the two cute children. "It's okay. You still have us." Just then, Xi Jin suddenly ran out and said.
Wanwan nodded at Xi Jin. However, Xu Xunling also had to take the car home. The sadness that had just been dispelled welled up again.
Qin Qiao'er also took the two little ones home. In the car, Wanwan shed silent tears. Qin Qiao'er saw this and quickly asked with concern, "What's wrong, baby?"
"Mummy! I don't want to part with them!" Wanwan said while crying.
"Okay, okay. Look, even your brother isn't crying. Stop crying, stop crying. Since we get together, we'll have to part. We won't be together forever. So you should cherish the days when we're together. Do you understand?" Qin Qiao'er comforted gently.
Chenchen and Wanwan nodded, and Wanwan's mood gradually calmed down.
When Qin Qiao'er and the kids got home, they smelled the aroma of the food. It was really nostalgic!
"Hey! How did you know we'd come back today?" Qin Qiao'er suddenly patted the woman on the back from behind Tu Qinqin.
"Ah!" Tu Qinqin was so scared that the spatula fell to the ground.
"Damn it! You scared the life out of me as soon as you came back!" Tu Qinqin said with a lingering fear.
"Okay, okay. Isn't it because I'm happy to see you?" Qin Qiao'er said with a smile.
"Happy so you scare me? You'd better not be happy then!" Tu Qinqin said angrily as she patted her chest.
"Okay, okay. Let me see what delicious food you've cooked. Wow! They're all our favorites. You've worked hard!" Qin Qiao'er let loose after getting home.
Tu Qinqin rolled her eyes. "Go and set the table and wash your hands for dinner." Tu Qinqin turned around and suddenly noticed Chenchen and Wanwan who were looking a bit glum behind her.
"What's going on?" Tu Qinqin frowned and asked.
"It's okay. They've developed feelings for everyone after filming the show for so long. They're reluctant to part. I just managed to comfort them." Qin Qiao'er said as she stuck out her tongue.
"Okay. You'll get used to it in the future." Tu Qinqin said while stir - frying.
"Kids, go wash your hands and come for dinner. Aunt Qinqin has cooked all your favorites." Qin Qiao'er took Chenchen and Wanwan to the bathroom.
The two adults and two kids were sitting at the dinner table eating. Chenchen and Wanwan were not very enthusiastic. They didn't even eat much of their favorite food.
"Chenchen, Wanwan. It's been a long time since we went to Brother Ziyuan's place, right? How about we go there tomorrow and play with the dogs?" Qin Qiao'er tried hard to divert the two kids' attention.
"Okay, okay! It's been so long since we saw the dogs. I really want to go. Let's go tomorrow!" Sure enough, as soon as Wanwan heard this, she responded excitedly.
Chenchen's mood also improved a bit. After all, they were just kids with short memories.
"Okay, okay. You two better eat well for me!" Qin Qiao'er said pretending to be angry.
The two kids became more enthusiastic, and they had mostly forgotten about their previous unhappiness.
The next day, Qin Qiao'er took Chenchen and Wanwan to Zhang Ziyuan's place. When the three of them arrived, Zhang Ziyuan was feeding snacks to a cat.
The man had rolled up his white sleeves, revealing his fair and beautiful muscle lines. The warm sunlight shone on the man's handsome side face, looking extremely wonderful.
When Zhang Ziyuan saw Qin Qiao'er coming, he smiled and said, "You're here? Long time no see!"
Qin Qiao'er nodded. "I went to film a show. It took quite a while." Qin Qiao'er said with a smile.
"Oh, when will it be aired? I'll definitely support it then!" Zhang Ziyuan said with a smile.
"Probably next month!"
The man nodded to show that he knew.
As soon as Chenchen and Wanwan came, they went looking for the puppies. At this moment, they were having a great time playing.
Zhang Ziyuan couldn't help but say when he saw this, "Chenchen, Wanwan! Have you missed me after such a long time?"
"Missed!" The two kids said in unison.
"Then as soon as you come, you immediately hug the dog? You don't even care about Brother Ziyuan." Zhang Ziyuan said pretending to be hurt.
Wanwan immediately threw herself into the man's arms. "Brother Ziyuan, don't be angry. Brother Ziyuan is the best!"
Qin Qiao'er shook her head with a smile. This kid was so smart.
Zhang Ziyuan smiled and stroked the girl's head. Her small body felt soft in his arms, just like a little animal.
"Was the cat you were feeding just now the previous Ragdoll cat?" Qin Qiao'er asked as she looked at the cat in the cage.
"Yes. This little one has to have some snacks every day." Zhang Ziyuan said with a smile. The man picked up the cat and handed it to Qin Qiao'er.
Qin Qiao'er quickly took it and found that the cat's fur was even smoother and shinier. "What good stuff have you been eating? Your fur has grown so well!" Qin Qiao'er said as she looked at the cat.
"Hehe..." Zhang Ziyuan chuckled as he looked at Qin Qiao'er.
"Mummy! I want to touch it!"
"Mummy! I want to too!" Chenchen and Wanwan said quickly when they saw the cat.
Qin Qiao'er squatted down, holding the cat for the two kids to touch. The cat was extremely docile and didn't move no matter who touched it.
"Wow! It's so comfortable. It's all fluffy and soft!" Wanwan said as she stroked the cat's head.
"So soft!" Chenchen said with excitement in his eyes.
"You can take it if you like it!" Zhang Ziyuan said with a smile.
"Really?" Wanwan asked happily.
"Sure. But you have to give Brother Ziyuan a kiss." Zhang Ziyuan said as he leaned his face over.
Without hesitation, Wanwan planted a kiss on the man's face.
Qin Qiao'er smiled. She didn't have the time to take care of the cat either. She would just take it to play with for a few days.
