“Hahaha!” Su Ruixin was the first to react to this. She grinned as she said, “Would you believe us if I said we happened to pass by?”
Mu Tingfeng stared at her coolly, “What do you think?”
Su Ruixin was dumbfounded. She looked at her uncomprehending son depressively and thought to herself. ‘How come my son is so disrespectful to the elders? He’s so not cute at all!’
Su Ruixin knew that she could not fool them over. As such, she faked a cough and decided to shift the topic to Joy. She exclaimed and reached out to hug Joy.
“Dear Joy, why did you come to your parents’ room? Come here quickly. I’ll take you back to your own room.”
Right after Su Ruixin spoke, as expected, everyone looked at her with disdain.
Mu Tingfeng was rendered speechless, as were Mu Xiaoyang and the former master Mu. The way they stared at her was akin to rebuking and questioning her that she was the main culprit who had run her mouth off by spilling the beans to Joy which had caused him to go to their bridal chamber!
Su Ruixin was diffident. Beads of cold sweats broke out on her forehead. She lamented to herself. Before this, she heard that Zhao Youlin had slept with Joy since they moved out of the Mu family’s house.
Who would have thought that Joy would… ahem… at that very moment?
She thought that the reason Joy asked her the question was out of reluctance after learning that her parents were going to sleep together.
Therefore, she spoke softly and gently to Joy in order to avoid hurting him or causing him to cry.
Who would have guessed that Joy was so cunning that he sneaked into the room when no one was looking and nearly made a mess of it?
Under the crowd’s stare, Su Ruixin felt a bone-chilling coldness crept down her spine. She smiled stiffly as she took Joy from Zhao Youlin’s arms without a sense of shame.
This was not Su Ruixin’s first time carrying Joy. Therefore, Joy did not refuse her. However, he looked down in puzzlement and asked pitifully, “My own room? Do I have to sleep in a different room? Why couldn’t I sleep with Mommy? We’ve slept together in the past, so why can’t we sleep together now?”
It rendered the adults speechless when they saw Joy in his current state. They exchanged glances with one another helplessly.
“Urm… Madam Mu… I mean Mother…” Zhao Youlin intended to address Su Ruixin as Madam Mu. After noticing Su Ruixin’s pitiful gaze which was the same as Joy’s, she decided to compromise with her and said, “Joy, how about you sleep with us tonight?”
“How can this be?!” Before Zhao Youlin finished speaking, Su Ruixin screamed in a high-pitched voice. When she realized her loss of composure, she quickly restrained herself. However, the hint of nervousness in her eyes remained.
“Tonight is your wedding night with Tingfeng. How could you let Joy ruin the mood?”
“But…” Joy was causing Zhao Youlin concern. Ever since she met Joy, he had been sleeping with her. She could not afford to let him sleep alone all of a sudden.
“That’s it. Joy is already such a grown-up. He couldn’t possibly be glued to you and sleep with you for the rest of your life, right?” ‘Besides, look at the guy standing behind you. His face is so dark that it’s darker than thunderclouds.’
“Urm…” Even though Zhao Youlin knew that it was best for a boy to learn independence from a young age, it had to be done step-by-step. She felt it was a little… cruel to leave Joy to sleep alone all of a sudden.
Zhao Youlin hesitated. When Su Ruixin saw this, she gritted her teeth and suggested, “How about this? Joy is going to sleep with us tonight. We’ll talk about the rest the next time, okay?”
Right after Su Ruixin spoke, Mu Xiaoyang’s in turn, felt his expression turn black. He soon held his anger back and thought to himself. ‘I’ll put up with it this time for the sake of my son’s wedding night!’
Since Su Ruixin had said so, Zhao Youlin had nothing else to say. She forcefully agreed to her, “Alright, then.”
Only then did they breathe a sigh of relief in unison. Joy, who was in Zhao Youlin’s arms, grew increasingly puzzled. “Mommy, does that mean I can’t sleep with you tonight?”
When Zhao Youlin met her son’s pitiful eyes, she had no choice but to turn her heart to stone. She reached out for Joy’s small head and coaxed him, “Joy, you go sleep with Grandma Su tonight, okay?”
Joy stared at Zhao Youlin for some time but still, Zhao Youlin did not take back her words. He realized there was no way out of this. As such, he gave a nod reluctantly.
He had one more question before following Su Ruixin back to her room. “Mommy, what is a wedding night? Why couldn’t I spend your wedding night with you? Is it necessary for you to have wedding nights with Daddy every night? If that’s the case, does that mean I can’t sleep with you anymore? It’s clear that wedding nights did not exist in the past. So, how about this? Mommy, you’re not going to spend the wedding night with Daddy, okay? I want to sleep with you guys.”
Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng fell speechless.
It also rendered the three elders speechless.
The adults were stunned upon facing Joy’s continuous line of questions. Su Ruixin was rendered speechless. She faked a cough and decided to trick Joy in the same way that adults usually tricked children. “Joy, you would naturally know what a wedding night is when you grow up. It’s already very late. You shouldn’t sleep so late at night. Come, I’ll get you to bed.”
After she finished speaking, Su Ruixin did not give the chance for Joy to make a more shocking remark. She scooped Joy up and fled away.
Following Su Ruixin’s departure, the other two elders, who had already felt a chill creeping down their spines, cleverly knew that it was time to leave the couple alone. They faked a cough and said solemnly, “We still need to receive some guests downstairs. We have to make a move now. Rest well.”
“Huh…” Zhao Youlin was struck dumb when she saw they left in a hurry. ‘Are they truly my elders? Why do I find them so unreliable? Is it too late to regret my own decision now?’
As soon as the people who caused them trouble had left, Mu Tingfeng hurriedly took Zhao Youlin and pulled her inside the room. He shut the bedroom door and locked it.
The moment Zhao Youlin stepped into the room and before she said anything, she was already pinned to the door by Mu Tingfeng. He kissed her passionately.
“Um…um…um…” He kissed her unexpectedly. Zhao Youlin was almost choked by her own saliva. She wanted to struggle. However, when she saw Mu Tingfeng’s eyes had turned red with a hint of aggressiveness, she gradually relaxed.
She wrapped her hands around Mu Tingfeng’s neck.. She followed Mu Tingfeng’s rhythm and returned his kiss indulgently.
