Out of brotherly loyalty, Ye Mingshi bravely broke the awkward atmosphere, "Um... Jiu Yunchi, could you get me some eggs?"
Jiu Yunchi did indeed hear it.
He looked at the egg, then picked it up and handed it to Jiu Zhongsheng, who passed it to Jiu Shiyi, who then passed it to Ye Mingshi.
When Ye Mingshi received the egg, she paused for two seconds.
After being handled by three people, how was he supposed to eat it...?
So he peeled off the egg white and ate only the yolk, explaining, "I only like to eat egg yolks."
Then he noticed that the atmosphere at the dinner table remained somber.
After Jiu Shiyi raised that question, he kept studying it. After looking at it several times, he finally realized and said, "Brother-in-law, those are teeth marks on your neck?"
Upon hearing this, he felt a sudden gust of cold wind blowing from the right side of the room.
Sitting to his right were Jiu Zhongsheng and Jiu Yunchi.
Ye Mingshi slapped Jiu Shiyi on the head, "You think you have good eyesight? Why do you talk so much?"
Jiu Shiyi seemed to realize something. He stared at Mu Jin and gradually understood.
Teeth marks!
The brother-in-law's teeth marks, were they left by my sister?
Even the little fox Jiu Shiyi couldn't help but blush and get nervous. When doing things, he could act like a mature adult, but when it came to matters of love, he was still a pure and innocent young girl.
He suddenly realized that his words had put his brother-in-law in the spotlight.
"I must have misread it, haha..." Jiu Shiyi tried to salvage the situation, but then the scene became even more awkward...
Ye Mingshi downed his coffee in one gulp, grabbed Jiu Shiyi, and headed out. He decided it was best to leave; he didn't want to be cannon fodder here.
Jin Er, brother, I believe in you!
Jiu Shiyi turned around, wanting to tell Mu Jin that he really didn't mean it! But Mu Jin didn't even look at him.
Throughout the entire meal, Mu Jin ate his breakfast without any distractions, then wiped his mouth and looked at Jiu Zhongsheng and Jiu Yunchi across from him.
“I will take responsibility,” he said.
His words only made things worse, as they made Jiu Zhongsheng and Jiu Yunchi's expressions even more terrifying.
Originally, Mu Jin had already made them hateful enough by taking away their family's treasure, but after they started living together, the Jiu family became cold and deserted again.
They endured it all to keep the cat happy.
But Mu Jin's current behavior is practically stealing their treasure and then blatantly showing it off!
“Maomao’s surname is Jiu, and she will always be a member of the Jiu family. Even if you are in a hurry to take responsibility, I, as her father, am not in a hurry to marry off my daughter.”
Jiu Zhongsheng suddenly said.
If it were anyone else, "taking responsibility" would be the most basic requirement. However, in Jiu Zhongsheng's case, they don't want Mu Jin to rush into taking responsibility.
The cat is no longer home. If he takes it to the Mu family, it might forget about its own family altogether!
Jiu Zhongsheng felt a little guilty. He had been investigating Ziying's whereabouts all day and hadn't paid enough attention to Maomao. Mu Jin must have taken advantage of the situation.
Jiu Yunchi pursed his lips. Although he knew that some things were inevitable, he still felt that Maomao had been bullied and that she had definitely suffered a loss.
There is absolutely no room for negotiation on this matter; Mu Jin is definitely a beast.
He even selectively ignored the tooth mark, refusing to think about how it appeared.
Jiu Yunchi: "You've only been together for half a year. Dating takes time. If Maomao likes you, you can continue dating. There's no need to mention anything else."
Jiu Yunchi was even more ruthless, completely ignoring those two words.
Mu Jin glanced at the two of them, smiled faintly, and his temper seemed to have suddenly become very good. He seemed to obediently say:
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
His attitude surprised both Jiu Zhongsheng and Jiu Yunchi.
It's like when they're fighting the enemy with all their might, but the enemy suddenly surrenders.
However, after a moment of surprise, the two were quite satisfied.
Mu Jin, however, was quite content, and he looked outside.
Ye Mingshi stood under a tree, glancing over every now and then. He probably wanted to see them fight.
Is he really that bad? How could he not even be able to handle this kind of relationship?
Ultimately, Jiu Zhongsheng and Jiu Yunchi are just being overprotective of their own.
They love cats, and he doesn't object; anyway, they can't stop anything.
However, the things the old lady wanted to arrange early on were definitely just wishful thinking on her part.
Just then, the cat came downstairs, yawning as she walked over. "Good morning!"
The chef quickly brought the reserved breakfast to the cat.
The cat took a few sips of juice, then looked at Jiu Yunchi and said, "Xiao Chi, you're here."
Jiu Yunchi also looked at the cat, his gaze subtly sweeping over her neck and arms, secretly relieved.
Thankfully, there were no teeth marks or bruises.
Why aren't you eating?
Mu Jin said, "I've finished eating."
The cat looked at Jiu Zhongsheng and Jiu Yunchi, "And what about you two?"
They ate half of it, then got so angry they were full, so there was some left over.
Hisayuki picked up his now-cold coffee and continued drinking it.
Jiu Yunchi also picked up his knife and fork and ate his bacon.
Cat was slightly puzzled; the atmosphere seemed a bit strange. So, she looked at Mu Jin questioningly.
Mu Jin patted her head and repeatedly told her that everything was alright.
Knowing there would be many people today, he didn't leave any obvious marks on her body; if he had, the conflict would have escalated.
Ye Mingshi suddenly ran back because he saw that the cat had come down. With her there, it was definitely safe here.
Sure enough, the atmosphere at the dinner table had become harmonious.
Jiu Shiyi was still a little hesitant; he felt somewhat sorry for Mu Jin.
Ever since he learned that Mu Jin was related to the Ten Constellations of the Southern Sky, Jiu Shiyi has wholeheartedly accepted Mu Jin as his brother-in-law, and he is absolutely on Mu Jin's side.
"I went to see Big White this morning, and guess what I found?"
Ye Mingshi suddenly said mysteriously.
He had wanted to talk about this for a long time, but he kept getting distracted and it was delayed until now.
The cat looked at Ye Ming and asked, "What did you find?"
Ye Mingshi said excitedly, "Dabai brought back a girlfriend! I was stunned!"
Upon hearing this, most of the others became somewhat interested.
Jiu Shiyi immediately asked, "How do you know it's a female shark?"
Ye Mingshi rolled her eyes. "Jiu Shiyi, is there any skill involved in asking your question? If Da Bai isn't bringing back its girlfriend, is it going to bring back a boyfriend?"
After a pause, he said from a professional perspective, "Female sharks are larger than male sharks. Perhaps you've made a mistake."
Ye Mingshi: "I hadn't noticed that..."
A little while later, after finishing her breakfast, the cat said, "Xiao Yi, let's go."
