Quick Wear: Oops, the mission target is crying again

Even as Lingyao stood up and their lips parted, Chen Ping'an was still in a daze.

He even subconsciously tugged at Lingyao's hand.

After calming down a bit, I realized how out of line I had just acted.

How scoundrel!

Although it seemed to be her initiative, he shouldn't just let himself sink into depravity like this.

That's what he thought, but in reality, he not only didn't want to stop Ling Yao at all, but even now, he wished he could stick to Ling Yao.

Lingyao was sitting there eating popcorn, and he sat down next to her, wanting to eat some too.

Once he started eating, he didn't stop; he ate almost half the bucket.

After finishing his meal, he felt a little embarrassed and wanted to go out and buy Lingyao some more.

Lingyao pulled the person back immediately.

"What are you doing, making such a fuss?"

That popcorn was originally bought for him.

She doesn't like eating these things.

Chen Ping'an was initially quite conflicted about his background, but after Ling Yao's kiss and coaxing, his complicated feelings improved considerably.

Yes, although Lingyao didn't say anything nice, Chen Ping'an was easily charmed by her actions and behavior.

He even knew to ask Lingyao.

"Don't you think this is too much of a coincidence?"

Ever since he entered the city, he had been frequently running into that family, as if it were all arranged by someone.

Lingyao really wanted to say that it was not a coincidence at all.

They met Qin Shaoxin and Song Mingle at the best restaurant in the city.

Given Qin Shaoxin and Song Mingle's identities, coupled with Qin Fei's penchant for showing off, it's not surprising that they would go to such a restaurant.

The only difference is that Chen Ping'an couldn't go to restaurants like this before.

This time, the two happened to have some money, so they went to that restaurant.

What happened after meeting Qin Shaoxin and Song Mingle was even more unfortunate.

Chen Ping'an looks so much like Qin Shaoxin. Not to mention when they were young, even now Chen Ping'an and Qin Shaoxin are about 60% similar.

It would be strange if Qin Shaoxin, with his experience and keen insight, hadn't noticed it.

After listening to Ling Yao's simple and direct analysis, Chen Ping'an felt relieved.

He was genuinely worried that the city people were setting him up in some kind of trap to deceive them.

But after thinking it over, there was nothing about him that could be easily fooled.

If there is anything precious or worth remembering about him...

That means there's only one left.

Chen Ping'an's gaze fell on Ling Yao.

At that moment, his adrenaline was rising and his hormones were being secreted uncontrollably, which made him look at Ling Yao and unable to help but ask her that question.

"So, are we... a couple? With marriage as the goal?"

After he finished speaking, he stared intently at Ling Yao.

Lingyao kept a straight face, pretending to be serious.

With a straight face: "Of course, Comrade Chen Ping'an, are you trying to be a scoundrel?"

Chen Ping'an's hands shook violently as the pot hit him.

His stuttering became even more pronounced due to his anxiety.

"No, no, that's not true!"

After hastily offering a brief explanation, he suddenly noticed a hint of a smile in Ling Yao's eyes, though it wasn't very obvious.

He suddenly realized that Lingyao was playing a trick on him.

He immediately went over and pulled Lingyao into his arms, burying his head in Lingyao's shoulder and nuzzling her.

"You did this on purpose!"

Lingyao's face was tense: "I didn't. Do you have any proof?"

Chen Ping'an couldn't produce any evidence, but he firmly believed that Ling Yao did it on purpose.

He stared at Lingyao's lips, which were so close to his own, and suddenly leaned in to kiss her, then kissed her again.

Then, huffing and puffing, he said it with a straight face.

"This is...this is what it means for me to be a scoundrel!"

Lingyao: ...

Well, even the God of Wealth has become clever and wicked these days.

The whole world is bullying your girls!

Getting rich quick: ...There's no obligation not to bully others!

The next day, as Chen Ping'an and Ling Yao were packing their things, they saw Qin Shaoxin and Song Mingle waiting outside the hotel.

Chen Ping'an was smiling, but when he saw the two of them, his smile faded.

Chen Ping'an felt a sense of trepidation, like being close to home, towards the two people who suddenly appeared and claimed to be his biological parents.

It just feels a bit unfamiliar.

Song Mingle stepped forward to help them take the things.

“We heard you’re going back to Jianghe Village today. We happen to have nothing to do during the day, so we’ll take you back. We should also pay a visit to your Grandma Chen while we’re at it.”

"Nothing much is happening today" is naturally an excuse.

In fact, Qin Shaoxin should have gone back to the provincial capital a long time ago; even the old man personally called to inquire about it.

When asked why they hadn't gone back yet, they said they had only come to give their son a talking-to.

Qin Shaoxin hasn't told the old man about this yet, fearing that it wouldn't be clear over the phone, and besides, it's hard to prevent the risk of such things being leaked over the phone.

He planned to tell the old man in person when he got back.

But he has to come even if he doesn't have time. How can he refuse something like this?

Chen Ping'an didn't say anything, and finally got into Qin Shaoxin's car, this time with Song Mingle sitting in the front.

Lingyao and Chen Pingan sat in the back.

Song Mingle knew that the child wouldn't be able to accept this matter in a short time, so he stopped sitting behind the child and putting pressure on him.

The group remained relatively quiet throughout the journey.

Lingyao was not a talkative person to begin with, and Chen Ping'an was still a bit carsick, so he rested his head on Lingyao's shoulder and fell into a deep sleep.

Qin Shaoxin and Song Ming were pleased to see that the child was sleeping, so they didn't disturb him.

A gleaming car drove into the village once again.

However, because it was a low-key investigation last time, Qin Shaoxin did not drive the car into the village, but parked it on the main road in the distance.

This time, we drove straight into the village.

Many villagers had never even seen a car before, and they all craned their necks to see who this important person was who had driven into the village.

When the car door opened, they saw people getting out.

I was shocked.

Isn't this the stuttering boy from the Chen family? How come he's changed so much in just a few days?

If they hadn't been carrying large bags and small packages on their way to Old Lady Chen's house, they really wouldn't have been sure.

That little stutterer must have made the acquaintance of some important person, judging from the fact that the people following her all look quite extraordinary.

Jiang Jianping, who had come out to collect pebbles after dinner, joined the others to watch the cars.

Then I saw his sister get out of that car.

It was incredibly impressive.

Old Mrs. Chen had been visited by Qin Shaoxin before.

Last time Qin Shaoxin came to the door, he was scolded by Old Lady Chen. At first, Old Lady Chen thought that Qin Shaoxin had abandoned Chen Ping'an. Now that he had finally raised him, he wanted to come back to claim kinship.

After the village chief explained the situation carefully and they learned about Qin Shaoxin's identity, they finally believed that Qin Shaoxin had not intentionally abandoned Chen Ping'an.

However, he was not very welcoming of Qin Shaoxin's arrival.

After all, she and Chen Ping'an depended on each other for survival. Now that her biological parents have suddenly appeared and want to take Chen Ping'an back, who would be willing to do that?

However, Qin Shaoxin naturally provided a solution.

He promised Old Lady Chen that as long as Chen Ping'an was willing to go back with them, Old Lady Chen would also be willing to go with them.

They will bring Old Lady Chen to the provincial capital.

They can treat the old lady's illness over there and enjoy her later years there.

Old Mrs. Chen didn't have many friends in the village to begin with, so she was naturally happy to have such good parents who could take care of her in her old age.

So she was very welcoming to Qin Shaoxin and Song Mingle when they brought Chen Ping'an and the others back.

Such important figures are usually only seen on television by ordinary people.

She was lucky to have found Chen Ping'an, a child who was obedient and sensible from a young age.

Now that I'm grown up, I have such amazing biological parents; it's like they've come to repay a debt of gratitude.

Knowing that the leaders were coming, the village chief also arrived very quickly.

The villagers who had been eavesdropping and watching outside Old Lady Chen's house saw the village chief rushing over, bowing and scraping.

My curiosity grew even stronger.

Who exactly is this person that the village chief treats them so well?

Of all the people at the table, Chen Ping'an was the one who was least used to it.

The village chief kept flattering him, recounting his past deeds and praising them.

The key point is that Lingyao is still there.

The village chief even recounted how, when he was a child, he had no money and went with a group of village kids to poach bird eggs to eat.

He saw her "smile" again!
