Reborn: The Lion To Hunt The Wolf - Chapter 241
Sitting at her father’s side, looking nonchalant and attractive with his jet-black hair that was silky smooth as it shone under the light. His purple pupils were as clear as water and framed by long, curly and thick lashes.
His gorgeous smile was blinding as he saw her staring at him, which made Yue Wan’s ċhėst inexplicably become filled with a soft and warm feeling.
Noticing her presence, Yue Yeager smiled with an open mouth: “Little Wan, sit down and have your breakfast. It’s all your favorite. Where is Bao? His meatballs are here too.”
Hearing his name, Little Bao his head up with sparkling eyes: ‘Your cute Bao is here, grandpa.’
Yue Yeager felt delighted seeing his spirited grandson, then his attention turned to his daughter.
Looking at her stunned expression seeing the man, Yue Yeager coughed and introduced: “Young Master Xiao, I would like you to meet my daughter, Little Wan.”
The man pursed his lips into a slight grimace as he introduced himself as, “Hello, I’m Xiao Hua. President of Xiao International Crop. Nice to meet you, Ms. Yue. You look more beautiful than I saw in the magazine.”
Yue Wan stared blankly for a moment before she quickly snapped back to her senses.
Xiao Hua gave a killer smile and stared at her with those deep eyes.
Thump-thump-thump!
Yue Wan’s cheeks heated up, she dug her head down to hid her red face from other’s eyes: “…”
Heck!! That seriously tormented Yue Xiang to the point where he dropped his chopsticks. Why couldn’t this jerk hold back his dratted loose mouth!
Uncle Wang, who was standing attentively next to Yue Yeager, drew back a chair for Yue Wan.
Accepting the gesture, Yue Wan thanked Uncle Wang and placed Little Bao in his cat seat, which was exclusively prepared for him.
Yue Wan ducked her head and ate her food quietly, she dare not face the person sitting before her. ‘What is he planning now?’
Even though Xiao Hua’s path of love filled with flowers and kisses, there was a huge obstacle to cross over, and that was getting his father-in-law’s approval.
So he kept serving Yue Yeager everything on the table: “Uncle Yue, try this food…” he said as he placed a slice of meat onto Yue Yeager’s plate.
‘Uncle,’ So intimate, Yue Yeager was takeback: “Young Master Xiao…”
Xiao Hua interrupted as he placed a fishball in his bowl: “Please call me, Hua. You are my elder and it is my honor to serve you. After all, we will soon be one family.”
Hearing that, Yue Wan coughed out uncontrollably. ‘Say what!!’ She hated that she couldn’t slam her head into the ground to wake up from the nightmare.
Yue Yeager quickly patted her back: “Are you alright?”
Yue Wan reassured her father with a smile and glared disdainfully at the man before her: ‘Shut your mouth or else I’m going to kill you!’
Xiao Hua lowered his head and curved up both sides of his lips. ‘She looks cute even when she is angry. I want to kiss her.’
Next second he composed himself with an elegant smile and said: “Ms. Wan, you have just returned from training so have some light food. They say a woman’s stomach is delicate, so drink some warm congee.”
Yue Yeager nodded along as his impression of Xiao Hua raised up by one step: ‘Not bad! He is considering her health.’
“Little Wan, have some water. I will ask Uncle Huang to prepare congee.”
Xiao Hua said: “Tell them to prepare the herbal chicken soup. It’s good for blood nourishment and bone strengthening. Sorry for imposing orders in your home, Uncle Yue. Your daughter is very thin and small, she needs lots of nourishment.”
‘Show-off,’ Little Bao lifted his head from the bowl and scoffed.
Yue Yeager smiled up as his impression of Xiao Hua continued to improve and stopped in-between the stage:- Very attentive and polite attitude.
‘Small!’ Recalling the past suggestion regarding her ċhėst, Yue Wan’s cheek turned hot: ‘This rogue!’
Right then, Xiao Hua passed the cup water to Yue Yeager with an indication to help Yue Wan out. Yue Yeager saw new light behind Xiao Hua. ‘This lad is good, compared to my smelly brat.’
Little Bao eyed at Yue Yeager dully, thinking inside that his grandpa was stupid beyond help while Yue Wan’s coughing got extended as she stared at her boyfriend’s shameless act.
Yue Xiang’s face twisted into a scowl and he bumped his forehead with the hand: ‘Someone, please kill this annoying Lunatic guy for the sake of the world.’
Xiao Hua leaning close to Yue Xiang: “Don’t bump your head Brother-in-law, you’ll become even more foolish than you are now.”
Gritting his teeth, Yue Xiang: “You’re being mentally unsound. Did you take the wrong meds?”
After looking at Yue Xiang for some time, Xiao Hua suddenly asked, “Very caring! Did you fall for me? But you are not my type.”
Yue Xiang almost smashed Xiao Hua’s face on the table, he muttered: “Are you always this retarded or are you making a special effort today?!”
Xiao Hua: “Suck it up! The fact is that I’m intelligent beyond your understanding.”
Yue Xiang: “Do you want a piece of my mind?!”
Xiao Hua: “Oh no, I couldn’t take the last piece. You won’t survive without it.”
They both were engaged in the telepathy war, however, under Yue Yeager’s eyes, they looked like they were getting along very well. He tugged his daughter: “Little Wan, your brother is having a normal conversation with that Young Man. This is weird! Did he sleep on the wrong side of the bed?”
Yue Wan helplessly signed: ‘Where this is going to end?’
These two were the rarest of the rare.
….
As the breakfast came close to the end, Xiao Hua and Yue Yeager got well accustomed to each other. However, Yue Yeager didn’t accept the privilege of calling Xiao Hua by name. He still preferred ‘the new Xiao Heir’ as the latter didn’t grow up under the Xiao family. However, his habit of eating was elegant and dignified like he was trained from his childhood. This caused a dilemma in Yue Yeager’s heart.
Xiao Hua knew that Yue Yeager hadn’t accepted him, so he gazed at his buddy for a plan.
Though Yue Xiang gave him an expression, ‘I say it’s impossible so don’t expect my help,’ face.
Burying his head back to the meal, Xiao Hua thought of a plan and said: “Master Yue, if you don’t mind, could your daughter escort me on a tour around the villa? I would like to get to know her.”
Yue Yeager’s eyes widened as he stared at Xiao Hua’s friendly face, his heart was in turmoil.
‘Why are these Xiao members keen on stealing my daughter?’
Xiao Hua thoughtfully looked at Yue Yeager and then turned to her. He did not miss the way she looked all embarrassed and he laughed softly.
Before Yue Yeager could reply, Yue Wan interrupted them with an exclamation: “Little Bao, don’t sleep like that. You will hit your head!”
Yawning, Little Bao had dozed off with his overfilled tummy, his head wobbled in all directions with a drooling mouth. ‘Let me eat! I can eat one more meatball!’
Yue Wan picked it as an excuse to dash off to her room with the cat in her hand. “I will put Little Bao to bed.”
Xiao Hua rested his chin on his hand as he looked at her retreating figure: ‘Wish I could tie you up and make you mine, Wild cub!’
Looking at his pal, Yue Xiang signed in heart: ‘Being stupid isn’t as easy as it may look. But! This guy walking in the straight road becoming one.’
