Chapter 56 - 56. The Scary Hong er I (1/2)
Third person POV
Dinner*
Bai Huiqing was puzzled by Weisheng's weird behavior. He had been bumping onto things and his food even dropped out from his mouth. Even Xu Tingfeng was suspicious of Weisheng's clumsiness. Weisheng was a dignified and noble person, for him to act like this mean something very bad happened.
Hong er had been concerned with Weisheng that she couldn't hold back her worries anymore. She took her handkerchief and dampened it. She grabbed his chopstick from his hand and put it down on the table, she wiped his messy mouth and his clothes that were stained when he dropped his food.
After she wiped it off, she passed the handkerchief to Huayun. She gently put her hand on Weisheng's big hand, Weisheng looked at her. Her face filled with worries, there was no smile on her face like the usual. He felt guilty for making Hong er worried about him, he put his hand on top her hand and smiled gently at her.
Hong er knew that Weisheng wanted to reassure her that he was fine. Her worries flew away, she smiled brightly at him. She pulled her hand from Weisheng's hand, Weisheng was a little bit disappointed but it disappeared in a second.
Hong er took an empty bowl an poured chicken soup in it, she put 2 chicken legs into the bowl. Weisheng stretched out his hand to take the bowl from Hong er but Hong er didn't see his stretched out hand. She took his spoon and scooped the soup, she placed it in front of his mouth. Weisheng happily ate what Hong er fed him, even though it was a bone, he would swallow it down for Hong er.
Xu Yongliang: ” Hong Jiejie, why are you being so unfair?~”
Hong er: ” ?”
Xu Yongrui: ” Hong Jiejie feeds him spoon by spoon but you didn't feed us at all.”
The three little Xu brothers were staring at Hong er with puppy eyes and pout on their face. Hong er chuckled and put down Weisheng's bowl.
Hong er: ” Hahaha, I thought that all of you had grow up. Liang er and Rui er had reached my shoulder, even Yu er had reached my chest when we were standing.”
Xu Zhaoyu: ” But he is way older than us.”
Hong er: ” Hhmm, makes sense. Then do you want Jiejie to feed you?”
Xu Zhaoyu: ” No need, we are mature. We don't want to disrupt Hong Jiejie's dinner by feeding us.”
Hong er: ” Wasei~~ So mature.”
Weisheng: ' Hong er likes a guy who can eat their food by themselves?!'
Weisheng picked up his bowl and ate the soup in a gulp. He ate the chicken with a perfect table manner, he proudly showed the empty bowl to Hong er. Hong er glanced at the empty bowl and nodded her head, she smiled brightly and patted Weisheng's head.
Hong er: ” Good good~~”
Xu Yongliang: ” Hong Jiejie, I finished mine too.”
Xu Yongrui: ” Me too.”
Xu Zhaoyu: ” Look!”
Hong er: ” Waahh~ What a good boy.”
Hong er patted their head while Weisheng glared at them from behind. He heard a chuckle and a bad feeling, Weisheng turned his head towards the source of the annoying chuckle. And he saw Xu Tingfeng with a big smirk on his face. Weisheng immediately got annoyed by that smirk, he glared at Xu Tingfeng. But Xu Tingfeng's smirk got bigger and he pointed at the three little Xu brothers.
Xu Tingfeng: ” They are my little backings, pfft, didn't I say just wait? I won't let you off that easily. Ahahahaha!”
Weisheng: ” You old geezer.”
Weisheng's hands were trembling from anger, when he thought that he can finally smoothly court Hong er to be his wife, there were obstacles from Xu Tingfeng. Hong er noticed Weisheng's trembling hand, she held his hand and patted his back.
Hong er: ” Are you okay?”
Weisheng's anger flew away, he held Hong er's hand and brought it to his lips. He kissed her hand and smiled gently at Hong er.
Weisheng: ” Hong er, I lov-”
