Surrounded by the Billionaire's Deep Doting-Chapter 322 - 290: She Smiled, Leaving People Dizzy 2
"I’m a man, what’s wrong with being a little dirty?"
Bai Shunyuan said matter-of-factly. To many girls who were crazy about him, this might sound especially masculine.
But to Su Jin, it just made her want to spit on the ground.
It’s okay for a man to be dirty?
Ha... Based on what?
Bai Shunyuan didn’t notice the disdain and negative judgment Su Jin had already formed against him in her heart.
He continued, "Who taught you to weave this? What do you use it for?"
"My mom, she’s a farmer; she only knows farming work and handicrafts. Our family used to be quite poor, so we wove these to sell in the city. Kids really liked them."
"... How much can you sell these for?"
"Fifty cents each."
"How long does it take to make one?"
"About five minutes."
Su Jin answered casually. Bai Shunyuan calculated in his mind: five minutes per piece means at most twelve pieces an hour, which would be... six yuan?
And that’s assuming they all sell!
"Doesn’t sound right, does it? Making a living selling these?"
Su Jin handed him the grasshopper, glanced at him, "Nowadays, it’s priced higher. It costs five yuan each."
Su Jin smiled.
Her smile was pure and, under the sunlight, so exquisite that it was dizzying.
"Miss Su Jin, you’re here!"
Ah Su came running over, panting.
Su Jin got up from the ground, casually dusted off the dirt and grass from her body, and looked at Ah Su, "What’s the matter?"
"The master said he wants you to accompany him for a game of chess, right now at—"
"Really?"
Su Jin’s eyes lit up. Without waiting for Ah Su to answer, she ran into the house, a face that usually seemed indifferent now showed an excited expression.
Bai Shunyuan was still sitting on the ground, cluelessly looking in the direction Su Jin had left, and asked Ah Su with his head raised, "What chess?"
"Oh, Young Master Bai, it’s Go chess. This morning, Miss Su Jin played a game with the master, and now Mr. Bai is here. The master wants Miss Su Jin to accompany for another round."
Bai Shunyuan twirled the grasshopper in his hand, "Is she really good at chess?"
Ah Su scratched her head, "I’m not sure either, but she should be good. A lot of people were watching this morning when she was playing with the master."
"... Is that so."
Bai Shunyuan murmured quietly, his gaze falling on the little grasshopper in his hand.
"Where did this grasshopper come from? It’s so well-crafted. If you give it to a few young masters or young ladies, they’d surely be thrilled."
Bai Shunyuan furrowed his brows, then handed the grasshopper to Ah Su,
Ah Su’s eyes lit up as she accept it, somewhat unexpectedly.
Who knew Bai Shunyuan wouldn’t withdraw his hand immediately, still holding it out.
Ah Su was puzzled.
"Pay up, five yuan each."
Ah Su froze for a moment, looking at Bai Shunyuan’s expression, not sure if he was serious or joking.
"Young Master Bai wouldn’t—"
"Are you going to pay or not?"
"If you don’t pay, return it to me."
While speaking, Bai Shunyuan took the grasshopper back from Ah Su’s hand, then got up and walked away.
Ah Su stood there, taking a deep breath, feeling like an overwhelming power was about to erupt inside, just hoping that one slap could turn Bai Shunyuan to ashes!
Xiao Meng and Yin Shixiu were resting upstairs.
To say resting would be inaccurate, as they were also busy.
Busy changing diapers and clothes for the two little ones.
Shuangshuang wet herself without letting anyone know, so not only was her pants wet, but the bedsheet got dirty too, involving Prince Huang who did nothing wrong.
After getting everything sorted, the two little ones had almost fully woken up.
Once awake, they naturally wanted to eat.
Xiao Meng went downstairs to fetch the food prepared earlier for Shuangshuang and Huang Huang.
She noticed a crowd gathered at the bottom of the stairs again.
Heading over for a look, it turned out Su Jin was playing chess with her grandpa.
"Hahaha, that’s a great move!"
Grandpa chuckled while playing, praising, not minding that he was being pushed into a precarious position, showering Su Jin with compliments for her chess skills.
To the extent that the onlookers were getting anxious for Elder Bai, but Elder Bai himself seemed completely at ease.
Xiao Meng wanted to greet her grandpa but seeing how intense the match was, she decided against it, picked up the little ones’ dinner, and went back upstairs.
Upon opening the door, she saw her husband and children already in chaos.
Yin Shixiu sat cross-legged in the middle of the bed, with Shuangshuang climbing up his back, chanting, "High, high, high!"
Prince Huang was counting Yin Shixiu’s fingers.
"One, two... two... three... six..."
Su Xiaomeng approached, "How come three is followed by six?"
Prince Huang turned at the sound, eyes wide, looking at her... as if asking, what comes after three if not six?
"One, two, three, four, five... six... Isn’t that right, Huang Huang?"
"One, two... three... three..."
"... And then?"
"Five!"
Prince Huang held up four fingers, shouting heavily.
Su Xiaomeng took a deep breath, pulling Prince Huang over to continue teaching.
With Prince Huang distracted by counting, Shuangshuang also stopped climbing up Yin Shixiu’s neck.
With a nose like a dog, sniffing around, then crawling to the bedside, finger pointing at the meat porridge on the nightstand...
"Meal time..."
Yin Shixiu pulled Shuangshuang over, hugged her onto his lap, took the bowl for her, but didn’t expect Shuangshuang, like a little treasure, to cross her arms on her chest and shake her head.
Her body rubbed against Yin Shixiu’s chest, which probably meant...
She wanted to be fed.
Yin Shixiu spoiled his daughter endlessly.
So he obliged, scooped a spoonful of porridge, and brought it to her mouth, already eagerly open wide.
Prince Huang counting, always getting it wrong. Su Xiaomeng remained patient, but Prince Huang lost his patience first!
A heavy slap on the bed!
"Huanghuang?" 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
Xiao Meng called him.
Prince Huang didn’t want to count anymore, leaned back, fell onto the bed, limbs spread out like a star.
Like he was play-acting as dead!
Watching, Su Xiaomeng couldn’t help but feel amused.
"Alright, Huanghuang, let’s eat. Great-grandpa is downstairs. We’ll go see him after we finish eating."
Prince Huang opened his eyes. He heard Xiao Meng’s words, but pretended not to.
Lazed around for a while before being pulled up for dinner.
Shuangshuang and Huanghuang each ate a small bowl of porridge, then each took a small piece of Chung Yeung cake to gnaw on.
Xiao Meng also gave Yin Shixiu a small piece.
"I learned this from mom, try it."
It’s rare for Yin Shixiu to have such leisure time, lazily leaning against the bed, holding a soft cake piece and tasting it.
"The taste is nice."
Xiao Meng proudly smiled at him, "I knew using less sugar would get you to like it!"
Yin Shixiu reached out his arm, pulling Su Xiaomeng to lean against him.
"Careful! I’m still holding the cake!"
Xiao Meng quickly raised her hand, almost brushing against his clothes.
Yin Shixiu bent one knee, an arm around her waist, the other grabbing her hand holding the cake, bringing it to his mouth, and swallowed the remaining small cake.
Lips brushed against her slender fingers.
Xiao Meng quickly withdrew her fingers. After spending so much time together, just one look from this man, and she knew what he was thinking!
Shuangshuang and Huanghuang were playing at the foot of the bed.
The two small pieces of cake in their little hands seemed to be able to perform a play.
I’ll give you a bite, you give me a bite.
Shuangshuang loved clinging to Huanghuang, who always looked reluctant but eventually went along with his sister.
The commotion from their parents seemed a bit much, attracting curious glances from the two little ones.
"Shuangshuang, don’t waste; finish your cake."
Xiao Meng spoke up, then propped herself up from Yin Shixiu’s embrace.
But Shuangshuang not only ignored Xiao Meng’s words, she also looked enviously at Xiao Meng lying in Dad’s arms.
Her chubby hands supported the mattress, jumped, then ran a couple of steps towards Yin Shixiu, and then—
"Ouch!"
Shuangshuang mischievously shouted and then threw her whole body onto Yin Shixiu.
That hit, like a collision of celestial bodies, even with Yin Shixiu’s developed chest muscles, he couldn’t withstand the little princess smashing into him...
"Baby, how are you so heavy? About to get hurt by your bump..."
"Hehehe..."
Shuangshuang kept giggling, looking up to see Dad might really be hurt by the bump, and pretended to be very concerned.
The round little face approached, puffing cheeks and blowing at Yin Shixiu’s chest.
"Does it hurt?"
After blowing for quite a while, she broke out in a sweat, playfully asking Yin Shixiu.
This scene made Yin Shixiu inexplicably touched...
This was his daughter...
A bit mischievous in nature, but sometimes really heartwarming.
Yin Shixiu pinched Shuangshuang under her armpits and lifted the little chubby girl high.
"Ah... hahaha!"
Shuangshuang was very brave, lifted high without fear, waving the chubby little hands and feet.
From a glance, she looked like a little turtle.
The little girl kept laughing, enjoying her father’s company.
Up high and down again, excitement growing more intense.
But Su Xiaomeng couldn’t help but feel speechless—
No matter how excited she played, the small cake in her chubby hands was tightly clenched.
This food-loving nature, so persistent and obdurate.
In this regard, Prince Huang was much more obedient; seeing Yin Shixiu playing with Shuangshuang, saying he wasn’t a bit envious would be a lie.
But Prince Huang sidelong glanced at Yin Shixiu and Shuangshuang, then looked at the snack in his own hand.
Finally chose to obediently munch away there.
After finishing, he was about to throw himself into his father’s arms too when a gentle knock on the door sounded.
Xiao Meng went to open the door, her gaze went from above to below, seeing little Yin Junjie standing at the door.
"Little nanny..."
"Junjie? Is there something you need?"
Su Xiaomeng didn’t expect Yin Junjie to seek them out, she crouched down, asking quietly.
Yin Shixiu slipped on slippers and walked over, seeing Yin Junjie’s little face looking a bit troubled, he said, "Come in."
