Song Yaoyao pursed her lips, lowered her head, and took a sip.
âI think itâs fine.â
âYou already ate some last night.â
âYes, that was last night!â Song Yaoyao quibbled.
Her cheeks were puffy. Huo Yunque poked them with his fingers like a rubber ball, and they deflated.
âNo whining.â
âIâm notââ Song Yaoyao whimpered, her voice getting softer and softer.
Her pinky gently hooked his finger and shook it. A pair of butterfly-like eyelashes fluttered, but she pretended to be innocent.
âIâll give you half a piece after dinner.â
âHuh? Only half a piece?â Song Yaoyao was dissatisfied.
Huo Yunque gave her a half-smile and pointed at the tip of her nose. âSong Yaoyao, donât push your luck, okay? Thereâs an outsider watching beside you, arenât you ashamed?â
âAhemâ¦â
Song Yaoyao rubbed her nose and crawled into Huo Yunqueâs arms. âI forgot!â
Dai Shiqing was so angry that she wanted to curse. How insignificant was she?
After lunch, the Huo Familyâs relatives got ready to leave.
Gu Fenlan held Huo Tianâs hand and said with a smile, âUncle, weâll be leaving first. Weâll be in touch on the phone. Take care of yourself.â
âGoodbye, Grandfather!â
âBrother, weâre leaving.â
Grandfather Huo waved his hand. âBe careful on the road.â
Dai Shiqing looked at Huo Yunque standing behind Grandfather Huo in a daze. His eyes were calm and distant, reflecting the world.
They were brighter than the sun, but also colder than the moonlight.
It was as if anyone who approached him would be burned in the end.
âLetâs go, what are you looking at?âGu Fenlan frowned and pulled her with all her might.
Dai Shiqing came back to her senses with a strong sense of unwillingness in her eyes.
She felt that Song Yaoyao was just a little lucky. How did she get Huo Yunque when she acted like a child every day?
âMiss Dai, bye bye!â
While she was reluctant to leave, a petite figure poked her head out from behind the man and waved at her with a smile.
Her expression was harmless, but her smile was sweet and soft.
Dai Shiqing looked over and saw a deep malice in her eyes.
Her heart rose and fell as she gritted her teeth and turned around to get into her car.
The car was queued up and it gradually disappeared along the spacious road.
In the car, Gu Fenlan exhaled and said coldly, âYou donât need to go to work in the future. Thi nk of it as us owing you. Weâre really afraid of you.â
Dai Shiqing pursed her lips. âIs Auntie still angry? Iâll resign. I wonât cause trouble for you and uncle.â
âMom! What are you doing!â Huo Tian was stunned. âSister Qingqingâs outstanding work ability is obvious to everyone. Why should she resign? Itâs not fair!â
âShut up!â
Gu Fenlan glared at her, âDonât blame Auntie for being cowardly. Itâs important to know oneâs own limits. Your Uncle doesnât have much ability. Shoucheng is alright, but he wouldnât be able to win in a fight. Weâre both old and only have Tiantian as a daughter. Whatâs the point of having so much property? The things left for her now are enough for her to live comfortably for the rest of her life. Qingqing, I also advise you to be more open-minded. There are many outstanding boys pursuing you. Thereâs no need for you toâ¦â
âAuntie, I understand.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Dai Shiqing interrupted her with a gentle smile.
It was as if she had accepted it humbly. However, as someone who had watched her grow up, how could Gu Fenlan not know her nieceâs ambition?
Her heart was as lofty as the skyâ¦
Unfortunately, her life was as thin as paper!
âAs you wish. Thatâs all I have to say.â
â¦
After the New Year, everything started to recover.
Song Yaoyao went to the Wei family for a meal as promised. Song Rui, on the other hand, called her several times to ask her to go back to the Song Manor for a meal.
