Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful - Chapter 336
Chapter 336: Joy Burst Out (1)
Right after Su Ruixin spoke, Mu Tingfeng was struck dumb.
His original intention was to use a child to tie Zhao Youlin in order to increase her sense of belonging to him so that she could not leave him.
However, upon hearing Su Ruixin’s words, he was finally enlightened. He had been overly focused on children which had instead infuriated Zhao Youlin. As a result, she could not wait to separate from him. He had put the cart before the horse.
When Su Ruixin noticed Mu Tingfeng’s change of expression, she knew that he had heard her words. She heaved a sigh of relief and continued to advise him, “Now, you already know where the problem lies. Listen to me, put up with Youlin for this. Otherwise, don’t regret it yourself and blame me for failing to remind you of this.”
Upon hearing Su Ruixin’s words, Mu Tingfeng’s expression darkened. Yet, he did not say anything further to refute her.
Just then, the two suddenly heard Zhao Youlin and Su Qing’s loud laughter rising from behind.
Su Ruixin looked in the direction where the voice came from and was greeted by the sight of the two adults and two children interacting harmoniously. She moved her gaze and seemed to have thought of something. She pulled Mu Tingfeng happily and took the initiative to go up to Zhao Youlin.
Mu Xiaoyang had been following closely behind Su Ruixin. When he saw this, his almond-shaped eyes flickered and he seemed to have realized something. He followed them.
“Qing, Youlin, Joy…” Su Ruixin called out to them warmly. She brisked up her pace and came before Zhao Youlin and the rest.
“Madam Mu, Mr. Mu.” When Zhao Youlin saw Su Ruixin and Mu Xiaoyang, she nodded her head politely. However, when she caught sight of Mu Tingfeng who was behind Su Ruixin, she decided to ignore him coldly.
Mu Tingfeng, who had been treated as if his presence was invisible, fell speechless…
When Su Qing saw his younger cousin being put on a spot, she felt incredibly gleeful. However, at that moment, she could not express her feelings. She could only hold her laughter back, and greeted the two elders.
“Aunt, Uncle, when did you guys arrive? I didn’t see you around.”
“We’ve just only arrived. You were busy so we didn’t come over to you. Where’s Yi?” Su Ruixin cast a glance at Zhao Youlin before she turned around and spoke to Su Qing.
When Su Ruixin heard her husband’s name mentioned, she smiled and said in a low voice, “Dudu is hungry, so Yi is preparing milk for him.”
“That’s how it is.” Su Ruixin nodded her head. Then, she paid attention to the two children. She cried out happily, “Joy!”
“Grandma Su.” When Joy heard Su Ruixin call him, he replied sweetly to her. Su Ruixin had been making trips down to the Zhao family these few days, so she had grown close with Joy.
As Su Ruixin looked at her precious grandson, her heart melted. She cast another glance at the child opposite Joy. She realized that Joy’s finger was in Dudu’s mouth. Dudu was sucking her finger like he was sucking…
Su Ruixin was stunned. She exclaimed in shock, “Joy and Dudu, these two… what’s going on?!”
Su Qing and Zhao Youlin locked gazes upon hearing Su Ruixin’s words. They let out a bark of laughter again.
“What are you all so happy about?” While the two were laughing, suddenly, a silvery voice that came from a male rose from behind.
Zhao Youlin froze. She looked in the direction where the voice came from and was greeted by the sight of a man in his twenties who was walking toward them.
The man was dressed in light blue formal wear. He was smiling faintly and holding a bottle of milk which totally did not match his appearance.
Generally speaking, this combination should provide an amiable impression to others. However, Zhao Youlin instinctively retreated.
This was her first time feeling this way about someone. She never felt like this even when she was in the military school and met those instructors who were insanely strong and capable.
This man was very strong, at the same time, he was dangerous as well! Why did she feel this way? Perhaps, this was a woman’s sixth sense, or to be precise, a beast’s instinct.
Zhao Youlin was greatly alarmed when this man was approaching them. Her face subconsciously turned ghastly pale, and her hands and feet were as cold as ice.
While Zhao Youlin’s entire body was stiffening in place, and stared wide-eyed, not knowing how to react as the man was getting close to them, a warm hand stretched out to her and held her icy cold left hand. She was snapped out of her daze.
“Why is your hand so cold? Do you want to put on some clothes?” She heard a familiar voice that carried a hint of worry.
Tonight, Zhao Youlin was in a knee-length dress. It was already late summer, but there was still a huge temperature difference between day and night. The temperature at night was much lower than during the day.
Zhao Youlin turned her head around and met Mu Tingfeng’s eyes that carried a hint of worry. The tension she felt just then vanished within an instant. Instead, the feeling was replaced with slight embarrassment. “I’m fine.”
Mu Tingfeng cast a glance at her in a displaced manner. He then looked in the direction where she had been looking at. The next moment, he seemed to have realized something, and he slightly frowned.
“In the future, when you see Big Brother Yi, don’t look into his face, especially his eyes.”
Upon hearing Mu Tingfeng’s advice, Zhao Youlin was once again stunned. On second thought, she understood that My Tingfeng was kindly reminding her not to confront the person’s most prominent features.
It looked like she was not the only one who noticed that person’s terrifying presence and great strength.
The people beside her had placed their attentions on Song Yi. They did not notice the brief exchange between the two.
Song Yi came up to Su Qing. He passed the milk bottle of average temperature over to Su Qing, and gave a peck on her cheeks. He simply ignored the presence of the many guests including the elders.
Su Qing’s face turned red, and she looked down. She was so shy that she glared at Song Yi fiercely. She pretended to focus on feeding her precious son to calm her reddened face as a result of her husband’s teasing.
When Zhao Youlin caught sight of this, she was surprised to learn that the way the man looked at Su Qing had softened up. Even the smile that arched across his lips appeared more sincere. He looked completely different than before.
Of course, this happened only when he was interacting with Su Qing. When he looked at them, he resumed his normal self.
No, to be precise, he became more restrained as he cast a glance at them. He no longer looked as cold and dangerous as if confronting strangers opposite him as he approached them from afar. It could be because he was currently in contact with Su Qing.
Song Yi saw his wife rolling her eyes at him which was nothing threatening. The smile that showed up in his eyes grew increasingly prominent.
When Su Qing looked down to feed their son, Song Yi turned his head around and greeted the two elders, “Aunt, Uncle, you guys have arrived.”
Su Ruixin and Mu Xiaoyang seemed to have gotten used to this. Mu Xiaoyang nodded at Song Yi, while Su Ruixin sized Song Yi up and said with a smile, “Yi, you have lost some weight compared to last time.”
“Is it? This guy often fights for food with me. How could he lose weight? Apparently, he has gained more weight!” Su Ruixin complained at Su Ruixin while stuffing the pacifier in the baby’s mouth, saving Joy’s finger that had gotten soaked wet from the baby’s licking.
