Chapter 281 New dads are just unreliable

Qiao Qiao shyly nestled her head against his neck.

Thinking of something, she looked up again, her little hair, which she had rubbed into a mess, and pointed to a cabinet by the bed, saying in a soft, sweet voice, "Daddy, open this cabinet."

Shen Qingyan, unsuspecting, stretched out and opened the cabinet.

The cabinet was empty except for a brown bag in the center, with a broken seal on it.

Shen Qingyan's heart skipped a beat.

He seemed to have guessed something and turned to look at Qiao Qiao.

Qiao Qiao blinked.

Shen Qingyan trembled as she took out the brown bag, opened it, and pulled out a few sheets of paper.

I started looking from the top and gradually looked down, and then my eyes slowly reddened.

Like Yan Liti, even though she already knew the result, Shen Qingyan still couldn't help but tremble when she saw the report with her own eyes.

This is his daughter.

This is his daughter.

He is the most precious treasure in this world.

"Sweetie, now that you're awake, get up. Didn't you say last night you wanted to eat Grandma Chi's pumpkin cakes? Daddy will take you to eat them today. They'll taste even better when they're hot."

Qiao Changdong never expected to see this scene when he returned with a thermos after washing up.

It suddenly tasted incredibly sour.

Standing by the door, he deliberately made a sound, interrupting this touching scene between father and daughter.

After speaking gently to Qiao Qiao, his gaze toward Shen Qingyan became less friendly, and his words became even more impolite.

“Hey, Mr. Shen, we don’t have heating here. Next time, don’t let our little darling get out of bed before she’s dressed properly, or she’ll catch a cold and get a fever.”

"Honestly, these new dads you meet along the way are unreliable and don't know how to take care of people at all."

The last sentence was said by Qiao Changdong in a sarcastic tone.

Qiao Qiao and Shen Qingyan exchanged a glance, and both of them inexplicably shrank back a little.

Qiao Qiao felt guilty because she had acted like a child with other fathers besides her own.

It feels like I've betrayed my father, Qiao Changdong.

Shen Qingyan felt guilty. She had indeed failed to take good care of her daughter this time, giving Qiao Changdong a handle to use against her.

He quickly wrapped his daughter carefully in the blanket again and carried her back to bed.

He carefully put away the paternity test report, but instead of returning it to its original place, he placed it on a table to the side, as if he intended to examine it carefully later.

The commotion quickly woke up Yan Liti in the next room.

When Yan Liti saw Shen Qingyan carrying Qiao Qiao out of the room, she wasn't surprised. She just glanced at him to make sure he was all right, played with her precious granddaughter for a bit, and then went downstairs to wash up.

After the family of four had finished washing up, they drove to the breakfast shop in town that Qiao Qiao wanted to eat at, which sold pumpkin cakes.

Shen Qingyan was driving. Wang Jun left to go home after Shen Qingyan arrived in Hongfeng Town and met with him. His home is in Beishi, and he was heading back now, so he could get home before Lunar New Year's Eve.

Before setting off, the family of four also visited the Meng family upstairs.

When they got up there, they learned from the family next door that Qiao Xiaoyun and Meng Zhengcheng were both on duty during the day, and Meng Zihuan had been picked up by the two elders of the Meng family early in the morning.

Yan Liti felt it was a bit of a pity.

She actually quite liked that chubby boy.

They had originally thought that if they could bring Meng Zihuan along, their family of four could grow into a family of five!

The breakfast shop that Qiao Qiao wanted to eat at was in Xiangbei, about a ten-minute drive away.

Besides fried food, the shop also offers some noodle soups.

However, the beef noodle shop that Qiao Qiao likes doesn't have there.

After ordering breakfast at the shop here, Qiao Changdong told Yan Liti and Shen Qingyan, and then went to the beef noodle shop across the street to buy two servings.

One spicy, one non-spicy.

The four of them sat around a table, eating breakfast while subtly and in a way that others couldn't understand, telling Shen Qingyan about the events of the past few days.

This includes the logical chain from Meng Zheng's analysis of the previous life.

Shen Qingyan listened with her brows furrowed the entire time, never letting her expression relax.

"By the way, Aunt Yan, when you were at the hotel before, you said you wanted to investigate Shen Qingrong's despicable deeds. Have you made any progress?" Qiao Changdong asked Yan Lidi, looking up as if remembering something.

Yan Liti shook her head: "Not for now. Shen Lu and Shen Li's medical records are fine. They shouldn't have had any transplant surgery so far, but..."

Yan Liti paused abruptly when she got to this point.

Shen Qingrong, under the pretext of praying for her two daughters, seems to be preparing to establish some kind of relief organization across the country.

Yan Liti felt that Shen Qingrong was a person of questionable character.

This aid organization is probably not that simple.

Perhaps in his previous life, Jiang Min was able to successfully match Shen Li's kidneys because of this rescue organization that was still in the planning stages and had not yet been established.

Yan Liti lowered her voice and told the three of them her guess.

“That’s very possible,” Qiao Changdong nodded in agreement.

He was saying something when he heard a commotion at the door. He looked up and saw the car that Old Master Shen often rode in parked at the door.

Then, amidst the scrutinizing and astonished gazes of the crowd, Wei Xingzhi, who was in the passenger seat, got out of the car and walked towards the four of them.

After greeting Qiao Changdong and Yan Liti, Wei Xingzhi looked at Shen Qingyan and said, "Chief Shen, the old chief requests your presence."

Shen Qingyan didn't seem surprised. She glanced at the car outside, then at Wei Xingzhi, and said calmly, "Okay, I understand. I'll go see him after I finish breakfast with my daughter."

Shen Qingyan has been back for so long.

He had always communicated with Grandpa Shen by phone, and he knew that some things had to be discussed openly.

but.

For now, having breakfast with my daughter is more important.

Wei Xingzhi nodded and got back into the car.

that's all.

The four continued eating, while a car waited by the door not far away.

No one bothers anyone.

Although many people at the breakfast shop were curious, no one dared to stare at the vehicle openly because of the military license plate on it; they only glanced at it casually from time to time.

Grandpa Shen sat in the car, watching the four people in the shop through the glass window.

His gaze was one of loss and complexity.

After all four of them had finished eating, Shen Qingyan carried Qiao Qiao to his car and reluctantly handed the little girl he had been holding to Yan Liti, who was already in the car.

"You guys go back first. You know how to drive this car, right?"

As Shen Qingyan spoke, he took the car keys out of his pocket and handed them to Qiao Changdong.
