Chapter 1373: 1373 The Xiao Family in the capital 1 (requesting monthly votes) Chapter 1373: 1373 The Xiao Family in the capital 1 (requesting monthly votes) “Okay.” She crouched down, letting his arm rest on her shoulder, supporting him as they walked toward the room.

He was indeed heavy, genuinely so.

She couldn’t help but recall the night he was on top of her, frantically desiring her.

Her face flushed red.

Xiao Yishan, leaning on her shoulder, with her petite frame almost entirely in his embrace, naturally thought of the night he had wanted her as well, a warmth stirring in his lower abdomen.

He wanted her again.

But with thoughts aside, he dared not lay a finger on her.

After helping him to lie down on the bed, Tao Meijiao wasn’t reassured, so she had a servant prepare a bowl of medicine for him.

He expressed his thanks.

A night of vigil had brought them closer.

In the following days, Tao Meijiao and Xiao Yishan managed to get along quite pleasantly.

Chang Haotian came to the Xiao Mansion several times, uninvited each time.

Su Qingyue paid him no attention.

Xiao Yuchuan got jealous, and at night she would suffer, almost nightly crushed by him until dawn.

In the blink of an eye, five days had passed.

Early in the morning, Su Qingyue got up, and Xiao Yuchuan helped her with her clothes strap, “Wife, how come every day I look at you, you seem more beautiful than the day before.”

“Your mouth sure knows how to talk,” she said with a slight smile.

“Not just talk, but also kiss you.” He kissed her red lips, “Dear, these past few days Miss Tao doesn’t seem to be rejecting the second brother anymore.

When Meijiao was disheartened, the second brother wasn’t foolish and knew how to make a move.

Dear, we can’t let Chang Haotian find an opportunity to strike.”

“Mm,” she nodded.

He changed into his usual clothes.

She teased, “Third brother, your biological parents are arriving today, don’t you want to dress up a bit to welcome them?”

Having been with her for so long, he naturally understood that handsome meant attractive, “I still feel like I can’t possibly be the legitimate son.

Wife, let’s not bother about it.” He encircled her slender waist, “Dear, tell me the truth, if I’m not some legitimate son, would you be disappointed?”

“I wouldn’t,” she said, “I’d actually be happy.”

“Then whether I am or not, I won’t be the legitimate son of the Xiao Family in the capital anymore.” He hugged her contentedly, “As long as you’re happy, I’d wish to pluck the moon from the sky for you.”

“It’s daytime right now, there’s no moon.”

“Then I’ll help you pick the sun…”

“Sounds good.” She surprisingly agreed immediately.

He said with a smile, “Dear, just give me some time, and I will surely pluck the sun down for you.”

She laughed without saying a word.

Was the third brother really going to ascend to heaven to pluck the sun?

At that moment, Maid Yinzhu came to report, “Young Lady, son-in-law, there’s a middle-aged couple outside the door asking to see you, claiming to be the family head of the Xiao Family in the capital, Xiao Chonghuan, and his Lady.

The carriage they rode in was quite impressive, and they have a group of guards that look not to be trifled with, all very stern and impressive.

Even I got scared with just one glance.”

They knew they were coming all along.

Su Qingyue and Xiao Yuchuan had no particular reaction.

“Let them wait in the hall,” Qingyue said indifferently.

“Yes.” Yinzhu took the order and left.

Xiao Yuchuan couldn’t believe it, “The family head of the Xiao Family in the capital and his Lady really did come.”

“Yes.” Su Qingyue took his hand and started walking outside, “Let’s go see them.”

“Wife, I feel a bit uneasy.”

Su Qingyue, however, was completely unperturbed, “What’s there to be uneasy about?

If anyone should be uneasy, it’s your biological parents.

They have vast power, yet for some reason, they lost their own son for so many years.”

The two of them walked together towards the hall.
