Li Qingshuo glanced at him and said with a smile, kicking his legs up, "What's the point of singing karaoke during the day? Isn't drinking more fun?"
He Mingrun looked at him, "Drinking leads to trouble!"
Li Qingshuo: "..." Thinking of Yun Xia, it was indeed quite troublesome to drink.
He even lost his son.
Alas!
Mu Jiuchen looked at him and asked, "Are you serious?"
He Mingrun recounted what happened at the airport, omitting the pleasant feeling of their embrace.
Those kinds of things, as long as they knew themselves, were enough.
That belonged to the most beautiful feeling between them, and he still felt it now.
Li Qingshuo looked at the pathetic He Mingrun and felt very sympathetic. Although his mother urged him to get married, she wouldn't be like He Mingrun's mother, insisting on a marriage of equals.
In his mother's opinion, as long as it was a love that both parties desired, it was enough.
The most important thing was that they loved each other.
His mother, having gone through it, knew that being with someone you don't love only brought pain.
And someone who loves you will make you a better person!
"Young Master He, you don't need to struggle with this matter. We know exactly what kind of person your mother is. If it's not a marriage of equals, if it's not a daughter-in-law she can control, she will absolutely not let you marry her."
"You should just go and stay wherever you're comfortable. Otherwise, you'll have a harder time later. With your mother's temper, she will definitely threaten Meng Yuan to leave you. When Meng Yuan suddenly disappears one day, it will definitely be your mother's doing."
He Mingrun: "..." He instantly felt that Li Qingshuo was quite annoying.
Mu Jiuchen looked at He Mingrun's displeased expression and agreed, "Qingshuo is right. Your mother is just like the wicked mother-in-law in a melodramatic plot!"
He Mingrun: "..."
He glared at the two of them with a sullen expression, "I asked you to accompany me to sing karaoke. Why are you two talking so much nonsense?"
Mu Jiuchen stood up and said, "Wait a moment, I'll go up and brief the children."
Li Qingshuo also said, "I didn't say I wouldn't go."
He Mingrun also got up, "I'll go upstairs to change."
When he wasn't working, he preferred to wear casual clothes.
The two of them didn't go up and instead watched Jiang Shaoqing run down.
Li Qingshuo and He Mingrun couldn't tell who was the older sibling and who was the younger.
The three siblings looked so alike.
Mu Jiuchen, however, could distinguish, "Darling, do you want water or to pee?"
Jiang Shaoqing's footsteps immediately stopped on the stairs, and he glared at his father with wide eyes. After blinking a few times, he asked doubtfully, "Ninth Master, I've already passed the infant stage. I'm a young man who can take care of myself." As he spoke, he stylishly brushed his jet-black hair.
Mu Jiuchen: "...I just wanted to pour you some water!"
"Heh heh..." He Mingrun looked at the little fellow. He really looked like young Jiu when he was little. However, as soon as he spoke, He Mingrun knew he was the little koi.
"Little koi, we meet again!"
Jiang Shaoqing looked obediently into He Mingrun's eyes, then looked at his face, and said, "Hello, Uncle He. Wow! Uncle He, your peach blossom luck is very strong. Don't refuse. It's a very sweet love, but it's also very bitter. What else was there...?" Jiang Shaoqing tried hard to remember, but couldn't.
He Mingrun was stunned and looked at Jiang Shaoqing in surprise, "Little koi, can you really read fortunes?"
Jiang Shaoqing nodded, "Mmm! It's quite magical. I don't know if I can read fortunes myself, but when I saw you today, I knew what was going to happen to you. Half good and half bad. If you get through it, it will be happiness. If you don't, you'll be alone for a lifetime."
He Mingrun: "..."
Li Qingshuo suddenly became interested and ran over, "Little koi, quickly check on Uncle Li. What will happen?"
Jiang Shaoqing looked at him with clear eyes, blinked, and said, "Uncle Li, your eyes are so deep. I can't see much, but you'll live a long life."
"But..." Jiang Shaoqing tilted his head and looked at Li Qingshuo. It was so strange.
"But what?" Li Qingshuo looked at him nervously.
"But..."
Just as Li Qingshuo's smile bloomed, Jiang Shaoqing said another "but..." and stopped. His smile gradually froze.
What was he doing?
Could he believe what a child said?
He was really bored to death!
"Are you married? You have children," the little koi said slowly, then walked towards the kitchen. He was hungry and wanted to eat chicken legs.
Chicken legs were left for them in the kitchen. He had to eat one to have the energy to lead the team.
Li Qingshuo stared at Mu Jiuchen fiercely, "Did you tell Little koi about me?"
Mu Jiuchen gave him a side-eye, "They don't know. If they did, you'd be in trouble. Yun Xia is someone they cherish dearly."
Li Qingshuo: "...But Little koi he..."
"He's sometimes quite right, but don't take what children say too seriously."
After Mu Jiuchen finished speaking, he watched Little koi walk out holding a plate of braised chicken legs and eating them.
The three of them: "..."
As Little koi walked past him, Li Qingshuo counted, "One, three, five, seven, nine, nine... nine."
Li Qingshuo was stunned, "Can you eat nine by yourself?"
Little koi looked at him with wide eyes, thinking this Uncle Li was a bit idiotic.
"Uncle Li, we are three siblings." He easily got heatstroke. The fried chicken legs were changed to braised ones, but they tasted good, and he liked them.
Li Qingshuo: "..." It served him right to be looked at with an idiotic gaze.
Jiang Shaoqing looked at He Mingrun, "Uncle He, keep going. If the girl you like is Aunt Meng, then you need to be patient. When Meng Yuan stares at you blankly, it means she's falling in love with you. I'm only telling you this because she's Aunt Meng. If you liked other girls, I wouldn't have said anything."
"Finally, if you adults have anything to do, just go and do it. We children have our own circles, and we have our own things to do." After saying that, Little koi took his long little legs and climbed the stairs step by step. His movements were careful, for fear that the chicken legs in the plate would roll out.
Mu Jiuchen looked at him and felt a pang of heartache.
He walked over a few steps, picked up Little koi, and said, "If you need anything, have the servants send it up for you."
Little koi smiled and kissed his father's face, "Thank you, Ninth Master! But Mom said, 'If you want something, work for it yourself.'"
Mu Jiuchen stopped talking. Nuannuan's educational method was quite good.
He Mingrun was stunned for a moment, then smiled and went upstairs to change.
The three grown men went out. Li Qingshuo asked, "Little Jiu, where are we going?"
Mu Jiuchen: "To the newly opened Brilliant KTV. I happen to be going to inspect it."
Hearing this, Li Qingshuo got a little annoyed, "Get lost. You're unwilling to put aside work even when you're supposed to relax."
Mu Jiuchen drove seriously. The sparse sunlight fell on his handsome face, making it dazzlingly beautiful.
He said in a deep voice, "I happen to have time today."
Li Qingshuo stopped talking. Anyway, he was on vacation.
He was now a delicate and weak young boy.
