Chapter 633: He’s All Grown Up
"No one dares to snatch it." Yin Yang chuckled.
Xu Mumu waved her hand and stored all these treasures in the Treasure Vault. The only thing she kept was a ginseng, planning to take it back home just in case something happened. Having this ginseng for emergencies was quite handy.
In the afternoon, the Yin Family unexpectedly had visitors. After hearing from the butler who the visitors were, Xu Mumu’s mouth twitched. She silently looked at Yin Yang, letting him handle it himself.
"You go get rid of them." Xu Mumu said disdainfully.
"Okay, I’ll go." Yin Yang nodded. He definitely needed to give Yun Luo a proper warning; otherwise, her frequent little schemes were indeed annoying him.
Over there, seeing that only Yin Yang came over, Yun Luo’s mood immediately brightened.
"Brother Yin Yang." Yun Luo looked at Yin Yang expectantly; he was still so handsome.
"Shut up, I’m not your brother." Yin Yang frowned with disgust.
"Why are you like this, Yin Yang? I clearly like you so much. Why are you still scheming to marry me off to the Ma Family? Did Xu Mumu say something?" Yun Luo bit her lip, looking at Yin Yang.
"Mumu isn’t worried about you as much as you think. It was me who intervened, including this time. I thought the lesson was already enough, but who knew you’d still play these little tricks." Yin Yang sneered, not even having the intention to offer her tea. What kind of guest was Yun Luo to him?
Yun Luo’s face changed, looking at Yin Yang, and then she twisted her expression, "That’s right, it was me. Who asked Xu Mumu to snatch away all the men I loved for so long? If I can’t have them, I might as well destroy it all."
"Is that so? Then let’s see what happens. I remember your father is in poor health, right? Yun Ji hasn’t accomplished much, and the Yun Family’s main branch isn’t just your line." Yin Yang said, narrowing his eyes slightly as he looked at Yun Luo’s twisted expression. It seemed he hadn’t been tough enough.
"My brother has made great contributions to the family. The position of Family Head rightfully belongs to him. Your words are useless." Yun Luo stared hard at Yin Yang.
"Then let’s see. By the way, on the Ma Family side, Mrs. Ma has been urging you to have a child, right? Guess why, even though you frequently meet, there’s still no sign of pregnancy?" Yin Yang leaned close to Yun Luo’s ear and whispered, appearing intimate.
But Yin Yang’s words sent chills down Yun Luo’s spine; it had to be him. Yin Yang actually used such methods to harm her.
"Was it you?" Yun Luo stared at Yin Yang, now feeling only unfamiliarity and fear towards this man.
"Mm-hmm, I did it, and there’s more to come. I wonder if you can withstand my revenge." Yin Yang curled his lips, admiring Yun Luo’s fear of him. He was never a good person, and he wouldn’t just let go of how the Yun Family people harmed him previously.
"Escort the guest out," Yin Yang calmly instructed the butler and then left the main hall.
After sending Yun Luo away, Yin Yang leisurely stayed for a few days at the Yin Family before leaving with his people.
As for Yun Luo, her days became even harder after returning to the Ma Family.
During the days outside checking accounts, Xu Mumu lived more leisurely, taking Doudou to play everywhere at each stop, practically traveling all over the country.
By the time they returned, it was already the end of the year, and the weather had grown increasingly colder.
Upon returning home, everyone in the house was waiting for them. Although they frequently called home, the family still worried about them. Seeing them return safely, everyone was overjoyed.
Especially the two professors, who wouldn’t let go of Doudou when they held him.
"Doudou, do you still recognize great-grandfather?" Professor Jian was the first to snatch Doudou up into his arms.
"Of course, great-grandfather, I’ve missed you all." The little fellow’s voice was tender yet warmed their hearts.
"So good, we haven’t pampered you for nothing." Professor Jian was very pleased.
"Alright, it’s my turn to hold Doudou." Professor Song also wanted to hold him.
Xu Mumu watched them with a smile, then her gaze fell on her sister-in-law. Jiang Yuxiu’s belly was quite large now; she was nearly ready to give birth.
"Sister-in-law is about to give birth, right? I bought a lot of clothes and toys for the baby." Xu Mumu said with a bright smile.
"We have plenty at home." Jiang Yuxiu said helplessly. Speaking of this, Jiang Yuxiu was a bit stressed. Xu Minghui was now just like Yin Yang was before. When Doudou was about to be born, the family had already prepared clothes and toys for children several years older.
Xu Minghui, now wealthy himself, was lavish in his purchases. The house was filled with stuff children’s items that could be used.
Besides Xu Minghui, the old couple of the Xu Family and her in-laws were also being extravagant. Especially her mother-in-law, her taste was downright peculiar, preparing things quite unusual. Seeing her so enthusiastic made it hard for Jiang Yuxiu to stop her.
"I know, it’s just my way of expressing my love as an aunt." Xu Mumu said with a smile, having heard Jiang Yuxiu mention these things on calls.
"Alright then." Jiang Yuxiu’s mouth twitched.
"Sis, are you not noticing me?" Xu Minglei looked at his sister with some grievance. He rarely had a holiday, and had almost gone a year without seeing his sister. Now that she was back, she seemed to notice everyone but him.
"How could I not notice you? Not bad, you’ve grown quite a bit taller and stronger. How’s university life treating you?" Xu Mumu smiled, patting her brother’s shoulder. Xu Minglei had indeed grown taller and was filling out, looking increasingly like a young adult.
"It’s good, just that they manage things pretty strictly inside." Speaking of school, the young man’s eyes glowed. He loved everything about it.
"As long as you can stick with it, I was worried you wouldn’t be able to. The training inside is tough, isn’t it?" Xu Mumu patted Xu Minglei’s shoulder. He was her brother, her pride.
"I can adapt; our mentor is quite impressed with me and often gives us extra training."
"What are your plans next?" Xu Mumu looked at her brother.
"I’ve already agreed with Tiedan that we will join the army after graduation. Next year, we can graduate early." The young man proudly puffed out his chest. To him, his sister was his pride, and he wanted to become her pillar.
"Having your own plan is good. Our Minglei is all grown up now." Xu Mumu said with emotion.
"Sister." Xu Minglei blushed, feeling embarrassed that his sister always viewed him as a child.
"So, have you considered dating someone in university? University is like a small society. Since you’ve entered university, to me, you’re an adult now, free to date someone." Xu Mumu teased.
