Chapter 597 - Let’s Have Another Child (1)

Joy was playing puzzles with the old butler. When he heard the sound of footsteps, he quickly looked up. His eyes lit up, and he leaped to his feet and dashed over to Zhao Youlin. “Mommy!”

Zhao Youlin squatted. She spread her arms and hugged her son, who had thrown himself into her arms.

Zhao Youlin planted a kiss on Joy’s forehead before she took the initiative and asked, “What are you playing with Mr. Butler?”

“Puzzles. We are playing jigsaw puzzles.” Joy honestly pointed to a jigsaw puzzle not far away that was already mostly put together. His eyes glowed with the desire for praise.

Zhao Youlin gave a smile before she scooped Joy up and walked over to the old butler.

“Young Master, Madam, welcome home.” At that moment, the old butler had already cleaned up and was standing solemnly by the side, greeting them. In addition, he asked, “Young Master, Madam, do you want to take a rest first or take your meal first?”

“Where’s Father, Mother and Grandpa?”

“Mr. Mu has gone out. He said he wanted to pay a visit to Mr. Su and that he would come back late. Young Master Xiaoyang and Madam Ruixin have gone out as well. Before they left, they told me that they would be back later, so we don’t have to wait for them.”

“If that’s the case…” Zhao Youlin thought for a brief moment before she cast a questioning glance at Mu Tingfeng, who stood behind her.

Mu Tingfeng received her hint. “Let’s eat first.”

“Noted. I’ll inform the kitchen helper to get ready first. You could take your meal after five minutes.” The old butler bowed to them before he left.

Zhao Youlin accompanied Joy to complete the remaining jigsaw puzzle. Mu Tingfeng, on the other hand, sat quietly on the couch while watching his wife and son.

Zhao Youlin abruptly stopped her hand movement while working on the jigsaw puzzles. She turned her head around and stared at her son’s side profile, who was already slightly dazed. It took her some time before she called him hesitantly, “Joy…”

“Huh?” Upon hearing Zhao Youlin’s call, Joy immediately looked up and stared at Zhao Youlin in puzzlement with his large eyes.

Zhao Youlin hesitated for a while when she met her son’s eyes and asked, “Joy, do you like younger siblings?”

Right after Zhao Youlin spoke, the father-son duo in the living hall were struck dumb.

Mu Tingfeng quickly straightened his back on the couch and looked at Zhao Youlin passionately. There was a hint of uncertainty and disbelief in his eyes.

Meanwhile, Joy stared at Zhao Youlin with his enormous eyes for some time before he asked warily, “Younger brother or sister?”

Zhao Youlin almost decided against delving deeper into the subject when she noticed her son’s apprehensive expression. She gritted her teeth, forced a smile, and said, “Yes. Younger brother or sister. Joy, do you still remember the little baby you met at the banquet last time? You might not be aware that Uncle Yichen and Aunt An Yue are expecting a child soon. When Aunt An Yue delivers the baby, you’ll have a younger sibling.”

Joy heaved a sigh of relief when he learned that Zhao Youlin was not the one providing him with younger siblings. His apprehension had given way to curiosity. “Does Aunt An Yue have a baby? Where’s her baby?”

After Joy finished asking the question, he was caught in a quandary. He had apparently followed his mother to pay a visit to An Yue, but he had not seen the baby. How come his mother told him that Aunt An Yue was expecting a child now? Could it be that the baby was hidden the previous time?

Zhao Youlin was amused by her son’s innocent question. She answered him patiently, “The baby is still inside Aunt An Yue’s belly, and it will come out when it grows older. Joy, I’m taking you to pay a visit to Aunt An Yue this weekend, okay?”

Joy seemingly understood her words as he gave a nod. He then cried out excitedly, “Okay! I would like to visit Aunt An Yue’s baby!”

Zhao Youlin smiled and reached out to touch Joy’s small head. She turned her head around and looked at My Ting Feng, who was sitting on the couch, only to find him returning her gaze.

For a moment, the smile on Zhao Youlin’s face turned stiff. She averted her gaze. Just then, the old butler returned to them and said gently and respectfully, “Young Master, Madam, you may have your meal now.”

It was only then that Zhao Youlin felt as if the emperor had finally shown her his mercy. She carried Joy and walked over to the dining table. In fact, she looked like she was fleeing.

Mu Tingfeng’s gloomy mood had finally lifted. He got up and followed suit.

Zhao Youlin fed Joy and accompanied him to watch a television programme. She read him a bedtime story before she put Joy to sleep and carried him back to his own room.

That’s right. She was putting Joy back in his own room.

After almost a month of endurance, Mu Tingfeng’s V-day had finally arrived. He had been looking forward to Joy staying in his own room so that he would not disturb them and they could share a private time together.

Zhao Youlin walked out of Joy’s bedroom. She carefully closed the door and then took a deep breath before she turned around and walked back to her room with Mu Tingfeng.

As soon as she opened the bedroom door, a strong force grabbed her wrist and pulled her into the room.

Zhao Youlin drew in a cold breath. She wanted to struggle. However, the next moment, she was taken aback when she was thrown into a familiar embrace. She slowly relaxed her body.

Mu Tingfeng hugged Zhao Youlin so tightly that it seemed as if he wanted to melt her flesh and bones into his own. He smelled her distinct body fragrance, which, in contrast to the rich perfume, made people feel very comfortable and soothing.

After a long hug with Zhao Youlin, Mu Tingfeng asked quietly, “Why did you tell Joy about An Yue’s pregnancy?”

They did not turn on the lights inside the room. Therefore, the interior of the room was pitch-black. They could vaguely figure out each other’s jawlines but could not see their faces clearly.

Given such an atmosphere, Mu Tingfeng’s voice grew increasingly attractive and sexy as his words echoed in her ears.

Unfortunately, the only person who had heard his voice had not been enchanted by him. Instead, Zhao Youlin rolled her eyes in resignation and mumbled, “Haven’t you already guessed it?”

The corners of My Tingfeng’s lips curled upward upon hearing Zhao Youlin’s words. A faint blue could be seen in his deep eyes, and his eyes became more appealing.

His eyes still gave off a prominent, imposing aura in the dark. His staring eyes had clearly delivered a message akin to saying he wanted to hear it from her.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Zhao Youlin was truly annoyed by him. She did not know if she should laugh or cry. The next moment, her face darkened. She stretched out her hand aggressively and grabbed My Tingfeng’s face as she said domineeringly, “Mu Tingfeng, let’s have another baby!”

Mu Tingfeng’s eyes glowed like a star fire that could start a fire anywhere in the prairie at any time.

In the middle of the dark, Mu Tingfeng’s hand unhesitatingly reached out for Zhao Youlin’s face. He asked in a hoarse voice, “So, you have been contemplating this issue over the past few days, huh?”

Zhao Youlin looked up and rolled her eyes at Mu Tingfeng. ‘What did he mean by “this issue”? Of course, you are not the one who is giving birth to the child. That’s why you could make it sound like a simple issue. You jerk!’

Zhao Youlin felt livid. She then narrowed her eyes and stared into My Tingfeng’s eyes. She retained her posture of holding his head, stood on tiptoe, and bit his lips.

Mu Tingfeng’s eyes flashed with surprise. By the time he reacted to it, he narrowed his almond-shaped eyes..
