Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 1900: Chapter 1894: Being a Door Guard

When Qin Xue and the others arrived at the research institute, it was still early as it was the time when others were at work.

"Vice-chief, you’re back," the guard greeted Ye Xuan when he saw him.

"Hmm, where’s Mr. Ye?" Ye Xuan replied, holding his daughter in one arm.

"In the office, I suppose. Haven’t seen him go out," said the guard, who hadn’t seen Ye Xiao step out today, so being in the office was the likeliest possibility.

"Alright, thank you." Ye Xuan nodded, then headed to the office with Chu Molin and the others.

"Reporting in." Ye Xuan appeared at his father’s office door with his daughter in his arms.

"You brat, coming back without promptly returning to your post, and bringing a baby here—how are you supposed to work like this?" Ye Xiao was reviewing some documents when he heard the report. Looking toward the door, he saw it was his own son. Already annoyed that he hadn’t returned to duty promptly, the sight of him holding a baby truly fanned the flames.

"Mr. Ye, I brought her here especially to see you. If you don’t want to meet her, I’ll just take her away." Seeing that his father was angry, Ye Xuan pretended to take the child away.

"Wait, what do you mean? Are you threatening me?" Ye Xiao was indignant at the thought of being threatened by his own son—what face would he have left?

"Mr. Ye, can’t you calm down first? Do you know how much effort it took me to bring her here? If you don’t want to see her, I’ll just send her back to her mom. Just don’t nag me about how other families have added grandsons or granddaughters anymore." Ye Xuan didn’t understand why his father was so agitated today.

"What nonsense are you spouting? Make yourself clear, what do you mean?" The more Ye Xiao heard, the more his son’s words seemed off.

"It’s just as you heard, take it or leave it. Anyway, I’ve done my best to bring her here, but her mother, I simply can’t bring." Ye Xuan admitted he was also helpless. That woman wasn’t like other women. Instead of sticking around like others might, she kept her distance—how frustrating.

"You’re saying this baby girl is from the Ye family?" Ye Xiao looked at his son in disbelief.

"That’s right. I unexpectedly have this little girl, and it took a lot of effort to bring her here. Do you want her or not? If not, I’ll take her away." Ye Xuan was pleased with his daughter’s fearless demeanor.

"Of course, I want her! Did you bully that girl?" Ye Xiao wanted the child but also reprimanded his son. Having a child before marriage—if he hadn’t bullied her, how else would there be this little one?

"Dad, while that might be true, it wasn’t intentional or deliberate. I only found out yesterday that I had a daughter." Ye Xuan had never met a woman like Qing Zhu. Others flocked to their family’s status, but she wanted to flee, and as far as possible. It was rather disheartening.

"No matter what you say, you did bully her. So when are you bringing her to marry?" Ye Xiao moved in front of his son, wanting to hold the child but hesitated awkwardly, leaving Ye Xuan anxious for him.

"Dad, Yuran doesn’t bite. What are you afraid of?" Qin Xue and Chu Molin stood at the doorway, observing the three generations inside with a smile.

"Qin Xue, come in, what are you doing at the door? And you too, brat—why didn’t you bring your wife in? Standing there like the guardian of the gate?" As soon as Ye Xiao saw Qin Xue and Chu Molin, the disdain towards his son was gone, replaced with a different tone, making Ye Xuan want to curse.
