When Mu Chenyan said there are a lot of people here tonight, Gou Jinjin didn't think much about it but once she saw the people in the living room, only then she understood. There were definitely a lot of people here. Well, she should be used to it considering she had a big family but she wasn't.
But soon, she actually beca comfortable there. When her big family gathered, considering everyone was a doctor or in the field of dicine sohow, they only talked about that making it seem like a boring lecture. Here on the other hand things were different. Everyone ca from different backgrounds and had different personalities.
It seed more lively.
"How's your cat?"
Hearing that question from Raelle, Gou Jinjin's face dropped, "Raelle, let's not talk about it. It hurts." The person she was most familiar with here was Raelle apart from her aunt. But of course, she had t Xiang Wai and Xiang Weimin as well so it wasn't as awkward as she thought it'd be.
"Let's have dinner!" announced Mu Chenyan and asked everyone to gather around for dinner. Since there were more people tonight, they went to the dining hall to eat at the grand dining table which usually was left unused in this small family.
Now, it was of so use.
When Mu Chenyan clipped so green pepper beef tenderloin for Gou Jinjin, she said, "Eat more."
Hearing that, Hyson almost choked up on food he had yet to swallow. He drank so water and patted his chest. You can't bla the poor guy, on this table, there wasn't a single person who hadn't heard the sa phrase from Mu Chenyan before. Suddenly, his eyes fell on Cui Xukun and Amiah who were sitting a bit far from Mu Chenyan's reach and Hyson changed his words. Okay, there were two others who hadn't been served like this.
Even everyone from his group had been told the sa thing the first ti they showed up. And now, his amazing godmother took it upon herself to feed the new target.
Unbeknownst to Hyson's thoughts, everyone enjoyed the al heartily as always. It was true when Hyson say that no one can leave this house feeling unfulfilled. There was always sothing to eat here.
After dinner, everyone scattered again. This ti, Hyson pulled Raelle away from everyone.
"What are you doing?" asked Raelle. "Where are you taking ?"
"Let's sit under the moon and enjoy the sumr breeze," suggested Hyson.
"Even if you're interested in feeding the mosquitoes out there, I'm not," replied Raelle. "There is nothing to see out there."
Hyson rolled his eyes and then finally relented, "Then let's sit in the sunroom? Okay?"
"Sounds good."
So the two of them went to sit in the sunroom.
"So, what do you want to talk about?" asked Raelle. Of course, since he dragged her all the way here, he must have sothing to say. Or he wouldn't insist on pulling her here.
Hyson silently paced around as she sat there and looked at him moving around.
"What is it?"
"It's nothing," he said. "I just thought to spend more ti with you since I won't be around for at least a month."
"That's all?" she asked.
"That's all," he replied.
"Hyson, say sothing that I can actually believe," said Raelle. "Stop wasting my ti. Get to the point. Or if you're so eager to spend ti with , how about we have a movie marathon tonight?"
Hyson tsked at her, "You just know how to use my weakness against ."
"I learned it from you," she told him.
"Are you saying all the bad things are taught by ?"
"Isn't that the truth?"
Hyson gaped at her and sighed, "Fine. It's . Of course, it's . It's my duty in this world to teach you all the wrong things."
"Get to the point," she said again.
"It's about your sister-in-law," he started. "Don't kill if I rejected her and in the process, hurt her."
Raelle gave him a look, "Do you think between you and her, I'll choose her?"
"No," he replied. "But if given the chance, you'll definitely choose to protect her."
"Do you really need my protection?" she asked. "Just because you like acting like a baby, doesn't an you are one."
Hyson stuck his tongue out at her. "Whatever. I just thought of giving you a heads-up. Also, when I'm not here, take care of yourself. Your health is very important. Don't take it so lightly. There is no rush to work. You pay people high salaries to work. They should learn to function without you. And don't..."
"Stop." Hyson looked up at her. "I don't wanna hear your nagging."
Hyson rolled his eyes at her, "Of course, it's nagging. Anyway, when I'm not around, keep an eye on Opa, Yanyan, and my mum as well. I have an intuition that things won't be going smoothly. So, you have to keep an eye on my mum. Although Yanyan can take on anything, you should still lend her a hand."
"Got it."
"Also, go a little easy on your siblings and your father when I'm not here. Even if there is no need to be friendly, you can be civil."
"I'm always civil."
"Oh? Then refrain from saying too much. Rember the lesson I gave you, you don't always have to say what's on your mind. Sothings can be kept inside."
"You of all people shouldn't be giving this advice," said Raelle.
Hyson cleared his throat. He definitely shouldn't be giving that advice since he usually doesn't follow it himself but it didn't stop him from telling her to follow it.
"Is there anything else?" she asked.
"I'll miss you. So, you better miss too!"
"I'll try to rember you," she replied.
Hyson went over and held her shoulders saying, "I'll make sure to keep reminding you of my presence. Don't think it's so easy to forget !"
Raelle looked at his face and said, "I don't know what to do with you."
Hyson ssed up all her hair saying, "You can't do anything at this point."
