On the other hand, Xiao Zhiren had just taken a seat with his breakfast in hand when Adrian popped out of sowhere right beside him.
"Zoran, how can you do this to ?" Adrian gave Zhiren a look of grievance making him frown.
"Let eat first," Zhiren pushed him away as he dug his fork into his pancake and lifted it to his mouth to take a bite.
"My life is at stake because of you and you’re actually in the mood to eat? How can you even swallow anything right now?" Adrian shouted at him angrily.
"Because I am very happy. Actually, I haven’t felt this happy since like forever." Xiao Zhiren wasn’t lying. He indeed was flying high above in cloud nine. Why wouldn’t he? The person he had loved for years was actually willing to stand by his side now. Nothing else really mattered at this point to him.
"Happy? Your girlfriend almost killed last night and you’re happy?" Adrian looked at him weirdly.
"My girlfriend? Did you et my little chili? Why? How? Where?" Now, Xiao Zhiren’s attention was solely on Adrian. How was it possible that sothing was related to Ru and Xiao Zhiren would ignore?
Adrian straightened up and narrated the story of Ru’s threat to him. Also, how she actually beat him. He was really sulking in the grievance. She was the second person in his life who treated him like that. The crown of first-person was solely for Alev Knight. Poor Adrian didn’t even know that both first and second were actually just one tricky person playing with his mind.
"I had been so upset since last night. But you tell , this world has millions of females. Why does it have to be her?"
Xiao Zhiren slapped his head and said, "Because it has to be her. Only her. Besides, what’s wrong with her?"
Adrian rubbed his head and said, "Nothing is wrong except for the fact that... She is related to Alev Knight."
Xiao Zhiren rolled his eyes before laughing out. He really wished to see Adrian’s reaction if he figured out that Alev Knight and his girlfriend were both the sa people. He imagined how much of a shock would it be for Adrian.
"Get over it. There is nothing wrong with dating soone related to Alev Knight," said Xiao Zhiren.
Adrian was irked but when he cald down for a while, he said, "Well, considering how gorgeous she is. I also think there is nothing wrong with you dating her. Don’t you think that Alev Knight’s family genes are too good?"
Xiao Zhiren choked on his food and coughed profusely. He drank a mouthful of water and punched Adrian’s arm saying, "Don’t you hate Alev Knight? Why are you so curious about his family genes?"
"Why can’t I? I know I hate Alev Knight but let’s be honest here, one can’t deny that he’s a lady killer with just his looks," said Adrian while Xiao Zhiren pursed his lips. "Sa goes for your girlfriend. I wasn’t in the position to admire her beauty at that ti, but I can say it now that she is..."
"If you dared to talk about my girlfriend one more ti, I’m gonna kill you." Xiao Zhiren’s warning sealed Adrian’s lips. Adrian could see how possessive Xiao Zhiren was. The weirdest part was he wasn’t even allowing him to say anything about her.
As Adrian’s eyes wandered around, he tapped Xiao Zhiren’s shoulder and said, "You aren’t even allowing to talk about her. Then how can you leave her alone with that guy." Xiao Zhiren also followed the direction he was looking at and saw Ru with Jie. "Isn’t that guy too close to her?"
Xiao Zhiren couldn’t refute that. Even from his position, he could clearly see Ru’s comfort level with Jie. It was like she had no care in the world beside him. Even when he knew that Jie was her cousin, Xiao Zhiren was apprehensive. He knew Ru was tearing her walls down for him but the way she looked at Jie showed her unprecedented trust in him.
"He is my little chili’s cousin brother. They are close like real siblings." Xiao Zhiren didn’t know whether he was explaining this to Adrian or to himself. But sohow saying it out loud made Xiao Zhiren feel a bit relaxed.
"Should we go and say hi then?" Adrian was suggesting it but the way he pulled Xiao Zhiren up seed like he wasn’t gonna take no for an answer. Not like Xiao Zhiren wasn’t curious about seeing Ru’s interaction with Jie. He was really curious. So, he let Adrian drag him easily.
Back on Ru’s side, she looked at Xu y inquisitively and the latter answered, "Little Bao is sleeping, Sensei. Why are you so impatient? When he will wake up, I’ll bring him right to you. Keep him for the whole day."
Ru made a sad look and said, "Isn’t he sleeping for too long?"
Jie pinched her nose and said, "Little kids need sleep for their growth. Do I have to tell you that as well? You never were this impatient to even see ."
Ru knocked on his head saying, "Jiejie, you’re a brother. Little bunny is my nephew and my godson. Obviously, I’m very biased right now towards him. Especially because he doesn’t tease like you."
Jie was about to speak when he looked at soone walking up to them and leaned close to Ru and said, "Your man is coming. What charms did you use that he’s not even leaving you alone for a mont?"
Ru turned her head to look at Xiao Zhiren and smiled before pushing Jie away saying, "Go hug your baby. Don’t talk about my man!"
"Oh, soone is protective about HER man..." said Jie playfully.
Ru didn’t pay any attention to his teasing and turned around to face Xiao Zhiren. "Are you done with your breakfast?"
"Mhmm..." Xiao Zhiren humd in reply as he wrapped an arm around her waist from the side and kissed her temple.
Beside them, Jie was amused to see how Xiao Zhiren was trying to claim Ru right before him as his own. It seed childish but considering what Jie had done for Xu y, he found it rather cute. Adrian was glad to see that Xiao Zhiren was not afraid to show his love. Ru was frowning since she clearly told him there’d be no public display of affection.
However, between all those feelings, there was a certain person who felt like she was dreaming. This scene of Ru being in a man’s arms felt surreal. No, the right word would be absurd. Xu y’s heart was again struck by a thunderbolt.
