Chapter 463 Unbelievable
"Little Shin, come over." Zaki immediately called the little boy standing at the doorway. He was running out of time so he thought using little Shin was his only choice left.
The boy looked at the sleeping Hinari as he walked closer to Zaki.
"Uncle, is auntie still unwell?" he asked with a worried look and Zaki reached out his hand. He gently ruffled Little Shin’s head as the boy bent down and Zaki whispered to him quietly.
"Yes, she’s unwell. But you don’t have to worry, she just needs to rest." Zaki explained and little Shin looked at her again.
His brows creased a little before he looked at Zaki. "I’ll leave then, uncle. I don’t want to disturb her."
Little Shin was about step back when Zaki held his hand to stop him. He made him look at his face as he began to speak.
"Little Shin, you want your auntie to be happy, right?"
"Mm. Of course."
"I am planning to go out so I can go and prepare that thing that would make her happy. So I will need your help."
"Help? Is uncle in trouble?"
"Yeah, I’m in trouble so will you help me?"
Little Shin blinked at Zaki for a while. Lately, this supposedly heroic great uncle of his wasn’t that great anymore since he’s now asking help from a child. But somehow, little Shin thought that it might have something to do with his uncle’s broken heart disease so he could only shrugged.
He then looked at Hinari again before he finally nodded his answer. "If you are going to make auntie happy, I will help you."
Zaki smiled at little Shin’s answer and he ruffled his hair again. He knew that this little Sei will never disappoint him. "Yes, I promise. I will make her happy," he replied and the boy seemed to be pleased.
"Now let’s start. Give me your hand," Zaki then continued and Little Shin immediately raised his hand.
"What can I do to help you?" the curious little Shin asked when Kaide knelt behind him on the floor and he whispered to him.
"You have to act as your uncle’s substitute. Your uncle will use you as his dummy."
Hearing what Kaide said, little Shin’s brows knotted and he looked at Zaki with a displeased gaze.
"You’re going to use me as your replacement because auntie won’t let go of you?"
Zaki, who was busy peeling Hinari’s fingers from his hand, halted. He turned to Little Shin and when he saw Kaide kneeling beside him, Zaki’s piercing glare made the gossip flee back off.
"Why? You don’t want to help uncle anymore?" Zaki asked the boy as his expression turned soft.
"It’s not like that. It’s just that auntie might hate it if you leave without telling her. She will be very sad." Little Shin looked like he was now firmly against Zaki’s plan. But Zaki knew that this little boy just cared about Hinari and was only being protective of her feelings.
"Little Shin, you said I am your third most favorite person but you don’t trust me enough?" As those words left Zaki’s mouth, little Shin was silenced for a moment. And in the end, the little guy pursed his lips and he gave in.
"Okay, I trust uncle so I will listen to you."
"That’s my boy."
Thus, the next attempt of the mission began. Kaide’s arms were crossed as he watched the uncle and nephew performing their mission so carefully and seriously. They looked like some quiet and cute little forest beasts. Their expressions were almost the same and it was making Kaide feel amazed by their exceptional teamwork. They were moving so graciously and so in sync with each other that Kaide couldn’t stop himself from secretly filming them.
By the time Zaki managed to unclasp Hinari’s fingers, little Shin immediately put his hand on her palm and gladly, the mission was a success. Hinari clasped Little Shin’s hands and she even pulled him closer to her.
This of course made Zaki heave a long sigh of relief. Little Shin was indeed his little savior today.
Zaki didn’t waste any more time and he positioned little Shin so that he would be comfortable. Afterwards, he bent towards him and whispered in his ears.
"I will leave her to you for now, okay? I’ll be back as soon as possible," he said and little Shin nodded.
"Mm. Leave her to me, uncle. I’ll take good care of my favorite auntie."
When Little Shin said those words, Zaki smiled again that he couldn’t stop himself from kissing the little guy’s forehead as his way of saying thanks.
Zaki then turned but before he could step away, little tugged his shirt, causing Zaki to bent at him again.
"Uncle, no kiss for auntie? Daddy always kiss mommy and me before he leaves you know?"
As those words reached his ears, Zaki couldn’t help but blush. He wanted to tell this little innocent thing that Hinari was not his wife and he even broke up with her last night. He wanted to say that he still don’t have the right to kiss her whenever he wanted. But when Zaki’s gaze fell at the sleeping Hinari, he felt like there’s no way he could just leave like this.
"Kaide, wait for me outside," Zaki then ordered the pretty man and gladly, he lazily left.
Zaki then looked at little Shin and he whispered. "Keep this a secret, okay?"
"Why?"
"I will explain to you when i come back."
"Okay."
Zaki then bent and a soft kiss landed on Hinari’s forehead.
When Zaki left the room, Kaide who was waiting outside murmured.
"I can’t believe you just used the young boss like that."
"Shut up. Little Shin is not an ordinary child and I gave him books to read. He’ll be fine."
"Bohoo... no matter what, you still used a child. Poor little Shin, being used as a substitute. It’d be better if you used me instead- Ouch!"
Once again, Kaide was hit.
"Ugh! What did i do again?! Wait... so you are also like the big jelly boss huh." Kaide started grinning as he circled Zaki like an annoying fox.
"You’re a jealous type as well, huh? Damn unbelievable! I didnt know know Zaki the great could also feel this little thing called jealousy! This is such a big news!"
"Kaide, say one more word and i’ll throw you out the window."
