Upon eting Qin Xin’s puzzled gaze, Nalan Ye Jue chuckled openly: "Doesn’t the young wife want to take Xiao Shuang ho?"
He leaned slightly closer to her ear, gently tucking a strand of short hair that had fallen around her ear, and lowered his voice: "Could it be the young wife doesn’t like others disturbing our bridal chamber?"
Qin Xin was utterly embarrassed: "...!
This man, how could he talk about bridal chambers in front of children?!
Seeing Qin Xin’s ears turning red, Nalan Ye Jue chuckled lightly.
He straightened up and said seriously to Qin Xiaoshuang: "I see you’re still carrying your backpack, it’s more convenient to do howork at your brother-in-law’s place, you should stay with tonight."
The scholarly and refined deanor now was hard to imagine coming from the sa man who spoke of bridal chambers just monts earlier.
Qin Xin was montarily stunned.
Seeing Qin Xiaoshuang looking at her expectantly, waiting for her nod, she finally opened her mouth: "Let’s go together."
Of course, she hoped Xiao Shuang would co with her.
Besides giving the child so comfort and warmth, she had a little personal intention—that having the child around ant she wouldn’t have to worry about soone ntioning bridal chambers again tonight.
After all, it’s inconvenient when there’s a child around.
Although she believes Mr. Nalan is a gentleman, n, well... she still feels a bit uneasy.
With both his sister and brother-in-law willing to take him ho, Qin Xiaoshuang was naturally the happiest.
Nalan Ye Jue also looked quite pleased.
But Qin Xin couldn’t quite shake the feeling that sothing was off, as if she had overlooked sothing.
The three of them took Nalan Ye Jue’s car back to the Xinghe Bay Villa.
Nalan Ye Jue personally cooked seafood pasta and vegetable soup.
The light yet delicious late-night al left both Qin Xin and Qin Xiaoshuang stuffed, with Qin Xiaoshuang constantly praising his brother-in-law’s cooking skills.
To the point where Qin Xin almost couldn’t recognize this brother of hers—Qin Xiaoshuang was always indifferent towards people, yet he was making an exception for Nalan Ye Jue??? So sweet-talker tonight!
After dinner, Qin Xiaoshuang anxiously pulled out a tattered paper bag from his backpack: "Sis, I don’t have much money, so I made a gift for you myself to celebrate your engagent with brother-in-law. Please don’t dislike it, okay?"
A warm current swept through Qin Xin’s heart as she tapped his head: "Fool! Why would your sister dislike you?"
Opening it, she found a dical robot built from LEGO blocks, adorable and comical.
Qin Xin laughed: "I’ll put it in the bedroom."
Nalan Ye Jue picked it up, glanced at it, and spoke calmly: "Such a thoughtful gift should obviously be placed in the most important spot in the house."
The bedroom wouldn’t be suitable.
Seeing it first thing when waking up would always remind her of her brother—how could that be?
He directly placed it on the most prominent shelf in the living room for display.
Surrounding it were antique writing tools worth tens of millions.
Both Qin Xin and Qin Xiaoshuang were satisfied.
Nalan Ye Jue chatted with Qin Xiaoshuang for a while about robots: "Since you love robots so much, next ti I’ll take you to visit a real robot laboratory, where you can participate in the design. But, your math and physics need to be strong."
Qin Xiaoshuang: "No problem, my science subjects are all perfect scores."
Nalan Ye Jue squinted: "Not bad. But what’s more important is hands-on practical ability."
Qin Xiaoshuang: "Brother-in-law, I’m willing to learn!"
Watching the two chatting so eagerly without her involvent, Qin Xin simply went to take a bath and changed into the pajamas Nalan Ye Jue had prepared for her long ago.
Ever since he gave her the house key last ti, she had discovered that her wardrobe at ho had been filled with more clothes and shoes for girls, all prepared according to her size.
There’s no denying that Mr. Nalan is indeed an exceptionally, exceptionally careful and considerate man.
