Back For My Daughter-Chapter 31 - Let Me Go, Please!

On the road to the market, Ye Qian walked at high speed while constantly looking at his watch.

'I heard yesterday that Qiqi likes dumplings a lot.'

He was smiling as he walked to the supermarket.

Ye Qian entered the supermarket and was greeted by the lady whom he gave tip yesterday.

The lady smiled and greeted him while nodding.

Ye Qian smiled and asked.

"Where can I find the things needed to make dumplings?"

"Sir, you can have the things needed to make dumplings at the tasty section."

The lady answered as she pointed in the direction.

Ye Qian thanked her and walked in the direction.

As he was walking he saw the toy and bags section and looked around a bit.

'Hmm, Butterfly liked the Panda toy bag is there something like that here.'

Ye Qian thought as he rubbed his chin.

He looked around in the bags section and was disappointed to see that there was no such bag there.

"I think I need to go to that shop to buy the bag."

"Or how about I bring Butterfly and Mengmeng here tomorrow for buying some new clothes since there is no school tomorrow."

"That would be better, hehe I will see buy my butterfly the best clothes."

Ye Qian sighed and turned started walking.

After about 15 minutes he picked all the things and went to the counter to pay the bill.

"Hello, sir. Did you got what you were looking for?"

The lady asked as she started to sort the things and was busy with billing.

"Yes, the market has clothes and other woman stuff right?"

Ye Qian asked her suddenly as she was picking the flour bag.

The woman looked at him in a daze for a second thinking.

'Is he trying to ask me in such a manner?'

The woman blushed as she went into her imagination.

Ye Qian looked at her as her face was turning red.

"Miss are you alright?"

He waved his hand and asked.

The woman shook her head and asked.

"Shouldn't you wait until I get free to ask me for a date?"

The woman said with her head lowered as she was blushing all over.

"En?"

'When did I ask her for a date, is she mad or deaf?'

'Besides I have Mengmeng why would I ask you?'

"Miss, you seem to have heard something wrong? Ahem"

"I was saying I want to bring my daughter and wife here tomorrow, so I was asking if there were clothes for women."

"Ah"

The woman was shocked and nearly shouted it out.

'Oh he was asking for his daughter and wife, I am such an idiot, I have embarrassed myself.'

The woman's skin turned a share darker than before.

"Miss, I think you should look for a doctor?"

Ye Qian said as he watched her turning redder.

"Um no, there is no need and yes there is a section for clothes n the floor above this floor is used as a grocery and other markets."

The woman said not willing to lift her head as she continued to place the last packet of sauce in the bag.

"Here the total is 125 Yuans you can come tomorrow if you want to buy clothes but there might be many people."

Ye Qian took two 100 Yuan notes and handed them to her.

"Yes, thanks for helping."

She quickly handed him the change of 75 but Ye Qian took the 70 and kept the remaining on the table and thanked her again and started walking to the entrance.

The woman looked at his back and took the 5 Yuans and smiled.

He could have taken advantage of me but he didn't.

"Ah! I am such an idiot!"

She sighed and turned to her table.

"Yes, you really are an idiot!" 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖

Another voice came from behind as she turned.

__________

Ye Qian turned to walk towards the meat and fresh vegetable market which was not far from his current location.

As he was walking he suddenly felt something wrong.

He turned to look around.

There was an eerie silence.

'Em what is wrong here.'

He looked around again but this time with his acute senses he found seven people who were coming towards him from all the roads surrounding him.

There were fwo from front, two from right and two from the left road.

While there was only one person who was walking towards him alone.

They all wore a big hat and a thick jacket.

Ye Qian felt something amiss and looked at them.

They could not be called normal as they had a ferocious aura around them.

Ye Qian breathed lightly and asked as they were about 20 feet away from him.

"So why are you guys following me?"

His voice was calm as ever.

The people coming from front, right and left road were stunned at his question and exchanged glances.

While the one who was behind Ye Qian smirked.

"Weren't you the one selling the charms at The Ancient Relic Market for 50,000 Yuans?"

"Yes so what?"

Ye Qian answered them without another thought.

"Hehe how about be do a business?"

The man behind asked while rubbing his hands together.

This time Ye Qian was shocked as he looked at the man who was mostly covering his face with the hat.

'What he wants to buy my charms did he somehow understood something about them.'

Ye Qian thought as he straightened his back.

"Sure, which charm do you want?"

Ye Qian said as he pulled his bag.

"Well the business is that you give us the money and we let you go away safe and sound."

The man continued as he smiled and stepped closer to Ye Qian.

Ye Qian looked at him again and then as if suddenly enlightened, sighed.

"People really don't like to earn in proper ways."

As he said he closed the bag and started walking.

"En?"

Ye Qian had walked about ten steps when the people snapped back.

"You think you can run away?"

The man who was behind Ye Qian who seemed to be the leader shouted.

Ye Qian turned to him and shook his head.

"You really want to do this, I want to take Butterfly back home, Mengmeng would be back soon. And I have to buy some meat to make the dumplings."

Ye Qian sighed as he looked at his watch.

"Can't you guys just let me leave? Please."

"If you want to leave then hand over all the money or you won't be walking."

A person coming from the right side spat.

'What a fool does he think he can just walk around after meeting us. Hehe.'

The others thought as they sneered at Ye Qian.

"You shouldn't do this to me."

"I need to make the filling for dumplings."

Ye Qian looked dejected.

The people had their mouth agape as they heard him.

The leaders mouth twitched as he looked at Ye Qian.

'You want to make dumplings, sure you can go but hand the money to us man, do you think you can handle all of us?'

All looked at him as if they were looking at a new type of creature.

'Doesn't he understand that we are threatening him.'

Ye Qian looked at them and asked again.

"If you guys want I can give you some money but let me go now."

With that Ye Qian fished out 1000 Yuans and waved at them.

The leaders face was red now as his body shivered.

'Do you think we are beggars.' 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖

"Boys take him out, he has a lot of money and make sure to break one of his leg. Never have we been so much disgraced."

The other six nodded at him and started walking towards Ye Qian in big strides so as to not let him run.

"Sigh"

Ye Qian sighed.

"I wanted to you to cause less trouble for me but you don't seem to appreciate kindness."

Ye Qian shook head again.

"It's going to be late."

Ye Qian turned to the one coming from his right side and slapped him in the face.

The man felt like he was hit with a bat on the head and was send flying to the other who was just a hand behind him.

The other stumbled and fell on the ground after receiving the person flying towards him.

He tried to catch him but was hit hard due to the force and fell on the ground unable to keep balance.

The leader looked at Ye Qian and shouted.

"Surround him from all sides and hit him hard."

The remaining four people surrounded Ye Qian from all sides and ran towards him.

Ye Qian walked to the person who was lying on the ground and caught his legs and lifted him.

Ye Qian swung him around and hit the other four coming at him.

The two were hit hard on their stomachs and were curled the ground while the other two were pushed to the walls behind them and hit their backs hard and fell unconcious.

Seeing all his men were fallen the leader looked at them and brought his hand to his belt and tried to fish something out.

A moment later he took a military knife and swayed it at Ye Qian.

"You think you can harm me I have a knife here!"

Ye Qian looked at him in shock and said with his eyebrows raised.

"You know I am in a hurry and I can allow you to leave. If you want."
