Secretary Chen has a Headache Again Today!!! - Chapter 20

Chapter 20 – Mr. & Mrs. Lian

“Thank you, Senior. I’m here.”

“Xunxun!”

The car stopped in front of the Lian family’s garden. As soon as Chen Xun got out of the car, he was instantly embraced by a soft and petite person.

After a moment of daze, he only heard his adoptive father’s awkward cough and another man’s helpless chuckle, “A’Qiao, don’t hug so tightly, you’ll scare Chen Xun.”

Mo Qiao reluctantly let go of Chen Xun, looked up at Chen Xun’s flushed cheeks, and gently pinched Chen Xun’s face with both hands, “Oh, I haven’t seen you for so long, how come you have lost weight?”

“Now, I have to ask A’Feng how he took care of you!”

Mo Qiao took out her cell phone and actually intended to call Lian Xufeng, but was stopped by Chen Xun, “Madam, it has nothing to do with the young master. I just have a poor appetite in the summer. So, I don’t eat much.”

“Madam, Master.” Uncle Zhong stepped forward and said, “You must have been exhausted from the long journey. You should go inside and rest.”

Mo Qiao pouted, took Chen Xun’s hand and pulled him into the house, and said to Zhong Bo as they walked: “Uncle Zhong, I told you not to call me Madam, you see you have taught Xun Xun a bad lesson.”

Chen Xun sighed helplessly and followed Mo Qiao, “Madam…”

“Call me auntie!” Mo Qiao pouted. “Really? When you were little, you used to obediently call me auntie, but now, you’ve become more and more disobedient.”

Mo Qiao is nearly fifty years old and has been well maintained. The cute little expression on her face does not seem out of place at all.

Lian Yan walked to the other side of Chen Xun and gave him an embarrassed smile.

‘Please bear with it.’

Chen Xun responded with a gentle smile.

Mo Qiao pulled Chen Xun to sit down and pushed the black tea brought by Zhong Bo in front of Chen Xun, “Have a sip of tea first. There is also dessert. Zhong Bo, sit down and eat together.”

Zhong Bo stood by the dining table, shaking his head firmly as always.

Lian Yan sat next to Mo Qiao and asked the cook to bring a few more desserts for the two of them to choose from.

“This milk roll is your favorite.” Mo Qiao took a small piece of milk roll and gave it to Chen Xun, “Ah——”

“Ah.” Lian Yan gently took his wife’s hand and took the piece of cake into his mouth, “Let me have this bite.”

“Oh, you are so hateful!” Mo Qiao clenched her fist and hit Lian Yan.

Chen Xun couldn’t help but smile as he looked at how affectionate they were.

The relationship between the master and the lady has always been very good. It is said that they were childhood sweethearts who were well matched. When they grew up, they split into Alpha and Omega. They naturally fell in love and got married, and gave birth to Lian Xufeng. A few years later, they gave birth to Lian Xuyu.

“Oh, Xunxun!” Mo Qiao remembered something and quickly turned to look at Chen Xun, “Who was the person who sent you back just now?”

She became curious and stared at Chen Xun with her eyes twinkling, trying to see something in his eyes.

Chen Xun hesitated for a moment and glanced at his adoptive father Zhongbo on the other side, who also had a slightly expectant look in his eyes.

‘Senior, I’m sorry, let me use you for a while…’

Chen Xun sorted out an excuse in his mind before speaking slowly: “He was my senior in college and also my blind date.”

“Blind date?!”

Mo Qiao was horrified and hurried to see Zhong Bo, “Uncle Zhong?! How old is Xunxun? He’s already going on a blind date?!”

She quickly put her arm around Chen Xun’s shoulders and shouted, “No, no, you’re not old enough yet. How can you get married? I won’t allow it!”

“A’Qiao.” Lian Yan covered his face and held his wife’s wrist to calm her down.

They had two children. The first one was Lian Xufeng. That boy had been restless, playful and active since he was young, like a big devil. They finally gave birth to a girl. Thinking that she would be quieter, they named her “Yu”. But Lian Xuyu turned out to be noisier than her brother. At a young age, she was invincible in the kindergarten, which made the couple anxious.

Only Chen Xun has been quiet and gentle since childhood, completely different from the two lively demons. Moreover, he could easily control Lian Xufeng and Lian Xuyu. Those two, in front of Chen Xun, become well-behaved kittens. In the eyes of the couple, Chen Xun is much cuter than their own children!

Mo Qiao lay in her husband’s arms, crying sadly, “It’s all because of A’Feng. If they were a better match. Then, A’Feng could marry Xunxun and then, I would be able to see Xunxun every day.”

Her unintentional words made Chen Xun’s heart ache.

Zhong Bo glanced at his adopted son and said nothing. Instead, he handed Mo Qiao a clean handkerchief to wipe her tears.

“Madam, please don’t cry.” Chen Xun put his hand on Mo Qiao’s back and comforted her gently, “You can see me every day now~”

He relaxed his tone, deliberately adding a bit of sticky softness, “It’s the Madam who goes on business trips with the Master every day. I stay at the old house every day, but I don’t get to see you.”

Mo Qiao finally recovered, rubbing his red eyes, and repeatedly confirmed with Chen Xun, “You only know how to say nice things to coax me.”

“Xunxun from our family is still considerate.” Mo Qiao held Chen Xun’s hands in his palms, “Xufeng and Xuyu, these two kids, are not as good to me as you are to me.”

“I just came back and heard someone say bad things about me~”

A familiar female voice came from outside. Everyone turned their heads and saw Lian Xuyu walking in with her small bag. “Mom, you like Brother Xun so much. I’m jealous.”

Mo Qiao puffed up her cheeks and imitated Lian Xuyu’s expression and said, “Oh, you are jealous. Then go ahead and eat up your jealousy. Xunxun is mine anyway.”

“Hmph.” Lian Xuyu retreated back to her seat.

Unfortunately, as an Alpha, she was completely powerless against her mother’s coquettishness.

‘We have to wait for my brother to return.’ Lian Xuyu secretly thought that the straight man would definitely rescue Brother Xun from his mother’s arms.

Time passes by every second.

Under Mo Qiao’s “supervision”, Chen Xun ate a milk roll, a Basque, a yogurt fruit salad, and even three chocolate cookies.

“Ma’am, I really can’t eat anymore.”

Chen Xun frowned and waved his hand.

Because the child is constantly absorbing nutrition, he already eats much more than before.

But his stomach is only this big. If ate anything more, he was afraid he would vomit.

Mo Qiao suddenly realized that she had actually fed Chen Xun the same amount of food as she fed her three Alphas!

She nervously looked Chen Xun up and down, and only when she saw that Chen Xun looked calm and fine did she secretly breathe a sigh of relief and clapped her hands, “Okay, let’s take a break.”

“Madam, Master, you just arrived, please go upstairs and rest first.”

Chen Xun felt relieved. At Mo Qiao’s repeated request, he escorted Mo Qiao and Lian Yan into the room, chatted with them for a while, and then slowly walked towards the living room.

The living room was empty, and Lian Xuyu seemed to have gone back to her room. Only the light in the kitchen was on, probably because the cook was preparing dinner for tonight.

Chen Xun walked towards his room and bumped into his adoptive father, Zhong Bo, who was coming out of the kitchen.

“Dad.” Chen Xun called out obediently.

Zhong Bo’s gaze turned to Chen Xun. He did not respond to Chen Xun, but slowly narrowed his eyes.

“Madam said you’ve lost weight, but why do I feel like you’ve gained some weight?”

T/N :

We’re 20 chapters in already and the plotline is really developing well.

After a lot of deliberation, I’ve decided to add a paywall to the coming chapters. The rule is simple, FIVE ADVANCE CHAPTERS will be uploaded, priced FIVE COINS EACH. As usual, ONE CHAPTER will be made FREE WEEKLY.

As a reader myself, I know how irritating paywalls are but as an mtl translator, I know that this isn’t really a job as easy as it sounds. Every chapter is edited and proofread carefully before being uploaded. It’s not easy work. And, it’s only within expectations that we need something to motivate us. So, please do support us~

Also Remember, Regular Updates Will Follow
