Chapter 331: Is Toffeecito’s Dad at Home?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After dinner, Shen Xi cleaned up and lay on the bed fretting over the situation.
Old Shen had already begun to suspect Li Yuan’s identity. It was impossible to hide it forever, but she had not locked him down yet!

If her parents found out and said something to him, all her efforts of pursuing him would be for naught.
Her phone vibrated.
Toffeecito’s Dad: Are you asleep?
Shen Xi laid on her bed and typed, “No.”
Toffeecito’s Dad: Go to bed early.
Shen Xi: Okay.
Toffeecito’s Dad: Goodnight.
Shen Xi sent a voice note. “Goodnight.”
Not long after, Li Yuan also sent a voice note. “Goodnight.”
The man’s voice was already beautiful, magnetic, and alluring that it made her heart melt. When he said “goodnight”, it was also a little hoarse.
Shen Xi put it to her ear and listened to it over and over again. She held the phone and rolled around happily on the bed.
In the villa next door.
“Boss, this document…” Kun Lun pushed the door open and heard a soft and sweet goodnight from the girl. It sounded so sweet that he could feel it in his heart.
The man across from him held the phone in his hand and had a silly smile on his face. The tenderness in the man’s eyes could drown someone.
Li Yuan put his phone on the desk. His face had returned to its usual coldness, but the tenderness in his eyes was still unconcealed. He said in a deep voice, “Give it to me.”
When Kun Lun handed over the documents, he accidentally swept a glance at the phone and saw the name on it: “Toffeecito’s Mom”.
‘OMG!’
If he had not seen it with his own eyes, he would not have believed that the living King of Hell would actually be such a softie.
No wonder people said that those in love were fools.
Boss was not even dating yet and was already like this.
If they start dating later, Kun Lun would have to endure seeing their lovey-dovey faces every day…

That night, some people were happy, while others were frustrated and could not sleep.
Shen Zhangqing had already begun to be suspicious. After all, he had raised Shen Xi as his own daughter, so she could not hide anything from him. Even if the neighbor was a disabled person, his daughter was just too attentive.
When Yun Jinping returned, it was already past midnight. She took a shower and walked into the bedroom gingerly. The person lying on the bed suddenly sat up.
“Honey, why aren’t you asleep?”
“Darling, I can’t sleep…” Shen Zhangqing looked at her with a sad face. “Who do you think our neighbor is?”
Yun Jinping said, “Didn’t Xixi say that he’s disabled?”
Shen Zhangqing heard it and knew that he was more alert than his wife. “Don’t you think that Xixi is being too nice to him? Even if she sympathized with him, there’s no need to talk to him every day!”
Yun Jinping thought he was overthinking it and said, “It’s not every day. It’s been more than a month since they spoke. She’s just curious in the beginning.”
Shen Zhangqing sighed. “She was holding Toffeecito and talking to him on the wall again today!”
“Didn’t he take care of Toffeecito? What’s wrong with them talking? Is he not allowed to see Toffeecito?” Yun Jinping thought that her husband was being paranoid. “This child is soft-hearted, kind-hearted, and empathetic, so she sympathized with her disabled neighbor and gave him a little more attention.”
Besides, their neighbor was an old man and must be about the same age as Old Shen. Xixi liked handsome boys and not older men.
“Some old men specialize in tricking little girls with their sweet talk. I’m afraid that our Xixi will get scammed!” Shen Zhangqing was still worried and felt that it was more than met the eye.
“Are you going through menopause?” Yun Jinping laughed. “You told me last time that Xixi was in love with Qingxuan, then last time, you told me that Xixi might like Lil’ Yu. You get suspicious as long as she gets close to any boy…”
Since their daughter was growing up, Shen Zhangqing was just afraid that his daughter would be snatched away by another man. When he saw a boy of a similar age getting a little closer to Shen Xi, he just felt that his daughter would be taken away.
Shen Zhangqing was adamant that his daughter was still young and should not date at her age. He lay on the bed and muttered, “I must see what this neighbor looks like.”
Yun Jinping smiled helplessly. After cleaning up, she went to bed too.
The neighbor had moved in for more than half a year, but she had not seen him before. She could not climb up the wall like her daughter to see him.
When her husband mentioned it, it piqued her interest in how the neighbor looked and how old he was.

No. 4 High School resumed classes on the eighth day of the New Year.
On the night of the seventh day, the last episode of “The Smiling Nation” was aired.
Pei Xu and Song Wenye with a group of classmates from the international class went over to Shen Xi’s home to watch the grand finale. It was the same as the last time. They brought a variety of barbecue tools and ingredients, ready to celebrate.
Shen Xi took a small stool and sat at the door. She watched the group of people in the yard and sighed helplessly.
Yun Jinping was not at home and Yu Yuanxi took a break from school to shoot for a series. He had just joined the cast last night. Everyone was clueless in the kitchen, let alone barbecue.
Song Wenye carried a plate of grilled meat and handed Shen Xi a lamb skewer. “You’re the master of this house, so shouldn’t you help out?”
“I didn’t ask you guys to come over.” Shen Xi took a bite of the lamb skewer and spit it out. It was not cooked. The lamb was still bloody!
Song Wenye took a look and grabbed it. She said seriously, “It doesn’t look cooked yet. Let me grill it for a while longer.”
Shen Xi’s eye twitched. ‘Great!’
“Why didn’t you ask me over for the barbecue?” The door was suddenly pushed open, and Yu Qiubai walked in.
Shen Xi was about to tell him to get lost, but she swallowed her words and thought, ‘Forget it, everyone’s here, so one more makes no difference.’
Pei Xu saw him coming in and was surprisingly not angry. He only glanced at him and shouted, “Come over here and start grilling!”
Yu Qiubai waved at Shen Xi, flashed his foxy smile, and went over to help grill the meat.
Moments later, Song Wenye came over with a plate of barbecue and sat next to Shen Xi. While eating, she said, “Yu Qiubai grilled this. Although he’s not a great person, he’s pretty good at barbecue!”
Shen Xi was watching him grill and knew that he must be good. He looked like a professional pitmaster and was completely different from all the other amateurs.
Song Wenye also looked at the opposite wall and nudged Shen Xi with an ambiguous face. “Is Toffeecito’s dad at home? Why don’t you invite him over to have some fun?”
When Shen Xi heard the words “Toffeecito’s Dad”, her heart melted and her eyes looked so sweet. “He’s not home.”
Song Wenye smiled more ambiguously and leaned into her. “Have you two confirmed your relationship?”
‘OMG, look at her smile! It’s so sweet that I’m gonna get diabetes!’
Shen Xi shook her head. She would like to but now was not the time because she was not 18 yet. Li Yuan would certainly think that she was too young.
