My Youth Began With Him

“Support how?” Huo Mian smiled.

“Do you think you and Brother-in-Law can create an opportunity for me and Bella to go on a business trip, just the two of us? If you can, that’d be perfect,” Zhixin said with a bright smile on his face.

“Why don’t you go to hell? Just the two of you? Wouldn’t it be easier for your Brother-in-Law to just make her marry you?” Huo Mian glared.

“If Brother-in-Law can do it, I’d obviously prefer that instead.”

“Don’t be so shameless and just go to bed.” Huo Mian smiled and lightly pinched Zhixin’s nose.

Then she put on her slippers and went upstairs…

Before Huo Mian went back to her own room, she went to the twins’ room to check on them.

The twins loved to play building blocks and dolls on the floor. Her mother was sitting in a corner and knitting a sweater.

Huo Mian looked at the three cute children and asked, “Tiantian, are you tired? If you’re tired, you should go to bed now.”

Huo Mian was very gentle to her friend, Huo Yanyan’s, daughter.

“Auntie, I’m not tired yet. I want to play a bit more…” Tiantian said in a soft voice.

“Okay, but don’t stay up too late. You can go with them to their dance class tomorrow. I got you a pretty dress too.”

“Thank you, Auntie.” Tiantian was very polite.

“Mommy, don’t be so fussy. You’re still in your late 20s but you’re giving me the illusion that you’re having your menopause now…”

Huo Mian: “…”

“Mommy, goodnight. Bye bye. Sleep tight… If you sleep too late, you will get wrinkles and turn ugly. Daddy won’t love you when you turn ugly and you won’t be able to give us a little brother…” Little Bean’s words were a lot more brutal than Pudding’s.

Huo Mian’s face flushed when she heard the twins’ words. She really didn’t know what to do with them.

“You two can’t talk to adults like this. Little Bean, especially you! If I hear you say anything dirty again, you’ll hear from me…”

“Fine, fine… I was just joking with you. Can you not be so serious?” Little Bean immediately said something to pacify the situation.

– In the study room –

Qin Ning and Qin Chu were in their workaholic mode.

First, they had a web conference with Qin Ning’s father, who was at the American headquarters and made a few big decisions for the company.

Then, Qin Chu got out the newest company strategy plan out to discuss with Qin Ning so they could make final edits together.

When they finished, it was already past eleven.

“It’s late. We should continue tomorrow. Let’s get some rest,” Qin Chu looked at his little cousin and said.

“Bro, you’re really a workaholic. I came here to spend time with my nieces but you dragged me right into work mode… You’re usurping my private time, man… *sigh*… I sure have a rough life.”

“You think I don’t know? You’re a workaholic yourself. You enjoy work. I’m just giving you a chance to appeal to yourself. You should thank me…” Qin Chu joked.

“Wow Bro. You are actually humorous now. Looks like my sis-in-law has her ways to tame you…”

“Nonsense. I’m the one taming your sis-in-law, not the other way around…” Qin Chu smirked.

Right then, something came up on Qin Ning’s mind so she asked, “Chu, are you familiar with Su Yu?”

“Why bring him up all of a sudden?” Qin Chu never was able to articulate how he thought of Su Yu. He couldn’t tell if Su Yu was his friend or enemy or something else…

“Of course it’s because of your beloved daughters. They’ve been whispering ‘Su Yu this, Su Yu that’ in my ear… I’m curious what Su Yu is like?”

“He’s probably not a good match for you,” Qin Chu slowly said, after thinking for a while.

For some uncertain reason, Qin Ning was rather disappointed when Qin Chu said that.

She wasn’t quite satisfied with the answer so she asked, “Why do you say that? Why do you think we’re not a good match?”
