Chapter 771: He Still Hasn’t Come Back...
He shouldn’t have.
He had vanished for an entire night, and she hadn’t received a call, not even a message.
The light in Qin Nanyu’s eyes dimmed, and the aura surrounding him became indifferent.
He got back into his car, started it, and drove away.
At Nanpo Apartment.
Ji Weitian sat on the edge of the bed, holding a storybook, and lulling the two Little Glutinous Rice Dumplings to sleep.
Since Yaoyao got a brother, she finally stopped being as nagging as before, or rather, her nagging shifted from Mommy to her brother.
Ruirui, finally having a mother, didn’t care about how high his intelligence was; his favorite thing to do each day was to cling to Ji Weitian, listening to her tell those childish fairy tales.
As long as the stories were told by Mommy, he loved to listen.
Ji Weitian read on and on until she spaced out. When she paused, she realized that the two Little Glutinous Rice Dumplings beside her had already fallen asleep.
Nanpo Apartment couldn’t compare to Qin Family Villa.
It was a bit small here; when it was just Yaoyao, they could barely manage.
Now with Ruirui added, the siblings had to share a room.
Ji Weitian was originally concerned that Yaoyao, with her poor sleeping posture, would not accept having a brother taking up half of her bed, but unexpectedly, the siblings got along very affectionately.
Except for the occasional times when Ruirui would be kicked out of bed by his sister.
Most of the time, they got along harmoniously.
Especially when they had just fallen asleep—the inertia from when they were twins in the womb seemed to extend to now; the siblings were drawn to each other, would wrap their arms around one another in their sleep.
Just like they were still in Mommy’s belly, curled up together.
When Ji Weitian put down the storybook, what she saw was this warm scene before her.
She subconsciously quieted her movements, gently turned around, and lowered her head to lightly kiss each of their faces.
Just as she lifted her head, she heard Ruirui mutter, "Mommy~"
His soft voice carried a hint of unease, as if he feared she would disappear.
Ji Weitian took his hand and responded. The little guy quickly relaxed and fell back asleep.
Meanwhile, the little Glutinous Rice Dumpling by his side seemed to sense something and murmured as well.
But she didn’t call for Ji Weitian; she called for Qin Nanyu.
With a milky voice, she called out "Daddy," with a sense of longing.
The soft and glutinous voice also reminded Ji Weitian of something. She turned to look outside the children’s room and realized that the living room was still quiet.
Qin Nanyu had not yet returned.
Ji Weitian tucked the Little Glutinous Rice Dumplings in, left the room, and stood alone in the living room for a long time.
What appeared before her was the recollection of Qin Nanyu leaving the laboratory today without a word...
He was angry.
She could feel it.
But she didn’t quite understand why he was angry.
She had already told him that she and Leng Jian were just friends, and she had even tried to placate him.
The fact that Lu Jing was investigating Dr. CC behind the scenes and used Leng Jian to obtain a series of small programs from her was something she had not anticipated at all.
The current situation was as if she were helping Lu Jing against Qin Technology Group.
She had no idea how to explain this to Qin Nanyu.
More importantly, the identity of Dr. CC was tied to more than just herself...
Ji Weitian snapped back to reality and sent a message to Leng Jian, telling him about giving her contact information to Zhang Lingying.
While she wished for Leng Jian to find his happiness, it was one thing; giving out her contact details to someone else without his permission was another—she at least owed him a courtesy call.
