Chapter 429 - Hes loud, but hes harmless (1/2)
"He's not going to hurt me, is he?" asked Kai An. He seemed a little uneasy as he watched his brother-in-law walked away. It was as if a dark cloud was looming above him, threatening to strike him down if he made another mistake.
"Probably not… Not too badly anyway," teased Kai Xin. Her stomach rumbled slightly and it was then she realized that she had not been eating well since she woke up. She did not have much of an appetite yesterday, but now that she was home, she felt a lot better and so was her appetite.
Kai Xin then gently slapped Kai An's stomach with the back of her hand and said, "Out of the way, bro… I'm hungry…"
Jack placed his hands on the handle of the wheelchair. Before he started moving toward the dining room, he glanced at Kai An and commented with a wry tone, "I don't know… Dad is kind of overprotective when it comes to Little Monkey…"
He gave Kai An a look that said "You're dead" before shrugging and pushed Kai Xin toward the dining room.
With his head low, Kai An sighed loudly before he dragged himself over as well.
Everyone else went to the dining room with them. At the dining room, Sima Erden and Naomi Nakamura were sitting there waiting patiently for them. When Sima Erden heard Little Monkey, he had expected Kai Xin to be home. After all, DX was a man of his word.
Kai Xin greeted Sima Erden as Jack pushed her to her seat. Lyle had pulled her chair away so that she could "park" there instead of sitting on the chair.
"I think Uncle Callum is still at home… His door is closed...," Lyle mumbled before he took his seat. He then looked at one of the staff and told him to get his uncle.
A few minutes later, the staff came back and said, "Young Master Xun said that he's too tired so he won't be joining for breakfast…"
The staff then giggled and whispered to Lyle, "I think Young Master Xun has a guest in there…"
"Guest?" thought Lyle curiously before he waved his hand to dismiss the staff. As far as he knew, Callum and Ghost was a couple, and Callum had never brought anyone else home. As he poked one of the three sausages on his plate, he wondered, "What base are they in now?"
They enjoyed their breakfast as they talked. After a while, DX came back in with Little Monkey who was sucking on her pacifier. Her cheeks were red from her crying earlier and she was holding the little bunny. Well, it was lying low on her body.
When she would not stop crying earlier, DX had brought her back to the bedroom to pick up Mister Bunny.
He sat down at his seat next to Kai Xin and said, "She cried herself out…"
Kai Xin leaned over and patted Little Monkey's chest as she said softly, "Don't be scared, Daisy… That's your uncle, Kai An… He's loud, but he's harmless…"
Kai An came over. He froze in place when DX glared at him, but after Kai Xin slapped DX gently at the back to tell him to behave, Kai An felt safe to approach.
He took Little Monkey's hand and said, "Little Monkey, do you remember me? I'm your uncle...I came to visit you quite often when you were at the hospital… Well, you're always asleep so you might not remember me much..."
Little Monkey looked at him with a blank look. He was right, she did not remember him.
