Chapter 211: Chapter 211: Saying One Thing but Meaning Another_1
“What’s wrong? Shocked?” Huo Beijiang deliberately took advantage of her, thinking she would struggle in anger and annoyance. He loved watching her, furious and annoyed, yet helpless.
It was incredibly lively and spirited.
Nan Fei stared straight at him, saying nothing.
“Did I scare you?” Huo Beijiang released her, gently cradling her hand in his palm, cooing in a gentle voice, “Want to see your little brother? He’s just next door. I can carry you there.”
Nan Fei came back to her senses after a long pause, feigning casually, “Okay! I can walk on my own.”
“How can that be?” Huo Beijiang rejected outright, “Finally got the chance to hold you, you think I’d let it go?” As he spoke, he flashed a mischievous grin, bending down to lift her in a princess hold without any exertion.
Not giving Nan Fei a chance to refuse or even consider.
“You…” she hesitated a bit before feebly asking, “Could you respect my opinions in the future?”
“I know you women always say something but mean the opposite.” Huo Beijiang gave her a smirk that read ‘you think I’m an idiot?’.”
Who the hell fed him with this twisted perception, indoctrinating him with such straight-guy thinking?
The two wards were very close. Outside, the sky was turning the color of a fish belly, the corridor was silent. Huo Beijiang carried Nai Fei to the neighboring ward but stopped at the door without going in.
Peering through the window in the door, you could see Jiang Yang lie on the hospital bed, deep in sweet sleep.
Zhang Fengmei was seated by the bed, supporting her head with one hand and nodding off frequently. She appeared to be battling extreme fatigue, wanting to sleep but resisting the urge to say so.
“Would you like to go in?”
“No!” Nan Fei shook her head lightly, witnessing the conspicuous dark circles under her mother’s eyes, she did not wish to disturb her. As long as her brother was fine and her family was well, she was happy.
In Providence City, He Family Residence
Walking side by side with someone, He Shasha chatted and laughed through the entire stroll. Only when she stepped into the living room did her smile gradually fade. She cast a cold gaze at Little Tao, who was hastily trying to avoid her, and shouted, “Little Tao, stop right there.”
Standing beside her was a young man in his twenties, his handsome face lit up with an aura of masculinity. He stood to the side, hands in his trouser pockets, leaning sideways against a high cabinet, mouth curled up into a smile as he watched the situation unfold.
Clearly enjoying the coming spectacle.
“Miss, you… Do you have any orders?” Little Tao shrank her shoulders. Although she paused, she did not dare to come forward. Her previous scheme against He Shasha had thoroughly offended her.
If the lady of the house was home, with someone having her back, she would not only not fear her but also dare to deliberately provoke her. Irritate her in front of the master and get him angry, that would win the lady’s heart even more.
But the lady and the master had left yesterday and hadn’t returned yet. No one in the house could control He Shasha, so Little Tao could only avoid her.
Little Tao’s enchanting peach blossom eyes stole a glance at the silent man who had just walked in. There was a flash of fear in her eyes. Although she had not been at the He family for long, she had heard of this young master.
The biological brother of the former mistress and the biggest backing for He Shasha.
“Didn’t you hear me? I told you to come here.” He Shasha’s face darkened increasingly, her eyes filled with malevolence as she glared at Little Tao.
The more she reacted this way, the more guilty and afraid Little Tao became. Not running away immediately was already a big concession. How could she possibly present herself to He Shasha willingly? “Miss, if you need anything, tell the butler. I am in charge of taking care of the lady.”
In other words, anything you need don’t talk to me about it, it’s useless if you do.
