Chapter 843: Huo Yingcheng, Yu Bao’er (15)
“I’m not going!”
Huo Yingcheng frowned. “You’re going overboard huh, Qingjiu.”
“I don’t need you to take me. I’ll walk around by myself!”
Yu Bao’er scoffed at Huo Yingcheng, then set down the empty candy basket and walked into the room.
The situation astonished Gu Qingjiu. “What’s going on between the two of you? Brother Huo, did Bao’er offend you? If she did something wrong, you can tell me. You don’t have to spite her in public like this. It would appear unchivalrous of you to do so…”
Huo Yingcheng let out a ‘tsk’ internally as he watched Yu Bao’er dash inside.
How petty of this lass.
Helian Niancheng noticed the situation, but he didn’t come over. He merely tilted his head at Huo Yingcheng, indicating for him to go in.
Damn. What had he gotten himself into?
Huo Yingcheng had no choice but to go in and take a look.
He didn’t do that deliberately either. He merely felt that this lass was heartless.
After nearly getting into big trouble last night, she didn’t seem to remember any of it. When she woke the next day she acted like nothing happened.
If she didn’t learn her lesson, she would go around thinking that everyone in this world was a good person.
After entering the main hall, Huo Yingcheng saw a confused-looking Yu Bao’er gazing left and right.
It was obvious that this lass had lost her way.
Looking at Yu Bao’er, Huo Yingcheng laughed. But before he was done laughing, a slap came at him out of nowhere. “Darned boy, did you upset the young lady?”
Huo Yingcheng, who was stunned by the slap, turned around. “Mom, why are you here again?”
“What do you mean by why am I here? Don’t tell me I’m not allowed to be concerned about your affairs?”
His mother appeared extremely displeased. Meanwhile, her conversation with Huo Yingcheng had already attracted Yu Bao’er’s attention, who was in front.
As the duo was speaking in Mandarin, Huo Yingcheng found it embarrassing and quickly pulled his mother to one side.
His mother was displeased and shook off his hand. With a benevolent smile of a mother on her face, she gazed at Yu Bao’er and halted in her actions, elegantly waving a hand at her.
Yu Bao’er: “…”
This person seemed to be Huo Yingcheng’s mother?
Huo Yingcheng stood by the side awkwardly but had no idea how to stop his mother. He felt a headache.
Yu Bao’er thought it would be rude not to go over to greet his mother, so she walked over and did so. “Hi Auntie, how do you do?”
“Aye, hello, hello.”
Huo Yingcheng’s mother gave her a vibrant and gentle smile. “I saw you yesterday but didn’t get the chance to formally say hello to you. Let me formally introduce myself: I am this good-for-nothing fellow’s mother.”
Huo Yingcheng: “…”
What good-for-nothing!
While his mother disparaged him, Huo Yingcheng could only watch as his mother forcibly tried to start a conversation with Yu Bao’er.
Because Yu Bao’er was visibly confused.
She had merely come over to say hello. Huo Yingcheng’s mother was so overwhelmingly friendly that she didn’t quite know how to react.
Towards the end, Huo Yingcheng couldn’t take it anymore and stepped out to stop her. “Alright alright, Mom. You should go outside and help attend to those guests. I have something to say to her.”
Hearing this, his mother glared at him. But as she wanted to give them private space, she said to Yu Bao’er with a smile, “Then Auntie will be leaving first. Have fun here. Get Huo Yingcheng to bring you around. If he upsets you in any way, feel free to tell me. I’ll help you fix him!”
Huo Yingcheng: “…”
Yu Bao’er: “…”
