Qiu Xingyuan’s eyes were cold as he took a step back with his younger siblings. He pressed a button forcefully and an ear-piercing alarm pierced the sky.
A few figures instantly broke through the window, their huge fists swinging as they quickly attacked Qiu Tong!
They were the mercenaries!
Qiu Tong immediately raised her hand to block, and the few of them quickly engaged in a chaotic battle.
Ke Le and the others did not show any mercy. Their fists were vicious as they brought out their full strength against their opponent.
Qiu Tong’s eyes were profound as she leaped backwards and somersaulted out of the eye of the storm.
She spun to stand behind Ke Le, her arm coming in at an odd angle from under her ribs. Her fist went straight for Ke Le’s jaw.
Ke Le took two steps back and Qiu Tong immediately lunged forward, pinning his arms behind his back. She used her weight and momentum to throw the man to the ground, her slender fingers gripping his throat.
“Boss?”
Ke Le finally saw Qiu Tong’s face and cried out in alarm.
The others stopped what they were doing and turned on the lights. The room was brightened.
Qiu Tong let go of Ke Le and stood up, looking back at the kids.
“Qiu Xingyuan, why did you sound the alarm just now?”
Qiu Tong looked at Qiu Xingyuan with an unfathomable expression and scrutinized him.
Qiu Xingyuan’s heart was in turmoil. He turned his head to avoid Qiu Tong’s gaze and stiffly found an excuse.
“I was mistaken just now. I thought it was a bad person barging in.”
Qiu Tong raised her eyebrows. She did not expose his lie, but she found it strange.
Before she left, she felt that her relationship with the children had improved. Why did it seem like things had returned to their original state after a few days?
“Where have you been for so many days?”
Qiu Xingyuan stubbornly wanted to get the truth from Qiu Tong.
“Didn’t I tell you? Mommy went to borrow some money from relatives.”
Qiu Xingyu placed the bags on the table and carried Qiu Xingyu, who was hugging her thigh in joy. “Look, I bought all this meat. Tonight, we’ll have a feast.”
Qiu Xingyu clapped her chubby hands and hugged Qiu Tong’s neck affectionately, shouting loudly.
“Mommy is the best!”
Qiu Xingyuan lowered his head, his thick eyelashes blocking the disappointment in his eyes.
There was no truth in this woman’s words.
Qiu Tong pushed Ye Luan towards the three children.
“Come, let me introduce everyone. This is Ye Luan. He’s two years older than Qiu Xingyuan. You guys have to call him Big Brother, do you understand?”
“From today onwards, he will live with us. You have to treat your brother well and have him familiarize himself with this family as soon as possible.”
Qiu Xingyuan abruptly raised his head, his sharp gaze landing on Ye Luan’s face.
This woman actually brought back a new pet after going out for a while!
Qiu Xingqiao felt slightly uncomfortable in his heart as well. It had been a long and difficult process for Qiu Tong to finally show concern for them and stop scolding them all the time. Now, a random kid had suddenly appeared to reap the benefits.
Ye Luan met Qiu Xingyuan’s eyes and saw the displeasure in them.
Qiu Xingyu pursed her lips and stepped away from Qiu Tong. She stood to the side, aggrieved and silent.
Qiu Tong glanced at their expressions and laughed in her heart. As expected, they were still just children.
She took out the small blanket that she had prepared for Ye Luan from her bag and spread it out in Qiu Xingyuan and Qiu Xingqiao’s room.
“Ye Luan, you will sleep in this room with Qiu Xingyuan and Qiu Xingqiao from now on.”
“I’ll go prepare dinner. Go and play.”
Qiu Tong patted Ye Luan’s head and started to organize the supplies she had brought back.
Five burly men and four children. Plus she herself was a glutton.
However, as soon as Qiu Xingqiao left the room, Qiu Xingyuan and Qiu Xingqiao’s expressions changed. They looked at Ye Luan with gloomy eyes…
After a while, Qiu Tong, who had just thrown the meat into the pot, heard the sounds of fighting coming from inside the house.
She quickly walked to the door of the boys’ room. She saw Qiu Xingqiao throw out the blanket that she had just laid out, and fighting with Ye Luan!
Qiu Xingqiao had some abrasions on his body. The corners of Ye Luan’s eyes and mouth were also swollen and bruised.
Meanwhile, Qiu Xingyuan was just standing at the side with his arms crossed and watching. His eyes were fixed on Ye Luan. If Qiu Xingqiao lost, he would join the fight without any hesitation.
Qiu Tong stood at the door in a daze, looking at the chaotic scene in front of her. Her head ached.
This Ye Luan was the male protagonist. And this villain Qiu Xingqiao actually dared to fight with him. Wasn’t he afraid of being punished?!
Qiu Tong snapped.
“Qiu Xingqiao, stop!”
“I told you two to treat your brother well, but what are you doing!”
“Hurry up and apologize!”
