Chapter 55
Mu Yiling was afraid that his older brother would disown his sister, so he chimed in hastily in an attempt to appeal for mercy, “Elder Brother, Weiwei is still young…”
None of them would have thought that Mu Yichen did not even take a glance at them before he announced coldly, “I’m done with breakfast.” Then, he turned around and went upstairs into the study.
Done…done with breakfast?
Mu Yiling looked at the plate he left behind and saw that there was still quite a lot of food on it. He did not even manage to finish his coffee. He had not slept well yesterday and only took a few bites for breakfast today. Would his older brother faint at work later?
Upon seeing her older brother leave, Mu Weiwei was even smugger. She glared at Mu Yiling. “Look, Bro. Even the Elder Brother is too lazy to pay attention to that woman, but you’re still nagging me all the time! I’m doing this for the Mu family. It’s just better for me to drive this woman away with my scolding so that it saves Elder Brother the trouble of divorcing her!”
Mu Yiling shook his head helplessly as he looked at her.
They were obviously from by the same mother, yet he was the only sibling with adequate intelligence and emotional quotient in the family. His older brother lacked emotional quotient while his sister lacked intelligent quotient.

Sigh, the family can never survive without me!
Since Luo Chenxi was sitting there at the table, she could naturally hear Mu Weiwei’s insult at her.
However, she was constantly chanting ‘I’m not listening to the b*tch’s patter, I’m not listening to the b*tch’s patter’ in her heart as she completely disregarded Mu Weiwei. She minded her own business and had her breakfast while occasionally feeding the little dumpling a few mouthfuls.
It felt as if Mu Weiwei’s verbal attack was shot into a pile of cotton. Since the other person refused to join the quarrel, she lost interest after continuing the ambiguous insult for a while.
Tang Tang held a rabbit ear-shaped spoon and carved out the strawberry cake on her plate scoop by scoop.
Luo Chenxi learned that a majority of young children would still need to be fed by parents at three years old, yet the little dumpling was already very good at feeding herself. She had done very well feeding herself strawberry pudding at Grandmother Mu’s house yesterday too. She certainly lived up to the reputation of being a little foodie.
Tang Tang polished off a large piece of cake in a few minutes. She let out a soft burp, then she got down from the high chair by herself.
Luo Chenxi stretched out her hands to help her in fear that she might fall. “Tang Tang, be careful.”
Tang Tang seized the opportunity to wrap her arms around Luo Chenxi’s thigh. “Miss, I’m going to be late for kindergarten!”
“Are you already attending kindergarten, Tang Tang?” Luo Chenxi was rather surprised.
Tang Tang was three and a half years old now. It was already time for her to attend kindergarten, but Luo Chenxi was under the assumption that Mu Yichen would probably not allow his little princess to go to kindergarten due to the level of his overwhelming love for her.
Mu Yiling chimed in with a smile upon hearing their conversation, “Sister-in-law, Elder Brother doesn’t want Tang Tang to attend kindergarten at all, but Tang Tang insists on going.”
“Huh? Why’s that so?”
“About this…” Mu Yiling smiled sinisterly and was about to speak when Tang Tang suddenly let go of Luo Chenxi’s thigh and ran to him. She stomped on his foot strenuously.
“Ouch! Tang Tang, how could you stomp on me!? I’m your favorite second uncle!” Mu Yiling screamed in agony.
Tang Tang did not even bother to take a glance at him. She trotted back to Luo Chenxi’s side after she was done with her punishment. She hugged Luo Chenxi’s thigh and peered up. “Miss, send me to the kindergarten, please!”
Luo Chenxi was all confused. However, she forgot about everything else as soon as she saw the little dumpling’s huge, googly eyes. She bent over and picked her up.
“Alright, I’ll send you…”
“No!” Mu Weiwei suddenly vocalized and interrupted her. She stood up and walked to Luo Chenxi’s side quickly before stretching her arms out to Tang Tang. “Tang Tang, don’t go out with the evil woman. She’s going to bully you! Come over here. Let Aunt take you to kindergarten!”
However, her hands had barely grazed Tang Tang’s clothes when the little dumpling moved away. “No! You were scolding Miss earlier. I hate you! I want Miss to send me to school!”
