Evil Husband, Glutton Wife: Buy Miss Piggy, Get Free Little Buns

11 Taking the Handsome Uncle Home 1

Feng Tianyi assured Little Star that he was fine and that she should stop her tears. The little girl felt guilty that she was the cause of her favorite uncle's injuries. If Uncle hadn't covered her with a blanket, she might be the one getting treatment for burns this time.

"Uncle, I'm so sorry. I didn't notice the woman coming my way when I ran towards you. I was in a hurry to see you," Little Star looked apologetically at the man who saved her.

"Stop crying, Little Star. Uncle will recover soon. It's not your fault." Using his left hand, Feng Tianyi wiped the tears from Little Star's cheeks. He couldn't understand why he had a sense of familiarity when he held Little Star in his arms.

Meanwhile, the look that Xiao Bao was giving him was hard to describe. It was as if he was assessing… the value of a rare jewel. Such thought made Feng Tianyi berate himself. He was forced to remind himself that Xiao Bao was just a kid.

"Uncle, your laptop…" Xiao Bao reminded him of his problem. Ah, was there a chance to retrieve the manuscript he'd written for his book? He only had two and half weeks before his deadline and now he wasn't sure if he would be able to meet it, not unless he rewrote it from scratch nonstop for a few days.

He pinched the bridge of his nose as he tried to figure out what he should do next. He then felt a slight tug on his left sleeve and looked at Little Star.

"Uncle, I cannot afford to pay for your laptop," she blinked at him.

"Neither do I. We're just kids, Uncle. Mommy doesn't allow us to handle our money yet." Xiao Bao added.

Feng Tianyi laughed awkwardly at their remarks. Of course, he already knew their predicament. When he threw himself earlier to protect Little Star, the thought of keeping his laptop safe from the spill was also forgotten.

"Uncle, we know we can't pay you. Little Star and I can't afford it." Xiao Bao told him.

"It's alright. Money isn't the issue here. I'm more worried about the manuscript I've written so far. It's invaluable," Feng Tianyi tried to remember if he'd kept a remote backup somewhere.

"Our Mommy is invaluable too. Does it mean we should give her to you?" Xiao Bao pondered out loud.

The people around them were stunned. This little kid… was he serious? Was he trying to sell their own mother to this handsome uncle to pay their debts?

"Our Mommy is beautiful, Uncle. Just like Little Star," Little Star beamed a smile at him, "She's capable except for household chores. She cannot wash clothes and cook, but she can help you earn a lot of money!"

"How do you know I'm not yet married? Did you know who I am?" He asked the two.

They've been meeting in the mornings and he'd never formally introduced himself to these two cute little buns. They shook their heads and blinked their round clear eyes at him.

"Easy!" Xiao Bao laughed and pointed to his hands. "Uncle doesn't wear any ring. Auntie Lu once told us married people wear rings near their pinkies."

"What about your father? Don't you have a Daddy?" Feng Tianyi questioned. He only spends an hour or two with these two every morning, and he really had no idea who they were.

"We don't have a Daddy." Little Star muttered lowly beside him. "Mommy said she doesn't know where our Daddy is."

"And if he loves us, shouldn't he make an effort to see us? Auntie Mei said that Mommy never saw our Daddy since she got pregnant with us.

Feng Tianyi blinked at that. So they have no idea who their father was or what he looks like since birth? That must be disheartening for children like them.

"Uncle, hug," Little Star stretched her small arms and tried to get his attention back. Xiao Bao once told him that his sister likes hugs whenever she was upset or sad.

Sighing to himself, Feng Tianyi couldn't believe himself that he would be this soft hearted after meeting these children.

He took Little Star and allowed her to wrap her small arms around his neck with her legs hooked on his side. He gently patted her back to console her.

"Don't cry anymore. Uncle isn't mad at you," Feng Tianyi reassured her. He was also shocked at how easy it was for him to get along with these children.

The little girl seemed satisfied and overjoyed as she tightened her hold around his neck. Her eyes were twinkling like stars in glee. Handsome uncle was so nice. It was a pity he couldn't walk or she would invite him to dinner with Mommy.

This made Feng Tianyi adore the little girl a little more.

After the nurses treated his burn, they left the ER with Little Star still seated on Feng Tianyi's lap as if it was specially reserved for her.

"Thank you for helping me today, but you really don't have to bring me home. I can call someone to pick me up from here."

"It's alright, Uncle," Xiao Bao huffed and crossed his arms. "We've met annoying people before who tried to harm me and Little Star. Our Mommy always reminds us to pay attention to how others act around us."

His voice sounded so childlike but authoritative, and Feng Tianyi found it amusing.

"Annoying people? Just how old are you now?" He asked the boy.

"Yu Gege and Little Star are already four!" Little Star joined their conversation and answered his question.

Xiao Bao sighed and shook his head.

"Annoying people. They always think they could cheat us because we are just kids. The most annoying are those men who are swarming to our Mommy like pests! They are really hateful, Uncle! Don't know what got to their heads to think they could win our Mommy."

"But you are different, Uncle." Little Star patted his head which made the corner of Feng Tianyi's lips twitch. "You are kind and handsome. You also treat Little Star and Yu Gege well. Don't worry from now on, Yu Gege and I will take care of you."

Feng Tianyi wanted to laugh at the audacity of these children to assume that he was a pitiful, kind, and poor uncle they just met and was acquainted with. He suddenly wondered if there was something wrong with his hearing. Had he heard them right?

If they knew what his net worth was, would they say the same thing? And what just kind of mother did they have to raise them like this?

"You want to take care of me?"

To think that these two four-year-old children wanted to take care of him, isn't that like saying that he, the mighty Feng Tianyi, couldn't even support himself? Feng Tianyi didn't know if he should laugh or cry. He wondered if these two little buns knew how to care for a crippled uncle like him.
