Yuyu supported her head with her tiny chubby hands as she cast a curious look at Wang Shi, "Dad said he kissed mom to make us. Are you two making-" Before she could speak one more word, Wang Shi stuffed her mouth with a bun.
"EAT!"
Oh, hell!
What imagination do kids possess!?
Who said they are innocent, they are little devils in disguise!
Suyin's face burned. She was mad and thoroughly embarrassed. Her stomach churned, suddenly more interested in running away from there rather eating this awkward breakfast. This will surely not digest!
Wang Shi still had the grace to look up at Suyin's face, and answered comfortably, "Not me, but the one sitting across you."
Suyin's gaze instantly traveled all the way to the grumpy fairy with red cheeks. "Oh, he!? I can do that again." She deflated into her seat.
A little disappointed! Don't know why.
"Dare you," Honey warned, his red cheeks puffed up in anger making him look irresistible.
"Are you sure you want me to dare?" Zhao Suyin finally couldn't control her hands and pinched Lan's cheeks who was fan-girling her.
"Eating without me?!" A cheerful voice caught everyone's attention as a tall handsome man walked in, bringing along his cheerfulness like a breath of fresh air.
He casually walked to the table to greet his favorite kids but paused seeing a woman eating breakfast at the table.
He was astonished and cast a curious glance at Wang Shi, who seems indifferent.
"Woww… Finally, the magic happened! Senior cousin, you found someone to get married! And here, naïve me was about to introduce someone to you. Thank God, I didn't." He gasped excitedly.
Yuyu giggled, "Uncle Juju is so funny."
"Uncle Junjie, SIT DOWN." Feng Junjie, one of Wang Shi's three cousins was dumbfounded when Honey pulled his hand, forcing him to take a seat.
Honey, "She is not what you are thinking."
Feng Junjie, "Then who is she?"
Honey, "Weirdo duck"
Lan, "Pretty sister."
Yuyu, "I'm yet to decide what to call."
Suyin "…."
Wang Shi felt like a headache. If he didn't handle this brother sooner, the news will spread to the entire family. Amidst the chaos it slipped his mind he messaged him to drop kids to school.
"She is Miss. Zhao Suyin, a social worker." Wang Shi answered, "Take these three to school. I've got surgery scheduled."
"But what is she doing in your home? I need more info," Feng Junjie whined. If he didn't get his fill of gossip he'd feel constipated entire day.
Wang Shi grabbed the schoolbags and threw it at Junjie, "NOW…"
"Miss, I'm Feng Junjie, trouble you to ask how did you end up here?" Junjie ignored Wang Shi's sharp gaze and leaned forward on the table, supporting his chin.
Suyin was busy eating when she felt a pair of twinkling eyes directed at her. She looked up; though a handsome face but the person before her was surely a walking talking gossip tabloid.
"Zhao Suyin, from social services."
She looked back at her plate, that's the most Feng Junjie attracted her attention. She has an automatic filter, any unnecessary thing gets filtered out automatically.
Junjie, "That I know, but-"
"Take these pupp… kids to school. You hear me." Wang Shi pulled him by the collar, dragging all the way to the door.
Junjie whined, "I came minutes ago, at least let me eat breakfast."
"No"
Junjie, "Miss Zhao, 92XXXXXXXX. If you need information about my brother, call meeeee….." His voice echoed.
Suyin "…."
Kids immediately followed. Honey stopped amidst walking and narrowed his eyes at Suyin, "Dare not!"
Suyin "…"
"Into the car," Wang Shi instructed the kids before pulling Junjie to a corner, "You better keep your mouth stitched before I do it for you. Literally!"
"Not even uncle and aunty?"
"Do you know I have a list of your ex-girlfriends?"
"…."
******
"Why are you fidgeting so much, it's all right? You were drunk, and I happened to help you." Wang Shi's implacable smoky voice broke the awkward atmosphere as he drove Suyin to her office.
Like a potent force, his voice rippled the seductive current in her body that raced her heart. Already she was nervous sharing the same ride and now when they are alone, she wanted to talk about last night but words seem impossible to come.
"Please tell me how many shenanigans I did last night? And why the hell my bum hurts?"
"Well…. Your bum hurts because I threw you on the road when you poked your finger in my eye as I carried you to the car." Since she's so eager to embarrass herself, he would not let her down.
"..."
Suyin's gaze inadvertently landed on his side profile, "S-so that's why your eye is s-swollen."
"Undoubtedly."
Suyin swallowed, resisting the urge to facepalm, "What else?"
"Gave tens of kisses to honey, called him a puppy, broke few things in the bathroom and puked over Aunty Li as she helped you." He listed it, simple and detailed.
Suyin "…."
Suyin felt like crying, she was utterly ashamed of doing so much in front of the man who was her crush. Damn! He would surely disdain her from now on!
'Is it too late to die?'
"Dr. Wang Shi, I'm extremely sorry for everything. Alcohol and I didn't go well together, I won't drink it again." She folded her hands, "Let me pay for everything, your eyes, broken things, Aunty Li's clothes and you under-" She slammed her lips shut before the word comes out.
Wang Shi "…"
"Ahem," He cleared his throat, "That was unused."
"Not like I mind-" Finally she pinched her lips tight before her unrestrained tongue could do anymore worse.
Wang Shi "…."
Just how many times a human can embarrass himself in a day? She was setting new standards!
Wang Shi was amused how easy going and natural she was, liking the charge he got from being around her. The bluntness of her nature had rooted into her to the extent she could not help uttering the truth even if she doesn't want to.
Such a free soul!
A small smile crawled his lips, he even failed to notice his thoughts were occupied by the girl's entire time. So unusual of him!
"There it is."
"Thank you."
Suyin jumped out of the car as if sitting over hot pan all this while.
"Miss. Zhao,"
She turned hearing his voice and peeked into the car. "Yes,"
Wang Shi, "Who's hottie bum?"
"…."
"That… that… that… got to go…. BBye….."
Wang Shi chuckled seeing her escape.
"Cute,"
