Chapter 1270 Delicate and Weak
"Mrs. Qin!"
Spotting Mrs. Qin and her two children, Su Yunjin’s face lit up with joy and she quickly stood up. Mrs. Qin was with her two children, the girl being naughty. As soon as she arrived, she took a tumble, but fortunately, she wasn’t hurt badly, just a scrape on the skin. The little girl, being pampered and frail under Mrs. Qin’s care, looked pitiful even with just a broken skin.
She felt very wronged.
Mrs. Qin’s heart ached for her daughter but still put on a stern face to scold her, lest the child would make the same mistake again. Her son had always been precocious, acting like a little adult.
Seeing his sister being scolded, the brother went over to comfort her.
Knowing his sister liked sweet and rich treats, he took her hand and led her to the desserts on the table, as the two children from the Prince Qi Residence would come here a few times a year.
Both children had tasted the delicacies of the Prince Qi Residence. The little girl enjoyed them, whereas the little boy thought they were more suitable for girls and seldom partook of the Prince Qi Residence’s desserts. Yet today, to cheer up his little sister, the boy unusually picked out several exquisitely cute pastries to comfort her, and she was easy to please. A child of a few years old doesn’t hold on to unhappiness—her recent grievance was just from the fall and her mother’s scolding. Now that she had her brother’s pastries, the little girl’s smile returned in an instant.
Clutching a duck-shaped cake, the little girl happily nibbled away, her delicate appearance endearing and especially charming, prompting Su Yunjin to envy.
She also wanted a daughter like that, so adorable that one would yearn to kiss her. Having pacified his sister, Mrs. Qin noticed Su Yunjin.
Seeing Su Yunjin smiling at her, she turned back to instruct her husband, telling him to watch the children while she walked toward where Su Yunjin and Gu Ya were seated.
"Lady Su, it’s been a long time." It had been several months since their last meeting. Mrs. Qin was also aware of the new branch of Zuixiang Restaurant that Su Yunjin had opened.
She even sent a congratulatory gift, but, with her own business keeping her busy and having to care for two children, she couldn’t find the time to offer her congratulations in person.
