As soon as Yan CheungWei left for the Outhouse, Yan Meilin and Grandma both looked at Wen Zhenzhen,...then slowly, their faces broke into a smile, and very soon the whole mansion reverberated with the trio's laughter.
"What is this Zhenzhen,... why do you always scold Fenhua in front of Ah Cheung? Are you not aware of his personality?" Grandma shook her head.
If not scold, then what do you want me to do, my dear mother-in-law? It's such a treat to watch CheungWei defending Fenhua... I know I act rigid, but I love them both as my own and who in the world would be able to resist their love for that naughty queen... she is such an angel," Wen Zhenzhen revealed her deep feelings.
"You are right, she is the life of this house, eh! Do you remember, when she first came into the mansion, she was so small, and with her soft, waxy voice she used to call me *Grandma*... sigh, those days... I don't know when Ah Cheung will confess his true feelings, which he is hiding behind his angry mask," Sun FeiHong sighed.
Please don't worry Grandma, everything will be fine, and you will very soon see Ah Cheung, and Huahua becoming one. Yan Meilin cheered both ladies.
Yan Meilin, as stated above, is a cheerful person. She is Yan CheungWei's older sister(Jie), age 26, completed her masters, and now works as a Head Fashion Designer at Yan Fashions, which is a part of Yan Holdings. Yan Meilin and Yan CheungWei both relied on eath other since her parents' death, though they stay with their maternal family, the siblings bond became strong as they shared hardships together. Yan Meilin's relationship with Fenhua is unique and vice versa. Fenhua treats Yan Meilin as her big sister and tattles everything to her, be it her joys, sorrows, complaints, which are mainly about her Wei Sir, in a word, she is Fenhua's dumper, while Yan Meilin too, loves Fenhua as her little sister.

Outhouse... Living room.
Yan CheungWei ran inside the Outhouse and, the sight welcomed him, made his heart melt, he was rooted in his spot and savored his visual entertainment who sat with her legs wide on the sofa, her eyes pointing nose, head down, chin touching her collarbone. TV entertaining the walls, as she sat glaring at the remote as if, it had stolen favorite channel... her mouth formed into a stubborn pot, she looked so damn cute that all he wants to do only one thing, that is to cuddle her in his arms and kiss her pouty mouth all day.
"Ahem! Ahem!!! " Yan CheungWei slightly cleared his throat, which resulted in an increase in the TV volume.
"Shine your clothes in just a single wash, buy one get one free!
*Excello detergent*- cleans you just like your clothes..."
Yan ChuengWei stumbled as soon as he heard the commercial, but that did not stop his efforts in catching her attention, this time, he was loud, "Ahem... ahem!" but the commercial was louder.
*B*ring guard!... B*ring guard!... B*ring guard!*- scratch your itch with B*ring guard and get instant relief.
The MD of Yan holdings' face turned so dark that it resembled a money's butt. Breathing heavily, he hollered.
"FENHUAAAA!!!"
The perpetrator who was responsible for his anger jumped at his high voice and instantly switched off the TV.
"What are you thinking, increasing volume like that?" Yan CheungWei asked sternly. Emotionally challenged he was, he couldn't show his emotions other than anger.
"Nothing!" a rather dull whisper came from Li Fenhua which caused him to be even more restless, hating his failure at expressing emotions, Yan CheungWei paced agitated. She was always a bubbly bundle, chattering endlessly, but now... she is looking like a withering flower, and all this is because of him.
"Which Universities have you applied to?" CheungWei tried to change the topic causing Li Fenhua's eyes to widen; she bit her tongue.
*She hasn't applied yet*
"Umm... that, ...uhmm," she shuttered.
"What! Uhmm, uhmm... You haven't, right? Oh, wait! How could I forget, Madam Li Fenhua always has endless important things to worry about and bestow her care for a mere University, how could she, right?... Sigh... Never mind, knowing how careless you are about taking care of yourself, I will apply myself, you just need to sign the application form," Yan CheungWei declared.
Li Fenhua twisted about in sofa, clearly scared as she gave a nervous smile.
"OK!" ... Again a monosyllable...Yan CheungWei gritted his teeth angry at himself that he couldn't even cheer her up when suddenly an idea struck him, he smirked.
"You haven't had your breakfast yet, right?" CheungWei raised an eyebrow.
"No, why?" Li Fenhua twisted her willow brows in confusion.
"Nothing, just that Zhang Niu made Crystal dumplings and Caramel Pancakes today," Yan CheungWei looked at her through the corner of his eyes and said casually.
Food is always his flower's weak point!
A spark lit her face, she started to beam radiating 1000 voltage light... Yan CheungWei smiled in secret when he saw her facial expression change, and his tight heart relaxed.
"PANCAKES!!!" Fenhua shrieked and like a jet ran towards the mansion, forgetting everything, and just like that, her anger instantly disappeared.
" She is as innocent as a new flower bud, his child-woman," Yan CheungWei felt, spring gushing into his heart, his entire being radiated with happiness. He can never bear her gloominess.
**************************************
Mansion... Dining hall.
After hearing from Yan CheungWei that her favorite Caramel Pancakes were prepared for breakfast, Fenhua was not able to control herself and ran towards the dining area.
Zhang Niu, the square-faced butler, was busy arranging the table along with Wen Zhenzhen, who was helping him.
Yan CheungWei's Uncle, Lin Beingwen was already settled at the table.
"Oh! Fenhua child, come and have a seat," Lin Bingwen patted the seat beside him and indicated her to sit, to which Fenhua beamed and sat eagerly beside him.
Seeing Zhang Niu arranging everything at snail speed, Fenhua rushed him.
"Zhang Niu, we are waiting to have breakfast, not dinner. Prepare faster... ugh, never-mind, I will help myself."
In reply, Aunt said, "Fenhua, be patient, you will get your breakfast," at this Fenhua pouted cutely.
At the same time, Sun Fenhong who came along with Yan Meilin came downstairs for breakfast, "Yes, Zhang Niu, prepare faster, our Huahua baby is hungry, see how sunken her face looks?"
Seeing her Grandma and Yan Meilin, Fenhua beamed with happiness.
Li Fenhua enthusiastically started, "Good morning grandma, good morning Jiejie(sister)," to which both wished her back with the same enthusiasm.
" Where are Ah Cheung, and Yuyu?"
At Meilin's inquiry, Grandma replied, "Ah Cheung will be coming soon, and Yuyu is getting ready for the company, you know how he is, he is scared that Ah Cheung will scold him for his tardiness again."
As they both immersed in the talk, CheungWei and Jainyu came there and greeted them. After which, they took their respective seats, and began the usual boring business talks.
"Ah Cheung, Yuyu, how many times do you want me to repeat that there shouldn't be any business discussions at the dining table, eating time is family time, have you both forgot?" Sun Feihong chided them.
Yan CheungWei and Jainyu were instantly silenced, "Ok, Grandma!"
Lin Jainyu was beside Fenhua, whereas Yan CheungWei sat opposite to her.
Seeing Li Fenhua's *sullen face*, Yan CheungWei already guessed what the reason could be, he frowned, and with a stern face scolded Zhang Niu.
"Zhang Niu, where the hell is breakfast? How much time does your respectful self want to serve?"
"Sss... sorry Young master, I will immediately prepare" with that square-face run towards the kitchen as if bloodhounds are chasing after him... in few seconds, the piping hot breakfast was served to all.
Fenhua flashed a beaming smile at CheungWei and dived into her Caramel Pancakes.
Everyone was eating slowly with proper etiquette, whereas our Fenhua was busy gulping big-big bites of Pancakes as if it has been 100 years since she last had her food.
Jainyu, who was beside her, worried that she would choke suggested, "Huahua, what's the rush, eat slowly, no?" Reply to this question was a heavy stomp on his feet.
"AAAHHH!"
"What happened, Ah yu?"
"No... nothing Dad," Jainyu answered Li Bingwen. The pain in his feet reminded Jainyu that Fenhua is angry with him due to this morning incident, hence her wrath. There's a saying that everyone is responsible for their own actions. Since he chose sides, now naturally had to bear the consequences.
Yan CheungWei broke into a knowing smile. At first, CheungWei was busy observing how fast Fenhui ate, and himself became hungry because of it, but his naughty princess couldn't even last a few minutes without any mischief.
Seeing CheungWei's smile, grandma elbowed Yan Meilin, who was beside her, both were delighted to see happy emotions touching his face as he very rarely showed them.
"Ahem! Ahem! What happened Yan CheungWei, why are u smiling? Share with us too so that we too can smile." In a teasing manner, Sun Feihong spoke.
Yan CheungWei, who was busy admiring Fenhua till now was shocked, as he was caught red-handed.
