Then, he rubbed the kitten’s head and said, "Please cheer up your mommy, and I will reward you with delicious little dried fish next ti."
Qiao Er perhaps understood Lu Moqing’s words and owed in agreent.
When Qiao Xu returned to the room from the backyard, the Old Master and Qiao Chong’er happened to co downstairs. Both of them gave her a aningful look.
Feeling uncomfortable under the ambiguous gazes of her grandpa and aunt, Qiao Xu wanted to change the subject. Just then, Qiao Chong’er exclaid, "Wow! This cat is so cute!"
Lu Moqing followed Qiao Xu into the room, with Qiao Er still in his hands. Qiao Chong’er ca forward and snatched Qiao Er away from him.
Lu Moqing was sowhat unwilling. He had carefully chosen this cat for his wife, so how could he just give it away to soone else?
However, this person was his wife’s biological aunt, and they seed to have a good relationship. He thought it wasn’t the right ti to upset her.
Qiao Chong’er pretended not to notice the unwillingness on Lu Moqing’s face, holding the kitten as she walked to Qiao Xu’s side, tentatively asking:
"I saw you holding this cat upstairs earlier. Have you nad it yet?"
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xu glanced at Lu Moqing subconsciously. Thinking about the refined na he ca up with, she found it hard to say aloud.
"Qiao ... Qiao Er."
Qiao Chong’er had just taken a small bite of a sliced apple on the tea table. When she heard the na from Qiao Xu’s mouth, she almost choked on it.
She stared at Qiao Xu’s uneasiness, the corners of her mouth twitching violently several tis as she tried not to laugh out loud. But after holding back for a mont, she couldn’t help it and burst into laughter.
Then, her laughter beca uncontrollable, "Qiao Er? Hahaha ... Qiao Er? Is he Qiao Yi’s younger brother?"
Qiao Xu already had trouble accepting this down-to-earth na. When she heard Qiao Chong’er’s unrestrained laughter, her expression beca even more delicate.
That "naming expert" Lu Moqing, on the other hand, calmly walked over. He took Qiao Er back from Qiao Chong’er’s hands and placed the cat into Qiao Xu’s hands. He then said indifferently, "Yes, Qiao Er is Qiao Yi’s younger brother."
Hearing this, Qiao Chong’er laughed even more uncontrollably.
She discovered that her aloof forr nephew-in-law was actually quite fun, especially when he so seriously introduced Qiao Er as Qiao Yi’s younger brother, and his possessiveness when taking Qiao Er back from her. Qiao Chong’er found herself liking her forr nephew-in-law even more.
Except for Lu Moqing and Qiao Xu, everyone in the living room wore smiles of varying degrees on their faces. Even the just discharged old man was red-faced with laughter.
At this mont, the housekeeper led two people in from outside, "Second Mistress, Auntie’s Husband, and Cousin Miss have arrived."
The previously cheerful Qiao Chong’er saw Xiao Yi and his only daughter Xiao Yingying, who had followed the housekeeper into the room. Her laughter froze imdiately.
Then, her beautiful face suddenly turned cold.
Qiao Chong’er had not told the Old Master about her situation, and she didn’t want him to find out now that Xiao Yi had arrived. So she walked to Xiao Yi, her expression indifferent:
"Let’s go outside and talk."
"Why should we go outside? Since they’re here, let’s just talk inside."
The Old Master’s voice, carrying a hint of intimidation, rang out.
