Chapter 587 - Babysitters

Cloe didn't know how she ended up here. All she knew was that it was her boyfriend who got her into this. Yes, today, Cloe Jones, the most capable person on Raelle Xiang's team was actually a babysitter. Was that some kind of a joke? No, it was not! She really became a babysitter today and it was all her boyfriend's fault.

Since last night she knew that Cui Xukun had to babysit his niece and nephew today. And she didn't think much about it until in the morning, Cui Xukun started coaxing her into going with her. And guess what? She actually fell for his puppy eyes. How was she supposed to refuse him when he looked at her with those eyes?

Her iron heart had finally blossomed after years and now it was all soft and mushy for this guy who easily coaxed her into becoming a babysitter.

Cloe didn't have a problem with it per se but the problem was that she couldn't understand how she actually agreed to Cui Xukun so easily? Wasn't she already a decisive person after being with Raelle for so long? How did she still fall for a guy to the point of forgetting east and west just because he blinked at her and smiled? 

"What a failure you are," Cloe knocked on her head. 

If Raelle knew she actually was so easily moved, she'd be disdainful to keep an assistant like her around her. But then Cloe thought of how her boss didn't even know what disdain was, so she relaxed. It didn't matter. 

Cloe came to Soren's villa with Cui Xukun. The same place she had dinner with Raelle and Hyson the last time. The only difference was that today, Soren wasn't home. He went out with his wife on a date leaving his kids to his brother-in-law.

"Uncle!" As soon as they stepped inside the house, two excited figures jumped on Cui Xukun hugged his legs tightly. 

Cui Xukun was obviously happy to see his niece and nephew as he crouched down and hugged them both, "Oh, what's on your face, Sammy?"

Little Sammy puffed up his chest and announced, "Today, I'm a police officer."

Little Xena held up her hand and said, "And I'm the forensic doctor!"

Little Sammy held up his toy gun to show him and told Cui Xukun, "Uncle, you're gonna be the murder victim today. You're shot by evil people."

"Oh, I'm dying?" asked Cui Xukun feigning panic and fear.

Little Xena caressed Cui Xukun's face saying, "Uncle Kun, don't worry. Xena will find out who killed you. I won't let the criminal escape."

Cui Xukun played along with their antics and sprawled down on the ground saying, "Okay, I'm shot!"

Little Xena tsked at him and shook her head like an adult, "Uncle Kun, there is no blood. How can your acting be so bad?"

Cloe placed her hand over her mouth to hide her laughter. But she was really amused to see how Cui Xukun was being disdained by such a cute kid. 

"Oho! I'm not as smart as our Xena," said Cui Xukun as he pinched his niece's chubby cheek. "So what should we do about the blood?"

"Simple, we use ketchup," said Sammy and ran to the kitchen to get the ketchup. He came back and was about to drop it on Cui Xukun's chest when his sister held him back.

"Bro, you can't do that. If you spoiled another expensive shirt of Uncle Kun, mom will spank us both!"

Little Sammy was instantly reminded of his mother and didn't dare to act again. Cui Xukun shook his head and said, "Forget it. Just do what you have to do. Why think about that tyrant sister of mine? I won't tell her that my shirt is spoiled. And if she found out anything, I'll just let her spank me instead."

The twins giggled at his words. "Uncle, mom will really spank you."

Cui Xukun nodded his head, "I know. I grew up with her. She had always loved spanking me when I did something wrong. I'm old now and quite thick-skinned as well. Her spanking doesn't even hurt anymore."

"I didn't know you had such interest, Xukun," commented Cloe.

Cui Xukun stiffened when he realized that he had completely forgotten his girlfriend was here. She had been so quiet that he really forgot he brought her here. What the hell?! Why was he talking so much nonsense?

He smiled sheepishly at her and said, "It isn't as it sounds."

"Oh?" Cloe raised her brows in amusement. "If you say so."

The twins also only found Cloe now and looked at her curiously. Little Sammy thought of something and said, "Uncle, isn't this the pretty sister because of whom you cried for hours?"

Cui Xukun covered his nephew's mouth and pulled him back, "Sammy, don't talk nonsense."

"You cried?" asked Cloe.

Little Xena seemed to also remember as she shared, "Yes, yes, Uncle did cry. He even told bro that if he stayed single for life because of him, he won't let my bro go."

"My dear babies, can you stop it already?" Cui Xukun was having a mental breakdown. Just why did he think of bringing Cloe here with him? Oh, right! He wanted to spend more time with her since they had confirmed their relationship and he didn't want to part with her so soon. Who knew he'd get himself into this?

Cloe looked at Cui Xukun's expressions and felt like laughing out loud. He looked so embarrassed right now. Poor him! Cloe placed her hand on his head and said, "Well, Kun, stop being sulky because of kids. I know you've had your eyes set on me for a long time now. Isn't it enough that I've decided to look back at you now."

Cui Xukun was stunned when he heard her comment and looked up at her. She winked at him making his heart thump loudly against his chest. Oh, she was trapping him.. But wait! He was already trapped.
