Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
As soon as Shi Yaoqing got into the car and closed the door, he looked at the rearview mirror and was immediately shocked by a small cradle in the car.
“All!” Shi Yaoqing exclaimed.
“Shh!” Gu Qingming put her finger to her lips and said softly, “Little Orange is asleep. Don’t wake her up!”
Shi Yaoqing immediately whispered, “Sister, why did you bring the child out? Didn’t Grandma Shi forbid us from bringing her out?”
Gu Qingming blinked at him and said, “I secretly brought her out!”
Shi Yaoqing suddenly felt like he was going to have a heart attack.
He touched his chest and said softly, “Sister, don’t scare me like this. The weather is so hot. Why did you bring the child out? The child may get heatstroke.”
Gu Qingming smiled and said, “Don’t worry, she won’t.”
Shi Yaoqing said worriedly, “If you bring the child out, what will Grandma Shi do? If she finds out that you secretly brought the child out, I’m afraid she’ll twist my ear off!”
Everyone doted on Gu Qingming. Even though everyone knew that Gu Qingming was the one who brought the child out, Grandma Shi would vent her anger on him.
After all, he would be seen as being in cahoots with Gu Qingming.
Gu Qingming covered her mouth and smiled. “Third Brother, don’t worry. When we hand Little Orange to Grandma Shi, she will definitely not be angry.”
When Shi Yaoqing heard this, he smiled bitterly and said, “1 hope so!”
Gu Qingming hugged Little Orange and urged, “Third Brother, drive quickly. Otherwise, if we’re discovered, we won’t be able to leave.”
Shi Yaoqing nodded and said, “Alright, let’s go. Carry Little Orange well and don’t let her feel any bumps.”
Gu Qingming tidied up again, hugged Little Orange, and nodded. “Let’s go!”
As soon as Shi Yaoqing drove the car away, his grandmother chased after him.
She looked at the boot of the car and shouted angrily and worriedly, “Gu Qingming, come back! How can you carry the child with you!”
With her grandmother’s shout, everyone knew that Gu Qingming had secretly taken the child away.
When Shi Lichun and the others came out, Grandma Shi immediately said, “Shi Lidong, call Shi Yaoqing immediately and ask them to send the child back quickly. They’re going on a long trip and not to play. Moreover, the weather is unpredictable. What if the child gets sick?”
Shi Lidong took out his phone and comforted her. “Mom, don’t worry. Although the weather is hot, it’s not the hottest. They and the child will either be in the car or in an air-conditioned house. They’ll pay attention.”
Grandma Shi was even more worried. “That’s what’s even more worrying! This child fluctuates between cold and hot. If we re not careful, the child might catch a cold.”
Be it Shi Yaoqing or Gu Qingming, they were not people who knew how to take care of children.
That was exactly what her grandmother was worried about.
Third Aunt scolded, “Why is this young brat also messing around? When he comes back, I’ll twist his ears off!”
Third Uncle smiled and said, “Yes, I support you! This young brat is really too reckless. Sister brought the child out and he didn’t stop her from fooling around. It’s good that Little Orange is healthy. But what if…”
“Pfft, pfft, pfft. What’s there to be afraid of? Little Orange will definitely return safely.”
“Yes, she’ll definitely come back safely!” Shi Lidong patted his face and said, “I’ll call them now and ask them to return her quickly!”
Grandma Shi said in amusement, “Alright. Since Mingming is going out, she should be able to protect Little Orange well!”
“Why is this child thinking of bringing the Little Orange out? The weather is changing now. I wonder if she has prepared what the child needs!”
“1 checked. She even brought milk bottles, milk powder, clothes, and diapers. It seems that this child was prepared to take Little Orange out,” Aunt said in amusement. “It seems that she can’t bear to part with the child when she goes out. That’s why she brought the child out.”
“This child is a child herself. She doesn’t know how to take good care of herself. Now that she has an even younger child with her, nothing must happen to them,” Grandma Shi said worriedly.
“Mom, I think you’re just worrying for nothing,” Second Aunt said with a smile. “Mingming is very good at taking care of children now.”
At least she knew how to change the baby’s diapers, make formula milk, change her clothes, and bathe her.
Actually, no one knew that Gu Qingming was so at ease to bring the child out because the child’s physique was good and she would not fall sick.
Little Orange woke up after sleeping for two hours in her mother’s arms.
The moment she woke up and saw herself in her dearest mother’s arms, she grinned happily and made clucking sounds.
When Shi Yaoqing heard her innocent laughter, he said in amusement, “Little Orange, you’re so happy!”
Little Orange mumbled as if responding to Third Uncle’s words.
When Gu Qingming saw Little Orange’s innocent smile and heard her giggle, her heart almost softened.
This cute little packrat was her daughter.
The child that she had lost before she could even take a look was now in her arms, smiling at her.
She had no regrets in this life!
