Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Why didn’t your Master Qi come over?”
When Yang Sheng and Dongfang Liuyun sent Mu Zirui and Qi Wei’er to Maple Residence, Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye were at home too.
“What happened?” Mu Yuchen asked as he poured a gla.s.s of water for Yang Sheng while Dongfang Liuyun followed Xi Xiaye to bring the children upstairs to pack up.
“Master Qi went overseas. He had some urgent matters to deal with, so he left in a hurry. He asked Missus and I to send Master Xiao Rui and Miss Wei’er back.”
“Yes,” Yang Sheng replied.
“Overseas?”
Mu Yuchen’s silent eyes narrowed slightly. He thought about it for a moment before asking, “Myanmar?”
Mu Yuchen had naturally heard some news about that place from Zhou Zimo these past few days. Qi Lei had asked Zhou Zimo to provide some information before, so something that could make him so anxious must be quite urgent.
Yang Sheng just smiled and did not answer—
Qi Lei had previously told him not to leak the news. However, he did not know how to answer Mu Yuchen’s question.
However, the wise Mu Yuchen could naturally see the answer in Yang Sheng’s eyes, so he did not continue asking.
“Is he going alone?”
“Yes, he only brought a few bodyguards with him. They’ve already arranged for people over there, so don’t worry. Master Qi also flew over this morning,” Yang Sheng said simply.
Mu Yuchen lowered his head and looked at the cup in his hand carelessly. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly felt someone tugging at his pants. He subconsciously looked over and realized his son, Mu Xiaocheng, had unknowingly arrived by his side. He was hugging his leg and looking at him with his twinkling eyes. Then, he looked at Yang Sheng who was beside Mu Yuchen.
“Daddy…”
“Mmm? Why did you come here by yourself? Where’s Mommy?”
Mu Yuchen quickly put down the cup in his hand and bent down to carry him up.
“Little Master Zicheng is really getting cuter. What a beautiful little angel. Master Mu, Little Master looks especially like you!”
Yang Sheng could not help but feel happy when he saw the cute Mu Xiaocheng. He stared at him silently as well.
“Thank you, Uncle…”
Mu Xiaocheng obviously understood Yang Sheng’s compliment. Before Mu Yuchen could say anything, the little guy had already turned around and flashed a very friendly smile at Yang Sheng. He even thanked him.
“Haha, You don’t have to thank me, Little Master. Remember your Uncle Yang!”
Yang Sheng laughed out loud. As he watched, he could not help but sigh. “If only our Master Qi had a child as cute as you, Master!”
As Yang Sheng said this, his eyes could not help but be filled with antic.i.p.ation.
Mu Yuchen smiled and did not answer. At this moment, Xi Xiaye and Dongfang Liuyun’s voices came from upstairs. The few of them turned around and saw the two women walking down the stairs.
“Brat, why are you here?! Mommy has been looking for you for a long time!”
When Xi Xiaye saw Mu Xiaocheng being held in Mu Yuchen’s lap, she could not help but have a headache.
Mu Xiaocheng seemed to be one of those more hyperactive ones, yet he did not really like to play with everyone. At home, he would often play alone, you might see him in a corner of the study room flipping through those sketchbooks that you did not know if you could understand, or you might see this little guy playing with a small teacup under the tea table in his father’s tea Room, or you might have seen him pluck the blooming flowers in the flower pot at the corner of the flower pot outside the corridor of the villa…
Sometimes, he would even despise XI Xiaye for being stupid, like now…
When Mu Xiaocheng heard his mother’s voice, he immediately pulled a long face. Looking at the stairs behind Xi Xiaye, he said crisply, “I climbed down the stairs… Mother is silly…”
“Well would you be Little Silly then?”
Xi Xiaye glared at him unhappily, but she vented her unhappiness on Mu Yuchen. “I’m learning from you! When I grow stronger in the future, I’m sure he’ll bully me.”
“He wouldn’t dare even if I gave him ten guts,” Mu Yuchen replied nonchalantly and placed Mu Xiaocheng on the sofa beside him. “Where’s Xiao Rui and Wei’er?”
“They’re doing their homework! Liuyun, sit here.”
“Okay, thank you.” Xi Xiaye greeted Dongfang Liuyun who had not spoken all this while.
“Okay, thank you.”
Dongfang Liuyun was naturally a little courteous.
“It’s been hard on you guys these past two days. Xiao Rui and Wei’er just said that they had a lot of fun yesterday.”
“Qi Lei played with them all day. When they came back, they fell asleep in the car.”
Dongfang Liuyun smiled. Her eyes were gentle, but her gaze fell on Mu Xiaocheng. Looking at Mu Xiaocheng’s cute appearance, she could not help but imagine if her and Qi Lei’s children would be as cute in the future, would they also be as smart.
“Why are you looking at me?”
Mu Xiaocheng quickly noticed Dongfang Liuyun staring at him. He opened his eyes and looked back at Dongfang Liuyun.
Dongfang Liuyun smiled when she heard that. She could not help but reach out to him. “Because you’re very cute and very pretty. I’m Dongfang Liuyun. Can you tell me your name?”
Mu Xiaocheng quickly put on a friendly smile. “My name is Mu Zicheng… you’re very pretty too…”
Mu Xiaocheng’s smile instantly made Dongfang Liuyun’s heart flutter. She could not help but hug him. She could not hide her excitement as she looked up at Xi Xiaye and Mu Yuchen, “He’s so cute. No wonder Qi Lei is always saying that he hopes to have a daughter who can bring your Xiao Cheng into our Qi family.”
When they heard this, Xi Xiaye and Mu Yuchen looked at each other and smiled.
“He’s very naughty. I’m afraid that he won’t be able to control himself in the future.”
Xi Xiaye felt a little helpless.
“Well for boys it’s better to be naughty. With you and your wife taking care of him, I think he’ll definitely become an outstanding person like Chairman Mu in the future.”
Dongfang Liuyun smiled.
“I hope that he can be more ordinary and happy. He doesn’t have to be so outstanding. People like us in this generation had to endure too much. It’s best to be happy and at ease. Just like Xiao Rui and Wei’er. I never wanted them to always have time to study some curriculum. The children nowadays always feel that their lives are much harder than ours in the past, even though their living conditions are much better than before.”
Xi Xiaye seemed to feel this very deeply when she talked about these things.
Every time she went to pick up the children, she would always find a lot of parents talking about how they had to get a tutor at night to teach the children how to play the piano or go to cla.s.s.
Xi Xiaye had always thought that the children did not need to bear too many skills yet. Right now, what they needed the most was a positive influence from their parents and family. The children’s psychological education and literacy education were what they needed to cultivate the earliest.
