Quadruplets’ Charm: The Tycoon’s Hidden Heirs
Chapter 378: Good Girl, Call Uncle

Chapter 378: Chapter 378: Good Girl, Call Uncle

Luckily, her elder brother was tipsy and didn’t notice, or else it would definitely be seen through. What then? How would she explain herself?

If her elder brother hadn’t appeared at that moment, would Ye Sihan have continued?

Xing Ling wondered, did she hope he would continue, or not?

Truthfully, Xing Ling was an adult, and she wasn’t too fussed about such matters.

She grew up abroad, had seen a lot, and wasn’t that conservative.

The more Xing Ling thought about it, the redder her face became.

She buried her face in the comforter, terrified that someone would see her blushing.

Ahhh! Xing Ling, don’t get carried away just because he stood up for you in the women’s clothing store, it’s not like that, it’s not!

The next day, Xing Ling was somewhat distracted on set, her mind often wandering to Ye Sihan, like a springtime adolescent girl.

Either she’d be daydreaming, or she’d be staring blankly at her phone.

She used to get scenes right in one take, two at the most, but now she required several takes.

The director was concerned enough to check if she was alright or needed a break.

The assistant, however, felt that Xing Ling didn’t seem unwell, but rather lovesick.

Having just managed to complete a scene, Xing Ling lay back in her chair and asked again, "What time is it?"

"Three o’clock." The assistant said, bringing over some washed fruit.

"It’s only three?" Xing Ling felt like she had been filming for ages.

"Sis, what time do you wish it were?" asked the assistant.

"What do I wish? I just feel like time is dragging, that’s all."

"Are you in a hurry to see someone?"

Xing Ling sat up abruptly, "Who would I want to see?"

"Don’t know!"

"If you don’t know, then don’t spout nonsense." Xing Ling popped a grape into her mouth, in a way that seemed a little too conscious.

Her face was slightly flushed as if her deepest thoughts had been exposed.

She just couldn’t stop thinking about Ye Sihan in her mind.

After all, he was always doing those things to her, wasn’t he?

And it was making her act weird too.

Even though she looked exactly like Tang Yu, Tang Yu was already dead. What was there for her to feel uneasy about?

Was she supposed to compete with a ghost?

No, no, that’s not right—it sounded as if she had something with Ye Sihan.

As it was nearing four-thirty, a helicopter arrived.

Xing Ling had been ready early on, but she didn’t see the Quadruplets alight from the helicopter immediately.

She asked the bodyguard, "The kids didn’t come?"

"Not yet," said the bodyguard.

After boarding the helicopter, Xing Ling changed her mind, saying, "Let’s go straight to KING Corporation!"

About ten minutes later, the helicopter landed on the rooftop of KING Corporation.

Alighting from the elevator, Xing Ling walked briskly toward Ye Sihan’s office.

But just as she reached the office door, she noticed it was left ajar.

As she walked in, she heard a familiar voice.

"They knew I was an artist under KING Corporation, so they were very polite to me. It’s a kind of treatment I’ve never enjoyed before, all thanks to Sihan’s good fortune," Wu Qianqian said cheerfully.

"That’s good."

"Let’s have dinner tonight; my treat," Wu Qianqian offered.

"Hmm," Ye Sihan agreed.

And Xing Ling outside had heard the entire conversation.

She had forgotten about Wu Qianqian.

Ye Sihan’s woman.

Ye Sihan didn’t need Wu Qianqian’s treat, did he? To him, was it not something novel?

Xing Ling was about to walk away.

"Miss Xing, why are you eavesdropping at the door?"

Xing Ling jumped in shock, turning to see Yi Die, who had appeared at some point, with a glint of schadenfreude in her eyes.

That volume would surely have been heard by those inside the office.

Xing Ling felt the embarrassment of being caught red-handed and without saying anything, she turned and left.

Wu Qianqian asked in the office, "Is it Xing Ling, sister?"

Ye Sihan’s dark eyes stared at the office door, silent and deep.

Xing Ling ran to the side of the road, looking at the endless stream of cars, her mind short-circuiting, seemingly at a loss for what to do next.

An indistinct sourness tugged at her heart.

She had been foolish to think Ye Sihan was interested in her.

How could she forget there was always a stream of women around him!

Forget it, she wasn’t interested.

There’s no shortage of men in this world, is there?

Xing Ling called her second brother, "Are you busy?"

"What’s the matter?"

"Come pick me up!"

"Where are you?"

By chance, Xing Yanjie was nearby and soon arrived to pick up his downhearted sister.

"You look upset, and you’re in front of the KING Group building, did Ye Sihan bully you?" Xing Yanjie guessed.

"No, just hungry," Xing Ling was not about to share her embarrassing moment!

Xing Yanjie glanced at her and reached out to ruffle her hair, "You’re grown up now, got things on your mind."

"Don’t mess up my hair."

They didn’t return to the Ye Mansion for dinner, but found a nice restaurant to eat at instead.

Seeing the delicious food, Xing Ling felt somewhat better.

During the meal, Xing Yanjie asked, "Where will you stay tonight?"

"At the Ye Mansion!" Xing Ling said instinctively.

After speaking, she frowned to herself. If Ye Sihan was out dating another woman, why should she go back to the Ye Mansion?

But no, Ye Sihan is Ye Sihan, and the children are the children. She didn’t want to make the innocent quadruplets sad!

After dinner, they headed back to the Ye Mansion.

As soon as Xing Ling got out of the car, the quadruplets crowded around her—

"Mommy, where did you go for dinner?"

"We waited for mommy for a long time."

"If you didn’t come back, we were going to look for you."

"Mommy..."

Xing Ling thought to herself, how could she possibly just walk away when four children were so worried about her!

She was thinking, what if she had to leave in the future? What would they do? They don’t even know their own mother is no longer in this world!

"Didn’t you call for me?" Xing Yanjie stood in front of them and picked up Xibao, "Be good, say ’uncle’."

"Uncle..."

"Uncle!" the other three boys shouted in unison.

Xing Yanjie was satisfied then.

They walked into the house.

Upon entering the hall, Xing Ling’s steps halted abruptly, and she stared blankly at Ye Sihan sitting on the sofa.

Why was he home? Back so early? Was it just dinner with Wu Qianqian?

Considering what Ye Sihan had done to her, he didn’t seem like the type who kept a distance from women.

"Have you finished your homework?" Xing Ling asked the quadruplets.

"No!"

"Let’s go! We’ll head upstairs," Xing Ling led the children upstairs.

When she passed by Ye Sihan, she ignored him completely.

Ye Sihan’s gaze followed Xing Ling, his lips pressed tightly, remaining silent.

Xing Yanjie observed the atmosphere between them, walked over, and sat down across from Ye Sihan on the sofa, giving him a look like he was interrogating a criminal, "The relationship between you and Tang Yu seems quite complicated!"

Ye Sihan showed no reaction.

If Xing Yanjie was saying this, it meant he had investigated the matter.

The reason he found nothing before was that he didn’t know about the existence of Tang Yu; now that he knew, the investigation was much easier.

"Since you don’t remember your past with Tang Yu, what are you thinking now? I remind you, searching for memories is fine, but don’t do anything else," he didn’t like the atmosphere between them.

And he implied something without believing that Ye Sihan wouldn’t understand.

Especially considering how beautiful his little sister was!
