Chapter 410: Chapter 399: Zhan Qipei is Called Uncle and is Unhappy Chapter 410: Chapter 399: Zhan Qipei is Called Uncle and is Unhappy He caught a glimpse of the woman in the corner of his eye and furrowed his brows even more tightly.

“Can we talk now?”

He felt somewhat displeased when he saw the two children run behind his wife to hide because they were afraid of him.

When had these two children met Qiao Jing?

Was it just because he had failed to pick up Qiao Jing once that his wife had picked up two children from outside?

Qiao Jing took out a medicine box and, with the young boy, sat down by the sofa.

“Wait for them to finish bathing, and then I’ll explain to you. He has some wounds, and I need to treat them first.”

After saying that, she took hydrogen peroxide and bandages from the medicine box, ready to treat the boy’s wounds, only to find that he was still standing by the sofa.

The little boy stood there with his body tensed, looking at the sofa as if he wanted to sit but did not dare to.

“Sister, I can just wash my hands myself, it’s really not that much trouble,”

Qiao Jing grabbed the little boy’s wrist, made him sit directly on the sofa, and began treating his wounds.

“What are your names?”

When the hydrogen peroxide was poured on the wound, the boy sharply inhaled a breath of cold air.

“We don’t have names, my sister and I have been out on the streets for as long as I can remember.”

He and his sister had always survived by collecting bottles, typically going about with hungry bellies.

Qiao Jing paused in her actions and pursed her lips.

“Then how should I address you? I can’t just keep calling out ‘hey’ can I?”

Just as the boy was about to speak, his stomach suddenly made a noise.

“Gurgle—”

He paused, a slight blush spread across his little face, and he scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed.

“Sorry, Sister… I couldn’t help it, you can call me Pingping, and my sister Anan. I’m not good at naming, but I know the meaning of peace and safety.

That’s what I wish for me and my sister.”

Qiao Jing’s brows knitted, a trace of emotion flitting across her eyes as she looked up at Zhan Qipei.

“Have you cooked?”

Zhan Qipei nodded.

“It’s ready. I didn’t know when you would be back, and I was afraid the food might get cold, so I put it in a thermal container.”

Qiao Jing made an acknowledging sound, quickly disinfected Pingping’s wound, and wrapped it with a bandage.

Just as she was about to check on Anan, Anan already came out of the bathroom, dressed in new clothes.

Anan blinked her big eyes, clutched the corner of her clothes tightly, and looked down at the dress she was wearing.

A big smile spread across her face, and she couldn’t help but spin around on the spot, gently touching the dress with her hands repeatedly, as if she was afraid to wrinkle it.

She walked briskly to Qiao Jing and, without saying a word, bowed deeply.
