Chapter 116: Chapter 116:

It seems the café is becoming the secret base for the uncle and nephew duo. Every time there’s something to discuss, they come here; today is no exception. Xiao Jin sits in front of his uncle, bows, and greets: “Uncle, how are you doing abroad?”

“I’m doing well.” Xiao Yu’an nods.

He’s just been doing a lot of crazy things abroad, and now he’s wanted.

No worries, he’s still alive.

“Oh, so how did you know I was feeling unwell yesterday?” Xiao Jin gets straight to the point. He has to attend class later and can’t stay at the café with his uncle for too long.

“Do you know your aunt is dating someone?” Xiao Yu’an counters.

Xiao Jin’s heart tightens, and then he starts talking nonstop like a machine gun: “What is that guy’s family background, what does he look like, what is his personality like? Is he good to my aunt? Did he have any past relationships? Is he dating my aunt for marriage or just for fun? What do his family expect from the woman?”

“Your aunt’s partner…” Xiao Yu’an starts to speak under Xiao Jin’s expectant gaze: “Is me.”

“You!!!” Xiao Jin stands up abruptly, his face tense: “No way!”

His attitude.

He sternly handles himself as Mu Ran’s elder.

Xiao Yu’an raises an eyebrow: “Why not?”

He had sensed before that Xiao Jin didn’t like him paying attention to Mu Ran, didn’t want him to meet Mu Ran. Though he didn’t know why, he didn’t really care.

Xiao Jin: “You’re ancient!”

Xiao Yu’an laughs out of irritation: “Aren’t you? You’re still the son of a feudal dynasty ruler!”

He hits right in the gut, making Xiao Jin instantly think of his unimpressive father, the Emperor.

“I’m a nephew, you’re a partner; what if you have to go back, what would my aunt do?”

“I’ve died, impossible to return.”

Even his body in Daqi should have been whipped and dismembered by the Emperor of Daqi to release anger.

Throughout history, few generals who seized the Emperor’s power met a good end.

But the people need to survive.

So he embarked on a path of no return, Xiao Yu’an doesn’t resent it, had it happened again, he’d choose the same path.

But now it’s modern times.

He wants to have the happiness he never had, his choice of partner is none of this brat’s business!

“Then you still can’t be with my aunt!”

Brother and sister can’t be together.

Xiao Jin’s brows furrow tightly, “Your thinking is different from modern people; if my aunt marries someone else, she can choose to have kids or not, but if she marries you, she must have a boy!!!”

First, uncle is ancient, with ideas of passing on the family line.

Second, uncle’s current family definitely needs an heir; that means my aunt will have to have children.

My aunt shouldn’t stay at home continuously having kids, becoming a caged bird—she should be a world-renowned director, become a soaring eagle in the boundless sky.

Thinking of Mu Ran, Xiao Yu’an never expected her to stay at home; their relationship has always been led by Mu Ran.

On the topic of children, he speaks well.

But this isn’t the reason for Xiao Jin’s opposition, Xiao Yu’an furrows his brow: “This isn’t for you to worry about. Since your aunt chose to be with me, she has her own plans.”

Xiao Jin grits his teeth.

Says nothing.

“I know you guys are together; I’ll head to school first. Uncle, take care of yourself.”

He bows, turns around, and leaves.

After getting in the car, he borrows the driver’s phone and searches online for “how to break up a lovestruck daughter and an unreliable man.”

Lots of suggestions from netizens.

[Respect and bless! Let your daughter experience hardship; don’t persuade, young people are rebellious, the more you say, the more they resist.]

[Introduce your daughter to better men, show her that there are many men better than her out there. If she’s young, consider moving and cutting ties.]

[Ha-ha, you don’t like him, so he’s a bad man, just want your daughter to find someone you approve of and give you a big bride price!]

[Hide the household registration, otherwise what can you do, but also guard against her suddenly having kids with the man, that’s scary!]

[Are there that many lovey-dovey kids?]

…

Reading the comments, Xiao Jin’s mind is a clutter. To avoid being noticed by the driver, he deletes the post, thanks the driver, and walks into the school.

“Xiao Jin, feeling better?” Teacher Liu asks with concern.

“Thank you, teacher, I’m much better.” Xiao Jin looks at her and suddenly asks: “Teacher, just heard some gossip from my driver.”

“Oh? What’s it about?” Teacher Liu asks while holding his hand back to the classroom.

“The driver’s relative is dating a close relative; because the two families have such bad relations, they never realized they were close, and now they’re ready to marry.” Xiao Jin says.

Teacher Liu shakes her head: “That’s too tragic.”

“Yeah, too tragic. If it were you, what would you do?” Xiao Jin is curious, teacher Liu is like a young girl, might as well see her ideas.

“Me? If I were involved, I’d break up sadly. If we married, it’d harm the kids; it’s really unfair to the guy to just end the love like that, very sad. If I were their parents, I wouldn’t know what to do, forcibly separate them? So pitiful.” Teacher Liu’s eyes well up: “Are all rich people siblings?”

Xiao Jin: “…”

Not sure if his aunt is lovestruck.

But he’s sure Teacher Liu is.

“Teacher, when you find someone next time, ask good friends for advice~”

“Ha, you’re like what my friend said!” Teacher Liu is surprised.

Xiao Jin: “…”

Seems Teacher Liu’s friends are good.

“Because you’re great, can’t see others’ flaws, and your friends like you, willing to play the bad guy.”

“Wow, Xiao Jin, you’re good with words!”

“Thank you, teacher.” Xiao Jin feels a bit helpless; Teacher Liu really suits being a preschool teacher.

With his reference disappearing, Xiao Jin decides he’ll test his aunt tonight, see her attitude.

But the evening disappoints him.

His aunt went out, even for dinner.

Uncle even sent him a video, naturally featuring his aunt!!!

Xiao Jin is furious, threatens via message: “If Aunt knew you’re ancient, she’d definitely break up with you!”

“Your aunt is really rebellious, she’d find me interesting; not chatting with you, your aunt has treats for me.” Xiao Yu’an replies, attaching a photo.

In the image, Mu Ran’s refined jawline is captured, along with those distinctive hands, preparing food for the person in front. Mu Ran

Xiao Jin angrily collapses on his bed, hears the learning device remind him it’s class time!

“Ah…” Xiao Jin flips off the bed and goes to his aunt’s study to start learning.
