Addicted to My Cutie and Sweetie

Chapter 450: The Qin Family’s Jealous King, Jealousy Online (6)【Monthly Ticket Additional Update】

Qin Nanyu had originally only wanted to put on an act, using the care of his son to curry favor with Ji Weitian.

Now, what a situation—they’d actually set up the stage for him, so how was he to continue the performance?

"Cough cough!"

Qin Nanyu cleared his throat.

Telling a bedtime story to a child wasn’t something he had never done before.

But it was the first time doing it in front of Ji Weitian, and Qin Nanyu felt oddly nervous, like a dad going for a job interview, afraid that a single poor performance would get him cut from the role.

The pressure was greater than betting all his possessions, making him extremely tense.

"I’m a bit thirsty," Qin Nanyu licked his lips, intentionally dragging out the time.

Ideally, the two little ones would fall asleep on their own, so he wouldn’t have to tell them a bedtime story.

But seeing the two sprightly children, he feared that even after two more hours, they wouldn’t necessarily be asleep.

Ji Weitian saw that he hadn’t started speaking and her brows knit slightly, "If you can’t read the bedtime story, just give me the book."

"I can."

Qin Nanyu avoided her hand, and seeing that the judge was getting angry, he dared not delay.

He flipped to a random page and began to read as if following a script.

It was just telling a story, he hadn’t eaten pork before but he had seen pigs run, right?

He had often watched from the side when Ji Weitian told stories to the two little ones, imitating her, he could at least learn fifty to sixty percent of the technique.

His magnetic voice earned him quite a few points.

The effect was surprisingly good.

By the end, not only were the two little ones entranced, but Ji Weitian was also slightly spellbound.

She admitted that ever since she found out Qin Nanyu was that man from the past, there was an indescribable feeling in her heart toward him.

Especially after meeting Luo Xinyan today and learning about everything that happened in the past.

Although she knew that Qin Nanyu was also a victim, she couldn’t treat him the same as others.

Deep down, she resisted recalling the past, yet couldn’t pretend as if nothing had happened.

Some things, even if you try to forget, the hurt is branded upon your soul and will awaken that nerve called fear during the silent nights.

Until this very moment, when she saw him sitting by the bed, holding a book, focused and earnestly telling a bedtime story to his son and daughter.

Ji Weitian suddenly felt something inside her quietly change.

A faint warmth rose in her heart.

Staring at his handsome profile, she watched and watched until she became mesmerized...

"They’re asleep, should I carry them back to their respective rooms?"

Qin Nanyu abruptly stopped and turned his head to ask Ji Weitian beside him.

Ji Weitian, who was asked: "..."

After being dazed for a few seconds, she followed his gaze and saw that the two little ones had fallen asleep while listening to the story, contentedly smacking their lips, looking like they would have good dreams tonight.

"Carry Ruirui back to his own room; Yaoyao doesn’t sleep peacefully and always ends up kicking him to the floor."

Qin Nanyu nodded in agreement and took the initiative to pick up his son.

Ji Weitian walked ahead of him, opening doors for him.

After the two children were settled, Ji Weitian hesitated, wondering whether or not to tell him the children’s true origins when she suddenly heard a stomach growling.

She appeared stunned and looked up in astonishment at Qin Nanyu, who was already at the door.

She asked with her eyes, hadn’t they had dinner already, how could he be hungry again?

Before she knew it, Qin Nanyu said nothing and leaned weakly against the door, his lips curling into an indifferent smile as he parted them lightly.

"Seeing you rarely get together with friends, I didn’t want to interrupt your conversation, so I found an excuse to step away."
