Chapter 138: Taking You to Eat Ice Cream

Chapter 138: Chapter 138: Taking You to Eat Ice Cream

"Daddy, your back..."

She suddenly reached out and hugged Bo Yunshen’s leg, her voice somewhat choking up.

Bo Yunshen’s body stiffened for a moment.

He had just turned his back to Qin Yinyin, and she must have seen the blood soaking through on his back, staining a patch of the gauze red.

Feeling guilty?

Could Qin Yinyin have such a good heart?

After all, she was Qin Yan’s daughter, and Qin Yan only cared about how she herself was fairing.

Bo Yunshen pursed his lips and heard Qin Yinyin say with a sobbing voice, "Daddy, is it because we just rode the roller coaster that your back started bleeding?"

"I won’t play anymore... Daddy, I’m sorry, it’s all Yinyin’s fault!"

Bo Yunshen’s movements as he pinched the cigarette became even more rigid, and after a long while, he extinguished the cigarette at his fingertips and pulled Qin Yinyin up, his tone cold and detached, "If you want to play, play some more! What are you crying for? Have some spine!"

Qin Yinyin shook her head, grasping Bo Yunshen’s fingertips.

Her palm was probably damp from exhaustion, drenched in sweat.

Bo Yunshen felt some disgust; he withdrew his fingers and fished out a pack of tissues from his pocket, his brows knitted in impatience as he wiped the sweat from Qin Yinyin’s palms and forehead.

Bo Yunshen had never served anyone before, and Qin Yinyin was the first.

A trace of discomfort flitted across his handsome face. His fingertips trembled slightly as if something had crossed his mind, and his gaze swept over the Qin Yinyin in front of him.

Her little cheeks were flushed, her dark, shiny eyes looked straight up at him, filled with adoration.

Bo Yunshen paused, then handed the tissues to Qin Yinyin, his voice lowered, "Wipe it yourself."

Qin Yinyin clumsily wiped the sweat from herself, unlike other children, not getting angry or throwing a fit. She obediently looked up at him and said softly, "I know, Mom taught me to take care of my own things."

Bo Yunshen’s pupils deepened slightly, not responding to Qin Yinyin’s words.

The sunlight in Huan Le Valley was harsh, and Bo Yunshen felt dizzy from the glaring light. He pressed his lips tightly and lowered his head to ask Qin Yinyin, "What else do you want to play?"

Children love to play, and Bo Yunshen didn’t take Qin Yinyin’s earlier refusal seriously.

As soon as he spoke, Qin Yinyin paused, her little head turned, and her gaze shifted to an ice cream shop within Huan Le Valley, her clear eyes sparkling with anticipation.

"Daddy, I want ice cream."

Following her gaze, Bo Yunshen saw the building shaped like Mickey Mouse.

Bo Yunshen’s gaze faltered.

Qin Yan had taught the child well, Qin Yinyin especially liked those thrilling amusement projects.

Screams echoed from above, and Bo Yunshen’s face darkened. He leaned over to grab Qin Yinyin and said in a low voice, "Let’s go, I’ll take you for ice cream."

Qin Yinyin’s eyes brightened again.

Qin Yan was very strict with Qin Yinyin’s diet. Even in the summer, Qin Yinyin seldom had anything cold to eat.

Upon arriving at Mickey House, the little one looked at the menu, her expression quite marvelous.

It seemed she wanted this as well as that, longing for everything she saw.

Huan Le Valley was crowded, with many children and women visiting, and the ice cream designs were layered upon each other, looking exceptionally tempting.

"I want this little bunny, and this... kitty, I also want the little tiger..."

Qin Yinyin was ticking off the menu when Bo Yunshen received a phone call from Xu Lin.

The Research and Development Department had redone the product, which was about to hit the market, and he called to ask if Bo Yunshen had time to take a look.

After all, Bo Yunshen had been very dissatisfied with the product after the morning meeting...

Bo Yunshen pinched his phone, his gaze falling on Qin Yinyin, who was fretting over the list, and the inky black halo in his pupils seemed to dissipate, tinting his eyes with the deep abyss of an ancient well, shadowy and serene.

"You need to ask me about this triviality? When you go back to the office, do I need to do your job too? That would save us a considerable sum on a secretary’s salary."

Xu Lin: "..."

Bo Yunshen had rarely left the company early since he joined.

After being snapped at, Xu Lin seriously wondered if the CEO was spending time with some important woman.

"Conduct the meeting, go review the new product philosophy, and if the R&D Department hasn’t made any progress, don’t wait for me to return. Find someone else to be the head of R&D!"

Bo Yunshen finished giving instructions and cut off the call. Qin Yinyin had not yet chosen her ice cream.

However, the female waitress standing beside her seemed to recognize Bo Yunshen, and although she was recommending the shop’s new products to Qin Yinyin, she couldn’t help glancing over at him from time to time, her pretty face blushing faintly.

Bo Yunshen licked the corner of his lip, a gesture everyone does, but he made it seem sensual and arousing, oozing with pheromones.

The waitress’s face grew even more flushed.

Qin Yinyin glanced at the waitress a few times, her cherry lips tightly pursed. Her finger tapped on the list, a sly glint in her eyes, then suddenly she looked up at Bo Yunshen.

"Daddy, I want all of these."

Bo Yunshen, who had never taken care of a child, looked towards the several ice creams she pointed at – the bowls on the menu seemed small, so Bo Yunshen nodded.

Always lofty and calm, he noticed that even for an ice cream Qin Yinyin was so happy, and without leaving a trace, his brow furrowed slightly, completely unaware of Qin Yinyin’s cunning.

The heat on the waitress’s face receded, and Qin Yinyin’s lips curled into a smile she couldn’t contain. She pointed to one on the list and said, "Daddy, can you eat this one? This little tiger is so cute."

Bo Yunshen didn’t respond.

Taking his silence as assent, Qin Yinyin handed the list to the waitress and sat on a stool, her heart a bit fluttery.

She fidgeted with her fingers, looking at Bo Yunshen with caution, "Daddy, our coming here for ice cream is our little secret, okay? Don’t tell Mommy, okay?"

Bo Yunshen found this slightly amusing.

He looked at Qin Yinyin with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, asking, "Why?"

"Mommy doesn’t let me eat ice cream."

Hearing her response, Bo Yunshen was rather surprised.

Qin Yan was this stingy?

The old man probably gave Qin Yan no small amount of money; being so frugal about treating a child to ice cream!

It didn’t fit Director Qin’s persona at all.

Bo Yunshen’s lips curled, and he nodded at Qin Yinyin.

Visiting Huan Le Valley had been Qin Yan’s suggestion, and Bo Yunshen hadn’t been keen in the first place, plus with a wound on his body, he was even less inclined to accompany Qin Yinyin in the outdoor activities.

Enjoying some leisure time with a cold treat, Bo Yunshen thought of the watch in Qin Yan’s hand, a twinge of guilt in his heart.

Qin Yinyin was already excited, and when the waitress brought over the cold treats, Qin Yinyin became even happier.

Clasping a small spoon, Qin Yinyin scooped up some ice cream and brought it to Bo Yunshen’s mouth, "Daddy, you eat!"
