But Song Rui and Zhou Manli kept feeling that Uncle Zhangâs attitude was a little strange.
It was as though Song Yaoyao was a part of the Huo Family and they were guests.
The Huos had always kept a low profile, but no one dared to mess with them.
No matter how angry Song Rui was, he did not dare to express it in front of Uncle Zhang, even though he was just a butler.
âNo, youâre being too polite. We didnât arrive long. It appears as though Mr. Huo is home? Thatâs great, we brought some gifts, and we want to personally thank him for taking care of our Yaoyao.â
âOh? I see...â
Uncle Zhang was surprised. âBut the Master doesnât see guests often. Go in and sit first. Iâll notify him, okay?â
Song Rui nodded his head frantically. âOf course!â
Zhou Manli felt a little awkward. As she watched Uncle Zhang lead them into the house, she couldnât help but pout her lips and whisper, âIsnât he just a servant? Why is he acting so arrogant?â
It was almost like he was at a higher status than them!
âWhat do you know?â
Song Rui was extremely regretful for bringing Zhou Manli along. If he knew this would happen, he would have come alone.
This stupid woman only knew how to create trouble.
The domestic helpers of a prestigious family were artful at dealing with people. Apparently, this butler had been working for the Huos for several decades and held immense power. And Song Rui had seen clearly that Uncle Zhang treated Song Yaoyao more affectionately than Huo Ningxi.
He even heard that Mr. Huo asked about Song Yaoyao when he didnât see her home yet.
âEither way, you better behave. Donât say anything that you shouldnât! This isnât a place where you can cause trouble. If you offend someone, our family does not have the ability to go up against them. Think about how good your life is, think about Jingwan, and make your own decision!â
At the mention of Song Jingwan, Zhou Manliâs expression immediately warmed up.
She lowered her voice and said impatiently, âI know what to do. I donât need you to remind me.â
After all, she would never do anything to hurt her Wanwan.
âGege...!â
As soon as Song Yaoyao entered, she saw Huo Yunque walking downstairs wearing a coat. She immediately pounced toward him like a cannonball,
âYaoyao...!â Song Ruiâs eyelids twitched. Before he even saw Huo Yunqueâs face, the scene was a blur as Song Yaoyao rushed over and pounced into the manâs arms.
âGege, I missed you~â
The girl had her arms around the manâs waist as she buried herself in his chest coquettishly.
The man caught her and held onto her shoulder. Without rejecting her, he lifted his gaze and stared calmly at the people in the living room.
âThis is...?â
Uncle Zhang immediately introduced with a smile, âSir, these two are Miss Songâs parents. They are here to take Miss Song home.â
âMr. Huo?â Zhou Manli didnât know how to react as she scanned her eyes up and down the man with her mouth gaping in surprise.
As the mysterious master of the Huo Family, wasnât he too young?
Moreover, he was ridiculously good-looking...
âSmall Uncle, Iâm back.â
However, Zhou Manliâs doubts were quickly cleared as Huo Ningxi answered her question. By calling him Small Uncle, the manâs identity was confirmed.
Zhou Manli was caught by surprise. In her mind, she imagined him to be a mature middle-aged man in his thirties who wasnât much different from Song Rui.
So knowing that Song Yaoyao liked Huo Ningxiâs Small Uncle, she felt half disgusted and half complicated.
She was well aware of how she treated Song Yaoyao. If she actually gained power and came back for revenge in the future, what would she do?
