Yong Liwei landed his ice-cold gaze at her. He frowned when he saw what she was trying to do. Such a nuisance. 

She flashed him a tight-lipped smile, her eyes begging him to forgive her brother just this once.

"I can't believe you really married an old man, Jiejie! He's my uncle!" Xia Liqin exclaimed. He still couldn't accept the other man as his brother-in-law.

"He may be your uncle but he's not mine." 

"But-"

"Qinqing, you know how much I treasure you but right now, you're getting on my nerves." She scowled at him.

"Some people are such treasures that you just want to bury them. Alive." Yong Liwei stated before he reverted to his other-self. With Lu Mengjie around, Han Yizhou's pull against him was stronger. She was a hindrance that he needed to remove. Soon.

Both the siblings ended up looking at him with their mouths open. 

The atmosphere in the room lightened up. A heavy sigh escaped Han Yizhou's lips. "If you don't like me for your sister because I am way older than her then just look at my face, not my age."

When she noticed that he was back to the alter she loves, Lu Mengjie couldn't help but nod her head as she agreed to what he said. "He looks younger than father, Qinqing. That alone is important.

Xia Liqin: "..." 

That was not the kind of answer he was waiting to hear. Shouldn't they say that they love each other so much that they don't care if they have a huge age gap? Age doesn't matter when it comes to love. They should defend their love this way.

But who was he fooling? Face mattered most to his sister. He finally sighed in defeat. It was pointless. They were already married. He felt his energy drained after punching Han Yizhou. Despite that, it was satisfying. At least he punched him.

"Jiejie, pay up." He held out his hand, his eyes tired.

She blinked her eyes in confusion after hearing what he said. "Pay up?"

"For the emotional and physical damages, you both caused me." He has never asked his sister for money. This was a first. "You now have a very rich husband, now pay up."

She flashed him a close-lipped smile. She clenched her hand into a fist and showed it to him "How about I pay you with my fist?"

"Then that will cost you more."

"It's fine, Mengjie." Han Yizhou inserted, putting down her fist.

"No, it's not." She looked at her brother and narrowed her eyes at her brother. "You punched him. Shouldn't you pay for his physical damage?"

"..." Xia Liqin pursed his lips together.

"And also for the emotional damage, you caused him? Look how hurt he is."

"He looks fine." He pouted.

"How can he look fine when you haven't accepted him as your brother-in-law?" 

"How can he be my brother-in-law when he is my uncle?"

"Because I said so!" She placed her hands on her waist. She was not going to stand down and her brother knew this so, in the end, he gave up. He hung his head low, looking like a dejected pup.

"Jiejie…" He was using one of the charms that he knew would work against his sister. He looked at her with his puppy eyes. It was kind of comical to see a man like him act cutesy to his sister.

"Ugh…" she grunted. She averted her eyes from her brother and instead, focused on her husband. "We should treat those lips of yours."

Han Yizhou eyed her brother and a small taunting smirk crept on the side of his lips. He turned his gaze back at his wife and said, "a kiss from you should suffice."

A small blush appeared on Lu Mengjie's cheeks but on the other hand, it was the opposite for her brother. Xia Liqin's brow twitched. His muscles twitched, wanting to give his 'brother-in-law' another punch just to wipe off that smirk from his lips. He was not going to let him have her after all.

"Go on, Jiejie. Kiss him so that his lips will be infected by bacteria." He huffed and puffed, crossing his arms. 

"I'm going to get the first aid kit." She sighed. Can't they just get along?

"Jiejie… my hand hurts…" He suddenly sounded so dejected.

His sister turned her gaze back at him and raised a brow. Her eyes landing on the hand he used against her husband.

Xia Liqin showed his hand to her. It looked fine but he shamelessly continued, "Yong Liwei's jaw is so sharp look at how my hand is swelling."

Lu Mengjie: "..."

Han Yizhou: "..."

Was that a compliment or…?

The couple ended up looking at each other.

"I'm also hungry! I miss jiejie's cooking!"

The last time she cooked, she almost burned the kitchen. No matter how much she practiced that certain skill in her stay in Switzerland, she couldn't perfect any dish. Was her brother still in the right mind? He knew that she was not a good cook! If she was, then wouldn't that make her the most perfect person on earth?

This time Han Yizhou turned his gaze to her and asked, "you can cook?"

Xia Liqin inwardly smirked as he thought, 'she can cook poison for you!'

Wouldn't that make things easier for him then? Han Yizhou dying at the hands of his own wife! 

Now that they were talking about food, Lu Mengjie felt her stomach complain. Just like them, she didn't have breakfast yet. "Can't we just order? It's faster."

Han Yizhou was about to open his mouth but before words could escape, he was interrupted by a ringtone coming from a certain phone in the bedroom.

The woman was quick to recognize the ringtone since it came from her phone. "Excuse me." She left the two men and went to the bedroom.

Xia Liqin's eyes narrowed as he began having a staring contest with the other man.

Han Yizhou didn't back down. The first to look away was the loser and he was never a loser.

"My father is not going to accept you," the younger man started.

"I'm pretty sure that I won't be needing your help in dealing with him." 

"He will kill you."

"I'd like to see him try."

"You don't know how scary father can get."

The older man flashed a closed-lipped, knowing smile. He knew who Lu Xian Yu was, after all, he had a notable history in the Azure Republic. He helped his father catch the people behind his mother's death. It was also the time where his father finally handed Lu Xian Yu a golden card.

"Of all the men in the world, why does it have to be my uncle who is a lot older than her?" Xia Liqin muttered under his breath.

Han Yizhou's ears were sharp. He was able to hear what he said but he remained quiet. He was still Lu Mengjie's brother so as much as possible, as the man who is older than him, he wanted to avoid making further conflicts between them.

…

Meanwhile, Lu Mengjie was in the bedroom, talking on her phone.

"Yes, yes, I will be going home after having my breakfast with my husband," she said.

"I can't believe that you're prioritizing your husband over your son? What kind of mother are you?" Bella Qin's voice was heard from the other side of the call.

"A new one." She already knew that she was being selfish when she thought of spending the night with her husband. "Besides, I have you there and I have stocked enough of my breast milk."

"This should be the last time I'm seeing such actions from you, young lady. You are now a mother and you need to be more responsible. You can't always depend on someone else when taking care of your child. You don't want him to grow up hating you, do you?"

When she heard Bella Qin's words, she was hit with reality. Was she being too dependent on her to the point where she was being irresponsible? 

A sigh was heard on the other line. "Just come back after having your breakfast, okay? Don't forget to bring a strawberry shortcake on your way as compensation."

"Yes ma'am."

After the call ended, Lu Mengjie kept her phone back in her slingback. She went to the bathroom to take the first aid kit from the medicine closet. She walked out of the bedroom only to see her husband and her brother staring at each other. Were they at it since earlier?

She cleared her throat to grab their attention. "As I was saying earlier, let me tend to Yizhou before we head down and have our breakfast together, shall we?"
