Chapter 212 - Forehead Flick

Yu Dong was stupefied she didn't know what to say to either Chen Mi or Yu Mai, she could only pat Chen Mi on the back and look at Yu Mai who was standing behind Chen Mi with an air of someone sacrificing themselves for the greater good.

Yu Dong "…." ?? What was the meaning of this? Just what the hell happened to Yu Mai when she went out to work. Yu Dong calmed Chen Mi for a few minutes once he was calm enough, she healed the superficial injuries that he received while saving Yu Mai from his constant attacks of self-torture, once she was done.. she checked Chen Mi thoroughly and then solemnly patted his back " you are alright, stop crying now," then she thought about something and added " Be good, I will make you some mango pudding later on"

Once Chen Mi heard Yu Dong say that she will treat him to a mango pudding, half of his grievance vanished and he happily smiled as he turned around and came to stand beside Shen Li and Ye Liu, the two stared at Chen Mi for half a day and shook their heads. Forget it, he was still young but to think that a little boy of seven made him cry like this… it was a bit shameful.  But then again Chen Mi had to take care of Yu Mai and little bun together, so maybe he was stimulated beyond his limits?

And Yu Mai was indeed behaving differently.

Yu Dong crouched to Yu Mai's level and softly asked, she didn't know why Yu Mai was trying to get her to hit him but she couldn't just hit him just because he asked, she needed to rationally get to the bottom of the matter because she knew that even if she hit Yu Mai, he will cry later on anyway. He was afraid of pain the most, though he was a sensible child, it didn't take much for him to cry - if someone took food from his bowl, he will cry and if someone hit him, he will cry louder - even when it didn't hurt he will cry like the world was ending.

And honestly, she was a bit too tired to listen to his earth-shattering cries. 

" Mai, what's wrong? Tell sister, did someone say anything to you?"  Yu Dong didn't want to pass the judgment without getting to the bottom of the matter, she was an honest officer, after all, she wouldn't just listen to heresy and beat someone just because they acted a bit naughty especially when the other person was her brother " Tell me honestly, I will not get angry at you"

" But I want you to get angry at me!" said Yu Mai, tears shining in his eyes. He was so startled by the fact that he had a stomach in his tummy that he couldn't stop crying, thus, his eyes had gone all red from crying, so even though he was trying to put on a rather fierce appearance, he was only making the hearts of the four adults in front of him. In the mind of Yu Dong and her husbands, they only had one thought in their mind - Yu Mai was too cute.

Not knowing that his fierce appearance was being mistaken as an adorable appearance, Yu Mai continued to put on a fierce scowl that looked like a pout " Elder sister, if you want me to be a good child beat me! Or… or … or I will trouble my brothers in law every day!"

The little Yu Mai's cute appearance shot through everyone's heart including the angry Chen Mi. Clutching their squealing hearts, all the three brothers in law looked at Yu Mai and simultaneously said " Mai, you can trouble us as much as you want"

Yu the bad child Mai was stunned at what was happening why wasn't his fierceness working? If Yu Mai knew that his fierceness was being taken as him acting cute who knows how long he will cry.

Seeing that his brothers in law were not at all fazed, Yu Mai thought that there was a severe need for his plans to change so he looked at his elder sister and threatened " Elder sister if you don't hit me... I will break all the plates in the house and I will also not feed Mr Goat"

Yu Dong was both amused and angered by Yu Mai, the little brat was growing up. He even learned how to threaten her huh! So she half-heartedly raised her hand and smacked Yu Mai's butt lightly. The hit was so soft that even Yu Mai couldn't feel it, so how will the baby in his tummy feel it? If the baby doesn't realize that he wasn't being careful, how will he go?

Yu Mai was so anxious that he felt like he was sitting on a hot pan, he couldn't stand still and was hopping in one place like a little rabbit.

Yu Dong arched a brow at his antics " Mai did you learn something new? You wanted to show this to your sister?"

" No!, Mai ..Mai wants elder sister to hit me hard"  Yu Mai was afraid that if he kept delaying the matter then things would become too troublesome and he will have to give birth to the baby. So he didn't even hold back a little as he loudly exclaimed " Elder sister hit me hard like you hit bad people, sister Ruru told me that you hit bad people really badly,hit me like that"

Yu Dong felt her lips twitch, did this brat even knows what he is asking if she hit him like those bad people he was talking about, not even a single strand of his hair will be seen, but of course, she will not do that to her brother. Thus, Yu Dong simply flicked his forehead hard and stood up straight " There now, happy?" Though she asked, Yu Dong didn't wait for Yu Mai to answer her question, she stood up and walked inside the house, she was too tired, first, she wanted to take a long bath and then take a short nap before getting started on the dinner.

Yu Mai who was abandoned by his reliable elder sister felt like a cold wind was blowing past him... why was his sister so cruel? Boohoo!
