Surrounded by the Billionaire's Deep Doting-Chapter 539 - 414: Another Year Older, According to My Calculations!

Chapter 539: Chapter 414: Another Year Older, According to My Calculations!

Holding a candy in her hand (in the previous Chapter this was mistakenly written as "head", which is quite frightening when you think about it), she turned around, just as Yin Shixiu stepped in. With a piercing gaze, someone instinctively focused on the lollipop...

"What are you doing?"

"Can’t waste it."

"..."

Yin Shixiu stepped forward, hugged her, and smoothly took the lollipop to hand it over to Ah Su for handling.

"I said it can’t be wasted. As a father, you must set an example!"

"Next time, next time."

"Young Master and Young Madam still get along so well!"

Ah Su said with a smile.

Su Xiaomeng quickly said to Ah Su, "Our relationship isn’t that good! Your Young Master is getting worse!"

Nobody really took Su Xiaomeng’s accusation seriously.

"Haha!"

A few of the servants couldn’t help but laugh.

Yin Shixiu was rather pleased with himself, his eyebrows slightly raised, which made Su Xiaomeng secretly fume.

Yin Shaohui and Zhou Mengqin sat on the sofa with Shuangshuang and Huanghuang, urging the cook to quickly bring out delicious food and drinks,

while Su Xiaomeng asked the servants to bring out the gifts they had brought back, placing them where they belonged.

Yin Shaohui and Zhou Mengqin were worldly people, so the specialty food Xiao Meng brought wasn’t particularly displayed.

It’s the thought that counts.

Additionally, Xiao Meng brought a few handicrafts, and each servant received one.

Ah Su immediately said, "Young Madam is still the best. Young Master wouldn’t bring so many things back."

Yin Shixiu didn’t comment, just smiled.

"Tomorrow is New Year’s Eve. How are your parents’ arrangements?"

Zhou Mengqin asked.

This year’s New Year’s Eve came early, on January 22nd.

Xiao Meng said, "We’ll spend New Year’s Eve here, and on the second day of the New Year, my uncle is hosting a dinner in the city. We’ll take Shuangshuang and Huanghuang to pay respects to their grandfather."

"Mm, good."

Zhou Mengqin was quite satisfied with this arrangement.

"You’ve been on a plane for so long, you should go and rest well first. When dinner is ready, I’ll have a servant call you at Jun Garden."

"Alright, and about Shuang’er and Huang’er..."

The siblings didn’t feel any fatigue from traveling. Flying was just like playing for them. Even when the plane encountered turbulence and shook, they weren’t afraid at all, peering out through the small window...

They’d sleep when tired, and make a fuss when awake.

Yin Shixiu, Su Xiaomeng, and the flight crew were exhausted because of them.

"They still have lots of energy, let them stay here. Grandpa and Grandma haven’t seen them for a long time and missed them dearly."

Su Xiaomeng nodded, "Okay."

So Yin Shixiu and Su Xiaomeng took the electric cart to Jun Garden.

The Jun Garden was always kept very clean, but Yin Shixiu and Su Xiaomeng didn’t stay here often, so it felt a bit devoid of life.

The long corridor with its classical charm, the sky well covered in snow, the bare branches of the plane tree burdened with a thick layer of snow, as Xiao Meng breathed in deeply, the cold air filled her lungs, and she couldn’t help but shiver.

Though they said they were tired, they weren’t really tired.

While Beijing was cold, it wasn’t the damp, wet cold of the South. This type of cold, as long as you wrapped yourself up tightly, was quite alright.

Su Xiaomeng stood at a corner of the corridor, looking at the large plane tree in the center of the sky well, surrounded by two circles of plum trees which were blooming in bright red!

Yin Shixiu paused with her.

"Withstand frost and fight snow."

"Huh?"

"I’m talking about the plum blossoms."

Yin Shixiu couldn’t help but hold her in his embrace, "How come you’re suddenly so poetic? I thought only the third brother-in-law would suddenly come up with such literary phrases while looking at this kind of tranquil scene."

"I’ve always been poetic. I can even compose poems!"

Xiao Meng tilted her chin up.

"Oh?"

This was refreshing, "Compose one then."

"Hmm... let me think for a moment."

Su Xiaomeng said, and Yin Shixiu, seeing her posture, assumed she was serious.

Yin Shixiu pulled her into his arms, the cold outside was indeed cold, but with the two of them together, no amount of cold could make them shiver.

"Alright!"

Su Xiaomeng popped out of his embrace and dramatically declared, "Back to Beijing across a thousand miles!"

"..."

"In the dead of winter, we come to admire the plum blossoms!"

"..."

"My husband is thirty-five this year, doing the math... he’s old again!"

After Su Xiaomeng spoke, she burst into laughter on her own, Yin Shixiu’s face sank, he reached out to grab her back, but the woman was already ahead of him, slipping away faster than a rabbit!

The snow-covered courtyard was instantly trampled into a mess by two pairs of footprints!

"Oh dear!"

Su Xiaomeng got too excited and fell right into a pile of snow!

Yin Shixiu didn’t mind being in broad daylight, he leaned over and pinned her down in his arms...

"Oh dear, get up, what does it look like if someone sees us?"

"You think I’m old?"

"Um... no."

"... Get up."

Yin Shixiu got up first, pulled Su Xiaomeng to her feet, dusted off the snow on her, and then gathered her into his arms,

"Just recovered, don’t play around."

"...Okay."

Su Xiaomeng responded, and the two went back indoors.

Beijing, although not away for long, already feels as if they’ve been away for a long, long time.

————

On New Year’s Eve, the Yin Family mansion got quite lively, the younger generation gathered, the adults had their own excitement, the children had their own fun.

Speaking of which, the one she was most at odds with was Guo Tong, not seeing that person she wouldn’t think of them, but seeing them...

Su Xiaomeng didn’t expect Guo Tong, who was radiant and pregnant half a year ago, with an overwhelming demeanor, now had subdued her temperament considerably, following Yin Bowen like a little wife. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

If Yin Bowen said go east, she wouldn’t dare head west.

This truly surprised Su Xiaomeng.

Their gazes did meet, but once they did, Guo Tong quickly looked away...

Xiaomeng recalled the tabloid news about Yin Bowen not long ago, later when Yin Meng contacted her and told her, Yin Bowen had actually hooked up with a model celebrity.

But this matter was quickly suppressed from all sides, and the model celebrity became the titular sister of Yin Bowen.

Yin Shixiu wasn’t surprised to hear the news; at that time it was the politically sensitive period for Yin Shiqing, and he wouldn’t let his son’s scandal ruin his own career.

After Yin Shiqing clarified it, all the media didn’t dare dig deeper.

The one who suffered the most was Guo Tong.

She never expected that just half a year into their marriage, she’d follow in Zhu Lan’s footsteps.

She prided herself as being exceptionally clever, thinking she had an easy time controlling a man like Yin Bowen, yet unexpectedly...

With one word from Yin Shiqing, everything turned contrary to her imagination,

"You didn’t really think I couldn’t resist Bowen and allowed you to enter this family, did you? You want luxury and status; the Yin Family can give you that, but if you play tricks in our house, be prepared to spend the rest of your life in prison."

Guo Tong wasn’t one to easily give up; she couldn’t bear the indignity.

However, at this moment, she truly couldn’t do anything.

Su Xiaomeng remained radiant and carefree, having returned from London, looking even more charming than before.

Her words and actions were appropriate and natural, already showing the demeanor of a real young madam of a wealthy family.

Xiaomeng and Yin Meng hadn’t seen each other for a long time, they planned to stay up together on New Year’s Eve.

Yin Shixiu invited her back to Jun Garden, she refused promptly, meanwhile, Shan Mingxu raised his paw high,

"Uncle, I’ll take Shuangshuang and Huanghuang with me to Jun Garden to sleep!"

"..."

The word "accompany" alone made people shiver.

However they ended up sleeping, Xiaomeng didn’t care, she went with Yin Meng to Huannan Garden instead, and got into Yin Meng’s bed.

After such a long absence, the two talked about everything, Yin Meng had been accepted as a Beijing University graduate student, quite impressive, not only that, during this time, she had been taken by her parents to an arranged marriage meeting.

A very embarrassing experience.

Listening to it made Su Xiaomeng’s stomach hurt from laughter.

"You’re still laughing! I’m really envious of you, having met your destined one so early! And I’m only twenty-four now! They’re already in such a hurry... like I can’t get married."

"It seems like everyone thinks... he’s so perfect..."

Xiaomeng truly sighed, even she had always thought he was perfect.

"Of course, that’s my little uncle! When he was young, the line of women chasing him was probably endless! But he was abroad for many years, had several girlfriends but never told the family, but there’s one I remember quite well, how old was I then? Seven or eight years old? There was a woman who waited at our doorstep for him for several days!"

"I thought then, hmm, my little uncle really is charming! Hahaha!"

"..."
