Chapter 379: Suppressing Jealousy
Chapter 379: Suppressing Jealousy
That day, Song Miqiu and the others were busy in the kitchen preparing lunch for Tian Yumei, while Yu Huailin was practicing dancing in the courtyard.
At this moment, Yan Yufan came to the door, but he was stunned when he saw Yu Huailin in the courtyard.
What are you doing here?
Upon seeing that the person who came was Yan Yufan, Yu Huailin sheathed his sword and deliberately faced him, saying, "How did I end up here? Shouldn't I be asking you why you found this place?"
The two sparked a connection the moment they met, and were evenly matched.
Why were you at Song Miqiu's house?
Ultimately, this is the question Yan Yufan really wants to ask.
The events that had happened before were still fresh in Yu Huailin's mind, so he was determined not to let Yan Yufan in.
"That's none of your business."
Yan Yufan stormed in, but Yu Huailin blocked her at the door with his sword.
"Since you treat me this way, don't blame me for being impolite."
Yan Yufan had long disliked Yu Huailin, so she grabbed him by the collar with one hand and slapped him across the face with the other.
Yu Huailin reacted instantly, tilting his head to dodge.
"Then don't blame me for being impolite."
The sword that Yu Huailin drew was truly masterful.
In terms of martial arts, how could Yan Yufan possibly be a match for Yu Huailin?
A scream stopped the two of them just half a meter away from Yan Yufan's shoulder.
"stop!"
It turned out that the sound of the two playing around had attracted Song Miqiu's attention, so she went into the yard to check on the situation.
Fortunately, Song Miqiu was released; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Song Miqiu walked up to the two men, panting heavily, but neither of them showed any sign of backing down.
Seeing the two locked in this stalemate, neither of them wanted to give up.
Song Miqiu stepped forward and pulled the two apart.
At this moment, Qiu Tianlei and Tian Yumei also walked into the courtyard.
Qiu Tianlei naturally recognized Yan Yufan; after all, he was his mother's cousin and should be called "uncle" according to seniority.
However, since the two were not much different in age, they continued to call each other by their first names.
Why are you here?
When Qiu Tianlei spoke to Yan Yufan, Yan Yufan's confidence instantly increased.
He glanced sideways at Yu Huailin, wondering what the two were competing against.
Why are you at home? Didn't you go out to do business?
"We have another precious son, so we'll be staying home from now on."
Yan Yufan was even happier upon hearing this news.
"Great! I'll come find you for drinks every day from now on."
Seeing Yu Huailin's dark face, Song Miqiu knew that the man was jealous again.
What else can you do but pamper your own man?
She walked over to Yan Yufan and separated him from Qiu Tianlei, preventing him from getting any closer to him.
If this continues, Yu Huailin won't be able to coax or soothe her at night.
“You must have something to say to me. If you’re here, just get to the point. If you’re not here, hurry home.”
Yu Huailin's expression gradually improved after hearing Song Miqiu's words.
Seeing the atmosphere, Yan Yufan stopped beating around the bush.
"My mother's birthday is in a couple of days, and my father specifically asked me to come and deliver a message to you."
Song Miqiu slapped his forehead.
"Oh dear, how could I forget about that? I just remembered it a few days ago."
Then Song Miqiu took Yan Yufan's hand and said...
"Go back and tell your mother that our whole family will definitely be there."
The reason why Song Miqiu values Yan Yufan's mother so much is that her only remaining memories after transmigrating are about Yan Yufan's mother.
Therefore, Song Miqiu has always treated Yan Yufan's mother as a very important person.
Yan Yufan took this opportunity to tightly grasp Song Miqiu's hand.
"I will definitely talk to my mother properly."
Completely absorbed in the news, Song Miqiu was completely unaware of this problem.
The two chatted for a few more minutes under some pretext before Song Miqiu remembered Yu Huailin and then saw Yan Yufan off.
"It's getting late, let's head back."
The message about Yan Yufan has been delivered, and I have no reason to stay any longer.
"Then I'll head back first; there are still several other places waiting."
Finished talking and left.
Seeing that Yan Yufan was about to leave, Qiu Tianlei quickly followed and saw him off.
After Yan Yufan left the courtyard, Yu Huailin threw down his sword and returned to his study, seething with anger.
Upon seeing this, Song Miqiu quickly went to the kitchen and brought the white fungus and bird's nest soup she had prepared to Yu Huailin.
Upon entering the study, he first observed Yu Huailin's expression.
Only then did he walk up to him with a grin.
"I made you some soup early this morning. It's just finished. Try it and see if it suits your taste. There's more if you finish it."
Song Miqiu made a slight attempt to befriend Yu Huailin, and the anger Yu Huailin had just felt subsided.
"You can have the servants do this kind of thing from now on, don't tire yourself out."
That's how the two avoided having any arguments.
The next morning, Song Miqiu was to go to the market.
Since it was Yan Yufan's mother's birthday, he felt he should prepare a gift, so he got up early to see if there was anything unusual at the market.
When Yu Huailin found out, he insisted on going with them.
Song Miqiu didn't think much of it, but was puzzled. "Why are you, a grown man, going to the market with me? Just have a servant come with me to get some things."
Once Yu Huailin loses his temper, who can stop him?
"Let's go."
They had been waiting for Song Miqiu at the door for a long time.
Having no other choice but to give in to Yu Huailin, Song Miqiu had no option but to relent.
"Alright, alright, let's go together then."
At this moment, Song Miqiu's grandchildren rushed to his side.
"Grandma, I want to eat candy."
"I want to eat it too."
How could Song Miqiu bear to refuse such adorable grandchildren?
"Okay, Grandma will bring you a big bag of candy when she comes."
As he spoke, he gestured with his hands like a little child, making his grandchildren laugh out loud.
When Song Miqiu arrived at the market, he actually found a gift that suited his taste.
They spent most of the day shopping for gifts for Yan Yufan's mother, with Yu Huailin following behind the whole time.
Song Miqiu felt guilty, but on the other hand, she was afraid that he would be jealous and uncomfortable.
After buying the items, I deliberately wandered around for a while before finally arriving at a stall selling jade pendants.
Song Miqiu carefully selected the jade pendants on the stall.
Yu Huailin assumed this was also a gift for them, and stood aside without even glancing at it.
It wasn't until Song Miqiu found the one she was most satisfied with, held it in her hand to look at it, and then compared it to Yu Huailin's waist, that she nodded with great satisfaction.
Yu Huailin then realized that Song Miqiu had bought it for him.
He suppressed his happy expression and pretended to be indifferent.
"Did you buy this for me?"
Song Miqiu had already paid by then.
"Of course, you can't be missing even if someone else is missing."
Yu Huailin's upturned lips betrayed his true feelings; Song Miqiu had already seen through it, but simply didn't expose him.
Then Song Miqiu put it directly on Yu Huailin's waist.
"From now on, you'll have to wear this jade pendant every day, you can't even take it off when you take a shower."
Yu Huailin has finally stopped being stubborn. "I don't take it off when I eat, sleep, or shower. I keep it on every day just like I'm keeping you company."
Song Miqiu turned her back to him, her smile growing even wider.
