Was He Picked Up?

After Lu Youqi's call had been rudely ended, she stared at her phone screen and muttered, "What's there to be proud of..."

She cursed Lei Tingye in her heart, but the content of the text message she sent was very positive: Brother, go for it! I wish you happiness!

There was still the second half of the sentence that she did not say. If Yunsha became her sister-in-law, she wanted Yunsha to set up a bridge which would allow her to get to know Ci Yanfeng.

Lei Tingye ignored Lu Youqi's text message.

Lu Youqi waited for a while but did not get anything in response. She cursed in her heart, "What are you trying to pull? You've always had a poker face since you were young. You don't even smile. You deserve to be single forever. Forget it, I still need to rely on him for this matter. I just need to coax him a little."

Lei Tingye did not know that his cousin was silently scolding him. Even if he knew, he did not care. He was staring at his phone, looking at Yunsha's reply to him:

Yes, yes, I know!

The exclamation mark seemed to be a little enthusiastic, but Lei Tingye could still see the perfunctory tone in these words.

If it were in the past, if he sent a message, Yunsha would reply ten sentences long, and each sentence was not the same, and the number of words would definitely be more than what he had sent.

But now...

The number of words she replied was not even half of what he sent.

Lei Tingye recalled that in the past, when Yunsha was in a bad mood, she did not say much, but after two days, she could not help but send him a flood of messages.

"So, right now... She's in a bad mood?" Lei Tingye thought suspiciously. He originally wanted to ask what was wrong with Yunsha, but he was afraid that she would get his intentions wrong and proceed to talk endlessly.

It was better not to ask.

Lei Tingye put away his phone.

His roommate walked over and patted his shoulder, asking, "Playing ball, are you coming?"

...

At the villa.

Huaili obediently followed Yunsha, walking beside her. He behaved and did not ask for a hug.

When the housekeeper saw Huaili, the first thought that came to his mind was that he was cute, but it was immediately followed by vigilance. He asked as if he was facing a stray, "This child was not picked up by the roadside, right?"

A long time ago, Mr. Ci had met a child squatting by the roadside.

At that time, Mrs. Ci had just given birth to her eldest son, Ci Yanfeng. During that time, Mr. Ci, who was full of fatherly love, always had a special care for the child they found, even if the child was not from his family.

He saw that the child was squatting alone by the roadside looking very pitiful, so he walked over and asked, "Little friend, where is your family?"

"I left with them but got lost."

"Do you remember your home address, or the name of your family?"

"The name," the child thought for a moment and said, "Li..."

Then he shook his head in distress. "I can't remember clearly. I'm so hungry."

Mr. Ci had no choice but to take him back to eat first. He planned to send him to the police station after he was full.

After the meal, Mr. Ci went back to the study to take a call. When he came out again, he could not find the child anywhere.

Mr. Ci sent many people to look for him in the mountains, but they could not find him.

He asked the security guard at the foot of the mountain, but the security guard said that he did not see any child leave.

Later, Mr. Ci even posted a missing persons notice and even reported it to the police, but they came up with nothing.

This incident had left a psychological scar on the butler, which was why he was so nervous when he saw Huaili.

"I wasn't picked up from the streets!"

Huaili raised his head and spoke clearly. He said seriously, "My family has already agreed to let me come and play with sister."

The butler nodded. Then he had to keep an eye on him, he could not let this child run away, or else the child's family would definitely come looking for trouble.

The butler decided in his heart that he must always keep an eye on him. He could not let him disappear from his sight.

Fang Huaili raised his head and looked at the butler. He frowned and reached out to touch his face. He was extremely confused.

He was a cute kid, right?

Then why did it feel like neither Ci Yanfeng nor the butler were happy with his arrival?
