“Auntie Qin, we were just pulling your leg, don’t take us too seriously…” Little Bean immediately admitted defeat.
“Now’s not the time to joke around, you guys scared me to death! I’m going to tell Chu and Mian when they come home, you guys are screwed,” Qin Ning said as she got up in a huff and stormed away.
“What should we do? She seems really angry at us this time,” Little Bean said worriedly.
“Yes, she is.” Pudding nodded.
“So, do you think we went too far?” Little Bean asked, feeling guilty.
Pudding didn’t respond…
“Pudding, Little Bean, you shouldn’t have left without telling anyone. You almost gave me a heart attack. We were so worried! Plus, no one even saw you guys leave the premises.” Qin Chu’s uncle was still recovering from the twins’ sudden disappearance.
“Grandpa Qin, we’re really sorry… we avoided the security cameras on purpose when we left… we made sure no one saw us because we didn’t want Auntie Qin and the bodyguards to find out.” Pudding bowed down her head apologetically.
“What if something happened to you guys? What are we supposed to tell your parents and grandparents? Did this not cross your minds?”
“We didn’t think that far, we just wanted to buy something and quickly come home… we didn’t think it would take so long,” Pudding said earnestly.
“I’m just glad you guys are home… or else the entire LAPD would be out there looking for you,” Qin Chu’s uncle sighed in relief.
“Grandpa Qin, I’m a little hungry.” Little Bean walked up to Qin Ning’s father, trying to charm herself out of trouble.
“Gosh, Little Bean, I thought you’d forget about food.” Qin Chu’s uncle pinched Little Bean on the cheek and immediately turned to the butler. “Make some food for the girls.”
“Yes sir.”
“Wait, I want Chinese food. Can you tell the kitchen that I want deep-fried sweet and sour fish, broiled pig hocks, green onion shrimp, and… deep-fried mushrooms and borscht?” Little Bean seemed to have a great appetite.
“Can you eat that much?” Qin Chu’s uncle was dumbfounded.
“Of course I can! I eat just as much at home! Whenever our chefs see me…” Little Bean went on to console Qin Chu’s uncle; she wanted him to pick and choose what to tell their parents. She was okay with her daddy finding out since he always spoiled them, but if their mommy found out… they would be completed screwed.
The twins had both experienced how scary their mother could be when she was angry.
So, Little Bean glanced over knowingly at Pudding, who immediately headed upstairs to console Qin Ning, who was for sure going to sell them out.
Grandpa Qin was very soft-hearted and loved the twins, so he was easy to deal with. So, Qin Ning was the issue here – plus, she was so scared that she would definitely want them to learn a lesson.
When Pudding arrived upstairs, Qin Ning had just washed her face; her eyes were swollen from crying.
Qin Ning was a very brave girl who rarely teared up, ever since she was a girl. She was the kind of person who wanted to be perfect at everything; it was a state of mind that made her the youngest member of GK Corporation’s board of directors, and that attitude gave her the ability to decide on various investments.
However, two three-year-olds scared her into tears today…
“Hey, Auntie Qin…” Pudding poked her head into Qin Ning’s room.
“Go away, I don’t want to talk to you.” Qin Ning turned her head away angrily. She was worried about them for four full hours! Each minute crawled by as she wondered if the twins were safe.
To her anger, the twins circumvented herself and all the security just to go shopping! Of course she was furious!
