Cloe was leaving the hospital when a little boy of about 5 or 6 years bumped into her. Cloe looked down and the little boy turned his head up to look at her. Seeing his cute face, Cloe smiled at him and the little boy was instantly charmed by that smile.
"Sam, stop running in the hospital!" came an angry voice from behind.
The little boy was scared by the voice so much that he immediately hid behind Cloe and clutched her pants as if seeking protection from her. Seeing his frightened look, Cloe frowned. She placed her hand on the little boy's head to reassure him.
And then she faced the man whose voice scared the little boy.
Cui Xukun was taken aback when he saw Cloe here. But then his eyes moved to the little boy hiding behind her. He beckoned him to come over saying, "Sammy, come here."
The little boy shook his head, "No!"
"Can't you talk nicely?" asked Cloe seeing how Cui Xukun was still speaking in a rebuking manner to the little boy. "He is just a kid."
Cui Xukun almost rolled his eyes at those words. Just a kid? He was not just a kid and Cui Xukun knew it better than anyone! It was also his act of collecting sympathy from strangers that made Cui Xukun believe that he wasn't just a kid. Which kid planned like this?
"You shouldn't fall for his looks," said Cui Xukun to Cloe, patiently. "Sammy, it's not good to disturb strangers. Get back here, right now!"
The little boy called, Sam made a face as if he was about to cry which tugged at Cloe's heart.
"You're scaring him," said Cloe. She crouched down before the little boy and hugged him to soothe him. The little boy hugged her neck with his small arms and as he placed his chin on her shoulder, he looked at Cui Xukun with a smug look. He definitely didn't look like someone who was about to cry.
His look made Cui Xukun seem like he was being provoked but he was helpless!
Cloe unbeknownst to this, stroked the little boy's head lovingly, "It's okay, baby. No need to cry."
The little boy rubbed his face on her neck making her tickle. Cloe found the boy too cute to resist. And because she found him too cute, she felt even more displeased with Cui Xukun. She glared at him saying, "Don't talk to the little boy like that. Are you even human? How can you even raise your voice on a child?"
The little boy hugged her leg from behind, seeking protection as if he depended on her. And Cloe liked this dependence a lot.
"As a father, you should be protecting your son!" she was finding Cui Xukun particularly irksome. "Even if he makes a mistake, you should be patient with him. He is your son. If you teach him with patience, how will he not understand it?"
Cui Xukun stared at her wide-eyed, "Wait! I think there is a misunderstanding here. He is not my son."
"Wuwu! I just made a small mistake and Daddy doesn't want me anymore! Bad, Daddy!"
Cui Xukun gaped at this little devil who was pushing him into a corner. Wasn't he already unlucky enough? From the time he saw Cloe with Shui Xian, he already knew he had no chance with Cloe. And that's why even after meeting her here, he wasn't feeling any particular happiness. Instead, he felt like life was playing a joke on him. He wanted to forget about her now and life brought her right in front of his eyes.
Even worse was the fact that now his devil nephew was even making him seem like a bad person in her eyes. It was okay if he couldn't be with her but why was his nephew trying to crumble his image before her?
He was still SINGLE! How did he become a father now?!
"Sammy, don't talk nonsense!" warned Cui Xukun as he gave the little boy a hard stare.
As Cloe felt the little boy's arms tightening around her leg as if he was scared by Cui Xukun, Cloe's heart also clenched. She felt so bad for the little boy who looked so vulnerable.
"How can a father even say that?" she questioned. "Just because your son is playful, you don't even want to acknowledge him now? How ruthless! People like you don't deserve to be a father at all!"
After that was Cloe's one-man show. She insulted Cui Xukun in a way that the poor guy was feeling like digging a hole to bury into. Why didn't he know that she was so good with words? Especially when it came to insulting someone?
After Cloe was tired and felt thirsty, only then did she take a break. Seeing that, Cui Xukun looked around and found a vending machine. He rushed over to get a water bottle and offered it to Cloe, "You must be thirsty now. Have some water, you can continue later on." Then he turned to his little nephew and said, "And little son, I'm sorry. Daddy was wrong for taking you here. Don't worry, I've called your mommy. She'll be here soon."
The little boy's face paled when he learned that his mother was on the way. He left Cloe's side and rushed into Cui Xukun, "Uncle, don't do this to me. Mommy is gonna be angry."
"Well, I can't do anything about that," said Cui Xukun. "I brought you here for vaccination because she told me to. But now since you're so scared of the injection, I can't control you. I'm a useless father after all. So, I'll let your mommy take the charge again."
The little boy felt like he dug his own grave by being mischievous. Why did he forget that his Uncle wasn't as simple as his father?
He turned to Cloe and apologized, "I'm sorry, pretty sister. I was just running because I didn't want to get an injection. Uncle was mad because I ran all over the hospital to avoid him. He isn't my daddy." He held Cui Xukun's hand and said, "Uncle, I'll get the injection now. I promise I won't run again. Just ask mommy to not come."
Cloe was surprised by this turn of events and now Cui Xukun was pleased to his nephew like this. Indeed, using his sister's name was enough to make people as straight as an arrow!
"This..." Cloe didn't know what to say and remembering how she insulted Cui Xukun just now, she flushed in embarrassment.
Cui Xukun smiled at her not minding anything she said to him. Instead, he said, "I'm sorry. My nephew is a bit mischievous. I apologize to you for what he just did." He even bowed his head slightly to show his sincerity which took Cloe by surprise. He picked up his nephew and added, "We should leave now. Sammy, say bye to the pretty sister."
"Bye, pretty sister!" The little boy waved his hand at Cloe with a smile on his face.
Cloe's heart melted at the sight of his smile and she even forgot all about what just happened. It was really easy to fall into the cuteness trap of kids and she was a sucker for cuteness! It was no wonder that she had taken an instant liking to Hyson.
