Su Yue didn't know how to reply, so she just smiled.

Beibei came to Su Yue and smiled as brightly as he could. "Stepmother…"

Su Yue's face fell.

Beibei instantly corrected himself. "Sister, I'm here to play with Xiaojiao."

Mu Li was speechless…

When Beibei addressed Su Yue as 'stepmother', Madam Mu Li immediately caught on. This little fellow was here for Su Yue.

Kids nowadays were really too mature. He was here to court a woman on behalf of his father, and he even prepared so much in advance.

He had won over the twins with his presents.

Su Yue frowned suspiciously at Beibei.

He was here to play with Xiaojiao? When was he this close to Xiaojiao?

She remembered seeing him with Xiaojiao at the playground only once. And that was the day that Ming Ansheng had secretly taken Xiaojiao away.

Furthermore, Xiaojiao didn't mention him at all.

Forget it. He was just a young boy. Why should she think so much?

Su Yue murmured 'oh' and swept past Beibei.

"Xiaojiao, there are plenty of germs outside. Let's go wash hands first."

Su Yue carried Xiaojiao.

Beibei watched Su Yue as she walked away, and a sly grin played at the corners of his mouth. He went back to the couch to get his phone.

'Uncle Zhao, I told my daddy to fetch me at night. You can go back first.'

After he sent the text, he continued with another text to Ming Ansheng.

'Daddy, I'm here at Uncle Third Yan's house. I'm playing with Xiaojiao. Can you come and fetch me later?'

He grinned happily and covered his mouth.

"Brother."

Xiaojiao came down from the stairs, and she had already changed into a set of comfortable lounge wear. Her skirt ended at her knees, revealing her chubby-looking legs.

She held on to the railing as she came down.

Beibei immediately walked towards her. "Let me hold you."

The boy quickly went up the stairs and extended his hand towards Xiaojiao.

Su Yue watched them quietly from the staircase landing.

The older brother and younger sister.

She couldn't help but picture them as siblings.

She had never thought that Xiaojiao would ever be in the same picture as Ming Ansheng's child.

It happened so abruptly, yet so naturally.

She was feeling rather cool about this. She felt that as long as she remained composed, none of this would matter.

"Who are you?"

Su Xiaojiao asked Beibei after they came down from the stairs.

She raised her head and stared at Beibei with a frown.

Perhaps this boy looked vaguely familiar.

Beibei beamed at her. "I'm an older brother. Just call me Brother as I'm actually your real brother."

He stroked Xiaojiao's hair gently. His smile and actions revealed his affection and love for her.

Su Yue furrowed her eyebrows tightly. Something didn't seem right.

It seemed like this boy was deliberately trying to get close to Xiaojiao?

Was he here to take her away?

No… would he? Would he take Xiaojiao away from her?

'Uncle Ming, please don't do this. Don't… let me hate you.'

…

The children sat on the couch watching TV. They had just finished playing with their toys and it was chaotic everywhere.

After a long day, Mu Li was drained so she went upstairs to rest. Su Yue was left to take care of them.
