I Hate You, Devil! Chapter 167 Today

Chapter 167 Today

The family of four, their two babysitters, and the shameless historian who squeezed himself in, finally ate their breakfast together. Somehow, it was the liveliest breakfast that had ever happened inside the black house so far.

"Juu, Kyuu… would you mind if I ask you guys how old you are?" Luo Xiaolei asked and the two simultaneously shook their head.

"We don't mind Miss," Kyuu answered. "We're both 26."

"Ehh?" Luo Xiaolei was surprised. "T-that's a surprise. I actually thought you guys are still in your early 20s."

"Haha, Miss, these two are vampires. They don't get old at all." Gu Wei b.u.t.ted in mischievously. But what he said somehow didn't feel like a joke at all. The two were just too pale and really looked so young. They could really pa.s.s as vampires!

"You guys really do have baby faces," was all Xiaolei could say as she smiled at them.

After their breakfast, Yu Chen stayed with Luo Xiaolei in the kitchen. The little buns seemed to have been told not to disturb their mommy and daddy that they refused to stay with them. They even told them that they have some karate sessions with their big bros, Juu and Kyuu.

"Juu and Kyuu really look so young and they're so unusually pale." Xiaolei started as she washed the dishes. Yu Chen was standing right next to her, watching what she was doing, very intently.

"What do you think about them?" he asked, sounding barely interested.

Looking at his face, Luo Xiaolei couldn't help but smile. She could see the words 'please let me help you' written all over his face.

"Mr. Yu, are you sure you want to help me wash these?" she really couldn't imagine this almighty CEO was.h.i.+ng dishes but, somehow, deep within her, she wanted to see it. Well, who would blame her? She saw just how adorably focused he was while peeling garlics a while ago so she couldn't help but want to more now.

As soon as the man nodded so tenaciously, Luo Xiaolei chuckled.

"Okay, fine, I get it. Here, you rinse these." She said giving him some gla.s.ses. "Be careful not to drop it, okay?"

"Mm."

Luo Xiaolei almost s.p.a.ced out as she watched him do his task so d.a.m.n seriously, quite determined even. 'Pfft, why so serious? Stop acting as though you're handling a certain priceless treasure or something! Ah, you're too adorable for your own good, big panda!'

"Is this fine now?" he asked after spending minutes rinsing one single gla.s.s.

Luo Xiaolei chuckled again. "You should conserve water Mr. Yu. You literally wasted a pail of water just to rinse one gla.s.s."

Yu Chen creased his brows.

"Also, this will take forever if you do it like that." She added and the man now looked troubled.

'd.a.m.n! Stop being cute like that!'

"Ahem…" she cleared her throat, trying to clear her mind. "Let me show you. This is how you do it."

After watching Xiaolei's demonstration, Yu Chen's enthusiasm was back again. He started was.h.i.+ng the gla.s.ses with serious expression.

"Wait…" Luo Xiaolei interrupted him from his working mode. She washed the foam from her hands and dried it before she took his sleeve and folded his pajama s.h.i.+rt. "Mr. Yu, please relax. Don't be so serious." She grinned and the man just innocently nodded.

By the door, a certain paparazzi was busy recording the entire event. He was grinning widely, enjoying his very own beloved job. But sigh… if only he was invisible, he could have been right there, close enough to capture every single detail.

Time ticked by and they were finally drying the dishes with a cloth, their talk eventually returned to the vampires living in the attic.

"I think that they could be future movie superstars, especially Juu. The first time I saw him, I imagined him as a fantasy hero. His every feature is definitely a movie material."

"Do you want to scout him?" Yu Chen asked. Luo Xiaolei was no longer surprised that this man knew what she was thinking again.

"Well, yes but they're important bodyguards of yours."

"Actually, they are no longer my bodyguards."

"Eh? Why?"

"They have some health issues so they're just staying at the house now."

"Health issues? Are they alright?" Luo Xiaolei looked worried.

"Don't worry, they're alright. If you want, you can try Juu. But I can't guarantee that you can make him act."

As their talk continued, Luo Xiaolei decided to bet on Juu. She could just see a lot of potential in him and she was seeing him as a new challenge for her. Besides, she somehow felt bad that he was just staying in the house like that.

"But how about Kyuu?"

"I don't think Kyuu will agree to follow you even if I ordered him to. That guy doesn't follow anyone but me."

"Oh… I see."

"Xiaolei…"

"Hm?"

"You don't have any appointments for today?" he asked, his expression now serious.

"No, I'll be staying home today. Why?"

Yu Chen was silent for a moment. "That place I wanted you to see, I want us to go there today."

Luo Xiaolei's eyes slowly circled as she looked at him and for some reason, her heartbeat dramatically accelerated. Wait… was she nervous? Why would she?

"R-really? Today?"

"Mm."

…

After tidying everything, the couple went to prepare themselves for the trip. When they were finally ready to leave, the little buns were already outside the house to see them off.

Ranran was in Yu Chen's arms when Luo Xiaolei came out.

"Mommy, daddy. Please be careful on your trip okay?" Little Rui said, smiling brightly. Xiaolei lifted him up and kissed him.

"We will. Be good here while we're not home, okay?"

"Mm. Grandpa called a while ago. He said he will come and play with us today. Also, big bro Juu and Kyuu are with us so don't worry about us."

Luo Xiaolei ruffled the boy's hair and kissed him again before putting him down. Ranran also hugged Yu Chen tightly before he reached out for his mother.

When little Rui hugged his daddy, the boy whispered in the man's ear.

"Daddy, good luck." He said, smiling supportively at his dad. "Uncle Wei said that you and mommy will leave today for the sake of our baby sister so I am sending you our support."
