Venerable Demon King & The Doting Immortal (QT) novel Chapter 218

Chapter 218: Looking for a Mummy

AN: Hello lovely. I am taking a leave day tomorrow. Happy reading.

Xiang Yu stood by the car, his eyes scanning the bustling street as Lian and Mei struggled with their suitcases. The twins, identical in their determination, were trying to lift the heavy bags into the trunk. Just as they were about to give up, Han Zhan rushed over, his face a mix of annoyance and concern.

"Here, let me help you," Han Zhan said, his voice gruff but kind.

Lian smiled gratefully. "Thank you."

Mei echoed her sister, "Thank you, Uncle."

Han Zhan’s jaw tightened. "You should at least call me brother. You call Little Bai brother, so why not call me brother too?"

Lian shook her head firmly. "No."

Han Zhan sighed, lifting the suitcases with ease and placing them in the car. "Why not?"

Mei didnt golf back. He replied, "You are older than our master, so you are our uncle."

Han Zhan’s face fell into a resigned expression. "..." It was going to be a long stay. These two were most definitely going to make him miserable at every chance they could get.

Xiang Yu approached, carrying his own bag. "Did you pack your uniforms?" he asked, his tone serious.

Lian and Mei exchanged a quick glance before nodding. "Um, yes."

Xiang Yu’s eyes narrowed. He could always tell when they were lying. "Seriously?"

The twins’ guilty expressions were all the confirmation he needed. "You two are in big trouble," he said, turning on his heel and heading back into the apartment.

As Xiang Yu walked past Han Xin, who was leaning against the car, Han Xin straightened up and got into the driver’s seat. Han Zhan, still fuming, muttered, "Xiang Yu would make a really good mom, wouldn’t he?"

Little Bai, sitting in the back seat, widened his eyes in surprise. "Excuse me, Master is not a mommy," Lian protested.

Mei nodded vigorously. "Yeah, he is looking for a mommy for us."

Han Xin, who was clipping his seatbelt, paused for a fleeting moment. He wasn’t going to ask, but Han Zhan wasn’t so modest. Leaning in from the back seat, he asked, "What sort of mommy is he looking for?"

Han Zhan was already starting to think that Xiang Yu was not looking for a mommy but a daddy. Lian pursed her lips, while Mei glanced at Han Xin, quickly looking away when she saw him watching her.
