Chapter 703: Teasing
Jing Tian and I returned home with our spoils of war. My little uncle and cousin Mo had finished chatting and were playing chess in the small living room. I was no longer unhappy. I ran over to show them the conch and shell I found. They were great treasures to me.
Cousin Mo looked at me and smiled. “You’re still as silly as you were when you were young. What did that Kid see in you anyway?”
My little uncle sighed. “Your cousin is right. Hurry up and take action since this man doesn’t mind how silly you are.”
I didn’t get angry with them. I tilted my head and played with my shell. “Hmph!”
Jing Tian walked in slowly. I turned around. “Jing Tian, they said I was silly!”
Jing Tian smiled and sat beside me. He rubbed my head. “That’s because they’re projecting!”
He offended two people at once.
Little uncle and cousin Mo glared at him in unison.
Jing Tian looked at the chessboard in front of them. “Who owns the white chess piece? If they don’t do something, this piece will be taken.”
I held my chin and looked at him. He was so handsome!
Not only handsome but also capable!
Not many people were capable of angering little uncle and cousin Mo.
Cousin Mo put down his chess piece and asked my little uncle without looking at Jing Tian, “Little uncle, can we ask for a betrothal gift?”
Little Uncle was stunned for a moment. It was obvious that he had never thought about this question before. “That’s right. Why haven’t I thought about this question before? The only girl in our family is getting married. Naturally, we have to ask for more betrothal gifts!”
I scowled at him and sneered, “But I’m a fool! How much can you get from the betrothal gift?”
Little Uncle waved his hand and made his move on the chessboard. “What does it matter? Even if you’re deaf and mute, he’ll still want to marry you. He won’t mind!”
I said angrily, “Little uncle!”
Before I could move my hand onto the chessboard, cousin Mo grabbed my wrist. “Hey! How old are you now? Why are you still acting like a child? Flipping the chessboard when things don’t go your way. Hurry up and get married. Even without the betrothal gift, little uncle and I will accept it.”
“You’re the one being childish. One minute you want the betrothal gift and the other you don’t.”
Cousin Mo smiled but didn’t say anything.
My little uncle said resolutely, “Yes to the betrothal gift!”
Jing Tian smiled. “Alright, I’ll give you whatever you want!”
I warned my little uncle, “Don’t ask for anything too expensive!”
Jing Tian patted me. “It doesn’t matter. I’ll follow suit and do the same with Qu Hao.”
I suddenly realized something and was delighted. “Yes, Qu Hao will have to give you betrothal gifts! Alright, alright! Little Uncle, tell me quickly what kind of betrothal gift you want!”
Little uncle gritted his teeth and glared at me. “You haven’t even gotten married and you’ve already sided with an outsider. Hmph!”
Cousin mo nodded and said, “But that’s a good move, isn’t it, little uncle? No matter what we do, we’ll still lose.”
Little Uncle was speechless and said hatefully to cousin Mo, “How can we let him off so easily? Hmph!”
Cousin Mo laughed loudly. He didn’t look like he was sick at all.
However, his fingers were unbelievably cold.
I couldn’t help but ask, “Cousin Mo, are you feeling unwell?”
Cousin Mo was stunned for a moment. “No, I’m fine.”
I frowned at him. “You can’t avoid medical treatment. I’m going to arrange a full examination for you! You don’t have the right to object! Little Uncle, you’re not allowed to say anything. What you can say is that you agree!”
Little uncle and cousin Mo looked at each other. Cousin Mo said, “Alright, I’ll listen to Nanxing. I’ll have a physical examination.”
I suddenly thought of something. “Cousin Mo, actually do you know this or not. My blood can cure many diseases. Just go and have a check-up. Then, let Mr. Li take a look at you. It’ll be great if my blood can help your legs recover!”
