"Okay, whatever you say!"
Qiao Gaoyang thought to herself, "As expected of a queen who transmigrated from the apocalypse, she's really amazing. She has absolutely no interest in the types of girls that ordinary girls like."
That's how special it is!
The plan to watch a movie together was set, but Qiao Gaoyang was all sweaty from running today, so he decided not to go, otherwise the atmosphere would be ruined.
Back home, his whole family was once again focused on how his date went that day.
"Second brother, how is it?" Qiao Xinruo asked curiously. She sniffed and felt that she smelled a strange smell. When she got closer, she found that it was coming from Qiao Gaoyang. She immediately looked disgusted and said, "What's wrong with you? You went to meet Yingzi without even taking a shower. Didn't she kick you out?"
That's incredible!
Qiao Gaoyang: "..."
I'm innocent!
"Do you think that's possible?" he asked helplessly.
"Then why do you smell so bad?" Qiao Xinruo frowned. The other family members also didn't understand and thought that Qiao Gaoyang wouldn't make such a basic mistake.
There must be a story behind this.
“Smell of sweat,” Qiao Gaoyang sighed, recounting the grand occasion of his date that day. “So, that’s it, it’s all from running.”
The whole family fell silent.
Yesterday, everyone was curious and excited when they heard that the two of them had a date today, but who would have thought that they would hear such a story after returning.
"As expected of Shadow, haha..." Su Yueya laughed awkwardly twice, trying to cover for them, "Given her personality, it seems quite normal for her to do something like this and say something like this?"
Silence remained.
Qiao Shouyan patted his second son on the shoulder as a gesture of encouragement and comfort.
"No, what's the difference between you two being a couple and not being a couple?" Liu Yuying didn't understand. "Before you confessed, you two cultivated together. After you confessed, you changed to running. Isn't that the same thing?"
Could it be that running is a higher level than cultivation?
That's definitely the truth.
"Second brother, you're no good!" In front of her family, Qiao Xinruo didn't hold back, speaking her mind freely. "You two are in the same situation as before, the only difference is that Yingzi knows you like her..."
Qiao Gaoyang: "..."
"Well, no matter what, at least Shadow knows Second Brother's feelings, so that's progress," Su Yueya said, speaking up for them.
"Exactly!" Qiao Gaoyang still defended Leng Yingying's image, blaming himself for the failed date. "This date was my fault for not planning it well from the beginning. Besides, there's nothing wrong with running. That's what makes Yingying unique!"
"And we also agreed that our next date would be to see a movie, a martial arts film that she likes."
"Okay, okay," Qiao Xinruo replied dismissively, not even bothering to pretend. "You'd better really mean it, or you'll be worrying yourself sick at night..."
Qiao Gaoyang: "..."
That was some really foul language!
"Never mind, there's plenty of time. We should still encourage the second son. At least he's bravely taken the first step, which is better than doing useless work before," Qiao Hanxue said, his words of comfort sounding more like a sarcastic remark.
"Yes, everyone stop making fun of the second brother!" Liu Yuying seemed to be defending Qiao Gaoyang, but she hadn't even had time to wipe the smile off her face.
Qiao Gaoyang: "..."
"I can't be bothered to talk to you guys." He quickly ran off, making an excuse that he needed to take a shower first to wash away the smell of sweat.
"I'm sorry, little uncle!" Lu Si'an, though young, was quite shrewd. Seeing everyone laughing at Qiao Gaoyang, he joined in the fun.
Even An'an is laughing at you!
If it weren't for the fact that he smelled terrible, Qiao Gaoyang would definitely have picked up Lu Si'an and teased him, but right now he was only concerned with running away.
Su Yueya keenly noticed that the two little ones, who usually loved to join in the fun, seemed rather uninterested today. For example, when everyone was teasing Qiao Gaoyang, they just stared at everyone curiously, unlike usual when they would be very enthusiastic even if they didn't understand.
That's strange...
Su Yueya wondered if the two little ones had something on their minds.
They're only a few years old, they don't even understand what it means to be worried, right?
But as a mother, she is very sensitive to her two children's emotional changes.
So, when putting them to bed at night, Su Yueya would use the pretext of having a heart-to-heart talk to try and get information out of the two little ones.
"What's wrong with you today? What happened? Why do you seem a little unhappy?" Su Yueya asked, repeating the same questions she had given them before.
Lu Si'an held Milk and stroked its fur gently, without making a sound, but its little mouth was already pouting so much that it could hold an oil bottle.
Lu Siyuan glanced at Su Yueya, sighed, and then looked down at the milk.
Su Yueya was amused by their reaction.
At such a young age, does he really have something on his mind?
This made her even more curious.
"This is a secret between An'an and Xiaoyuan. Can't we tell Mom?" Su Yueya asked tentatively.
Lu Si'an pouted even more.
Lu Siyuan hesitated for a moment, then decided to tell his mother.
“Because of that scoundrel,” Lu Siyuan said.
Bad guy?
Su Yueya started to wonder in her mind, which villain?
It seems that the two little ones have only ever used this name to address Liu Shengrui, so did they have another conflict with him?
But that shouldn't be the case. If that were the case, her parents would definitely have told her about it when she got home today. They couldn't have kept quiet.
"Liu Shengrui?" Su Yueya asked.
Lu Siyuan nodded, then shook his head, seemingly unsure how to describe it.
Su Yueya didn't urge him, but quietly waited for Lu Siyuan to slowly organize his thoughts and speak.
“Yesterday, Grandpa took me and An’an to play in the yard.”
Lu Siyuan's ability to express himself is already quite good. At least when he tells Su Yueya something, she can understand it completely. It's just that the little one needs time to organize her thoughts and can't be as fluent as an adult.
“Look at that scoundrel, and the cat he bought.”
“Mom said I couldn’t play with him, so I took An’an to play with the other children, but I secretly saw him.”
“Hmm,” Su Yueya nodded, encouraging Lu Siyuan to continue, “And then?”
"Then, I discovered that the bastard was hitting people again, no, he was hitting the cat. He was hitting his own cat, and I saw it!" Lu Siyuan's tone became a little agitated and anxious.
"Yes, I saw it too!" Lu Si'an quickly vouched for her brother, confirming that Liu Shengrui had indeed bullied the kitten. "He hit the kitten! The kitten is so pitiful!"
Thinking of Xiaomi's weak appearance, and looking at the adorable Milk in her arms, Lu Si'an felt very sad and worried about the weak cat.
