Chapter 873 - Xu Youning Won't Take the Blame

Shen Yuechuan suddenly had a sense of crisis.

If it was made public that he was at a loss to reply to a four-year-old child, how could he establish himself at the negotiating table in the future?

He had to save his face!

Shen Yuechuan stared at Mumu, and as adults usually did, he said seriously, “Since you are a good baby, you should listen to me in the future, understand?”

Mumu took a few steps back and fell into Xiao Yunyun’s arms, shaking his head firmly and saying, “No!”

How dare this little boy refuse him?

It was the first time that Shen Yuechuan had been challenged by a child. He was startled and almost recovered from his illness. He narrowed his eyes and stared at Mumu. “Why?”

Mumu looked innocent and said as if it had nothing to do with him, “Auntie Youning asked me to listen to Sister Yunyun, and I promised her, but she didn’t ask me to listen to you!”

In other words, it was not that he didn’t listen to Shen Yuechuan, but that Xu Youning felt that he didn’t have to listen to Shen Yuechuan.

As a negotiation expert, Shen Yuechuan certainly knew that the little boy was passing the buck!

Tut-tut, he wouldn’t let Xu Youning take the blame!

Shen Yuechuan directly grabbed Mumu, looked at him, and said word by word, “Sister Yunyun is engaged to me, so Sister Yunyun is me, and I am Sister Yunyun! Auntie Youning asked you to listen to her, which means she asked you to listen to me. Do you understand?”

He believed that his words would make Mumu feel dizzy by beating around the bush!

Mumu tilted his head and said, “Liar!”

Shen Yuechuan was so angry that he almost cocked his eyebrows. “Say it again!”

Mumu put his hands on the hips and said reasonably, “You and Sister Yunyun are two different people. You have different bodies. How can you be Sister Yunyun? You are a man!”

“…”

Only then did Shen Yuechuan realize that his strategy was completely wrong. This little boy would think in a straightforward way, so he couldn’t make him feel dizzy by beating around the bush.

However, under no circumstances could the fact that he couldn’t deal with a little boy be made public!

Seeing this scene, Xiao Yunyun burst into laughter. She patted Shen Yuechuan on the shoulder and made a comforting eye gesture. It was not shameful to lose to Mumu.

Shen Yuechuan turned his head and looked away, pretending that he didn’t need to be comforted.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Shen Yuechuan said to the door, “Come in.”

Song Jiqing pushed the door open, walked in, and first saw Mumu.

Mumu also recognized Song Jiqing and showed a nice and lovely smile. “Doctor!”

“Good morning.” Song Jiqing came in and rubbed the little boy’s hair. “Why are you here?”

Mumu seriously explained, “Auntie Youning has something to do, so she asked me to stay with Sister Yunyun today. I’ll go back in the afternoon.”

“Well, be nice here. I have to get busy now.” Song Jiqing motioned for Shen Yuechuan to follow him. “It’s time to do a checkup.”

Shen Yuechuan just needed to take a breath. He nodded and left the ward with Song Jiqing.

The ward was at a distance from the examination room.

On the way, Song Jiqing suddenly remembered something. He reached into the pocket of his coat to reach for something and took out a lollipop. “I found it.”

Shen Yuechuan laughed and teased, “Doctor Song, how old are you? Why are you still carrying a lollipop with you?”

“I have lost interest in lollipops for a long time.” Song Jiqing rotated the lollipop in his hand and said, “Mumu gave it to me the last time we met.”

“Oh.” Shen Yuechuan said in a sarcastic tone, “The little guy is very nice to you.”

“I think he is nicer to you.” Song Jiqing said with a smile, “He gave me the lollipop and asked me to cure your illness. He also told me that as long as you got better, he could give me all his lollipops at home.”

Shen Yuechuan was stunned, and it took him a long time to come to his senses.

He took the lollipop and looked at it carefully for a moment, but finally, he did not mention Mumu. He just asked Song Jiqing, “Do you like lollipops? I can give you all the lollipops in the world.”

Song Jiqing glanced at Shen Yuechuan and said in an understanding tone, “It’s not shameful to be moved by a four-year-old child. You don’t have to hide it.”

“I…” Shen Yuechuan was silent for a moment before saying, “He is Kang Ruicheng’s son. If I am moved by him now, I will be soft-hearted to him in the future. Do you know the consequences?”

Song Jiqing couldn’t keep up with Shen Yuechuan’s thoughts for a while.

Shen Yuechuan continued, “If I’m soft-hearted to the enemy, it may kill Boyan and Mu Qi.”

Mumu was innocent, but Shen Yuechuan’s words made sense.

The little boy’s family background could not be changed after all. He was at loggerheads with Shen Yuechuan and Mu Sijue.

It seemed hard to tell who was right or wrong.

Song Jiqing really didn’t know what to say, so he had to change the subject. “Let’s go to the neurology department for the first examination now.”

When Shen Yuechuan was doing the checkup, there were only Mumu and Xiao Yunyun in the large suite.

Ever since Shen Yuechuan left the ward, Mumu had been looking in the direction of the door.

Xiao Yunyun was confused. “Mumu, what are you looking at?”

Mumu then turned around and asked, “Sister Yunyun, is Uncle Yuechuan still sick?”

Xiao Yunyun had long accepted the fact that Shen Yuechuan was sick, so she didn’t feel sad when Mumu suddenly mentioned it. She just found the little boy funny and asked, “Didn’t you just argue with Uncle Yuechuan? Why are you still concerned about his sickness?”

Mumu blinked his eyes and said, “I hope Uncle Yuechuan will get better.”

Even a four-year-old child wanted Shen Yuechuan to get better…

Xiao Yunyun suddenly felt distressed. She touched Mumu’s head and said, “Uncle Yuechuan will get better soon!”

Mumu nodded. When he looked at Xiao Yunyun again, he found that her eyes were somewhat red.

But he didn’t say anything and acted as if he hadn’t seen it. He took Xiao Yunyun’s hand and said, “Sister Yunyun, how about we play games?”

Xiao Yunyun knew that Mumu must have noticed that her eyes were red, but he decided to protect her self-esteem.

This little boy was more thoughtful and sensible than anyone could imagine.

Xiao Yunyun held back her tears and nodded. “Okay, what do you want to play?”

Mumu tilted his head and said, “Let me see which games have been installed on your iPad! Well, I can play a lot of games. I’m super awesome!”

“What a coincidence!” Xiao Yunyun imitated Mumu and said, “I’m super awesome too.”

Mumu put his hands on the hips to show that he was not convinced. He opened a game and played it with Xiao Yunyun. They had fun playing the game and fighting with each other.

When Shen Yuechuan came back after the checkup and opened the door, he heard the game sounds and their laughter.

Xiao Yunyun’s laughter stood out. Even when she was with him, Xiao Yunyun might not laugh so happily.

What kind of magic did this kid from the Kang family have?

Mumu was facing the door, so he saw Shen Yuechuan first.

After all, he was a child. After playing a few rounds of the game with Xiao Yunyun, Mumu had already forgotten the “displeasure” between him and Shen Yuechuan just now. He put down the iPad and ran over. “Uncle Yuechuan, have you finished the checkup? Are you okay now?”

“Hey, Mumu!” Xiao Yunyun shouted. “This round is not over yet. Where are you running?”

She looked at Mumu’s figure and found that Shen Yuechuan was back. “Eh? Why did you finish the checkup so soon today?”

Shen Yuechuan squatted down, looked at Mumu, and answered his question first. “I have to wait for the results, and then I’ll know if I’m okay.”

In fact, he didn’t have to wait. He knew that he hadn’t recovered yet.

However, why did he have to tell a child the cruel truth?

Mumu was a little disappointed and said, “Okay, I’ll ask when you get the results!”

Shen Yuechuan answered with a “yep”, took Mumu behind him, and looked at Xiao Yunyun.

At some point, a look of danger showed up in his eyes. “Yunyun, how long have you been playing games?”

Xiao Yunyun looked up at the clock on the wall and said in surprise, “More than two hours! Yah, time always flies when I’m with Mumu!”

More danger was ignited at the bottom of Shen Yuechuan’s eyes, and then something exploded.

He narrowed his eyes and asked, “Do you mean that time crawls when you’re with me?”

Xiao Yunyun was stunned, and she slowly realized that she had angered Shen Yuechuan.

She tried to muddle through and said with a smile, “Have you ever heard of a saying that happy times are always particularly long?”

“That’s not what I’ve heard.” Shen Yuechuan smiled and corrected Xiao Yunyun. “I heard that hard times are always particularly long.”

“Oh.” Xiao Yunyun tried her best to pretend to be calm. “Maybe the happy times I have had are more detailed, so I think that sometimes, happy times are quite long. For example, when I’m with you, my happiness lasts very long!”

Shen Yuechuan smiled meaningfully and asked, “How long?”

Xiao Yunyun was no longer an innocent girl. She instantly understood what Shen Yuechuan meant and stamped her foot. “Mumu is here!”

Shen Yuechuan looked back at the little boy behind him and turned to say, “Explain why you feel that time flies when you are with him.”

“Because we are playing games!” Xiao Yunyun tried to rationalize it. “I would forget the time when playing games! So, my feeling is not necessarily right.”

“Good excuse.” Shen Yuechuan approached Xiao Yunyun one step at a time. “But what if I’m not satisfied?”

Xiao Yunyun could only use an old trick. She kissed Shen Yuechuan and said, “I like you!”

“Ah!”

Mumu cried out from behind them. He covered his eyes but then secretly opened his fingers to peek at them.

Shen Yuechuan noticed the little boy’s movement, so he personally covered his eyes with his hand and kissed Xiao Yunyun’s lips, his other hand holding the back of her head…

A few minutes later, Xiao Yunyun’s cell phone rang.

Xiao Yunyun pushed Shen Yuechuan away and answered the phone. Then she heard Su Jian’an’s voice.

“Yunyun, Aunt Zhou went to buy ingredients. You and Mumu can come back with Aunt Zhou.”

“Okay,” said Xiao Yunyun. “Send me Aunt Zhou’s phone number. I’ll contact her later.”

Su Jian’an quickly texted her a string of numbers. Xiao Yunyun saved the contact information and typed the name of Aunt Zhou…
