Chapter 264: Chapter 264: Full of Thoughts of You
Shi Yaoguang was shocked to her core when Ming Yan called her "little auntie."
After Ming Yan called her little auntie and noticed that Quan Jinbei’s expression had hardly improved, he quickly explained, "Uncle, I... I absolutely have no improper thoughts towards little auntie, please don’t misunderstand..."
"No improper thoughts?"
Quan Jinbei snorted coldly. "If you have no improper thoughts, why are you so attentive?"
Ming Yan scratched his head, his tone clearly ingratiating, "I... Isn’t this just loving the house and its crow?"
"Hm?"
"My admiration for you, uncle, is like the endless river, never ceasing..." Ming Yan started off with a hundred words of flattery before turning to Shi Yaoguang, "Uncle, you’re busy with thousands of affairs every day and don’t have time to deal with me, so I can only project this admiration onto little auntie."
"After all, she’s the one you married personally, so you must like little auntie a lot. My respectful and polite manner towards her is all because of you."
"Please don’t misunderstand my sincerity."
As he spoke, he even winked at Quan Jinbei, looking extremely innocent.
Those eyes, watery and pleading, would soften anyone’s heart involuntarily.
"Uncle~" Ming Yan said in a soft voice, "Won’t you say something? With you like this, my heart can’t settle down."
Quan Jinbei glanced at him coldly, his tone somewhat disdainful, "Enough, stop acting spoiled and foolish around me."
"Hehe~" Ming Yan giggled coyly, "As long as you understand me, uncle, that’s good."
Shi Yaoguang watched the interaction between the uncle and nephew, her mouth twitching slightly.
Who would have thought that Ming Yan was such an actor?
"Little auntie~" Ming Yan noticed her gaze and eagerly looked at her again.
Shi Yaoguang raised an eyebrow: "What now?"
Ming Yan fiddled with his fingers, looking quite aggrieved, "Little auntie, I was completely sincere when I praised you! You’re like a celestial maiden descended to earth~ beautiful, kind-hearted, and talented, simply the woman of my dreams—"
He was cut off by Quan Jinbei’s glare, so cold it could freeze someone to death.
He choked, abruptly changing the subject, "Little auntie, you’re truly the ideal woman in my mind! If I were a girl, I would definitely learn from you and strive to be as outstanding as you."
"Cough, cough." Shi Yaoguang almost choked on her saliva.
She looked at him helplessly, "Don’t forget you’re a boy right now."
Ming Yan pursed his lips, shyly smiling, "Ming Yan knows he’s a boy, but it’s a pity..."
"Since Ming Yan is a boy, and there’s a difference between men and women, no matter how much I feel little auntie is outstanding, dazzling, especially..." Another flurry of flattery followed.
In the end, he concluded, "Since little auntie is uncle’s woman, Ming Yan cannot overstep the bounds and can only in his heart—"
Quan Jinbei interrupted emotionlessly, "You still want to, in your heart?"
Ming Yan: "..."

This is too difficult.
He had always known his uncle had strong possessiveness, but he never imagined it to be this intense!
Whenever little auntie was the topic, anything he said would be wrong—how was he supposed to speak?
It would be better to just cut his vocal cords and say nothing at all.
Quan Jinbei raised an eyebrow, "Are you cursing me in your heart?"
"No, no." Ming Yan waved his hands repeatedly.
Quan Jinbei: "Your face tells me that’s not what you’re thinking."
Ming Yan: "..."

He looked helplessly towards Shi Yaoguang, who was enjoying the show, the intent in his eyes couldn’t be more obvious.
Shi Yaoguang, seeing his almost tearful expression, coughed lightly and nudged Quan Jinbei, "Third Master, don’t be so fierce, you’re scaring him."
Quan Jinbei glanced at her and murmured indifferently.
Ming Yan thought Shi Yaoguang’s attempt to pacify had been ineffective and was feeling uneasy.
After waiting for quite a while, Jinbei didn’t express any dissatisfaction, which finally made him breathe a sigh of relief.
At the same time, it was only then that he noticed Shi Yaoguang had actually given him a little push!
And yet, Jinbei got pushed and didn’t even get angry!
Up to this point, he had a whole new understanding of Yaoguang’s importance in Jinbei’s heart.
Ming Yan silently congratulated himself in his heart.
Luckily, he had done his homework and hadn’t harbored any inappropriate thoughts towards Yaoguang.
Otherwise...
Tsk, losing a layer of skin would be the least of his worries.
Yaoguang was unaware of his thoughts. At that moment, her gaze had already fallen on Jinbei, "Why are you here?"
"To see you."
"Huh?"
Yaoguang was a bit slow to react.
They had been apart for just one day. Surely, there was no need to specifically come to see her, right?
Jinbei raised his eyebrow slightly, "Is there a problem?"
Yaoguang honestly replied, "A little."
"Where’s the problem?"
"Well..." Yaoguang thought for a moment before saying, "Don’t you think this is a bit too dramatic?"
Jinbei replied, "I missed you, so I came to find you. Is there anything wrong with that?"
Hearing their conversation, Ming Yan very obsequiously added, "Auntie, isn’t there a saying that goes, ’A single day apart feels like three seasons long’? I think uncle exactly feels this way. He missed you and personally came to find you. Isn’t that nice?"
As he said this, he cupped his cheeks and made an envious expression: "Uncle’s affection for auntie has even made me, a grown man, jealous."
Jinbei gave him a sidelong glance, "Jealous?"
Ming Yan had no clue what he meant by that and could only nod.
Then...
He heard Jinbei say, "If you’re envious, go find yourself a husband."
Ming Yan: "???"
Ming Yan: "!!!"
"Un, uncle?"
Ming Yan was in triple shock. He had never imagined his uncle would say something like that.
Especially since Jinbei’s expression was as solemn as could be, showing no indication he was joking.
Yaoguang, seeing him looking like his eyeballs were about to pop out, lowered her voice to remind him, "Third Master, don’t scare him."
Jinbei unchangingly said, "He’s brave enough, he won’t be scared."
Ming Yan could only agree, "Uncle is right."
After saying that, he found an excuse and quickly ran off.
"And you say you didn’t scare him?" Yaoguang said, watching his retreating figure with teasing eyes.
Jinbei was still composed, "That only proves he’s too cowardly."
Having said that, he shifted the topic, "How does it feel to film a commercial for the first time?"
Yaoguang nodded, her face brimming with a confident smile, "Feels great."
After saying that, she winked at him, "You couldn’t have come all this way just to see me, could you, Third Master?"
Jinbei counterquestioned, "Otherwise?"
"Hmm..." Yaoguang pondered, "I don’t think you are the type to be so lovestruck, Third Master."
"Then you are mistaken," Jinbei said as he took off his glasses, his deep gaze fixed on her, "Right now... my mind is full of you."
