Chapter 1519 – Get Together 1

“Rouer?” Dongfang Gan froze for a moment and then looked at Dongfang Liuyun. “Why did she go to you?”

“She heard that I’ve resigned from the university. She was, of course, worried about me. If that’s not it then what else?” Dongfang Liuyun responded unconcernedly. She hesitated for a second, then poured all the vegetables on the plate into the wok, and continued saying, “My mother has always been very wary of them, especially this time when there’s such a big movement. It’s always good for us to come up with plans earlier. I’ll personally attend Uncle’s 60th birthday. Dongfang Rouer came over and told me about the party.”

“It’s not news that they’re unfriendly to you, so why bother delivering your head to the guillotine?”

“It’s a thing that I should face sooner or later, so if I don’t even dare to face it now, then what else can I accomplish after this? Dongfang Rouer will definitely want to peek at the cards that I hold during this period so that she can get a hold of my details, thus please take good care of me when the time comes, Father.”

“I know that. Don’t you worry.” Dongfang Gan inhaled and then nodded.

...

When Song Siting came back, the dishes were just ready and were served on the table. The family of three sat down at the dining table. In fact, for their family, a meal with all three members of the family around was hard to come by since Dongfang Liuyun was hardly home and her relationship with Song Siting had always been rigid. Although Dongfang Gan did his best to smoothen things out, the relationship between the mother and daughter was still...

After dinner, the sky was already dark. Dongfang Gan’s assistant, Ah Fei, delivered the documents. When Dongfang Liuyun did not stay for another second and left the house directly, Song Siting and Dongfang Gan sent her out together.

“Liuyun, just listen to me. Move back here and stay with us so that it’ll be easier for us to take care of each other.”

“Your father is right. This is what I hope for too. It’s better for you to move back to stay with us. Go back and pack your luggage. I’ll get them to go over and pick them up in another few days,” Song Siting ordered her directly.

“If you really want me to do these things, let me have a few more quiet days.” Dongfang Liuyun lifted the thick folder bag in her hand and glanced at the couple, and before they could react, she had already gotten into the car and ignited the engine.

“Hey, Liuyun!” With a frown, Song Siting looked at the car that was driving away and could not help but sigh. “Why is this kid always like this? I advised her to do so only for her own safety. Isn’t it obvious that I worry about her?”

“Alright, don’t overthink. Our daughter’s temper has always been so, hasn’t it? And you, don’t always talk to her so aggressively. She’s not your subordinate, hence there’s no need to be so harsh on her. Besides, we do owe her that, so can’t you just talk to her a tad bit more nicely?”

“Then, why don’t I see her talking to me more nicely? Do you think I do so just to make myself happy?”

“In my opinion, you’re still doing it your way! Okay, I won’t quarrel with you anymore. Just do whatever you want.” Dongfang Gan knew Song Siting’s temperament, so he rolled his eyes and then turned around to walk back into the mansion.

“Hey, I didn’t mean that. What do you mean by I’m still doing it my way? You’ll have to clarify this. Explain it to me. I...” Song Siting listened and turned around to chase after him.

...

In the Grand Lake Villa, it was the same silence in the dead of the night.

Qi Lei’s stiff features finally eased up after checking the last set of data in the notebook. He then took the cell phone on the side, made a call to Yang Sheng, and briefly explained a few matters about work. After hanging up, he wanted to cook himself some supper, but unexpectedly, Mu Yuchen called.

“What’s the matter? You miss me?” Qi Lei and Mu Yuchen had naturally become very close with each other, so he teased directly after the call went through, but to his surprise, it was Xi Xiaye who was calling.

“It’s me. It’s an off-day tomorrow. Mu Yuchen and his brothers are playing poker at the barbecue, and Su Chen and the others have just arrived. He asked me to call you. Do you want to come since you live nearby,” Xi Xiaye’s faint voice said from the earpiece of the cell phone.

Barbeque and poker?

Qi Lei gave it a thought and responded, “I was just thinking about making myself supper, so of course, I won’t say no to that invitation.”

“You still haven’t eaten? At this time?” Xi Xiaye creased her brows and asked.

“It’s been hectic recently. I’ve gotten used to it. Anyway, I’m heading out now.”

“Great, I’ll get Sis Wang to make you some pumpkin porridge.”

“Alright.” Qi Lei grabbed his car keys and left his study after hanging up the call.

...

In the backyard of Maple Residence, in front of the barbecue grill, Li Si was skillfully flipping the skewers in his hands, and the rich and mouth-watering aroma was hovering all over the yard. Under the flower racks of the pavilion on the side, Mu Yuchen was holding a handful of poker cards, battling it out with Zhou Zimo, Su Chen, and Ruan Heng. Mu Yuchen was as elegant and enigmatic as usual. His poker skills were naturally good, and after a few rounds, Su Chen and Ruan Heng had lost quite a few pennies.

“Dada...”

“Yes.”

Mu Xiaocheng, who was sitting in his arms, kept his head outstretched and stared at the poker cards in his father’s hand as if he knew what they were.

“Now, what’s this, son? Do you remember this?” Mu Yuchen tightened his embrace while drawing a card from the pile and showing it to Mu Xiaocheng. He asked him to recognize the suites.

Mu Xiaocheng’s glistening eyes widened as he stared at the cards in front of him for a long time. He then shouted, “Dada!”

“Oh my, you little dunderhead, you’re just like your mummy. Everything is your Dada now. Now tell Dada, what card is this?” Mu Yuchen rubbed his tiny head with a frown and then asked.

“Flower...Flower eight...” Mu Xiaocheng stared at the card for a long time before blinking his eyes at Mu Yuchen and replying.

Having heard that, a satisfied grin flickered on Mu Yuchen’s face while Su Chen stretched his arm out and pinched Mu Xiaocheng’s chubby cheek gently. “Boy of wonder!”

“Ah Chen, I think your son is as brilliant as you were when you were a kid.” Zhou Zimo also smiled while reaching out to hold Mu Xiaocheng’s hand.

Mu Xiaocheng was only one and a half years old, and he could basically walk steadily. He was already able to utter words quite clearly with a wide vocabulary. He also had a magnificent memory. It was like he had inherited Mu Yuchen’s extraordinary brain. On the other hand, Xi Xiaye was the person who had been losing everything. She had already forgotten where she left her purse or bag several times. It was Mu Xiaocheng who magically found them out of nowhere while staggering or crawling around, then brought them to her.

The lives of Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye had always been very harmonious, and it had been very peaceful over the past six months. They had even flown over to City B and visited Mu Lingshi while she was in confinement after her labor. However, after considering the inconvenience to Mu Lingshi, Mu Yuchen finally agreed to Xi Xiaye’s idea and they had since then adopted Qi Weier.

Qi Weier stayed in Maple Residence now, where Xi Xiaye even got a room decorated in a warm-colored princess design especially for her.
