âThis child sure knows how to speak nonsense, haha...â
Song Rui rubbed his hands and smiled in an awkward yet polite manner. âMr. Huo, please donât lower yourself to the level of a child. Yaoyao isââ
âI wasnât talking nonsense!â
âItâs fine.â
Two voices sounded at the same time.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
As soon as they spoke, Song Ruiâs lips twitched. It took a lot of control to prevent himself from laughing out loud.
From the looks of it, Mr. Huo cares about Yaoyao a lot.
âGege~ I donât want to leave~ Can you bear to see me leave?â
Song Yaoyao gently tugged on the corner of his shirt, her lips so pouted that she could hang something from it. Grunting like a little creature, she added, âAlso, if I go home, Iâm going to be bullied. Mrs. Song dislikes me so much that itâs unclear whether she may get physical and hit me.â
âHuhuhu...â Her cheeks were puffed and her eyes were teary. âLook at how skinny I am. I will definitely be no match for her. Will she beat me to death?â
Cough cough coughâ
Huo Ningxi was speechless. He held onto his chin which was about to drop in surprise and rolled his eyes.
Listen to that, the bratâs not acting like a human again.
This time, she even set up her own mother!
âWhat did you say? When have I ever hit you?â Zhou Manli glared at her. This time, she had really lost her mind.
If Song Yaoyao accused her of emotional abuse, that may be true. But getting physically violent and actually hitting her? She hadnât laid her hand on even a single finger of hers.
However, she had no idea that emotional abuse was sometimes harder to accept than violence.
One was physical, the other was mental.
âMr. Huo, donât listen to her nonsense. I really didnât do anything...â
Zhou Manli glared at Song Yaoyao secretly and warned her that enough was enough.
Song Yaoyao cried even louder when she heard these words, âHuhuhu, Gege! Look, sheâs still glaring at me!â
She buried her head into Huo Yunqueâs arms, tightly holding his waist with her small hands, and refused to let go, secretly copping a feel while she cried.
Huo Yunqueâs face remained calm. His palm slowly fell on the back of her neck, and he squeezed it in warning.
Song Yaoyao pouted her lips, received the signal, and didnât dare to move.
She obediently lay in his arms and touched him again rebelliously.
Wow, Gege is in really good shape. Even through his shirt, I can feel the contours of his muscles...
Hm, I wonder when Iâll get the chance to see them with my own eyes.
In Huo Ningxiâs eyes, she looked completely shameless.
âSong Yaoyao! What girl is like that? Donât you know that men and women should maintain a respectable distance? Hurry and stand properly!â Zhou Manli couldnât resist anymore and stretched out her hand to pull Song Yaoyao away.
Song Rui frowned and took a glance at the abnormal Zhou Manli.
To be honest, he didnât want to force Song Yaoyao to go home with him. In fact, even if she and Huo Yunque took things to the next step and slept with each other, he would actually be happy.
But what did Zhou Manli have planned?
âMrs. Song...â
Before Zhou Manliâs hand reached Song Yaoyao, a big hand blocked her.
The man leaned against the sofa casually. Even though the girl had wrinkled up his shirt, it did not take away from his restrained and proud temperament.
âAs an outsider, I have no right to evaluate whether you are a good mother. But I must say, a child would not dislike their mother to this point if she was actually good to her, right?â
The man smirked as he glanced at her.
In an instant, overwhelming pressure crushed down on her. Zhou Manliâs knees felt weak and the hairs on her back stood on end.
