"Dad!"
"Dad!"
Prince Huang hurriedly crawled out from behind Su Xiaong, and as Yin Shixiu approached, he jumped straight onto him!
"Oh my, good son!"
Of course, he’s a good son!
Yin Shixiu quickly caught Prince Huang securely, and as he said this, he couldn’t help but glance at Han Tan.
Over on the other side, Shuangshuang also stood up quickly, reaching out her sauce-covered hands to ask to be held by Yin Shixiu.
Yin Shixiu looked at those two little hands, struggled to overco his inner reluctance, and freed up his other hand to also hold Shuangshuang.
"Good girl, Shuang’er!"
Su Xiaong frowned upon seeing this act, wondering what he was doing, why he was being so over-the-top.
All the surrounding guests were now frequently looking their way.
Su Xiaong didn’t realize that at this mont, Yin Shixiu was completely acting like a lion whose territory had been invaded, using the brother-sister pair to claim his sovereignty!
"Why are you here?"
Su Xiaong asked, her tone not exactly rude, considering there were others around and the kids were here.
But the tone was definitely not friendly either.
Yin Shixiu smiled, put the kids down, and said calmly,
"Finished work, feeling quite hungry, so I ca over. Huang’er, go sit properly."
"Okay!"
Prince Huang perked up all over, and after sitting, he looked right at Han Tan with his big eyes.
Clearly, this was a table for four, and even though Shuangshuang and Huang Huang were kids, each still occupied a seat.
And judging from Prince Huang’s expression, he had no intention of making room for Dad, clearly showing Han Tan had taken his dad’s spot.
Holding onto Shuangshuang, Yin Shixiu didn’t put her down and said to Han Tan,
"Hello, I’m Yin Shixiu."
"Han Tan."
Han Tan responded.
And then silence .
Su Xiaong sensed the awkwardness of the situation and felt a bit uncomfortable.
"I didn’t know Mr. Han was having a al with my wife, otherwise, I wouldn’t have co."
"You can leave now."
Han Tan cos out with this statent.
Su Xiaong was stunned.
Thinking it over, Han Tan’s quirky personality really couldn’t be approached with a typical mindset.
Yin Shixiu squinted, Han Tan’s words were just like him throwing down a gauntlet.
"She is my wife, these two children are mine too, don’t you think it’s inappropriate for you, an outsider, to insert yourself into our family?"
Su Xiaong frowned, looking at Yin Shixiu.
Was there any logic to this? It didn’t feel like sothing Yin Shixiu would say at all.
Not to ntion soone she had a classmate relationship with, but even to ordinary strangers, Yin Shixiu never spoke this rudely.
She was about to open her mouth to remind him to choose his words given the situation.
Instead, she heard Han Tan reply calmly and earnestly,
"But I reserved this table."
"..."
Uh...
Su Xiaong froze for a mont, only to see a trace of bewildernt pass through Yin Shixiu’s eyes, apparently not having expected Han Tan to respond that way.
This was his reserved table, yet you’re telling him to leave, which...really seems unreasonable.
It was the first ti Su Xiaong had seen Yin Shixiu at a loss for words against soone.
Ha...
It seems that a certain arrogant, self-righteous man does have monts where he eats crow!
Right now, Su Xiaong felt completely baffled by, distrustful of, and disinclined to deal with Yin Shixiu.
Watching when he couldn’t maintain the upper hand, she felt secretly pleased!
She had no intention of helping him.
And then...
Yin Shixiu sat down, holding onto Shuangshuang, beside Han Tan, quite naturally.
"Adding in, it’s not too crowded."
Su Xiaong watched the two tall n sitting together, with Shuangshuang squeezed in between.
Tossing in his presence, it wasn’t too crowded, surprised he’d co up with such a line.
Besides Yin Shixiu’s discontent, there was another person with a sour mood, naturally Prince Huang.
Han Tan was always soone who didn’t blend in, he never aspired to fit in either.
Such a person would attend the world’s most boisterous parties, always appearing as though isolated on an island.
For instance, at this mont, previously close to him, Shuangshuang hardly "used" him after having dad around.
Yin Shixiu was either serving Su Xiaong food or talking about random nonsense.
Mostly those not-so-funny jokes.
Su Xiaong had never seen Yin Shixiu talk this much at a dinner table in her life.
Prince Huang didn’t care whether he understood or not, just echoing along, the father-son duo like performing a double act.
Yet Han Tan remained calmly enjoying his al, without a hint of unease.
If it were soone else, they would probably feel very uncomfortable.
Han Tan remained calm and composed, but that didn’t an he hadn’t noticed what Yin Shixiu’s behavior signified at that mont.
Jealousy, defending territory.
Extrely childish...
Han Tan was indifferent, but Su Xiaong finally couldn’t take it anymore...
"Can we just eat without talking?"
"Sure."
Yin Shixiu had no objections at all and responded very obediently.
Then he closed his mouth.
From ti to ti, he fed Shuangshuang sothing or peeled crab at and kept placing it in Su Xiaong’s bowl.
His face maintained a gentle smile.
Su Xiaong had always been quite oblivious, but at this mont, she finally realized what Yin Shixiu was doing that made his actions so uncomfortable!
This bastard, did he really think she had sothing going on with Han Tan and ca here specifically to show off?
With this suspicion, looking at Yin Shixiu’s actions again, it seed more and more likely!
It seed more and more likely...
Su Xiaong got even angrier!
This bastard, at this point, instead of reflecting on himself, ca over to doubt her!
Alright.
He’s allowed to act recklessly, but she’s not allowed to light a lamp, huh?
Su Xiaong humd in her heart, today, she’s going to light all the lamps in the city!
"Han Tan, are you free tomorrow?"
"Why?"
"My husband has to work overti tomorrow; he’s been so busy lately that I promised to take Shuangshuang and Huang Huang to Ocean Park. If you’re free, would you like to join us?"
"I’m not working overti; I’m done with work."
Yin Shixiu quickly interjected.
Han Tan glanced at Su Xiaong, then at Yin Shixiu...
Su Xiaong chuckled lightly,
"Then forget it. He won’t work overti, so when he does, we’ll go to Ocean Park together."
The remark was obviously directed at Han Tan.
It seems like the couple is indeed having a spat...
Han Tan didn’t respond; the al was no longer as enjoyable as it was before.
"I won’t work overti anymore,"
Yin Shixiu said with a smile.
Su Xiaong didn’t reply; she peeled so crab at and placed it in Han Tan’s bowl,
"Eat more."
Yin Shixiu used a fork to take the crab at from Han Tan’s plate and put it in his own mouth.
Su Xiaong was shocked again; seriously, he calls this a germaphobe!
He took what was in soone else’s plate and tossed it straight into his own mouth!
"You don’t mind if I eat your piece of at, right?"
"I mind."
Han Tan put down his knife and fork, gesturing for the waiter.
The man was quite a character with temperant; what did this couple take him for?
He handed out his card,
"The bill, please."
Before the waiter could take the card, Yin Shixiu stopped him and then drew out his own card from his pocket, smiling,
"I’ll take care of it."
The waiter hesitated for a mont, but ultimately took Yin Shixiu’s card for the bill.
The card was returned to Han Tan,
"You reserved the table, but my wife and kids, I’d rather feed them myself."
"Alright."
After saying this, Han Tan got up, "Enjoy your al; I’ll be leaving now."
Yin Shixiu moved slightly to let Han Tan walk out.
Then Han Tan left; Su Xiaong quickly got up to chase after him, but Han Tan had already walked a few steps away.
Xiao ng caught up to him, with an apologetic look on her face,
"I’m sorry..."
She knew; she could try to hide their marital discord but couldn’t succeed completely.
Not only did she fail to hide it, she also involved Han Tan...
"It’s alright, aren’t we friends?"
Su Xiaong was taken aback for a mont, then suddenly smiled, "Yes!"
Returning to her seat, Yin Shixiu still maintained a casual deanor but with so sarcasm, he said,
"You’re divorcing for him?"
Su Xiaong squinted her eyes, picked up the red wine on the table, and splashed it on his face,
"Yin Shixiu, I’m not you!"
