Chapter 81 [VIP]

"Is Dad pretending to be a ghost at the door?"

Xiao Liang opened the door and looked up at Xiao Chuan as if he were looking at a big, clueless fool. “Mother is already asleep. She’s been working hard every day lately and is very tired. If Father needs to find Mother, he should choose a time that won’t disturb her rest, instead of standing at Mother’s door late at night and scaring people.”

Xiao Chuan was surprised to see Xiao Liang there. Looking at his chubby, serious face, he reached out and pinched his cheek.

"It's getting more and more verbose."

Xiao Liang was taken aback when Xiao Chuo pinched his cheek. His mother usually liked to pinch his and his sister's cheeks, and his uncle and aunt would occasionally do the same.

But Dad never made that gesture.

This gesture seemed a bit too intimate for the father and son.

Xiao Liang covered his face awkwardly, not noticing what Xiao Chuan said: "Since you've been trying to please me, Father, I'll allow you to see Mother for a moment. Be quiet and don't wake her."

"Pinching you is considered flattery?"

Xiao Chuan lowered his voice as he walked into the house.

Xiao Liang whispered beside him, "Yeah, I think Father likes me more and more."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chuan paused for a moment, looked down at Xiao Liang, and saw that his round black eyes were bright and piercing. He was not afraid of Xiao Liang's gaze, but instead looked at him more seriously, expecting him to say something.

Xiao Chuan stepped forward again and hummed in agreement.

Mi Yao was right. He did indeed have the idea of ​​crawling out of the ditch after seeing the bright moon hanging high in the sky casting its silvery light.

Xiao Liang and the others changed because of her, so why can't he also get everything he never had from her?

His affection was indeed for his own pleasure, and he felt that she was already the biggest winner because she could make him have such delusions, and should try her best to make him happy, instead of taking advantage of his love and being unpredictable towards him.

Walking to the bedside, Xiao Chuan stared at Mi Yao's sleeping face, wanting to reach out and touch her.

Xiao Liang, who was standing nearby, leaned over the edge of the bed and whispered, "Mother is so beautiful."

As she spoke, she casually reached out her chubby little hand and pried open Xiao Chu's outstretched fingertips.

"Just look at it, don't touch it and wake your mother up."

Xiao Liang was met with a sudden rise in his gaze. Xiao Chuan not only picked him up, but also picked up Xiao Shan, who was fast asleep on the inside of the bed, and carried them back to Ting Song Courtyard, one in each arm.

Having dealt with the smaller one, Xiao Chuan finally got to touch Mi Yao's face as he had wished.

And then, he remembered putting Xiao Liang on the small bed and Xiao Liang's reminder.

"Father, if you like Mother, don't make her angry. Mother can only kiss you first, you can't secretly kiss her."

As Xiao Liang spoke, he stared intently at Xiao Chu's mouth.

He overheard his parents talking behind closed doors, and it was always his father kissing his mother. He realized how unfair that was.

Compared to her father, her mother clearly liked him more, just because her father could sleep with her at night and was very strong. So her mother didn't know how many times her father had secretly kissed her.

"Mom only likes good girls."

Thinking of Xiao Liang's irritating expression, Xiao Chuan leaned down to kiss Mi Yao's lips, but before their lips touched, he raised his head, took a cold shower, and then obediently went to sleep next to Mi Yao.

When Mi Yao woke up the next day, she felt someone next to her. She closed her eyes and touched him, feeling his well-defined abs, and knew who it was. Just as she was about to close her eyes and go back to sleep, she heard a man's hoarse voice say, "Give me a kiss."

Mi Yao thought she was hallucinating from being half asleep, but the next moment she heard, "If you don't want a kiss on the lips, can I kiss your cheek, anywhere is fine."

His husky, magnetic voice was both suppressed and pleading.

Although the voice was still the same, the emotions it conveyed felt unfamiliar.

Mi Yao originally wanted to close her eyes and pretend she couldn't hear, but she could feel Xiao Chu's almost tangible gaze on her, and his strange request kept replaying in her mind.

She opened her eyes and looked up; Xiao Chuan was indeed staring intently at her.

However, his sharp brown eyes were different from usual; they weren't as aggressive, but the longing in them wasn't much better.

Her eyes were burning with intense flames, almost burning her up completely.

She hadn't forgotten what she'd said to him yesterday, and it was precisely because she remembered that she felt puzzled.

She thought he would be dissatisfied with her attitude and continue the cold war with her, or mock her for being greedy. Who would have thought that he would choose to come to her bed and play the role of a large dog who really wanted to lick her, but was afraid of making her angry and restraining his nature.

Seeing Mi Yao open her eyes, Xiao Chuan moved his body downwards, and Mi Yao's hand, which was originally on his lower abdomen, slid to his chest.

"May I?"

Their eyes met, and Mi Yao felt that as Xiao Chuan asked the question, even the muscles in his chest twitched with excitement.

Pulling her hand away from her restless hand, Mi Yao rolled to the side: "No."

After saying that, she didn't look at Xiao Chuan, waiting to hear his angry voice, but after waiting for a long time, she didn't hear it.

Before going to wash up, he asked Mi Yao another question.

She stopped again, but who knew he would come out and ask again. Before leaving the room, he sat on the edge of the bed, looking at her with a demanding gaze for a moment before stepping out of the room.

"This is absolutely insane."

Trick: Covering herself with the quilt, she planned to continue sleeping, but she had been waking up early these past few days, and with Xiao Chuan disturbing her like that, she couldn't fall asleep no matter what she did.

After cursing Xiao Chua in her heart, Mi Yao sat up fiercely.

What kind of stimulation?

Mi Yao came out of the courtyard and saw Pu Qing, and asked him.

She had anticipated that Yu Jiayin would come knocking on her door, knowing that the Yu family members wouldn't get anything good from her and would instead place their hopes on Xiao Chuan.

So when she saw Xiao Chuan take the initiative to meet people, she immediately hid.

If Xiao Chuan can drive them away with his words, that would be good. But if he can't, then those few members of the Yu family will be his responsibility. He will have to take care of their food, drink, and daily needs, and also help them realize their family's grand plan.

Yesterday, she had other things to do when she returned to the mansion, so she forgot to ask Xiao Chuan how he dealt with it. If he hadn't been acting strangely today, she would have forgotten about it altogether.

"The magistrate was not traumatized."

Pu Qing thought back for a moment and couldn't think of anything that could have upset his master yesterday. "If there was anything that could have upset him, it must have been Madam Yu. She was detained by the government and was only released an hour ago."

"oh."

Mi Yao became somewhat interested.

After hearing Pu Qing say that Xiao Chua defeated Yu Jiayin in just a few words, and that after Yu Jiayin was imprisoned, Yu Chengda ran around everywhere, barely sleeping all night, trying to find connections to get her out of trouble.

Mi Yao couldn't help but chuckle as she passed by the Xiao residence several times without daring to knock.

She still had to be forceful; if she said a few words, Yu Chengda would use filial piety to control her.

If Xiao Chuan were to show no mercy now, even if the two weren't facing off directly, Yu Chengda would probably cower in fear just hearing about the treatment Yu Jiayin received.

Because she thought Xiao Chuan had done a good job, Mi Yao met his gaze during the meal and subconsciously gave him a friendly smile. Little did she know that this smile would cause a problem, as the searching look in Xiao Chuan's eyes intensified.

Touching the smile on her face was like receiving some kind of signal. He kept putting food on her plate and watched her eat with longing eyes, as if urging her to finish quickly so that they could find a secluded place for him to pounce on her and excitedly lick her.
