âYouâre forgiven!â Ye Yao waved her hand and did not argue with Gao Qiao.
Gao Qiao quickly stood up and bowed once to Ye Yao. âYe Yao, I wish to ask you for a favor.â
Gao Qiao looked very solemn, and Huo Buyu was silent. Ye Yao blinked and asked Huo Buyu, âWhat about you? Do you agree?â
Huo Buyu thought that it was rare for Ye Yao to ask him for an opinion, and felt rather satisfied that she did it. He nodded slightly. âYes, itâs a good thing if you are able to help Gao Qiao.â
âYouâve agreed?â Ye Yao stood up from the sofa in surprise and looked at Huo Buyu with sparkling eyes.
Huo Buyu nodded seriously.
Ye Yao immediately laughed out loud. Then, she made a performance out of telling Gao Qiao, âSince Huo Buyu has agreed, Iâll help you for sure. However, I canât help you for nothing. You have to give me some benefits, understand?â
Gao Qiao immediately raised his hand. âNo problem. Let me know what you want, and Iâll satisfy you!â
Huo Buyuâs expression darkened. He knew it. Ye Yao wouldnât have agreed so happily for nothing. She even wanted benefits? He shouted with exasperation,
âYeYao!â
Ye Yao looked at Huo Buyu with dissatisfaction. âAlthough Gao Qiao and I are friends, I canât help him for free. Besides, I want to expand my horizons and earn money. Otherwise, how will I survive if you keep deducting my pocket money for no reason?
Gao Qiao nodded. âYes, yes, yes. Itâs only right to accept benefits!â
Huo Buyu stood up immediately and looked down at Ye Yao. âYe Yao, I think youâve grown bold. You want me to lock you up and seal your mouth, right?â She was going around asking for benefits. How had he mistreated her? Was she short of food or clothes? He said, âIâll give you another 30 yuan! No more!â
Ye Yao was very angry. âIf you wonât allow me to say bad things, then you should reward me appropriately when I say good things. A red packet of 30 yuan is too miserable. You ought to be giving a bigger one, at least 200 yuan!â
Huo Buyuâs expression remained stoic. â30 yuan and thatâs all. You already have 60 yuan. A cup of milk tea in the morning, a cup of milk tea at noon, and a cup in the evening. Youâll be stuffed!â
Ye Yao went crazy. â150 then! No less!â
Huo Buyu frowned. â40 yuan, no more.â
Ye Yao screamed crazily, â100 yuan! If you dare to bargain again, Iâll quit! It canât be less than 100 yuan!â
A smile appeared on Huo Buyuâs face. âAlright, deal.â Then, he quickly took out his phone and sent Ye Yao a red packet of 100 yuan, not a single cent more.
Ye Yao looked at the red packet she received and heaved a sigh of relief. She turned to Huo Buyu resentfully. âAre you really a domineering CEO? Such a petty manâ¦â
Gao Qiaoâs jaw dropped. Huo Buyu and Ye Yao were actually bargaining over dozens of yuan?! Moreover, the highest price was only 200 yuan. 200 yuan was an insult to Huo Buyuâs status!
Ye Yao, on the other hand, was as happy as if she had stumbled upon a fortune after receiving Huo Buyuâs 100-yuan red packet. She looked at Gao Qiao happily. âWhat was it you needed my help with?â
Gao Qiao immediately became serious. âMy parents have been in conflict for many years. Now, neither of them would compromise. I hope you can help them reconcile.â
âSimple.â Ye Yao immediately put his palms together and said sincerely, âMay the heavens and earth bless Gao Qiaoâs parents to reconcile and live the rest of their lives happily!â
Huo Buyu was speechless again.
As was Gao Qiao.
After Ye Yao had happily uttered those words, she opened the 100 yuan red packet that she had received and took another look at it. Having seen the money, she kissed her phone. âLetâs go. I have to go to school for class!â Huo Buyu and Gao Qiao were both speechless again. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Ye Yao ran out of the house happily. By the time Gao Qiao could react, he felt that there was nothing seriously wrong with Ye Yaoâs words apart from the fact that It was just a little exaggerated! But it wasnât an issue, as long as the intention was right! How could Ye Yao, the great beauty, be wrong!
However⦠Gao Qiao patted Huo Buyu on the shoulder. âHuo Buyu, I asked Ye Yao for help, but you actually set the price at 100 yuan. To be honest, I feel very uncomfortable. Helping my parents get back together and getting Ye Yaoâs blessings are priceless to me!â
Huo Buyu raised his eyebrows.. âWhat do you mean?
