Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty

It wasn’t weird that a daughter had found her protection in her father’s arms. As for Little Bao, he was holding Jie’s finger tightly in his fists as per his habit. Xu Mey’s father told her that it was Little Bao’s unconditional trust in his father. That little one didn’t like using his words from a young age but he would show his trust and support like this.

Xu Mey was in awe as she stared a while longer at her perfect little family. She didn’t even know why tears had pooled in her eyes but she was really overwhelmed to see this peaceful scene. Holding her tears back, she went back to her room and came back with her cellphone.

Keeping her tears from falling, she clicked a couple of photos and gushed over how cute her family was. She even took a selfie to add herself to this beautiful family.

She opened the group chat and sent the photos with a caption, "Look what I woke up to. Don’t I have the most adorable family in the world?"

She dropped her phone in the front pocket of her apron and took a long and deep breath before putting on a front of a stern mother.

She picked up the alarm clock and blared its annoying sound close to the sleeping trio as she shouted, "How long are you lazy people gonna sleep for? The sun is at its peak already. Get out of bed."

Jie was the first one to open his eyes as he rubbed his ear to stop that irksome sound from entering his ears. As he sat up, both Little Bao and Little Juan also got up. Little Bao was rubbing his eyes adorably as he always did while Little Juan was staring at her mother with a narrowed gaze.

Pulling off the duvet, Little Juan stood up on the bed to match her mother’s height and said, "Mom," her voice was sickly sweet before it changed into a low whisper, "Find a new way to wake people up. You don’t always have to ruin my morning with that irritating sound. It’s getting old now."

Patting her mother’s shoulder, she sat back on the bed and leaned in her father’s arms saying, "Look, Dad, it’s Saturday and your wife has come to spoil my beauty sleep again. This is not fair!"

Jie smiled at her and rubbed her head saying, "She’s not just my wife, she’s your mother as well."

Little Bao gave his father a hug and got off the bed to give his mother a hug. Even though he didn’t say a word, his embrace was enough to show his emotions. Before turning towards the bathroom, he looked at his sister and said, "Juanjuan, is it necessary to always call mom as dad’s wife when you’re angry with her? That’s also getting old."

Little Juan pointed at her brother and shouted, "Bro, you can’t do this! I’m your only sister, you better be on my side. It’s my birthright."

Little Bao didn’t look back at her and went to freshen up. As for Little Juan, she crossed her arms over her chest and pouted.

"My drama queen, stop brooding. If you frown like this, you’ll get wrinkles at an early age." Xu Mey shook Little Juan gently with affection.

Little Juan touched her face and looked at Xu Mey. "Mom, will I really get wrinkles?" Xu Mey nodded with a sad look as if it really was a pity. "No, no. Juan can’t have any wrinkles. I’m gonna go check in the mirror." She ran off to the door that connected to her room.

"Lying to your own daughter? Isn’t that bad parenting?" Jie’s voice broke Xu Mey’s amused look.

She stared at Jie and said, "Who lied? I was merely stating a fact." As she saw Jie rolling his eyes at her, she added, "By the way, I asked you to sleep in the guest room. How did you come here?"

Jie got up to hug her shoulders from behind and said, "I missed you so much that I couldn’t sleep."

"It didn’t seem like it," Xu Mey spoke in derision.

"That’s why I came here," Jie’s word made Xu Mey curious as she waited for him to continue, "Since kids are said to be a reflection of their parents. I came here to find your vibes in our kids. That’s the only reason why I was sleeping so peacefully."

Although Xu Mey knew he was lying, she still couldn’t say anything. His excuse was really amusing. And in a way, she was fine with it as she leaned back in his arms and asked, "Did they disturb you?"

"We have the best kids in the world. Just like their mother, they never disturb me at all," said Jie.

Xu Mey tilted her head to look at him and said, "You’re right, they don’t have to be a handful for you. I’m alone a handful enough for you."

Xu Mey elbowed him before getting out of his arms and added, "Freshen up. Azalea is coming today and you have to pick her from the airport as well."

"Oh... I totally forgot about that. But I think I don’t have to pick her up," said Jie.

"Why not?"

Jie wiggled his brows at her and said, "Because she already has someone who will be waiting for her for hours by now. I’m afraid, he might have camped out at the airport for her."

Xu Mey slapped Jie’s arm and said, "Aren’t you amused by that? That’s called love which has given him the strength to wait for hours without complaining. Unlike you who is always impatient."

As she left him baffled, he whispered, "What did I do now? Why am I the wrong one again?"
