Back For My Daughter

Chapter 76 - Let's Go To The Mall

In Ning Wei's house, Ye Qian was standing in front of her while completely oblivious of little Qiqi and Little Jia who were staring at them in confusion

"Hmm."

"Papa, shouldn't we go now Mumma left already?"

Ye Qian nodded and was speaking when Little Qiqi pulled the hem of his shirt and asked him.

This time it was Ning Wei's time to panic as she thought.

'Ahh, how can I ask such things to him and that too in front of the girls?'

Ning Wei's heart started to palpitate as she thought how Little Qiqi and Little Jia would be thinking of her.

"Come, we will go."

Ye Qian extended his hands towards them as they held it and walked with him.

"Umm, you are ready right?"

Ye Qian said to Ning Wei who was still thinking.

"Mom, Papa is calling you!"

Little Jia exclaimed seeing no answer from her Mom.

"Oh yes, I am coming."

Saying that she rushed to them and wore the casual shoes she had brought and locked the door as they were once out of the house.

"Mom, why are you behaving like that you are fine right, or should I say Papa to take you to the hospital?"

Little Jia asked in worry as she turned back to Ning Wei and asked.

"Nothing is wrong, Mom is fine, Jia."

Ning Wei said with a smile and walked near to them.

"Ok."

Little Jia nodded and continued to walk to the elevator door where Yuan Meng was still standing.

"I thought, I would have to let this one go too."

Yuan Meng said with a playful smile as she glanced at Ning Wei who was still red.

"Oh nothing, it was because of me that we are late, sorry to make you wait Sister Meng."

Ning Wei apologized as they entered the elevator.

They were quiet while the little girls would giggle and soon they were on the ground floor.

"Trriiinnnggg."

The door opened and they walked out.

They walked out and Little Jia waved her hand to the guards as they left the complex.

"How long are we going to go, do we need ot take a cab or something?"

Yuan Meng asked as they were on the road.

Ye Qian rubbed his chin and thought.

'The mall is quite far for Mengmeng and the girls we might as well take a taxi.'

"We will take a cab there."

Ye Qian said and waved at some of the taxis running on the road.

Seeing him wave Little Qiqi and Little Jia felt that it looked amazing and they also started ot wave their small tiny hands at the taxis.

After waving for a minute the girls were exhausted as they were waving with full enthusiasm.

"Huff, why is no one stopping for us?"

Little Qiqi turned to Ye Qian and asked.

"I feel pain in my hand after waving for so long."

Little Jia also shook her hands and blew on them as if they were going to feel better.

Ye Qian pursed his lips and glanced at Yuan Meng.

She smiled at them and answered.

"There will be many people going out today due to the holiday so the taxis may be full or having some duty."

"Humph, why would everyone want to go out when Papa is taking Qiqi out today.

Little Qiqi pouted and placed her hands on her waist and glared at the taxis.

"Don't worry Butterfly, there will be one soon."

Ye Qian was amused by her and cheered her up.

Yuan Meng and Ning Wei also smiled and stood behind them.

After a minute-long wait, a taxi stopped in front of them.

"Where do you want to go young man?"

The driver was in his mid-fifties, he poked his head out and asked as he glanced at them.

"Come on, this old one will take you."

Saying that he opened the door and let them sit in the taxi.

"Mengemeng you guys sit at the back I will sit in the front."

Ye Qian turned to her and said.

The ladies entered with the little girls sitting with them in the middle.

"Ok."

Ye Qian opened the door and sat beside the driver and said.

"Let's go to the IMAP Mall."

The driver nodded and drove off.

'Isn't that mall a lot expensive, wouldn't it be too waste of money to go there?'

Ning Wei raised her brows after hearing Ye Qian say IMAP Mall.

After about 15 minutes of drive, the taxi stood in front of the big glass building.

Well, this glass building was the IMAP Mall.

Many people were walking in and out ot the entrance.

"Here you go."

The driver said and opened the door.

While opening he placed his hand on Ye Qian's lap.

"How much is it?"

Ye Qian asked after getting out.

"It's 47 Yuan's."

The driver said while glancing at the log meter.

Ning Wei quickly took out 50 Yuan's and handed it to the driver.

"Hey what are you doing, uncle gives it back to her."

Ye Qian raise his brows and took a 100 Yuan note and passed it to the driver.

"Here you go, young man."

The driver gave the 50 Yuan's to Ning Wei ad gave the remaining to Ye Qian.

"Keep the change and try to avoid going to places near cemeteries."

Ye Qian waved his hand and turned to Ning Wei who had an annoyed look.

"I brought you here so, I must pay for all things and I won't feel good if I let you pay for it."

Ye Qian smiled and walked to the little girls.

"Sister Wei, don't think much about it."

"I know what you were trying to do, but you don't have to, he has enough money."

Yuan Meng patted her shoulder and said.

"But shouldn't you two be..."

"Didn't I say, he has enough money."

Yuan Meng smiled at her and continued.

"Let's go in or we might be left behind."

Ning Wei nodded and walked with her.

She had known that Yuan Meng would usually have too little money but at the end of the month, just like her, she had thought to give at least some of the fair, but seeing Ye Qian deny it she felt that he was saving his manly pride in front of her, but after hearing Yuan Meng, her worries eased.

Little Qiqi and Little Jia were staring around with their eyes shining.

"Wow, there are so many clothes and toys here."

Little Qiqi exclaimed as she glanced at the toys and clothes far away in the mall.

"Papa, what are we going to do here."

Little Jia pulled the hem of Ye Qian's shirt as she walked next to them.

"Umm let's see?"

"I have not decided yet."

Ye Qian rubbed his chin and looked at the mall.

Yuan Meng and Ning Wei also walked ot them by now and glanced at the huge structure.

They rarely went to malls much less in this kind of expensive ones, they would even buy clothes from the sales to save some money.

But Yuan Meng had gone to malls before, and that was even before Little Qiqi's birth when Ye Qian would take her out every now and then.

The ladies turned to Ye Qian and wanted to know what to do next.

"Let's go, we won't be able to enjoy and buy stuff after standing here right?"

Ye Qian patted the little girls and held their hands and walked in.

At the entrance, the guards checked them one by one.

The girls were staring at the shining lights and various food and toys stores in the mall as they walked after the ladies.

"Beep beep."

When it was Ye Qian's turn the beeping sound came from the sensor and the guards looked at him with wary.

Yuan Meng and Ning Wei were shocked after hearing the loud beeping sound.

They turned back and saw that the two guards were walking to Ye Qian.

"Sir, we will need to scan you?"

One of them took a handheld scanner and said to Ye Qian.

"Sure."

Ye Qian nodded and stood on the small platform.

The guard scanned Ye Qian but didn't found anything amiss.

"Sorry sir, looks like there was some mistake. I hope we didn't make you displeased."

The guard apologized.

"No problem."

Ye Qian said with a smile and turned to the ladies.

The guards nodded and went off to their duties.

Ye Qian walked to the girls and glanced at Yuan Meng and Ning Wei who seemed still worried about what happened at the detector.

"It's ok everything is fine no need to worry so much about it."

"Hmm."

They nodded and smiled at him.

"So are my little girls hungry?"

Ye Qian turned to the little girls staring at the food and toy shops and asked.

"Umm Papa, won't the food here be too costly, and also Jia had already eaten a lot of breakfast that Papa made, so Jia is not at all hungry."
