CHAPTER 126: CHAPTER 126: UNCLE IS WILLING

Suddenly, Lu Yun spoke up, "Uncle is willing."

With those words, Ye Yixing and Su Xingwan looked at him in shock.

Xu Xiao was also surprised.

Although he had vaguely noticed that Mr. Lu had a bit of interest in Miss Su.

But to say it directly in front of Miss Su was something he hadn’t expected.

Without even starting to pursue her.

He openly expressed his willingness to marry Miss Su.

All he could say was that he deeply admired Mr. Lu.

Ye Yixing’s mouth was agape, big enough to fit an egg.

"Cous... Cousin, you’re not joking, are you?"

This joke was not funny at all.

But Su Xingwan said, "Mr. Lu, you don’t have to make such a big sacrifice for the three little ones."

At that moment, Ye Yixing was thinking the same.

Rather than saying his cousin liked Su Xingwan, it seemed he was more considering the future of the three little ones.

Lu Yun remained silent and didn’t speak.

The three little ones didn’t understand the complicated emotions between adults.

They looked at their aunt cheerfully, their eyes sparkling, "Auntie, uncle is willing, are you willing too?"

Su Xingwan stared at the three little ones with eyes full of expectation and felt the pair of cold, indifferent eyes fixed on her.

Could it be that she also had to make sacrifices for the three little ones?

She was conflicted inside.

Facing the eyes of the three little ones eager for an answer.

She felt she didn’t love the three little ones as much as their uncle did.

Su Xingwan neither refused nor agreed.

Ye Yixing roughly understood her intentions.

He helped her out by saying, "You shouldn’t pester your auntie for answers. Marriage involves your auntie liking your uncle, right?"

Two of the little ones said, "Auntie likes him, right?"

Su Xingwan blushed.

She quickly said, "Auntie’s kind of liking isn’t the kind you are talking about."

The two little ones were perplexed.

Why didn’t they understand what auntie meant?

Liking is just liking, how could it be different?

Lu Yun suddenly spoke casually, "It’s late, let’s go home."

Su Xingwan’s heart suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

She truly didn’t know how to answer that question.

As she sat in the car on the way home, Su Xingwan never thought, how did the conversation suddenly lead to talk about her marriage plans?

However, Ye Yixing was right.

She had never considered her own problems, nor contemplated the future issues of the three little ones.

But...

If their mother was found.

Would it solve everything?

She wouldn’t need to face the pitiful looks from the three little ones anymore.

Because she indeed softened so easily towards them.

She worried that she might agree for the future of the three little ones with just a moment of tenderness.

There was a silence in the car, Su Xingwan thought about it and took out her phone, opened WeChat, and sent a message to Mr. Lu.

[Sorry about earlier, Mr. Lu.]

This time, Su Xingwan deliberately turned off the notification feature for message alerts on WeChat.

But Lu Yun didn’t turn his off.

His phone chimed once, then he saw her message.

He typed: [You don’t need to apologize.]

Su Xingwan saw his reply, just a few simple words, and they felt very stiff.

She hesitated about whether to send an emoji back.

Suddenly, he sent another message.

[Do you think I want to marry you because of the three little ones?]

Su Xingwan’s heart skipped a beat when she saw this message.

What did he mean by this?

Her typing hand trembled slightly.

[Isn’t it?]

This time, the other side didn’t reply for a long time.

Sitting in the front, Ye Yixing heard his cousin’s phone keep chiming behind him. He turned his head and saw Su Xingwan beside him, head lowered, playing on her phone.

Curious: "Could it be that you two are secretly messaging each other again?"

Su Xingwan paused.

Ye Yixing saw her expression and knew he had guessed right.

He laughed, "Seems like you and my cousin are quite familiar with each other in private?"

Su Xingwan wanted to wave her hand but didn’t know what to say.

She thought next time when messaging Mr. Lu, she definitely shouldn’t do it in front of Ye Yixing.

"Am I wrong? I’ve caught you two twice already; who knows how many times you’ve chatted privately."

Su Xingwan: "..."

"I just happened to catch you twice."

Ye Yixing raised an eyebrow.

"So unlucky?"

Su Xingwan just smiled.

Ye Yixing: "Alright, alright. But this shows that your relationship with my cousin is pretty good."

Soon, the car arrived at her building downstairs.

The three little ones jumped out of the car excitedly.

Then politely said goodbye to the three uncles in the car.

When Su Xingwan was about to head upstairs with the three little ones.

Ye Yixing got out of the car and called her.

"Su Xingwan, wait a moment, I have something to discuss with you!"

Su Xingwan was puzzled.

Ye Yixing: "Let’s talk inside."

"Alright."

Once inside, Su Xingwan sent the three little ones to the bedroom to sleep.

In the living room, Ye Yixing said, "Su Xingwan, are you a bit afraid of my cousin?"

Su Xingwan was a bit startled.

She hadn’t expected him to bring this up.

She lowered her gaze a bit, "Yeah, a little."

The image of the ruthless, cold-hearted uncle in the novel was still vivid in her mind, otherwise she wouldn’t have immediately tried to get along well with the three little ones when she first crossed over; of course, later on, her feelings for the three little ones were indeed genuine, she truly liked them without any pretense.

The reason Ye Yixing suddenly asked her this.

Was because he had been sitting in the car, pondering the events that had just happened.

He was a bit late to realize that perhaps his cousin did have some feelings for Su Xingwan.

Ye Yixing wasn’t bothered: "It’s normal to be afraid, not just girls, many guys are too, like me, haha."

Su Xingwan listened to him and chuckled.

"By the way, do you really have no feelings for my cousin?" Ye Yixing threw out another question.

Su Xingwan paused.

"Why are you asking this?"

Ye Yixing sighed, "Actually, my cousin is quite pitiful. Although he is a child of the Lu Family, he was ignored by the Lu Family since childhood. Everyone’s attention was focused on his older cousin, cultivating him to become the next head of the Lu Family, while my cousin was not only ignored but also suffered a lot in his youth. Although he’s good-looking, no girls liked him, and his personality isn’t as delightful as the older cousin’s, though they seem estranged publicly, they actually care for each other privately."

Su Xingwan was silent.

Lu Zhichen is the male lead in the novel, with a halo around him, naturally outstanding in all aspects and well-liked.

However, Lu Yun is so good-looking, the fact that no girls pursued him is hard for her to believe.

"There’s no way he doesn’t have girls who like him, right?"

Ye Yixing raised an eyebrow, "Have you ever seen any female admirers around my cousin?"

Su Xingwan paused, "It seems not."

"Right? I even worry about my cousin’s future happiness. He doesn’t accept arranged marriages within the family."

Listening to him, Su Xingwan felt strangely off; why was Ye Yixing telling her these things?

"And, those girls not only dare not approach my cousin, but my cousin’s mouth is also quite venomous."

Su Xingwan was slightly stunned, "I didn’t notice that?"
