Gan Yuan shook his head and gave him another once-over, making sure he hadn’t suffered the slightest injury. Only then did his heart completely settle down.
"Upstairs with Will."
Worried about his son, Gan Yuan hurried toward the stairs.
Huangfu Jue chased after him.
Upstairs in the lounge.
Jessica bent down and placed Gan Tang on the couch, "Little treasure, watch from here. Once I knock this jerk down, I’ll take you to mommy."
Will stood by the door, gently moving his neck and loosening his joints, "You might not want to make a fool of yourself in front of the kid!"
With a sidelong glance at him, Jessica grabbed the fruit tray from the table and hurled it at Will, charging over like a shadow following the form, swinging a beautiful hook punch.
"Uncle Will, be careful!"
Gan Tang immediately cried out in alarm.
"Don’t worry." Will raised his arm to block Jessica’s offensive, "She can’t beat your uncle; she’s no match for me!"
"Hmph!" Jessica huffed and raised her knee to kick.
The man and woman fought in the lounge as Gan Tang sat on the couch, finding the thrilling fight entertaining.
"I’m a friend of your mommy!" Jessica glared at him in displeasure.
The little fellow smiled at her, "Pretty sister, behind you, behind you..."
Jessica twisted her body to dodge Will’s attack while Will glared at the little one, "Xiaotang, which country are you on?"
The little fellow laughed lightly, "I’m with the United Nations!"
A single phrase made both the man and the woman laugh, and in unison, they cursed at him.
"Alright, I won’t warn either of you. I’ll be the referee!" The little fellow lifted his small hand to check his watch, "Time limit fifteen minutes, no use of other weapons, or it’s a foul."
Both simultaneously agreed and charged at each other.
In the small lounge, two figures moved swiftly, their punches and kicks creating whooshing sounds in the air. For Xiaotang, this was the first time witnessing such a direct fight, and his wide eyes immediately sparkled with excitement.
"Go for it!... Uncle Will... Pretty sister... you have to make mommy proud... go for it..."
Standing on the couch, Xiaotang cheered for both, waving his little fists, wishing he could jump in and show some moves himself.
The fruit tray was smashed underfoot.
A chair leg was kicked off and flew towards the couch.
Both faces turned at the same time, eyes wide with concern as they saw the chair leg flying towards Gan Tang. The child was Gan Yuan and Huangfu Jue’s
As the chair leg flew towards the couch, they both spun around and leaped to grab the broken piece.
They both yelled urgently as they and Jessica flew up to catch the chair leg in mid-air, colliding with each other and tumbling to the floor, with neither sparing a thought for themselves as they looked towards the couch.
On the couch, the little guy was face down. Seeing the scene, they both rushed over frantically.
One grabbed his arm while the other supported his shoulder as they turned the little guy over.
"Why did you stop fighting?"
The little guy had just seen something flying over and, in a moment of panic, had dove onto the couch. They had thought he was hurt.
"You scared me to death!" Jessica breathed a sigh of relief.
