His Rui

Chapter 679 The Angry Small Bun

　　Just when Xi Ling was trying to find out, if his mother was crying or not, Xi Ying stepped inside the room. He still had the cloth in his hands and his eyes were filled with worry and concern which increased when he saw that Li Rui was lying on the bed covering herself with a blanket. 

　　He spoke in regret as he walked towards the bed. 

　　While, Xi Ling who saw all this, looked at his father with narrowed eyes. 

　　When Xi Ying approached the bed, he sat down on the edge and tried to remove the blanket from Li Rui\'s face.

　　"Rui, I am sorry. Don\'t cover your face. You will suffocate yourself."

　　He spoke gently as if he was speaking to a child while trying to remove the blanket from her face. However, Li Rui clutched the blanket tightly with her hands and didn\'t let him remove it.

　　Xi Ying sighed in helplessness as he didn\'t want to apply much force. 

　　He again spoke gently but before he could finish his words, he heard his son\'s angry voice.

　　"What did you do, Father?"

　　Xi Ying turned his head to look at Xi Ling who was looking at him with narrowed eyes. He frowned and said without paying much attention to him.

　　"You leave for now."

　　However, Xi Ling felt angry at his father for speaking to him like this. He pushed away his father\'s hand from the blanket with his small hands and said very seriously.

　　"Father, Mother is angry at you. It is Father who should leave not Xi Ling."

　　Xi Ying\'s lips twitched as he looked at his son who seemed to be proud of such a reasonable reason. He was thinking of picking him from his collar and then throw out of the room when Li Rui suddenly uncovered her face and reprimanded her son.

　　"Xiao Ling, when did Mother teach you to speak like this to your Father?"

　　Xi Ying\'s heart softened on hearing her words while Xi Ling pouted realizing his mistake. He was about to apologize to his father when he noticed his mother\'s face. 

　　Li Rui\'s eyes were red and moisture could be seen in the corner of her eyes indicating that she had been crying. 

　　The small bun\'s eyes reddened unconsciously and he spoke in a trembling voice.

　　"Mother was crying…It is Father\'s fault. Mother…"

　　Xi Ling suddenly threw his arms around his mother\'s neck and started crying in a muffled voice.

　　"Mother, don\'t cry. Xi Ling and Mother will not talk to Father…wuwu…"

　　The small bun cries were very painful. Even Li Hua who had been in the living room now stood outside her mistress\' room wondering if she should go inside or not. 

　　Her heart clenched hearing Xi Ling\'s cries. 

　　It could be seen that Xi Ling didn\'t like to see his mother crying. Any child would not. 

　　Xi Ying who also noticed his wife\'s face felt very guilty.   

　　However, when he heard his son\'s words, his lips twitched in anger. 

　　In his eyes, this small thing was only filing his wife\'s ears against him. From where did this \'not talking to him\' came? 

　　Here, he was thinking of some way to cheer Li Rui up and this brat was teaching his wife to stop talking to him. 

　　He really needed to spank him. 

　　Li Rui realized her mistake immediately. 

　　She frowned wondering what did just happen to her as she held Xi Ling in her arms. 

　　With her other hand, she wiped her eyes and then tried to sit with Xi Ling in his arms. 

　　Xi Ying immediately helped her and she didn\'t refuse to know that she should not put much force. 

　　"Xiao Ling, Mother is not crying..sshhh…don\'t cry."

　　She patted her son\'s back gently while Xi Ling hid his face in his mother\'s neck. 

　　While Xi Ying leaned closer to his wife\'s face. 

　　Li Rui looked at him silently. Now she looked at him, she felt very embarrassed. Even she knew that her embroidery didn\'t look good. He was just trying to cheer her up. 

　　Her embarrassment only increased when Xi Ying caressed the corner of her red eyes and whispered 

　　"I am sorry, Rui. Don\'t cry, alright? I am stupid …that peacock was indeed very beautiful. It was me who couldn\'t see this."

　　Li Rui\'s cheeks were red as she patted Xi Ling\'s back and whispered 

　　"You don\'t need to lie, Ying."

　　On the other hand, Xi Ling who was hearing their whispers suddenly came out of his hiding place and looked between them. His face was red from crying but he had finally stopped crying.  But his voice was still nasal when he asked his mother

　　"Mother, what peacock are you talking about?"

　　Xi Ying didn\'t let Li Rui answer the question as he spoke to Xi Ling.

　　"Nothing, you continue crying."

　　Saying this, he was about to throw the cloth in his hands. It would be good if Rui would never see this. He didn\'t want to see her crying again. 

　　However, Xi Ling scowled at his father\'s words and when he saw his father trying to throw the cloth, he swiftly caught the corner of the cloth. 

　　Xi Ying scowled as he tried to pull the cloth back but Xi Ling didn\'t leave it.

　　"Father, give it to me. What are you going to do with this? Why are you throwing it away? Mother was sewing it for Xi Ling\'s sibling. Xi Ling knew that you didn\'t want Mother to sew."

　　Still holding the cloth, Xi Ling looked at his mother with his wide black eyes. 

　　"Mother, is that why you were crying?" 

　　Xi Ying\'s had a very tempting urge to lift Xi Ling from the bed and then spank his butt. What was the need to remind Li Rui again about this?

　　He suddenly couldn\'t resist the urge and left the cloth to life his son from the bed. 

　　However, when had he thought that his little son would take the advantage of this thing and suddenly run to another side of the bed with the cloth. 

　　"Mother, Xi Ling will protect it from Father."

　　Xi Ling said seriously while Xi Ying sighed.

　　"Xi Ling, come here."

　　He spoke calmly as he waited for Xi Ling to walk to his side. 

　　However, Xi Ling shook his head and said 

　　"No, Father. You should not make Mother cry."

　　Xi Ying sighed, He was afraid that his son would fall down from the bed so he didn\'t dare to catch him.

　　"That is not the matter."

　　He tried to explain as he walked to the other side but Xi Ling swiftly walked to his mother\'s side with his small legs and sat down on her lap. 

　　"Mother, here is the cloth."

　　Xi Ling said happily as if he had won something.

　　Li Rui smiled as she stroked his hair while Xi Ying who saw this was suddenly relieved. His anger toward his son also vanished. 

　　It was alright if could make Li Rui smile. 

　　He thought inside his heart as he walked to the other side and sat near his wife and son.

　　Xi Ling saw this his father didn\'t try to snatch the clothes so he also relaxed. He opened the cloth to see how much it was made when he suddenly found the embroidered spot and asked in confusion.

　　"What is this? It looks so ugly."

　　He asked with a deep scowl. 

　　And the room went silent.

　　Xi Ying saw how still Li Rui looked and his urge to spank his son came again and this time with a greater force.
