"Did yingying miss daddy and mommy?!?"
"Yes!! Wevy much!!" She agreed.

Night Zan villa.
The family was eating dinner. Zan Guiying was on her high chair. She was eating her dinner and swinging her legs.
"Son!!"
"Yes father."
"Mr. De called me. His son and daughter in law arrived yesterday. They wanted to meet you two."
Zan Tengfei looked at his wife. "Yes father we would be there."
"Go with yingying. They will be expecting you three together tomorrow."
"Okay father." Bo Ehuang said.

Next morning De mansion.
De Longjun was looking outside. He had gone for his morning excercise, came back, took a bath and standing infront of his window. Waiting for her.
He thought.
From the day he met her she had took a place in his heart. It was not a romantic interest, he knew. But her eyes.... Somehow he was attracted towards it. Maybe it's because he didn't see any green eyes prior before. But he don't know the real reason. Looking at her face he felt a strong urge to protect her.... To keep that smile... Always in there....
He sighed.
He looked at his watch. It's time for breakfast. He waited.
As always butler Huo knocked his door.
When he reached downstairs, he saw everybody except twins.
He greeted them all and they greeted him back.
"Where are the twins?" He asked.
"We are here!!" De Genji and De Haoyu came down the stairs.
They had only brushed their teeth.
"Good morning grandpa; mom; dad; brother; sister!! They both greeted everyone in one breath.
"Okay!! Come and sit here." Grandpa De called them to sit.
Dishes like Pancakes with Eggs, soybean milk, wheat noodles, dumplings, rice congee etcetera were laid on the table and the children began to eat it.
"Son!" Grandpa De called his son.
De Yating looked at his father and asked. "What is it father?"
"I have invited the newlyweds Mr and Mrs Zan to our home."
"When will they arrive, father?" Xi Fang asked.
"They will arrive after sometime."
"Father.... We hadn't prepared for anything!!!" Xi Fang alarmed.
"It's not a problem. They are just coming here with their daughter. We can arrange a bashful lunch for them."
De Yating and Xi Fang nodded.
"Also... She would be coming here more often. Our kids can be friends with her."
"But grandpa!!!" Suddenly De Genji intervened.
They looked at her.
"I already have a friend... Gang Lihua!! And she is so smaller than me. She is only two. How could we....."
"De Genji!!" De Hua suddenly called her. "You shouldn't act like that. She is a kid that's why she need a friend."
"Exactly." Grandpa De supported her.
"What she is saying is true. Zan Guiying's mother died during chilbirth. And she was a very sheltered child. Now it's time for her to grow. And you know her grandfather and I are friends. So try to get along with her."
"Okay grandpa." She she looked down in her plate and whispered.
Then De Genji looked at her elder brother who was eating his breakfast silently. Is he happy?? I am so jealous, brother.
They ate their breakfast and retreated to their rooms.
Arriving in her room, De Genji called Gang Lihua and informed that the three of the Zan family are coming.
"Is it second young miss?! I will be arriving there in no time." Gang Lihua disconnected her phone and smirked. Today I will make you cry more and more... Zan Guiying...
***
From his window, De Longjun saw Zan Guiying's car. He saw his grandfather, father and mother greeting Mr and Mrs Zan.
Zan Guiying was in mothers arm and was laughing at grandpa De.
She looks happy in Mrs Zan's arm. Mrs Zan definitely loves Zan Guiying I can see it. But then also I should look after yingying. Nobody knows when Mrs Zan will change her mind. He thought.
He also came downstairs and greeted Mr and Mrs Zan.
"Big bwothew Jun!!! Zan Guiying patted her mother's shoulder excitedly.
Bo Ehuang understood what she was implying and put her in the floor.
The twins also came and greeted the guests.
"Please come inside Mr and Mrs Zan." Xi Fang welcomed both of them.
They all reached inside and sat in the sofa.
The servants bought tea and refreshments.
"Its from us." Zan Tengfei gave some gifts.
"Why did you bring it?" Grandpa De was happy.
"It's first time we are in your house. So we should bring you something as a gift." Bo Ehuang answered.
"Butler Huo!!!" Grandpa De called butler Huo and whispered somthing in his ear.
"Yes! Mr. De!!"
Butler Huo go to grandpa De's room and bought two gift boxes.
Grandpa De gifted one of them each.
"Thank you Mr De." They both thanked him.
Zan who was drinking milk, smiled. Bo Ehuang wiped her milk mostache.
"Kids!! You should go and play!!" Suddenly grandpa De said to them.
"We elders would have a small chit chat."
Hearing this, within a slip of second De Longjun stood up.
"We should go to my room." De Longjun volunteered.
WHAT!! Everyone except the guests, gaped.
What happened to De Longjun?
De Longjun ignored their wide mouths. But he took Zan Guiying's hand climbed stairs. The remaining kids followed them.

They reached in his room.
"What we awe gwoin to pway? Bwig bwothew Jun?" Zan Guiying asked excitedly.
"Yesterday we talked about playing a game. But we couldn't."
"Oh!!! The pictuwe game!!!"
"Picture game!?!" The remaining kids looked at their brother.
"Let me expwain it!!" Zan Guiying volunteered and taught the rools of this game.
For that they turned into two groups.
"But we are not equal in numbers." De Hua pointed.
Suddenly someone knocked the door.
De Genji understood who was that and opened the door.
It was Gang Lihua. " Am I too late?" She smiled at all of them and asked.
Nobody understood meaning of her smile but De Longjun.
Why is she here? What she is gonna do?
He thought.
Gang Lihua smiled meaningfully and looked at all of them. Especially at Zan Guiying. Again.....
