His lips were stained with red wine and it curled into a mischievous yet alluring smile.
His slender fingers held the wineglass, and elegant light reflected off his nails.
He stretched out his other hand and adjusted the black-framed glasses on his nose. He stretched out the wineglass and said to her in a different voice, “Beautiful girl, why are you feeling down? Can I have a drink with you?”
Su Yue’s mouth widened in shock and her eyes were as large as saucers. But she wasn’t really shocked. She was just… pleasantly surprised.
Was she dreaming? Was she dreaming?
Immediately, tears welled up in her eyes. “Uncle… Uncle Ming…”
Was it really him?
Could the man standing before her really be Uncle Ming—the man she was missing just a second ago?
The man walked over and raised his eyebrow. “Is this a huge enough surprise for you?”
His gentle tone and smile were like a surge of warmth. She bit her lip and nodded in agreement.
She hugged him, her head against his chest. She clutched his clothes tightly. “Uncle Ming, I missed you to death.”
Ming Ansheng carried her like a child, holding her up with one arm and patting the back of her head tenderly. “Silly girl.”
His tone was full of love and affection.
Su Yue released her emotions and wiped away her tears. She looked at him in confusion. “Uncle Ming, why are you here?”
It was too sudden.
Ming Ansheng lowered his head and kissed her between her eyebrows. He then raised his eyebrow. “It’s Christmas Eve. And it’ll be New Year’s eve in a few days. How could I not spend it with you?”
They had a huge age gap. People claimed that older ones were more loving and attentive, so how could he not be by her side as she matured?
Su Yue asked in shock, “Then… you’re leaving after new year’s day?”
It was still six to seven days away. Was he going to stay here for the entire period?
Ming Ansheng smiled gently. “You have to hide me well for the next few days.”
Su Yue foolishly asked, “How do I hide you?”
Ming Ansheng smiled and put her down. “Silly girl, let’s eat first. Didn’t you say that you wanted to drink?”
He grabbed her hand and they sat down on the sofa.
They diverted the topic. When Su Yue saw the countless dishes of food and red wine, she asked, “Did you prepare all this especially for me?”
Ming Ansheng lifted an eyebrow. “If not?”
It touched Su Yue. She smiled foolishly and said, “You didn’t tell me that you were coming. I didn’t get you a gift.”
Ming Ansheng whispered, “You’re the best gift I could ever have.”
His voice was small when he said it.
Su Yue was still basking in happiness and she didn’t hear him. She looked at him in confusion. “What?”
“Nothing.” Ming Ansheng smiled and shook his head. He changed the topic again. “Try these chicken wings.”
Then he took a piece and fed it to her. She took a huge bite and nodded. “Mm, it’s good. It’s really delicious.”
It was way better than the ones she had eaten at Amorous restaurant earlier.
