Chapter 462: Chapter 471 The Girl’s Show-off

Li Yifei brought groceries home, and Chu Xiaoyao burst into giggles while Little Yue’s face instantly turned red. When the two girls were together, they would chat without any reservations, but now, as they were talking about a grown man like Li Yifei and saw him come in, Little Yue couldn’t help but blush.

Li Yifei had no idea that the girls had just been discussing such a topic and laughed, "What are you chatting about? Seems like you’re having lots of fun."

"Uncle, Xiaoyao and I just made a bet, and we bet that..." Chu Xiaoyao immediately began excitedly, but before she could finish, Little Yue hurriedly interrupted, "We were just kidding," and then dragged Chu Xiaoyao aside.

"Little Yue, what’s up? Are you admitting defeat already?"

"I..." Little Yue stiffened, ready to say something defiant, but upon glancing at Li Yifei, her courage drained away instantly. Pouting, she said, "Fine, I admit defeat."

"Haha...then hurry up and bark like a dog," Chu Xiaoyao said with a smug shake of her head.

"I can bark, but you can’t tell anyone about our bet," Little Yue bargained.

"Alright, I know," Chu Xiaoyao giggled, seemingly making the promise without much sincerity.

With Chu Xiaoyao’s urging, Little Yue finally barked three times. Her voice was crisp, and even her attempt at barking sounded quite pleasant. Li Yifei wasn’t interested in the girls’ bet, as long as Chu Xiaoyao was happy, cheerful, and no longer that sad, that was all that mattered.

It was getting late, and Li Yifei started cooking dinner. Before long, the aroma of the food wafted out from the kitchen. Little Yue had not expected much from Li Yifei’s culinary skills, but now, smelling the fragrance, she couldn’t help but express her surprise, "Xiaoyao, your uncle seems to really know his way around cooking, huh?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Xiaoyao became even more proud and said, "That’s right, my uncle’s cooking skills are beyond reproach. Even a five-star hotel’s chef might not make food tastier than my uncle’s. Once you’ve tried it, I guarantee you’ll want to come here often to enjoy a meal."

Little Yue pursed her lips and said, "Aren’t you exaggerating a bit? If that were true, your uncle would be off working as a chef at a five-star hotel. The chefs there are quite impressive, you know. I heard they make tens of thousands a month."

"Pfft, who do you think my uncle is? What’s so great about a five-star hotel anyway? It still just serves people. My uncle only cooks for those he cares about, it’s not just anyone who gets to eat his food."

Little Yue’s pout reached all the way to her ears as she teased, "Yeah, yeah, your uncle cooks only for you. Are you satisfied now?"

"No need to be so envious. You’ll see my uncle’s skills for yourself soon. Then, when you bite your tongue, don’t blame me," Chu Xiaoyao chuckled.

Of course, Little Yue didn’t believe that Li Yifei had such high culinary skills. Her mother was from the Ye family, and though her father wasn’t from an influential clan, he was quite successful in government and held a significant place in Mile City. With a refined lifestyle, she considered herself a girl with discerning taste.

When Li Yifei finished cooking and called them to eat, Little Yue had a few bites and, though she wouldn’t admit it openly, she had to acknowledge Li Yifei’s cooking skills. It wasn’t just Chu Xiaoyao’s big talk; the fact that he could bring out such flavors in homestyle dishes was indeed impressive.

"Xiaoyao, are you not going anywhere this holiday?" Little Yue mumbled while eating.

"In a while, I’ll be traveling with my uncle. Do you plan to come over every day for free meals? Let me tell you, my uncle is very busy. He doesn’t have all that spare time to cook for you," Xiaoyao replied.

Little Yue swallowed her mouthful and grabbed a huge bite with her chopsticks. Before putting it in her mouth, she found the time to say, "I’m just worried you’d be lonely. I thought to find you to hang out."

"Oh, please, you’re just being a stubborn duck, not admitting you’re here for the free meals," Chu Xiaoyao giggled. She felt very proud that Li Yifei was making a good impression in front of her friend. "Alright, I’ll do you a favor. Come over every day to keep me company. But just to be clear, no dinner provided, you’ll just be a third wheel then."

"I got it. I’m not as thick-skinned as you are."

After the meal, Li Yifei didn’t expect Chu Xiaoyao to help him clean up. He busied himself with the dishes in the kitchen while Chu Xiaoyao and Little Yue ran off to the bedroom.

Little Yue lay on the bed, rubbing her round belly, and said, "I’m so stuffed. It seems having an uncle like yours is pretty nice. I’m kind of jealous."

Chu Xiaoyao lay on the bed as well, boasting, "Of course. My uncle has a lot going for him. The more time I spend with him, the more I like him. I’d be willing to do anything for him."

"Yeah, you’d do anything. You’d even sacrifice yourself. By the way, do you guys wear clothes to bed at night?" Little Yue turned her head, grinning at Chu Xiaoyao. Girls their age were extremely curious about such matters.

Chu Xiaoyao lifted her chin proudly and challenged, "What do you think?"

"I bet you do wear clothes. It must be so awkward sleeping next to a man without wearing any," Little Yue speculated.

"What’s so awkward about it? You really are naive," Chu Xiaoyao pouted and said, "It’s really uncomfortable to wear clothes when you’re with a man. You don’t know how enjoyable it is to hug an uncle and touch his strong body."

"You really have thick skin," Little Yue also pouted, glanced at the door first, then turned sideways, and whispered to Chu Xiaoyao, "Xiaoyao, do you really plan to do that with the uncle? He’s so much older than you, and you’re not even in college yet. By the time you graduate, he’ll be in his thirties. Could you really be his wife?"

"So what if I can’t, I just can’t. Anyway, I like the uncle right now, and I’m happy when I’m with him."

Little Yue hesitated for a moment and said, "Xiaoyao, you really need to think this through. A girl’s first time, once it’s gone, it’s gone. The uncle seems nice, but as a playmate, that’s fine. But giving yourself to him completely, I think that’s somewhat of a loss."

"Whatever, you don’t know anything. I’m getting the better deal here. With Uncle being such a flirtatious man, lots of women are after him—company CEOs, flight attendants, police officers. Each one is stunningly beautiful. If I don’t make my move early, I won’t stand a chance later."

Little Yue didn’t believe what Chu Xiaoyao said, thinking that she was just infatuated with Li Yifei right now. If she knew that her cousin Ye Yunzhu also had an affair with Li Yifei and was even pregnant with his child, she didn’t know what she would think.

"Do you want some fruit?" Li Yifei came to the door, smiling and asking the two.

Chu Xiaoyao immediately sat up and said to Li Yifei, "Uncle, come here for a sec."

Li Yifei walked over to her side and asked, "What’s up?"

Chu Xiaoyao knelt by the bed, suddenly hugged Li Yifei’s neck, and with a "smack" planted a kiss on his face, saying, "Uncle, I just wanted to kiss you."

Li Yifei was suddenly at a loss for words, with Chu Xiaoyao behaving like this in front of another little girl, he was quite embarrassed, and said, "Stop fooling around."

Chu Xiaoyao didn’t let go of Li Yifei’s neck, giggling and saying, "Uncle, I just like you. Kiss me back, or else I won’t let you go."

Li Yifei was really speechless. Without guessing, he knew Chu Xiaoyao was just showing off in front of Little Yue. But Little Yue was Ye Yunzhu’s cousin, and if he ended up with Ye Yunzhu, and had to see Little Yue again, it would be even more awkward. Taking care of Chu Xiaoyao was one thing, but explaining after kissing her in front of Little Yue seemed impossible.

"Uncle, kiss me," Chu Xiaoyao swayed, rubbing her chest against Li Yifei’s, a wronged expression on her face.

Seeing Chu Xiaoyao like this and fearing she would be sad again, he finally kissed her on the face and said, "Okay now, go play with your classmate."

"I knew the uncle was the best. Tonight, I’ll serve you well," Chu Xiaoyao giggled, let go of Li Yifei’s neck, but before she sat down, she suddenly reached out and touched between Li Yifei’s legs.

Li Yifei broke out in a sweat, and Little Yue was watching them, mouth agape, having clearly seen Chu Xiaoyao’s action.

Li Yifei knew this would definitely be a big problem later on, but there was nothing he could do now except to give Chu Xiaoyao a helpless glare and walk out.

"See, didn’t I tell you I’ve touched it?" Chu Xiaoyao then turned to Little Yue and proudly boasted.

Little Yue nodded repeatedly, admiring Chu Xiaoyao’s audacity and feeling full of curiosity. If Chu Xiaoyao really did it with Li Yifei, she would have to ask in detail about how it felt.

With Little Yue there to spar with, Chu Xiaoyao was indeed in a good mood that day, and even when her mind occasionally drifted, Little Yue would immediately find a topic to engage in playful banter, making Li Yifei quite appreciative of Little Yue. The little girl was clearly trying to distract Chu Xiaoyao, not wanting her to think of her deceased parents. Her ability to read the room and subtly shift Chu Xiaoyao’s attention was indeed impressive.

Having a friend like Little Yue was truly fortunate for Chu Xiaoyao. It’s rare in life to have such a confidante, and even rarer to make a lifelong friend.

By three o’clock, Little Yue suggested leaving, and Chu Xiaoyao walked her out, making plans to meet again the next day.

As soon as Little Yue left, Chu Xiaoyao’s spirits quickly dimmed because Li Yifei didn’t have much to talk to her about, and she was no longer chirping away at him like before.

However, fortunately, Su Yiyi returned soon after. Although Su Yiyi wasn’t much of a talker, the two girls had Li Yifei as a common topic to bond over, so they still found things to talk about. Chu Xiaoyao’s mood started to improve considerably.

Chu Xiaoyao brought her laptop, and Li Yifei had bought one for Su Yiyi as well, although he rarely used his own.

In times of sorrow, what one fears most is the nighttime, so Li Yifei suggested the three of them play computer games together to prevent Chu Xiaoyao from thinking about her late parents.

After playing for a while, Su Yiyi went to read in the living room, while Li Yifei and Chu Xiaoyao played until after ten before they both took showers and prepared to rest.
