Chapter 22 - A Kick in the Butt

Chapter 22 A Kick in the Butt

Chubs was no longer interested in the snacks in his hand. He gradually approached Lin Xi.

Lin Xi was about to give Xiao Yun, Zhang Lexuan, and Chubs some candy, but when she saw Chubs coming closer, she thought Chubs couldn’t wait any longer, so she pulled out a piece of candy from her chubby little hand and gave it to him first.

But Chubs pushed the candy back to Lin Xi and said, “Lin Xi, give me a kiss. I’ll buy you candy tomorrow.” When Xiao Yun heard this, the smile on his face instantly disappeared and he gave Chubs a kick on the butt.

Chubs was caught off guard by the kick as he hugged his butt and jumped. When Lin Xi saw Chubs acting like this, she couldn’t stop giggling.

Xiao Yun: “Don’t get any ideas about Xi Xi.”

Chubs looked aggrieved and asked, “Why Brother Xiao, Xi Xi also calls me Brother, why can she kiss you but not me?”

Xiao Yun gave him a cold glance and Chubs was instantly terrified. “Alright, if you don’t want her to kiss me then don’t.”

Zhang Lexuan: “I really suggest that you eat more walnuts to nourish your brain.”

“What do you mean?” asked Chubs as he scratched his head.

Then it finally dawned on him. “Okay, you are basically scolding me for not thinking straight.”

Zhang Lexuan looked at Chubs without saying anything else.

Xiao Yun’s possessiveness towards Lin Xi was so strong. It was obvious that he did not treat Lin Xi simply as a sister.

However, Chubs had yet to understand this and thus, he had unknowingly courted death by asking Lin Xi to kiss him. Zhang Lexuan felt that just kicking him was not good enough.

Xiao Yun did not care about the bickering Chubs and Zhang Lexuan. Instead, he walked up to Lin Xi and asked, “Xi Xi, you must remember that apart from Dad, Mom, and Big Brother Xiao Yun, you are not allowed to kiss anyone else.”

“Why?” asked Lin Xi as she blinked innocently.

“Because Dad and Mom are the people Xi Xi loves the most. Big Brother Xiao Yun is the person Xi Xi is going to marry in the future. If Xi Xi were to let someone else kiss her or if you were to kiss someone else, how will she be Big Brother Xiao Yun’s bride?” Xiao Yun ended his sentence pitifully.

And sure enough, when Lin Xi heard this, she immediately comforted him. “Xi Xi won’t kiss anyone in the future except for Dad, Mom, and Big Brother Xiao Yun, Xi Xi and won’t let anyone kiss Xi Xi either.”

Afraid that he still wouldn’t believe her, she stretched out her little finger and locked it with Xiao Yun’s.

Xiao Yun willingly wrapped his pinkie around hers. Then, Lin Xi started to speak with much conviction. “I promise to always keep my word and if I go back on it, I will turn into an ugly frog.” Chubs looked at the two’s actions and thought, ‘When did Brother Xiao become so childish?’ However, he did not dare to say it, afraid that Xiao Yun would give him another kick.

The morning passed very quickly, and soon it was noon. Li Ping came over to take the two home for lunch, then coaxed them to take an afternoon nap right after their meal before sending them back to the kindergarten.

When Xiao Yun and Lin Xi had gone to kindergarten earlier that day, the sun was still shining brightly. It had been a sunny day.

However, before Li Ping reached home after sending them off after lunch, the sky had turned dark and depressing.

Li Ping quickened her pace and returned home. Soon, she took two umbrellas and went out again.

In less than ten minutes, bean-sized raindrops fell.

At this time, the chubby little boy in the kindergarten sighed heavily.

“Brother Xiao, how can you go home after school when the rain is so heavy outside?” asked the chubby little boy while looking at the weather outside.

Xiao Yun merely raised his eyebrows and looked out of the window. Then, he turned around and said unhurriedly, “There’s still quite a long time until then. It’s not a big problem. Perhaps it will stop when school

ends.”

Chubs looked outside, scratched his head, and said, “Maybe.”

However, Xiao Yun was wrong. The rain continued to fall until the end of school.

Xiao Yun and Chubs went to Lin Xi’s classroom to pick the little girl up.

Zhang Lexuan also walked over to join the three of them. The group of four now stood at the door and watched the rain outside.

The teacher were busy organizing the children, ensuring only parents and the right guardians picked the little ones up.

“Brother Xiao Yun, what should we do? How can we go home in such heavy rain?” said Lin Xi worriedly.

“Don’t worry, don’t worry. My dad will come to pick us up today.” Xiao Yun comforted Lin

Xi.

At this time, a bolt of lightning appeared in the sky, followed by the sound of thunder.

Lin Xi shrank back and hid behind Xiao Yun. Obviously, she was still afraid of thunder.

Xiao Yun took off his coat and put it over Lin Xi’s head. Then, he held her hand to give her a sense of security.

“My dad might be a little late in such heavy rain. Let’s wait and see if the rain will stop,” said Xiao Yun as he kept comforting her.

“Why don’t we not go back for now? We can play in school for a while and wait for the rain to stop before we go out,” said Chubs excitedly.

Xiao Yun: “Nothing can stop you from playing.”

Chubs scratched his head in embarrassment and chuckled.

There was nothing Xiao Yun could do to Chubs. This little chubby kid was happy every day and hardly worried about anything too much.

Zhang Lexuan looked at the school gate, then looked up at the dark clouds in the sky, and said, “My car is at the gate. Come with me, I’ll send you guys back.”

“Let’s wait and see.” Xiao Yun nodded and didn’t refuse. If the rain didn’t stop, he would have to trouble Zhang Lexuan’s driver.

“Wow, I didn’t expect Little Xuan to have a drive,” said Chubs, surprised.

Zhang Lexuan: “Yup. Would you like to have the honor of sending your young master home later?”

“Of course.” Chubs nodded repeatedly.

The two of them continued bantering.

Just then, Xiao Yun saw a familiar-looking woman walking over from the line of parents.

The woman looked to be about twenty-six or twenty-seven years old and had a very gentle appearance.

“Why is she here?”

When he saw the person’s full appearance, Xiao Yun recognized that this person was Wang Li, who had almost become his stepmother in his previous life. He couldn’t help but sigh.

“Is Xiao Yun here? I’m here to pick Xiao Yun up,” said Wang Li as she walked to the teacher.

Since Wang Li had never seen Xiao Yun before, she had to ask.

“Brother Xiao Yun, she seems to be looking for you,” said Lin Xi as she tugged at Xiao Yun’s clothes.

Xiao Yun nodded. “Yep.”

At this time, the teacher shouted Xiao Yun’s name out loud. Xiao Yun walked up to them and said, “I’m here.”

“This is Xiao Yun,” said the teacher.

“I’m Xiao Yun. May I know who you are?” asked Xiao Yun, pretending to be clueless.

Wang Li looked at Xiao Yun from head to toe, and confirmed that he was wearing the same clothes as Xiao He described. She could also see that Xiao Yun’s facial features were very similar to Xiao He’s.
