Chapter 1192: Chapter 1191: Willful and Playful
Ye Qiu knew that with Li Fei’s death, as Xia Tiantian’s father, Xia Tiantian would eventually find out, but Ye Qiu felt it wasn’t good to tell her so soon.
To avoid arousing suspicion from the babysitter and Xia Tiantian, Ye Qiu and Xia Lan quickly came out of the study room.
While Xia Lan and Ye Qiu were sitting on the living room sofa chatting about Xia Tiantian’s usual study situation, Ling Fei was in the room tutoring Xia Tiantian with her homework.
However, Xia Tiantian was inattentive, always looking around distractedly.
Seeing this, even with patience, Ling Fei didn’t know how to teach her.
When Ling Fei came out of the room, she looked at Ye Qiu and said, "Tiantian is inattentive; you’d better teach her."
Now that Ye Qiu understood Xia Tiantian’s situation, he felt somewhat sorry for her.
Although she was mischievous and playful and didn’t want to study, Ye Qiu felt he should teach her well.
"She wants to go out and play, so take her out to play then!"
"But, but Miss Xia invited us here to tutor her."
Ling Fei said with some embarrassment.
"No problem, just help me take care of Tiantian."
Seeing Ye Qiu, Xia Lan was very confident knowing that with Ye Qiu around, she wouldn’t have to worry so much about Tiantian anymore.
After all, Ye Qiu had helped her a lot in the past.
Ling Fei was very surprised; she didn’t expect Xia Tiantian’s mother to trust Ye Qiu so much, nor did she know what Ye Qiu and Xia Lan had just talked about.
"Mom, great, I want to go out and play."
Xia Tiantian walked over, giving Ye Qiu a triumphant look.
"Then let’s go!"
Ye Qiu knew he had to let Xia Tiantian play to her heart’s content, so she would be able to settle down and focus on studying.
Clearly, her current state, with no one to play with at school and still having to attend tutoring sessions after class, was why she was like this.
Now Ye Qiu, Ling Fei, and Xia Tiantian came downstairs and got into Ye Qiu’s car, and Ling Fei asked, "Where are we going to play?"
"I want to go to the mall, I want lots of yummy snacks."
Although Ling Fei’s family was wealthy and she didn’t lack anything, Xia Lan always forbade her from eating snacks.
However, at school, she didn’t feel right asking other classmates for snacks.
"Then let’s go to the supermarket!"
Ye Qiu drove towards a nearby large shopping mall, which generally had its own large supermarket.
Upon arriving at the mall’s parking lot, Ye Qiu parked the car, and the two girls got out.
Xia Tiantian immediately pulled Ling Fei towards the large supermarket upstairs, and Ye Qiu followed. Inside the supermarket’s snack section, Ling Fei pulled a cart and kept choosing her snacks.
Ye Qiu watched as she picked one large bag. These were her favorite snacks, but Xia Lan usually didn’t let her eat them, thinking they were not nutritious, so she typically ate fruit at home.
She also bought some fun things.
Moreover, Xia Tiantian had her own bank card, which her father gave her. Her New Year’s money and such were in it.
When Xia Tiantian swiped her card for payment, the balance still showed seven figures, making Ling Fei realize that Xia Tiantian’s family was truly wealthy.
"Sister Ling, what do you want to eat?"
Ordinarily, girls love eating snacks, and it was the same in Ling Fei’s dormitory.
However, Ling Fei, like many regular girls, didn’t have much money to buy so many snacks to eat.
"Tiantian, you eat, sister won’t eat."
Xia Tiantian glanced at Ye Qiu, then had him carry the large bag of snacks as they headed towards the amusement park in the large mall.
There were many amusement park rides like the merry-go-round.
Xia Tiantian hadn’t played here much before; mainly, Li Fei was too busy to bring her out, and previously Xia Lan also stayed at home.
Under these circumstances, with Xia Tiantian having no friends, how could she come to play these games?
"Sister Ling, let’s go play."
When Xia Tiantian and Ling Fei went to buy merry-go-round tickets, Ye Qiu watched from the side.
It was past ten in the evening when Ye Qiu’s phone rang; it was Xia Lan calling to ask, "Ye Qiu, where are you guys?"
"At the amusement park; maybe you haven’t spent enough time taking Tiantian out to play."
"Sigh, I don’t know what to say."
Ye Qiu walked to another side to chat with Xia Lan, mentioning the company’s situation.
With Jiang Xiyue, the secretary, helping, Xia Lan didn’t have much to worry about.
But Ye Qiu knew that sooner or later Jiang Xiyue would leave, so Xia Lan still had to slowly become a capable woman herself.
"That Secretary Jiang is excellent, doing well in all aspects. Where did you find her?"
Xia Lan said.
"Really? I spent five million to get her; now she’s my personal possession."
"Five million? Personal possession?"
Xia Lan was somewhat puzzled.
However, she didn’t ask much more.
After chatting with Xia Lan for a while, Ye Qiu looked at the time; it was time to send Xia Tiantian home.
But now Xia Tiantian wasn’t done playing and didn’t want to go back yet.
"Mr. Ye, I still want to play."
"Let’s head back; it’s so late, and I have things to do."
Ye Qiu still needed to cultivate and didn’t have much time to accompany Xia Tiantian in play. Besides, Xia Tiantian and Ling Fei had classes tomorrow and surely needed to rest early.
"I want to go to the bar and play."
The bar?
Ling Fei definitely wouldn’t agree, as bars are too chaotic, and Xia Tiantian was still a minor. Entering bars was certainly unsuitable.
So, Ling Fei also didn’t approve and couldn’t teach Xia Tiantian bad habits.
"Tiantian, bars are chaotic, and you’re still underage; it’s not the place for you. You can go when you’re grown up in the future."
"Sister Ling, I want to go."
Xia Tiantian pouted and said.
Ye Qiu walked towards the parking area, ignoring Xia Tiantian. No matter how willful she was, she couldn’t insist on doing whatever she pleased.
Seeing Ye Qiu leave, Ling Fei could only pull Xia Tiantian to follow Ye Qiu.
The previously very happy Xia Tiantian now became sullen.
When they got into the car, Ye Qiu deliberately said coldly, "We are just your tutors, not your parents. It’s not like whatever you want, we grant it, got it?"
"I."
Suddenly, Xia Tiantian started crying.
Ling Fei could only comfort her, "Tiantian, Ye Qiu is doing this for your own good. Think about how chaotic bars are; if something happened there, we couldn’t be responsible. Besides, neither Ye Qiu nor I dare go to bars."
Xia Tiantian stopped crying but appeared very angry.
Ye Qiu drove back towards Xia Tiantian’s residential area. When they arrived at the gate of her community, Ye Qiu parked the car and asked Xia Tiantian to take the bag of snacks and take the elevator up.
Xia Tiantian could only get out of the car, but she didn’t even take the bag of snacks. Ling Fei had to follow and escort her upstairs, before taking the elevator back down.
