After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 341

Chapter 341: Daddy Qin’s Jealousy
“Dad, come quickly,” Qin Bei urged as he saw him standing still.

“I’m coming.” Qin Yan glanced deeply at Yu Ze, shaking his head inwardly. Impossible. That person had disappeared for a long time.

Without much thought, he ran towards Qin Bei.

Yu Ze also noticed his gaze, his eyes flickering slightly.

Qin Lie walked over, impassive. “If needed, I lure him away.”

It was obvious who he was referring to.

Both Qin Yan and Yu Ze were familiar with him.

Upon hearing this, Yu Ze shook his head. “Thank you, but it’s unnecessary.”

Since entering here, he hadn’t been afraid of being recognized.

Once, he had indeed feared being recognized, afraid of the rumors and disdainful gazes, preferring to hide in the darkness. But after three years, it was time for him to emerge.

Glancing at him and seeing his calm demeanor, Qin Lie nodded slightly and said no more, leading Zhouzhou away.

Zhouzhou looked at him in confusion, having heard his words. Tilting her head, she asked, “Dad, does Third Uncle have a grudge against Uncle Yu? Why does he want to avoid him?”

Qin Lie shook his head, not explaining much to her, only saying, “They know each other, and your Uncle Yu may not want to see acquaintances.”

“Oh, I see,” Zhouzhou said, looking puzzled. Qin Lie raised his hand to pinch her chubby cheeks, his lips curling slightly. “It’s okay, let them sort it out themselves; it’s not a big deal.”

“Yeah!” Zhouzhou nodded, seeing her teacher urging them, she immediately pulled Qin Lie towards the area.

In a typical family setting, it’s usually parents and children, and each leg of the relay follows this configuration.

When it was Zhouzhou’s turn, the teacher hesitated because she had two dads. But men and women naturally have different physical strengths, so comparing Ye Lingfeng to other moms wouldn’t be fair.

Sensing her hesitation, Ye Lingfeng spoke up, “I’ll delay my departure by one minute.”

This was a 3×100 relay race; normal adults could complete the entire course in a minute. By delaying one minute, was he that confident?

Upon hearing this, the other parents instantly had no objections; they all felt that one minute would be enough for them to widen the gap.

Ye Lingfeng remained calm and unconcerned, showing no signs of worry.

The teacher nodded and led him to the starting position for the third leg.

As the whistle blew, the race began. Zhouzhou immediately dashed out like a little cannonball, so fast that before anyone could react, she had already dashed past, her lucky pigtails almost becoming a blur, stunning everyone.

Turning to look, they saw a chubby little figure had already run a hundred meters, handing the baton to Qin Lie.

The parents around, still amazed by Zhouzhou’s speed, watched as she ran. This chubby girl ran as fast as professional athletes!

Seeing their gaze, Zhouzhou didn’t mind, bouncing and saying, “Dad, go for it!”

Qin Lie, who exercised regularly, was naturally not slow. Coupled with Zhouzhou’s incredible speed, he quickly opened up a long distance.

By the time he handed the baton to Ye Lingfeng, the other children had only run halfway.

Ye Lingfeng casually played with the baton, glancing at Qin Lie with disdain. “You’re running really slow.”

Qin Lie knew he was referring to himself and ignored him, feeling bored. Ye Lingfeng shrugged and stopped talking to him.

After waiting for a while, all the batons had been passed to the second leg, and the speed suddenly increased.

A teacher next to Ye Lingfeng was timing him for a minute, and seeing the fastest, Xiao Lan, was only a dozen meters away from the finish line, she became nervous.

Zhouzhou stood anxiously on the side, watching.

Ye Lingfeng, however, remained calm at this moment, playing with the baton as if it were a toy, not at all anxious. He teased Zhouzhou, “Zhouzhou, if I win first place this time, can you call me dad?”

Zhouzhou’s eyes were fixed on Xiao Lan; she had no time to think about this. She casually replied, “Sharp tongue uncle, you go ahead and win first!”

Just then, the teacher began the countdown: “Three, two, one, time’s up.”

Before the words had finished, a gust of wind blew, and as the teacher looked over, she saw the previously nonchalant man suddenly rushing out like a released arrow. In the blink of an eye, he surpassed several parents.

The speed, unexpectedly, was even faster than Zhouzhou’s!

Zhouzhou also widened her eyes in surprise. The next moment, she jumped up excitedly. “Sharp tongue uncle is so amazing!”

Several of Qin Bei’s friends, including Huo Ji’an, were beside her, panting heavily. They hadn’t recovered yet, but upon hearing the sound, they followed her gaze, their faces showing admiration. This was too fast!

As they watched the finish line draw near, Xiao Lan suddenly heard footsteps behind her, feeling a sense of unease. Before she could accelerate, a tall figure had already crossed the finish line ahead of her.

It was Ye Lingfeng.

He had won.

“How amazing!” came Zhouzhou’s excited voice from nearby, clapping her hands vigorously, her little face flushed with excitement.

Qin Lie also watched him, reluctantly admitting that if it were him in the third leg, he might not have been able to surpass even with a one-minute delay.

In this regard, Ye Lingfeng was indeed impressive.

Hearing his daughter’s voice, Ye Lingfeng shook his head, his eyebrows raised slightly.

He walked over to the little girl, not out of breath or red-faced, and raised his hand to flick her forehead, asking, “Am I impressive?”

“Impressive! Very impressive!” Zhouzhou’s eyes sparkled as she looked at him, not hesitating to give him two thumbs up, happily massaging his legs.

That flattering look, nothing like the disdain from before.

Ye Lingfeng felt quite proud, raising his chin with pride.

If Chen Tuo and the others were here, they might be quite disdainful.

The mighty war god participating in a kindergarten relay race and being proud of winning first place?

Of course, proud. His little girl had been eagerly anticipating the first-place prize. If they missed it, she would be upset. On the contrary, if he helped her win first place, her affection would be undeniable.

Was he competing for first place? It was for his little girl!

He bent down and hugged the little girl. “How about calling me dad?”

At his words, Zhouzhou’s eyes rolled, her chubby hands covering her ears tightly, pretending to be deaf. “Sharp tongue uncle, what did you say? I can’t hear you.”

This little rascal.

Ye Lingfeng couldn’t help but chuckle at her antics, leaning over to plant a kiss on her chubby cheek before letting her go. “Go play.”

Huh? He let her off so easily?

Zhouzhou looked at him in surprise, tilting her head.

Seeing through her thoughts, Ye Lingfeng snorted confidently. “One day, you’ll change your mind.”

Full of confidence in his words, Zhouzhou giggled and made a face at him before running off.

Qin Yan looked at him somewhat incredulously, feeling annoyed. “Isn’t this the big shot descending to the newbie village? It’s so unfair!”

They had almost won first place!

Hearing this, Ye Lingfeng didn’t feel guilty at all. “I even gave them a minute.”

Blame it on their own incompetence.

That’s the truth.

Qin Yan was unwilling to accept it, just a little short of winning.

As for the next games, as Ye Lingfeng had said, as long as it wasn’t related to music or drawing and there was no little anchor like Zhouzhou dragging them down, it was a piece of cake to win first place.

Especially in activities related to physical strength, it was simply Ye Lingfeng’s solo performance.

Zhouzhou was ecstatic, clapping her hands vigorously, realizing for the first time how impressive Sharp Tongue Uncle really was!

“I’m done playing,” Qin Yan said, panting heavily, waving his hand. “This guy’s stamina is too scary.”

He’s basically a perpetual motion machine.

Hearing this, Qin Lie didn’t say anything, watching the two of them throwing sandbags in the field.

The rule for this round was to throw sandbags, with one person throwing and the other catching in a bucket. Catching counted as one point.

Zhouzhou had good aim, and Ye Lingfeng was strong. They didn’t need to coordinate; it was effortless for them to throw and catch.

As expected, they won first place without any surprises.

The father and daughter hugged each other excitedly, and Ye Lingfeng threw Zhouzhou up in the air, catching her steadily. The little girl was very brave, laughing gleefully.

The sound of her innocent laughter entered Qin Lie’s ears, and his heart felt a little sour.

For the first time, he understood what it felt like before Ye Lingfeng, and it was truly uncomfortable.
