Chapter 33 The Problematic Rose
Qin Yuyang and Qin Yuhai were busy handling the aftermath.
The secret was handed over to Ye Xuan.
"Xiao Jiu, you stay with your... Aunt Ye for now."
Qin Yuyang has many things to do and doesn't have time to worry about such things for the time being.
Qin Yuhai, being a son himself, naturally joined in to help.
They will be very busy for the next few days.
Little Jiu is just a child; we can't leave him to fend for himself outside.
Ye Xuan smiled at Qin Yuyang: "Go ahead and get busy, Lao Qin. I'll take care of Xiao Jiu."
"Ah."
Qin Yuyang nodded and left with Qin Yuhai.
"Let's go, let's go to your uncle's place to get your things first."
As soon as the others left, Ye Xuan's expression turned cold, and her tone became indifferent.
Xiao Jiu Jiu didn't argue and obediently followed him away.
Return to the Qin family.
Ye Xuan had someone arrange a random room for Xiao Jiu Jiu.
The room was clean and tidy, and the items were quite simple.
The treatment Xiao Jiu Jiu received when she first visited the Ye family was far inferior to what she was treated like.
This place is so-so, but not bad either.
Coal Ball lay lazily on the bed, wiping its wet paws with the blanket.
Xiao Jiu Jiu didn't have many things, so she just tidied up a bit and put the plush bear on the bedside table.
"Knock knock knock."
There was a knock on the door.
Just as Xiao Jiu Jiu was about to take a shower, she ran to the door and exclaimed, "Coming!"
Upon opening the door, Xiao Jiu Jiu paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Hello, Aunt Ye."
Ye Xuan took a shower and stood in the doorway of the room in the far corner of the second floor, wearing a silk bathrobe.
Seeing Xiao Jiu Jiu open the door, she glanced inside and smiled, "Xiao Jiu, the room was tidied up in a bit of a rush, so please make do with it for a few days."
"Ah."
Little Jiu Jiu didn't cry or make a fuss, and obediently nodded.
Ye Xuan wanted to say something more.
Little Jiu Jiu is just over five years old; she can't cause any trouble.
Feeling bored, he turned and left.
Xiao Jiujiu closed the door and opened the window.
"Meow~"
Coal Ball hopped in, wagging its tail.
This villa is quite easy to climb; even a thief could do it. But next time, could you bring me in openly?
Someone knocked on the door just now, and Xiao Jiu Jiu ruthlessly chased the coal ball out.
I have to wash my feet again.
Coal Ball complained as he went into the bathroom.
Little Nine-Nine: ...
*
The next morning.
Little Jiu Jiu slid downstairs in her slippers.
The maid brought her breakfast.
Not far away, Ye Xuan sat on the sofa.
A 100-inch screen was playing a TV series, while Ye Xuan was painting her nails.
Her fair and slender hands were adorned with bright red nail polish.
"Good morning, Auntie," Xiao Jiu Jiu greeted sweetly.
Ye Xuan said casually, "Go find somewhere to have fun by yourself, and don't bother me."
Little Jiu Jiu was quite obedient.
I slipped out after breakfast.
Ye Xuan glanced at Xiao Jiu Jiu's cheerful back and seemed to be deep in thought.
"Mom, morning."
Qin Xin came downstairs wearing a short dress.
Looking away, Ye Xuan said to her, "You're going to your piano lesson today."
"But Mom, Grandma isn't..."
Previously, Dong Qiufeng had always been the sole head of the household.
This person has a very strong preference for sons over daughters.
Qin Hao gets whatever he wants.
Qin Xin loses money no matter what she does.
Even when Ye Xuan wanted to send Qin Xin to an extracurricular class, she would only complain that she was a money-losing brat.
He would also hurl insults at Ye Xuan along with her.
As for Qin Yuyang, he will unconditionally stand by his mother's side and tell Ye Xuan not to take it to heart.
The old woman is now dead.
She's the one who runs the household!
"What grandma? Your grandma is gone. Didn't you want to learn piano before? Go ahead."
Ye Xuan said casually.
Qin Xin's eyes lit up: "Really?"
"That is……"
"Thank you, Mom!" Qin Xin rushed into Ye Xuan's arms and gave her a big kiss on the cheek.
Seeing her daughter so happy for the first time, Ye Xuan smiled inwardly.
She pushed Qin Xin away with a look of disgust: "Study hard, don't embarrass me. Go after you've had breakfast."
"Okay!"
"Little Jiu, what are you looking at?" Coal Ball's voice rang out at Little Jiu's feet.
Xiao Jiu Jiu, who was hiding by the door, looked away and shook her head, saying, "It's nothing, let's go play!"
Are you envious?
Coal Ball followed slowly behind: "Your mother should be dead. You still need to look forward."
"I'm not envious, let's go have some fun!"
Xiao Jiu forced a smile, denying that she had indeed been somewhat envious of Qin Xin just now.
She took the coal briquettes and went to play in the backyard garden.
The Qin family villa occupies a considerable area, divided into a front yard and a back yard.
There is a large patch of roses in the backyard.
They were all planted by people specifically hired by Qin Yuyang.
Simply because Ye Xuan likes roses.
Wow, so many beautiful roses!
Little Jiu Jiu ran into the garden with delight; the garden was full of bright and beautiful red roses.
The air was filled with the rich fragrance of flowers.
The coal ball sneezed: [The smell of blood is so strong!]
"I didn't smell anything..."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Jiujiu stopped abruptly.
Her gaze fell on one of the roses.
Those roses were bigger, prettier, and more vibrant than the others.
It looked like it was stained with blood.
Extremely alluring.
"Is there something wrong with these flowers?"
Just as Xiao Jiu Jiu was about to go over and investigate, a figure rushed out.
"Get out of the way, this is my mother's garden!"
Qin Hao, head down, charged toward Xiao Jiujiu like a cannon.
"Oh!"
"Wow!"
Xiao Jiu Jiu dodged to the side, and Qin Hao crashed directly to the ground.
The coal ball took the opportunity to slip away.
Qin Hao, lying on the ground, felt excruciating pain and burst into tears, crying, "Waaah! It hurts so much!"
"You bumped into me and fell to the ground, you deserved it!" Xiao Jiu Jiu only said nine words.
Qin Hao cried hysterically.
The crying was so loud that Xiao Jiu Jiu, afraid of attracting attention, could only say, "Aren't you a man? You cry every time you fall, you're more delicate than a girl."
It is well known that reverse psychology is very effective with children.
Qin Hao immediately held back his tears, wiped them away casually with his hand, got up and said fiercely, "Get out of here, this is my mother's garden!"
Oh dear, that's terrible, so fierce!
Just as Xiao Jiujiu was about to retaliate, she heard a young man's voice coming from Qin Hao's direction.
The voice continued to chatter on.
[She's so fierce at home now, but why was she always bullied at school?]
[You're just a bully at home, a useless piece of trash!]
Even being a bug next to you is miserable!
Xiao Jiujiu glanced around and her gaze fell on Qin Hao's shoulder.
There stood a bright orange ladybug with seven black spots on its body.
Xiao Jiu Jiu paused for a moment and looked at Qin Hao.
They noticed that although the other person was trying to appear fierce, there was unease and fear flickering in their eyes.
Coward!
"Oh? I can't enter this garden?" Xiao Jiu Jiu crossed her arms and looked at Qin Hao with an unfriendly gaze.
Qin Hao shuddered, but remembering that he was at home, he regained his composure.
Grandma said the entire Qin family belongs to him!
He just needs to be tough!
Qin Hao shouted, "No, this is my home!"
"But I also really like that patch of roses, I just want to see it."
"It's not my business!"
Xiao Jiu Jiu's eyes darted around: "If I tell you your secret, will you let me pass?"
There was something wrong with those roses; she had to go over and take a closer look.
just in case……
