" Eep! Mother and daddy are being lovey-dovey!" Lang Ru who just came pushing Lang Hui on the wheelchair that was specially crafted by Yu Dong for Lang Hui's convenience until the little mer's legs were healed. Closed her brother's eyes and shouted making Zhu Qian and Lang jump away from each other.

  Zhu Qian hurriedly wiped his tears and faked an unhappy expression as he raised his hand and smacked Lang Ru's fluffy head and scolded his daughter, " you really have grown up, aren't you Ruru? You dare to tease your parents like this, from where did you learn this?"

  " From Mai," said Lang Ru as she let go of her brother's eyes and rubbed the back of her head. " He caught his sister being lovey-dovey with his brother in law and he teased sister Dong as well."

  Picking up a broom and swinging it at his daughter who dodged it skilfully, Zhu Qian chided. " Do I need to remind you what happened after that? Mai wasn't allowed to eat candies and snacks for two weeks straight, and it would have been longer if not for his brothers in law pleading on his behalf. Only then did Sister Dong forgive him, and as for you young lady—— you don't have a brother in law to plead for you. So you better watch yourself."

  Lang Ru skipped to her mother and hugged her calf as she poked her tongue at her daddy. " I still have mommy with me."

  Lang laughed at their antics and lightly slapped her daughter's head from behind. " You are really good, Ruru. You tease mommy and yet you want mommy to back you up against daddy, huh?"

  Covering her head she glared at her parents and huffed, " If you two keep slapping me like this wouldn't I be some a stupid child before even going to the academy."

  " You brat, you are still saying these words——" Zhu Qian chased after his daughter who hurriedly ran out of the room where their family lived and she even took Lang Hui with her.

  Listening to her son's gleeful laughter, Lang's lips also curved up as she hugged Zhu Qian by his shoulder and asked while pointing at the wheelchair, " What's that thing, I have never seen that before."

  Zhu Qian slapped her hand off his shoulder and flatly answered, " Another unique innovation from Sister Dong, she just turned up with that thing called wheelchair in her hands, though it can not replace Hui Hui's legs, it's better than him staying inside the house."

  Lang sighed, she was really indebted to Yu Dong and her husbands. " It looks like sister Dong treated you three really well when I wasn't here?"

  " That she did," Zhu Qian noticed that his wife was peering out of the window most probably wanting to thank Yu Dong again, he smiled and slapped his wife's arm and jokingly said, " Don't look for sister Dong so longingly, her husbands will get jealous."

  Immediately, Lang's face flushed as she gasped, " What are you talking about? From where do I look like I was looking for Sister Dong longingly? I just wanted to thank her."

  " Well, that's too bad isn't it… the Yu family have all gone to the grand opening of their Beverage shop and now that you are here, you should get ready too—— the carriage will be here any second and I don't want to be late. I heard there is a novel drink strawberry milk and shortcake that's going to be introduced in their shop, good thing you are —— now, I don't have to worry about taking out my savings."

  Lang: "…." Wasn't this mer crying a second ago? How come he was in a mood to eat all of a sudden—— Mers, their hearts were really hard to decipher.

  ——————————


  " You really didn't have to bring these gifts, Lady Song," said Yu Dong as she took the basket of exotic fruits from Song Yixu who was inspecting the interior and layout of her shop with a scrutinising gaze.

  " Fascinating, I have never seen a place like this," said Song Yixu as she finished inspecting the interior of the shop. " All the places that sell alcohol have that rowdy touch to it. But somehow you have made this place of your look so classy and chic, though everyone will be rushing to copy yours, I don't think they will ever be able to outdo you, Yu Dong. I have to say, I am surprised—— I never took you as someone who had an eye for fashion."

  Yu Dong didn't say anything instead she just laughed. What she did was nothing unique, she just went with her heart's desires and built the remodelling design of this shop, she wanted something chic, that will be different when compared to the other shops that were always full of ruckus. She never thought that her shop would turn this way, it wasn't just classy but also had a mysterious touch to it.

  Maybe that's why all the customers that came to check it out was liking it so much.

  As she looked around the bar that was almost filled, the weight on her shoulders finally lifted. When she came up with the idea of asking some pretty mers to stand outside with a free sample of their wines, she didn't think that it will work this well, in fact, she thought that the women might create a ruckus outside, but she seemed to have underestimated the power of those mers that were specially trained by Xiao Bai.

  Not only did they know how to refuse the advances of the women but they also knew how to deal with those who wanted to take advantage of them and since they were no longer in a tavern where they have to please everyone. The mers were allowed to deal with those women however they wanted, which was why no women dared to cause a ruckus.

  Yu Dong nodded as she glanced around —— Xiao Bai, taking his offer was in the end the right choice.

  ——-

  Little theatre:

  Xiao Bai: Now take my hand as well!'

  The four husbands with a chopping knife in their hands: do you want to die?

  —————-

  A/n: I know it's the end of the month and it's hard on all of you—— so I won't ask for much but please do send me some power stone and a few gifts, even one per reader is enough! Hehehe.
