Gong Siyu happened to notice Ji Younai, who was hiding by the door and secretly wiping away her tears. 

He looked at her sideways, curling his finger at her. 

The pretty slender figure quickly scurried towards him and hid behind him, refusing to show her face.

“What’s the matter?”

He turned around to hold Ji Younai’s palm-sized face and looked at it carefully.

“Liu Yun has found his family, so I’m happy for him,” she explained in a soft and gentle voice, “But I miss my parents too…”

‘But little one, your parents have already passed away.’

Gong Siyu sighed and held Ji Younai in his arms to console her for a while.

He liked consoling Ji Younai, having endless patience when doing so. 

He liked consoling her like the girls he saw when he was a child, who hugged their beloved dolls as if they were treasures. 

In the meantime, Gong Siyu thought to himself with a frown, ‘What kind of shitty analogy is this?’

“Well… I was raised by my master, who said that I was adopted. After my master passed away at an old age, the neighbors thought I was a demon, so they called the asylum to take me away. I was locked up in the crisis stabilization ward…”

Yue Chaoqun listened to Liu Yun briefly talk about his life for the past decade or so. At one point, he was so heartbroken that he almost had a heart attack.

“I stayed in the asylum for a year and every single day, I thought about how I could escape.” While speaking, he turned to look at Ji Younai who was in Gong Siyu’s embrace. “There, that’s Younai. Without her, I would probably still be locked up in the underground ward of the asylum, where I was electrocuted and drugged every day. She’s very nice, and I like her.”

Old Master Yue inhaled the vial of pure oxygen that Gong Siyu had instructed his servants to bring inorder to calm his nerves.

Upon hearing that his youngest son’s benefactor was around, he shifted his eyes, which still had a majestic gaze despite the wrinkled skin around then, onto the pale and sickly doll-like Ji Younai, who was still in Gong Siyu’s arms.

Gong Siyu’s handsome face turned extremely sullen immediately after hearing Liu Yun blatantly and shamelessly say that he liked Ji Younai. 

Ignoring the presence of Yue Chaoqun and his three sons, who held high positions, he raised his eyebrows and issued a warning, “Yue Liu Yun, you can’t like her!” 

Liu Yun remained silent, while Yue Chaoqun glared at Gong Siyu sternly. 

“Kid of the Gong Family, why can’t my youngest son like this doll-like girl?” After a pause, he looked at Liu Yun affectionately and continued, “As long as our Liu Yun likes her, we have to get her for him.” 

After saying that, he waved his hand at Ji Younai and said, “Come, lass, come here.”

Gong Siyu was suddenly startled and flustered.

‘Is Old Master Yue blatantly trying to take her away?’ he wondered

Gong Siyu pulled Ji Younai, hiding her behind him. In the end, he was so infuriated that he was almost fuming with smoke. 

Liu Yun strode towards him and pulled Ji Younai away from his safety. 

Yue Chaoqun began sizing Ji Younai up carefully before nodding and praising her continuously. 

“Great, this girl has wonderful genetics. I’ve never seen such a fair child before. This girl is far prettier than the girls in the compounds in our military district. Don’t you think so, Son?” he said to his eldest son. 

“Yes, Father,” Yue Jianxun agreed with a nod. Although he had a son who was already in middle school, he couldn’t help but take another glance at Ji Younai, as she was really beautiful. 

“Lass, what’s your name? What do your parents do?” Old Master Yue started asking about her background right in front of Gong Siyu. 

He lowered his head mellowly, not seeming cowardly at all. 

At this moment, Ji Younai appeared to have the composure of a girl from a wealthy family, as she was unperturbed by all the changes.

“My… My surname is Ji, and my name is Younai. Before his demise, my father was a professor at the Scientific Computer Research Institute of the Central Science University, while my mother was a professor at the Department of Literature of Beihua University… But they both passed away in a car accident more than a month ago.”

Yue Chaoqun felt that she was a perfect match for the Yue Family, coming from a family of scholars.

However, upon hearing that Ji Younai’s parents had both passed away not too long ago, he felt that she was really pitiful.

‘Poor girl…’ Yue Chaoqun sighed. 

He asked, “Well then, Lass, are you willing to follow us back to the Yue Family? Liu Yun likes you, so you two can become a pair. I’m afraid he won’t be able to adapt to the conditions at home.” 

As soon as Liu Yun heard that Yue Chaoqun wanted to bring Ji Younai home, his eyes beamed with joy. He winked at Ji Younai hysterically, seemingly trying to urge her to hurry up and say yes!

Hearing those words, Gong Siyu felt a feeling of suffocation in his heart and a look of panic flashed in his narrow eyes.

‘Surely this silly little one isn’t going to agree so easily, is she?’

Ji Younai was dumbfounded, her upturned, almond-shaped eyes freezing for a moment. The first thing she did was look back at Gong Siyu. 

She saw that he had an aloof and gloomy expression, which seemed to suggest that he was extremely displeased. 

She secretly rejoiced before politely declining.

“Uncle.” Actually, she wanted to address him as ‘Grandpa’.

She continued, “I think I’d better not disrupt the joy of the reunion between your family and Liu Yun. You’ve just reunited with each other and you must have endless things to say to each other and plenty of occasions to celebrate. Liu Yun and I are good friends. We can always meet each other and play whenever we want. However, him getting close to his family again and forging stronger ties needs to be put first.”

The gloominess in Gong Siyu’s eyes immediately disappeared when he heard Ji Younai’s words, which gave him a sense of relief. 

‘This little one really knows what to say.’ 

Yue Chaoqun began laughing heartily after hearing Ji Younai’s cajoling words. 

“Lass, you’re really sensible! I like that!” After a pause, he continued, “Okay then, since you’re so close to my youngest son, feel free to ask us for help whenever you need it. I’ll get Liu Yun’s three brothers to help you out and take care of you. How about that?”

Ji Younai thanked him gently, seemingly surprised and flattered. 

Liu Yun was somewhat disappointed because he did not get to take Ji Younai with him. 

Yue Chaoqun only stayed in Gong Siyu’s mansion for a short while before leaving, as he was anxious to take Liu Yun home to see his mother.

Liu Yun looked like he was reluctant to leave Ji Younai. When he arrived at the gate of the mansion, he pulled Ji Younai’s small hands into his own and refused to let go.

“Yue Liu Yun, let go of her!” Gong Siyu barked, gritting his teeth.

“No,” Liu Yun retorted.

“She’s mine!”

“Save it, we still don’t know who she’ll end up with.” There was a gloomy, devilish luster in his red eyes.

The pale, handsome, and slim teenager with red eyes was competing with the noble and sinisterly Gong Siyu, who was condescending to everyone and everything. 

Old Master Yue was helped out and he stopped beside the two of them. 

“Son, get inside the car. We’re going home.”

“Alright!” Liu Yun replied obediently. He then shook Ji Younai’s small hand and said, “Wait for me, Younai. I’ll come to visit you as soon as I can.”

“Okay!” 

As Yue Chaoqun was helped into the car by Yue Jianxun, a pair of pale and majestic scrutinized the way that Gong Siyu was gazing at Ji Younai.

‘Not simple! Not simple at all! There’s a look of overbearing possessiveness in his eyes, but I don’t know if that’s a good thing or a bad thing. This Gong Family kid is my comrade, Commander-in-chief Gong’s most precious grandson. He’s his handpicked successor, and very precious.’

He had long heard that the old Mrs. Gong had already found a fiancée for Gong Siyu, who was compatible with him in terms of family background and could help Gong Siyu keep up the entire family’s honor. In the future, she would also do very well in all the matters that the matriarch of the Gong Family would need to preside over.

Although Ji Younai’s parents had both died, she was still considered the daughter of a pair of well-educated parents. However, she was still a far cry from being a compatible wife for Gong Siyu, the noble successor of the Gong Family. 

He wondered what Gong Siyu would do.
