Lin Jingshuo sneered. Although the sound was not obvious, from his disdainful expression and the coldness that emanated from his body, it was easy for others to tell that he was deliberately targeting someone.
Tang Ruize's fists were clenched so tightly that they made a clattering sound. It seemed that he had not expected that this person would turn against him just for a few words. If his father saw this, he would definitely ask him if he had made Lin Jingshuo unhappy.
His father was already bewitched by Lin Jingshuo. If Lin Jingshuo took advantage of the situation and distorted the truth, he would be finished.
What's more, he has something very important to tell his father.
Tang Ruize took a deep breath, as if forcing himself to prepare himself mentally. But just as he was about to lower his head, Nie Xingchi, who had been following behind him, pulled Tang Ruize back, gave him a look of "reassurance," and then sat down next to Lin Jingshuo, and said, "I'm so proud of you."
"mom!"
“Pah—”
"Sizzle—"
The doctor's cell phone fell to the ground.
The painting album in Lin Jingshuo's hand was torn into two halves.
Then they all looked at Nie Xingchi, who was smiling brightly, and the doubts that flashed in their eyes almost seemed to be wondering if there was something wrong with their ears.
What did this spoiled and arrogant young master call him?
"Mom, why are you ignoring me? Oh, you won't blame me for being too abrupt, right? But Rui Ze calls Uncle Tang Dad, and you are Uncle Tang's girlfriend, so it's only right for me to call you that! If Uncle Tang were here, I would call him Dad too..."
"What did you say? Tang Ruize, you said you had something very important to tell me. Could it be... related to the Xingchi?"
A voice came from the stairs. As Tang Yu walked down slowly with steady steps, the voice became clearer and clearer.
Tang Yu, who had changed out of his suit, was now wearing a gray casual outfit. The comfortable, loose fabric made him look less fierce and more gentle. He still spoke sharply, but perhaps that was only directed at Tang Ruize, because when his eyes swept over Lin Jingshuo, his expression softened considerably, and he even gave him a soothing smile.
When Tang Yu appeared, the housekeeper came over to ask when dinner would be served.
Tang Yu sat on the main seat on the sofa, legs crossed, hands folded on his legs, and signaled the housekeeper not to rush: "Let's talk first and then eat. Wait a little longer."
"Yes." The butler lowered his head and retreated.
But before leaving, he casually glanced at the doctor who was eating melon seriously.
I'm envious, really envious. Not only can I be a first-line spectator, but there is no risk involved.
As the butler left, Tang Yu raised his chin slightly and asked Tang Ruize directly, "Go ahead."
Tang Ruize hesitated for only a second, then knelt on the ground with a thud and said to Tang Yu honestly, "Xing Chi and I are together."
Tang Yu: “…”
Very good, that’s pretty much what he guessed.
But what's there to kneel for? Doesn't he look like the kind of stubborn, rigid parent who doesn't understand young people?
"Get up. Why are you kneeling?" Tang Yu sighed, his tone very calm.
"Dad... aren't you angry?" Tang Ruize stood up from the ground while nervously observing Tang Yu's expression. After all, he had such an ugly quarrel with Nie Xingchi before. Most people would question whether he was joking.
But his father didn't. He just sighed slightly and explained calmly as if he had expected it:
"It's normal to fall in love with your mortal enemy. It's not surprising."
Nie Xingchi didn't intend to let Tang Ruize face such a serious matter alone, so he stood up and stood beside Tang Ruize, and raised the corners of his mouth sweetly towards Tang Yu -
"Rize and I are serious about this, so from now on... can I call you Dad too, Rize?"
Tang Yu: "...Okay."
Anyway, it has come to this, what else can he say?
Maybe with Xing Chi around, the family relationship would be more harmonious. After all, Jing Shuo was coaxed into being quite happy just now.
"Okay, I understand. As long as you two are serious about each other, I won't interfere in your affairs." Tang Yu bent down, picked up the doctor's phone, and placed it on the coffee table. After thinking for a moment, he said to Nie Xingchi:
"Don't worry about your dad. I'll talk to him in person next time and he'll agree."
"Okay! Dad!" Nie Xingchi agreed happily and couldn't help but glance at Tang Ruize proudly.
In fact, he really didn't mean it. It was just his subconscious behavior because he had imagined this scene countless times.
Seeing Tang Yu and Lin Jingshuo walking to the restaurant, Tang Ruize, with a green face, asked Nie Xingchi in a low voice from behind: "You are not with me because of my dad, are you?"
"Oh, that's just something I said. Don't worry, I like you!" Nie Xingchi raised an eyebrow. Seeing the expression on the young master's face turn from gloomy to bright, he urged, "Let's go and eat."
"That's more like it. Let's go. My dad will definitely have someone prepare delicious food for me." Tang Ruize, who was easy to please, nodded proudly, and then he couldn't hide his pride and started to show off.
Nie Xingchi: “…”
The only downside to having a boyfriend who used to be your sworn enemy is that—
Sometimes we really can't help but ridicule each other.
Oh, forget it, let’s just make do with it.
Nie Xingchi sighed heavily, but felt that he could tolerate this little bit of dissatisfaction. After all, his original goal was achieved after a series of twists and turns. Even if he changed the method, the result was always similar.
He wondered why he was so persistent in wanting to get close to Uncle Tang?
Maybe it’s because I miss the warmth from Uncle Tang, the kind of warmth that only belongs to family.

"So happy?"
Tang Yu and Lin Jingshuo, who arrived at the restaurant first, sat down on the chairs. After serving five bowls of soup, Tang Yu turned his head and inadvertently caught a glimpse of Lin Jingshuo's upturned mouth, so he asked softly with a smile.
"Yeah, I'm happy. I suddenly found that the young master is quite sweet-mouthed." Lin Jingshuo had gotten used to revealing his true thoughts in front of Tang Yu at some point. In the past, no matter how happy he was, he would probably hide his joy and instead give a suitable answer that would not go wrong.
The doctor who was drinking the soup silently looked up at Lin Jingshuo in surprise.
But soon, he lowered his head again.
Pair after pair, tsk, he is so redundant.
What should I do? I want to leave the table with my bowl in hand.
