“What are you doing?” Youyou helplessly stopped his footsteps .
Why was he so sticky, practically like his little tail?
Yichen hastened to overtake his brother and then turned to block his path by standing in front . He lowered his head and solemnly asked, “Brother, what do you think about this?”
“Huh?”
The younger boy took a glimpse at him; he could not make headway of his abrupt words .
Pursing his lips, the older boy solemnly asked, “Daddy, mommy, you, and I living together in one home; what do you think of that?”
A family of four staying together and living together .
Youyou was startled, not having expected him to ask such a question at all . He kept quiet for a moment .
Advertis.e.m.e.nt “Is-Isn"t it good?” Feeling tense, the older twin spoke in an incoherent manner . “I-I like this very much; I like mommy and I like you, too . I want to live together with you guys as a family . Only this way will a house feel like a home, no?”
A very cozy feeling .
Staying together with daddy, mommy, and his younger brother would let him feel a bit of a family"s warmth .
In the Mu family, he only felt bone-chilling emptiness and indifference . He could not feel the warmth that a home should have or the warmth from a heart-to-heart intimacy .
Be it Mu Wanrou or Mu Sheng, he felt especially unfamiliar and estranged to them . He did not even wish to be close to them .
Hence, from the start, he was a bit of a social recluse . He disliked talking to people, disliked the company of others, and hid himself in his study to immerse in his own world oftentimes .
Despite being used to such a cold and empty environment, his heart still desired the warmth of a family .
He badly wished for a family .
He looked at his brother solemnly and saw the struggle and dilemma in the latter"s eyes .
“Are you afraid that mommy"s love will be s.n.a.t.c.hed from you?” he asked tentatively .
Seeing how the other pursed his lips and kept quiet, he quickly raised his palm and earnestly promised, “I swear not to fight with you for mommy . In fact, you"ll stand to gain daddy"s and my love! The three of us will dote on you . ”
At that, Youyou stared at him in astonishment .
He promised again, “It"s true! Because you"re my younger brother and I"m your older brother, I"ll protect you and not let you be harmed . Whoever dares to bully you, I"ll harshly bully them back for you!”
His younger twin was stunned for a moment and then unexpectedly released a chuckle .
He felt slightly embarra.s.sed . “What are you laughing about?”
“Your words seem like a confession . ” Youyou"s brows could not help but twitch .
In the past, when a male colleague of his mommy was wooing her, he had said these same words .
“Can you be more serious? At least, I am . ” Yichen frowned but could not bear to rebuke him .
Raising a brow, he answered, “All right . I"ll consider it for a bit . ”
With that, he held the railings and went downstairs .
His older brother followed closely behind . “Only consider for a bit?”
“I"ll seriously consider it . ”
“Why do you still need to consider it?”
“Because…” His eyes drooped as he lightly bit on his rosy lower lip . “Out of nowhere, I got a daddy and an older brother; I"m not used to it . ”
“Why…” Yichen, who was just behind him, wore a defeated and helpless look on his face .
Clearly, he had given his all to earn his brother"s trust .
