44 Bully

In his house, Ye Qian stood like a rod in a daze trying to digest what his daughter had just said.

He glanced at Yuan Meng who was blushing beside him.

Little Qiqi held Yuan Meng's hand and pulled her toward the bathroom.

"Mumma let's go quickly, Qiqi wants to play with Mumma after that."

Yuan Meng nodded while she held her head low and follow her like a cat.

Though it looked weird for her to follow Little Qiqi like that she couldn't say anything now because she was also dumbstruck.

"Click."

Little Qiqi pushed the door open and went in with Yuan Meng.

Seeing them walk into the bathroom and after hearing the sound of water falling Ye Qian shook his head and sighed.

He walked into the kitchen with the bag in his hand and started to take out the things he bought.

After he arranged everything properly, Ye Qian rubbed his chin while thinking.

"I don't think it will be good to make too heavy a snack after some time Yuan Meng's friend will also come so."

'Yeah! Egg rolls will just do the job fine till then."

With that, he started to chop cabbage and other vegetables like carrots, capsicum and some of the chicken which he brought from the old man.

After chopping the vegetables, Ye Qian started to cook them in boiling water.

While the vegetables were boiled Ye Qian took a bowl and started to make the dough for the rolls.

After a few minutes of exercising with the dough ball, Ye Qian left it for a few minutes in the refrigerator.

While he was done with it the vegetables were cooked and Ye Qian strained them and left them to dry out a bit.

After a few minutes, he turned the stove on and placed a pan on it while pouring a spoon full of oil and mixing the boiled vegetables and chicken in it and stirring it every now and then.

He had made these egg rolls many times when he was in the lesser heaven, they didn't need much work and were easy to make, this was also the only thing he also knew how to make after going to the cultivation world.

Thinking of all that Ye Qian looked out of the window and sighed.

"My disciples, you have to live on your own, your master is selfish and can't be with you, I am really sorry for not understanding you Qing'er, but you must know that I can't have you."

"You must take care of yourself. I am really a bad master."

Ye Qian sighed again as he thought of the crying faces of his disciples.

A drop of tear fell down his eyes as he shut them.

Ye Qian breathed out.

"Qing'er really loved to eat the Egg rolls that I made for her."

As he remembered, Ye Qian looked at the still-lit sky and smiled.

"If the world wants us to meet again, we will meet for sure."

"And I don't think it will be much longer."

'But that is if I find a way for that.'

Thinking of this Ye Qian sighed again.

Meanwhile, as Ye Qian mumbled to himself, Yuan Meng had walked to the kitchen wearing her bathrobe.

Seeing him sighing and then smiling and then again sighing while looking at the sky Yuan Meng didn't know how she should react.

"Qian'er is anything wrong?"

Yuan Meng called out as she could no longer see him like this.

"Umm."

Ye Qian turned around and smiled.

"Nothing."

Hearing him though Yuan Meng felt a bit good, she knew Ye Qian was trying to hide it from her.

She took light steps towards him and placed her hands around his waist as she dug her head into his chest.

Ye Qian was suddenly greeted by a sweet musky scent that came from Yuan Meng's body as she clung to him.

Yuan Meng still had her hair wet and it further increased her scent.

Ye Qian could not understand and gently patted her back with his left hand as his right was still busy holding the wooden spoon.

"I know you will tell me the things that happened to you these years later but, there is really no need for that since you have come back, and that is the only thing that I want."

Yuan Meng mumbled as she could feel Ye Qian's calm heartbeats.

She knew Ye Qian would not hide things from her but she didn't want him to think that he needed to explain his absence.

She was content with what she had now.

"Umm Mengmeng."

Ye Qian called out as he bought his hand from her back and adjusted her wet hairs which were coming in front of her eyes and lips.

Yuan Meng looked in his eyes as he gazed at her gently with love in her eyes.

The eyes which could only be described as enchanting had a magnetic attraction in them. As one looked at them they seemed to be sparkling as she glanced at him.

Yuan Meng's eyes were glistening as she saw the one she loved, he was always gentle to her and never tried to keep her in the dark about whatever he did.

He was back for her and still held her dear.

"Hmm."

She nodded at him as he called her.

She had the desire to hold him tightly and place her head on his chest like before, forever.

Ye Qian smiled at her and said.

Yuan Meng had close her eye and was about to bring her lips to his when.

"Mengmeng, I think the vegetables will burn out if you hold me even for a little more time."

Ye Qian said as he pursed his lips and looked at her apologetically,

He felt that this was the worst time for him to say such a thing when Yuan Meng was in such a romantic mood.

But what could he do, Little Qiqi had told him that she was hungry and thought, while Yuan Meng didn't say anything, he knew she was also feeling empty in her stomach, it was just that because she used to skip dinner that she wasn't able to tell it.

Hearing him say about vegetables, Yuan Meng didn't know whether she should laugh or cry for him.

Though she was amused in her heart, she didn't want Ye Qian to take her lightly either so she pouted her lips while taking a step back and turned her back to him as she crossed her hands under her chest and harrumphed.

"Humph"

She had thought that Ye Qian might try to console her after she turned her back and would hug her from behind.

But things didn't happen as she had thought.

While she was thinking about how she will behave like a little girl and act spoiled in front of Ye Qian and throw a tantrum at him, a playful smile appeared on her lips.

Ye Qian didn't even say a word and turned to the frying pan getting himself busy with adding the spices and salt to the egg roll filling.

After waiting for quite a while and not noticing any movement from Ye Qian, Yuan Meng thought.

'Did he feel so bad, how come he is not here to console me? Did I act a bit too much?'

While Yuan Meng was blaming herself for acting too much, Ye Qian had finished with the filling for Egg rolls and was transferring it to another bowl.

As Yuan Meng turned to look around for Ye Qian she was baffled and her eyes almost popped out in disbelief.

Ye Qian was standing with his back towards her while he seemed to be dancing as he nodded and shook his body in rhythmic styles.

"Sniff sniff."

'He didn't even care for me and went to cook. Is this what I will get, oh god, this dummy, he is bullying me.'

Hearing the sniffing sound Ye Qian placed the pan back and turned back,

He was feeling sad for not being able to console Yuan Meng and so to lighten his mood he thought of a song.

But after he was done he wanted to go to Yuan Meng and continue what she wanted to.

Yuan Meng was feeling wronged as the corners of her mouth turned down.

It was as if a little child was being bullied by an adult.

Ye Qian looked at her with a pang of guilt as he knew it was all because he didn't give her some attention before.

Ye Qian started to walk toward Yuan Meng who was staring at him like a lost little girl.

He closed the distance between them and slowly reached his hands around her waist as he curled the hands around it and planted a gentle kiss on her head.

"I know, I should have been concerned about you first."

He said as he gently brought his hands to her face and held it tenderly as if he was holding a flower he carefully slid the hairs flowing on her face behind her ear and placed his forehead against her and looked into her eyes passionately.
