Chapter 492 a long way to go (2/2)

His eyes slightly narrows in sending the boy a vicious glare, then to his wife.

Why is it that no matter where his wife goes, there is some kind of bee buzzing around her like he is not here.

Sensing his glare, Yue Ling was even more stupefy. Sometimes she wonders what happened to Lu Tian's high IQ and EQ.

How can he be jealous over someone who is almost a decade younger than him?

Lightly shaking her head, she reach for his hand and stood up from the couch.

”Fei Tao, what Tian said is right. It is getting late so we should all catch up another day.”

She gives the young man a smile then looks at Qin Yi who had also came out from her daze.

”Once the situation with Chu Li Xiang is taken care, we can go for a nice dinner and talk.”

Fei Tao's expression turned even more sad as he wanted to refute, but the middle-aged woman sitting next to him, lightly nudge him.

He sighs aloud and nods his head like an obedient boy.

”Fine. I know you won't go back on your words.”

A soft sigh escapes Yue Ling's lip as she walks over to the boy. She lifts her hand and gently pats his head like how she always did to Ji Jingxu.

”Take care of yourself and don't get into any trouble.”

She looks at Qin Yi and bids the woman goodbye as she and Lu Tian walks out of the room.

Once the two people were gone, Qin Yi glance up to the boy and stood up to leave too. However, seeing the sad look still on him, she heaves a long sigh.

”You're not a child anymore, why do you still act like one?”

Hearing her words, Fei Tao snorts a hmmf with his head turning away from her gaze.

”Only in front of her can I still act like a child.”

Everyone sees him as a very mature boy since he had taken over Black Jade at the age of twelve. However, what others do not know is that, he is still a child who has a lot to learn.

Of course, this childish side of him is only shown to Yue Ling as she is the most important person to him.

She was the main person who was by his side throughout his journey of being a very young leader.

When he learned that Yue Ling had left the underworld, only God knows how much he had cried to himself. He thought he would never see her again.

Qin Yi stares at the boy with the corner of her lip slightly twitching.

He had spoken his words in a tone full of arrogant, but she can see that his moist eyes were not a lie. The boy is trying his best not to cry.

Shaking her head, she reach to pat his head as she pities him.

”Don't touch!”

Just as Qin Yi's hand was three inches from his head, Fei Tao quickly reacted. Both his hands raise to block his head like he was protecting himself.

”Yue Ling just patted my head. If you pat my head, you're going to rub off her touch.”

”…”

Qin Yi was even more flabbergasted than ever. She sarcastically scoffs and rolled her eyes at his words.

”Kid, you still have a long way to go.”

Without waiting to see his reaction, she walks out of the room.

Whether Fei Tao's feelings are that of a brother or a man, all she knows is that with Lu Tian by Yue Ling's side, the boy is of no match.

Left alone in the room, it was Fei Tao's turn to be flabbergasted.

He stares at the door in the direction the old woman left, and he could not believe what he just heard.

He knows that Yue Ling is out of his league, that's why he rather be a younger brother to her than no one at all.
