Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!-Chapter 662: You’re Jealous Over This Too

After all, the news has reported many incidents of wealthy people’s children being kidnapped. Some can be ransomed, while others are directly killed.

Even if they can be ransomed, the children suffer psychological shock and physical harm after being kidnapped.

Those criminals are not good people and won’t hesitate just because they are dealing with children.

They might even beat, scold, or torture them.

Such worries are not baseless, as too many incidents have happened.

Even Chu Zhaoyang himself has personally experienced it, and because he was kidnapped as a child, he developed psychological issues.

It was only after meeting Gu Nian that he slowly got better.

Although the kidnappers’ intention back then was not money but Chu Tian Medicine’s research.

But no matter the reason, because there is something to gain with children, they might be in danger.

The little fellow immediately got nervous upon hearing it. He is not fearless and is actually very cautious.

Xiao Mo is an especially sensible kid.

Zhao Gushen saw both mother and son getting nervous and said, "Your concern is valid, which is why I had Qiu Xingwen take charge of Xiao Mo’s pick-up and drop-off early on. Usually, Qiu Xingwen takes care of it, and in the shadows, there are always two Zhao Family bodyguards assigned."

Ye Fei and Xiao Mo showed surprised expressions.

"Bodyguards too? I had no idea," Ye Fei said in shock.

Xiao Mo also said, "I’ve never seen them!"

"If you had seen them, wouldn’t it also alert the kidnappers? These two bodyguards are retired hidden guards from Lanshan compound. Not only does Xiao Mo have them, but you, I, the elders, parents, and other important Zhao Family members do too. Otherwise, why would the Zhao Family maintain so many bodyguards if they don’t come out during major events?"

"They rotate to ensure the safety of important Zhao Family members. Qiu Xingwen himself is a retired special forces soldier who became a driver for the Zhao Family."

Ye Fei took a deep breath and said, "Isn’t that overkill then?"

"It all depends on personal choice. The Zhao Family offers him a good deal, whether it’s salary, bonuses, or benefits, far beyond what he could get doing something else after retirement. Though a driver might not seem like much, it might not earn much respect when mentioned," Zhao Gushen explained.

"But Qiu Xingwen chose something more practical, not just for the salary, bonuses, and benefits promised by the Zhao Family, but also for the investment opportunities he hears about when accompanying me to various social events. He and Xiao Ruofeng have earned quite a bit from it, so even though one is an assistant and the other a driver, their earnings aren’t any less than some big company executives."

"They just don’t care much about fame, as long as the money is in hand," Zhao Gushen explained.

Ye Fei couldn’t help but laugh and said, "I didn’t expect their thinking to be so practical and steady."

Zhao Gushen said, "They both know what they want and have a clear plan for their lives."

Ye Fei couldn’t help but say, "With such steady guys, if there’s any suitable girl around, I’d want to introduce her to them. Marrying such men would certainly make one feel secure."

"What about me then?" Zhao Gushen got a little jealous.

Ye Fei praised Xiao Ruofeng and Qiu Xingwen in front of Zhao Gushen but didn’t compliment him.

Ye Fei: "..."

"You’re jealous over this!" Ye Fei said helplessly.

She was thinking of introducing girlfriends to Xiao Ruofeng and Qiu Xingwen purely because she saw them as good men in terms of character and personality.

It wasn’t out of any personal attraction to them.

Moreover, she was already married to Zhao Gushen, so why would Zhao Gushen be jealous?

"Because you praised them but not me?" Zhao Gushen felt aggrieved.

"..." Ye Fei had no choice but to quickly say, "Because you’re the best, that’s why I married you, and then I’d introduce girlfriends to people not as good as you but still nice. But for you, I need to hold on tight so no one else takes you away, right?"

Ye Fei really knows how to cheer up Zhao Gushen now, knowing exactly what to say to make him happy.

As soon as she finished, Zhao Gushen showed a satisfied smile.

Ye Fei: "..."

Xiao Mo never expected that at just four years old, he would have to endure such a blow.

Every day he is filled up with dog food at home.

These two parents don’t even think to avoid such behavior in front of their child—truly excessive!

Xiao Mo hurriedly ran to the bathroom, wanting to throw up to calm down.

Of course, he didn’t actually throw up, but he did calm down significantly.

He then returned to the living room to remind them, "Don’t forget, we were still discussing the kidnapping issue just now! It’s been such a short while, and you’ve veered off topic so far."

Ye Fei "..."

This little guy talks about kidnapping as if it’s child’s play.

Zhao Gushen cleared his throat and said, "In any case, with Qiu Xingwen, a retired special forces soldier, protecting Xiao Mo, it’s definitely sufficient. Whether it’s his martial abilities, counter-surveillance, or surveillance skills, they are quite impressive. Even if a group of criminals wanted to snatch Xiao Mo from him, it wouldn’t be easy."

"While it might be difficult for him to take on many at once, safely bringing Xiao Mo back is feasible. Plus, with two retired hidden guards always ready to assist, there’s basically no big problem. They can also detect danger early and stay vigilant."

"As for you not seeing them, it’s naturally to prevent you from feeling uneasy. It also stops those criminals from taking precautions. Not just for you, even the elders and parents, as well as my hidden guards, are all in the shadows."

Ye Fei thought about it and realized it’s true.

Since getting to know Zhao Gushen, and meeting the elders, Zhao Dinghuan, and Chi Jingsi, Ye Fei had never noticed the presence of bodyguards around them.

But logically speaking, for people as important as them, with such a vast family and wealth behind them, they are bound to catch attention.

It’s improbable they don’t take any precautions and simply go out without a care for potential danger.

Zhao Gushen then told Ye Fei, "You guys shouldn’t feel uneasy either. Everything will remain as it was before—they won’t affect our lives."

Ye Fei nodded.

Xiao Mo also said, "Got it! I’m quite at ease, and it makes me feel really safe! Please ensure the bodyguard uncles continue to protect me!"

"..." Zhao Gushen thought for a moment and added, "Tomorrow, let’s all go together to take Xiao Mo to kindergarten. Then we can tell the teachers and the principal not to allow anyone other than our family, Qiu Xingwen, or Xiao Ruofeng to take Xiao Mo away, no matter how they claim to be connected to him."
