Chapter 675: Chapter 675: All Assisted by God

"When my mommy comes back, I’ll have to eat her ’dark cuisine’ again..."

Zhu Qianying paused for a moment, calculated carefully, several days had already passed since her best friend made a phone call, probably, her friend’s return was not too far away.

"Silly Xiaolu, you can go to grandma’s restaurant then! Or, if you can’t stand it anymore, come stay at Aunt Ying’s house, and let your mommy company your grandpa!"

Zhu Qianying jested.

Since the phone call from Bai Shao, both she and Bai Xiaolu have been in noticeably better spirits.

"Nevermind, then my mommy will be too pitiful..." Bai Xiaolu shrugged, showing great consideration.

Zhu Qianying smiled and stroked her hair without saying more.

Bai Xiaolu was talking without thinking, but it made Zhu Qianying feel upset.

The little girl must not know that her grandparents had already come to take her back to the Zong family, to recognize her ancestors and return to the clan.

Although Zhu Qianying and Bai Shao have spent considerable time apart these years, they understand each other well. Therefore, Zhu Qianying had a rough idea of how her friend would deal with this situation.

Thinking of the possible outcome, Zhu Qianying felt bad in her heart. But no matter what, if that was Bai Shao’s choice, all she could do was quietly support her.

Zhu Qianying quickly finished off the snacks in front of her. After settling the bill, Young Master Yan sent them to the car. He then got into the co-pilot seat. Seeing this, Zhu Qianying leaned on the back of the chair and said to Young Master Yan.

"Young Master Yan, you can go straight back to the company, you don’t have to accompany us to the restaurant."

How could Young Master Yan be at ease? "It’s okay, half an hour won’t make a difference."

Although everything had been quiet on Zong Mao’s side these days, it was always better to be cautious.

Zhu Qianying understood his concerns, and didn’t say any more, but retreated to listen to the two naughty kids arguing again over a small matter.

The car stopped in front of the restaurant. Zhu Qianying and the two kids entered first, while Young Master Yan circled around the store. After confirming that there was nothing unusual, he entered the restaurant, greeted Luo Yifan and Chen Jing, gave a few words to Xiao Tao and the other part-time shop assistants, and then left rest assured.

Young Master Yan and Zhu Qianying were only thinking about guarding against Zong Mao, but they didn’t consider another person.

The customers at lunchtime were almost the same as usual, not many, but also not few.

Luo Yifan usually helped to greet the customers, but this time, he was playing Go with the two little boys.

Zhu Qianying stayed in the kitchen chatting with Chen Jing, "Mom, is Uncle Luo still living in the hotel during this period?"

Chen Jing looked at her strangely, "Of course, if he doesn’t live in the hotel, where would he live?"

Zhu Qianying took a sigh of relief in her heart. It turned out just as she had thought.

At first, she didn’t want to move back to the Yan family, mostly because she was uneasy about leaving her mother alone in the apartment.

Now, the possibility of her and baby boy moving back to the apartment was decreasing. Since her mom and Uncle Luo had reached an understanding, they could actually start to close the distance between them.

Thinking this way, Zhu Qianying couldn’t help but want to say or do something to encourage her mother.

Otherwise, with her mom’s conservative temperament, who knows when they would break through that final barrier.

At this time, Zhu Qianying had no idea that what she was doing for her mother was exactly what her son had been doing for her a few months ago.

"Mom, aren’t you living back in the apartment now? Isn’t it boring to live alone?"

Of course, she couldn’t be too direct, or her mother would definitely not accept it.

"It’s not boring. Besides, in some days, you two will come back to keep me company, it’s not like I’m always alone."

In Chen Jing’s view, even if Zhu Qianying and Xiaozi officially moved back to the Yan family’s house, they would still stay in the apartment for two or three days a week, right?

Moreover, she had gotten used to it now, whenever she missed her daughter and grandson, she would just go to the Yan family’s house and stay for a few days. So, being bored? That was impossible.

Zhu Qianying silently sighed in her heart, and secretly said to Luo Yifan, "Uncle Luo, you have a hard time."

"Mom, Xiaozi and I probably won’t move back to the apartment anymore. You can clean up Xiaozi’s bedroom and let Uncle Luo live in it. It’s always a bit inconvenient to live in a hotel for a long time, isn’t it?"

Chen Jing was shocked, when she understood her daughter’s words, her face showed an embarrassed expression.

"Ying’er, he and I... haven’t reached that step yet."

Zhu Qianying couldn’t help but make a mental remark, at the rate they were going, when would they ever get to ’that step’?

But in the end, Zhu Qianying didn’t dare to say this out loud in front of her mother to avoid making her uncomfortable.

"Mom, you’re thinking too much. I didn’t say that you two have to live together, but I’m worried that you will be bored living alone, and Xiaozi and I can’t keep you company recently, so just let Uncle Luo keep you company. Anyway, living under the same roof for some time will make it easier to determine whether you two are suitable or not, right?"

What Zhu Qianying said made sense, but Chen Jing was too shy to agree even after hemming and hawing for a while.

Zhu Qianying was anxious too, her mother was always indecisive, especially about big decisions.

And Luo Yifan was such a gentle man that it seemed he had entirely handed the power to control the pace of their relationship to her mom.

As a result, despite the sweet mood between them these days, the progress bar of their relationship hasn’t moved forward much from where it stood a few days ago.

It turns out that not all men can be like the Eldest Young Master Yan, who can be a gentleman when necessary and domineering when needed.

Seeing that she couldn’t persuade her mother, Zhu Qianying went to the storefront, pulled up a chair and sat down next to Luo Yifan.

"Uncle Luo, things haven’t been peaceful lately, so I’ll have to trouble you to take care of my mom."

At first, Luo Yifan was a bit confused. He agreed vaguely, but after digesting Zhu Qianying’s words, he had a hunch that she was hinting at something.

So, he tentatively asked Zhu Qianying, "I can stay in the store during the day to look after her, but I live in a hotel at night and I can’t take care of her. Maybe I can sleep in the living room, then I can take care of her day and night."

He put it gently, only asking for a small resting place in the living room and he would be content with that.

"Uncle Luo, you should ask my mom. After all, she’s the owner of the apartment, we won’t have any objection as long as she agrees."

Zhu Qianying’s meaning was very clear, that was, everything depended on her mom’s choice.

As long as her mother was willing, even if her mom wanted to live with Luo Yifan, she and her sister would have no objection.
