Teng relaxed his limps helplessly to let them do anything they wanted with him. He almost rolled up his eyes to pretend to be a dead fish. Lin Xiaolu and Wu Yueling were even looking at him with pity.
Wu Yueling was feeling a little uncomfortable as many people were at her home. However, Teng was still there, so she endured the discomfort and sat in a corner. She kept her eyes on Teng and paid close attention to the baby’s condition.
Lin Xiaolu was by her side. Since the norming, the two of them watched Lin Wenwen play with Teng as if he was a doll. They knew that the adults wouldn’t hurt Teng, but the helpless look on Teng’s face made the two little girls feel sorry for him.
Teng took a short nap after lunch. But since waking up, he was never out of his Aunty’s arms. Aunty’s arms are soft, but she was poking him and pinching him the whole time. She didn’t even stop for a single second.
Lin Qiao came downstairs and found the living room noisy. A few people were in the yard, sitting or standing.
“Why are you here so early? The party won’t start until dinner time.” Lin Qiao looked at Liu Jun and said.
Liu Jun was sitting on a chair with her son on her knees. She smiled at Lin Qiao and said, “I took a day off, so I came here early. I was going to help them in the kitchen, but it turns out that they don’t need help.”
Wu Chengyue and the two other men occupied the kitchen. They wouldn’t let anybody in, but told the people to come to help serve the dishes at dinner time.
At about five pm, almost all invited guests had arrived except for Lin Feng and Zou s.h.i.+hui, who both had a lot of work to do. Everyone sat around the tables. Qiu Lili, Lin Kui, Lu Tianyi, and the other zombies had no bowls and chopsticks before them, only a wine gla.s.s each.
They wouldn’t eat human food, so they normally drank some wine on such occasions. Of course, the others were expecting a rich dinner.
At this time, Teng was finally taken away from Lin Wenwen’s arms. Lu Tianyi held him for a while and then did Lin Hao. After that, Lin Wenwen took him back. Soon, he ended up in Long Qingying’s arms, and next, Xiao Yunlong took him away and put him in Meng Yue’s arms.
Wu Yueling followed behind him the entire time. No matter where the adults took Teng to, the girl would follow.
“Look at Ling Ling. She’s trying so hard to protect Teng. She’s such a good sister!” Cheng w.a.n.gxue stood by Lin Qiao’s side and couldn’t help but say.
“Has she healed for good?” She thought for a moment and added.
Lin Qiao shook her head and said, “Not exactly. She still gets nervous. It’s getting better now, as she has all her attention on Teng. I wonder when she will start to talk.”
Cheng w.a.n.gxue smiled and said, “She’s good now. I think she’ll start to talk when she grows older and learns more. She’s not afraid of people anymore. Her condition is already a lot better than before. She’ll be fine as long as she stays away from all kinds of negative stimulations.”
“I hope so,” Lin Qiao glanced at Wu Yueling and said.
Ling Ling said a word the last time, and both Wu Chengyue and Lin Qiao thought that the girl would start to talk like a healthy child. However, she never talked again.
“She’s persistent, though, about protecting her little brother. She’s a responsible kid,!” Liu Jun came over and joined the conversation.
Lin Qiao thought for a moment and said, “Perhaps it’s because Viney is her very first friend. That might be a sense of belonging, right? Kids’ feelings are actually very simple… Normal kids, I mean.”
Thinking about her own son, Lin Qiao felt exhausted. The kid had been very, very naughty ever since he was born. He could be quiet when he needed to be, but once he started making noises, a disaster would surely be there. Lin Qiao suffered a headache even thinking about that.
He could be so loud!
“Ahhhhhh! Ahhhhh!” The baby’s deafening screams could be heard from the yard at that very moment. The boy’s voice was so loud and resonant that it could be heard from a very long distance away.
Lin Qiao walked out and found that Teng was holding Xiao Yunlong’s hand between his teeth. “Teng, what are you doing! Let him go!” She immediately yelled at her son.
If the boy’s teeth broke Xiao Yunlong’s skin, she would have to bite that man too!
Teng relaxed his bite. Xiao Yunlong’s hand was covered in his saliva. Only a red mark was left on Xiao Yunlong’s hand, without any wound. The boy gave Lin Qiao a scornful glance, then snorted as he turned and buried his head in Lu Tianyi’s neck.
“Haha, you deserve that! You shouldn’t have tried to see his ‘little brother’,” Meng Yue covered her mouth with a hand and laughed; her shoulders were even shaking. The others looked at Xiao Yunlong and grinned as well.
Xiao Yunlong raised his head to look at the sky while murmuring, “I was just curious about what the boy’s ‘little brother’ looks like.”
“Have you never seen a baby boy’s ‘little brother’ before? You nasty man!” Kong Qingming looked at him and said.
Lin Qiao instantly changed her expression. “I see…” she said, “Teng, bite him again!”
Xiao Yunlong didn’t know what to say.
“Pah!” Teng leaned forward and spat with dislike.
“Oi, kid!” Xiao Yunlong yelled at him. Couldn’t the boy show him any respect?
“Pah!” Teng pulled his eyes downward with his fingers and let out his tongue, making a face to Xiao Yunlong.
“You naughty boy! You’re not cute at all!” said Xiao Yunlong.
Teng raised his chin and snorted coldly toward Xiao Yunlong, then turned and showed the man the back of his head. After that, he patted on Lu Tianyi’s shoulder and pointed at the living room.
Lu Tianyi understood that the boy wanted to go back in. So, he carried him back into the living room.
“Dinner is ready! Why aren’t Lin Feng and Zou here yet?” Wu Chengyue clapped his hands and said to the people, then murmured to himself. After that, he called Xiao Licheng, who was walking past him, and said, “Send a few men to see what they’re doing.”
“Alright,” Xiao Licheng was bringing a dish out of the kitchen. Receiving the order, he nodded and walked out of the house. Two minutes later, he came back in.
Everyone each found a seat to sit down.
Teng was in Lu Tianyi’s arms. Hearing Wu Chengyue say that the dinner was ready, he covered his mouth with a hand and whispered to Lu Tianyi, “Later, bring me to my Daddy, then find a way to distract him from the food.”
Lu Tianyi looked at the boy with confusion. The boy’s bright eyes glowed with a mysterious light. “What are you going to do?” He asked the boy alertly.
“Stay out of it! If you refuse to help me, I’ll tell Uncle Kong that you like Aunty Long!” Teng threatened him.
Lu Tianyi didn’t know what to say. ‘The kid is so smart!‘ he said to himself.
“I get it!” With a sour face, Lu Tianyi agreed to help. “What on earth are you going to do to your father?” he asked curiously after that.
“I’m going to help him to pursue my Mama!” said Teng.
“How are you gonna do that?” Lu Tianyi didn’t understand.
“By making them sleep with each other!” Teng explained.
Lu Tianyi was speechless.
