Chapter 1034 (1/2)
Chapter 173 - You're Dad
Looking at Qin Shujie's gentle face as she changed his shoes, Ji Feng felt an inexplicable sense of warmth in his heart. He even had the misconception that the woman squatting in front of him was a family member who had lived with him for many years …
”Sit on the sofa.” Qin Shujie put the shoes away for Ji Feng. She could not help but smile gently. ”What do you want to drink?”
Only then did Ji Feng regain his senses. He coughed lightly and laughed, ”Bai Kaishui is great.”
”Have some tea.” Qin Shujie said softly, ”Concentrate your tea to refresh your spirit. You still need to drive at night, so you have to stay awake.”
Ji Feng nodded with a smile, ”Fine, thank you very much.”
Actually, there was no point for Ji Feng to not be alert. Even if he had to work continuously for several days and nights, he wouldn't feel any discomfort, and his spirit would still be in good shape.
While Qin Shujie was pouring the tea, Ji Feng looked around.
He discovered that Qin Shujie's house wasn't very big. It was just a simple three-bedroom apartment, but it was very warm and comfortable. Especially the walls, the sofa, and the tea table, there would be cartoon images appearing from time to time.
Moreover, Qin Shujie clearly doted on her daughter a lot. This was a warm little world for her and her daughter.
Ji Feng's gaze landed on the door of the kitchen. Through the frosted gla.s.s, he could see that there was light in the kitchen and there seemed to be some movement. There should be someone inside.
He could not help but be stunned. There was someone else in Qin Shujie's house?
”Creaaaak.” A soft sound rang out, and immediately after, the kitchen door was opened and a middle-aged woman came out. She was slightly surprised and immediately became alert when she saw Ji Feng sitting on the sofa.
”Sir, who, who are you?” The middle-aged woman asked vigilantly.
”Mrs Zhang, this is my friend.” Qin Shujie walked over from the restaurant and asked with a smile, ”Mrs Zhang, is Yao Yao asleep?”
”She's asleep. I just cooked a supper for Yao Yao. It's still hot in the pot. When she wakes up in the middle of the night she can eat it.” The middle-aged woman called Mrs Zhang said.
”Mom Zhang, it's been hard on you. It's getting late, so you should go rest.”
Qin Shujie said softly, ”I'll take care of Yaoyao later.”
”Alright then.” Zhang Ma nodded and greeted Ji Feng before heading to the guest room to rest.
Qin Shujie brought two cups of tea to the living room and placed one cup in front of Ji Feng. Then she explained with a smile, ”Mrs Zhang is the babysitter of our family. She came from the countryside, and is a good person. Usually when I'm busy at work, Mama Zhang will take care of Yaoyao! ”
”Finding a good nanny is really very important for a child.” Ji Feng nodded with a smile. He had also heard that some nannies had bad intentions, especially when their children were making trouble. When the nannies got impatient, they could do anything they wanted.
It was like how a babysitter mistreated and even accidentally killed a child. It was not something that was lacking.
In particular, some infants could not speak and their parents would not know if they were abused.
Therefore, generally speaking, households that hire nannies will try their best to find rural women to be their nannies. This is because, in comparison, rural people are very kind, and the number of bad people is relatively few.
”Strictly speaking, it's better to have a child by one's parents' side. Who can love their child more than their parents?” Qin Shujie helplessly shook her head, ”Unfortunately, my job is really too busy. I rarely have the time to take care of Yao Yao. Fortunately, Mrs Zhang is a very good person …”
Qin Shujie's voice was filled with apology.
Ji Feng nodded his head and said, ”Money is not enough. If you have the time, why should you accompany your child? You earn so much money, but in the end, didn't you leave her with a good foundation?”
”That's true...” Qin Shujie nodded and smiled, ”Ji Feng, you seem to be very experienced.”
In the past, my mother was very poor, and if she wanted to make money to support me, she had to help me go to school. But no matter how busy she was, she would always find time to chat with me, and when I was young, she would play games with me.
Qin Shujie nodded her head lightly. She had never heard Ji Feng mention these things, but she never thought that Ji Feng would have such a past.
”Oh right, how old is Yao Yao now?” Ji Feng suddenly asked.
”I'll be four years old after the new year.” Qin Shujie said.
”In other words, he's three and a half years old...” Ji Feng lightly nodded his head as he laughed, ”At her age, she's actually the one who pestered her parents the most. I'd like to spend more time with her.”
Qin Shujie almost blurted out, ”It's a pity Yao Yao only has a mother, and no father …”
However, she still didn't say these words out loud, and could only nod her head.
”Mommy ~ ~” At this moment, a weak voice called out to her. Qin Shujie immediately stood up and apologetically said to Ji Feng, ”My daughter is awake. I'll go take a look.”
Ji Feng stood up as well. Then, a small Xiao Budian walked out from the bedroom. This little girl was wearing a flowery pajamas with a pair of cartoon slippers on her feet. What made people uncontrollably smile was that her slippers were worn on her left shoe and her right foot. Her pajamas were also wrinkled.
The girl rubbed her eyes and walked out shakily with her mouth pouting. Her eyes were hazy and she looked extremely cute.
Ji Feng couldn't help but laugh. This little girl was really lovable.
Qin Shujie quickly carried her daughter up and kissed her twice. ”Yaoyao, are you hungry?”
The little girl shook her head and mumbled, ”I saw dad. He said he wanted to take me to the zoo, but he suddenly disappeared again …”
