Chapter 307 Not welcomed here
“Hello,” Ai looked up and calmly greeted Jin as if she had never slapped him in Shanghai.
Jin had no clue how to answer her.
Nana cleared her throat. “Sit down, Jin.”
He remained unmoved.
Nian smiled. “The food is getting cold, Jin. I don’t like eating cold food.”
With Nian’s looming threat, he silently took his seat while cursing the hell out of Liu Hai. After how Jin had once declared his ‘interest’ in Ai, the atmosphere was a little odd at the table. But not for a long time though.
Liu Chunhua glared at her husband. “Why didn’t you bring Jun too?”
“Hey! Ai was all alone,” Liu Hai defended himself.
Ai smiled. “He is at the Chen villa today.”
“Oh! I see,” she nodded. “And why aren’t you eating anything?” She pouted. “You have hardly touched the food.”
Liu Hai gravely said, “I think she needs more egg rolls.”
That immediately triggered Nana. “I will make some more.”
“No, no!” Ai hastily stopped her. “I am actually a little full.”
Jian gasped. “Preposterous! How can anybody’s stomach get full? Is that even possible?”
Her mouth twitched. “I already had breakfast. Jun made it as usual so…”
“Oooooooo~~” Liu Hai and the twins whistled teasingly. “That reminds us…”
They put their chopsticks on the table and giggled. “How is it living together with Jun? All alooooooone under one roof~”
“Shameless…” Nuo muttered.
“Do you work together?”
“Do you cook together?”
“Or is your whole day consumed in doing mushy mushy stuff in the bedroom~”
Nana gritted her teeth. “Shameless!” She threw an accusing look at Jinhai. “It’s all your genes.”
Jinhai, who was just silently eating his food, looked at her blankly.
I didn’t even speak. Why did I get dragged into this?
Ai looked at the trio and concluded that the trio were the male version of gossiping auntys. “All of the above.”
“Ooooooooo!!!” Their excitement had no bounds.
Liu Hai asked with a sparkled gaze, “Are you using protection? If not, then can I expect a great-grandchild?” They were more interested in digging deeper about the third answer.
“Hai!”
“Dad!” Nana gasped in horror. “It’s too personal…”
“What? Don’t you want a grandchild too?”
Nana imagined holding her grandchild, and flowers blossomed around her head. “Th-that…well…”
Ai choked on the water she was drinking.
“Grandpa!” Nuo scolded him. “Let her eat her food in peace.”
He grumbled. “Fine. I will grill about my great-grandchild later…Anyway! I heard that Jun met your parents. Did they agree to your relationship?” He probed.
Ai beamed. “Yes. They like Jun a lot.”
Nana clapped her hands once. “That’s wonderful.”
Liu Hai brightened. “Great! I would love to meet your parents one day~”
The twins wondered if they would be grilled by Ai’s version 1.0.
We don’t feel like meeting Aunty…
Ai thought about Zhou Yichen and stared at Liu Hai and the twins. She compared the four of them together. “I think you my Dad and you would bond really well.”
“Hohoho! That’s obvious.”
She then threw a consoling look at Jinhai. “I think you won’t.”
“…”
Nuo finally burst out with her grievance. “Okay, okay enough about their relationship. I want to know more about your work!” She sheepishly grinned. “I read your books, you know. And of course your short story too! And I loved it! So, I want to know if you have already started to write the next volume?”
She smiled. “I will start today. I was going to jot down a few ideas in the library.”
“Will you let me take a look at your draft?” Nuo squeezed her way for spoilers.
Nian sneered. “Shameless.”
“Shut up. You worry more about your sinking love story,” she frowned.
This time, Nian was not a sad Romeo. “Hah! Those sinking days are far behind me! I have finally scored a date with my Xing Bi~”
Ai gave him a suspicious look. “Are you possibly mistaking another woman as Xing Bi?”
Jian choked with laughter. “Damn Nian, you are so pitiful.”
“I can never mistake another woman as my Xing Bi!” Nian glared at them. “We will really go on a date soon~”
“When did this happen?” Ai asked.
“In Shanghai~ She offered to go on a date herself,” he proudly smirked.
She gave him another look and nodded. “It’s definitely someone else.”
“…”
“You can call Xing Bi and confirm it for yourself!” He gritted his teeth. “I am not lying!”
Nana sighed. “Okay, enough. Let her eat her breakfast, and then she can go see Jun’s room. Hehe, you would want to see his room, right?”
Ai’s expression perked up as if a child got the most delicious treat. “Can I?”
“Of course, dear.”
Jian giggled. “His room will become your room one day anyway.”
The chopsticks in Jin’s hand almost got crushed.
Liu Hai was displeased. “What is there to see in that brat’s room anyway? It’s boring. Ai, why don’t you come to Grandpa’s room?” He asked with anticipation. “Grandpa has many fun things to show you~”
Nian sneered. “You are creepy, Grandpa.”
“Shut up!”
Nian glanced at Jin. “Jin, why don’t you take Ai to Jun’s room?”
Silence.
Jin smiled. “I am busy today. I got to pack stuff for donation too. Our house is not a maze. She can find her way herself,” he didn’t remain seated a second longer and left, throwing a mocking look at Ai.
Nana sighed.
“That insolent brat!” Liu Hai harrumphed. “Talking to my cute granddaughter-in-law like that…”
Ai didn’t mind. “It’s okay. Jun told me about today’s donation day too. Everybody must be busy. I will take a quick look at his room and leave.”
But on her way along the corridor, she totally lost her way.
“…”
Which one was Jun’s room again…? Was it the second or third one?
She thought of checking both of them and stepped into the second room first. The decor of this room was like Jun’s condo. Simple, minimalist and appealing.
This must be Jun’s room-
“What are you doing here?” A cold voice snapped at her. “You are not welcomed here. Get out.”
She recognized Jin’s voice and turned her head to meet his inhospitable black eyes.
