My Youth Began With Him

“My goodness. Handsome Su cried again. He’s really good at crying… Is he a crybaby?” Little Bean said.

“Handsome Su cries because he’s happy to see Mom back. He’s super happy,” said Pudding.

“It looks like a dam has broken… So many tears. In the three-plus years since I came into this world, I’ve never seen Handsome Su cry his eyes out.”

“Me neither,” Pudding agreed.

The sisters reached an agreement, which was unusual for them.

Qin Chu didn’t know if he should cry or laugh as he wondered if the two little devils were really his daughters.

“Stop crying. You’re not a child. Shame on you!” Huo Mian couldn’t bear it anymore. If Su Yu continued crying, she’d cry, too.

Pulling out more tissue, she wiped at his face roughly.

“Damn it… What are you doing? You’ll ruin my make-up!”

“Make-up? You’re a man; you put on make-up?” Huo Mian almost spewed out blood.

“I had an interview at the TV station this morning. The damned make-up girl patted flour all over my face,” Su Yu complained.

Huo Mian laughed. “It was powder foundation!”

“I don’t know what it was. It felt sticky… If you ruined it, my face would be a mess.”

“It’s a mess right now.”

“Ah? Really? I’ll go to the washroom and wash my face.”

Then, he rushed into the washroom.

Huo Mian returned to her husband and daughters.

“Honey, now that we’re here, shall we have lunch here?”

“Good! Good! Mom, you must try the ice cream in this restaurant. It’s delicious!” Little Bean recommended.

“Okay. We’ll return home after lunch. No one else knows we’re back yet,” Qin Chu said.

Rushing into the washroom, Su Yu splashed water onto his face repeatedly.

After a long while, the cold water finally woke up his stunned brain and he could fully process the fact that Mian was back.

She had come back safe; she didn’t die or get wounded; she didn’t vanish.

She just appeared before him with her elegant face and a faint smile.

Remembering this sight, Su Yu still had the urge to cry.

Calming down his emotions, he finally regained his composure.

Looking at his image in the mirror, he murmured to himself, “It’s great she’s back; it’s great she’s back.”

When he came out, he saw the family of four sitting at the table.

“Handsome Su, come here.” Little Bean beckoned at him warmly.

“Mian’s return is something to be celebrated. We can’t eat here. Let’s go; I’ll arrange something fancy,” Su Yu suggested.

“It’s not necessary. This is good for me. Sit down and eat with us,” Huo Mian invited him with a smile.

“Come, Handsome Su. You must sit between me and my sister. If you sit by my mom, my dad would be jealous; if you sat by my dad, my mom would be jealous; if you sat by my sister, I’d be jealous. So, you must sit between us.” Little Bean was an eloquent speaker.

Hearing her words, everyone laughed.

Without further ado, Su Yu took the seat between the twins.

Qin Chu picked up the menu and ordered more dishes; the five of them chatted over the meal.

Qin Chu told the whole thing to Su Yu briefly, but due to the presence of the kids, he omitted many bloody scenes.

“Then… Where’s that bastard Huo Siqian?” Su Yu asked.

“He’s already under my control.”

“Why didn’t you cut him into eight pieces and dump them into a wolfhound’s kennel?” Su Yu hated Huo Siqian’s guts.
