“Mommy, you are really good!” The young kid praised her and gave a thumbs-up.
Third Young Master Ye sat on the sofa with a black face, his delicate features covered in a dark cloud. He totally lost it when he thought of Louis, the sicko, having his eyes on Cheng Anya.
What should he do so that this sicko would not be interested in Cheng Anya?
Third Young Master Ye pondered deeply as his eyebrows rose and fell. Miss Cheng, who was sitting opposite him, observed him interestingly as though she was watching a silent film.
Ning Ning took out the dishes he had prepared and made three bowls of rice. It seemed as though his mommy and daddy were not interested in dinner. The young kid supported his chin with his tender hands and observed what his daddy was up to.
“Miss Cheng, you shall dress more conservatively from tomorrow onward!” Third Young Master Ye felt that it was a feasible idea. “A single color and plain working dress that is traditional, conservative, and properly old-school. Tie up your hair and wear a pair of glasses that have a thick black-frame. Do you hear me?” he looked up and said arrogantly.
The young kid broke out into laughter. Uh… would that even work?
“I did not hear anything!” Cheng Anya twitched expressionlessly.
She could not help but imagine herself being unable to get married in her thirties, and how she became mentally unsound and creepy-looking from the weariness due to matchmaking. She shuddered. Even if she were held at gunpoint, she would not do things that would damage her self-image.
“This is an order!” Third Young Master Ye insisted arrogantly. “I am your superior!” He enunciated clearly.
“As a competent secretary, like soldiers, you shall follow orders from your superior! That is your mandate!”
“Third Young Master Ye, could you be even more mentally unsound?” Cheng Anya really felt like clobbering him with her crutch. How could he make life so difficult for her? Besides, she usually dressed simply and without bells and whistles.
“Look at what you are wearing. You are a mother to a seven-year-old child and still acting young. It is little wonder that Louis has taken a fancy to you!” Third Young Master Ye’s jealousy had consumed him. Despite his cold face and stoic look, he was neurotic and distorted. It was quite scary.
Ning Ning smiled, knowing that his mommy was about to go ballistic.
Lo and behold, Cheng Anya pulled off her typical smile. “Third Young Master Ye, please get this straight. Mothers of seven-year-olds are typically in their thirties, but me, this mother of a seven-year-old, is merely twenty-four. What do you mean by acting all young? I am already youthful for a start, okay?”
Third Young Master Ye’s cell phone suddenly rang. His gaze sank and turned expressionless. “Anyway, just do as I say! I’ve started to take a liking to old virgins. Also, the entire secretariat will standardize their attire from tomorrow onward!”
He spoke into the phone and ended the call.
Ning Ning laughed until he was pounding the table. It was so hilarious! How could his daddy be so adorable?
He was laughing in such an exaggerated manner that earned Miss Cheng’s glare. The young kid did not laugh as loudly and walked over. He walked over and giggled next to Cheng Anya. “Mommy, I sympathize with you!”
It would be safe to hazard a guess that the ladies in the secretariat would go bananas tomorrow!
It was too sick!
“Don’t you find him very mentally unsound?”
“Not really, though! It’s quite adorable!” Ning Ning said. His daddy was so adorable to the point he could not help but worship him. To be jealous to the point of being so adorable was indeed hard to come by.
Cheng Anya went silent. Her son was indeed becoming even more biased.
“Your mind has been polluted to the point that you do not look like my child anymore!” Cheng Anya’s heart ached. Third Young Master Ye had polluted her good son into what kind of person?
“Mommy, honestly, you look… very youthful!” Ning Ning pinched his mommy’s face. She felt good to touch, and her skin was silky-smooth. She was not the typical baby face, but she seemed even younger than a baby face. Her pale skin made her look even younger.
“Think about it. When I am eighteen, Mommy would be thirty-five. If we walk together, people would mistake us for love birds rather than mother-and-son!” Ning Ning covered his mouth and laughed at what could possibly transpire. Some might even mistake it for a sister-brother romance!
Cheng Anya twitched silently. Did she really seem that young?
“You are overthinking. How is that even possible!”
“It is absolutely possible!” Ning Ning laughed and blinked wisely. “Mommy, hearsay has it that people who look young have the tendency to attract perverts. Look at you… The people whom you have crossed paths with are very… perverted!”
“You are calling me a pervert?” He felt his ears pinched and he screamed as he hugged his daddy whilst pleading for mercy. “Daddy, baby is wrong. You are the cutest, most adorable, and most invincible!”
Cheng Anya absolutely despised how her son buttered up but felt warm when she saw the father and son hug each other.
“Rascal!” Third Young Master Ye laughed. “Time for dinner, and we will get your mommy a suit after that. The older fashion it is, the better!”
Cheng Anya was absolutely at a loss for words.
His cell phone suddenly rang at this moment. Third Young Master Ye impatiently picked up the phone. “If you have something, could you clearly say it once and for all…”
He suddenly stopped speaking and his face turned dark when he heard peals of laughter. “Louis? What is it?”
“It seems that Third Young Master Ye is in a bad mood!”
“I’m sorry. I went out today to see a dog, and that pissed me off thoroughly. Now speak!” Third Young Master Ye was not the most polite as it was not the specified dealing time. Moreover, this guy was not related to him.
Louis was not angry and replied in an excessively gentle voice, “I would like to delay the deal!”
Third Young Master Ye’s gaze slightly focused for a moment as he suddenly felt a pressure on him. He gently sat on the sofa and laughed. “Louis, is flip-flopping the typical way you run your business?”
“Don’t be angry. It’s just a delay!” Louis laughed gently. “I realized that there are other things in City A that are much more worthy of my time than business. Hence, I intend to stay slightly longer. It’s not urgent, right?”
“Is it not urgent just because you say so? You are dealing on my turf, and do you know how much risk I have to shoulder? Let’s see whether I’ll scream urgent when the police have the docks surrounded!” Third Young Master Ye laughed coldly. “Or to put it differently, are you here to shoulder the risk?” He mocked.
“Oh, how much do you want?” Louis said bravely.
Third Young Master Ye naturally knew what else, apart from his business, was more worthy of his time. It was undoubtedly his interest in Cheng Anya. “I do not want anything. Let’s complete the deal at the specified time!”
“Aiyaya, the Third Young Master Ye who once pursued profits at any price is starting to deal cleanly! Ah, pigs are flying!” Louis laughed and ridiculed Third Young Master Ye hard.
“Whatever you say!” Third Young Master Ye said coldly and plainly.
“Third Young Master Ye, I call the shots in this, right?” Louis laughed gleefully as he enjoyed trolling them. “Let’s get into a competition for love!”
