Even if Ji Wei was not a big shot in Liang Yi’s eyes, someone whom Liang Yi deemed to be powerful would definitely have a certain background.

“Yaoyao, come out for dinner. Brother Cheng made your favorite braised fish today. You must cat more later.” Yin Tao learned about what happened between Cheng Fei and Cheng Yao while cooking with Cheng Fei.

Cheng Yao’s classmates heard from somewhere that Cheng Fei was a pretty boy who was kept by someone. Cheng Yao was very angry and fought with her classmates. The teacher asked to meet her parents.

Cheng Fei went to school to make compensation and apologize to the other party before settling this matter. Cheng Yao was very depressed, so she lost her temper for a while.

Cheng Fei was afraid that his sister’s studies would be affected because of his matters, so he didn’t dare to say anything. In his opinion, it didn’t matter how he was, but he cared a lot about Cheng Yao’s feelings.

That was why Cheng Fei had been depressed recently. Cheng Yao had also reduced the number of times she went home. Yin Tao comforted Cheng Fei in the kitchen for a while and even took the initiative to take on the responsibility of mediating the conflict between the siblings.

Yin Tao didn’t think that Cheng Yao would feel embarrassed because of Cheng Fei and Liang Yi. She could tell that Cheng Yao cared more about her brother than anyone else.

Because of Liang Yi and Feng Jing, the atmosphere at the dining table was a little awkward. Although Yin Tao tried her best to lighten the atmosphere, it was inevitable that there would be an awkward silence.

Everyone was deep in their own thoughts during the meal. After the meal, Feng Jing and Liang Yi took the initiative to clean up.

Originally, Liang Yi had hired an auntie, but Cheng Fei didn’t like to have outsiders in the home, so Liang Yi replaced the nanny auntie with a housekeeper who only came once a week.

Usually, Cheng Fei was the one cleaning up. Today, because there were a lot of people, Feng Jing and Liang Yi took the initiative to help.

Cheng Yao dragged Yin Tao to her bedroom to chat, while Cheng Fei went to cut fruits for them. Other than Feng Jing and Liang Yi, everyone was in a good state.

Yin Tao was pulled to the bedroom by Cheng Yao. She was also very happy when Cheng Yao showed her paintings during this period of time.

“Yaoyao, you can definitely fulfill your dream.” Yin Tao really felt that Cheng Yao was very talented. There weren’t many children who were talented and willing to work hard like her.

“Sister Xiaotao, thank you for believing in me.” Cheng Yao was a little touched. There were many things about her that Cheng Yao would only tell Yin Tao. In her heart, she had long treated Yin Tao as someone just as important as Cheng Fei.

“Yaoyao, I heard from your brother that you had a conflict with your classmate some time ago?” Yin Tao remembered what she had promised Cheng Fei and wanted to talk to Cheng Yao about what happened in school.

When Cheng Yao heard Yin Tao ask about the matter, she lowered her head nervously and muttered softly, “They were the ones who talked about my brother first. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have made a move.”

Yin Tao finally saw a trace of innocence on Cheng Yao’s face that befitted her age. Being too sensible sometimes made Cheng Yao look more mature than her peers.

“People who want to be police officers can’t casually fight with their classmates,” Yin Tao deliberately said seriously. When she saw Cheng Yao’s nervous expression, she quickly changed her tone.

“I know that you’re doing this to protect your brother, but sometimes we have to use a more rational solution.”

Yin Tao’s heart ached for Cheng Yao as she stroked her hair. She seemed to have herself in Cheng Yao. Cheng Yao was the same as Yin Tao. Most of the time, she was alone. When she encountered a problem, she had to think of a solution alone.

“I know I was wrong, Sister Xiaotao, but I really don’t want anyone to say anything bad about my brother. He’s already worked very hard. He shouldn’t be treated like this.”

Yin Tao gently pulled Cheng Yao into her arms and said to her gently, “Yaoyao, your brother also loves you and cares about you. He also doesn’t want you to be hurt. This is also the reason why he isn’t supportive of you being a police officer.”

“But I can do it well. I can definitely protect him!” Cheng Yao explained to Yin Tao seriously, “My brother has always treated me as a child. Actually, there are many things I understand, including the matter between him and Liang Yi. If their relationship is really good, I am supportive of them being together.”

Yin Tao didn’t expect Cheng Yao to be so direct.. She nervously glanced at the tightly shut bedroom door and asked, “If their relationship wasn’t that good, what would you do?”
