Chapter 992
In the state banquet hall, Tang Zhou entered the room and immediately started looking for his queen-like little sister-in-law. He hadn’t seen Ye Xingguang yet when he spotted an adorable mini version of Xiao Hua, wow, what kind of divine little treasure is this?
Tang Zhou couldn’t control himself; he had long heard from Ji Qishu that this little baby called Xiao Hua was soft, adorable, and lovely to hold, making one wish to offer up all the best things in the world with both hands.
Indeed, little Xiao Hua was already being monopolized by someone else.
Ye Qinghan, the young Crown Prince of the Ye family, was playing the role of a warm and hospitable host. He took Yin Xiaohua’s little hand and brought her to a collection of pastries, asking her what she liked to eat: “You can pick anything. If you can’t reach it, I’ll help you.”
Ye Qinghan, who is about the same age as Mo Yinhe, didn’t forget to hand his favorite set of gun model puzzles to Mo Yinhe while entertaining Yin Xiaohua: “This is for you.”
Mo Yinhe glanced at the toy gun puzzle, his distaste not showing on his face for the moment. Cool and aloof, when he saw Ye Qinghan, he felt an inexplicable sense of kinship. After accepting the gift from little friend Ye Qinghan, he handed over his own real gun that he carried with him: “What goes around comes around, this is for you.”
Ye Qinghan: “How old are you?”
Without hesitation, Mo Yinhe replied: “I’m older than you, call me brother. From now on, I’ve got your back.”
Ye Qinghan: “Do you know how old I am?”
Originally, Ye Qinghan wanted to take Mo Yinhe as his underling, but someone had beaten him to the punch and taken the lead.
Mo Yinhe lied without blinking an eye: “I know, I’m older.”
Ye Qinghan: “Alright.”
Ye Qinghan accepted Mo Yinhe’s real gun, thinking it was a fake, and carelessly played with it in his hands. There was no danger in playing with Mo Yinhe’s gun since it was currently unloaded.
“Ye Qinghan.” At this moment, a little princess came trotting over, looking for playmates.
Adults have their social circles, and kids have theirs too. Dressed in a pink princess gown and hopping over, the adorable princess was the former President Yanbei’s little treasure, Yan Zhenxi.
“Wow! You’re so beautiful.” Yan Zhenxi complimented Yin Xiaohua.noveldrama
Yin Xiaohua loved being told she was beautiful. She handed the little cake she just got to Yan Zhenxi: “You are also beautiful, this is for you to eat.”
“Thank you, my name is Yan Zhenxi, what’s yours?”
“I’m Yin Xiaohua.”
Yan Zhenxi took the cake and actively grabbed Yin Xiaohua’s little hand: “Can we play together? This is a gift I picked for you. My mom and dad said that since you’ve come from afar, Ye Qinghan and I should take good care of you. You can ask me for anything you want.”
Yan Zhenxi’s assistant handed a fluffy toy to her, which she then gave to Yin Xiaohua.
“Wow! This is my favorite, we’re going to be best sisters from now on.”
Yin Xiaohua, easily swayed, was so joyful she could almost fly. After thinking for a bit, she took off the pearl jewelry around her neck and hung it on Yan Zhenxi’s neck: “This is for you.”
Then the four children teamed up, boys with boys and girls with girls, forming a little playgroup.
Mo Yinhe was very resistant to having his hand held by someone else, but he had promised to take care of Ye Qinghan as his brother. So when Ye Qinghan held his hand, he only struggled a bit before letting him, finding himself oddly enjoying Ye Qinghan’s closeness.
Mo Yinhe pursed his lips, wondering why he felt this urge to be close—could it be that he’d been charmed by Ye Qinghan?
