Chapter 323 Hidden
However, when I picked up the phone, a note also came out along with it.
Dong Pingting didn't look at the note. She looked at the incoming call on the screen and said, "Cousin, it's your husband calling."
Upon hearing the words "brother-in-law," Qin Dongyu's face instantly softened into a gentle smile: "Take it, put the phone to my ear."
"Ok."
Dong Pingting swiped to answer the call, then held the phone to Qin Dongyu's ear, and as she did so, she removed the note that was attached to the phone.
Soon, Qin Dongyu spoke with Wenren Wen, while Dong Pingting checked the road conditions ahead.
The little girl knew it was her father calling. She stopped playing with her toys and stared intently at the phone pressed against Qin Dongyu's ear, her eyes sparkling.
"We picked her up. Pingting and I went to pick up Ruanruan together, and we're on our way home now."
"..."
"No, I'm driving."
"..."
"No, I didn't have my phone with me. Pingting was the one holding the phone while I listened to you."
"..." "Okay, no rush, come back slowly, we'll wait for you to come back for dinner."
"..."
A short while later, after only a few words, Qin Dongyu said to Dong Pingting, "Okay, let's hang up."
"Okay, cousin."
Dong Pingting took her phone and hung up.
Just then, the little girl, who had been staring at her phone, spoke up: "Mommy, is that Daddy on the phone?"
Qin Dongyu looked at her little girl in the rearview mirror and smiled, "Yes, it's Daddy. Daddy has gotten off the plane and arrived at the airport. He'll be home in an hour and we'll have dinner together."
Wenren Wen is away on a business trip; she just got off the plane.
Upon hearing that Wenren Wen was coming back, the little girl immediately exclaimed "Yay!" and happily swayed from side to side in her seat: "Daddy is finally coming back! Ruanruan hasn't seen Daddy for days, Ruanruan misses Daddy so much."
Wenren Wen is very patient with children. Whenever he's not busy, he plays with his little girl, and she loves her father very much.
Seeing his daughter's happy little face, Qin Dongyu smiled and said, "Daddy missed Ruan Ruan very much, so I rushed back to see her."
"Yes! Daddy loves Ruan Ruan, and Ruan Ruan loves Daddy too!"
Hearing the little girl's words, Qin Dongyu raised an eyebrow: "You only love your father?"
The little girl sat up straight instantly and said very cleverly, "No! Ruan Ruan loves Daddy and Mommy too!"
"Both Mom and Dad love it!"
This little thing.
Qin Dongyu talked to the little girl while keeping his eyes on the road ahead, driving steadily.
They lived in a villa area, so there were fewer cars on this side after they turned a corner. She looked at the scenery ahead and soon they arrived.
The villa area is not far from the school, about a 20-minute drive.
"Cousin, I accidentally took out a piece of paper when I picked up my phone. Is this piece of paper important?"
Dong Pingting hadn't said anything because she had taken off her phone to hang up and was about to put the note and her phone back into the storage box on the armrest.
However, she inadvertently noticed the address on the note.
Good City, Hotel.
Good city.
She remembered that this city was extremely far from Yunzhou City, and had absolutely no connection with the Qin family, the Dong family, or the Wen family.
Normally, she wouldn't have paid any attention to a note like this.
They won't ask.
I certainly won't go see it.
But one day before, she asked her cousin how the medicine for her sprained back that she had asked the doctor about was working for Sheng Mingying, and her cousin said that Sheng Mingying had gone on a trip.
And the tourist destination is Shancheng.
Upon hearing Dong Pingting's words, Qin Dongyu looked at the note in her hand and saw the address on it. Only then did he remember that he had left the note in the car after writing down the address last time.
She said, "Oh, this is the address of the hotel in Shancheng where my parents stayed before. I sent the medicine there. We don't need it anymore, so just throw it away."
"Mom and Dad came back today too."
Upon hearing her say she threw it away, Dong Pingting's expression changed, and she said, "Okay."
She put her phone back in the storage compartment, took the note, sat back down in her seat, and said, "I'll throw it away after I get off the bus."
After saying that, she put the note in her bag and asked, "Aunt and Uncle are returning to Yunzhou City today?"
"Yes, my parents also had a long trip this time. They traveled around Shancheng, saw many scenic spots, and caught up with old friends. My parents had a great time."
Qin Dongyu seemed oblivious to the probing in Dong Pingting's words, and smiled as usual.
Dong Pingting smiled and said, "You should have a good time. Every city has its own scenery. Going out and seeing more of the world is good for your uncle and aunt."
"That's right. This time, Xiao Liu asked his parents to go to Shancheng. Otherwise, his parents might not have gone."
"There must be some unique scenery in Shancheng."
Qin Dongyu looked at Dong Pingting in the rearview mirror and said, as she spoke, she turned the steering wheel and drove into the villa area.
Dong Pingting's eyes flickered, and then she said, "I didn't expect that Sixth Young Master would take the initiative to arrange for Uncle and Aunt to go on a trip. He usually doesn't talk much and has a cold expression. He doesn't seem like the kind of person who would do such a thing."
"Yes, we were surprised too."
"Xiao Liu has never taken the initiative to arrange a trip for her parents before. This is the first time. When everyone has nothing to do, they say in the group that Xiao Liu has finally figured things out."
"However, it's also possible that she's finally come to her senses. After all, having a son makes all the difference."
Qin Dongyu seemed oblivious to Dong Pingting's changing expression, speaking in a very ordinary manner.
Dong Pingting listened to her words with a gentle smile: "Being a father makes a difference."
As the two talked, the car drove into the villa area.
The little girl, who was playing nearby, heard the two talking and realized that her grandparents were coming back. Her eyes lit up and she immediately asked, "Mommy, is little brother Yuyu coming back too?"
Qin Dongyu told the little girl about Sheng Mingying and Wenren Teng's trip to Shancheng, and that Wenren Yu was also in Shancheng.
Otherwise, the little girl would want to go see her little brother, and go play with Yu Yu.
Hearing the little girl's excited words, Qin Dongyu smiled and said, "Of course."
"Grandpa and Grandma are back, so naturally little Yuyu is back too."
"And your uncle is back too, they're all back."
The little girl's face immediately lit up with a smile, and she excitedly asked, "Really?"
"Yu Yu's little brother, uncle, grandpa, and grandma are all back?"
"Of course it's true, they've all come back."
"However, they will probably arrive in Yunzhou City tonight. You can't go today. They will be very tired after just returning. Go in a couple of days."
"Yes! Ruanruan wants to go see Yuyu and play with him."
"Mom will take you in a couple of days, or your dad will take you."
"okay!"
The little girl readily agreed, clearly delighted.
Dong Pingting listened to the mother and daughter's conversation from the side, her eyes constantly flashing with different expressions.
Why did they all go to Shancheng?
At that moment, she tightened her grip on the bag, and a shadow of gloom appeared in her eyes.
