“Hold up now. He’s notsnipingany of my ladies, but he can have a romantic, passionate night with one of them if she chooses, but no sniping.”

Lei chuckled.

I looked at Hu with a new perspective, his stoic face not betraying any of the playful pimp menace that Lei attributed to him. “But, what an interesting nickname.”

Alright, Vagina Sniper. Don’t you play with their hearts.

On the couch, Hu leaned in slightly towards Fen, whispering something in her ear that made her laugh. It was strange to hear, being that Fen tended to be super shy and almost always quiet.

Lei followed my gaze. “See what I mean?”

“Hmmm.”

Lan spotted us, stopped her conversation with Chen, rose, and hurried over.

Lei waved his hand. “Enjoy yourselves. We’re just being nosy.”

She stopped and looked at me.

I nodded. “Yeah. We’re fine.”

Chen stood and headed over.

“No.” Lei shook his head. “I’m taking Moni upstairs and we’re going to be alone until it is time for the cookout, so go back over there.”

“I understand, but I must tell you something.” Chen rushed up to us with his phone clutched tightly in his hand. “Lei, Monique, you need to see this.”

Lei scowled. “See what?”

Chen got to us and handed his phone to Lei. “Uncle Leo made a big speech before ending the tea ceremony himself.”

What?

Chapter thirteen

Cockology

Moni

Lei stared at the phone like it was burning hot and covered in poison.

On the screen, Leo was frozen mid-speech, his expression serious and commanding. The background showed the huge image of my mother and Lei’s as they sat in the garden. His seat hadn’t been over there, so Leo must have walked to that image to speak.

Lei's jaw tightened and I could feel the tension radiating from him. “I don’t even want to see my father right now or hear his voice.”

I stiffened.

Lei looked up at Chen. “What did he say?”

Chen took a deep breath, glancing at both of us before speaking. “Uncle Leo explained the delay in the ceremony bysaying that when Monique saw the picture of her mother next to the Grand Mountain Mistress, so much emotion hit Monique’s eyes, and he actually saw tears form.”

Wow. Leo can lie his ass off and without any need for notice.

I shook my head.

“He went on to say that his heart warmed in that moment and he knew God had blessed him with histruedaughter.”

Lei’s frown deepened, but he remained silent.
