"How long are these two going to take, Little Lan, said that they left long ago, but these two have not returned till now?"
With a serious look on her face, Grandma Yan said with a tiny bit of uncertainty as she continued to walk to and fro within the living room.
"Mom, they should be on their way, maybe something happened and they were thus delayed, and knowing him, Qian would not want Qiqi and Jia to remain awake."
Ning Wei who was sitting on the sofa with her hands tightened into a fist clearly indicated that she was not any less worried about them not returning yet.
But right now she could only hold her worry deep within her heart and try to convince Grandma Yan.
"Little Wei, they should have given a call at least, and when I call Little Meng is not picking it up."
"Don't they know that there are people in the house waiting for them?"
Grandma Yan's eyes were filled with slight irritation as she didn't even remember the way Ning Wei had called Ye Qian was in an intimate way.
This was the first time that Ning Wei had called Ye Qian in from of Grandma Yan, but still, it was not any different from the way how a wife would call her husband.
But right now, Grandma Yan was too much engrossed in worrying about the return of Yuan Meng and Ye Qian that she didn't notice the peculiar way in this Ning Wei had called Ye Qian's name.
Meanwhile, Grandma Yan was about to call Ye Qian and Yuan Meng, when Grandma Yan heard a clicking sound.
Ning Wei who was also sitting restlessly on the sofa stood up in an instant as she gazed at the door with hope.
Although she knew that Ye Qian was very powerful but a small part of her could not help but be worried about the two after finding that they had not been back even after so much time had passed.
"CLICKKK."
The clicking sound of the door lock being opened was heard as a head peeked from the space from the slightly opened door.
The head, of course, belonged to Yuan Meng as she took a careful look at Grandma Yan's face and sighed.
"He is going to suffer a bit."
Her words were very low as if she had only said this in her mouth.
"Umm, Mom."
Yuan Meng walked in with her head low but that was when she heard Grandma Yan walk to her and pulled her into the house quickly.
"Come in quickly Little Meng, it's so cold outside and you were wearing such a thin sweater."
"Hmm."
Seeing the worried gaze in Grandma Yan's eyes, Yuan Meng felt a warmth in her heart as she smiled and nodded without saying anything.
Ye Qian also followed after a moment as he was right behind her.
"Little Qi, do you have anything to say to this old mother of yours??
Grandma Yan brought Yuan Meng behind her back and then asked Ye Qian as she stopped his path to take a step even a bit further.
"Mom...that."
Ye Qian smiled wryly as he knew that his mother was worried about them for being away for so long and he didn't doubt that she would have already called Yu Lan a few times asking when had they left and how much it would take them to come back home.
Ye Qian was about to say when Yuan Meng who was still standing behind Grandma Yan's back said in a low voice.
She knew what kind of worry a mother would have for her child and that was exceptionally true for a mother who had not seen her son for so many years and feared that anything like before would not happen to her child anymore.
And right now, that worry would most likely be represented in her rage which she didn't want.
And although Ye Qian also knew his mother's way of showing her worry, Yuan Meng didn't want Ye Qian to be scolded because she blamed herself for them arriving back home so late.
"Mom, the tyre of the taxi which we were coming from suddenly got punctured and then we had to wait for so long before we could come."
Grandma Yan gave a nod but still stared at Ye Qian with her eyes not willing to even blink as she showed her irritation.
Grandma Yan then continued.
"Little Meng, even if the tyre of the taxi was punctured, don't you and Little Qi have mobiles, do you know how many times we tried to call you two?"
As she said this, her eyes gave a glare at Yuan Meng telling her to not say anything this time.
Seeing the glare of her mother-in-law, Yuan Meng didn't dare to utter even a single word.
Although she had seen Grandma Yan glare at Grandpa Xiao, Ye Qian and many people, but she had never glared at her ever since she had married and come into Ye Qian's house.
So Yuan Meng didn't want to stand against her mother-in-law's words.
"Mom, both of our phones were in my pocket and the place which we stopped at didn't have a signal."
Ye Qian said while removing the phones from his pocket.
Ning Wei who was standing at the side looked at Ye Qian's hand and had a shocked look on her face.
'His pocket looked empty just now, and now he removed two phones?'
Although she didn't understand why Ye Qian did such a thing, but she felt that something had really happened.
She knew about Ye Qian having a magical ring which would store many things..
But normally people would keep their phones in their pockets.
And she also doubted that any kind of signal would enter that magical ring of his.
Meanwhile, Yuan Meng who also noticed this turned to Ning Wei who was a bit baffled and gave a light nod to not show any kind of change in her expression.
