Married to his secret crush

Chapter 369 - A Little Trouble

Han Sheng placed his palm on his mouth, ''Don't let anyone hear you. Since when did you become so disobedient?'' He removed his palm from the boy's mouth as he said, ''Your grandparents want to stay here and do this as well. Your training will start soon combined with your education. Despite the fact if you want to do this or not, this is not an option given to you. You have to do it,'' Han Sheng expressionlessly said as he turned around.

''On what basis are you ordering me to do this?" Han Jian Yu asked, a little hesitance remained in his voice but more than that, he was cold and unfeeling.

''I am your biological father. The man your maternal grandparents have taught you to obey,'' Han Sheng looked at the boy from above his shoulder, ''You are my only son and I love you. But, I don't like those who are disobedient to me. You have to act on my commands regardless if you like it or not.''

The 7-year old Han Jian Yu glanced at his retreating back before he walked towards the pink baby cradle. He lowered his head to look at the little girl lying in there. Dressed in a little white dress, she had her legs up in the air as she played with her toes with her fingers.

Han Jian Yu frowned. The reprimanding words that he had in his throat for her seemed to be stuck inside as he looked at her. ''You are troublesome,'' He still chastised her though, ''If it was not because of you, I would not have to leave my grandparents to come here. You are so tiny but why do you need me to take care of you?" He realized he was being childish by talking to a 10 months old baby.

So, he stopped talking and extended his hand towards her face. A little pinch should vent his frustration.

As if she sensed his presence, the little girl glanced at him with her doe-like starry eyes.

The innocence in them was so bright that Han Jian Yu could not bear to pinch her face. In the end, he just poked her chubby cheeks and they bounced back like a sponge.

Han Jian Yu's eyes turned curious, ''Kiddo, are you a fluffball?" He retracted his hand but as if she could understand him calling her chubby, she started wailing loudly.

Han Jian Yu looked around the room, waiting for her nannies to come and coax her but he did not see anyone around. As she cried louder, he panicked and looked at her with a frown, ''I just knew you were this troublesome. What do you need?" He poked her cheeks again as if he was looking for her 'Off' button.

The little girl stopped crying as she lifted her tiny fingers and grabbed his index finger.

''Clingy,'' Han Jian Yu muttered under his breath but she did not pay much attention to him as she fiddled with his finger as if she got a new toy to play with.

''She likes you,'' came a sweet voice near the door.

Han Jian Yu tilted his head to look at the person who came.

Han Suyin stepped inside the room. A soft smile made its way to her face as she looked at Han Jian Yu, ''What's your name dear?" She asked him, despite knowing it.

''Han Jian Yu,'' Han Jian Yu lowered his head.

''Look at me,'' Han Suyin said and the boy tilted his head upwards, ''I heard everything you said.'' Han Jian Yu paused, ''It's inappropriate to eavesdrop on other's conversation.''

''Little gentleman, do you mean to say that you were conversing with this little girl?" Han Suyin pointed her finger towards the baby inside the cradle.

''Kind of,'' Han Jian Yu nodded. He was the one talking so she should be on the listening side.

Han Suyin laughed, ''I apologize. I did not mean to eavesdrop. But I heard everything you said. If you don't want, you can go back to your village. Your father won't force you and I will make sure of that. And if you are staying here, then you will get to meet your grandparents whenever you want.''

Han Jian Yu frowned. Undoubtedly, this was a good chance for him to go back to village but he hesitated. Going back to the village meant he won't be able to study. If he did not study, his grandparents will have to struggle forever to make meet's end.

Within a few minutes of silence, he weighed the pros and cons in his mind.

Han Suyin stood there quietly looking at the calculative look on the boy's face. As young as he was, his maturity was reflected in his clean pair of eyes and her heart ached a bit as she looked at him. For someone of his age, did he mature too soon?

''I will stay her but stick to your words, Madam Han,'' He said as he tilted his head, ''I will take care of your daughter but you have to take care of my grandparents. Let me meet them when I want. Do not restrict me.''

Han Suyin nodded, amazed by his decisiveness, ''How do you know my identity?"

''I have seen Master Han's pictures before,'' Han Jian Yu pointed at a photo frame in the bedroom, ''You are there beside him so I only made a guess.''

Han Suyin smiled, ''Smart,'' She lowered her body to his level before placing a soft kiss on his forehead, ''For some reason, I like you a lot. I will be happy if you call me Mom,'' There was this affection towards him the moment she laid her eyes on him. It was probably because of his nature or because she found him adorable.

Han Jian Yu was stunned at her actions but he maintained a straight face, ''I had a mother,'' he said, ''She is dead.''

Han Suyin paused. Of course she knew and that's why she wanted to be his mother. Even though she could not replace his biological mother, but as long as he was here, she could take care of him like her son. And she said this in an impulse because she really liked this boy. Afraid of hurting his feelings, she quickly said, ''You can call me Aunt.''

''Will do,'' Han Jian Yu said with a straight face but his expressions weren't as guarded as before.
