A topic came to an end, naturally another topic would fill the void. Tonight’s theme was playing mahjong, so naturally, there was no reason for a group of people to just stand around.
Han Xiayang was the first to react and called everyone to quickly take their seats: "Hurry up, hurry up. If you keep dawdling, it’ll be daylight soon."
Tonight, Young Master Lin was inseparable from his wife, finally having her by his side. As for the naked smiles on others’ faces, he paid no attention to them.
"Nannan, are you interested in joining them for a few rounds?" Lin Mubai said with a flattering smile.
An Nan shook her head nonchalantly, "No, I don’t want to play tonight. You go ahead if you want, don’t worry about me, I’ll keep Jiayou company." Orıginal content can be found at novel·fiɾe·net
After being turned down, Lin Mubai didn’t show the slightest sign of anger. Then he shifted his gaze from the woman in front of him to Little Jia You next to him, "Tired? Do you want me to take you home to sleep first?"
"No need, Uncle Mu Bai. You play, I can sit here and surf the internet. Later, we can go home together."
Lin Mubai was particularly fond of what the little guy said: "Later, we can go home together." That feeling, like one move connects to family, and he secretly hoped for this day to arrive sooner.
Instantly, the corners of his mouth widened into a brilliant smile, "Alright, if you get tired, let me know. We can go home anytime, and I’ll have someone bring some fruits and snacks."
"Thank you, Uncle Mu Bai."
Everyone could tell that because Lin Mubai loved An Nan, he also loved her son as he showered the little guy with affection. Some could even imagine that if An Nan had their child in the future, Young Master Lin would spoil their child to the skies. But that had nothing to do with them.
Two tables for mahjong were quickly set up.
Lin Mubai, Xi Shaoqi, Yu Wenhao, Zuo Qingfeng at one table.
The other table featured Han Xiayang, Zhao Tianchen, Lan Luo, and Lan Xinxixi.
After sitting down, Lan Xinxixi still asked An Nan uncertainly beside her, "Are you really not playing?"
An Nan shook her head with a smile and jokingly said, "I’m afraid if I play, you’ll lose terribly tonight, so you guys go ahead."
She wasn’t just bragging about mahjong; few had played against her, it could indeed be considered a talent.
However, her words came across as boasting to the crowd, but it wasn’t the annoying kind. Only Young Master Lin looked proudly at everyone, making them feel chilly. If it were ancient times, this Young Master would surely be a clueless emperor, and An Nan would be the infamous beauty, though this beauty was slightly lacking.
Later, it seemed maybe Young Master Lin was too excited tonight; usually winning with ease, once he got on the table, he kept losing.
"Young Master Lin, what’s wrong with you tonight? Could it be you’re too excited and forgot how to play?" Xi Shaoqi teased openly, the meaning clear. Previously, he felt a bit intimidated by this sly guy, but now he understood. Why worry? As long as An Nan was around, she wouldn’t let him meet a terrible fate considering their years of friendship.
Realizing this, Xi Shaoqi felt more and more at ease.
Equally at ease was Young Master Lin, who kept losing, looking at the other guy and raising an eyebrow with nonchalance, "What, I feel like being a Money Scatterer tonight, and you’re not happy about it?"
