I Hate You, Devil!

Chapter 74 It will pass

What followed little Rui’s question was a deafening silence. After a while, Yu Chen slowly retracted his hand but no words left his mouth.

His gaze fell on the little buns who were still looking at him, blinking innocently with anticipation evident in their eyes and he cleared his throat before he leaned back on his seat.

"Well..." he finally started. In that moment, the twins weren’t the only one who was waiting for his answer but everyone who was with them. "Soon." He continued.

Silence enveloped the car again after his one-word answer. His men’s jaws dropped in disappointment, speechless, but not the little curious guy beside him.

"How soon?" Little Rui asked again and Yu Chen fell into another trance.

By that time, their car had just entered the huge gates of Scarlet Hill so Yu Chen’s men finally dropped their guards down. Of course, Gu Wei who was sitting just beside Little Rui heard what the little guy said loud and clear so as soon as they drove into the safe zone, the man suddenly mumbled.

"How could your mommy and daddy give you a baby sister when you two are always in the way every night in their bed..." Gu Wei gasped and he covered his mouth as soon as he realized that he was actually saying those words out loud.

His head moved towards the father and sons trio like a robot and as soon as he saw Yu Chen’s deadly glare pointed on his neck, he cried without tears. Before he could even attempt to redeem himself and tell the kids that he was just kidding, little Rui spoke first, not to him but to his dad.

"Daddy, actually... Ranran and I are too old to still be sleeping with you two so I think it’s time for us to have our own room now, right Ranran?"

Everyone, most especially Yu Chen, was surprised by the boy’s words, except of course for the quiet little Ran who was nodding like an old man, showing his 100% support behind his brother’s idea.

Yu Chen couldn’t speak. He was thinking about whether it was better for him tell the truth now, that he and Luo Xiaolei weren’t married yet, but he somewhat hesitated. He didn’t want to decide all this without Luo Xiaolei’s approval.

"We will talk about this too, once your mommy is home." Yu Chen finally replied and the man who was screaming the words ’I second the motion’ just a moment ago, dropped his shoulders in disappointment. Boss, why does it feel like you’re the wife here who is afraid to bypass his beloved hubby in making an important household decision?!

...

Yellow bell orphanage...

It was already dark when Luo Xiaolei left her secret base. She had texted Yu Chen after her class to let him know that she would be coming home late and the man told her to call him once she was ready to go home. So, here she was, calling Yu Chen as she walked on the sidewalk.

"Hello? Sorry, it took some time for me to finish." Luo Xiaolei explained as soon as the call connected.

"Where are you?" Yu Chen’s voice was low, really so pleasing in the ears.

"I’m near Yellow Bell’s orphanage right now, already waiting for a taxi."

"I think it’s better if I come and pick you up."

"No, it’s alright. I can’t trouble you for..."

"It’s dangerous to ride a taxi alone at night." Yu Chen’s tone change a bit, he sounded serious, causing Luo Xiaolei to put her lower lip between her teeth and then quickly surrendered.

"Okay." She replied and the man immediately told her to stay put and wait for him.

When the call ended, Luo Xiaolei took a deep breath. She stared at Yu Chen’s name on her phone, "Mr. Devil", and she smiled. She also looked at his photo, wearing his panda outfit with two little pandas on either side and the smile on her face widened. The next moment, she edited his name and typed in ’Daddy Panda’, before she giggled.

She put on an earphone and she leaned back on the street post. She stared at the sky while she was listening to a sweet song.

The entire day she was away from him, from the three of them, Luo Xiaolei was constantly being distracted. She couldn’t get him out of her head, even during class. She thought that it was all because of that goodbye kiss he gave her this morning. God only knew how many times she shook her head the entire day to stop that scene from replaying over and over in her head. But she felt as though that kiss was a potion he made her drink so that she would think of him the entire day.

Luo Xiaolei found her reaction nonsensical and she couldn’t believe herself. She never expected that she would be so affected and distracted this much just because of a goodbye kiss on the forehead. Luo Xiaolei, how old are you? You’re basically an auntie in her 30s now, you know?

She couldn’t help but force a laugh and then she shook her head again because she realized that she missed them; this time, it was not just the twins, but also him. No matter how she denied it, the moment Yu Chen said he would come pick her up, Luo Xiaolei’s urge to see him intensified.

Once again, Luo Xiaolei let go of a long deep sigh. Devil, you really are damn dangerous! Insanely dangerous! You actually had me feeling infatuated like this... sigh... relax Xiaolei, it’s just an infatuation. That’s normal, it will pass.

While Luo Xiaolei was busy trying to convince herself, a taxi slowly halted before her. A man stepped out of it and walked behind her while the taxi driver, who somehow looked a bit too formal to be a driver, offered her a ride.

Luo Xiaolei politely declined the offer and told the man that she was waiting for someone to pick her up. But for some reason, the driver’s gaze suddenly turned indifferent before he rolled up his window, causing Luo Xiaolei to crease his brows. What was that? Did he got mad because I rejected him?

At that moment, the music in her earphone stopped, indicating that someone was calling her. She slipped her hand on her pocket and received the call without bringing the phone out when suddenly... before she could say hello, she felt someone’s presence behind her.

Luo Xiaolei snapped behind her and she was right, the man who left that taxi was standing before her, his hand hanging on air and he was holding a white folded handkerchief. With just one look, she understood what he was trying to do.

"Hello? Xiaolei?" Yu Chen’s voice rang in her ears but she couldn’t speak. It was because the man before her was now looking at her with murderous intent.
