79 I'sm not hungry

Even if Little Melon was ignoring them, he can still hear them.

Xia Meilin and Lu Xian Yu turned to Little Melon after hearing his words.

Little Melon was looking at them with a blank face. He was acting more like his father whenever he was showing this face to others.

Lu Xian Yu blinked a few times. Did he like Li Bingbing? Now that he thought of it, what Little Melon said actually made sense. He grinned at the little boy. "Yeah, I like her!"

A grin appeared on Little Melon's face when he heard what he said. "Mello likes sister Bingbing too! Sister Bingbing is so pretty!"

Little Melon has never met Li Bingbing in person yet but he has met her through the video calls that his mother made whenever they were still in London.

"But momma is the prettiest!" Little Melon quickly added before he turned to his mother with a cute smile on his face, earning brownie points from his mother.

Xia Meilin chuckled. "Thank you, baby."

Lu Xian Yu laughed lightly before he stood up. "I'll teach you how to win a woman's heart once I come back, little Mello."

Little Melon nodded happily, "Okay! Come back soon, uncle!"

He looked at Xia Meilin. "Sister, I'll take my leave now."

"Don't ever come back. I don't want you to ruin my innocent son." Xia Meilin said with a glare.

Lu Xian Yu pouted, "I'm just going to help him be a man."

Little Melon's eyes sparkled. "Mello wants to be a man!"

"See?" Lu Xian Yu grinned. "He'll grow up just to be like his uncle!"

Little Melon quickly shook his head. "Mello wants to grow up like dada!"

"If you want to give lessons to a kid, go get yourself one. Don't involve my son." Xia Meilin crossed her arms and turned away from him.

Lu Xian Yu sulked, "You're being cold to me, sis."

"You're a bad influence for my son so that can't be helped." She chuckled, she then turned to Little Melon. "Don't listen to whatever your uncle Xian Yu says, okay? Listen only to your mom and dad."

Little Melon nodded obediently. "Okay! Mellon will only listen to mama and dada!"

"I'm being bullied here so I'm going to take my leave now." He sulked.

"Oh yeah, don't forget to come to Xiao Gua's upcoming birthday, okay? Tell Bingbing about it for me."

Little Melon grinned happily at this, "Yes! Sister Bingbing and uncle Xian Yu should come!"

Lu Xian Yu ruffled Little Melon's hair and smiled, "How can I forget? I just told you that I prepared a special gift for you."

Little Melon pouted, "But it's not books so it won't be interested."

"It's better than books."

Little Melon's eyes sparkled, "Really?"

"Yes, I promise."

He expected that Xia Meilin wouldn't give him anything about Xia Sinian and Li Bingbing's relationship but still wanted to give it a try and thus, he still failed in gaining new information from her.

Meanwhile, Li Bingbing began her work in Xia Sinian's company and she was assigned in the Programming department.

Li Bingbing was waiting for opportunities to approach Xia Sinian but he never showed himself in front of her which frustrated her.

She had no reason to visit him in his office and because of that, she was not given a chance to see him.

When she got home that day, she went to the kitchen and saw Lu Xian Yu, placing the dinner he prepared for them on the table.

Ignoring the food, Li Bingbing went and hugged Lu Xian Yu close. She felt so depressed that day that she just wanted to hug someone and there was no one else other than Lu Xian Yu in her place.

Lu Xian Yu looked down at her, he was a bit surprised when Li Bingbing suddenly gave him a hug. "Is there something wrong?"

"No, nothing... I'm just so drained today. I'm trying to suck your energy right now." She buried her face on his chest.

He chuckled at how adorable she was. He wrapped his arms around her, hugging her back.

"You can suck something else other than my energy you know," said he with a playful smirk on his lips.

Li Bingbing raised her head and glared at him, she pinched his nipple hard.

"OWW! BINGBING!"

She let go of his nipple before she pushed him away. "I'm not hungry, I'm skipping dinner tonight."
