“Alright, Yangyi. Don’t bring your dad to tears too.”

Gong Cheng smiled and stroked Xu Yangyi’s head with a touch of tenderness at the corners of his mouth.

Xu Yangyi wiped his tears, but suddenly raised his hand and gave Gong Cheng a slap.

Xu Jing was shocked and his eyes widened in disbelief, “Yang… Yangyi.”

But Gong Cheng, who had been slapped, looked at Xu Yangyi with a smile as if he knew it would happen.

“I slap you for my dad.” Whimpering, Xu Yangyi tried hard to hold back his tears.

Gong Cheng was not angry, but he smiled, “Eh, I know.”

‘I’m sorry, Yangyi, but I was just trying to protect you and your dad, and I didn’t think things would turn out this way.’

Xu Jing’s eyes suddenly darkened and the feeling in his heart heated up.

Gong Cheng took Xu Jing gently into his arms to keep him from crying.

Ever since Xu Jing had found out his identity, he had been depressed all day. Gong Cheng was so worried that he had moved here because he knew Xu Yangyi was here.

“I’m sorry.” Gong Cheng apologized.

This time it was Xu Jing’s turn to sniffle, “Why are you apologizing? It’s not your fault either.”

Gong Cheng didn’t answer him. He had hidden the truth at first, so it was all his fault.

“Don’t think I’ll forgive you just because you’re pleasing my dad now. You hid it from my dad and you didn’t even tell me either.”

Perhaps Xu Yangyi was complaining that Gong Cheng had told Xu Nuannuan about this instead of him. It was clear that he was the man of the family besides his dad, so he should have taken charge of this instead of his sister.

“My sister doesn’t want you to know the truth, so…”

Gong Cheng did not continue, because he knew that Xu Yangyi knew what was behind it.

‘His sister?’ This was the time when Xu Yangyi realized the relationship between his mother and Gong Cheng. It turned out that Gong Cheng was actually his uncle.

“Xu Nuannuan…” Xu Yangyi suddenly shouted at Xu Nuannuan.

Xu Nuannuan was also prepared for a slap or something like that, as he tricked Xu Yangyi together with Gong Cheng.

But instead of slapping her, Xu Yangyi threw himself into her arms and suddenly burst into tears again.

Although Xu Yangyi didn’t know what happened back then, today he was so sad. He must have been in the same mood as Xu Nuannuan and Gong Cheng. They suffered in silence in order to let Xu Yangyi and Xu Jing live without pain.

“Hmph! Don’t think I will forgive you easily!”

He cried and scolded Xu Nuannuan, but the fact that he had done so meant that he was no longer angry.

‘Yangyi, I’m sorry.’

Xu Nuannuan apologized in her heart. She almost forced Xu Yangyi to leave He Jingyan and forced him to do something he didn’t like.

He Jingyan walked towards them and bowed his head towards Xu Jing before taking Xu Yangyi out of Xu Nuannuan’s arms and putting him into his own embrace.

Xu Yangyi didn’t need to look and he knew it was He Jingyan, hugging him around the waist and crying, burying his face into his chest.

“Okay, wife. Let’s not cry anymore.” He kissed the top of Xu Yangyi’s head to comfort him.

Xu Yangyi rubbed against He Jingyan’s pyjamas and said irritably, “You think I want to cry? My tears won’t stop by themselves! I’m not crying at all!” His voice was somewhat cute.

“Eh, you are right. Tears won’t understand your words.” He Jingyan said as he patted Xu Yangyi on the back, dotingly caressing him.

Seeing that He Jingyan loved Xu Yangyi so much, Gong Cheng was somewhat relieved. At that time, he was afraid that he had taken Xu Yangyi captive and made He Jingyan and Xu Yangyi have problems with their relationship.

“Yangyi has been spoiled by me since he was young, so please treat him with more love, Colonel He.” Xu Jing said with his tear-stained eyes as he smiled and entrusted Xu Yangyi to He Jingyan for the first time.

“I will.” He Jingyan smiled back, full of affection.
