Raising You This Small Stuff

Chapter 56.1 Mo Yixu’s sister-in-law!

Everyone was relieved when they heard the news that Po Fei was now with Kan Ming. Mo Yi Cheng gave him a vacation and it was said that the next day, special assistant Kan took a flight to the famous tourist attraction site Maldives, and it was also said that there was no entourage around…

Yuan Suo’s level increased again, reaching level 30 in one academic year which was extremely rare in the elf campus.

“I’m just lucky ( ω ),” Yuan Suo replied to congratulatory messages everyone sent.

Long Bow typed quickly, “We’re the ones who are lucky to have met you.”

Yuan Suo, who was sitting on the sofa and leaning into Mo Yi Cheng’s arms, paused as he replied to the message. Yes, lucky to have met, just like he and Mo Yi Cheng.

Feeling a change in the emotions of the little thing curled up in his arms, Mo Yi Cheng lowered his head and kissed the hair in front of Yuan Suo’s forehead gently, “What’s wrong?”

“No… nothing.” Even if Mo Yi Cheng had done this many times, Yuan Suo was still shy, “I… I just feel that I upgraded… so fast.”

Mo Yi Cheng smiled and asked, “Happy?”

Yuan Suo froze for a moment then nodded.

“Then…. how do you want to thank me?” The tail end of Mo Yi Cheng’s words trailed of ambiguously, his hands suddenly became a little restless.

“Um… that… it tickles… ha ha…” Yuan Suo dodged left and right, tears almost coming out from laughing.

Mo Yi Cheng: “…”

The ambiguous atmosphere disappeared.

“Alright.” Mo Yi Cheng struggled to restrain himself.

Yuan Suo rubbed his stomach, “Oh oh.”

“Now, look at me seriously.” Mo Yi Cheng’s arms propped up at his sides, circling the person underneath him.

Mo Yi Cheng’s gaze blazed, seemingly… quite different from it usually was. Gulping, Yuan Suo suddenly became a little nervous.

Light kisses fell softly, as if taking care of a very precious item, falling on his fine lips, then spreading out little by little.

“Mo….” Yuan Suo raised his hand subconsciously to grab Mo Yi Cheng’s housecoat, the scattered kisses on his neck like a flame that set him on fire.

Mo Yi Cheng nibbled on him gently and mischievously, leaving faint teeth marks as he asked in a hoarse voice, “What did you call me?”

“Uhm…” At this kind of time, he was… he was very embarrassed, “Don’t…. Don’t bite…. Yi Cheng.”

When the soft pleading voice entered his ears, Mo Yi Cheng shuddered slightly, as if he had been electrocuted.

“Ooo…. Mo Yi Cheng…. liar…. liar…. um….” Yuan Suo’s words were swallowed by a kiss as if they were gold. His hand clutched his lapels, green veins appearing under his fair skin.

The room was already filled with charm.

Mo Yi Cheng got up and picked the little thing who was too shy to open his eyes up, ready to take him back to his room.

But just at this moment, an untimely knock sounded on the door.

“Someone is here!” Yuan Suo’s eyes widened in fright like a bunny as he struggled to jump down.

Mo Yi Cheng frowned then simply carried him in his arms as he walked towards the door, reluctant to put him down.

He clicked on the video screen.

A handsome and sunny face appeared, revealing two rows of white teeth as he smiled.

“Second brother, it’s me!” Mo Yixu waved at the camera, “I’m back! Open the door quickly!”

This time Yuan Suo really couldn’t stay. If Mo Yi Cheng’s brother saw them…

Mo Yi Cheng could only put him down, but the fire in his body hadn’t gone down yet hence he could only slow down a few seconds before gritting his teeth as he opened the door. Yuan Suo stood behind him obediently.

Mo Yixu was in a sports suit, tall and handsome as he held two oversized convenient bags in his hands. The moment he saw Mo Yi Cheng, he was about to jump on him but Mo Yi Cheng pressed his forehead back.

“Why are you back all of a sudden?”

Mo Yixu didn’t expect to receive such a cold and disgusted attitude from his second brother. He immediately put on an aggrieved expression, “Second brother, I came to you immediately after I returned, you’re really too heartless!” Then he put his hand around his second brother’s shoulder and saw a soft and sticky adorable teenager whose beauty was simply off the charts. He slapped his forehead immediately and exclaimed in a way that said he understood it all, “Second brother, I was wrong!”

“Hmm.” Mo Yi Cheng hummed then let him in.

As soon as he entered the room, he greeted Yuan Suo immediately, “Hello little sister-in-law! I’m Mo Yixu, we’ve met before on video!”

When Yuan Suo heard the words ‘little sister-in-law’, the blush that had just faded came back in full force. He waved his hands quickly, “I… I’m not… I’m not.” They couldn’t let others know that he and Mo Yi Cheng were dating. A man and a man dating would not only affect Mo Yi Cheng’s career, his family would also oppose it. This was the determined conclusion Yuan Suo had come to after looking it up online when he and Mo Yi Cheng affirmed their relationship.

Mo Yi Cheng looked at the small thing who was at a loss as to what to do, frowned then said: “There’s no need to hide it from Yixu.”

“Ah?” Yuan Suo froze, there was no need to hide it?

Mo Yixu’s eyes that were already burning with a fire for gossip blazed as if a lot dry wood had been added, “So… second brother, is this really my little sister-in-law?”

Mo Yi Cheng nodded then corrected him, slightly dissatisfied, “Just call him sister-in-law.”

“Ah! Yes!” Mo Yixu stood up straight, posture solemn like he was in the military, “Sister-in-law!”

Yuan Suo stammered, not knowing how to reply, fortunately Mo Yi Cheng helped relieve the situation. He instructed Mo Yixu to take all the things he had brought to the kitchen and to put them away, then told him to go to the living room to report on his studies for this semester.

Chapter 56.2 Mo Yixu’s sister-in-law!

“Second brother, you’re really an authentic old fashioned person, even mom has shifted her focus in the emotional direction.” Mo Yixu sat on the sofa with a big grin, picked up a lollipop on the table and was about to stuff it into his mouth. Who would have thought that his second brother would stop him, “Change the color.” That was the only pink one left and the little thing liked it very much.

The corners of Mo Yixu’s mouth twitched, knowing the reason without having to ask why. He shook his head helplessly then reached for the green apple flavor. Mo Yi Cheng handed the pink strawberry flavored lollipop to Yuan Suo unapologetically. Yuan Suo was a little embarrassed, but he took and put it in his mouth carefully… so sweet.

Mo Yixu felt that what was in his mouth wasn’t an apple flavored lollipop, but an authentic dog food flavored one!

Mo Yi Cheng continued with the topic he had just raised, “Mom will pay extra attention to your emotional state, I just need to know about your studies.”

Mo Yi Cheng placed emphasis on the ‘extra’, causing Mo Yixu to almost bite the lollipop in agitation, “Second brother, I studied my books well, I’ve sent my report card to your mailbox, and, I always take second brother as an example.” Thinking about his pocket money for the next semester, he decided to put aside his dignity to flatter to the extreme, “I remember that back then second brother concentrated on his studies and career wholeheartedly like they were sage books to be studied and minded his own business, that is why he was able to meet little…. sister-in-law, the right person at the right time!”

“Hmm.” Mo Yi Cheng open his mailbox on his cell phone and went through it. Although the response was low, he was obviously very satisfied. The pleasant curve of the corners of his lips was already a foreshadow to plenty of pocket money he would receive.

Mo Yixu continued, “Sister-in-law, you don’t know, my second brother was a domineering boss when he was in school. He was handsome and good-looking and the girls who pursued him… there were also boys could circle S City three times.”

“Er…” Yuan Suo’s mouth opened wide in surprise.

“Really! But my second brother remained completely unmoved….” Although what he was saying was true, because of the vivid and colorful way he was describing it, it sounded like a one-person comic sketch, “Afterwards everyone gave second brother the nickname ‘cold-hearted and indifferent’ a person who isn’t concerned with the mundane affairs of the world!”

“Cough!” Mo Yi Cheng felt that it was time to stop him, fearing that things would turn counterproductive if he continued, “Have you had dinner?”

“… Not yet.” Mo Yixu closed his mouth.

“Hmm, it just so happens that we haven’t eaten too, so stay.”

“Ah, okay!” Mo Yixu thought it would be Yuan Suo who would be cooking so he said attentively, “Sister-in-law’s cooking must be very good, I’ll eat until I’m satisfied today!”

Yuan Suo was a little embarrassed, whispering, “I, I don’t know how to cook.”

“Ah…. take, take-out is fine.”

“But Mo Yi Cheng can.” Yuan Suo stressed seriously.

“What?” Mo Yixu shocked.

Mo Yi Cheng got up, pulling up the sleeves of his white housecoat, “Is it hard to comprehend? Come and help me.” Usually he would prepare the food in the game through the system then take it out with gold coins, saving time and effort. But since Mo Yixu was around today, it wasn’t convenient to use the game. However he had been cooking in the game for so long and was familiar with the relevant procedures, moreover after having operated the game several times, his cooking skills were no longer what they used to be.

Mo Yixu’s worldview nearly collapsed as he followed his brother into the kitchen. He could only watch as Mo Yi Cheng put on an apron skillfully, open the fridge to take the ingredients out and deal with them, his actions flowing smoothly like a skilled professional.

“What are you standing there dazed for? Peel two cloves of garlic.”

He peeled the garlic obediently, then stretched his neck to look at Yuan Suo who was sitting cross-legged in the living room on the sofa watching cartoons, “Brother, are you really my brother?”

A white onion hit him on the forehead, making his neck shrink in from the pain, “Brother!”

Mo Yi Cheng, “You’ve answered yourself.”

He rolled his eyes as he rubbed his forehead, aggrieved, “Cherishing your love over your younger brother.”

As the closing film of the North X Film Festival, director Li Xilan’s ‘Drunk’ premiered its end credits song, ‘Galaxy’ which immediately topped the charts as soon as it went online on major music websites. However the singer’s name was very unfamiliar and they couldn’t find even a bit of information about him online.

A lot of people who liked the song left comments below, all of which included the phrase ‘reluctant to part with’. When the song ended, they were very reluctant to let go, not sure if it was because they couldn’t let go of the story in the song or all that had passed away.

“The clothes are cold and thin, the long nights hard to sleep, trudging through the thorns on the other side of the galaxy, roses blooming out of your eyebrows.

At the bottom of the soul, there your appearance lies, the mountains are high and the years are always unpredictable, but the stars won’t forget your eyebrows.”

As if, there was someone he wanted to remember desperately…

Such a hit song naturally became the darling of major radio stations.

In the car, the driver was sitting upright, immaculately clean white gloves on his hand.

The man sitting in the back had a cold face, the oppressive aura between his eyebrows unusually obvious even when his eyes were closed.

“Turn on the radio.” Mo Yi Yan suddenly found the surrounding silence distracting.

“Yes.” The driver turned the radio on.

“Dear listeners, the song we’re recommending to you today is the latest masterpiece of director Li Xilan….” After the sweet voice of the radio host fell, there was the soothing intro of ‘Galaxy’, then Chen Jiao’s warm and clear voice sounded. Mo Yi Yan’s eyes that had been closed tightly snapped open.
