Jin Yu’s words made everyone present laugh.
"Hey, Xiao Jin, that’s not right of you. Da Bao and Xiao Bao haven’t grown up yet, and you’re already eager for a third child. How do you expect our Niannian to cope with that?"
Sister-in-law Du teased, speaking up for Xu Niannian, who pushed Jin Yu away: "You never say anything proper."
Though she scolded him, Xu Niannian’s face was all smiles. It couldn’t be helped; she knew Jin Yu was giving her face, purposely joining her in teasing Ji Ruhua.
As for Ji Ruhua, her feelings for Jin Yu were almost written on her face.
No, they were already written on her face, and any observant person could surely see it.
"How am I not proper?" Jin Yu asked with a smile at the corner of his mouth, putting an arm around Xu Niannian’s shoulder: "The two little chunks are too naughty. Didn’t you say you wanted to give me a daughter?"
"Nonsense, Xiao Bao is not naughty."
Xu Niannian corrected him, her Xiao Bao was so well-behaved.
Suddenly praised, Xiao Bao’s head lifted, his long lashes fluttering open, his agate-like clear eyes brimming with laughter.
Across the table, Xu Niannian was smitten by her own kid’s cute smile and reached out to rub his little head.
On the other side, Da Bao was completely unaware he’d been complained about and was trying to climb onto the table. The source of thɪs content is novel[f]ire.net
Catching sight of this, Xu Niannian felt a headache coming on; this kid really was too naughty.
"Oh my, look at you two," Sister-in-law Du chuckled, tapping on the table: "Mind the influence, will you? We know you’re affectionate, go be affectionate in your room."
Sister-in-law Du didn’t mean anything by it, she was just playfully teasing Jin Yu and Xu Niannian.
Jin Yu didn’t mind and Xu Niannian also smiled and played along: "Sister-in-law is right."
Sister-in-law Du looked at Xu Niannian in surprise. Well, that was straightforward, she’d thought the young lady would surely be blushing and bowing her head.
"Alright, Sister-in-law, stop teasing the young ones," Sister Zhang said, patting Sister-in-law Du’s hand, signaling her to remember the main purpose of today.
Sister-in-law Du slapped her forehead, "Ah, I almost forgot."
"Xiao Ji..." Sister-in-law Du called out to Ji Ruhua, but upon seeing her face as pale as paper, all thoughts of teasing vanished.
Worried she might be unwell, Sister-in-law Du asked, "Oh, Xiao Ji, what’s wrong with you? Why is your face so pale? You’re not sick, are you?"
Sister-in-law Du reached out to touch Ji Ruhua’s forehead.
Ji Ruhua instinctively dodged.
Sister-in-law Du’s hand fell through the air.
Everyone present looked over.
Only Jin Yu kept his head down eating, while Xu Niannian also turned to look at Ji Ruhua.
Ji Ruhua’s complexion was terribly white.
"Sister-in-law, I’m feeling a little unwell, I want..." to go rest for a bit.
Stung by the display of affection from Jin Yu and Xu Niannian, Ji Ruhua had thought about fleeing but then suddenly recalled that Jin Yu hadn’t yet eaten the dish she made for him, his former favorite.
She held back the rest of her sentence, forcefully pivoting, "I want to drink some water first. Sister-in-law, do you have any hot water?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Seeing that her complexion had regained some color and wasn’t as pale as before, Sister-in-law Du hurriedly instructed Ye Shaoting: "Xiao Ye, go pour a glass of water."
Ye Shaoting felt a headache, but with so many people around, although he didn’t want to pursue any relationship with Ji Ruhua, he wouldn’t be so ungracious as to refuse to pour a glass of hot water.
But it seemed he had stumbled upon some incredible revelation.
The girl’s eyes were practically glued to Jin Yu. She couldn’t have taken a fancy to Jin Yu, could she?
Give it a rest, the man’s already got kids.
Ye Shaoting had a particularly poor impression of such people, women who wanted to break up families. What kind of good woman could she be?
