Su Mubei tried his best to raise his head up to look at the tall man towering in front of him. Dressed in an expensive handmade suit, his slender figure appeared even more striking. There was an innate air of nobility that made him seem as though he had walked straight out of a painting, his lofty aura naturally demanding awe and a respectful distance from those around him.
“Mommy is waiting for me outside.” Under Qi Lingyan’s gaze, Su Mubei automatically puffed up his small chest and answered proudly. For some reason, he didn’t want to be looked down upon by the man in front of him.
Qi Lingyan’s eyes turned colder. The boy in front of him was but five or six years old. What kind of irresponsible parents could bear to let him walk around Nuoda’s airport alone? “Yan Bai, go send him out.”
“There is no need, I can do it myself.” Without a second of hesitation, Su Mubei refused the offer. Ever since he was five, he had been roaming between Country Y and Country F by himself, making a fool out of the group of people attempting to track him down. He didn’t need some stranger to escort him through this tiny airport.
Hearing these confident words, Qi Lingyan didn’t say anything more. He sent Yan Bai a nonchalant glance before turning around to leave.
Having known his employer for years, Yan Bai naturally understood the meaning behind the glance. As Su Mubei dragged his luggage out of the airport, he followed quietly behind.
Yan Bai was so bent on ensuring the safety of the child that he didn’t realize his actions hadn’t gone unnoticed. Only walking slightly ahead, a sharp glint flashed past Su Mubei’s blue eyes, and with a snort his thin lips curled into a scorn.
“He just… has to be the good guy.”
“Beibei!” A clear voice called out.
Not far away, a woman leaned against the door of a Volkswagen Passat, dressing in a khaki windbreaker. Her curls were waist-length with chestnut-colored highlights, her makeup exquisite. At the sight of her, the scorn that Su Mubei was carrying quickly faded away as he regained his composure. Under those sunglasses that no one could see through, the ice in those blue eyes melted.
“Mommy!”
Su Mubei took a few quick steps towards her and opened his mouth to say something. But the backseat window rolled down, and a small face that was nearly identical to his materialized, beaming brightly at him, “Brother!”
“Brother, you didn’t lose your disguise, did you?” Su Mubai, dressing in her panda outfits, waved and asked with a mischievous smile.
“Brother, aren’t my fans so very enthusiastic? Did any pretty auntie give you secret kisses?” asking with an innocent smile, the little girl blinked, her blue eyes the same as Su Mubei’s. Her face, which was as beautiful and pure as an elf, was surely able to melt anyone with its overloaded cuteness.
But Su Mubei, who had just been tricked by his sister, was naturally not deceived by those innocent smiles.
This girl was like those sesame-flavored tangyuan, her outside innocent and spotless, her inside dark and murky.
“Su Mubai, are you sure you want to continue this topic?”
“No… you know what, brother, I’ll help you put your luggage away.” Su Mubai shrank her neck, hurriedly got out of the car to take the luggage from Su Mubei’s hands and headed towards the trunk.
“You’d think that she’d learn her lesson if she doesn’t want to annoy her brother!”
Watching the kids, Su Xiaonai shook her head in amusement and proceeded to help her daughter put the suitcase in the trunk. Su Mubai was moving those luggage laboriously. Then, as if sensing something, Su Xiaonai swept her gaze across the crowd, a dark glint flashing across her languid, cat-like eyes.
“Mommy, a kind sir followed me out because he was afraid that I would get lost.” Noticing his mother’s expression, Su Mubei said softly.
“That’s good then.” Su Xiaonai gently stroked her long hair. As she blinked those cat-like eyes, she looked ever more charming, inadvertently mesmerizing the passerby.
A dark figure slowly walked out of the VIP exit. With a slight pause, he too, naturally landed his gaze upon her…
“Master Qi?” Yan Bai looked at the intimidating Qi Lingyan standing next to him, and back at Su Xiaonai again. Could it be that Master Qi, who was rumored to have no interest in women, was actually into this type?
“Nothing.” Qi Lingyan retracted his gaze and turned around to get on the black Mercedes-Maybach that came to greet him.
“Yes, sir.” Yanbai secretly heaved a sigh of relief. If he had heard correctly, that woman already had a pair of twins.
Master Qi isn’t into… right?!
“A Mercedes-Maybach S-Class. Not bad, not bad. The mister who got in that car just now was top-notch in terms of both looks and figure. Mommy, are you willing to consider him?”
Su Mubai, who was leaning against the car window, watched the Mercedes-Maybach disappear into the distance. Turning around, she circled Su Xiaonai’s arm and winked at her.
“Mommy already has us, so why dates and marriage? Is her phone or TV shows not fun enough?” Su Mubei answered grumpily, reaching out to pat his sister on the head.
“True, true! Men these days are too unreliable. They might look like decent people on the surface, but behind the scenes, they might just be scumbags who smoke, drink, and hit women. If mommy marries such a scumbag, and they sell us to some poor rural area to be the children for those who can’t get wives, then it’ll be over.”
“Stop, stop!”
Seeing that the kids were coming up with more and more ridiculous ideas, Su Xiaonai quickly waved them off, “mommy has no intention of getting married, so don’t you worry about all this trivial stuff. Otherwise, we’ll have to keep living like we’re running for our lives.”
“Running from what?”
A pleasant voice asked.
“Godmother!”
“Godmother!”
Registering the familiar voice, the two kids smiled their charming smiles and called out to Gu Xunjun.
“Good kiddos!” Gu Xunjun lowered her head and kissed the two kids on their cheeks before turning to look at Su Xiaonai. She narrowed her shrewd fox-like eyes and curled her red lips, returning to her question, “Running for your lives? Xiaonai, is there something you’ve been hiding from me?”
“Ugh…” Su Xiaonai guiltily rubbed her nose and glared at Su Mubai, who was wearing her innocent look, “it’s all because of this little brat here. She insisted on making Xu Mobai and me a couple, and he happened to take it seriously, so…”
“But Xu Mobai is cute and rich, has muscles and a whole lot of fans all over the world. Even his name has the character ‘bai’ in it, as I do. Isn’t this fate? Mommy, are you really not going to consider him?”
Having been called out by Su Xiaonai, Su Mubai stopped playing dumb. Blinking her big eyes, she answered earnestly.
“Did you forget you and Xu Mobai are as close as siblings? Are you sure you would want your big brother to be your stepfather?” Su Xiaonai massaged the spot between her brows. She was already back in the country, but she still felt a lingering fear at the thought of Xu Mobai’s pestering.
“Pfft…” Gu Xunjun, who was drinking a bottle of water, almost choked. She looked at Su Mubei’s aggrieved little face with amusement, “Baibai, I have to criticize you for this. You think of Xu Mobai as your big brother, but really he wants to be your dad. How’s that fair? That’s not OK.”
“But godmother, Xu Mobai is a nice guy! What’s wrong with him being my father?” Su Mubai refused to give up.
“You need to think about this carefully. At the very least, if Xu Mobai ends up as your dad, you’ll lose him as a brother! Think about it, the person you call big brother suddenly demands you to call him dad. From now on you’d rank as his junior in terms of social hierarchy. And you’re happy with that?”

“Well…” Su Mubai hesitated. Is she really content with suddenly becoming one generation junior to Xu Mobai?
“Guess you haven’t thought of that, although you can still think about this in the future.” Gu Xunjun patted Su Mubai on the shoulder and gestured for her to get into the car first, “come on! You’ve just come back, no need to worry about this just yet. Right now, I’ll take you guys to have some good food.”
“OK!” Su Mubai nodded and got into the car obediently.
“Good job!” After settling the children down, Su Xiaonai gave Gu Xunjun a thumbs up.
Gu Xunjun just swung her neat ponytail, “let’s go! Destination: Anran Lodge, I’m treating!”
