Chapter 150

Before Mother Yang finished cooking, someone came.

Everyone was seated and chatting away when the doorbell rang. The helper went to open the door. Lin Zi Rui saw a girl holding something in her hand as she entered after the helper.

“Xiao Lin, why did you come here?” Father Yang seemed to recognise this girl as he called her ‘Xiao Lin’ the moment he noticed her.

“Oh, Uncle, just as you left, my dad remembered that he forgot to pass you something, so he asked me to bring it to you.” The girl named Xiao Lin walked into the living room. Although she was talking to Father Yang, her line of sight kept going back to Yang Shao Yu.

“Your dad sure is forgetful. Come, take a seat.” Father Yang received the item and invited Xiao Lin to sit.

Xiao Lin heard and immediately went to sit next to Yang Shao Yu.

“Long time no see, Xiao Lin. Do you have a boyfriend yet?” Elder Brother Yang asked.

“Not yet. I haven’t met anyone I like.” Xiao Lin was a little embarrassed.

Lin Zi Rui looked at Xiao Lin and guessed that she might be the daughter of dad’s friend. Furthermore, they1 had a good relationship with the Yang family.

“Zi Rui, this is the daughter of dad’s friend, she’s called Chu Xiao Lin.” Father Yang knew that Lin Zi Rui didn’t recognise her so he introduced her.

“Hello, I’m Lin Zi Rui.” Lin Zi Rui greeted Chu Xiao Lin.

“Hello, I am Chu Xiao Lin, Brother Shao Yu’s childhood sweetheart.” Chu Xiao Lin looked at Lin Zi Rui curiously.

Brother Shao Yu? Lin Zi Rui heard this address and eyed Yang Shao Yu uneasily, then saw Chu Xiao Lin sitting very close to Yang Shao Yu. He frowned even harder, then relaxed again. Really, what was he trying to do calculating against a young lady? He was so petty. But, childhood sweethearts? Lin Zi Rui couldn’t help glancing at Yang Shao Yu again.

Yang Shao Yu took every action of Lin Zi Rui into his eyes and felt delighted in his heart. Zi Rui must be feeling jealous. Although happy, he and Chu Xiao Lin had absolutely nothing going on and wanted to explain to Lin Zi Rui. But before he could, Mother Yang had finished cooking and called for everyone to wash their hands and get ready to eat.

Since Yang Shao Yu had no chance to explain now, he decided that he would just explain to Lin Zi Rui after the meal.

As the meal was ready, Father Yang said, “Xiao Lin, stay for lunch today.”

Chu Xiao Lin had planned to eat lunch at home but since she finally got to see Yang Shao Yu who rarely came home, she nodded, “Alright.”

Everyone took a seat. Lin Zi Rui naturally sat together with Yang Shao Yu and Chu Xiao Lin sat on the other side of Yang Shao Yu.

Perhaps Father Yang caught a lot of fish, the majority of Mother Yang’s dishes were fish based.

Fish stew, sweet and sour fish, and many other types of varieties.

“Come, try the fish stew first. It’s not at all fishy and it is very fresh.” The first thing Yang Shao Yu did after sitting at the table was to serve Lin Zi Rui a bowl of fish stew.

Lin Zi Rui actually rather liked to drink soup, but especially did not like drinking fish soup. He found that fish soup just doesn’t taste good, but because it was cooked by Mother Yang, he wanted to try a bowl.

Yang Shao Yu obviously knew that Lin Zi Rui didn’t fancy fish soup, but his mom’s fish stew was really delicious. Zi Rui might like this taste, so he decided to scoop him a bowl.

Lin Zi Rui drank one mouthful and didn’t expect it to be so delicious. He couldn’t resist taking another mouthful.

“How’s it? Good, right?” Yang Shao Yu saw that Lin Zi Rui liked it so he wanted to scoop another bowl for him in a while.

“En. It’s really yummy.” Mother Yang heard Lin Zi Rui’s words and couldn’t stop her smile. “Eat the rest too. You are too skinny.”

As she said, she personally placed a piece of meat on Lin Zi Rui’s plate.

Yang Shao Yu also took one prawn for him, deshelled it, dipped it in the sauce, then personally fed it into Lin Zi Rui’s mouth.

Chu Xiao Lin saw the gentle and caring actions of Yang Shao Yu and saw the friendly attitude of the Yang family. She couldn’t help but be curious about Lin Zi Rui’s identity. Were they really just purely friends? She endured and endured again, and finally asked Yang Shao Yu after seeing how he deboned the fish for Lin Zi Rui, “Brother Shao Yu, are you two good friends?”

Yang Shao Yu wanted to directly tell her about their relationship but the Yang Xiao De sitting next to Chu Xiao Lin beat him to it as he answered, “No, he isn’t Uncle’s friend. He is my Aunt.”

Lin Zi Rui, who was eating his fish halfway, was stunned. The fish he picked up almost fell back onto his plate. It was still Yang Shao Yu who recovered first as he rubbed Yang Xiao De’s head.

“Aunt?” Chu Xiao Lin hadn’t processed the meaning of it.

“Yeah, he is Uncle’s wife, so Xiao De has to call him Aunt.”

Yang Xiao De thought that Chu Xiao Lin didn’t understand his words, so he helped her explain it in detail.

“Au, Aunt? What, what is this?” Chu Xiao Lin was sure that she wasn’t near-sighted. Wasn’t Lin Zi Rui a man?

“Zi Rui is my lover.” Yang Shao Yu told Chu Xiao Lin directly.

Chu Xiao Yu doubted that she was awake. How did Brother Shao Yu get a girl, no, boyfriend in just this time of not meeting?

“Brother Shao Yu, he, isn’t he a male?” Chu Xiao Lin almost couldn’t remain seated.

“What’s the difference even if he is a man? I thought that I wouldn’t fall in love with anyone, but Zi Rui appeared and I couldn’t help but like him, love him, and be unable to leave him.” Yang Shao Yu said this for the whole family to hear.

Lin Zi Rui silently held onto Yang Shao Yu’s hand at the side.

The Yang family didn’t speak a word for a while. It was Father Yang who started, “Zi Rui is also our child.”

This sentence directly indicated Lin Zi Rui’s position in the Yang family’s heart. He was also part of the Yang family’s children.

Although he knew that Shao Yu’s family had long accepted him, this sentence really made Lin Zi Rui incredibly touched, his nose was all sour and tears were about to fall out.

“Yeah, our child. Eat more, the dishes are about to get cold.” Mother Yang smiled warmly at Lin Zi Rui.

Elder Brother Yang and Elder Sister Yang smiled too. They had a new family member. This was an incredibly great feeling.

“En. Mom, dad, have more too.” Lin Zi Rui picked up some of Mother and Father Yang’s favourite food and served them.

Chu Xiao Lin really couldn’t sit any longer. She basically had no game. She silently ate her meal, then left after that.

Mother and Father Yang didn’t stop her, thinking that the young girl must be feeling very sad right now.
