The Older Brother of My Student is My Secret Crush

Chapter 164

Except for the beginning when raising a child was very torturous, things got much better later on.

As the two babies grew up day by day, their family dynamic was probably: Yu Na took care of the kids, the kids took care of Xiao Chen.

In front of the children, Xiao Chen had become the top of the food chain, strangely enough.

As soon as the two little ones saw Xiao Chen, they would pound his back and knead his legs, in addition to feeding him water.

Yu Na felt that she had given birth to two servants for Xiao Chen.

But fortunately, the real head of the household was still her.

If the mother was unhappy, the atmosphere at home would become very heavy, and the three took turns coaxing her.

As for the father... if he was unhappy, he would go to his room to digest it himself.

Just as Xiao Chen had said before in North City, if he was unhappy he would digest it himself, and after digesting it, he would come out looking crestfallen and apologize for neglecting them.

The family of four was extremely harmonious.

During winter vacation, Yu Na and Xiao Chen took the babies back to North City for the new year.

After their vacation started, Qiao Rui and Xu Yi also came to North City together.

At home, they still had to watch the children themselves, but after arriving in North City, it changed to the children not even bothering to pay attention to them.

Because there were too many people playing with the kids.

Qiao Rui played games with them, and there was joy throughout the house.

Xu Yi pretended to do magic tricks, taking out lots of toys from her bag, buying two of each toy.

Although they had countless toys, when seeing new ones, their eyes would still light up.

The grandparents held them lovingly, looking left and right at them.

Neighbors also came over to liven things up, bringing fruit and freshly made food with mouthwatering aromas.

They all exclaimed over the two little ones, “They’re so beautiful!”

Amidst the excitement, Xiao Chen and Yu Na secretly slipped away from the house, stealing some private time for just the two of them as they walked outside and enjoyed a brief two-person world.

Just like the first time they came to North City, although the two had been promoted to parents, they looked young, not much different from the young couples on the streets.

Walking together, they were like college students who had come home on vacation.

Xiao Chen bought candied haws and baked sweet potatoes for her, and the two of them bought a pair of spring festival couplets.

Yu Na held his hand, and couldn’t help but think back to those years when they had broken up -

That year, after Xiao Chen graduated, he left Luo Wei.

And Yu Na had also deleted all his contact information, comforting herself that once deleted, she wouldn't think about him anymore.

But she was wrong, completely wrong.

In fact, every time she went out, she felt Luo Wei was so empty, as if there wasn't a single person, even her voice echoed when she spoke.

Those she saw walking on the road seemed to be NPCs that only appeared in dreams.

Without him, the city was so boring.

Yu Na unleashed this almost crazy longing through shopping.

Every day when she went out, a group of people followed behind her.

Once, she went to the boutique where Xiao Chen used to accompany her shopping.

The shop assistants welcomed her like a VIP.

Back then, Xiao Chen had gone with her to buy a handbag, and this time Yu Na also bought a bag.

After the purchase, for some reason, mimicking Xiao Chen's actions, she went to the 100 Yuan store at the mall and bought an ugly large bag that she had ridiculed before.

It was also a bag Xiao Chen had bought.

Because he had told her that here she must not flaunt wealth, otherwise she would attract trouble.

Bad guys especially liked to target rich girls like her, wearing luxurious clothes and accessories.

They were just waiting for a chance when she was unguarded without bodyguards to seize her.

Yu Na pretended to be like Xiao Chen, imitating the way he used to package her luxury goods.

Xiao Chen could easily stuff the luxury brand bag into the ugly 100 Yuan store bag.

But Yu Na couldn't do it.

She tried very hard, but the items just wouldn't fit in.

The bodyguard behind her couldn't help but say, "Miss, let me help you."

Yu Na shook her head: "Don't get involved."

She didn't let anyone help her, forcing herself to stuff the bag in the deserted stairwell by herself.

The 100 Yuan store bag was too small and couldn't fit at all.

But Yu Na didn't give up, stubbornly wrestling with the bag, complaining in a choked voice as she stuffed, "Stupid bag!"

Finally, through tremendous effort, she managed to stuff the luxury bag into the ugly 100 Yuan store bag.

Her taut nerves relaxed, but just then, the bottom right corner of the 100 Yuan store bag ripped open a hole.

It seemed like a very small matter that wouldn't affect anything.

But Yu Na couldn't hold back anymore, her eyes turning moist, tears blurring her vision.

She squatted on the ground, sobbing softly.

This frightened the bodyguards. The two bodyguards looked at each other, neither knowing what to do.

Finally, one braver one carefully asked, "Miss, are you alright?"

Yu Na's shoulders heaved up and down, ignoring him.

After a brief cry, she left the mall looking as if nothing had happened.

The bodyguards followed behind.

While Yu Na was waiting at a red light, she thought of the past again.

Once, she had crossed the road without looking, and Xiao Chen grabbed her back, jokingly admonishing her: "Little sister, you cross the road without looking?"

Yu Na's face turned red: "I know you're here anyway..."

Xiao Chen's eyes widened in disbelief as he raised his eyebrows to retort: "But I can't follow you your whole life, you have to be careful and look for cars yourself, understand?"

"I understand."

Only then did she belatedly realize that the problem wasn't that the city was empty, but that her heart was empty.

That cold, tranquil heart had come alive when she met Xiao Chen, as if a splash of color had shined light on her.

And her little sun had left, her heart empty as well.

......

"Hey!"

Yu Na suddenly felt a hand on her shoulder pulling her in.

Xiao Chen drew her into his embrace, pinching her nose playfully as he chuckled: "We're about to cross the road, be careful."

It was the same scene of crossing the road.

This time they were waiting at a red light.

Yu Na thought of the past, and softly repeated what she had said back then: "I know you're here anyway..."

But this time Xiao Chen didn't retort, only nodded obediently: "You're right, from now on wherever you go, I'll be by your side."

The corners of Yu Na's lips curved up slightly.

When they reached the residential complex, Xiao Chen looked at the spring festival couplets in his hand and took the initiative to suggest: "Later, you can stand on my shoulders to paste up the couplet, okay?"

Yu Na laughed and pushed him away: "No!"

"No?"

His tone was full of a warning that said "you'll be in danger tonight".

Yu Na instantly understood the implication and cowered as she changed her words: "Okay..."

Xiao Chen nodded in satisfaction. "That's better."

When they had almost reached the building, Qiao Rui and Xu Yi opened the window holding the two babies.

Xu Yi said: "Brother, sister-in-law, dinner is ready."

Qiao Rui chimed in: "Hurry back, these two little monsters have been looking for you."

The two little ones, Xiao Yu and Xiao Yuan, stuck out their little heads and called out in baby voices: "Daddy! Mommy!"

Xiao Chen smiled helplessly, putting his arm around Yu Na's shoulders. "Let's go, the babies are impatient."

The two quickened their pace, jogging back home.

Yu Na's hand was gripped tightly by Xiao Chen. She clasped his hand in return, as if holding on to the brightest ray of light in her world.
