Tuantuan immediately burst into tears upon hearing this. "I'll go back right away. Tell Mom not to be sad. She's still the one I love the most."
"You'd better hurry back. Also... your Ming Dad is here and with your Mom," Ling Che said.
No one was unafraid of Ling Ming, including Ye Tuantuan. Hearing this, Ye Tuantuan immediately became nervous. "He... why is he here?"
Gu Yunting, who had come to find his daughter, happened to overhear Ling Che and her conversation. Ye Tuantuan had put the call on speakerphone, so he heard everything clearly. Who was that man?
"He probably misses your Mom. They're getting married soon, so he's likely taking some time to sort that out," Ling Che said.
"Then I'll go back immediately. Do you think I'll be punished?" Ye Tuantuan was genuinely a little scared.
"It doesn't look like it. You should come back first, and we'll talk about things when you get here." Ling Che was afraid that if he said too much, Ye Tuantuan would be too scared to return, which would be troublesome.
After Tuantuan hung up the phone, she turned and ran out. Seeing her father, she rushed over and hugged his leg. "Daddy, please take me home quickly. My Mom is sad, and I want to go back to be with her. Also, my Ming Dad is here, so I need to go back."
"Alright, I'll take you back." Despite his reluctance, Gu Yunting had to take her back. He didn't want her to be unhappy.
He picked up the child and walked out. Sun Ma saw this and quickly asked, "Where are you going? The food is all ready. Aren't you going to eat before leaving? Isn't the little lady staying here?"
Sun Ma looked at the father and daughter with a mixture of anticipation and worry.
"Grandma Sun, I need to go home to see my Mom. Mom is unhappy, and I need to go back and comfort her. I'll come back another day to eat your cooking," Tuantuan said tearfully.
"Oh, alright. Then hurry back and don't make your Mom unhappy. Your Mom has it tough, so you must comfort her well." Sun Ma saw them off at the door and felt a sense of emptiness as the car drove away.
She clasped her hands together. They had finally managed to get Ye Wan back, but it seemed she was having another spat with the young master. And now the little lady was back, but she couldn't stay at home.
Sun Ma couldn't quite understand. Ye Wan and the young master had known each other since they were children. How could she be so heartless?
Gu Yunting personally drove Ye Tuantuan home. When they arrived, Gu Yunting insisted on going up with Ye Tuantuan. Ye Tuantuan hesitated. She knew Ming Dad was there, and if her father went, would they get into a fight?
"Daddy, maybe I'll come to see you another day. I'll go up by myself first," Ye Tuantuan asked tentatively.
"I'll take you," Gu Yunting insisted. Ye Wan was drunk now. What if that man took advantage of her vulnerability?
Although he felt he might be overthinking things, she already had a child... but he just didn't want that.
Ye Tuantuan had no choice but to agree. Gu Yunting carried her upstairs, and Gu Ye followed with the bodyguards.
But she was still very nervous. She was afraid that if Ling Dad was so fierce, would he hit her father? She had only just found her father and didn't want him to be beaten.
"Daddy, if Ling Dad hits you, you run. He's very fierce!" Ye Tuantuan said.
"Did he ever hit you?" Gu Yunting asked, frowning.
"No, but he punished me. Whenever I made a mistake, he would punish me severely! He would make me stand facing the wall." Tuantuan thought that was still very scary. Actually, the main reason was the psychological shadow left by seeing Ling Che get whipped. Ling Ming had only ever made her stand facing the wall and had never even deprived her of meals.
