Chapter 318 - Plus One For Her
Xin Xiamu smiled at Azalea and walked to her side, "Hey, little teddy bear!"
After a moment of surprise, Azalea grinned in a goofy way. "Kade, how? I mean what are you doing here?"
"Why? You are not happy to see me here? Or perhaps after wandering around the world, you think, I’m too boring." Seeing him lamenting, Azalea was dumbfounded. "I should have known. In the end, I’m just a neighbor to my teddy bear."
"I didn’t mean that..." Azalea frantically denied. "I am more than just happy to see you. I’m over the moon. How can I not be happy?"
On the side, Ye Jun kept his eyes on Azalea’s face. He didn’t know if it was an illusion or this girl really looked like a fangirl at the moment. Her eyes had the same sparkle of admiration and adoration for Xiamu as any other crazy fangirl would do.
He found Azalea a lot cuter with her lovestruck expressions.
"Xiamu," hearing Yu Kim calling out to him, Xiamu turned towards her.
"Let’s catch up later, little teddy bear." Xiamu patted Azalea’s head and walked away.
Azalea touched her head where his hand had just been and looked at his back with a heavy heart. Looking at him walking towards Yu Kim, she felt sad for some reason. It had always been like that. He would always walk away as long as Kim was the one calling him.
Delighted to see her sulking by herself, Ye Jun put his arm around her shoulder and pulled her close to his side. "Looks like our little Zelie is a bit lovestruck."
Azalea’s eyes widened at his words as she tried to smile. "What nonsense! Pfft! Don’t be funny."
"I’m being funny?"
"Yes, Jun bro. Don’t overthink." She squirmed a bit and ran out of his grasp.
Ye Jun snorted to himself. "Overthink? Little Zelie, I see my own self in your eyes. How is it just my delusion?" He was someone who had looked at Jun Li Na with the same emotions from the moment he first laid his eyes on her. How could he be mistaken about Azalea’s feelings?
Everyone settled down as the dinner was served by the servants. This dinner was even more harmonious and lively than the breakfast at the He Family house.
Fan Bingbing chose the seat right next to Yang Ziyi while she made Wu Wang sit on the other side of Yang Ziyi. This arrangement seemed weird to Wu Wang until he saw the way his mother was actually putting food in Yang Ziyi’s bowl.
"Aiyoh, how can you be so skinny? You are a doctor, if you won’t be healthy how’ll you make your patients healthy? Pay more attention to your meals." Fan Bingbing kept reminding Yang Ziyi to take care of her health.
Seeing her reaction, one thing became very obvious to Wu Wang; he was doomed. His mother’s gaze had finally locked on a prey; Yang Ziyi. No matter what now, she was definitely going to coerce him for marriage.
Suddenly an image of him standing with Yang Ziyi in a white gown on an altar, flashed through his mind. Oddly, Wu Wang felt they both looked good together. They matched each other perfectly.
Realizing there was a silly smile on his face, Wu Wang slapped his own face to knock himself out of this scary dream. Match perfectly? He cringed at his own thought.
"Mrs. Wu, you’re really being polite to me. I can really take care of the meal. You should also eat." Yang Ziyi humbly placed a few side dishes in Fan Bingbing’s bowl making the middle-aged lady feel more satisfied.
’She’s also kind to the elders. Plus one for her again.’ Fan Bingbing was screaming inside but it was a pity that she couldn’t just drag this doctor and make her tie the knot with her son.
But she had to do something. Since her son was nothing more than a broken shoe, she had to show Yang Ziyi that after the marriage, she’ll get the best-est mother-in-law. Who can refuse to that? Apparently, in Fan Bingbing’s opinion, no one would say no to a loving mother-in-law.
Yang Ziyi’s phone rang and she excused herself from the table for a while. Behind her, Wu Wang glared at his mother. "Maa, what’s cooking in that scheming brain of yours?"
"What?" Fan Bingbing immediately played the innocent part.
"Don’t act smart with me. I know you very well. You definitely have some ideas in that brain of yours." Wu Wang would never believe that his mother was innocent. His mother and act nice to a stranger for no reason? He’d only believe it if the sun rose from the west!
"Why would I try to act smart with you? I’m already smart, I don’t have to act like one." Wu Wang was dumbfounded as he just realized how similar his mother was to Yang Ziyi. If his mother really succeeded, wouldn’t he have nowhere to retreat between these ladies? His heart jolted at just the idea of it.
"Maa, I’m telling you. I don’t want to marry anyone. Don’t get your hopes up. If you have that much spare time, focus on Jian. Not on me!" Wu Wang gave a warning to his mother who was unfazed as she rolled her eyes at her son.
"Hey! Why are you dragging me into this?" He Jian chimed in from Fan Bingbing’s other side since he could hear them clearly.
Wu Wang turned his gaze to He Jian and said, "I’m just making it clear that I won’t marry until you are married. And that’s final!"
He Jian frowned while Fan Bingbing smiled slyly as she sat between both the boys. "Don’t worry, my useless son. Jian will definitely get married before you." And she will make sure of it at all cost. How could she break the promise she had given to her own daughter?
