Chapter 248 - From Enemies To Chummy Buddies?

Xinyi gently picked little Jin in her arms. He clutched onto her dress with his tiny fists as he grinned and buried his small head in her neck.

"Baaaaaaaaaaa…"

​​

Seeing his bubbly cheeks, Xinyi's heart melted.

Nana chuckled. "Jin is happy to meet you again."

"Baaaaaa baaaaaa…" Jin agreed.

Xinyi smiled.

"By the way, the bracelet looks beautiful on you. Liu Jinhai won in just one shot."

Hearing this, Jian and Nian's pitiful faces were full of grievances. "Listen to us, new mother! Dad has been doing nothing but spoiling Mom!"

Nian heavily pursed his lips. "We haven't been on a single ride until now!"

"All because Dad wants to be lovey-dovey with Mom," Jian complained. "We have all been to only couple-like places until now! What is the use of us kids going there?"

"We wanna go on rides!"

"But Dad is enjoying his date! What about us?" They sobbed. "We have been put to the job of babysitting Jin while Dad is busy impressing Mom!"

"I mean what is the need for it now? She is his wife and already got five kids together. She has already been impressed by him long back! Focus on the kids now. The KIDS!"

It had absolutely no effect on Jinhai no matter how much they complained. His cold expression didn't twitch in pity at all.

Nuo eagerly said to Siying. "Siying! The huge swing is good!"

Siying said, "I am going there too! The swing is so huge!"

"En!" She bobbed her head up and down.

Jian and Nian - "..."

"Hey, wait a minute! When did Nuo get onto the huge swing?"

Jun, who was quietly chomping on his cotton candy, dryly said, "When you were too busy complaining to Mom. Dad put her on the swing."

"!!!"

"But we didn't get a ride on it!"

They looked accusingly at their father. "Dad, why did you put Nuo and not us?"

Jinhai calmly said, "Because Nuo is my daughter."

Jian and Nian were speechless.

"We are your sons too!" They exclaimed.

"Right. Sons. Not daughters," he stopped at that.

"!!!"

This world is too cruel! Unfair! Unreasonable! Harsh! Such blatant partiality!

They glared at Jun. "Why didn't you tell us!?"

Jun sneered. "Why should I help the ones who are the cause of my misery by planning this stupid park trip and bringing me here? I enjoyed you missing the ride."

"..."

Nana shook her head. "Don't be so dramatic."

Xinyi laughed. 

So cute!

She ruffled the twins' heads and said, "Don't worry. We are taking Siying to the huge swing. Why don't you ride with him?"

Jian and Nian sparkled and looked at her as if she was a messiah. "New mother! You are the only one who cares about us! Please adopt us!" They wiped their eyes and hugged her legs.

Jinhai smiled. "I will be glad to send your bags to Han villa. Tell me. When should I do it?"

"Jinhai!" Nana hit him on the shoulder.

The twins glared at him.

Nana brightened. "That's a good idea! We can enjoy the trip together!"

Xinyi eagerly nodded. "En!"

Zhiyuan and Jinhai - "..."

Zhiyuan could see his romantic moments with Xinyi drowning away into nothingness. 

Where the women were now excited with more vigor to enjoy the trip, their husbands were dragging their feet behind in frustration.

Zhiyuan covered his face, feeling tired. "Ugh…"

Jinhai coldly said, "Why do you look so lethargic, Han Zhiyuan. I should be the one cursing my luck here."

Zhiyuan dangerously glowered at him. "Oh yeah? I feel like kicking you out of this park!"

He sneered. "You have some nerve to say that. I brought Nana along with my kids and I was barely getting any time with her and now your family has got added into that. Thank you for ruining my date."

Zhiyuan smiled. "You see, Liu Jinhai. I have a kid too and trust me, it's hell hard to find time for Xinyi. But be grateful. At least, your wife is not angry at you."

Jinhai raised his brow.

"Whereas things between Xinyi and I have been a little... tense," he cleared her throat. "She didn't even want to come on this trip. I had to shamelessly use my son to make her agree because she can never reject him. This trip was just an excuse to get closer to her but no! Now the whole Liu family is in the mix. Xinyi just wants a chance to run away from me and you have given her just that! Thank you so much!" He gritted his teeth in resentment.

"Why is she angry at you?" He asked.

Zhiyuan turned a little somber. "I have made some unforgivable mistakes that have hurt her a lot. I want to repent. I want to show how much I love her…" he stared at Xinyi's back.

Jinhai faintly smiled. "I see. It reminds me of my time when Nana was really mad at me too. I had made some unforgivable mistakes too."

Zhiyuan was a little surprised. "Really?"

"En. She had even left Liu villa to live at her parents' house. She was pregnant with twins at that time."

"I see…" He looked at Nana who was cheerfully laughing with everyone. "But in the end, she forgave you."

Jinhai chuckled. "She had to. I didn't leave her much choice. I chased after her so much that she had to give in to me."

Zhiyuan raised his brow. "You know. At one point, I thought that freeing Xinyi was the best choice to end all the suffering. I couldn't find any way to repent other than a divorce."

Jinhai smiled. "Good to see you changed your mind in time. The only way to get your wife's forgiveness and make things right is to be stubborn, shameless and have a thick skin. No matter what, you just don't let her go~"

Zhiyuan chuckled. "Yup, I know that now."

Nana and Xinyi turned and were taken aback to see their husbands actually laughing together instead of shooting lasers at each other.

They shared speechless glances.

When did they get so chummy?
