A New Addition (232)

After dinner, Youyou was about to return to his room when Gong Jie suddenly put his arm around the boy's shoulders and asked, "What do you do in your room every day? Meditate?"0

Youyou slapped the man's hand away and glared at him, as if giving him a silent warning: Don't touch me.

"Why are you glaring at Uncle?" Gong Jie said righteously, "I'm doing this for your own good. If you weren't my nephew, I wouldn't care less if all your limbs degenerated from lying down all day."

Yun Shishi chimed in, "That's right, Youyou. You can't stay in your room every day. You have to go out for a walk occasionally."

Upon hearing this, Mu Yazhe suddenly suggested, "Why don't we take him out for a walk? It might be beneficial to his memory."

She found his words reasonable.

Gong Jie added, "I heard that there's an outdoor music festival at Manhattan Plaza tonight. It starts at eight. Why don't we go for a stroll and take a look at the event?"

Yun Shishi readily agreed.

Gong Jie was about to pick up Yueyao when Yun Shishi immediately said, "Yueyao can't go. It's an outdoor music festival and the noise is too loud it will scare her so much she'd end up crying."

"What do we do with her then?"

Although there was a nanny, Yueyao wouldn't want to be away from them. Hence they worried about this.

Mu Yazhe said matter-of-factly, "As an uncle, you should stay and take care of Yueyao."

Gong Jie immediately protested, "No way! Why should I?!" He hooked his arm around Mu Yazhe's shoulder and said disdainfully, "Don't think I don't know what you're up to! You're using this event to build closer ties with Youyou! No, I want to go too!"

"What's wrong with our family of three building closer ties?"

"Huh, are you practicing discrimination?" Gong Jie said indignantly, "I want to build closer ties with my nephew too!"

The other man replied coolly, "Your surname is Gong, not Mu. You and I are not family."

Gong Jie was speechless.

Yun Shishi added, "Xiao Jie, just stay at home and take care of Yueyao."

Mu Yazhe added, "Yes, you love fawning over Yueyao. No one will be fighting with you over her now. Be good." With that, Mu Yazhe picked Youyou up and left with Yun Shishi!

Gong Jie was left standing alone in the living room with a bitter expression. He cursed in silence. Did the man think he was a nanny?

Just as Gong Jie was about to flare up, Yueyao suddenly walked to his side, squatted down, and quietly stuffed a toy into the leg of his pants.

"Hahaha!" Yueyao let out a peal of silvery laughter. She grabbed his pants and gave it a tug.

Gong Jie lowered his head and saw that she was having fun with his pants. The look in his eyes softened as he immediately squatted down and pulled her into his embrace.

"Yueyao, Uncle will keep you company at home, okay?"

Yueyao suddenly raised her chubby little paws and slapped his face.

Gong Jie's expression darkened as he grabbed her hand. "Don't hit Uncle's face."

The girl raised her hand and slapped his face again.

Gong Jie furrowed his brows in displeasure. However, when he saw Yueyao smiling so heartlessly and was so irresistibly lovable, he caved. He curled his lips and gently kissed her cheek. "Yueyao, be good. Daddy and Mommy don't want you around but Uncle will keep you company."

Yueyao suddenly grabbed and pulled at his cheeks. She was amused by his contorted handsome features and could not stop laughing.

…

Manhattan Square was about half an hour's drive away.

Yun Shishi carried Youyou and sat in the back seat. Even though it was just a short ride, and her legs went numb from him sitting on them, she could not bear to let go of the boy.
