Chapter 24 Little Devil
Chapter 24 Little Devil
Looking at Baby Shang's determined expression, three black lines appeared momentarily on Hui Yin's forehead.
She was totally speechless at this little bun's public display of affection.
Baby Shang, we have an eighteen-year age gap, okay...
Hui Yin glanced fearfully at the small head still sleeping on Jiang Xu's right, hoping that Little Wuji wouldn't wake up as well. If that little troublemaker woke up, it would inevitably result into a disaster for her...
The pot and the food they ordered finally arrived, but because Baby Shang's small hand was holding onto Hui Yin's hand tightly, Jiang Xu had to serve them the dishes. When everything was finally settled, the three of them looked at the only sleeping head on their table.
"Should we wake him up?" Hui Yin finally asked.
"We shouldn't wake him."
Jiang Xu wanted to eat peacefully, so he didn't want to wake him up.
Hui Yin looked troubled. "But he's probably hungry..."
Baby Shang shook his head vehemently, his small face looking apprehensive.
No, no, no! Wuji must not wake up. Wuji will steal Wifey!
Thinking of that, the little bun gripped her hand even more tightly.
Glancing at the two brothers who would willingly abandon their own flesh and blood, Hui Yin decided that this type of filial betrayal was against her morals. She reached out and gently shook the shoulders of the other little bun, successfully waking him up.
Little Wuji yawned and blinked his eyes open, looking up at the face smiling in front of him. His eyes immediately widened.
Wifey!
Staring up at Hui Yin, Little Wuji looked like a thunderbolt had struck him. He carefully raised his hand and poked his soft little finger on her left cheek.
Not a dream!
Wifey's here!
He instantly held out his small arms to her, his little face looking expectant.
Wifey, hug! Hug me!
Baby Shang shot his twin brother a glare, and buried his face deeper into Hui Yin's embrace.
No, Wifey is mine!
Little Wuji finally saw his own twin brother hugging Hui Yin like a koala, and his expression darkened. All of a sudden, his four year-old body emanated an aura of dangerous hostility...
But the instant Hui Yin looked at him again, she was only met with a pair of pitiful eyes. Little Wuji stared sorrowfully at her like he was a pet being abandoned by a heartless owner.
"Alright, come here then."
Hui Yin gave up.
Baby Shang froze, and Jiang Xu looked down at Little Wuji with an unreadable expression as well.
There it was, the legendary one-second face change of this little devil!
Only in front of Hui Yin would this little devil look completely harmless...
With both two little buns on either side of her and Jiang Xu sitting far away like an outcast, the four of them started to eat. Since it had been a long time when they last met, Hui Yin started reminiscing about their time in the university.
"You're engaged?" While passing Hui Yin a fishball, Jiang Xu suddenly asked her this question.
Little Wuji and Baby Shang stiffened, looking up at Hui Yin suspiciously. Wifey, did you cheat?
Hui Yin was a bit taken aback, but then slowly nodded. "Yes...but I think we're going to break up soon."
Jiang Xu paused while eating, and looked at her. "Why?"
Hui Yin shrugged. "I don't think we're meant for each other."
After a moment, she added, "Let's stop talking about this, okay?"
Jiang Xu looked down. Something flashed in his eyes, so quickly that Hui Yin didn't notice.
"Mmm."
Hui Yin felt relieved. As much as Lu Shen had hurt her in her past life, there was a small part of her that still didn't want to let go of him. Although she knew that she was doing the right thing by breaking the engagement, and that Lu Shen loved Nian Zhen more than he would ever love her...
Her hand involuntarily clenched, making Baby Shang glance up at her curiously.
"Wifey?"
Hui Yin sighed, forcing a smile. "I'm alright. Let's just continue eating."
Baby Shang nodded and looked relieved, but Little Wuji's eyes narrowed.
Somehow, he felt that someone was being mean to his Wifey...
