Rebirth from the Ashes

Chapter 750 Call Me Uncle

The congested crowd only resulted in a chaotic scene.

With his pupils dilating, Li Yuan sensed the impending danger looming on Shen Xi. Despite his intent to get right in there, he knew he could not make it on time. The girl who had her hands full stumbled her feet after being knocked over and was falling back onto a pot of boiling oil.

In the next second, a towering figure suddenly emerged beside her and grabbed her by the arm to hold her steady. It happened so fast that Shen Xi did not realize what was going on. While she was held, the first whiff to hit her in the face was a cold scent. She looked over at Fu Qingli’s worried and frowning face. She was dumbstruck for a while before uttering, “Big Brother, why are you here?”

“Miss.” Lu Guoguo happily waved her little hand in greeting.

Shen Xi then took notice of an adorable little girl riding on Fu Qingli’s shoulders. The little girl had two ponytails sealed with red ribbons today. Her rosy face bore a sparkling grin. She was just the cutest little thing. Shen Xi earnestly corrected her. “That’s Aunty to you.”

Holding onto Fu Qingli’s head, Lu Guoguo blinked her eyes, pursed her lips, and tilted her head. “But Mummy told me to call the pretty ones ‘Miss’.”

Shen Xi was amused by the child. “I’m your father’s sister. You should call me Aunty.”

Lu Guoguo gave it a thought before shyly muttering, “Aunty.” Shen Xi happily nodded. “What do you want to eat? I’ll get it for you.”

Li Yuan drew close to check on his fair lady. Hiding the murderous intent in his eyes, he turned to Lu Guoguo. “Call me Uncle.”

Fu Qingli shot him the deadliest look.

Lu Guoguo was a well-behaved little girl. She heeded the call and sweetly said, “Uncle.”

Li Yuan grinned. “What a good girl.”

In the back, Yu Yuanxi pulled Song Wenye away from the circling sharks of fans and ran off.

Perhaps because Song Wenye was edged away by the crowd or because Fu Qingli’s cold demeanor scared everyone away, no one dared come close to the group within half a meter radius even though the surrounding was jam-packed.

Shen Xi took a glance and saw Lu Li heading this way with Lu Zhen in her arms. She smiled at Fu Qingli. So they took the children to have fun at the amusement park. It seemed everyone had the same idea.

Lu Li quickly approached and politely greeted Shen Xi and Li Yuan.

She had promised to take her kids out to the amusement park today, but Fu Qingli insisted on tagging along. It never occurred to her that she would bump into Shen Xi and her husband here.

Putting on a straight face like an adult, Lu Zhen nodded at the couple without a word, albeit his eyes softened and turned vivid at the sight of Shen Xi.

Shen Xi looked at the mini version of Fu Qingli and delivered a skittle to his mouth. “Lu Zhen, do you want to ride the horsey like your sister?”

Accepting the candy, Lu Zhen opened his mouth and ate the skittle. He then instinctively glanced at Fu Qingli and shook his head.

Shen Xi pinched the little guy’s supple face and said with a smile, “Your uncle will give you a ride.”

Lu Li could not bring herself to accept the offer. “It’s okay. Lil’ Zhen is fine.”

That man was Li Yuan, the head of the Li household, who was rumored to be a heartless and callous demon. Lu Li had heard of his name in the past, but he did not seem as terrifying in person.

“No problem. Leave it to me.” Li Yuan reached out and smiled at Lu Zhen. “Come with your uncle, alright? You can see further ahead on my shoulders.” Lu Zhen turned his head away to hide his blushing cheeks. Pursing his lips, he remained silent, but his eyes sparked curiosity and a glow.

“Big Brother, you can really see very far. It’s fun.” Lu Guoguo looked at Lu Zhen with sparkling eyes. “Or do you want to ride on Daddy?”

Fu Qingli stared at Lu Zhen with helplessness. He had no idea what was going on with the boy as the latter seemed to have a problem with him. Lu Zhen had never really said a word to him.

Lu Zhen did not refuse when Li Yuan happily went to carry him.

Lu Li knew her son was giving the green light since he did not turn down the offer. Although the boy never mentioned it, he longed for the love of a father.

Despite her best efforts, Lu Li could never replace the existence of a father. She could not make up for the lost fatherly love.

Li Yuan raised the boy high and put him on his shoulders.

Although Lu Zhen kept a straight face, his eyes shimmered brighter.

With kids riding on their shoulders, Li Yuan and Fu Qingli carried on with their trip.

Lu Guoguo was chatting with Lu Zhen non-stop. Her smiley eyes were adorable.

The tourists around could not help but look. The two men were the finest of the fine and together with the two cutest little things, they drew quite a breathtaking and envious picture.

Being friendly, Shen Xi approached Lu Li and asked, “What’s your next stop? Let’s go together.”

Lu Li replied, “Guoguo wants something to eat. We’re going there to take a look around. What happened to you guys?”

“Song Wenye was recognized by her fans.” Shen Xi explained with a smile. “She and my brother are an item. The two came for a date at the amusement park.”

Lu Li immediately gazed toward Fu Qingli and said, “I know Song Wenye.”

She thought Fu Qingli came to the amusement park to spend time with the kids. Lu Li was surprised that he was actually here on a date. Were she and the kids keeping Fu Qingli from his date? Well, that was not good at all.

“Not my big brother.” Clearing her throat, Shen Xi immediately explained the situation revolving around her family. It was indeed complicated and hard to cut the long story short. “Her boyfriend is the son of my adoptive parents. His name is Yu Yuanxi.”

Lu Li was not any clearer following the explanation, but she did not show it on her face. She nodded. “Oh.”

She did a bit of homework on Fu Qingli’s family background after her visit to the Shen family’s home. Lu Li was aware that Shen Xi was Fu Qingli’s long-lost sister, but she had no clue about the situation with the Shen family.

Should the son of the Shen family not have the surname Shen? Why was he called Yu Yuanxi? Shen Xi and Lu Li were talking in the back.

In front, the two men sauntered to the cotton candy stall and made a brief stop there.

Soon, they returned with four cotton candies. The young ones held one each.

Holding a pink cat head in his hand, Li Yuan dotingly smiled at Shen Xi and handed the cotton candy to her.

Fu Qingli was holding one too. He looked at Lu Li and gave it to her.
