After the few of them were ready, they left for the Han Residence right away. Initially, Han Muzi was planning on driving there herself, but when she arrived at the parking lot, she remembered that she had left her car at the Ye Group yesterday. Now, she had no vehicle to take with her.
Little Bean and Yan, who were standing right next to her, asked in unison.
“Mommy, where’s the car?”
“Muzi, where’s the car?”
Han Muzi did not know how to respond. She touched her nose, feeling a little embarrassed. “I don’t think it’s… here.”
“Yeah, we’ve noticed. So what should we do now? Should we walk all the way there?” Yan sighed and helplessly looked at Han Muzi. “I knew we couldn’t count on you. Let’s call a cab.” With that, Yan took out her phone and quickly called a cab.
When they got into the cab, Yan and Little Bean were seated next to each other, complaining.
“Little Bean, your mommy is unreliable. Next time when we go out, it’s better to rely on me.”
Upon hearing that, Little Bean nodded while laughing.
At the Han Residence.
After getting out of the car, perhaps due to her guilty conscience, Han Muzi almost fell when she tried to stagger a few steps forward. Fortunately, Yan was quick to pull her up.
That was close. Han Muzi started to look slightly worried after she stood steadily.
“Mommy, are you okay?” Little Bean quickly ran to her side and held her hands. “Why don’t you let me hold your hand when you walk?”
After Han Muzi had finally calmed down, she looked at Little Bean and smiled. “I’m okay, Little Bean. Don’t need to worry about me.”
As she was taking a few steps forward, Yan muttered softly, “I was just wondering how you could be so calm. So, you are indeed a little scared and worried on the inside.” After finishing that sentence, Yan chuckled.
Han Muzi gave her a stare and whispered, “That’s not true.”
“Whatever.”
When the servants at the door saw Han Muzi, Yan, and Little Bean, they quickly greeted them. “Young Lady, you’re here.”
Han Muzi nodded and smiled. “Mrs. Qin, where is my brother?”
“Since Master got up this morning, he has been in a video conference in his study.”
“A video conference?” Han Muzi blinked and subconsciously looked at Little Bean, who was next to her.
“Every time Uncle Qing is in a meeting, it will usually take a long time, mommy. Are we still going to wait for him?”
Han Muzi pinched Little Bean’s face and whispered, “Uncle Qing is in a conference, so we’ll just walk around a little bit while waiting for him to join us later for lunch. You have lived here before, Little Bean; why don’t you go and play by yourself for a moment?”
“Alright, Mommy. I’ll go play now.” Little Bean left right away. Though he did not have long legs and arms, he could move around very quickly. He disappeared in a split second.
This was the Han Residence, so there was no need to worry about his safety. Seeing that he had left to play by himself, Han Muzi decided to carry on with her business.
“What about you?” Han Muzi looked at Yan, who was standing next to her. “He went to play by himself. Where are you planning on going?”
Where am I planning on going? Yan was stunned for a second. Since she was not part of the Han Family, she could not possibly be like Little Bean and go wherever she wanted to.
Sigh. At this moment, Yan began to feel sad. If Han Qing was into her, she could freely move around in this place.
This saddened her. Why did it seem so easy for others to go after their crush, but for her, it had to be so difficult? Didn’t people always say it was easy for a woman to go after a man? However, Yan felt like there had been so many obstacles in her courtship of Han Qing.
“What’s going on? You want to go look for my brother, don’t you?” Han Muzi asked.
Yan came back to her senses and quickly denied it, “Of course not. How would I dare to disturb him when he’s in a conference? If I were to go in and look for him now, he will hate me even more.” After all, when a man was busy at work, whenever he was bothered by someone, whoever it was, they would surely harbor an unpleasant feeling.
Yan knew this point well herself.
“Alright, look at how mad you are getting. Don’t be sad anymore. Let me show you around, and when it’s lunchtime you’ll be able to see him.”
Yan did not feel like saying anything more. She nodded and went away with Han Muzi.
Close to noon, all the delicious food had been placed on the table. The servants were busy going in and out as they all knew the Young Lady of the Han Family, Han Muzi, was an apple in their master’s eyes.
Thus, when Han Qing was giving the instructions, all the servants were extremely attentive. If they pleased Han Muzi, that would naturally mean they had also pleased Han Qing.
Looking at all the different dishes and things that were on the table in front of her, Han Muzi was shocked. She subconsciously asked the servant next to her, “What is the special occasion today?”
The servant was startled and wondered for a moment what she meant by that, before responding, “Miss Muzi, there is no special occasion today. Is there anything wrong?”
No special occasion? Why are there so many dishes on the table then? Han Muzi was confused. “It seems like normally there aren’t that many dishes. Since there are so many today, I thought there was some special occasion.”
One of the older servants heard it and responded with a smile, “Miss Muzi, there are some things that you aren’t aware of. Whenever you come home, that day will be a special day for the Han Family. It’s even more important than any other festivals.”
These words, once spoken, had immediately received the concurrence from the other servants around—many of the younger servants nodded in agreement. “That’s right, Miss Muzi, once you’re home, our Master is extremely happy, and that will be the most special day for the Han Family.”
Seeing rows of smiley faces and thinking of Han Qing’s face, for some reason Han Muzi felt touched. Han Qing spoiled her a lot, yet she hid many things from him—including the fact that she was with Ye Moxuan. She had never mentioned any of these things to Han Qing before.
At this point, Han Muzi decided that if this lunch that Han Qing invited her to was merely a lunch, she would bring up Ye Moxuan. But if Han Qing already knew about it, she would just willingly admit to it.
After making the decision, Han Muzi smiled at them. “Alright, thank you, everyone, for your hard work today, and for all the good food. It’s getting late, so please go and eat now.”
“Thank you, Miss Muzi. We’ll go now.”
“Sure.”
“By the way, Master’s conference has just finished. He will be down in a minute.”
“Okay.”
When they were all gone, Han Muzi looked around, but she did not seem to see Little Bean anywhere. This Little Bean; where did he go this time?
Not just Little Bean. Even Yan… had disappeared as well. She was still with her earlier, but she disappeared after Han Muzi went back to her room to get changed.
Did she go and find Han Qing already?
