Chapter 427: Chapter 401: Important Issue

Dong Yi was embarrassed by Second Brother Yu’s attention, but she had to answer Mother Yu’s question, “Mom, Auntie…”

She still found it difficult to change what she called her, often getting it wrong; Mother Yu pretended not to hear.

She couldn’t pick on her, this pair of Second Brother Yu was fundamentally different from the other two pairs in the family; they both had low EQ, thin-skinned, and had to be extra tolerant towards them.

“Just use any form of address that feels right,” Mother Yu helped her out.

“Well, we might have to change it in the future anyway, and then it won’t be awkward when we reach the ultimate address,” Xiao Qian added the jab, as a kind of “revenge” for Second Brother Yu and Da Yi provoking her fiancé who wasn’t by her side.

The ultimate address would be just “mom,” right?

She had to change her address once she got married; Xiao Qian felt that given Second Brother Yu’s EQ, he probably wouldn’t be able to find another girl, and sooner or later, they would have to get married.

Dong Yi’s face turned red at Xiao Qian’s words, and Second Brother Yu stood up for his girlfriend.

“Xiao Qian, you’re becoming more and more like the youngest nowadays.”

It was as shameless as ever; how could they have thought that Xiao Qian was a particularly stable person back then? Anyone close to Youngest Brother Yu would be led astray by him.

Xiao Qian shamelessly accepted Second Brother Yu’s evaluation, “Ming Lang and I are engaged to be married, so of course our values should be the same. Who else should I resemble but him? It’s just like you and Da Yi, look, even your taste in choosing things is the same.”

Xiao Qian pointed to the car key that Second Brother Yu had placed on the table; a burnt toast smiling keychain hung on it, soft to the touch.

Da Yi also had an identical one, tied to her backpack.

Dong Yi had actually already noticed the identical keychain earlier. When she went to the hospital, Eldest Sister-in-law gave it to her, saying it was a free gift she got while shopping; she didn’t want it, and so she threw it away. Da Yi liked it so much at the time that Second Brother Yu saw it and bought one for her too.

Now it seemed that behind every coincidence, there was a necessity. At this point, Da Yi probably knew how this thing came about, and the sweetness in her heart increased; she glanced at Second Brother Yu, who shifted his gaze elsewhere, but his ears were suspiciously reddish.

Usually wise, Mother Yu did not get along well with her son today; she didn’t notice her son’s expression of being caught in a private matter, but went along with Xiao Qian’s remark.

“That’s right, Second Brother often plays with this thing when he has nothing to do. I saw him standing by the window, poking at it a few days ago. He’s quite a big guy, like the youngest, and he loves these miscellaneous things.”

Yu Mingyi’s ears turned even redder.

Dong Yi also lowered her head, feeling overwhelmed with sweetness.

But Ming Lang, who was at the company at the moment, was accidentally shot. Xiao Qian felt sorry for her man.

“Second Brother is not like Ming Lang. Ming Lang really likes anime, while what Second Brother likes is the person who likes this little cartoon character.”

With one sentence, she revealed the truth; Dong Yi got up, “I’m going to the restroom.”

Second Brother got up too, “Let’s go together.”

When Panpan saw that both her dad and Yi Yi were leaving, she jumped off the chair and followed, “Me too…”

“You stay put!” Xiao Qian pressed Panpan down on the chair and gave her a chicken leg to gnaw on.

Don’t be a light bulb.

Although Panpan started talking late, she understood everything in her heart. She could feel the difference between her dad and Yi Yi these days, and she was unhappy about it too. Now that they were both together, the child was very satisfied.

Seeing that the two of them had left, Panpan hurriedly pointed at the door, “Not going, not going!”

Xiao Qian patted her shoulder, “They won’t leave, they’ll be right back, and they won’t leave in the future, always accompanying Panpan.”

Still not giving up, Panpan wanted to go down, but Xiao Qian held her tightly, not allowing her to disturb Dong Yi and Yu Mingyi. Panpan pouted, looking upset.

Mother Yu sighed at the sight, “This child’s sentimental nature is really similar to Second Brother.”

Panpan was a pitiable child; although she was slightly different from ordinary children, Mother Yu believed that with Dong Yi and Xiao Qian’s treatment, Panpan would get better and better.

“She has excellent concentration, is very smart, and also very-” Xiao Qian hadn’t finished speaking when she felt a strange smell. She lowered her head and picked up Panpan by pinching her ribs.

“Hey, little handsome guy, is it really okay for you to fart on someone’s leg without warning?”

Panpan snorted and turned her head away, who told her not to let herself follow suit.

Mother Yu couldn’t help but laugh, “This child’s vindictive nature is really quite like the youngest.”

Xiao Qian pointed at Panpan’s little nose, “You little naughty, you won’t get a wife like this~”

Panpan snorted and raised her little feet, kicking at Xiao Qian’s stomach, afraid of her!

Not cute… Xiao Qian stared back at him.

“By the way, Auntie, how did the Wang Family find out?” Xiao Qian teased the child enough and suddenly remembered this important question.

“Someone must be stirring things up behind the scenes. I don’t know what’s going on with our family lately, but all these messy things keep happening.”

Mother Yu complained.

Xiao Qian lowered her head and thought for a moment, could it be Aunt’s doing?

It shouldn’t be; Miss Yu had a grudge against her and Ming Lang, being provoked by her first, being punished by Ming Lang later, and finally being stabbed by Ming Xi. Even if she was badly hurt and wanted to make a desperate counterattack, she shouldn’t target Second Brother Yu, but go directly against her and Ming Lang.

Xiao Qian didn’t have the ability to foresee the future, and she didn’t expect the hospital scene to be accidentally witnessed by Aunt, who took a grudge against Yu Mingyi.

After some thinking, Xiao Qian didn’t discuss this matter with Second Brother Yu, as it was a family conflict within Yu Mingyi’s family, and she couldn’t interfere.

She believed that Yu Mingyi was not the kind of man who lacked problem-solving skills. He might need to improve his relationship with his family, but as a man who managed to climb to this position, if he couldn’t handle even this kind of external matter, death wouldn’t be too much for him.

Before leaving, Xiao Qian asked Yu Mingyi if there was any clue to the case, and Yu Mingyi nodded.

He had already asked someone to start investigating the account number of the remittance. Following clues in a trail, he believed that the truth was only one step away.

Seeing his confident expression, Xiao Qian also kept quiet.

Although the incident was unexpected and frightened Dong Yi, it unexpectedly became a breakthrough point for the deadlock between her and Second Brother Yu. From another perspective, this wasn’t necessarily a bad thing. Good things can turn bad if not handled properly, and similarly, bad things can turn good if handled properly.

The two people who lacked love experience and had held back for such a long time before getting together, whether it was Da Yi, who had dreams of being sprayed by water for thinking of Yu Mingyi, or Yu Mingyi, who had never experienced true love before the age of 30; the two of them ignited an incredible fire once together, and the old house that was on fire when they were together burned fiercely, almost burning Xiao Qian, an onlooker, to death.
