Rong Qiao spoke, her words carrying a slightly sour tone, and then she glanced at Su Xiaong, her gaze landing on her shoes, causing her to smirk slightly...
"Brother Shixiu, you’re really sothing else; I’ve never seen you being so stingy with your girlfriends before..."
"I rember your previous girlfriends; you were always quite generous. How co with your wife, she’s dressed like this..."
Su Xiaong furrowed her brows.
Yin Shixiu glanced at Rong Qiao, speaking in a leisurely manner, "Girlfriends and wives cannot be compared."
Rong Qiao chuckled, "Brother Shixiu, from what you’re saying, it seems like being your wife is not as good as being your girlfriend..."
"Xiao Qiao."
At this mont, Ren Yixuan spoke up, signaling Rong Qiao to keep quiet.
Rong Qiao raised her brows, feeling displeased, "I was just making an offhand remark, Miss Su, don’t take it to heart. After all, with such an outstanding man like my Brother Shixiu, he must have had seven or eight girlfriends before marriage..."
Su Xiaong’s eyebrows raised even higher, casting a glance at Yin Shixiu.
The elevator reached the 52nd floor.
Yin Shixiu held Su Xiaong as they walked out of the elevator, then turned to Rong Qiao, "I’m generous with other won because they can be bought with money, but a wife cannot. To put it arrogantly, out of everything she’s wearing, am I not the most valuable?"
Rong Qiao was montarily stunned, unable to retort.
Ren Yixuan looked at the two outside the elevator with a calm expression and nodded slightly, "President Yin, Xiao ng, let’s have dinner together next ti."
"Oh, bye-bye."
Su Xiaong raised her hand, giving a sowhat dry wave.
The elevator doors closed, and Rong Qiao, still feeling frustrated by Yin Shixiu’s remark, saw Ren Yixuan acting nonchalantly and huffed, "Seeing your old fla, you couldn’t handle it when I teased him, could you?"
"Don’t be childish."
Ren Yixuan said lightly.
Who would have thought these three simple words would infuriate Rong Qiao, "Childish? You think I’m childish? And that woman just now isn’t childish?"
"Rong Qiao, drop it."
Rong Qiao huffed, "Turns out both you and Brother Shixiu have such taste."
She said it, but deep down, Rong Qiao knew there must be sothing particularly alluring about Su Xiaong.
Otherwise, it’s impossible for both Yin Shixiu and Ren Yixuan to be taken by her at the sa ti...
What frustrated her was that she couldn’t see what it was about Su Xiaong that was so captivating.
"Did you ever like Yin Shixiu?"
Just as Rong Qiao was getting a bit jealous, Ren Yixuan suddenly asked this.
Rong Qiao was montarily speechless.
Ren Yixuan smirked, "It’s too obvious."
Rong Qiao raised her brows, then leaned against him, "Are you jealous?"
Ren Yixuan turned to look at her, chuckling softly, "Shouldn’t I be jealous? Why are you getting involved with soone else’s wife?"
Rong Qiao bit her lip, giggling.
Ren Yixuan held her hand, exhaling lightly, "Moreover, with Yin Shixiu around, if this little girl wanted to bully soone, she should think twice, right?"
The elevator stopped at B2, and Ren Yixuan and Rong Qiao walked out. Rong Qiao shook Ren Yixuan’s hand, curiously asking, "Do you... still like Su Xiaong?"
"Like her? What’s there to like about her..."
"Weren’t you childhood sweethearts?"
"Won like her are everywhere; only after separating does one see that clearly."
Ren Yixuan said coldly, making Rong Qiao’s heart flutter with joy. She nestled next to Ren Yixuan, saying, "Yixuan, I’ve only t Yin Shixiu a few tis; he’s closer to my brother. But I can’t deny that he’s very charming, so even though I haven’t seen him much..."
Rong Qiao paused to think, then said, "I really did have a crush on him, even got my brother to set us up... Haha, thinking back now, it’s really embarrassing!"
She said, then touched her nose.
Ren Yixuan opened the car door for her and ruffled her hair, "Little girl."
"You’re not much older than , stop calling little girl."
Rong Qiao quickly grumbled.
Ren Yixuan closed the car door, got in from the other side, started the car, and asked, "And then? Did he reject you?"
"At that ti, he was already with Su Xiaong, right... Plus, my brother talked about a business marriage, but my brother’s really dumb, soone like Yin Shixiu wouldn’t need a business marriage..."
"... Is that so?"
Ren Yixuan smirked slightly, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.
"Anyway, no matter what, I only have you in my heart now."
Rong Qiao looked at Ren Yixuan, her eyes filled with admiration.
Ren Yixuan turned, gently flicked her nose, chuckling, " too."
Rong Qiao was imrsed in the overflowing happiness of the mont.
anwhile, Ren Yixuan’s calm profile was reflected on the car’s window, his eyes filled with emotions, thoughts deeper than the night, making them even harder to decipher.
Yin Shixiu led Su Xiaong into the room, and as soon as the door closed, Su Xiaong was pinned against it with force.
More than a week of longing and thinking built up little by little within them, and then Su Xiaong, lying weakly against Yin Shixiu, mumbled softly, "Is that Rong Qiao Rong Jing’s sister?"
"Why ask about her all of a sudden?"
"Sounds like she knows a lot about your past..."
Su Xiaong raised her head, her chin poking against his chest.
"Yeah, Rong Jing’s sister."
"Didn’t expect Yixuan to be with her..."
Yin Shixiu twirled a strand of her hair with his finger, his eyes deep and dark...
"What? Feeling uncomfortable?"
Su Xiaong raised an eyebrow, climbed further onto him, and pinched his face, "Who he’s with is none of my business, but there was indeed sothing that made uncomfortable just now."
"...What?"
"Yin Shixiu, I often feel that you’re very different from other wealthy people. I think that’s the part that draws to you."
"Uh-huh?"
"But today, Rong Qiao said sothing that made think. Actually, when you were young, weren’t you just like those other rich guys? Especially when it cos to relationships."
"What do you an?"
"Rong Qiao ntioned how many girlfriends you had before being with . My gosh, eight or nine? And you were so generous with them... Tsk tsk, you were quite the playboy!"
Yin Shixiu looked at her and chuckled lightly, "Do you rember Rong Jing?"
"Uh... I rember him."
"What impression do you have of him?"
Su Xiaong wasn’t sure why Yin Shixiu asked, but after thinking for a mont...
"A mysterious person, seems rather sly!"
Su Xiaong said bluntly.
"There you go. Rong Qiao is Rong Jing’s sister, how good could she be?"
Su Xiaong blinked her eyes.
Yin Shixiu sighed lightly and turned his gaze away, looking a bit hurt.
Su Xiaong realized she had unknowingly been stirred by Rong Qiao and quickly looked apologetically at Yin Shixiu, "Honey... I was just joking."
"Oh."
"Uh... you’re not mad, right?"
"You’ve been suspicious of my character for quite so ti now, it’s fine."
Yin Shixiu said casually, which made Su Xiaong feel deeply guilty. She quickly lowered her head and kissed his lips.
He wrapped his arm around her waist, turned over, and pinned her beneath him, "Co, call ’Dad’ again, just like earlier..."
"No!"
Su Xiaong quickly covered her face with her hand and turned her head to the side.
Yin Shixiu caught her neck and playfully teased her, "Not calling?"
"Ah ah... Not calling, not calling!"
Su Xiaong’s small body kept trying to burrow into the quilt, while Yin Shixiu pressed down on her, holding her tightly in his embrace...
He nibbled her ear one mont, tickled her the next, causing the already weak Su Xiaong to twist and squirm frantically on the bed...
"It tickles..."
"Still not calling?"
"I’ll tattle on you! I’ll go tell my dad when we get back!"
Su Xiaong threatened in a serious tone.
Yin Shixiu raised an eyebrow, "So, dear wife, you even share our bed matters with your dad?"
"Yin Shixiu, you shaless!"
"Are you calling or not? If not, I promise I can be even more shaless!"
Yin Shixiu said as he reached his hand sowhere inappropriate, and Su Xiaong quickly grabbed his arm, "Don’t, stop ssing around... I’m so tired... really tired..."
"Don’t you see that I wore high heels to pick you up today!"
Su Xiaong said earnestly, hoping to earn so sympathy from Yin Shixiu.
However, Yin Shixiu nuzzled her ear, "Alright then, you sleep, I’ll do it myself."
"Yin Shixiu—"
Su Xiaong felt a bit helpless inside, but also found it... sweet.
Yin Shixiu kissed her nose, her cheek...
Of course, Rong Qiao was up to no good, but Yin Shixiu had to admit, compared to his twenties, he was much steadier and more settled now.
Not exactly a playboy, but he did enjoy having fun.
It’s true what they say.
eting the right person isn’t enough; it has to be at the right ti too.
If he could go back five or six years, Su Xiaong, such a simple girl, wouldn’t have been his type.
Likewise...
If Su Xiaong had t his twenty-sothing self, she probably... wouldn’t have been impressed either.
Christmas ended, and New Year’s followed imdiately.
Early in the morning, Su Chengji and Bai Sixian set off to the Bai Family.
Yin Shixiu and Su Xiaong were also getting ready to head back to the Yin Mansion.
As Su Xiaong dressed Shuangshuang and Huang Huang, she said to Yin Shixiu, "Every ti I have to see Mr. Yin and Mrs. Yin, I get so nervous."
She sighed heavily.
Yin Shixiu folded the stroller and put it aside, then ca over to help Su Xiaong dress the children.
Shuangshuang lay on the bed, looking up at the ceiling, her round eyes rolling as she watched her brother being dressed.
And Prince Huang?
Just woke up and was still sleepy, yawning, with teary eyes.
Hearing Shuangshuang waving her four limbs like a turtle unable to flip over, her eyes rolling towards the corner in a dramatic eye-roll.
Su Xiaong couldn’t help but laugh.
"Shixiu, were you like this when you were little? Such a little rascal?"
"You could ask your mother-in-law to confirm."
