Xiao Su looked at Yan with a gentle gaze. Under the lights, he looked more affectionate as his deep emotions for her reflected in his eyes. Yan did not know it before, but now that he had expressed his heart’s desires, she could actually see it now. After it became evident, Yan took two steps back in shock. Then, she turned around. “You should go out.”
“If you don’t want to be in the same room as me, I’ll go out first.”
What she did not know was that after she turned around, the light in Xiao Su’s eyes had quickly faded. After speaking to Yan, he turned and left the kitchen.
Bang! After the kitchen door was closed, the surroundings returned to a calm state and it was only then that Yan turned back around. She stared at the door for a while, then withdrew her helpless gaze. Xiao Su was a pretty good person, but she could not force her feelings just like she could not force Han Qing’s. Thinking about this, Yan took a deep breath and she only exhaled after a while. She then lowered her head to wash the vegetables.
After Han Muzi pulled George out, he instantly became like a curious baby. “Muzi, you and Yuchi already have a child together? What does he look like? Is he at home? Can I see him? Oh my God!”
Han Muzi did not know what to say. The person in front of her was so excited as if he was becoming a father. She could not help but frown. “Why are you so excited?”
When she put it like that, George realized that he seemed to be overly excited. He scratched his head in embarrassment and said with a smile, “I’m just happy for my good friend. Besides, I only knew that you and Yuchi were in a relationship. I didn’t know that you guys had a child. How old is he?”
“Five years old,” Han Muzi said. After thinking about it, she thought that it was not right and corrected, “After Lunar New Year, he’ll be six years old.”
After finding out the age, George was speechless. It took a long time before he finally found his voice, but it was hoarse. “He’s already so big! That’s so fast. It doesn’t seem right!” He patted his head and had a look on his face as if he had just discovered the New World. “When you were talking to me about it, you guys were only discussing your marriage. It was at that time when Yuchi Shen had his accident. It hasn’t been that long since then. How can there be a six-year-old child?” Speaking of this, George had a very dramatic plot in his head. He scared himself and stared at Han Muzi with widened eyes. “Unless, this kid… isn’t Yuchi’s?”
Han Muzi was speechless. She was stunned by his mysterious ways of thinking. She was curious about how he came about this thought. Before she could explain, a voice rang out.
“Little Young Master was delivered before this. Sir, you can eat whatever you want, but don’t just say whatever you want.”
Han Muzi looked over to where the voice came from and found that Xiao Su had come out. Is he not helping Yan in the kitchen?
When he met Xiao Su’s gaze, George immediately narrowed his eyes to look at him. Before, he was still wondering about Xiao Su’s identity. Now that he had spoken, George realized. “So you’re from the Yuchi Family.”
Yuchi Family. Xiao Su knew that Ye Moxuan was now known as Yuchi Shen, so when he heard George talking about Yuchi Shen, he could guess that he was talking about Young Master Ye.
He did not answer, so George looked back and smiled while saying, “I really want to see Yuchi’s child. He should call me ‘uncle’, right? Where’s the child, Muzi?”
Han Muzi said, “Little Bean isn’t here now. He’s with his great-grandfather. If you want to see him, you can go to the Yuchi residence to see him.”
George immediately chickened out as he heard this and waved his arm. “Then it’s fine. I’ll meet him when I have the chance. Grandfather Yuchi will surely give me a lecture if he catches me visiting the Yuchi residence. He might tell my grandfather my whereabouts, then I might be restricted again. You’re heading back to China in three days; I would not be able to accompany you all if I’m going to be restricted again!”
Speaking of this, George started whining again after thinking of the hell of a week he had gone through. Han Muzi had heard about it on WeChat before, so when she noticed he was about to start ranting again, she smiled slightly and said, “I’ll go to my room and take a nap.” Then, she left George and went back to her room.
George was speechless. Am I toxic? Does Muzi really dislike me so much? Boo-hoo… However, with Han Muzi gone, was there not another person in the living room? As such, George turned to Xiao Su. For some reason, when George looked at him, a cold sweat covered Xiao Su’s back.
“What’s wrong?” Xiao Su raised his eyebrows.
George walked over and slung his arm over the other’s shoulders. “Brother, you’re from the Yuchi Family, right? Are you free now? Let’s have a chat!”
Xiao Su raised his eyebrows and could not help but lift the corner of his lips a little.
Soon after, Xiao Su listened as George vented his bitter feelings. He was almost unable to control the muscles on his face. George had put it nicely by saying that he wanted to have a chat when in fact, he wanted to talk about his past. Xiao Su was a good listener. He sat opposite George while listening to everything he said without making a sound because he had nowhere to go.
When George was done talking, he felt at ease and realized that the person sitting opposite him was still sitting there without moving. Feeling touched, he sat over and hugged Xiao Su with tears in his eyes. “Man, you’re pretty cool. You didn’t leave even after I said so much. What’s your name? We’ll be good brothers in the future!” After speaking, George reached out his hand and started hammering his own chest. He was signaling Xiao Su to do the same.
Xiao Su shot him a sideways glance, twitched the corners of his mouth, and said, “Xiao Su.”
“Xiao Su? What a nice name! My name’s George. From now on, we’ll be brothers.”
Xiao Su did not know what to say.
“Are you and the girl from earlier a couple? No, I don’t think you’re a couple. Seeing that you keep protecting her, it must be that you like her?”
Xiao Su pursed his lips and asked while feeling displeased, “Do you have a hobby of inquiring about other people’s private affairs?”
“Hey, don’t say that. This is not inquiring; it’s showing concern!” George corrected him solemnly.
Xiao Su choked and could not say anything.
“Since we’re brothers, then it’s only normal that I show my care and concern for you, right?”
Xiao Su turned his head and pushed his hand away. “What do you want?”
“What’s wrong? Are you afraid that I’ll snatch your woman away from you? Let me tell you; I, George, will never touch a friend’s woman, let alone a brother’s! Besides, I will only get involved with a woman when it’s consensual.”
Xiao Su was speechless. Listening to this person’s tone, he couldn’t help thinking, This person seems promiscuous and somehow seems proud of it too? How did Young Master Ye come to have a relationship with this person? Furthermore, it seems that Han Muzi treats him well too.
