CHAPTER 53: CHAPTER 53: YES, IT FEELS LIKE A CRUSH

A string in the heart was gently plucked, lightly, yet it leapt into an unsettled melody, making one’s heart itch. Yes! It seems like... a heartbeat.

"Big, big, big, big uncle..." Rong Jing snapped back to his senses, not angry, but slowly chewed over this nickname.

Su Xiaomeng slightly raised her eyebrows. No matter what, compared to Rong Jing, she still felt more comfortable with the uncle! Yeah! So she was right to defend him!

"Alright then!" Rong Jing shrugged, with a hint of amusement in his eyes as he looked at her, "From now on, you must call me Big, big, big, big uncle! Don’t you dare use one less or one more ’big’!"

"Alright! Big, big, big, big uncle!"

Su Xiaomeng’s eyebrows arched even higher.

For a moment, two pairs of eyes met intensely in the air, like opponents locking horns, with a do-or-die momentum, one pair of mischievous big eyes, and one pair of narrow phoenix eyes.

"Have you eaten?"

Yin Shixiu broke the silence.

"Nope, specifically came over to scrounge a meal."

Su Xiaomeng’s eyebrows furrowed again, and this subtle expression was caught by Rong Jing, "What? Can’t let big, big, big, big uncle have a meal?"

She raised her chin, marched into the kitchen, and brought out an extra set of dishes and placed them in front of him, "Big, big, big, big uncle! Enjoy your meal!"

Yin Shixiu chuckled softly, childishly, yet adorably childlike.

"So, what are you here for?"

After the three finally settled, Yin Shixiu asked.

Rong Jing picked up a piece of meat, stuffed it into his mouth, and mumbled while chewing, "My sister has taken a liking to you and sent me to make a connection."

Su Xiaomeng’s freshly picked-up piece of meat fell back onto her plate.

Yin Shixiu said nothing, and calmly lifted the fallen piece of meat back into Su Xiaomeng’s bowl.

"Brother Shixiu, you’ve met my sister before, you—"

"When eating, don’t talk and sleep, just eat."

Yin Shixiu’s voice cooled by two degrees, and Rong Jing glanced at the little girl who was quietly eating her rice, smirking slightly.

Su Xiaomeng buried her head in her meal, but clearly, the food in front of her was not attracting her as it had before. She hadn’t eaten much before standing up and leaving the table. Yin Shixiu didn’t need her to clean up, so she went back to her room.

What do you mean don’t talk while eating and sleep? It’s just that they were talking, and it was inconvenient for her to listen in.

After closing the door, Su Xiaomeng cast aside the subtle emotions she couldn’t distinguish, washed up, and lay on her bed to play on WeChat, surf QQ, check on the situation of her club, and understand the examination situation of various subjects.

Having thought that she was possessed by the sleep god, she would fall asleep quickly, but things went contrary to her wishes. She tossed and turned... full of curiosity about the situation outside the room.

Someone wants to introduce a girlfriend to the uncle, hmm, what kind of person might that be?

Su Xiaomeng, what does that have to do with you!

She had no idea that the conversation between the two in the living room wasn’t going well.

"An alliance with the Rong Family would be beneficial for you with no harm. I thought even if you didn’t accept, you’d at least carefully consider it before making a decision."

"Is that why you came here today?"

"Hm, and to catch up?"

"Then you can leave now."

Rong Jing narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Is this an order to leave?"

Yin Shixiu neither confirmed nor denied.

Rong Jing was used to his attitude, stood up, tidied his clothes, glanced at Su Xiaomeng’s room, and suddenly hinted, "Since that girl is Yin Meng’s classmate, then... introduce her to me, will you?"

"..." Yin Shixiu’s eagle-like eyes suddenly flashed with sharpness, silently falling on Rong Jing’s face.

"She is really quite cute and happens to be the type I like. What’s her name?"
