Chapter 36: The First Slap (I)

"I'm not." Yan Xiaoran sighed and sat on the couch across where the twin was seated.

She looked at them blankly to which the twins beamed and smiled back at her.

Kenzo, the bubbly and mischievous of the two suddenly stood up and went to her couch to sit.

"Sis, are you going to live with us from now on?" Kenzo said as he looked at her with the eyes of an innocent child.

Yan Xiaoran took a glance at him and answered softly, "I'm not sure."

Thinking about it again, now that she was reunited with her father, living with him again would be the next thing she would do since there wasn't any place for her stay.

And if it was true that Ken and Kenzo really ended up her brothers as they claimed them to be since they said they were adopted by her father, Yan Xiaoran didn't know what to do.

It was nice to live with her father again but was she ready to be around these two?

Staring at how the two bickers and smiled at her, Yan Xiaoran didn't notice the pleasant feeling inside her heart.

Maybe because she was the only child and never felt the love between siblings, she found the twin's company refreshing after all the gloomy days she experienced.

Ken and Kenzo were also not bothered that there was a new stranger suddenly appearing in their lives.

Although there's a slight feeling of awkwardness since this was the first time they met, Kenzo and Ken were glad to have her since they both loved the fact that their father will finally able to truly smile and have his daughter back, and they would also have an elder sister.

Ever since they were little, Ken and Kenzo never got a chance to have a parent and amongst the orphans in the orphanage they lived in, they were the oldest and most hated by the staff and children in the orphanage.

They could still remember when the staff in the orphanage would always force them to clean the whole orphanage and stay outside in the evening to keep cleaning even during winter when their tiny bodies were most vulnerable against the weather and diseases.

They were also forced to Attend to the parents who wanted to adopt a child, however, because they refused to leave and get separated, Ken and Kenzo would always pull a prank to dissuade the parents from adopting them.

But Yan Wu Jing was the only one who wanted the twins and eventually adopting them.

Looking at each other's eyes, Ken and Kenzo understood each other's feelings since they were siblings and twins, the two of them have a strong connection with each other and knew what the other was thinking.

However, they didn't know what Yan Xiaoran was thinking inside her mind thus, they hesitated and looked at her with hopeful eyes.

Even Ken, who was the cool-headed and calm one among the two, was now looking at Yan Xiaoran with eagerness.

With these two pairs of eyes looking at her with an expectant look in their eyes, Yan Xiaoran didn't know what to do.

"Do you not like us?" Kenzo said as his face was crestfallen.

"No, I do like you." Yan Xiaoran said loudly and surprisingly. She didn't know why but with the influence of their puppy-eye look, she couldn't stay indifferently in front of them.

Even she denies it and refuses to acknowledge it, Yan Xiaoran knew in her heart that she was still the same child that wanted to have a sibling around her.

"Then… Why won't you live with us?" Ken asked in turn.

Yan Xiaoran slowly shook her and smiled at them, "I didn't say I won't. It's just that… Everything was just so sudden and got me off guard. By the way, do you two know where dad is?"

Yan Xiaoran wanted to meet her father as soon as possible and ask him to explain everything to her, and if ever he has another surprise, he should tell her beforehand so the next time, she wouldn't be too shocked.

Kenzo and Ken looked at each other and nodded their heads before Kenzo said, "Yup! He's currently talking with uncle Mo and Secretary Gao in the conference room downstairs."

Kenzo suddenly pulled her arm as he said, "Let's go and see father!"

Being pulled by the arm, Yan Xiaoran wanted to get her arm back stealthily but Ken suddenly took a hold of her other arm.

In the end, the twins put their hand around her forearms as they got out of the office and Yan Xiaoran didn't have any room to refuse their enthusiasm and physical contact.

As they walk down the corridor, Kenzo loudly and proudly said the achievements of their father to their new elder sister. He kept on saying that Yan Wu Jing was a wealthy and humble man and the best dad in the world.

And as for Ken, he kept his cool and walked with them silently whilst still holding Yan Xiaoran. He observed every reaction that Yan Xiaoran showed on her face.

He noticed that the moment that Kenzo held her forearm, she was startled and was awkward thus, he decides to hold her too so she will get close to them as early as possible.

When they got inside the elevator, Kenzo didn't stop talking and continued to praise their father. Yan Xiaoran looked at him with a faint smile.

There was no doubt that the twins were so close to her father and loved him so much that they would even try so hard to make her feel comfortable with them around.

'Ding!'

The elevator door opened and they saw a beautiful woman in an extremely tight dress and thick make-up standing before them.

At first, Yan Xiaoran didn't think it was strange since she thought that the woman was only waiting for the elevator.

However, as she stepped out of the elevator with the twins, Yan Xiaoran found that the behaviors of the boys suddenly changed.

Then, she heard the woman say: "And what are you two doing here?"
