Zhou Jinjiang chuckled and said, “Lord, you don’t think Xiao Xiao would think of it herself as long as I don’t bring it up? Is that even possible?”
“Sigh...” Cheng Biyuan had not unfurrowed his brows in days. He had worried so much that he appeared much haggard than he normally was.
The two stopped their chitchatting and starting taking care of the official businesses.
After Cheng Xiao Xiao walked out of her father’s study, she headed toward the guest quarters.
Luo Junhao and Gong Zixuan, now that they were officially a couple approved by the elders, were spending every minute of every day with each other. As though falling into a jar of honey, the two of them could be seen together everywhere.
“Uncle,” called out Cheng Xiao Xiao as she walked toward them. Seeing that the two were playing chess, she smiled, “I see that Uncle and big sister Zixuan are busy at each other’s throats. I wonder who is going to take the victory?”
“Xiao Xiao is here,” said Luo JunHao as he nodded to her.
Gong Zixuan looked up and said proudly, “I win most of the time, of course. Shi xiong Luo is not very good at chess. He can hardly beat me!”
“Are you sure he didn’t let you win on purpose?” Cheng Xiao Xiao couldn’t help but teased her.
“That’s not true...” Miss Gong was unhappy right away and said to the one in front of her in a coquettish way, “Shi xiong Luo, you tell her. Who wins most of the times? Hurry up and tell her!”
“Tsss,” said Cheng Xiao Xiao was a look of distaste. “No need to show off how in love you two are anymore. Valentine’s Day had already come and gone. Nobody’s here to watch anymore.”
“Huh? What is Valentine’s Day?” asked Miss Gong, baffled.
“Ugh. Never mind.”
Cheng Xiao Xiao had no intention to elaborate on that subject. She pulled out a few items from her dimension ring, handed it over to her uncle and said to him, “Uncle, take these and hurry up and cultivate behind closed doors. Otherwise, your mother-in-law would grumble to me when all the others in the family have become martial emperor when you are still martial king. I don’t want her to talk my ears off.”
Luo JunHao chuckled and accepted the items. After all, they were family and he was aware that his wasn’t the most talented and could use a lot of outside help. “Your uncle thank you, Xiao Xiao.”
“No worries, Uncle.”
Cheng Xiao Xiao raised her brows and pointed at the chess board and said, “C’mon, Uncle, shape up and crush your wife for me. Show her who’s the boss and show some masculinity. Don’t let her walk all over you!”
“Cough, cough, cough...” Luo JunHao was speechless.
Gong Zixuan turned beet red and, her eyes widened, and she said, “Little sister Xiao Xiao, should I repeat this to Shi xiong Mo, so he could also...”
Then she couldn’t go on. She felt so shameful that she didn’t know what else to say!
“Go on! Don’t stop now! I want to see you repeating that to Abacus!” said Cheng Xiao Xiao smugly. “Let me tell you, I will just say that to him myself. No need to trouble you for that. You don’t have what it will take to say that out loud.”
“You... you....” Gong Zixuan felt so shameful that she was speechless.
“HAHAHA...”
Cheng Xiao Xiao laughed as she turned around and walked away.
Looking at Cheng Xiao Xiao’s back, Gong Zixuan stomped her feet and called out, “Cheng Xiao Xiao, you little brat!”
“You are welcome to be as bratty as I am!”
Cheng Xiao Xiao’s playful words made Gong Zixuan laughed.
Gong Zixuan’s face was delicate like that of a flower. As her eyes moved, she looked tender and delicate. Her one charming look almost made the “old uncle” leaped into action.
Old Mrs. Luo has arrived!
She hugged and cried with her daughter Mrs. Cheng and wouldn’t stop saying her name. Cheng Xiao Xiao, on the other hand, merely looked at this touching drama coldly from one side. Her emotions impossible to read from her look.
