Su Xiaong blinked her eyes, looking at Yin Shixiu with a bit of confusion...
He seed to have a lot of hostility towards Uncle.
He didn’t call him Uncle, but Mr. Bai... If it was an age issue, the younger uncle who’s about the sa age as mom, he also calls him younger uncle...
In any case, with Yin Shixiu’s move, the situation beca a bit awkward.
How can a junior return the red envelope given by a senior right on the spot?
Bai Zhenghan looked up at Yin Shixiu, he didn’t imdiately get angry, but smiled, "This Fourth Young Master seems to dislike a lot, can I ask why?"
"Mr. Bai, I didn’t know that when I refuse soone’s red envelope, I have to co up with a reason?"
"Shixiu, how can you speak to your elders like that?"
Yin Shaohui didn’t know what was bothering Yin Shixiu and couldn’t help but scold him.
"Oh, I forgot for a mont, Mr. Bai is indeed an elder to Xiao ng."
Bai Zhenghan squinted his eyes, "Though I don’t know the reason, it seems the Fourth Young Master holds quite a prejudice against . In that case, I’m guessing we’re not welco at this birthday banquet..."
Saying that, he stood up.
Bai Fengmao glanced at Yin Shixiu, then glared at Bai Zhenghan, "You’re considering acting as childish as the kids?"
Scolded by his father, Bai Zhenghan quickly said, "Dad, that’s not what I an, I..."
"Enough."
Bai Zhenghan took a deep breath, giving Yin Shixiu a glance.
"Shixiu, how about you? Can you calm down?"
Yin Shixiu shrugged, "Since Grandpa has spoken, how could I not give him face?"
Yin Shaohui hurriedly raised his glass, leading everyone in a toast to ease the atmosphere his son had made tense.
Su Xiaong tugged at Yin Shixiu’s hand, whispering, "Uncle, what’s wrong with you?"
Yin Shixiu leaned to her ear and whispered, "I’m just testing your uncle, shh..."
Testing?
"Testing what?"
Yin Shixiu smiled, the curve of his lips disappearing without a trace.
Leaving Su Xiaong totally puzzled, Yin Shixiu seed rather satisfied as if he had achieved sothing.
After the unpleasant little episode, Yin Shixiu went back to his normal self, toasting when needed, respecting when due, as if that little episode was just a minor tantrum he threw.
And Bai Zhenghan seed to have co across as far more magnanimous than they had imagined.
Seeing that Yin Shixiu didn’t continue to find fault, he didn’t hold a grudge.
Of course, he didn’t embarrassingly offer a red envelope again.
Because... it wasn’t just him, Bai Zhengxiang’s red envelope was also returned by Yin Shixiu, with no leniency.
The seven-star hotel’s service was even better than Su Xiaong imagined.
The female waitstaff’s words were so gentle that it could almost drip water, causing Shuangshuang to frequently glance over, smiling so widely at the waitstaff.
Su Xiaong, rarely bothered to look after the two kids, left them entirely to Yin Shixiu, burying herself in food.
Just thinking the taste was amazing.
Yin Shixiu kept serving her dishes. For the past half a year, troubled by various matters, the little girl had lost a lot of weight, looking like just skin and bones.
The feeling of holding her without any flesh was really heartbreaking.
Su Xiaong loved shrimp and crab, focusing on a dish that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, frequently picking from it.
But there were only about ten or so on the table, so after silently swallowing three or four, she didn’t dare to take more.
Yin Shixiu noticed she liked it, so he called over the waitress to order another serving from the kitchen.
Su Xiaong heard it, blushing, and whispered to Yin Shixiu, "Did I... eat too much..."
"Hmm... it’s my fault, I should’ve taken you to try this earlier, hey..."
Yin Shixiu sighed softly, which brought Su Xiaong back to her senses from the previous warmth and caring, giving him a fierce glare.
He was making fun of her!
Yin Shixiu teased her, still serving her dishes he guessed she might particularly like.
Shuangshuang, who was originally playing with a nearby waitress, accidentally turned her head and saw her mother eating happily, then reached her hand to tug at Su Xiaong’s clothes.
Xiao ng still had sauce on her mouth, picked Shuangshuang up onto her lap, mashed a atball, dipped it in a tiny bit of sauce, and brought it to Shuangshuang’s mouth.
"Aaah" she took a bite!
Shuangshuang opened her mouth wide with a smile, chomped it all down!
Smacking her lips while saying, "Mom, thank you!"
Su Xiaong couldn’t stop laughing, "No need to thank , baby."
Shuangshuang’s sudden "thank you" surprised Zhou ngqin, who was sitting nearby.
She was delighted and hugged her granddaughter, "Shuang’er can say thank you now?"
"I don’t know who she learned it from, just suddenly ca out." Su Xiaong said, feeling a bit proud in her heart.
"Nainai! Eat, eat..."
Shuang’er still had sauce on her mouth, and in her excitent with grandma, sared the sauce on Zhou ngqin’s lips.
Su Xiaong whispered to Yin Shixiu, "Shuang’er is definitely a foodie."
"Mm-hmm."
Su Xiaong was a bit stunned, "How are you so sure?"
Yin Shixiu looked at Su Xiaong with her cheeks puffed full of food, took a wet wipe, and wiped the corner of her mouth, smiling aningfully.
Su Xiaong squinted her eyes and reached under the table to pinch Yin Shixiu’s thigh.
But before she had a chance to succeed, Yin Shixiu accurately caught her hand.
It was hard to pull away now.
Su Xiaong frowned, whispering a threat, "Let go."
But instead of letting go, Yin Shixiu held her hand, leading it to an increasingly mischievous place, his face still serious.
Su Xiaong was so frightened her back went stiff, her mother-in-law was sitting right next to her!
"Ah!"
Su Xiaong suddenly stood up.
With her sudden movent, everyone looked at her.
Yin Shixiu discreetly let go of her hand.
"I... I’m going to the bathroom for a bit, hehe."
After saying that, Su Xiaong left the room, and just before leaving, she vaguely heard soone say she was reckless...
Really want to strangle Yin Shixiu!
She shook her hand, still feeling a bit scared upon reflection!
Yin Shixiu chuckled lightly as a waiter brought a plate of United States crab, and he put on disposable gloves to start peeling the crab.
By the ti Su Xiaong ca back from the bathroom, the plate was already piled high with crab at.
Just looking at it, Su Xiaong’s mouth couldn’t help but water.
"Ma... Mama... Mama..."
Even more excited than Su Xiaong was Shuangshuang, with her chubby little hand pointing at the pile of crab at, neck stretched long... looking very impatient.
Su Xiaong had just gotten a piece of crab at to her mouth when she heard Shuangshuang’s urgent cry.
So the little one, moving from Nainai’s lap, ca over to Su Xiaong...
Just as Xiaong was about to put a piece of crab at in her mouth, the chubby hand kept reaching forward...
Turns out, Shuangshuang had her eyes on the few red crab claws piled in Yin Shixiu’s bone plate.
She reached out and grabbed them, then quickly tried to shove them in her mouth.
Frightened, Xiaong quickly dropped her chopsticks and took the crab shell out of her mouth.
"Shuangshuang, you can’t eat this."
"Ah ah! Ah ah ah!"
Seeing the claws taken away by Xiaong, Shuangshuang’s face imdiately fell, her big eyes turning red.
Su Xiaong frowned and got serious, "No crying."
"Wuwu... Wuwu..."
"No crying!"
"Wu..."
Shuangshuang pursed her lips, her big eyes full of resentnt as she looked at Su Xiaong, chin down, eyes looking up...
"You’re glaring at , are you still glaring!"
Shuangshuang glared more fiercely, and then with a "wah" she burst into tears, crying and shouting, "Dad... Wuwu... Nainai... Gou Gou!"
"Ah! Shuangshuang!"
Sitting at another table, Shan Minglang heard and rushed over, terribly distressed, and hurriedly said to Xiaong, "Little Aunt, I’ll hold her, let hold her?"
Shan Minglang originally had a fondness for the girl Shuangshuang, usually spoiling her to no end.
Seeing Shuangshuang scolded, wailing and crying out, calling for brother, Minglang imdiately rushed over.
Su Xiaong furrowed her brows lightly and said to Shan Minglang, "Go back to your seat."
Shan Minglang was about to speak, but Yin Shixiu gave him a look to go back.
Minglang, unable to hold Shuangshuang, found himself at a loss, with nowhere to help Shuangshuang, he turned to return to his seat with a dejected face.
But just as he turned his head, Shuangshuang started crying again!
"Gou Gou! Gou Gou ah—"
No matter how hard-hearted one might be, hearing the little girl call like this, the heart couldn’t help but ache!
"Little Aunt... Shuangshuang doesn’t understand, how could she know what can be eaten and what cannot..."
"Gou Gou, Gou Gou ah..."
Shuangshuang’s big eyes were red, long black thick eyelashes hanging with two big tears, which fell with a "pat" and "pat."
This little girl was quite bad, knowing Shan Minglang ca to protect her, so she eyed Shan Minglang tightly.
Sitting in Su Xiaong’s lap at this mont, she wasn’t being behaved at all, pulling at Su Xiaong’s hands, looking as if she doesn’t want mom’s hug, only Shan Minglang’s.
"Gou Gou ah, Gou Gou ah!"
Su Xiaong’s heart hardened, "Alright, you want brother, not mom, is that it?"
Shuangshuang settled herself, full of grievances, glanced at Su Xiaong, and slapped her face!
Yin Shixiu was also taken aback by Shuangshuang’s action.
He raised his brows.
After hitting Su Xiaong, Shuangshuang continued to reach her chubby little hand towards Shan Minglang.
"Oho, you don’t want mom, is that it?"
Shuangshuang didn’t even look at Su Xiaong, but nodded heavily, continuing to call "Gou Gou."
"Minglang, take her."
Su Xiaong said as she let Shan Minglang co over and handed Shuangshuang to him.
Shan Minglang was a bit flustered, montarily unsure whether to take her or not, hoping Little Aunt wasn’t really angry?
Before he could extend his hand, Shuangshuang’s little claws had already grabbed Minglang’s T-shirt, "Gou Gou ah!"
"Hey! Shuang’er."
Shan Minglang thought for a mont, and still took Shuangshuang in his arms, after all, she was just a child.
He gently coaxed her in his arms, the little girl probably had already forgotten about wanting to eat the crab shell, but she just rembered mom was bad, mom was an!
Now she only wanted brother, not mom!
So once in Shan Minglang’s arms, she tightly hugged his neck, pressing affectionately against his shoulder.
"Shuang’er, you really don’t want mom anymore?"
Yin Shixiu asked.
Shuangshuang nestled her head into Shan Minglang’s neck, which was an admission!
"You don’t want mom, then mom will leave. Do you want mom to leave?"
