Revenge Sevenfold

"What do you want to watch? Boonie Bears? Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf? Or Moana?" Hui Yin asked the two little buns.

The twins had just finished bathing, and she was drying Baby Shang's hair with a towel. Hui Yin sniffed his head, and felt her heart melt at the mixed fragrance of baby shampoo and milk scent that all little kids seem to carry.

She hugged his small and soft body.

"How I wish I could kidnap the two of you!" she exclaimed.

Little Wuji, who was surveying the room in his pajamas, looked at her solemnly.

"Good idea."

He gave her a thumbs up.

Hui Yin laughed.

"Boonie Bears," Baby Shang declared, after pondering his choices.

He trotted towards the sofa, and Hui Yin walked inside the kitchen to get the treats she had baked especially for them. She wanted to have Jiang Xu take back some treats for the Jiang family too, but he left before she could say anything.

"Yummy," Little Wuji praised as he bit on some Osmanthus flower jelly.

He sat next to Baby Shang on the sofa, and contrary to his twin brother, he looked like a mini-adult as he spread out a blanket on his lap with a serious look.

Hui Yin shook her head. The two little buns both had the same identical face, but it was easy to pinpoint who was who between the two of them.

"Little Wuji, do you want to watch Boonie Bears too?"

Just in case they didn't agree, Hui Yin asked him for his opinion.

"Don't want," Little Wuji said decisively. "Childish."

Baby Shang froze as he dealt with this huge blow. Childish? How could Wuji say that?

Right in front of Wifey!

"Then what do you want to watch?"

Sneaking a glance at Baby Shang who looked like he was about to cry, Hui Yin decided to solve the matter by giving him a plate of mooncakes.

"Harold and Maude," Little Wuji replied.

Hui Yin almost puked blood.

Harold and Maude?

Isn't that the controversial American film about a young man who fell in love with a 79-year old woman?!

Little Wuji, aren't your tastes a bit too un-childish? Why couldn't you just watch something like Boonie Bears too?

Noticing Hui Yin's discomfort, Little Wuji felt that maybe he was demanding too much from his Wifey.

Changing his mind, he said, "Or Three...Extremes?"

Little Wuji added the question mark at the end because he didn't know if he managed to pick something that was normal enough.

Three...Extremes?

Hui Yin and Baby Shang visibly shuddered. That was the title of the horror movie directed by three of Asia's top directors that contained scary stories from China, Japan, and Korea!

Watching a scary movie from any Asian country was terrifying enough, but to actually mix it all together in one horror film...

Hui Yin felt like sobbing. Little Wuji, aren't your tastes a bit hard-core?

Please spare this little Auntie, ah!

"Let's just watch Boonie Bears."

Hui Yin, with a flash of wisdom, decided not to ask Little Wuji's opinion again.
