nViolent tendencies? That sounded about right.

n

n

nSeeing that Huo Ningxi still looked displeased, Song Jingwan began to panic. She grabbed onto his wrist and said in an aggrieved manner, “I’m simply worried that she will commit a crime if I keep spoiling her like this. Ningxi, others may not understand me, but you do, don’t you? I’m simply worried about you!”

n

n

nHer eyes were watery and she looked like she had been wronged.

n

n

nHuo Ningxi was frustrated but he couldn’t get mad at her when she was looking like this, so he suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice, “Forget it. Go home first. It’s getting dark. I need to visit my grandfather so I’ll leave first.”

n

n

nAfter saying this, he stretched out his hand and flagged down a taxi. He then left without turning back.

n

n

nSong Jingwan was left all on her own standing in place, almost biting her lip until it began to bleed.

n

n

n…

n

n

nInside the car, Song Yaoyao bit her straw and snuck a glance at the man beside her.

n

n

nHe seemed really busy. From the moment she sat in the car, he had been looking through different documents and reports. The car window blocked out most of the light from outside, but the street lights were on and the dim light fell upon one side of his handsome face. His eyelashes were long and sparse, casting a shadow on his lower eyelid.

n

n

nToday, he was dressed in a collared shirt and trousers. Apart from the prayer beads around his wrist, it was almost impossible to connect him with the man that she met at the mountain resort.

n

n

nHis classy and refined temperament was so attractive that it was impossible to draw one’s eyes away from him.

n

n

nSong Yaoyao pursed her lips happily. Seeing that Huo Yunque wasn’t paying attention to her, she grew more courageous.

n

n

nShe shuffled a little closer, and a little more…

n

n

nHuo Yunque removed his glasses and said calmly, “Sit back in your seat.”

n

n

nThe girl was taking advantage of the situation and practically leaning against his arm.

n

n

nSong Yaoyao pouted her lips unhappily, “Awww…”

n

n

nHe tensed his brows and instructed, “Take her home first and we will go to the hospital after.”

n

n

nSitting in the front, Huo Qi nodded his head slightly. “Okay, sir.” He then looked at Song Yaoyao through the rearview mirror and asked, “Miss Song, where do you live? Let us take you home first.”

n

n

nSong Yaoyao suddenly humphed, pretending not to hear Huo Qi as she leaned toward Huo Yunque.

n

n

n“Gege, my head hurts~

n

n

n“Eh—?”

n

n

nShe thought she would lean into Huo Yunque’s arms, but to her surprise, the man lifted his hand and blocked her head.

n

n

nAt the same time, he also blocked her sneaky intentions.

n

n

nSong Yaoyao bumped against him a couple of times and unhappily tore away his hand. “Gege! My head hurts!”

n

n

nSong Yaoyao grabbed onto his hand and repeated herself with a louder voice.

n

n

n“Oh? Really?”

n

n

nThe man’s eyelids lowered and looked at the kitten-like girl by his side. She was particularly petite. He remained calm — it was impossible to see his expression in the dark — but he still produced a suppressive vibe.

n

n

nSong Yaoyao shrunk back her neck and slowly lowered her voice.

n

n

n“Uh huh, it hurts a little,” her delicate voice was soft like cotton. “Don’t you know how to worry about me? All you know how to do is scare little kids!”

n

n

n“Ha…” Huo Yunque wanted to laugh but he didn’t. “Other kids aren’t as clingy as you.”

n

n

nNor were they as violent.

n

n

nRather than putting on an act, this girl’s face-changing performance was at an expert level.

n

n

nMoreover, she was sticky like toffee. Without saying much, she managed to shamelessly lean against him again.

n

n

n“Well…other kids aren’t as pretty as me!” Song Yaoyao humphed. She had just finished drinking her milk tea and she was exuding sweetness.

n

n

nHuo Yunque furrowed his brows. “Song Yaoyao.”

n

n

n“Yes, I’m here~”

n

n

nPeering through his glasses, his gaze returned to the girl’s little face. She was dazzling in the dim light.

n

n

n“You’re quite thick-skinned.”
