Chapter 997: Master Pei’s Gift
Yu Huan was furious. She wanted to drag Pei Yunge away, so that she would stay away from her cousin!
When Wen Jiuwan saw this, the corners of her lips could not help twitching. She did not expect Pei Yunge to be so childish.
“Brother.”
After Pei Yunge saw the little girl fuming, she turned around, wanting to coax him again.
“You want to accompany Ceng Xu too?”
The man asked slowly.
Pei Yunge was speechless.
Why was this d*mn man so hard to please?
Soon…
Yu Huan also started to act coy. “Brother Huo, are you planning to go back to the old mansion for Christmas today? Momo will definitely miss you. We should be happy as a family during the holidays!”
The man’s tone was light. “How can I be happy with him around?”
Yu Huan’s smile froze.
Reality proved that it was better not to talk nonsense with Huo Shidu.
Only Pei Yunge raised an eyebrow when she heard this, a playful look in her eyes.
…
After they got out of the car, Yu Huan and Wen Jiuwan bidded farewell obediently and Ceng Xu sent them home.
Pei Yunge followed behind Huo Shidu. She felt the man’s footsteps getting faster and faster. It was a little difficult to follow him.
She would get back at Ceng Xu about this no matter what.
Suddenly.
Hearing Pei Yunge call out, Huo Shidu, who was walking in front, immediately turned around, thinking that Pei Yunge had sprained her ankle.
But in the next second…
Seeing her pounce over, Huo Shidu opened his arms instinctively and let her fall into his arms.
Her two hands hugged his waist tightly, unwilling to let go.
Sometimes…
It was hard to reject a young woman’s direct, passionate fondness and blatant affection.
“Brother, don’t be angry. I didn’t go for a meal with him either.”
The surroundings were filled with snow. The man’s tall figure became even more dignified. The corners of his lips curled up imperceptibly.
However, he only said carelessly, “Then when did you go out with him at night?”
Pei Yunge was speechless.
It seemed like Ceng Xu could not stay.
Before Pei Yunge could speak…
The man suddenly reached out lazily and helped the little girl tidy her black hair. His voice was a low and magnetic laugh, making one’s mind fuzzy. “My little girl is getting prettier the more she is raised. She is indeed easy to remember.”
Including Pei Yunge, who looked at him in shock instinctively.
“I have a meeting. Go back and change your clothes first. If you miss Old Master Qin, I’ll arrange for a driver to send you to the Qin family old manor.”
However, Pei Yunge somehow felt that the man was not in a good mood.
In the living room.
Pei Yunge leaned against the sofa and dried her hair. Aunt Miao brought a bowl of soup over. “Miss, quickly have some soup to warm you up.”
“Thank you, Aunt Miao.”
Pei Yunge smiled and took it quickly.
Aunt Miao said with a smile, “Drink slowly. Aunt Miao will dry your hair for you.”
All along, Aunt Miao doted on Pei Yunge a lot and was as concerned about her as her biological daughter was.
“Sir really dotes on Miss. Usually, on this day, Sir never comes back.”
Aunt Miao said with a smile as she helped Pei Yunge dry her hair.
“To the old mansion?” Pei Yunge asked instinctively.
Aunt Miao shook her head. “Usually on this day, Sir is almost always overseas. He will only return after about a month.”
Pei Yunge’s eyes darkened and she slowed down her drinking of the soup.
“He must have specially stayed behind to accompany Miss for the holiday today!” Aunt Miao could not stop smiling.
Pei Yunge looked towards the second floor unconsciously.
…
Soon.
Huo Shidu heard a knock on the door outside the study.
“Brother, I have a gift for you after the meeting.”
The man raised an eyebrow, but the rest of the people in the conference video did not hear the voice outside the door.
