One Birth Two Treasures: The Billionaire's Sweet Love Novel - Chapter 2249
Chapter 2249: Brother-in-law does not welcome me.
Time slipped by as the five carried their play until the wee hours. By the time the last game ended, it was already 4:50 AM.
The knowledge that it was already dawn did not diminish their enthusiasm.
Compared to the adults, the boy was feeling sleepy and wanted to go to bed. Hence, his mother brought him to his room, then coaxed him to sleep.
With the little ‘demon king’ gone, the game could not continue naturally.
Nonetheless, the boy’s partner-in-crime, the big ‘demon king’, was still looking fresh and alert.
In fact, the three men present were true workaholics, who held no distinction between day and night.
In particular, Gong Jie was so used to flying around the globe that the time difference did not bother him in the least. As such, he did not feel sleepy even after staying awake all night.
As for Hua Jin, the actor was already used to pulling an all-nighter to film night scenes, so staying up until now was nothing to him. The same could be said for Mu Yazhe.
He often worked up to four in the morning before he got married; thus, his biological clock was already used to an irregular sleeping pattern. Now that he was a family man, though, he was conscious of finishing work early, so he could return to his wife and children who were awaiting him at home.
The four sat at the table, and as the game could not go on, the lady host got snacks and tea for them all while they chit-chatted.
By 5 AM, she could not hold up any longer and, with a yawn, told them that she had to rest.
Hua Jin was about to go home when she stopped him. “It’s already late. Why don’t you get some sleep first; we have a few guest rooms upstairs.”
“Will I… disturb your family?” The young man was hesitant.
The hostess was about to speak when a voice boomed coldly next to her. “Yes, you will.”
She turned around with a start, only to see her husband telling the actor with a disdainful look, “So you’d better get lost now.”
Her brother quickly jumped to Hua Jin’s defense. “That’s not nice of you, brother-in-law! You’re merely saying that because you feel unhappy over losing to him repeatedly, and this is your way of taking revenge, isn’t this? What a loser—hmph!”
“Shut your trap!” coldly rebuked the male host as the other gave him a hostile look.
The woman hastily stepped in to ease the tension. “Alright, alright, stop fighting. Xiao Jie, why don’t you stay over, too?”
Her brother replied petulantly, “I want to, but brother-in-law doesn’t really welcome me.”
“You are right in that aspect,” immediately retorted Mu Yazhe.
“See!”
Upon her brother’s complaint, Yun Shishi walked over to her husband angrily. Clapping her two hands over the sides of his face, she kneaded his cheeks vigorously. “Hmph! Let me warn you: You’d better be nice to my brother!”
The man frowned slightly before he smiled indulgently at the coquettish woman standing in front of him. He held her hand uncaringly and planted a soft kiss on her fingertip. “Okay; anything you say.”
“Now, that’s my man!” His woman beamed, caressed his head lightly, and happily brought the guests upstairs.
The house had three guest rooms, one hall, and one bathroom on the second floor.
After settling the young men, she took two cartons of milk back to the bedroom.
Her husband was taking a shower while she stood at the bathroom entrance, sipping her milk as she openly admired his sexy bod.
