this was Fang Jiaqi's voice. She found it rather amusing. Wu Shuang smiled lightly but didn't speak and hung up the phone. She hadn't met Fang Jiaqi very often, mostly in Rome. Kaka had taken her the...662
Mou Xiaobai was shocked, sitting properly as Mou Yao harrumphed heavily. Shiyi found the two of them increasingly... eye-catching. Oh no, she had been infected by Ye Wei.
Ye Wei answered a phone call from Cheng Anya; their family was also celebrating the lunar new year's eve. Ye Tianyu and Ye Kelan were both there, as well as Ye Feimo who returned to A City. They were all having fun together. Ye Wei chatted with them for quite some time until Rongyan and Shiyi brought out fruit platters and snacks. Everyone moved to the living room sofa. With their bellies full and no desire to move from the couch, Ye Wei took turns making phone calls. Mou Xiaobai snatched her phone and talked for more than an hour.
Mou Jue said, "It would be better if we could video call."
Everyone nodded in agreement. Rongyan asked, "Is it a boy or girl in Nuonuo's belly"
"A little princess."
"Ningning, that mouth of yours. If he says it’s going to be a princess, then it will be." Shiyi said enviously.
Ye Wei said, "Of course, he knows best. Whether it's a boy or girl is not for him to decide."
No one spoke.
The moment Ye Wei hung up the phone call with her family, another call came in from Ye Wei’s mobile phone; it was Duoduo's loud voice that revived someone who had been pretending to be dead all evening and nearly rolled off the sofa.
Mou Xiaobai tsked. It was indeed true.
Wu Shuang: "Put on speakerphone everyone, happy new year, you can count your red packets."
Shiyi said, "Are you having fun in Cairo"
"Nile River, wine, handsome men, very thrilling." Wu Shuang laughed heartily. Shiyi said, "Soak up as many as possible; your mom used to soak up a lot of handsome guys."
"There's one beside me," came the faint voice of a man on the phone, together with Wu Shuang’s laughter. She seemed to be talking and drinking wine with that guy at the same time, in an excellent mood.
Ye Wei glanced at Caca: "You’ve grown up."
Mojue asked, "When are you coming back"
This was the question Kaka wanted to ask the most. After playing for so long, Wushuang should be returning by now. He missed Wushuang very much and wished he would come back soon. Why hadn't there been any news after such a long time
"I don’t plan on going back temporarily. I want to have more fun before I visit Uncle Baiye and Uncle Su Man in Riyadh."
Although Wushuang should call Su Man "Uncle" as he is the maternal uncle, calling him that would make him sound too old, so everyone called him "Uncle" instead of his actual generational name. Mojie and Mohuai wouldn’t call Su Man "uncle" either.
That would be a shocking sight to see.
"Understood, I won’t forget," said Wushuang with a smile.
He couldn’t hear Kaka’s voice. Was he not there Wushuang felt puzzled but was glad that it wasn’t an issue since the call was meant for his family members and not going to make a New Year's Day phone call would be inappropriate.
Kaka not being there was fine too.
Ever since Kaka had just come back from the dead, he listened to Wushuang’s voice until it made him gradually slump on the sofa pretending to be dead. Listening to Wushuang's voice, one could tell that he was very happy right now.
The carefree and unrestrained you can only laugh so freely.
Mohuai said, "Wushuang, if you’re strong enough, bring a ball back. I miss my daughter during National Day holidays. For now, I’m relying on you; there are too many kids in our family for us to be able to have more."
"Uncle, we can still do that," said Mo Bai.
Mohuai spoke seriously again, "What they give birth to may not necessarily belong to them, but what Wushuang gives birth to belongs solely to him."
Mohuai shut his mouth.
Wushuang burst out laughing on the other end of the line while even Rongyan couldn’t help but giggle. Chu Li said, "Moo Bai, you still need more training if you want to argue with your uncle."
Wu Shuang had already heard Rong Yan and Chu Li's voices, but she hadn't heard a word from Kaka. She didn't ask proactively either; after chatting for a while, she hung up the call. Mo Chen nudged Kaka.
"Why don’t you talk to Wu Shuang."
Kaka said indifferently, "She doesn’t want to talk to me."
Never before had he felt such a distinct sense of estrangement from Wu Shuang. She was distancing herself from him.
Even if Kaka were an idiot, he could feel it.
"Well deserved!" Mo Yao threw the two words at him, and Kaka feigned death on the sofa. Well-deserved He couldn't figure out what he had done to deserve Wu Shuang’s anger, leading her to cut off all contact with him.
What was wrong with Wu Shuang
No one could answer his question; now even Mo Yao and Mo Xiaobai's matters no longer piqued his interest. Kaka thought that perhaps he really did deserve it.
He had his reasons for not wanting to be with Wu Shuang, yet he couldn't bear seeing her so distant from him or tolerate how she was ignoring him.
Might Wu Shuang have grown tired of him
The last time in London, she had made it clear what their relationship entailed. He knew that they would never completely cut ties; he was easy to please—just being able to talk with her occasionally and hear her voice was enough.
Now, however, he couldn't even see her.
Hearing her voice caused him physical pain.
Rong Yan saw that he wasn’t happy and felt heavy-hearted too. Her son may have made mistakes and she might not understand him, but he was still her child. As he grew older, he no longer confided in her about his troubles. She didn't know what predicament he had found himself in or what difficulties he faced; she couldn't even offer a suggestion.
This feeling was unbearable. Chu Li squeezed Rong Yan's hand discreetly, and she managed a forced smile. Ye Wei wanted to berate Kaka some more but sensed that Rong Yan wasn’t in the mood for it and held her tongue.
She rarely considered others' feelings; however, despite disliking Kaka’s attitude towards Wu Shuang, she couldn't fail to respect Rong Yan and Chu Li in front of him.
Xīnyí cleverly changed the subject, and everyone started discussing how they had spent the past few days. Yè Wei and Xīnyí usually stayed at home and planned activities there; Róngyán and Chǔ Lí followed their hosts’ arrangements.
Yè Wei and Xīnyí began planning the activities for the coming days.
Suddenly, Xiǎobái's phone rang. He didn't know what to say to Mócéng that would make him happy when he saw his phone; he smiled, saying, "Jì Bīng ah, Happy New Year."
