Two pairs of identical big eyes turned to look at him as their ownersâ heads tilted at the same exact angle.
Mu Yichen stomached all of his depression at once.
Sigh, he genuinely felt defeated by them.
The little dumpling seemed to have finally noticed her daddy. She stared at him and suddenly said loudly, âDaddy, werenât you out there making babies with big sister? Where are Tang Tangâs little brothers and sisters?â
âCough, Cough! Cough, Cough!â
It was Luo Chenxiâs turn to cough this time.
Just how deep was the little dumplingâs obsession with her younger brothers and sisters? How did the conversation get dragged into this topic again?
âThereâs no such thing, Tang Tang. Big sister only went out for work today, your daddy just happened to pick me up on his way back. Itâs nothing like what youâre thinking!â
âButâŠâ the little dumpling looked confused. âUncle clearly said it just now, that big sister and daddy arenât home yet at this hour, so they could be out there making babiesâŠâ
âTang Tang!â
Mu Yiling rushed over in an attempt to stop the little dumpling from saying anything more.
However, it was already too late.
He raised his head and looked at his brotherâs ashen face. He felt like crying dry tears for getting dragged into the crossfire!
All he did was casually blurting out a complaint about his brother and sister-in-law for coming home late. Unluckily for him, the little dumpling overheard his words and said them straight to Mu Yichen.
He was definitely getting screwed over this time!
As expected, Mu Yichenâs voice was ice cold. âIt seems to me that you have too much free time at hand everyday! Coincidentally, the company has a project in Siberia recently, you shall take over it. If you mess this up⊠Donât even think about coming back!â
âWh⊠what? Big brother, no! Please!â Mu Yiling cried.
Siberia was a godforsaken h*ll hole.
Staying there for one day was enough to make him go insane!
He quickly turned to Luo chenxi, âSister, help me plead for mercy! You wonât just watch me get sent to that h*ll hole, right?â
âUh, IâŠâ
Luo Chenxi really wanted to tell Mu Yiling that she was not a real Mrs. Mu, so it would be useless for her to try helping him.
However, seeing the pitiful state that Mu Yiling was in, she still said in a soft voice after briefly hesitating, âMu Yichen, Second Young Master didnât really mean what he said, thereâs nothing to it. Why are you getting so angry about it?â
Mu Yichen furiously glared at her.
How could this woman have completely no idea of the reason he was this angry? She even had that innocent look on her face!
âEven if youâre not going to Siberia, you canât just do nothing everyday. Report in to the office tomorrow!â
After blurting out his words, Mu Yichen went straight upstairs to his study room.
Mu Yiling let out a long breath of relief and looked at Luo Chenxi with gratitude. âSister, as expected of you! Big brother usually listens to no one, you are the only person capable of convincing him. Poor me! As the younger brother, my place in the house is just getting lower and lower.â
Luo Chenxi laughed dryly. âSecond Young Master, youâre overthinking it.â
She really did not think that a man who threw gloomy looks at her everyday would listen to her.
Today was definitely a coincidence.
That was right, a coincidence.
âBig sister? Did Tang Tang say something wrong?â
Suddenly, the little dumpling tugged on Luo Chenxiâs skirt and said with a puzzled face.
Luo Chenxi hurriedly picked her up, âThatâs not true, Tang Tang is such a good girl! Oh, right, letâs hurry up and go get dinner. You mustâve been hungry for so long, what if you get a stomach ache? Be sure to always have dinner on time, got it?â
âHuh? Tang Tang has already eaten!â The little dumpling blinked.
âWhat?â
Luo Chenxi had a face full of surprise.
The little dumpling already had dinner?
Did Mu Yichen not clearly mention that the little girl was waiting for them to go home for dinner?
Did she hear it wrong?
As puzzled as Luo Chenxi was, she did not probe further and carried Tang Tang to the dining room.
As she had dinner, the little dumpling also ate a little more, and her little tummy bloated into a round shape.
After dinner, Luo Chenxi accompanied the little dumpling to play in the game room for a while before the little girl got tired and fell asleep on the bed.
Then, Luo Chenxi walked out of the childrenâs room and closed the door.
When she turned around, she saw the butler standing behind her.
âButler Chen, is something the matter?â
âYoung Madam, the Eldest Young Master has been working in the study ever since he came home. He hasnât had dinner yet. As you know, his study room is forbidden to us servants and we are not allowed to enter, so⊠can I trouble you to take his dinner to him?
