Before long, Chu Xin'er returned to the courtyard with light, quick steps, a lingering blush on her cheeks.
The winter wind ruffled her slightly disheveled hair, but it couldn't dispel the sweetness that couldn't be hidden in her eyes and brows.
Seeing her sister-in-law's expression, Ye Nian'an couldn't help but smile and ask, "Xin'er, where's Song Yan?"
"He...he went back."
Chu Xin'er subconsciously touched her burning earlobe, her voice as sweet as honey, so soft it seemed like it could be squeezed to release water.
The unexpected hug at the courtyard gate just now still felt warm, and the man's cool scent lingered.
This is the first time I've seen Song Yan like this...
So obsessive, bold, and possessive.
But this allowed Chu Xin'er to see another side of Song Yan.
My heart is pounding like a deer.
"Then Aunt..."
San San tilted her little head, dragging out her words in a childish voice, her chubby little hands tugging at Chu Xin'er's clothes.
"Did you and Song Yansu just secretly kiss?"
"Cough cough cough!"
Chu Xin'er almost choked to death on a mouthful of water, her cheeks instantly burning up.
Good heavens! Did those clever little devils see that fleeting touch just now?
Chu Xin'er felt her ears burning and wished she could disappear into the ground.
I'm so embarrassed! I'm so embarrassed! I'm so embarrassed!
"San San, what nonsense are you talking about!"
She forced herself to remain calm, putting on a stern face and adopting the authority of an elder: "My friendship with your Uncle Song Yan is purely revolutionary!"
But his voice was like it had been soaked in honey, soft and weak, and had no persuasive power whatsoever.
Ye Nian'an leaned back in the wicker chair, her fingertips twirling the end of her braid, her eyes curving into crescents, and said in a tone that was half teasing, "Oh? Really?"
Looking at Chu Xin'er like this, she really has no persuasive power at all.
"It's true, sister-in-law."
Chu Xin'er winked at Ye Nian'an.
I have no dignity in front of my family, but I'll stick to my dignity in front of my kids!
"But Auntie, your face is so red!"
"Yes, yes, I once secretly saw Daddy kissing Mommy, and his face turned just as red afterward."
"Oh my, they kissed! They really kissed!"
?(? ???ω??? ?)?
The three boys took turns speaking, getting more and more excited as they talked.
Ye Nian'an never expected to be caught in the crossfire, and the tips of her ears instantly turned the color of the sunset.
Well, now I've gotten myself into trouble instead of teasing my sister-in-law.
Chu Xin'er chuckled, feeling much better afterward.
This is where Brother Zha came in handy.
It's not like I'm being teased like this by my own sister-in-law.
But he himself was powerless, like a fish on a chopping board, completely at the mercy of others.
That side.
Ye Sheng was guarding the room of the seven cubs.
Seven babies lay side by side on a large bed covered with blue-printed fabric, waving their little hands and occasionally letting out "da da da" laughter.
Because they were worried that the babies might accidentally roll over and fall off the bed, they took precautions at the bedside.
Ye Sheng seemed to be taking care of the babies, but his eyes revealed a dazed look.
Was she doing this on purpose to strike up a conversation with me?
The image of the girl riding the Forever brand bicycle reappeared in his mind.
Shen Shuling's two jet-black braids gleamed in the sunlight, and her cheeks, slightly puffed out from anger, resembled ripe peaches, making her charming and radiant with youthful energy.
The faded blue cotton shirt she wore made her neck appear exceptionally fair...
Although she was a woman who argued unreasonably.
But one thing must be admitted...
This woman is quite to my liking.
"No, no!"
Realizing he had gone off on a tangent, Ye Sheng quickly patted his cheeks, trying to clear his head.
"That violent woman, who would like her? How could I, Ye Sheng, be such a shallow man! Judging by appearances alone!"
"Her personality...it's impossible, absolutely impossible! Even if she was deliberately flirting with me, I could never fall for her! Absolutely not!"
What are you muttering to yourself here for?
Suddenly a voice came, almost scaring Ye Sheng to death.
He turned around abruptly and saw Chu Xin'er leaning against the door frame, the sunlight casting a golden edge on her moon-white polyester shirt.
Ye Sheng patted his pounding chest: "Why do you walk so silently? It's like a ghost."
Chu Xin'er couldn't help but roll her eyes: "Brother Ye Sheng, you really can't say anything nice!"
"You were just lost in thought, I don't know what you were thinking. I didn't do anything to you, why are you saying that to me? Believe me or not, I'll tell your sister-in-law!"
"oh……"
Chu Xin'er seemed to have thought of something, smiled, revealing two small dimples on her cheeks: "Someone must have been so lost in thought about you, Miss~ They didn't even notice me standing at the door for so long~"
Ye Sheng raised his hands in surrender: "Okay, okay, I'm sorry, Sister Xin'er, it was my mistake. Please be magnanimous and don't make things difficult for me."
"Why did you suddenly come in to see me? What brings you here?"
"I do need to talk to you about something..."
Chu Xin'er stopped playing riddles: "I feel like I know that Shen Shuling you mentioned. When are you going to meet her? I'll go with you."
"Forget it. If Song Yan finds out and misunderstands that we're having an affair, he might kill me."
Thinking of Song Yan's cold, jealous gaze just now, cough cough cough.
Ye Sheng wasn't that stupid. He clearly had no romantic feelings for Chu Xin'er, yet he still created such a powerful enemy for himself.
Isn't this just asking for trouble?
"Come on, do you really think Brother Song Yan is that petty?"
Chu Xin'er felt a little guilty when she said this.
“Your brother Song Yan is usually not that petty, but when it comes to you… if his gaze could kill me, I would probably be dead thousands of times over.”
"You saw that guy's eyes, they were like knives stabbing into me."
Ye Sheng made a throat-slitting gesture.
"Well, anyway, I already talked to Song Yan. Even though we're dating, he can't restrict my personal freedom."
"Even if Brother Song Yan suspects someone else, he can't suspect the two of us. We're just a pair of lovebirds bickering!"
"Anyway, take me to meet Shen Shuling. Don't worry, I will absolutely not interfere in your relationship. I just want to know who she is and whether I know her!"
Ye Sheng: "..."
Do you think I'd believe that?
They're just trying to make fun of me!
The middle finger is used to serve.
Chu Xin'er seemed to have anticipated Ye Sheng's reaction, and said with a half-smile, "Brother Ye Sheng, it's okay if you don't take me. I'll find them myself."
"If something goes wrong, I can't guarantee what will happen. You'll have to deal with it yourself."
