Chapter 968: Little Sister-in-law
It was always like this. Yun Qiluo would almost be indulged by Yan Yan with whatever she wanted, which nurtured the young girl’s fearless nature, even daring to ride a tiger.
"Yes, yes, yes."
Fan Xinglan hurriedly echoed along with others, only then reacting to what Ji Ruofeng had called her.
Quickly covering his mouth, he whispered, "Are you crazy, Little Jiji? What are you calling her?" Then he gave Yun Qiqi an awkward yet nervously apologetic smile, "Sorry, Qi Qi, Ji Ruofeng just likes to call out randomly. Don’t take it to heart."
Ever since they realized Yun Qiqi didn’t recognize them and seemed unhappy with the previous nickname, the mischief group had secretly agreed that no one would call her Little Sister-in-law and upset her.
However, Ji Ruofeng just couldn’t control his mouth and blurted it out.
He’s even called her that at school multiple times.
Not just him, others have slipped up too.
Thus, Yun Qiqi was puzzled: Why were they so nervous? It wasn’t the first time they had called her that.
However, previously when they called her that, she indeed ignored them.
Firstly, she thought that name didn’t suit her. She knew what ’sister-in-law’ meant and knew who their Brother Yan was.
Secondly, and most importantly... she always felt that nickname belonged to the original girl. She felt awkward, as if they were treating her as someone else whenever they called her that.
Seeing their nervous expressions now, Yun Qiqi’s lips curved into a slight smile.
She softly said, "It’s fine, I don’t mind, call me whatever you want."
The mischief group, worried she might get upset, could hardly believe their ears.
"Re-really?"
"Little Sister-in-law, you really don’t mind us calling you that?"
Yun Qiqi shook her head, "I don’t mind."
The mischief group immediately erupted into celebration.
Little Sister-in-law actually agreed to let them call her Little Sister-in-law!!
Ji Ruofeng was the first to leap up excitedly, shouting, "Wow, Little Sister-in-law, you’re awesome!!"
Woohoo, now they can openly call her Little Sister-in-law!!
The group instantly reverted the nickname, each calling her Little Sister-in-law, feeling more at ease than when they were awfully stilted calling her by name before.
Moreover, this Little Sister-in-law today seemed particularly easy-going.
Her attitude towards them was much better, though somewhat inexplicable, it didn’t hinder their joy.
Yan Yan had just returned from outside, eager to find a certain little one at the office for some affection.
However, arriving at the office, there was no sign of her. After inquiring with Secretary Qin, he headed to the rooftop garden.
As he approached the rooftop garden, he heard the group of kids call his Little Gua differently.
Yan Yan’s steps paused; realizing the significance of this nickname, his phoenix eyes lazily half-closed, a smile unknowingly spreading across his brows and eyes.
He stepped forward, naturally wrapping his arm around the young girl’s slender shoulders.
Asked, "What’s everyone up to?"
The mischief group, upon seeing him approach, acted like mice seeing a cat. Fan Xinglan quickly pulled back the paw he tried to place on Yun Qiqi’s shoulder.
They all greeted Yan Yan: "Hello, Brother Yan."
"Brother Yan, you’re back! Weren’t you on a business trip?"
