Then, he tried to wrap his small hand around hers but could not do it no matter what. He was worried. Mommy’s hand was too big. When would his hand wrap around Mommy’s hand?
“It’s not a cold. Someone must have said bad things about me behind my back.” After saying that, Ling Sheng sighed deeply and looked up at the setting sun. Perhaps it was her biological father.
“Mommy.” Xiaoqi was relieved when he heard that it was not a cold. He looked up at her seriously. “Perhaps someone has missed you.”
Ling Sheng thought for a while. Who would miss her?
Xiaoqi held her hand and followed her on his short legs, his face full of happiness.

The next day, Ling Sheng took Xiaoqi to the Su Family with her grandparents. The previous night, she had told the group, so everyone who could make it to the old residence had gone over. It was a lively day.
Huo Ci only returned home a week later. When he reached the elevator, he was stopped. The security guard gave him two boxes of items and told him Ms. Ling had left them.
Huo Ci frowned. When he got home, he opened the boxes and saw that they were full of Snow White strawberries. The guard had placed them in the fridge, so they were a little cold.
However, the strawberries were rotten. Snow White strawberries were the worst. Most of them were spoiled, and there were not many good ones left.
He threw them on the coffee table carelessly. Then, he lay on the sofa and switched on the television. As he watched the ball game and ate snacks, he got thirsty. “Ling Xiaoqi, bring me a glass of water.”
He waited for a long time, but there was no response. His face darkened, and the potato chips in his hand were no longer fragrant. He threw them on the floor.
F*ck!
He got up to get some water.
Get lost, get lost, get lost. Get as far away as possible.
The huge living room was empty and extremely irritating. He turned the volume of the television to the maximum and switched to a hilarious variety show. He just ate and laughed.
He fell asleep as he watched television. When he woke up, the sky was already dark. He got up in a daze and knocked on Ling Sheng’s door. “You brat, look at the time. Why aren’t you cooking? Do you want to starve me to death?”
Only his voice echoed in the air. After a while, he remembered that everyone had left. He kicked the door angrily and squatted down to cover his toes in pain.
The doorbell suddenly rang.
Huo Ci’s eyes lit up, and anticipation and surprise flashed across his face. Then, he opened the door as though nothing had happened. That brat must not be able to take it anymore.
What kind of job are the guards doing? Who asked them to let her in?
The door opened.
Just as he was about to scold her properly, he saw Lu Yubai’s smiling face. His handsome face darkened as he growled in annoyance, “Scram! Who told you to come here?”
Lu Yubai entered the house directly and took a look around before asking, “Where’s Sheng Sheng and Xiaoqi?”
Huo Ci let out a cold snort. “I kicked them out. What are you doing here?”
Lu Yubai gave him a look and nodded before turning around to leave. “I’m here to play with Sheng Sheng and Xiaoqi. If they’re not around, I’ll be leaving. Enjoy your lonely life, Sixth Brother!”
Huo Ci flew into a rage instantly and kicked him out before slamming the door shut.
F*ck!
Sheng Sheng, Xiaoqi… He sure refers to them rather affectionately!
Humph!
Lonely life?
Who was the lonely one? He would be happy and comfortable living alone!
Lu Yubai reached the elevator and turned around to knock on the door.
Huo Ci thought that it was good to have brothers. Upon realizing that he was home alone, his brother had returned to keep him company. He stopped for a while before opening the door. He could not let him see that he was alone. He was living a good life. This lonely life was the normal life he should be living. He was just restoring his messed-up life to its original state. “What are you doing here?”
Lu Yubai said, “Sixth Brother, I’ll just ask. Where are Xiaoqi and Sheng Sheng living now?”
