Near seven in the evening, Lin Jie returned to Xiangtai Apartment and was surprised to find Ye Hongqing and his family of three there.
Before Lin Jie could greet them, Yuanyuan stretched her little legs, raised her arms and ran over.
Lin Jie hurriedly bent down to pick her up, only to see her eyes full of tears.
"What's wrong? Did you get scolded for being naughty, or did you just miss me?" he asked softly.
Yuanyuan reached out to touch Lin Jie's face and sobbed, "Uncle, they said mom is dead and will never come back, is it true?"
Upon hearing these words, Lin Jie's face turned grim, his gaze like knives sweeping towards Ye Hongqing, Shen Hui, and Ye Chen.
"A-Jie, don't get angry, it's not what you think!"
Zhang Xiaoxiao hurriedly explained: "In the evening, Ye Chen took Kemeng, Nannan, and Yuanyuan to Binhai Park and ran into some obnoxious people. Those words were spoken by that person, not by Ye Chen or the others."
"Uncle, that's how it was."
