“A world-class piano maestro! Good heavens! This is becoming downright dreamlike!”

“A dream… what a dream…”

The onlookers stared at Yang Qing with their phones in hand, murmuring in shock.

“Hey! What’s going on? Which side are the good guys, and which side are the bad guys?”

The two young men holding down the woman looked rather bewildered as they asked.

“Heh!” one of the onlookers replied with a chuckle. “You know about the International Musical Instruments Exchange being held at the Grand Jinghua Concert Hall this time, right?”

“Uh, yeah, I know.” The young man blinked blankly. “What does that have to do with this?”

“It has everything to do with it! Have you heard that new world-class piano masterpiece?”

“Damn it, of course I have! I heard it was composed by someone from our country. But can you get to the point already?” the young man shouted impatiently.

“Well, then you’ll understand. He composed that piece.” As he spoke, the man pointed at Yang Qing.

The two young men froze. The woman pinned beneath them was even more stunned.

All three stared foolishly at Yang Qing, who was holding the infant in his arms. The woman, in particular, looked as though her mind had completely crashed.

“Ahem…”

Yang Qing noticed the crowd looking at him with surprise, excitement, and confusion. He cleared his throat and said urgently, “I’ve already proven who I am. You believe me now, right? I need to get this baby to the hospital immediately.”

“We believe you!”

As soon as Yang Qing finished speaking, someone called out excitedly, “You’re the first person brave enough to reprimand those Japanese devils in a place like that. I believe you! I’ll take you to the hospital!”

“That’s right! We believe you, Qing God!”

The young people eagerly echoed him, while the older onlookers nodded in agreement.

“Thank you.”

Yang Qing gave them a solemn nod, then turned to Li Dongning. “Stay here and wait for the police to deal with this. I’ll take her to the hospital first.”

“Go ahead.” Li Dongning nodded. “I had Caiyu bring the car around. It’s parked by the roadside. She can take you there.”

“Okay.”

Yang Qing nodded, then hurried toward the road with the infant in his arms. From a distance, he saw Xiao Qiu’er waving to him by the roadside.

“Hey, you two—what are you waiting for?”

Yang Qing had already left. Li Dongning checked the time, then spoke calmly to the two young men restraining the woman.

“There should still be a little while before the police arrive.”

“Heh heh… Understood, brother!”

The two young men grinned, and their massive fists rose once more.

“Mmm…”

Listening to the woman’s repeated cries of pain, Li Dongning nodded with a smile. He then turned to the crowd.

“Put your phones away. No recording!”

“Heh, what are you talking about? Would I let a beast like that take up space on my phone?”

“Exactly! If she contaminated the camera, I’d have to pay to replace it.”

“Haha… My storage is already full of my wife’s pictures. How could there be room for a beast like her?”

Li Dongning’s gaze shifted toward the young man whose storage was supposedly full. After hesitating for a moment, he lowered his voice and asked, “Do you have any unmarried women?”

…

“Big brother, what’s wrong with the baby?”

Inside the car, Xiao Qiu’er wore a tense little expression as she cautiously reached out and touched the infant’s cheek.

“The baby is sick. Big brother is taking her to the hospital,” Yang Qing said, stroking Xiao Qiu’er’s head.

“Mmm. Then, big brother… will the baby get better?”

“She will. Don’t worry, sweetheart.”

“Mmm… The baby is so cute.”

As she spoke, Xiao Qiu’er gently took one of the infant’s tiny hands in hers. Her little face was filled with tenderness and concern.

Hearing the conversation between Yang Qing and his younger sister, Li Caiyu sped up a little. At the same time, she finally understood why her brother respected Yang Qing so deeply.

It was because he possessed not only talent, but character.

When they reached the hospital, Li Caiyu immediately called one of her senior classmates. Thanks to that connection, the infant was taken away for examination without having to go through any tedious procedures.

“Caiyu, thank you,” Yang Qing said with a smile, only now beginning to relax. “I originally promised your brother that I’d take you and Qiu’er out to play, but then this happened…”

“Brother Qing, it’s fine.” Li Caiyu blinked. “I think this is something meaningful.”

“Mmm.”

Yang Qing nodded and said nothing more. Instead, he looked at Xiao Qiu’er, who was holding his hand.

“You’re still worried about the baby?”

Xiao Qiu’er nodded nervously, her little voice soft and plaintive. “Big brother, where’s the baby’s mother? Why didn’t she come? Doesn’t she want the baby anymore?”

Yang Qing fell silent for a moment before answering, “Of course not. How could a mother not want her own baby? She just can’t find her right now.”

Xiao Qiu’er looked at him suspiciously. After studying his face for a while, she asked, “Was that bad auntie the one who stole the baby?”

“Mm…” Yang Qing was taken aback. Then he nodded. “Yes. How did you know?”

“White Mama told me.” Xiao Qiu’er answered seriously, “Before, when Little Bai and I wanted to run outside to play, White Mama said that we had to ask an adult to take us. She said children weren’t allowed to go out alone, or a bad auntie might steal us.”

“If a bad auntie stole us, Big Brother and White Mama wouldn’t be able to find Little Bai and me.”

As she spoke, Xiao Qiu’er snuggled tightly against Yang Qing and wrapped her arms around his neck.

“Big brother, can we help the baby find her mommy and daddy? It would be so sad if she didn’t have parents.”

“All right.”

Yang Qing nodded softly, but his heart felt unbearably heavy.

Beside him, Li Caiyu listened to Xiao Qiu’er and felt her eyes grow red. Her brother had told her about Yang Qing and Xiao Qiu’er’s past, so…

After a long and anxious wait, Yang Qing paid the hospital fees and received a call from Li Dongning. At last, the baby’s loud wailing brought him back to life.

“Fortunately, the dose of sleeping medicine the baby was given wasn’t very large, and you brought her here in time. She’s awake now. You may go in and see her.”

Li Caiyu’s senior classmate emerged from the ward and spoke to Yang Qing and Li Caiyu.

“Thank you.”

Yang Qing expressed his gratitude. Xiao Qiu’er, unable to wait another moment, immediately pulled him into the ward.

Inside, a young nurse was trying to feed the infant formula from a bottle, but the baby’s crying had left her flustered, and she could not get her to drink.

“Perhaps I should feed her…” Yang Qing offered with a smile as he approached.

The nurse paused. “You are…”

“I brought her here. Give me the bottle—I’ll feed her.”

“Oh, all right… Hehe, sorry. I’ve never fed a baby before.”

“It’s fine.”

Yang Qing smiled as he took the bottle. With practiced ease, he cradled the infant upright in his arms and began feeding her.

“Wow! The baby stopped crying! She’s drinking so happily!” Xiao Qiu’er cried delightedly. “Big brother, you’re amazing!”

Yang Qing smiled. “I used to feed you this way too, you know. And Dong’er.”

“Huh?” Xiao Qiu’er looked astonished. “Why don’t I remember?”

“You were only…”

Yang Qing had just begun to explain when his phone suddenly rang. He had no choice but to stop feeding the infant and reach for it.

The moment the bottle left the baby’s mouth, she began wailing again.

“Don’t cry, little baby. Be good. Big brother will feed you again in just a moment. Don’t cry…”

Xiao Qiu’er reached out and gently patted the infant, soothing her in her soft, childish voice.

To the amazement of Li Caiyu and the young nurse, who had been standing silently nearby, the baby actually stopped crying.

She even waved her tiny hand toward Xiao Qiu’er, her large eyes turning curiously from side to side.

“Hee-hee… Good baby!”

Xiao Qiu’er happily extended one little finger, which the infant clutched tightly.

“Qiu’er, Xi’er and Little Bai want to talk to you. Here, take the call.”

Yang Qing answered the video call. After exchanging a few words with Tan Jin’er, he was immediately overwhelmed by the two children on the other end demanding to see Qiu’er.

“Hee-hee… Xi’er! Little Bai!”

“Hiahia… Qiu’er, what are you doing? Little Bai’s grandparents have arrived! They brought so many delicious things and so many fun toys!”

Xi’er laughed delightedly. “Little Bai and I secretly saved some treats for you. Hurry home!”

“Heh heh… Excellent!” Little Bai snickered mischievously. “Grandpa and Grandma are here, so Mom doesn’t dare smack my bottom anymore. Heh heh…”

“Hee-hee…”

Xiao Qiu’er also laughed happily. “Big brother and I went to climb a really long flight of steps. We took lots and lots of pictures too. Right now, we’re at the hospital.”

“The hospital?!”

Little Bai was startled. “Qiu’er, how did you end up at the hospital? Are you sick?”

“Qiu’er, injections hurt so much! You have to be good and not get sick!” Xi’er cried anxiously.

“Hee-hee… No, I’m not sick. Big brother and I are taking care of a baby here.”

“A baby? Let me see! Hurry, let me see!”

“Hiahia… Xi’er wants to see too! Xi’er loves babies the most. I’m a big sister, you know!”

“Hee-hee…”

Xiao Qiu’er beamed as she turned the camera toward the infant, who was still sucking on the bottle.

“Wow! What an adorable baby…”

“Hiahia… Xi’er wants to hold her…”
