It raised its head and looked at Qiao Qiao with a pitiful expression. When Qiao Qiao, who was holding a steamed bun, also looked over, it started to shed tears again.

However, Qiao Qiao didn't feel sorry for him.

Instead, he echoed Qiao Changdong, saying, "Yes, Dad is right."

The turtle's dark eyes suddenly lost their luster, and it listlessly moved to the side.

Shen Qingyan returned when everyone was halfway through breakfast.

His expression was somewhat serious.

"What happened?" Yan Liti asked, noticing his pale face.

Shen Qingyan didn't answer her, but instead looked at Wang Xinghua, who had almost finished eating, and asked, "Brother Wang, do you know where Second Brother Wang went today?"

"I don't know, he probably went to the company." Seeing his strange expression, Wang Xinghua followed Yan Liti's lead and asked, "What happened?"

Shen Qingyan looked at the children at the table, and swallowed back the words she was about to say. She only said, "It's okay. You're going to school later, right? I'll take you there in my car."

Wang Xinghua realized that this person wanted to talk to him privately, so he nodded and said, "Okay, you eat too. We'll leave in twenty minutes."

"Dad," Qiao Qiao called softly from the side.

She was a little uneasy.

Shen Qingyan rarely focuses her attention on others when she is present.

She knew that something very serious must have happened.

"It's alright." Shen Qingyan walked towards her, picked her up from the chair, placed her on his lap, and kissed her forehead: "How about Daddy feeds you?"

Although Shen Qingyan submitted a report that he would stay in Kyoto on vacation and would not have to go on dangerous missions outside, he was exempt from such duties.

But he can't really relax; he has a lot to deal with every day.

Especially recently, helping the police station investigate the organization exposed by Bi Yatong has taken a lot of time and effort, and the further they investigate, the more shocking it becomes.

The scope of the investigation is simply too vast. In Kyoto alone, it has already implicated many wealthy and noble families. The truth behind some of the things that have been uncovered is extremely vile, even darker than human limits.

Who could imagine that Kyoto, seemingly so prosperous on the surface, harbors so much filth behind the scenes?

Currently, the clues he has uncovered have also implicated the Wang family.

Yan Xiaoqing herself is a biologist, and both she and Wang Xinghua own several research institutions.

The businesses the Wang family has been involved in over the years are mostly related to pharmaceuticals and medical devices.

Shen Qingyan only hoped that the Wang family was unaware of this matter.

Otherwise, if they were involved in such a major case and faced with such a fundamental issue, even he wouldn't be able to save them.

He doesn't have many relatives. The Shen family is basically cut off. Only the Yan family and the Wang family are considered relatives by him.

Thinking of this, Shen Qingyan looked at the little girl in his arms, who was obediently sucking on the spoon he had offered to her lips, and his eyes softened again.

Qiao Qiao doesn't have a big appetite. She ate two small steamed buns, half a bowl of red bean porridge, and a piece of milk cake for breakfast and was full.

The three boys had already finished eating. After Yan Xiaoqing finished eating, Huang Yiliang would take them to school separately.

Before Qiao Qiao came here, when they were in school, the two brothers, Wang Chun and Wang Sheng, did not actually live in the courtyard house.

Wangwang is in the third grade at the affiliated primary school of Tianjin University. Huang Yiliang can just drive him there. But now that he needs to take Wangsheng to Tianjin No. 1 Middle School, he has to go to one more place and leave earlier.

Yan Liti plans to take Qiao Qiao to Tianjin University today, along with Qiao Changdong and Fu Yu, as well as the big turtle that was drawing circles in the corner.

The big turtle stayed in the corner for a while, looking aggrieved. Seeing that no one paid attention to it, it finally crawled back silently behind Qiao Qiao.

Now, whenever Qiao Qiao makes a move, it follows her every step.

God knows how a tortoise can walk so fast.

Especially when passing the large marble floor in the yard, they walk with their heads held high and leisurely strolls, as if they were taking a walk in their own yard.

Everyone who saw it was both annoyed and amused.

However, the tortoise's leisurely pace changed after he saw Qiao Qiao being carried to a car by Qiao Changdong.

It waddled around the car door anxiously, its fleshy paws swaying.

Trying to climb up, it found that while its paws could reach the car door, its massive shell couldn't squeeze into the narrow doorway.

It was both angry and anxious, so it turned its head, opened its mouth wide, and started to pick at its own turtle shell.

It seemed as if it wanted to bite off that obstructive, enormous tortoise shell in one gulp.

Everyone fell silent.

At that moment, everyone had the same question on their minds: Is this really a turtle, and not a dog?

The giant tortoise, who was questioned by everyone as being more like a dog than a bastard, tried for two minutes but realized it still couldn't climb onto Qiao Qiao's car, so it gave up completely.

Instead, he got stuck between the car door and the floor, and started shed tears in front of Qiao Qiao.

"..." The crowd.

Okay, this is not only a dog turtle, but also a dog turtle with the soul of Lin Daiyu.

Qiao Qiao sat in the back seat of the car, looking at the tortoise stuck at the car door, blocking others from getting in. She was puzzled as to why it was so determined to follow her.

She pursed her lips and said, "You wait at home, we'll be back this afternoon."

Upon hearing this, the turtle began to shed tears.

“If you don’t move aside, then we’ll take you back now,” Qiao Qiao said again.

This time, the tortoise swiftly retreated from the car door with lightning speed, and then, with its large, fleshy claws, raced back to the side gate of the courtyard house.

So fast that it became a blur in everyone's eyes.

"..." The crowd.

That old bastard is really something else!

The old turtle, now possessed by magic, stretched its neck and turned to look at the mark on its back after watching Qiao Qiao and her group drive away, before disappearing from the spot.

"Master, it's following us."

On the bus, Qiao Qiao leaned against the window, gazing out at the bustling main road. Lost in thought, she heard Xiao Yuan's voice in her mind.

"What? You've caught up?" Qiao Qiao was taken aback when she heard this.

"You old bastard, you're right on our roof right now. Look at the pedestrians on the street, aren't they all staring at us?"

Upon hearing this, Qiao Qiao looked out at the pedestrians on the street, following Xiao Yuan's words.

The Wang family's courtyard house is hidden in a hutong (traditional alleyway), and it takes about seven or eight minutes to walk through it after turning a corner.

The alleyways are narrow and there are many pedestrians, so cars drive very slowly.

This also makes it easy for her to see the expressions on the faces of pedestrians clearly.

She did see many people, their expressions ranging from surprise and confusion to amusement as they stared at the roof of their car. Some even pointed and gestured.
