Chapter 21 - Chapter 20: Trick Wan Xiaoxiao

Jiang Junyi dodged Wan Qingyun's outstretched 'devil claws' and stood up with a chuckle.

He never tired of his wife's shy and slightly annoyed expression.

Just as the two were playfully bickering, a whirlwind figure suddenly burst into the study, launching a flying kick.

"Damn Jiang Junyi! Get away from my sister!"

Jiang Junyi glanced back and twisted his waist to avoid the kick.

Wan Xiaoxiao landed, looking at him indignantly, "Didn't you forget something?!"

Jiang Junyi raised an eyebrow, "What?"

"Oh!"

He paused.

"I brought breakfast for Qingyun."

Jiang Junyi retrieved the breakfast from the living room: a bowl of wontons and a poached egg.

"Quick, quick, eat it while it's hot. I made this myself."

When Wan Qingyun heard that Jiang Junyi had made it himself, her throat subtly bobbed.

After tasting Jiang Junyi's cooking yesterday, she had been thinking about it.

"Cough, cough, you, don't mess around, I'll eat it myself!" Wan Qingyun pointed towards where Jiang Junyi was standing.

"Ah~ But these wontons are very hot, I need to blow on them for you, and how can you accurately scoop up the wontons?" Jiang Junyi posed the challenge.

Wan Qingyun was slightly stunned; it seemed she had never eaten wontons before.

This dish was a bit troublesome.

However, she quickly reconsidered. She was now a Post-Heaven Martial Artist, so she could sense whether the wonton was in the spoon or not.

"No... you don't need to worry, I can sense it."

"Really?"

"Of course!" Wan Qingyun said with a confident expression.

Jiang Junyi looked at the confident and proud Wan Qingyun, like a white swan, and a gentle smile appeared on his face.

Ah ah ah ah! So cute! So lovely!

Compared to his outwardly gentle demeanor, his heart was already pounding wildly.

Involuntarily, Jiang Junyi slowly caressed Wan Qingyun's cheek, his movements so gentle that Wan Qingyun didn't struggle for a moment.

She could feel the genuine emotion flowing from Jiang Junyi's fingertips.

So Wan Qingyun did not resist this gentle caress, nor did she become shy or angry as usual. Instead, she calmly felt the warmth of Jiang Junyi's palm.

A warm and sweet atmosphere flowed between the two of them.

Just as Jiang Junyi was about to lean his head closer...

"Hey! I said! I'm still here!!!"

Wan Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth, then pulled the two apart.

"Cough, cough! Xiao Xiao, your sister was just thinking about something."

Wan Qingyun pretended to cough and explained.

"Ding~ Detected that the pure love object greatly enjoyed the warm atmosphere just now. Pure love value continues +5.20!"

"Hmph!"

"Blech!" Jiang Junyi stuck out his tongue at Wan Xiaoxiao.

"Damn Jiang Junyi, look at what time it is!" Wan Xiaoxiao said with an angry expression.

Jiang Junyi was stunned, "Why look at the time?"

This time, it was Wan Xiaoxiao's turn to freeze.

No, buddy.

Yesterday, you were the one who said you'd drive me to school, right?!

For a moment, Wan Xiaoxiao felt a little wronged.

Suddenly, she felt a large hand cover her head, then vigorously ruffle her hair.

"Alright, I know I need to drive you to school. There's still time."

Wan Xiaoxiao slapped away Jiang Junyi's hand and walked towards the door.

However, her steps were a little lighter.

Jiang Junyi shook his head, "Qingyun, I'm going to take Xiao Xiao to school first. Remember to finish the wontons, okay?"

He leaned closer to Wan Qingyun, "I'll tell you a secret: your mother-in-law made these for you."

With that, Jiang Junyi fled as if flying, leaving the gradually blushing Wan Qingyun behind.

Mother-in-law... Mother-in-law?!

My mother-in-law... wouldn't that be Jiang Junyi's mother...

No, no, what mother-in-law! It hasn't reached that point yet.

But Mom's wontons are also delicious...

Bah! She's not Mom yet.

Wan Qingyun happily ate the wontons. The filling Zhao Ningyu chose, combined with Jiang Junyi's cooking skills, made her tongue feel like it was going to fall off.

Her body even swayed slightly...

Meanwhile.

Wan Xiaoxiao had already gotten into Jiang Junyi's car. Of course, Uncle Wu was the driver.

As soon as she got in the car, Uncle Wu's address of 'Second Miss' made the young girl blush.

As a result, she was very quiet in the car, seemingly trying to live up to the title of 'Second Miss'.

"I say, why are you so quiet?" Jiang Junyi, sitting in the passenger seat, turned back curiously.

"Well, of course, I've always been this gentle, okay?" Wan Xiaoxiao responded with a smile.

"Tsk, you were so gentle when you were doing a flying kick too~" Jiang Junyi said sarcastically.

"Jiang Junyi!"

"Thump."

Jiang Junyi swiftly reached out and flicked Wan Xiaoxiao's forehead.

"Ow! Why did you hit me?"

"Call me Brother-in-law!"

"No!"

"I'll give you pocket money."

"No... how much?" Wan Xiaoxiao leaned forward.

Jiang Junyi held up one finger.

"100 yuan? That seems okay too." Wan Xiaoxiao stroked her chin.

"10,000."

"How... how much?!"

"Ten... thousand."

"Brother-in-law~" Wan Xiaoxiao called out with a grin.

Making money, it's not shameful.

Jiang Junyi's mouth curved into a sly smile upon hearing this: "Take out your phone, I'll transfer it immediately."

"Okay!"

Wan Xiaoxiao excitedly rummaged through her backpack. Uncle Wu, beside her, smiled faintly and shook his head.

As expected of Young Master, he's full of tricks.

Soon, Wan Xiaoxiao pulled out a phone with a slightly cracked screen, opened the QR code for payment, and looked at Jiang Junyi expectantly.

Jiang Junyi did not go back on his word and transferred ten thousand yuan in front of Wan Xiaoxiao.

Just as Wan Xiaoxiao was about to cheer, Jiang Junyi snatched her phone away.

Huh?

Jiang Junyi shook the phone, "Here, your phone is confiscated starting now. You study hard, and then your Brother-in-law will get you a good phone, how about that?"

Wan Xiaoxiao didn't speak, still in a state of shock.

A trick! It's all a trick!

"No! After school, I'm going to call the home landline and let my sister know!" Wan Xiaoxiao argued vehemently.

"I'm already picking you up and dropping you off for school, why would you call?" Jiang Junyi retorted.

"This..." For a moment, Wan Xiaoxiao was speechless. It seemed like...

This way was actually safer.

At this moment, Jiang Junyi added, "And even if I'm busy, Uncle Wu will pick you up on time. You can rest assured about that."

"Yes, Second Miss."

Wan Xiaoxiao, who was just about to flare up, suppressed herself again upon hearing the words "Second Miss."

"Hmph! You said it!"

"My word is my bond."

Wan Xiaoxiao pouted, crossing her arms and leaning back against the seat.

Jiang Junyi, meanwhile, carefully examined Wan Xiaoxiao's old phone.

It was a very old phone, about five years old, from when Wan Xiaoxiao had just started junior high.

This showed that the sisters' lives had not been so good before.

This small Western-style house was most likely left behind by their parents.

A disabled blind girl and a child.

Jiang Junyi couldn't imagine how much hardship the two had endured to grow up to this point.

For a moment, a look of pity appeared on his face. Of course, he was mainly heartbroken for Wan Qingyun.

Wan Xiaoxiao, barely an afterthought.

After a while longer, the gate of Jiangcheng No. 1 High School appeared.

The black luxury car slowly drove up, immediately becoming the focus of all the students at the school gate, who all speculated which young lady it belonged to.

Just as Wan Xiaoxiao was about to open the door to get out, Uncle Wu was one step ahead, opening the door for her and placing his hand on the door frame, protecting Wan Xiaoxiao.

For a moment, she even felt a little shy.

As Wan Xiaoxiao got out of the car, all the students' gazes turned to her.

However, her personality was naturally lively and outgoing. She held her neck high like a proud little swan.

Jiang Junyi also got out of the car, and everyone's eyes turned to this imposing, incredibly handsome man.

"Remember, study hard."

"I know, I know!" Wan Xiaoxiao replied, walking towards the school gate.

Her steps were light, and her body swayed.

Clearly, the child was overjoyed.

Jiang Junyi shook his head and returned to the car, "Let's go, back! I haven't had enough time with my Wan Qingyun's baby yet!"
