Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories

Chapter 529: Daddy’s Not Here, Follow Me

Shen Qianshu was reminded of that strange castle. Her heart still ached, and she wished that she could return to the past and hug that helpless, fearful, and desperate little boy. She wished she could give him a warm kiss and tell him, Don’t give up. Just wait until you grow up.

You will meet me.

I will protect you!

But she also remembered Ye Ling had protected Tong Hua and her during the time of danger. She was so helpless, and all she could do was run with Tong Hua. Shen Qianshu’s heart ached, and she felt full of remorse. She knew that even if she could do this all over again, she would still only have been able to bring Tong Hua along and escape.

Zhong Ran spoke a lot, and his mood was rather heavy. “Miss Shen, Young Master, please do not mention these things around Master. He hates it. If he hears about it, he will... explode.”

That was a scar that no one dared to mention.

Even Luther had never mentioned it before.

“I got it.” Shen Qianshu replied.

Shen Qianshu picked herself up. There was no way she could return to twenty odd years ago, and she had no idea what exactly had happened back then either. Ye Ling’s mother was a pitiful woman, but the most innocent one was Ye Ling. He had never done anything wrong, but he could not choose his living environment from birth, and he had to experience all of those tragedies.

Tong Hua asked, “Did Ye Yifan’s mother not treat daddy well?”

“Why would she treat him well!” Zhong Ran took a deep breath. “She was forced to acknowledge Master as her son. When the Old Master was still alive, his words were orders. No one dared to disobey him, and no one could. Acknowledging Master would benefit her in many ways. In the end, most of Madam’s inheritance was distributed to the European Ye Family. Those that were left over were just fixed inheritance like the properties all of you have seen.”

Shen Qianshu looked out of the window with heavy eyes. “Let’s not talk about the past first. Who captured Master? What do they want? Do you have any plans?”

Zhong Ran said, “As of now, we don’t. However, Miss Shen and Young Master, I have already prepared an airplane. You and Young Master will be leaving Johannesburg soon. I...”

“I’m not leaving.” She had ditched Ye Ling once, and she would definitely not do that again.

“Master ordered. As long as he’s not around you, you have to return.”

“I’m not leaving!” Shen Qianshu was really persistent. “Just send Tong Hua back.”

“NO!” Tong Hua hugged Shen Qianshu’s arm immediately. “Mommy, we can’t leave.”

It would hurt them to ditch Ye Ling at a time like this. No matter what Ye Ling ordered, she would not leave him alone in times of danger. Seeing their reactions, Zhong Ran found it hard to take any action. “Miss Shen, Young Master, please don’t make things difficult for me.”

“I want to make things difficult for you!” Tong Hua said without hesitation. He was extremely domineering. “Daddy’s not here. Follow me!”

Zhong Ran was speechless.

Young Master, it would be so great if you were Master’s biological son.

This temper... Really... Similar dominance and similar... persistence.

They reached a secluded courtyard that was different from the original place where they stayed. There were people everywhere inside and outside, but they were in a new place. Ah Da was still unconscious and was connected to a drip. Zhong Ran was the one giving out all the orders.

“Right, where’s that diamond?” Shen Qianshu suddenly asked. The group of people who came after Ye Ling must have either wanted his life or have been greedy for loot. Since they could not find Ye Ling’s corpse, it meant that he was still alive. He was most valuable alive.

“On the way from the mountain to the company, we were robbed of it.”

Tong Hua squinted and tried to link everything together. He was like a young owner. “Someone must have led daddy to Johannesburg on purpose!”
