Gain A Cute Wife By “Kidnap”

Chapter 227

C227 – Exterminated

“I apologize, my dear. I didn’t mean it that way. I didn’t scold you, please don’t cry.”

Upon hearing Shang Cijie’s sobbing, Mu Sifa realized that he had raised his voice too high and frightened Shang Cijie.

Shang Cijie had a soft heart and was easily intimidated. Despite spending five years away from Mu Sifa and experiencing many things, he had been sheltered by others during that time. In truth, he hadn’t changed much from before.

Despite his apparent arrogance and a display of strength yesterday, Shang Cijie’s actions were influenced by Xu Moyu. Xu Moyu had insisted that he needed to show his strength to Mu Sifa.

In his heart, though, Shang Cijie didn’t enjoy putting on a tough façade. However, he didn’t want to let Mu Sifa off too easily.

“Who’s crying? I’m not crying. Step aside, don’t come near me.”

Ye Zichen pushed Mu Sifa away, refusing to let him approach. Nonetheless, he remained seated on Mu Sifa’s lap and wiped away his tears.

Mu Sifa didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He was pleased, though, that Shang Cijie was still the same person and hadn’t changed.

“Alright, go brush your teeth and wash your face! It’s time to go downstairs and have breakfast. It’s already past nine in the morning.”

Mentioning the time, Mu Sifa sighed suddenly. It was quite late, and he anticipated that his mother would express disapproval when he went downstairs. After all, she hadn’t agreed to let Xiaojie stay over yesterday.

“I’ve told you two to stop quarreling! Can’t you let me have some peace in the morning? Come on, get in there and brush your teeth.”

Shang Mingming had been waiting for Shang Cijie to enter the bathroom for a while. When he finally checked, he found Shang Cijie in a rather ambiguous position on his dad’s lap.

This was unacceptable! One of them had neglected Xiaojie, while the other had been taken advantage of by his troublesome father.

This situation couldn’t continue. Shang Mingming resolved to encourage Xiaojie later to boost his spirits. He couldn’t allow his son to be manipulated by his father until he was completely bewildered, like a fool.

Shang Mingming had specifically warned him during the flight, and he had practiced for hours. When he returned, he played his role convincingly. Was he supposed to be a mermaid?

Liu Tie muttered curses while directing an angry gaze at Shang Cijie. Eventually, he shifted his glare back to Mu Sifa.

Mu Sifa felt surprised. Initially, his son had seemed gentle and adorable, but the more time they spent together, the more he realized that his son possessed a fierce disposition.

Who on earth had instilled such temperament in this child!?

Mu Sifa found himself perplexed and scrutinized Shang Mingming closely.

“What are you staring at? You stubborn father, I’m not as easily handled as Xiaojie. Prepare yourself.” Ye Zichen shot a stern look at Mu Sifa.

Mu Sifa didn’t know whether to laugh or sigh.

He decided to let it go. His concerns were focused on his mother, so arguing with a child like him was pointless.

“What would you like for breakfast?” Mu Sifa lifted Shang Cijie and approached with a warm smile.

Shang Cijie, who was suddenly hoisted up, blushed once more and whispered, “Put me down.”

Mu Sifa disregarded Shang Cijie’s request and continued moving towards Shang Mingming. He bent down, picked up the disgruntled Shang Mingming, planted a kiss on his forehead, and inquired, “If you have any breakfast preferences, just let dad know, and I’ll prepare it for you.”

Initially, Shang Mingming had displayed a haughty attitude and constantly challenged Mu Sifa’s authority. However, the moment he was lifted up, he immediately became compliant. Currently, much like Shang Cijie, his face was slightly flushed.

Nonetheless, Shang Mingming wasn’t about to appear weak, declaring, “I want dragon meat. Go and get it for me!”

Ha! Let’s see how you handle that.

Yet, Mu Sifa, being the adult, wasn’t fazed by his son’s antics. A simple kiss on the forehead sufficed to soothe Shang Mingming, who blushed so intensely that his face turned crimson.

All in all, Shang Cijie and Shang Mingming had no defense against Mu Sifa’s affection and were utterly won over.
