Chapter 237 Attempting to Break
The little baby's eyes were so bright and sparkling, they melted my heart.
"Hmm, here, this is for Sweetie."
Song Xinye, a true tough guy who has lived a life of danger, unconsciously tightened his voice when he spoke.
Several male and female bodyguards nearby, including Carlos, couldn't help but get goosebumps.
But looking at that sweet and cute little face, I suddenly felt I could understand.
There's no way around it, Sweetie is just too adorable.
While everyone's hearts softened, some bodyguards had already noticed the man in the shadows behind them.
Unable to hold back any longer, I whispered a reminder in English.
"That guy behind us keeps following us, should we go and stop him?"
Carlos turned around and saw that he was staring intently at Jiang Qin and her daughter.
His face immediately hardened, and his eyes widened.
Horst glanced at it out of the corner of his eye, and briefly looked away, but only for half a second, before continuing to look.
Carlos's face darkened further, but just as he was about to go over and talk to Huo Sili, Song Xinye's voice rang out.
"Shall we go upstairs and look at some furniture? It's getting late. Once we've picked out a small sofa, Uncle and Mom will take Tian Tian out for dinner, okay?"
Sweetie held a sheep plush toy in one hand and a rabbit plush toy that Song Xinye was holding in the other.
In a great mood, she almost immediately nodded obediently in agreement, "Okay!"
Song Xinye and Jiang Qin then headed towards the elevator.
Seeing this, the bodyguards behind quickly followed.
Carlos frowned and gave Horstley a warning look before following behind several bodyguards.
The elevator doors opened, and Jiang Qin carried Tian Tian inside first.
Meanwhile, Huo Sili watched the group of people at the elevator entrance from afar, and then followed them out of the children's playground area.
But in the end, he didn't dare to follow quickly.
Instead, they wait for the elevator to stop, look at the floor it stops at, and then wait to go up to the same floor.
The upstairs furniture mall is quite large and sells a wide variety of products, from tables, chairs, and sofas to various lamps, kitchenware, storage items, and more—it has everything.
Furthermore, the classification is quite detailed; for example, there are several categories for just one type of sofa.
But after spending some time in the sofa area, Tian Tian suddenly said that there was a smell and listlessly said that she wanted to go somewhere else to browse.
It was Tian Tian who suggested buying the sofa. Although the child is indeed still young, not even three years old, Jiang Qin usually grants her daughter's every request.
However, if the child is truly being unreasonable, Jiang Qin will reason with her daughter about the matter objectively.
But the very next second after Tian Tian finished speaking, Jiang Qin also smelled an unpleasant odor.
It's a bit fishy, bloody.
Jiang Qin, who always had a keen sense of smell, immediately frowned and her heart tightened.
Then, he quickly looked around in the direction of the smell and spotted it on a nearby expensive leather sofa.
Perhaps the leather wasn't cleaned properly at the time, or perhaps Jiang Qin simply had a more sensitive sense of smell; in any case, she found the smell unacceptable.
Jiang Qin looked at Song Xinye and quickly organized her thoughts.
"Brother Song, Tian Tian and I smell something unpleasant. It's probably the leather smell from that leather sofa. I'll take Tian Tian and we'll go look around somewhere else. If you're unsure which sofa to modify, we can video chat."
Song Xinye is carefully selecting a sofa style that Tian Tian will likely like after the sofa is modified.
Upon hearing this, he quickly snapped out of his reverie, his eyes filled with worry.
"Okay, you guys go ahead and explore. I'll video call you if anything comes up."
Jiang Qin agreed and left the sofa area with her daughter in her arms.
After Song Xinye finished speaking, he quickly glanced at Carlos and the others. They received his signal and quickly followed.
Sweetie, quickly taken to the odor-free area by her mother, regained her energy.
Looking at the small toys she was holding in her arms, and then looking up at her mother, a smile returned to her face.
Jiang Qin noticed her daughter looking at her and smiling. Her body, which had been feeling a bit uncomfortable because of the smell, immediately felt much better.
But I'm still a little worried, "How are you, baby? Are you still feeling unwell?"
Sweetie shook her head, "I'm not sad anymore. I'm not sad anymore now that I'm gone."
These words startled Jiang Qin.
After saying this, Sweetie seemed to have completely forgotten her discomfort from just now.
Touching the sheep plush toy that Jiang Qin had just given her, her big eyes sparkled with joy as she looked up at Jiang Qin again.
"Mommy, Sweetie loves this doll so much! Sweetie is so happy today."
She added, "Today Mommy caught a lamb for Sweetie, and Uncle caught a rabbit for Sweetie. Sweetie is such a lucky baby!"
"Oh, and there's more."
Once the little one started talking, he couldn't stop, his bright, dark eyes shining with joy.
"Sweetie is really looking forward to her uncle making her a rainbow sofa!"
I can't wait, I can't wait...
Listening to my daughter go from only being able to say "Mom" to now having a larger and larger vocabulary and being able to express herself better and better.
Jiang Qin couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions.
Especially after hearing Tian Tian say that sentence, which sounded quite philosophical to her.
—It's not painful anymore. Once you leave, it's not painful anymore.
Yes, I'm not sad anymore. Three years ago, and now, it's true that I'm not sad anymore after leaving.
Glancing around, they arrived at the area selling storage supplies.
There's nothing here that could possibly emit an odor.
Jiang Qin noticed a rest area ahead with one person sitting there, but the other seats were empty.
He carried Tian Tian over, found a seat, took pictures of the surroundings, and sent them to Song Xinye.
Song Xinye replied with an "okay".
Meanwhile, in the same storage area, Huo Sili felt like a ghost, a persistent presence.
Just now, he witnessed Jiang Qin carrying Tian Tian and walking quickly this way.
At this moment, I couldn't help but start to worry.
Huo Sili's eyes darkened, his brows furrowed, and he cautiously glanced at Jiang Qin and Tian Tian again.
I still don't know why Jiang Qin suddenly came over here with Tian Tian in her arms.
After all, he had just seen them in the sofa area, together with that man, seemingly enjoying the sofa and getting along quite well.
But right now, she doesn't seem very happy.
Did they have a fight?
Disagreement on sofa style?
Was it that man who made her suffer?
and also.
Huo Sili's gaze swept over the bodyguards who appeared to be waiting around Jiang Qin.
At this moment, one can't help but wonder whether these people are protecting her or monitoring her.
That man named Song Xinye.
Is he genuinely just trying to be a sweet uncle, or is he simply referring to himself as an uncle, but actually...?
Another possibility made Hosley's face darken instantly upon thinking about it.
His brows furrowed instantly, and his fists clenched.
At that very moment, Carlos, who was standing to the side of Jiang Qin and Tian Tian, noticed a scrutinizing gaze coming from behind.
With his blue eyes narrowed slightly, the man raised an eyebrow and turned to look at her, his face cold.
However, the next second, I was speechless.
Why is it him again?
Carlos turned to face Horst, his eyes filled with a strong warning.
Seeing this, the bodyguards around him also quickly glanced in the direction where Horstley was.
However, they were all clear that their mission was to protect, not to take the initiative.
Therefore, after taking a look, he became more vigilant, but he did not intend to go over and "spar" with Horstley.
Sweetie sat on Jiang Qin's lap, playing obediently with two small toys.
He dubbed himself while playing house, and sometimes talked to Jiang Qin.
Jiang Qin looked at her daughter with tender eyes, and when she asked a sweet question, her daughter answered immediately.
The scene of the mother and daughter together was very heartwarming.
However, in that very instant, someone attempted to shatter this heartwarming scene.
Suddenly, Horst walked over.
Carlos's warning look had no effect.
