Chapter 297 Like a Fox
The next day, Qian Duoduo felt that Niannian's gaze towards her seemed a little strange.
Although they weren't very friendly to her, they weren't as hostile as before.
Shen Zicen finally opened his heart to Qian Duoduo completely, and he believed that she would not leave.
That day, because of Su Yanli's words the night before, Qian Duoduo kept pressing Niannian to ask about Shen Ziche.
"Niannian, how is your father, Ache?"
Niannian gnawed on the large chicken leg that Qian Duoduo had used to bribe her, her mouth dripping with oil.
"Yes, Father Che is very good to me."
This left Qian Duoduo speechless; she didn't know how to explain it to Niannian.
After thinking for a while, Qian Duoduo finally spoke again.
"Niannian, Mother is asking, do you think Father Che is happy?"
Niannian shook her head, recalling the last time she saw Shen Ziche.
She remembered that A-Che's father always kept his head down and ignored everyone. Even when A-Cen's father called him, he didn't look up.
Sometimes she would look up at Shen Ziche, and she didn't know how to describe it, but there were dark circles around her eyes.
Although A-Che's father would smile at her when he looked at her, she could still sense that he was unhappy.
Qian Duoduo saw that Niannian was recalling things with a serious expression, and she knew that Niannian would not lie to her.
But she can't just secretly go see Shen Ziche behind Shen Zicen's back, can she?
He was tormented if he didn't go to see him.
After hesitating for a long time, Qian Duoduo looked at Niannian, who was looking down and gnawing on a chicken head, and patted Niannian's little head.
"Niannian, would you like to go to Yingkelou for dinner?"
Niannian blinked, somewhat puzzled. Hadn't they just been there? Why were they going again?
But Niannian didn't care about going more often. If it weren't for her father-in-law's refusal, she would have wanted to eat at Yingkelou every meal.
Qian Duoduo didn't miss the joy in Niannian's eyes; a child's thoughts are written all over their face.
"Niannian, go change your clothes. I'll go call Father Acen."
Niannian went to change her clothes with a happy heart. She thought that her father and mother were very good to her, which was why they took her to Yingkelou again.
"Ah Cen, let's go eat at Yingkelou Restaurant~"
Qian Duoduo was still in the study, trying to coax Shen Zicen.
But Shen Zicen was unwilling, because Niannian was prone to indigestion from eating too much meat and fish.
But Qian Duoduo was unwilling to give up this opportunity. She leaned close to Shen Zicen's ear and whispered something.
Shen Zicen's face flushed instantly, his hands clenched tightly, and excitement flashed in his eyes.
"Duoduo, are you serious?"
Shen Zicen felt his heart was about to jump out of his chest; he couldn't wait for night to come.
Qian Duoduo nodded seriously. She knew what Shen Zicen wanted, so it was easy for her to manipulate him.
Hmph~ You little brat, don't you know me too well?
On the way to Yingkelou, Niannian felt that the two people behind her were being particularly affectionate.
Even worse than before, she was like an accident; the two men didn't pay any attention to her at all.
No, they still have feelings for her.
Sure enough, Father A-Cen is calling her again.
"Niannian, come here~"
Niannian watched the two people stop at another stall and walked back helplessly.
By this time, Niannian was already carrying quite a few things.
"This rouge is beautiful, and this bronze mirror is too..."
Shen Zicen touched this and looked at that.
"Buy them all!"
Qian Duoduo took out the money and handed it directly to the stall owner. As for the cosmetics, after they were packed up, Qian Duoduo simply tossed them to Niannian next to her.
Seeing that Niannian didn't seem to be struggling, Qian Duoduo felt relieved and handed the task over to her.
They finally arrived at Yingkelou. Along the way, they stopped whenever they encountered a vendor.
Niannian had never felt that the road back to Yingkelou was so long or so tiring.
Wang Cheng, who was standing at the door, saw that little Niannian was holding something in both hands and even had something hanging around her neck, so he quickly took the things from her hands.
She couldn't help but glare at Qian Duoduo, who dared to bully Niannian right in front of her.
Just as she was about to step forward to argue, Nian Nian grabbed Wang Cheng.
"Godmother, I'm fine."
These words brought tears to Wang Cheng's eyes; her goddaughter was so well-behaved and obedient.
That woman actually treated her like a laborer!
She couldn't take it anymore. Although she couldn't control Qian Duoduo, her boss could. She was going to write another letter tonight and send it to Kyoto as fast as she could!
As soon as Wang Cheng saw them come in, he turned and went to the kitchen.
Fortunately, they had a conscience and brought Niannian to eat with them; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to see her goddaughter.
Although her goddaughter was a laborer.
After the meal, Qian Duoduo and Shen Zicen prepared to leave.
"Niannian, you'll stay here tonight and sleep with your godmother."
Niannian looked at Qian Duoduo blankly. Of course, she knew she hadn't been abandoned, after all, she had already memorized this path.
When Wang Cheng heard that Niannian was to stay overnight at Yingkelou, he was initially happy, but then he remembered something and pulled Qian Duoduo aside.
"What are you trying to do, abandoning Niannian and leaving her alone?"
She thought Qian Duoduo didn't want the child or the employer anymore, so she became nervous.
"Just for tonight. I'll pick you up tomorrow."
Niannian was naturally happy, as she could finally have a delicious meal that evening.
Only then did Wang Cheng release his grip on Qian Duoduo's hand, startling her. She had thought her employer was about to be...
Qian Duoduo had just reached the door when, as if remembering something, she suddenly turned back.
"By the way, send the items to the escort agency."
Qian Duoduo waved as she spoke, "Thanks, Sister Wang."
Upon hearing the address "Sister Wang," Wang Cheng was so angry he almost jumped up and down.
"Who! Who told her to call her that?"
The chaos that followed had absolutely no impact on Qian Duoduo and Shen Zicen's happiness.
Qian Duoduo led Shen Zicen to an attic, and she walked up to the second floor with ease.
As soon as the people inside saw Qian Duoduo, they took out a tray.
Shen Zicen has been in a daze ever since she came in.
Until Qian Duoduo put a necklace around his neck.
The cool, refreshing touch brought Shen Zicen back to her senses.
He was familiar with this attic; the jewelry he wore when he got married was all made here.
However, he was somewhat shocked, wondering why Qian Duoduo had brought him here.
Now he knew, looking at the jade's brilliance reflected in the bronze mirror, that this piece of jade was extremely valuable.
Moreover, the exquisite carving on it depicts a little fox, and you can even see its lazy expression.
Qian Duoduo leaned close to Shen Zicen's ear and asked, "Do you like it?"
Shen Zicen glanced around shyly and realized that the person from before had already left.
He nodded, his fingers gently stroking the jade. "But why a fox?"
Qian Duoduo smiled wickedly, "Because you're like a fox, always luring my heart~"
Shen Zicen was clearly startled by Qian Duoduo's sudden remark, but he was still happy.
Duoduo means that he is still very charming.
While Shen Zicen was admiring the little fox, Qian Duoduo walked to the window and could see Feihua Pavilion not far away through the window.
There weren't many guests at the entrance of Feihua Pavilion, unlike the usual endless stream.
However, the way this attic looks is just like Shen Ziche's light and breezy style.
Based on this, Shen Ziche should be fine, right?
But Su Yanli said that, and before Qian Duoduo could figure it out, her shoulder felt heavy.
Shen Zicen rested his head on her shoulder. "What are you looking at?"
Qian Duoduo smiled but didn't say anything, only patted the back of his hand.
