Xiao Cheng was the first to react with irritation. He elbowed Ye Hanchen playfully. "Move over, you blockhead. Don't you have a sister of your own?"
In his family alone, his sister had three brothers. Besides Lin Ran, now Ye Hanchen had joined the mix.
At that moment, Ye Qingzi's surprised voice came from outside the mall.
"Brother! You're back in the capital!"
Qin Shuzhen approached with a smile. "Hanchen, you're back? Why didn't you let me know in advance?"
Ye Hanchen's expression remained cold. "It's a mission requirement. It wasn't convenient to reveal."
Ye Qingzi's gaze turned frosty when she saw Gu Yang. She had overheard the conversation between Ye Hanchen and Xiao Cheng and felt that Gu Yang was trying to take her brother away.
Despite Ye Hanchen's icy demeanor, Qin Shuzhen's warmth was evident. She missed her son, who was away most of the year, and bombarded him with questions.
