"My uncle won't answer me." After saying this, Qianqian started crying grievously.
Her tears, like kites with broken strings, couldn't be reeled back in easily.
Seeing Qianqian sobbing until her body convulsed, Yuze ponderously searched for the most effective words to comfort her.
"How about we go to Daddy's company to find him?"
Yuze and Xiao Ran spoke almost at the same time.
Tears streaking her cheeks, Qianqian looked blankly at Yuze and Xiao Ran, "Can we really?"
"After we finish eating, we'll head to Daddy's company," Xiao Ran said, raising his hand to gather Yuze and Qianqian to his side.
The three formed a small circle, and Xiao Ran quietly began to explain his plan.
After their discussion, Qianqian's face no longer held sadness, but instead transformed into anticipation and joy.
After they left, Xingxing emerged from his room. He watched their retreating figures, recalling the words Xiao Ran had just spoken.
Go to the company to find them? Given their current situation, they wouldn't be at the company. If they encountered trouble on their way out, wouldn't that just complicate matters further?
At the dining table, Xingxing continuously observed their movements.
"I'm done eating," Xiao Ran put down his chopsticks.
As he set down his utensils, Qianqian and Yuze also followed suit.
After exchanging glances, the three spoke simultaneously, "Grandpa, we want to play in the yard."
Ye Qianzhi looked at his phone, waving a dismissive hand.
Leaving the dining table was already a successful step.
The maids were busy in the morning, so no one would be watching them in the yard. Even if they secretly slipped out of the yard, the household maids wouldn't discover it for a short while.
Xingxing watched them leave and then placed his own chopsticks on the table.
Normally, no one paid attention to his actions. Even if he went out in front of the maids, he wouldn't be stopped.
Yuze first accompanied Qianqian outside. After they had walked a considerable distance, Xiao Ran then left. Xingxing, who had been watching them all along, calculated the timing and followed them out of the Ye residence.
Di Ming Imperial Group.
Stepping out of the taxi, Xiao Ran and Yuze each took one of Qianqian's hands, walking towards the company lobby.
"Children, what are you doing? This is a company, not a place you can just enter," a security guard blocked them at the entrance.
So close to entering, they now faced a stern-faced security guard.
Xiao Ran stepped forward and said to the guard, "Our Daddy is Di Mingjue, and this is our Daddy's company."
The security guard chuckled, mistaking their words for a casual excuse to get inside. He continued to block their entry, "Our President Di isn't in the company. You won't be able to see him even if you go in."
"Not in the company? Then where is he?" Yuze asked.
They hadn't returned for several days. If they weren't busy with company matters, why wouldn't they come back?
"You're asking me? I don't know either," the security guard was amused by his question. "I'm just a small security guard. The President doesn't report his whereabouts or activities to me. You should go back now and stop disturbing my work."
With the guard refusing to let them pass, they couldn't get in. The three of them, with no other option, had to find another way to see them.
Cars flowed past behind them, and people bustled all around. They stood by the roadside, sighing helplessly.
"Why haven't Daddy and Mommy come back for days? And their phones are switched off," Yuze inquired.
Qianqian shook her head, feeling wronged and on the verge of tears, "Do they not want us anymore?"
"Impossible," Yuze negated with absolute certainty. "Mommy would never abandon us."
She hadn't abandoned him when he was sick, let alone now when they were all healthy and had a happy family.
