"Xiao Sen, co be my son!"
Liu Rushuang cradled Xu Musen's cheeks and pinched them.
As a child, Liu Rushuang often liked to pinch Xu Musen's cheeks, saying that he might as well go with her and beco her son.
Both families only had one child, but looking at each other's kids gave them the feeling of having both a son and a daughter.
But now that they had grown up, Xu Musen always felt a bit embarrassed when his cheeks were held like this.
"Auntie, we're already family."
"That's different, you see you still call auntie, I've only had Xiao Yue for a daughter all my life, and I've never had a good son. How about it, Xiao Sen, would you like to be my godson?"
Liu Rushuang expressed her idea, a bit tipsy, and there was a sowhat pitiable feel to it,
It had to be said, Liu Rushuang was better at acting coquettishly than Yao Mingyue and was even more adept at emotional manipulation.
Godson...
In fact, the two families joked about it often, but as their affection for each other deepened, the presence or absence of this title no longer made much difference.
What's more, both families hoped their children could end up together. This title might just make the two feel embarrassed.
So it had never been seriously brought up face to face.
However, Liu Rushuang had now brought up the matter herself.
Xu Musen and Yao Mingyue were montarily stunned, exchanging glances. Yao Mingyue was also sowhat confused, showing that Liu Rushuang had not discussed it with her beforehand.
But Xu Musen understood his forr mother-in-law.
As the saying goes, like mother, like daughter; Yao Mingyue's features certainly bore the imprint of her mother.
For a woman to have lifted such a large enterprise from the brink of bankruptcy demonstrated extraordinary capability and ntal fortitude.
Thus, any suggestion made by Liu Rushuang might have its special significance, and Xu Musen wasn't worried she would sche against him.
After all, Liu Rushuang genuinely treated him as her own family, though she might, like most parents,
do things she believed were for her child's own good.
In his past life, to outsiders, Xu Musen epitomized the pinnacle of living off a woman; no need to work or do household chores, plus a beautiful CEO wife who doted on him daily.
What's the big deal about losing a little freedom? Most ordinary people spend their days chasing after coins—can that be called freedom?
It's certainly better than working for others all your life, right?
But now, Xu Musen held a deep attachnt to freedom, so before doing anything, he would subconsciously ponder the consequences.
Seeing Xu Musen hesitate, Liu Rushuang displayed a look of being hurt, pitifully so.
"Xiao Sen, do you not like your auntie?"
"How could that be? You've always been very good to , it's just... it feels a bit sudden."
"Not sudden at all. I've long considered you my son. Just agree to it, I'm sure your parents will consent too."
Liu Rushuang said, her mature, exquisite face showing a hint of lonely lancholy amid her tipsiness.
"At ho, it's only and Ming Yue. Two won at ho always feel the house is empty and lack a sense of security. You both have grown up and will have your own lives, so our families won't be able to pop over uninhibitedly like before. If we can't beco one family, perhaps we'll slowly drift apart indeed."
Clutching her wine glass, Liu Rushuang took another sip, her beautiful features expressing a touch of vulnerability. She was sincere with her words.
Currently, if Xu Musen truly ended up with that girl, there would definitely be so distance between the two families.
They couldn't be as close as they are now.
Xu Musen wasn't sure whether Yao Mingyue had shared their situation with Liu Rushuang, but given Liu Rushuang's insight, she must have noticed sothing amiss.
Her last statent might have a double aning.
There are only two ways to beco one family.
First, Xu Musen and Yao Mingyue end up together, becoming in-laws, naturally forming one family, which is what both had always hoped to see.
But given the current situation, it was probably difficult to achieve.
So, the second way is to establish a godparent relationship, which also, emotionally, makes the two families legitimately one.
Xu Musen could guess so of Liu Rushuang's thoughts.
But looking at Liu Rushuang and Yao Mingyue, he finally nodded.
"Aunt Liu, I've always considered you my elder, and I've always kept your kindness in my heart. From this mont on, I will be your son. I will properly show my filial piety to you and take good care of Ming Yue. Please be assured."
Xu Musen's words were sincere; finally, his gaze turned towards Yao Mingyue, his eyes were not quite crystal clear.
"Yay! I finally have a son too, now our family has a little man!"
At this mont, Liu Rushuang was bubbling with excitent, her entire being flushed with joy. She reached out and hugged Xu Musen's head, rubbing it affectionately.
"Co on, Xiao Sen, call 'mom' and let's hear it!"
Liu Rushuang's delicate phoenix eyes shimred with emotion.
In fact, Xu Musen didn't feel too embarrassed; after all, he had been calling Liu Rushuang 'mom' since he got married to Yao Mingyue in his previous life.
"Mom..."
But as soon as Xu Musen spoke, he felt Yao Mingyue's gaze fixed on him.
