Chapter 12
You Are My Starlight
Run Away From Home (Part 4)
But she couldnât say for sure, given the bossâs character.
He wouldnât chase Su Mianmian away, but he would personally send her home.
The boss would definitely say things like he couldnât keep underaged girls overnight etc...
Sigh. Su Mianmian actually hadnât thought of what to do.
She was definitely not going home.
Why would she want to go home? Since she already knew that she was going to be sold by her family, would she still want to go back and help them count money?
Seeing Su Mianmian not talking, Dongdong pulled her hand and asked, âDo you want to come and play at my house?â
The idea stayed in her mind for a second before Su Mianmian shook her head and rejected it.
âHuh? That wouldnât be nice.â It seemed a little imposing to go the house of a new friend whom she hadnât known for long.
âThereâs nothing wrong. Thereâs only Little Fire and me in the house. My father has gone on a business trip and I donât know when heâll be back.â
âWellâ¦â
âMiemie, are we not friends? You canât reject a friendâs invitation, that would be disloyal to friends.â Dongdong pestered Su Mianmian.
âAll right then.â She would just go take a look, since she had no place to go anyway. Moreover, it was still early, and she could leave if it wasnât convenient.
...
Su Mianmian stood at the entrance of the villa and was totally shocked!
The floor area was a few thousand square feet, and standing on both sides of the entrance were servants in neat uniforms.
After seeing Dongdong, they took a ninety-degree bow and said loudly.
âWelcome back, little young master.â
What does Dongdongâs family do? They donât look like just normal mass affluent.
âDongdongâ¦â Su Mianmian pulled at Dongdong and said, âI suddenly rememberâ¦â
âThat you have something to do? Miemie, this excuse is too cliche.â Dongdong held Su Mianmianâs hand and said, âCome on, youâre already here, just go in and play for a while.â
And then Su Mianmian was pulled into the house by Dongdong.
Perhaps because Su Mianmian wasnât used to having many people around, the servants left after putting some snacks on the table.
Dongdong sat on the chair, happily eating cake while he said, âSure enough, strawberry cake is still the best.â
Seeing him gobble up one in a few bites and dirtying his mouth, Su Mianmian took out a tissue and helped him wipe his mouth.
âMiemie, come have some too.â Dongdong comfortably used his hair to rub Su Mianmianâs hand.
Su Mianmian was delighted at once seeing him behave like a small animal.
âWhy do you behave like Little Fire?â
âLittle Fire learned it from me.â Dongdong said proudly, âOh, Iâll bring Little Fire over.â
With this, Dongdong jumped down from the chair and ran out.
Su Mianmian looked a little helplessly at the room in which she was alone.
After a while, a man around fifty years old walked in. After seeing Su Mianmian, he asked politely, âHello miss, how should I address you?â
Su Mianmian looked up and guess from his outfit that he was the housekeeper.
âMy name is Su Mianmian.â
âHello Miss Su, this is the first time little young master brought a friend back.â The housekeeper said with a smile. âWe are already preparing dinner. May I know if you have any dietary restrictions?â
Su Mianmian shook her head a little embarrassed and said, âIâm fine with anything.â
The housekeeper looked at the cake in front of her and said, âIs the cake not to your liking, Miss Su? We have cakes of other flavors.â
âErm, Iâm just not hungry, not that the cake is not to my liking.â
The housekeeper smiled. âAll right, Iâll get someone to come in and add some tea for you, Miss Su.â
Su Mianmian rarely had people show concern toward her, and was suddenly at a loss. Fortunately, Dongdong came in at this moment.
âGrandpa Housekeeper, I want chicken wings in Coca Cola tonight.â
âAll right, little young master. Play with your friend first, I will get the kitchen to prepare.â The housekeeper left after he finished speaking.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âBaaâ¦â Little Fire who was in Dongdongâs arms looked up at Su Mianmian with a cute face.
Su Mianmianâs heart melted at once, and she reached out to touch Little Fireâs head.
It was nice to touch something so furry.
Little Fire stuck out its tongue and licked her hand. It felt a little itchy.
âMiemie, letâs play with Little Fire.â Dongdong suggested.
âHow?â
Dongdong stood up, threw some grass that he had gotten out of nowhere, and said loudly, âLittle Fire, run like lightning!â
âBaa!â Little Fire ran off wildly with its short legs.
â...â Isnât this like playing fetch with a dog?
So you can also play fetch with a lamb?
