Chapter 929: Greed is Insatiable, Ability is Lacking

~8 min read 1,500 words

Gu Zhihao: "Meiyin is very cute, and Yuke likes her especially. The mother and daughter are inseparable, and besides, it's good for the two children to have each other for company." The implication was that he wanted both.

Not only Lao Qi, but Nianyin was also not having it.

"Heh, you mean the child we risked our lives to bring back and our own biological child are both yours? You want them both?"

That was exactly what Gu Zhihao meant, but it was a difficult thing to say out loud.

He tried to find a reasonable explanation for his thoughts, but before he could open his mouth, Shi Yuke spoke up.

"Yes, I want both!"

"Stop talking, go back to your room."

He glared at his wife, blaming her for being a chatterbox.

Everyone present was very formidable, and they couldn't afford to offend any of them. If he wanted to achieve his goal, he had to be subtle; how could he just blurt it out like a simpleton?

Shi Yuke was unconvinced: "But it's true, that's what you told me last night, and now you're blaming me! Hmph! I'm not being nice to you anymore."

She returned to the room in a huff, and Lao Qi and Nianyin were so angry they could explode.

Nianyin sneered: "No wonder you've been letting us rest these past few days, with you taking care of the children and cooking; so this was your plan all along? Put away your little schemes, and stop dreaming."

Lao Qi didn't even bother wasting words with him and snatched Yulong away in an instant.

"Son, let's go home with Mom and Dad."

"Waa—"

Yulong was stunned for a second, then opened his little mouth and wailed: "Ahhh... No, want Daddy..."

He reached out his little hands desperately, trying to find Gu Zhihao.

Gu Zhihao instinctively wanted to snatch the child back, but he was no match for Lao Qi at all; he didn't even touch the corner of his clothes.

On the other side, Nianyin quickly snatched Meiyin away from the nanny.

"You said one thing right: it's good for the two children to have company, so we are taking them both."

"No."

Gu Zhihao panicked. He knew he was no match for them, so he immediately looked for "outside help."

He begged Shi Youxuan: "Second sister, you can't just stand by and watch. Please say something fair."

Shi Youxuan: "I think this is quite fair. Let's do it this way."

After saying this, she gave her husband a wink, and the couple stood up and left.

They ignored whatever Gu Zhihao said behind them.

This man usually looked honest and reliable.

But what he did today was too underhanded. Lao Qi and Nianyin had risked their lives to bring Meiyin back from the Ji Family.

You got your biological child back, and you still want someone else's biological son, wanting both? Being a person, you are too greedy.

Such a person needs to be taught a lesson, otherwise, he will keep pushing his luck.

Shi Youxuan and her husband understood Nianyin and Lao Qi; they knew the two wouldn't hog the children forever, but were just teaching him a lesson to help him remember.

No need to interfere.

Gu Zhihao had no supporters, and his own ability was lacking, so he could only watch helplessly as they took both children away.

Sheng Family.

Lao Qi said to Wang Yinghao: "Old Madam, I'm sorry to trouble you with the children for these two days. I'll move out once I find a suitable nanny."

Wang Yinghao smiled: "What trouble? There are many children and plenty of space here. I think you don't need to move out; it's livelier when everyone lives together."

Shi Youxuan objected: "Mom, you can't spoil them. You didn't see how miserably the two children were crying just now; they looked at those two as if they were monsters. These two don't know how to take care of children at all. They should be made to take care of them more so they realize that raising a child isn't just about giving birth; there are many other things to do."

The two of them wore smiles on their faces, but they didn't agree in their hearts.

They thought to themselves, it's just raising a child, how tiring could it be?

Three days later.

The house was cleaned up, and although they hadn't found a nanny yet, the two were already impatient to move out and live on their own.

Lao Qi and Nianyin got into the car with the two children and left. Wang Yinghao stood at the door, watching the back of the car with worry: "These two don't know how to take care of children; the two kids are going to suffer with them."

Shi Youxuan smiled: "Don't worry, it's not certain who will be the one suffering. I'll bet you that they'll be bringing the children back in less than three days."

Lao Qi and Nianyin's home.

The car stopped at the entrance. Lao Qi got out and, like a gentleman, went to the other side to open the door for Nianyin: "My dear wife, we are home."

"Waa—"

Nianyin got out of the car and shouted happily: "Great! I'm finally back. Lao Qi, do you know? I often dream of this home, and dream of you."

"Come, let's go in and see. Everything is just as it was before you left; I haven't even moved the position of the teacups."

The two held hands and walked into the gate happily.

As for the two children sleeping in the car—forgotten!

"It's true! Nothing has changed at all, this is great."

The two checked the rooms one by one.

Study.

The comic book Nianyin had been reading was still face down on the table, the page still on the one she had been reading!

Gym.

It was the largest room in the Villa, equipped with all kinds of fitness equipment, and even had a large open space for boxing practice.

"I haven't practiced in a long time. Let me check if you've regressed?"

Before Nianyin finished speaking, she had already kicked out.

"Alright, you're ambushing me!"

Lao Qi, take this! The two of them started sparring, trading punches and kicks.

"Ring, ring..."

The phone rang.

Both of them heard it, but neither could be bothered to answer.

They were in the middle of a good fight; who would be calling at a time like this?

It was such a buzzkill.

But if they didn't answer, the phone just kept ringing endlessly, over and over again.

Lao Qi withdrew his stance: "Let me answer the phone first." He was afraid it might be the Chairman looking for him.

He held the mobile phone in his hand, but the name displayed on the screen wasn't the Chairman; it was Gu Zhihao.

He frowned and answered: "What do you want?"

"I'm sorry, Lao Qi. It was my fault the day before yesterday. I apologize to you and Nianyin. Please, be the bigger person and forgive my petty behavior..."

Lao Qi cut him off: "Say what you have to say directly; don't beat around the bush with me."

Gu Zhihao's voice was choked with sobs: "I beg you, I beg you, please let me see Yulong, okay? I miss him so much, I miss him so much that I can't sleep at night..."

His mind went "boom" and expanded.

Oh no, the children were left in the car.

He took off running outside, and Nianyin asked: "Where are you going?"

"The children were left in the car."

"Oh my god!"

The two of them rushed out.

"Waaah, waaah..."

"Slap, slap—"

"Open the door, open the door!"

The two children had woken up and were pounding on the car door with all their might but couldn't get out; they were crying miserably, looking indescribably pitiful.

Lao Qi ran out of the house but had forgotten to bring the keys.

Nianyin arrived right after, opened the car door, and carried the two children out.

Fortunately, the weather wasn't too hot right now, otherwise, if the children had been left in the car for this long, there was no telling what might have happened.

The two children struggled and crawled out of her arms, and an unexpected scene occurred: the two of them started running back along the road...

"Come back, home is behind you," Nianyin reminded them, but the two pretended not to hear and ran even faster on their short little legs.

They were crying and shouting as they ran: "Daddy, Mommy—"

Nianyin:...

Lao Qi:...

The two of them wondered if the children had been deprived of oxygen in the car and were hallucinating.

Their mom and dad were right behind them, so where were they running to?

They quickly ran a few steps and picked the children up.

"No, no..."

"Let go, let go, want Daddy, want Mommy, want to eat, want to play!"
