Chapter 15 - Uncle and Niece Talk

Ruyi was on her study about to do her work when a boisterous old man came in "Yi'er what's this about the kids that you brought here? Are they you--" Jack couldn't continue as he was hit, face flat, with a book Ruyi threw.

"You think?" Ruyi said taking another book already in position with her death glare towards her uncle...

"O-of c-course Uncle is kidding" Ruyi put away the book. "But how come you got two kids to bother you, that's very... not you... The only one you actually allow to bother you is you brother Shen" Jack paused then continued "Are you really Yi'er?????!" with a face that says 'Did a ghost possess my niece?'

"If I'm not your niece, then who am I supposed to be?" Ruyi sarcastically replied.

"Uhh... the kids' mo-- umph!!!" Jack couldn't continue his words when another flying book decided to land on his face.. "That hurts okay!!!!"

"Stop talking nonsense" Ruyi was getting more stressed out with her uncle's antics... 'Me, a mother... Is this guy nuts? Really uncle?' Ruyi sighed.

"Well, I'm just curious... How come a cold devil like you, was able to bring two angels here in this hellhole..." Jack keeps on teasing his niece.

"Well this demon didn't bring them to a hellhole... It's paradise... I don't even understand why they call me moth-" she stopped when she realized she was about to say 'mother'

"Mother? You... Hahahahahahaha... ugghhh!!!! Stop throwing!!!! That hurts damnit... Are you really my niece?" Jack was cursing injustice towards his niece's actions.

"You, how do you dare call yourself an uncle huh? You're even laughing at my situation..." Ruyi is already pinching the space between her eybrows.

"Uncle, can you do me a favor... like... just this once" Ruyi faced her uncle with seriousness "Can you please help me investigate the history of those kids... I, I don't know why... but I can't seem to hate them nor distrust them.... I feel.... light with them... I think... Not like my brother who I feel I really love but I just feel comfortable with them..."

"..." Jack was already surprised when she asked for a favor, and almost got a heart attack after knowing what the favor is... 'Am I seeing things? Hearing delusions maybe? R-ruyi said please? To me? Me?'

"Uncle? Earth to uncle please~" Ruyi tilted her head in wonder.. 'The hell's he thinking?'

"Okay, I'll give it to you as soon as possible." Jack then went out and drive back to his house. He had a thought that would make him scared of Ruyi more. 'Did she possibly remem- Nah... It's been 3 years already...'

"I should probably finish these now..." Ruyi picked up a document and started working. Several hours passed, she finally finished it. "Oh, it's already five... better prepare for the kids' breakfast" Ruyi promised the kids breakfast so they will go and rest last night, hence, arriving at the kitchen, the maids were beyond terrified of seeing their miss' cooking.

"Hmm... perfect!!!" Ruyi turned around and saw the maids looking at her. She coughed a little, bringing them back to their senses and said, "Please wake up my guests and invite them for breakfast".
