CHAPTER 128: CHAPTER 128: LET’S CALL IT EVEN

"Okay, Auntie, we want the same phone as brother!"

"Sure, Auntie will buy it for you next time."

"Auntie, we want it now!" Little Su Luo said.

"Can we buy it today, Auntie?" Little Su Hua also said.

Su Xingwan: "..."

These two little ones are quite sharp, are they afraid she’ll trick them?

Since she got up late and had nothing else to do, she agreed to take them shopping later to buy the phones.

Hearing Auntie agree, the two little ones stood on the chair and danced happily.

Su Xingwan was afraid they might fall, so she quickly told them to get down.

Once they were down, Little Su Yan made a request: "Auntie, I also want a laptop."

Su Xingwan: "..."

The two little ones’ eyes lit up.

"Auntie! We want one too; we can watch a lot of cartoons on it!"

Su Xingwan: "..."

She really found it hard to treat them equally!

To prevent them from getting too addicted to electronics.

She refused: "No, you already have phones, so no laptops."

Little Su Yan sighed: "Okay."

The two little ones rested their chins on their hands, looking helpless: "Okay."

"Then Auntie will buy it for us next time!" the two little ones said again.

Su Xingwan: "..."

Before long, she heard Little Su Yan’s video call tone ringing.

"What are you three little rascals doing?"

It was Ye Yixing calling.

Ever since Little Su Yan got a phone, Ye Yixing added his number and WeChat, and the uncle and nephew chatted quite a bit in private.

But today was the first time they had a video call conversation.

"Uncle Ye! Uncle Lu!"

In the video, two handsome uncles appeared.

When Su Xingwan heard the term "Uncle Lu," she paused in her dishwashing.

Her mind couldn’t help but recall what he said on WeChat last night.

"What are you little rascals eating?"

"Dumplings, Auntie cooked them!"

"Did you finish them all? Were you picky?"

"We ate them all! We’re not picky eaters!"

"So well-behaved!"

"We’re Auntie’s good babies!" the two little ones said with glowing smiles.

Ye Yixing gave them a thumbs-up.

"Oh, where’s your Auntie? Why isn’t she around?" he suddenly asked.

"Auntie’s in the kitchen washing dishes!" Little Su Luo said.

Then Little Su Yan aimed the phone camera at Auntie.

Lu Yun saw Su Xingwan standing in the kitchen with her back to them.

She was wearing a thin set of light blue sleepwear, her lightly yellowish curls pinned up, revealing a fair and delicate neck.

She wore an apron, slightly bending over, seriously scrubbing the stains in the sink.

Soon, Ye Yixing’s voice in his ear brought him back to reality.

"Are you guys off today?"

"Yeah, we’re off."

"Isn’t your Auntie going to the filming set today?"

"Auntie slept in today, so she’s not going to the set."

"...Oh, I see," Ye Yixing said meaningfully.

He laughed, "Do you want to come to Uncle Lu’s company to play today?"

"If Auntie goes, we’ll go!"

"Then why don’t you ask your Auntie?" Ye Yixing said with a gleeful smile.

Suddenly, the two little ones remembered something.

"We can’t go today; Auntie said she’d take us shopping later!"

"Shopping? Are you going out for fun?"

"Yeah, Auntie’s taking us to buy new phones!" the two little ones said happily.

Ye Yixing with a smile, suggested, "How about I drive you there?"

"Okay!" the two little ones agreed in unison, completely unaware they had ratted Auntie out.

Su Xingwan walked over this time, calmly looking at the two men in the video.

"Ye Yixing, there’s no need for trouble with me and the little ones shopping," she said.

Ye Yixing: "Su Xingwan, don’t say that. We’re family to the little ones, so it’s only natural to give them a ride, isn’t it?"

Su Xingwan was a bit silent.

If it were before, she naturally wouldn’t mind.

But since last night’s events...

She didn’t know why, but now she felt somewhat reluctant to face that Mr. Lu.

The three little ones were puzzled: "Auntie, why don’t you let Uncle Ye take us?"

Su Xingwan asked, "Do you want Uncle Ye to give you a ride?"

The three little ones nodded.

"Yeah, we want Uncle Ye to go shopping with us!"

Su Xingwan couldn’t stop the three little ones from wanting to be with their uncles.

So she said, "Alright then."

"Yay!" the two little ones cheered happily.

Ye Yixing: Little rascals, once your Uncle Lu and Auntie get together, you three will be the biggest heroes of the Lu Family.

Before long, Ye Yixing and Lu Yun drove over.

Today was a day off, so Xu Xiao didn’t come along. He stayed home with his wife and children.

This time, when Su Xingwan got into the car, it felt noticeably more spacious.

The three little ones played around in the car, occasionally chatting with Ye Yixing.

While Lu Yun and Su Xingwan were both quite silent.

At that moment, a message buzzed on her WeChat.

She opened it; it was from Mr. Lu.

[Did yesterday’s incident trouble you?]

Su Xingwan hesitated about how to respond.

Soon after, another message came from him.

[If it caused you any trouble, I apologize.]

Su Xingwan inexplicably remembered the previous times she apologized to him.

[It’s okay.] She replied.

[Let’s call it even.] She added.

Lu Yun: [What did Ye Yixing tell you last night?]

When Su Xingwan saw this message, she hesitated again.

So Ye Yixing didn’t tell them the content of their chat last night?

She also thought about how Mr. Lu willingly made such a big sacrifice for the three little ones...

Lu Yun noticed she hadn’t replied and sent another message.

[If you don’t want to say, you don’t have to.]

[No matter what Ye Yixing told you, don’t let it bother you.]

Su Xingwan: [Okay.]

Then they stopped chatting.

Arriving at the bustling main street, they were already familiar with the place.

Once they got out of the car, they headed straight to the big mall to look at phones.

The two little ones were thrilled because they were getting new phones.

At the phone store, Su Xingwan asked the clerk about Little Su Yan’s model of phone.

The clerk immediately took them to see it.

The two little ones, seeing the new phone, excitedly asked, "Is it the same as brother’s phone?"

Su Xingwan smiled, "Yes, it’s the same."

She prepared to pay.

But Ye Yixing paid first.

"You got Little Su Yan a phone; his two phones are on me and cousin," he said.

Su Xingwan didn’t argue, as the uncles buying phones for their nephews and nieces seemed right.

If she had blocked it, she would have been the unreasonable aunt.

Ye Yixing: "So what should we do afterward? We can’t go back so soon, can we? It’s still early for dinner. How about we find something fun to do?"

Lu Yun looked at her: "Miss Su, do you want to look at some clothes?"

"Look at clothes?"

"Yes, Miss Su, haven’t you bought clothes from here before?"

Su Xingwan thought, how did he know?

She used to buy clothes online, and after she started endorsing products, the clothes were from sponsors, so she hadn’t bought clothes herself in a while.
