Little Cui's mother felt that it was really weird that being a man Ye Qian was apologizing before even her saying anything, usually men would be aloof when they were facing some women, be it related or not.
And here this young man was clearly not sticking to the norms and didn't seem to be like others.
This only made her look up towards Ye Qian as the respect in her heart increased for him.
She had known a bit of Little Qiqi and her mother from her daughter and really felt bad for the small family, and now that the father who had lost for so long had been back, it really made her feel happy for the pair of mother and daughter.
That was also why she always made Little Cui be close to Little Qiqi and often be close to her.
Sometimes she even gave a lot of food in her tiffing and told her daughter to share with Little Qiqi.
She was even sure that it was not only her who did such things, and there were even a few other mothers who did the same as her and this only made her feel happy.
Not only did they help Little Qiqi and her mother this way, but also let the little girl not be alone and hurt due to this.
"Alright, Cuicui, we should leave, say goodbye to Qiqi and uncle Ye."
"Bye bye Qiqi, uncle Ye and Xiao Ya."
The little girl waved her hand at the two little ones and then did a light bow to Ye Qian.
Seeing her doing such, Ye Qian gently smiled and also said goodbye.
Soon the pair of mother and daughter also left.
"Alright, let's go."
"Yes, Papa."
Little Qiqi exclaimed as she pecked Ye Qian's cheek and said in a coquettish manner.
"Papa, Qiqi wants to eat sweet and sour ribs."
"Of course, of course, we will buy it on the way, there is a store here right?"
Of course, Ye Qian would not say no to his little daughter asking him for something to eat right.
He exclaimed and then walked towards the store which he could see was just a few hundred steps away from their current position.
It was just that it was also on the opposite side of the road which lead to their home.
"Yes yes, Papa, Aunt Jiao brought the Sweet and Sour Ribs from that store that day, there is the same name on the store."
Little Qiqi was like a chick pecking on rice as soon as she heard Ye Qian agree to her request.
"Ohh alright, I remember that it was indeed very tasty."
Ye Qian said while pondering over for a moment as he walked towards the direction of the store.
He didn't think further since Little Qiqi's sight was much more enhanced and she could clearly see the shop board which was roughly a hundred feet away.
"Hehe, Papa is a lier. When did Papa taste the ribs, it was Qiqi who ate it all that day, remember?"
Little Qiqi shook her head with pursed lips and said with a giggle.
"Ohh yes."
"But I did taste the sauce and I know that it was indeed delicious."
Ye Qian smiled wryly after being caught redhanded and spitted out an excuse that the little girl easily accepted.
"Hehe, Papa is lying again, how can you taste the cause if Qiqi licked all of the sauce from the packets as well."
This time the little girl seemed to have accepted but as soon as Ye Qian took a few more steps, he was forced to stop as he stumbled.
"You are very smart huh, there was some sauce left on ur cheeks after you were sleeping like a pig after eating the ribs."
With a smug, Ye Qian then continued.
"That was also when I kissed ur cheek."
"So I tasted the little bit of sauce."
"PUFF"
Little Qiqi puffed up her cheeks and pouted in annoyance.
"Papa, Qiqi is not a pig, if Qiqi is a Pig then you are also a Papa Pig."
She said while crossing her hands and looking away from him.
"Haha, it's fine for me to be big, but do you really want to be a pig?"
Ye Qian laughed out not knowing if he should laugh or cry.
The little girl really looked adorable when she was like this, now he really felt that it was indeed a good thing that Xiao Ya was with them, or how would he have seen his Butterfly behaving in such a coquettish and cheeky manner.
Meanwhile, Xiao Ya who was giggling while all along this time seeing her Big Sister and Papa teasing each other had a shocked expression on her face.
She then asked with a confused look to Ye Qian.
"Dad, then I am also a pig?"
"Yes, yes, you are a very sweet and cute little baby pig."
Ye Qian said with a serious face while hardly trying to control himself so as to not laugh out loud.
Hearing his really, the little girl's face turned pale as she looked at her bum.
Little Qiqi who was waiting as to when would her Papa come and try to console her took a quick peek but didn't see her Papa to be even looking at her.
'Humph, Qiqi will not talk to Papa until Papa asks for forgiveness, HUMPH.'
But after noticing that Xiao Ya was looking at her bum with a worried face, she couldn't help but wonder.
'What is Xiao Ya looking at?'
She took a peek once again but didn't understand.
"Xiao Ya what are you looking for dear?"
Indeed not only was it Little Qiqi, but even Ye Qian was confused as to what the little girl was searching for while stretching her neck so much.
It made Ye Qian worried that the girl would strain her neck if she were to continue stretching it so much.
