Going home for the New Year during the winter break, I encountered a cool school girl on the high-sp

Chen Ziyan did not cheer or jump for joy after receiving the praise.

Instead, she slightly furrowed her brows.

She looked up at Lin Muxi with a serious expression.

The child asked in a childish voice, yet with utmost seriousness:
"Is he... even more handsome than my Uncle Chen?"

Lin Muxi was taken aback by this sudden question.

I'm trying to figure out how to answer without hurting a child's feelings.

Chen Chen, standing to the side, calmly released her hand.

He crouched down to be at eye level with Chen Ziyan.

A sly smile played in his eyes.

His tone, however, was deliberately serious:
"Ziyan, you know that people shouldn't lie, right?"

Chen Ziyan's little head immediately drooped.

Her little mouth pursed slightly, and she muttered softly:

"As expected... Aunt Xiaoxi only has Uncle Xiaochen in her heart..."

Chen Chen saw this.

A satisfied smile appeared on his lips.

He reached out and ruffled his nephew's hair.

He solemnly "educated" them:

"Your aunt only has eyes for me, isn't that normal? You want someone who only has eyes for you too? That's easy, just work hard and find yourself a girlfriend!"

Chen Ziyan blushed slightly after Chen Chen's "earnest teachings".

He stammered, "Who...who wants a girlfriend!"

He secretly glanced at Lin Muxi.

I saw her covering her mouth and chuckling.

I felt even more embarrassed.

Chen Chen stood up, raised an eyebrow at Lin Muxi with a smug look, as if he were asking for credit.

Lin Muxi playfully slapped him: "You, all you know how to do is bully children."

“I’m educating him,”

Chen Chen didn't take it to heart, and took Lin Muxi's hand again, gently stroking the back of her hand with his fingertips.

"Besides, did I ask the wrong question?"

Lin Muxi's cheeks flushed from his question, and her eyes darted around, unable to meet his gaze.
"You're the only one who's right."

“That’s how it is,” Chen Chen whispered in her ear, looking down. “In your heart, there can only be me.”

A warm breath brushed against her ear, and Lin Muxi's heart skipped a beat. She quickly pulled her hand away and feigned anger, saying:

"You're getting more and more indecent!"

As he spoke, he walked into the house.

Chen Chen watched her slightly flustered figure from behind, his smile deepening, and quickly followed after her.

Seeing this, a group of elders behind them...

Everyone became "blind with their eyes open".

They ignored the flirting between the young couple in front of them.

Eyes and nose.

Observe your heart through your nose.

Silently, they followed him into the house.

Young people these days, they really have great relationships.

This natural expression, so lively and cheerful.

Unlike their time.

Most of them were arranged by their parents and matchmakers.

Before marriage, some couples haven't even met each other, let alone gotten to know each other.

My aunt just happened to be carrying the last plate of vegetables out of the kitchen.

As soon as Lin Muxi and Chen Chen walked in.

His face immediately lit up with a kind smile, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes smoothed out.

"Oh my, Xiaochen and Xiaoxi are back! Come in, come in and sit down!"

She greeted them warmly, then turned and called out into the house:

"Ziyan! Come out and greet your Uncle Chen and Aunt Xiaoxi. You've been talking about them for months, and now they're finally here!"

Chen Ziyan listened to his grandmother's words.

She immediately ran over obediently, took Lin Muxi's hand, and led her towards the main seat, her little face full of eagerness:
"Auntie Xiaoxi, come sit here."

Lin Muxi was startled by his display of force.

He quickly pulled Chen Chen next to him and found an empty seat next to him to sit down.

"Well... I'll just sit here."

She dared not sit in the main seat. (End of Chapter)
