Qin Qiao'er was at her wit's end now. She wanted to persuade Qin Chenchen and Qin Wanwan first, hoping they would not harbor so much hostility towards Zhao Youting. After all, they had once lived happily together for a while.
"Why don't you two try getting along with Zhao Youting again? After all, you've both called him 'Dad Youting' for so long," Qin Qiao'er advised.
"I don't want to! I don't want to! He's just a big liar, tricking us into calling him Dad!" Qin Wanwan sat there sulking with her arms folded.
Qin Qiao'er cast a pleading look at Qin Chenchen, hoping he could persuade his sister. But Qin Chenchen also looked like he didn't want to talk to Qin Qiao'er.
Seeing the two children like this, Qin Qiao'er suddenly felt it was a tough problem. After all, Qin Chenchen was going to be discharged from the hospital today. If they didn't resolve this matter today, she didn't know where they would go at night.
"How about we go home first? When we get home, we can pack our luggage. Then, wait for Mom to find a new house, and we can move out. What do you think?"
Having no other choice, Qin Qiao'er had to make a compromise. It was almost time to vacate the ward, and she didn't want Qin Chenchen to stay in the hospital any longer. After all, the hospital wasn't a very comfortable place.
The two kids finally reluctantly agreed.
After they packed their things and walked out of the ward, they found Zhao Youting looking at them expectantly. Qin Qiao'er tried to avoid his gaze, while the two kids simply turned their heads and ignored him.
Zhao Youting felt extremely hurt. In fact, he also felt wronged. He simply couldn't remember what had happened five years ago. He didn't mean to abandon the three of them.
If he had known he was the biological father of these two kids, he would have taken them back a long time ago, instead of waiting until it was too late.
Zhao Youting's eyes dimmed. "Let me help you carry your things."
Qin Chenchen hugged his small bag tightly. "We don't need your help. We can do it ourselves. Anyway, we've been doing it on our own for the past few years."
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward. Qin Qiao'er didn't want Zhao Youting to feel guilty. After all, it was her own choice to go abroad, and she couldn't shift all the blame onto Zhao Youting.
Qin Qiao'er quickly tried to smooth things over. "I'll help you carry this. Zhao Youting, could you help me carry the bag in my hand?"
Seeing that Qin Qiao'er was still on his side, Zhao Youting let out a sigh of relief. He thought there might still be a chance to win her back, so he quickly took the bag Qin Qiao'er handed him.
Seeing Qin Qiao'er showing favoritism towards Zhao Youting, Qin Chenchen snorted in his heart, but still handed his bag to Qin Qiao'er. They walked home in this awkward way.
After getting home, Qin Chenchen and Qin Wanwan were in a hurry to pack all their luggage, saying they wanted to leave right away.
It was Qin Qiao'er who quickly stopped them, saying it was already very late. If they left now, they wouldn't know where to go or where to stay.
Qin Qiao'er kept telling Qin Chenchen and Qin Wanwan to calm down and think it over carefully. They shouldn't act impulsively and make mistakes they would regret.
Although the two kids obediently listened to what Qin Qiao'er said, they quickly forgot it. All they had in mind was their hatred for Zhao Youting.
Zhao Youting also wanted to seize this opportunity to show himself, but no matter what he did these days, Qin Chenchen and Qin Wanwan ignored him. He had never seen these two kids act like this before.
When he first pursued Qin Qiao'er, he started with the two kids. At that time, they were very nice to him and had never given him the cold shoulder like this.
Zhao Youting suddenly felt very scared. He was afraid that the happiness that was almost within his reach would slip away from him. He was afraid that such a situation would happen.
Even these days, Qin Qiao'er had been sleeping in a separate room from him. They had only been together for a short time, and he had just gotten used to having Qin Qiao'er in his arms every night.
He was also very used to seeing Qin Qiao'er's figure as soon as he woke up in the morning. He kept thinking in his heart, was the wish he made on his birthday going to be shattered like this?
Zhao Youting really naively thought that after that day, his life would be smooth sailing from then on, and there would never be such hardships between them again. But unexpectedly, the accident happened unexpectedly.
That night when he got home, Zhao Youting specially went to the toy store and bought the toys the two kids liked to play with before, hoping to make them happy.
When he got home, he found Qin Qiao'er and the two kids sitting in the living room. Zhao Youting walked over excitedly, wanting to show off.
But as soon as he took out the things and put them in front of the kids, Qin Wanwan immediately threw them aside.
She picked up a very shabby toy and pretended to say casually, "I still like playing with this."
Zhao Youting knew what she meant. This was the only toy they had brought with them when they first moved here, and most of the others were bought by him.
Qin Chenchen also chimed in, "Sure enough, if you don't like something, you just don't like it. No matter how long you play with it, in the end, you still don't like it."
What Qin Chenchen said was much more hurtful than what Qin Wanwan said. Qin Chenchen wasn't a very talkative person, but people like him thought more.
Zhao Youting suddenly felt a headache. He was confident that he could win Qin Wanwan's heart back, but he really had no confidence in making Qin Chenchen's attitude towards him the same as when they first met.
Now he began to dislike Qin Chenchen's maturity a bit. Before, he always thought this kid was very sensible and liked to play with him.
