C193 Sleep Late

Early in the morning, the two of them spent some time together before coming out of the hotel. Qin Lang ordered a new birthday cake and arrived home just before noon.

As soon as she opened the door, she could smell the aroma of food coming from the kitchen. Aunt Liu was cooking in the kitchen, Xu Yun was helping, Yu was sitting on the sofa in the living room, playing with toys, and there were cartoons on the TV.

As soon as he saw the two of them walk into the living room, Yu's face fell. He turned his back and ignored them.

"What's wrong with Yu? Who made him angry?" Qiao Lin walked over and put his arm around Yu's shoulder.

"Hmph, I don't want to pay attention to Dad and Dad Qiao Lin anymore." Yu pouted, "Dad promised to celebrate Dad Qiao Lin's birthday with me. Last night, I accompanied him to buy flowers and pick up gifts, but he left me at home after coaxing me to sleep. Dad must not love Yu anymore."

Accusing him of playing with his father, Yu started to scold Qiao Lin again, "And you too, Dad Qiao Lin. It's your birthday today and you didn't come home early. I wanted to celebrate your birthday with you too."

Thinking back to last night, the two adults were now being scolded by a child. Qiao Lin felt embarrassed and quickly patted Yu's head, "Be good, Yu. Dad and Dad both love you. How could we leave Yu behind? We're going to buy a cake and come back to celebrate Yu's birthday. "

Qiao Lin took the cake from Qin Lang's hands and placed it on the coffee table beside the sofa.

A smile finally appeared on Yu's face when he saw the cake. He jumped down from the sofa and looked at the cake happily, "That's great, I can celebrate Qiao Lin's father's birthday now and sing a birthday song."

Kids were easily satisfied. A small matter that was worth making them happy could make them forget about their unhappiness.

Speaking of singing a birthday song, Yu seemed to have thought of something. He then turned his attention to Qin Lang, who had left him last night. "Dad, let me use your phone."

Qin Lang did not know what Yu was trying to do, but last night, he was in the wrong. He left the child behind without telling him. He took out his phone and handed it to Yu.

Yu quickly unlocked his phone, clicked on the dial, and pressed a string of numbers. When the call was made, the name Qin Shu appeared on the screen.

While waiting for the phone to be connected, Yu said to Qin Lang and Qiao Lin with a smile, "Uncle's singing now is not scary at all, but it's nice to hear. He can't be absent from the birthday song."

Qiao Lin and Qin Lang were about to call Qin Shu back to have dinner together, but they did not pick up the phone on the way back. They wanted to call him again when they got home, but Yu beat them to it.

The phone rang for a long time, but no one answered. Yu hung up and pursed his lips again. "Is Uncle sleeping in?"

The child did not give up and called again.

Yu was right. Qin Shu was indeed sleeping in. He had been busy preparing for the competition recently, and he was already tired. Last night, he was separated from Yee Fann as soon as they started dating. He hadn't seen Yee Fann for more than a month, so he couldn't help but have a good time. He slept soundly in the morning and didn't hear any of the calls he made in the morning.

It wasn't until Yu called him a second time that he woke up. When he heard the buzzing sound, he followed it sleepily from the bed to the phone.

Seeing Qin Lang's name on the screen, Qin Shu instantly woke up. The image of Qin Lang holding a knife last night flashed in his mind. He was sweating in the cold weather. However, when he thought about how Qin Lang had promised him and Yee Fann, his heart calmed down and he quickly picked up the phone.

"Brother..."

Just as Qin Shu was about to speak, he was interrupted by a young voice from the phone, "Uncle, what are you doing? Why did you only pick up the phone now? It's almost eleven o'clock, let's go home and have dinner. Grandma Liu has made a lot of delicious food. Today is Qiao Lin's father's birthday, come back and sing a birthday song."

Qiao's birthday? Qin Shu immediately reacted. No wonder his brother had suddenly appeared last night without even saying hello, catching him and Yee Fann in the act.

"Do you miss your uncle or did you let him go home and sing?" Qin Shu teased Yu on the phone.

"I miss my uncle and I also want to hear him sing. Other than the lullaby, I have only heard him sing on TV."

Thinking back to how he had cried every time he sang the lullaby, Qin Shu felt gratified. It seemed that learning to sing was not wrong. He had challenged him and got close to Yee Fann. Now, even Yu liked him more and more.

"Alright, uncle will go to the car now. Wait for uncle at home."

"Okay, I'll see you later."

After picking up the phone, Qin Shu quickly got off the bed and put on his clothes. When he returned from the bathroom after washing up, he found the key at the head of the bed and the note under the key.

Yee Fann left for work early this morning. He was sleepy at the time and didn't know what Yee Fann was saying in his ear. Yee Fann probably left a note because he couldn't bear to disturb him while he was sleeping.

Qin Shu picked up the key and the note.

"This is my spare key. I'm not far from the office, it's only a ten-minute drive away, and if there's nothing else, you can stay here until I get home from the show."

Not only did Yee Fann leave him a note, but he also sent him a few texts.

"I know you haven't woken up yet. After I finish work today, I'll go straight back to the production team. I won't be going home, so don't wait for me. Remember to go to dinner when you wake up."

"For next week's competition, if the circumstances allow, I will come to the arena to cheer you on. Train well this week, but take care to take a break. Don't sneak off with Faang Su to eat hotpot. It's not good for your throat."

Looking at the text message and note, as well as the key with the bear key ring in his hand, Qin Shu could not help but laugh.

In fact, Yee Fann's personality hadn't changed much over the years. He was still as reluctant to get close to strangers as he was in the past. When they first met, he was cold to Yee Fann, but he was still concerned about the people he knew and liked around him.

Qin Shu took the key and went out. Only when he got into the elevator did he feel hungry. He started to think about the delicious food Aunt Liu had made herself, which he had not eaten in a week or two.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry," he kept saying, when he wasn't looking at the road.

"I should be the one apologizing. I was thinking about something and didn't pay much attention." Qin Shu looked at the man in front of him. He was half a head shorter than him. He was wearing a thick black down jacket, a white scarf around his neck, a gray wool hat, and a mask on his face.

The man did not say anything else to him. He nodded at him and entered the elevator.
