“Child.”
Huo Shidu suddenly spoke.
The little fellow looked up at him when he heard this.
Who knew…
Huo Shidu walked in front of him and squatted lazily on one knee, looking at the little fellow at eye level.
He slowly took a wet tissue from the table and wiped the pen marks on the little fellow’s arm. “You’re not as good-looking as Older Brother. She won’t like you.”
“So be good. Older Sister won’t care about you, got it?”
Suddenly, the little fellow, whose eyes were exquisite and cute, widened his eyes. After a while, tears slowly gathered up again.
“Sob. Brother, you’re lying!”
The little fellow was crying very sadly, but the handsome and dignified man didn’t have any sense of shame.
“Okay, stop crying.”
He took a few pieces of paper from the table and slowly wiped the little fellow’s tears. “You look even uglier like this.”
Hearing this, the little fellow’s cries became even more heart-wrenching.
Even the Old Madam, who was downstairs, thought that something had happened and rushed upstairs. She bumped into Pei Yunge, who was about to open the door.
Then…
The moment Pei Yunge pushed open the door, the two of them saw at the same time that the little fellow was crying terribly and pitifully.
“Brother, what’s going on?” Pei Yunge didn’t expect to see this scene the moment she returned after drinking water.
“It’s alright, the old lady will pacify him. Come, I’ll take you to see your room.”
With a clear conscience, Huo Shidu left with her.
However, at the thought of the little fellow crying so terribly just now, Pei Yunge could not regain her senses.
Then suddenly-
The man in front of her stopped walking. Not paying attention, she bumped into him.
Pei Yunge felt a throbbing pain from the collision. Fortunately, the man in front had a hand on the back of her head and prevented her from falling backwards.
However…
With that, Pei Yunge heard the man’s magnetic voice that was filled with amusement ring from above her head, as if he was deliberately teasing her eardrums. “Yunyun, Older Brother can’t stand you throwing yourself into my arms like this.”
“…Brother, I think I have a nosebleed.”
…
“Yunyun, be good and lower your head.”
Pei Yunge sat on the chair with her head slightly lowered, allowing the man to treat her wound. However, she could still hear the suppressed smile in the man’s deep and magnetic voice.
“…”
Why was this man’s chest so hard?
Was it made of stone??
However, it was a good thing that Huo Shidu had turned around and caught her just now. If not, she might be covered in injuries from the fall.
“Why are you looking at Older Brother like that, Yunyun?”
The man’s slender fingers changed the bloody cotton ball to a new one. “Does it still hurt?”
Pei Yunge watched as the man’s upturned eyes revealed a lazy and charming smile. Her eyelids twitched unconsciously.
“…Brother, is it very funny?”
“Hm?”
“You’ve been smiling.” Pei Yunge casually stated the truth.
“No, Older Brother’s heart aches for Yunyun.”
After Huo Shidu was done treating Pei Yunge’s wound, he watched as the girl sat obediently on the chair and remained expressionless. He could not help but look away as the corners of his lips curled up.
This little girl was really adorable.
However, Pei Yunge, who saw this, did not think so.
Pei Yunge was speechless.
Indeed, this man’s words could not be trusted.
“You can leave first.”
Now that Pei Yunge was staring at Huo Shidu, the bridge of her nose hurt slightly.
“You don’t want Older Brother to coax you to sleep anymore?”
Huo Shidu thought that the little girl’s pride was hurt, so he restrained the smile on his lips and spoke patiently.
