"D—Dowry..." Hui Yin felt dazed at this sudden turn of events. Then she seemed to get hold of herself and said, somewhat helplessly, "Little buns, I can't accept these, okay..."
Hui Yin was especially suspicious about Little Wuji's box. After all, how could a little kid like him have so much jewelry and money? She didn't think that the gems on those pieces of accessories were fake.
Baby Shang teared up, his small body quivering. "Wifey, why?" Don't you love me anymore?
"..." Hui Yin felt like an adulterous husband being caught by his wife for having an affair.
"Just accept his box," Jiang Xu said, sighing. All of those were his stuff anyway.
He grabbed Little Wuji's box and glared at his younger brother's innocent-looking face. "This box, on the other hand, is going back to the house."
Little Wuji turned around to look towards Hui Yin, who was still busy comforting Baby Shang, and then lifted his tender little arm straight out in front of Jiang Xu.
"Give back." He was still smiling, but it failed to reach his eyes as a cold murderous glint lingered deep inside its depths.
Jiang Xu hiccuped in fear, but stood his ground. He couldn't give this to her, what if she gets accused of being a felon? Damn it, this little brat is such a bad influence!
Seeing that his older brother wasn't planning on giving it back to him, Little Wuji's smile turned even colder. Maybe he should set several alarm clocks under his bed again...
"It's getting cold out here. Come inside," Hui Yin invited, as she grabbed Baby Shang's hand. At the sound of her voice, the smile that wasn't a smile on Little Wuji's face dissolved. Beaming up at Hui Yin with an angelic face that made him look like the type of person that couldn't harm a fly, he reached out and grabbed her other hand.
Jiang Xu heaved a sigh of relief. He felt like he just escaped with his life by the skin of his teeth.
But when he tried to follow them inside, Hui Yin suddenly released the two little buns and blocked him. "Where are you going? You're not invited to this sleepover."
Baby Shang adjusted his glasses and looked up at his older brother scornfully, as if saying, You want to take advantage of Wifey? Hmph, as if I'll let you do that!
Little Wuji didn't even glance at him, as if Jiang Xu was merely a random pedestrian.
Jiang Xu's face turned extremely ugly. Betrayed by his own flesh and blood...good, very good! The next time he was going to meet up with Hui Yin, he was going to bring with him their embarrassing baby pictures!
