Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Do you still need to thank him for helping you with a purpose?”

Su Qing raised her eyebrows and asked back. She looked at her cousin, who was bewitched by Chu Jingfeng’s manly charm. Without being beaten up by society, she quickly assumed that the other party was a good person and as innocent as Xiaoying.

“You have a motive? What’s your motive?”

Luan Hong looked at her cousin in confusion. Wasn’t this too alarmist? Young Master Chu had money and looks. What did he have to gain? What purpose could he have?

“In short, you should contact him less in the future.”

Su Qing didn’t want to explain to her cousin and left the restaurant. Luan Hong chased her to the door and didn’t call her when she saw her cousin get on the horse. She looked at her cousin’s back in confusion. She always felt too suspicious and didn’t treat anyone as a good person.

When she was in Mo City, because Young Master Qiu had stayed with her in the winery for two days, her cousin felt he did not have good intentions.

Luan Hong thought that her cousin didn’t trust people. Young Master Qiu was gentle and was Ji Shuisheng’s friend. He even handed the money to Qiu Yongkang for safekeeping, which proved that Qiu Yongkang’s character was very reliable.

When Luan Hong thought of this, she felt her cousin was even more paranoid and wrongly accused Young Master Chu.

Thinking of how Young Master Chu smiled at her, Luan Hong’s face turned red, and she became increasingly embarrassed. She patted her chest, afraid of her heart beating wildly, and took a deep breath. When she saw the workers secretly looking at her, Luan Hong put away her flirtatious thoughts, and her face sank. She shouted at the craftsmen workers,

“Hurry up. If you miss the construction period, I’ll deduct your money.”

On one side, Luan Hong was watching the craftsmen renovate. On the other side, Su Qing rode her horse back to the Su residence. She had just jumped off the horse when Xiao Qi opened the door to welcome her as if she knew she was back. Seeing her long-lost Master, Xiao Qi’s big eyes flashed with tears of grievance.

“Master, Xiao Qi thought you forgot about me.”

After Xiao Qi finished speaking, she ran over to Su Qing with her short legs and plunged into her Master’s arms.

Su Qing looked at the little guy who had gained weight in her arms. “Did you miss me? Why did you gain weight?”

Xiao Qi heard her Master’s voice and looked up at Su Qing, “It’s because I miss Master that Xiao Qi can’t control herself from eating.”

“Little rascal.”

Su Qing tapped Xiao Qi’s forehead. She could even say this. The little fellow had become cunning.

“Xiao Qi, where are you?”

Xiao Chen’s tender voice came from the manor. Xiao Qi quickly hid in her Master’s arms, “I can’t see, Xiao Qi.”

Xiao Qi was afraid of Xiao Chen. Su Qing looked at her with amusement. Wasn’t she afraid of nothing but herself? Her little brother was so cute; why would she be frightened?

“Big sister.”

When Xiao Chen saw the door open a little, he poked his head out from inside. His eyes lit up when he saw his sister carrying Xiao Qi. He shouted excitedly, “Sister!” and ran over the high threshold to Su Qing.

Su Qing hadn’t seen her brother for a few days and realized he had grown taller. His little apple face had become rounder, and his big eyes were still watery and sparkling like dewy black grapes. He looked more mischievous and naughty, but he was even cuter.

“Did you bully Xiao Qi?”

Su Qing lifted her brother high and asked him with a straight face. Xiao Chen pouted his petal-like lips and looked at his sister with big eyes.

“Xiao Qi doesn’t even play with Xiao Chen.”

Xiao Qi looked at Little Master with a helpless expression. Wasn’t she going to play with him? He was too energetic and did not allow her to rest momentarily.

Xiao Qi had the habit of taking a nap every day. She slept to replenish her spiritual power to make herself brighter and healthier. However, when it came to Jingshi Dao, Xiao Chen did not let her nap for a day. It scared Xiao Qi so much that she could not escape his demonic claws.

Don’t bully Xiao Qi.”

Su Qing saw Xiao Qi’s hopeless eyes and knew she wasn’t lying, so she sternly lectured her brother.

“Xiao Chen didn’t bully Xiao Qi. Xiao Chen just wanted to play with Xiao Qi.”

Xiao Chen’s eloquence was now clear, and his ability to express himself had strengthened. He seriously explained to his sister.

“Xiao Qi needs to take an afternoon nap every day. Are you not letting her sleep?”

Su Qing also heard Xiao Qi’s inner thoughts. Thinking of Xiao Qi’s torture these days, Su Qing also felt sorry for Xiao Qi, so she warned her brother to let Xiao Qi sleep.

“… Xiao Chen just wants to play with Xiao Qi.”

When Xiao Chen heard his sister lecturing him, he guiltily fiddled with his chubby little hands. Su Qing’s heart ached when she saw her brother like this. She softened her tone and coaxed her brother,

“Xiao Chen also needs to take a nap.”

“Okay, in the future, Xiao Chen will sleep with Xiao Qi.”

Xiao Chen wanted to grow taller and nodded at his sister, but he still wanted Xiao Qi to accompany him.

Xiao Qi looked at her Master pitifully,

“Master, save me. I want to return to the Master’s side.”

She didn’t want to be Little Master’s pillow day and night. Xiao Qi wanted to go back and take care of Master.

“For now, you have to stay here and protect them.”

Su Qing disagreed. She was always running around and worried about leaving her parents and Xiao Chen at home.

“Alright then!”

Xiao Qi’s voice was listless as she lowered her head unhappily.

“You can get Chen a new pet. So energetic that Chen won’t have time to look for you.”

Su Qing saw Xiao Qi’s pitiful look and gave it an idea. Xiao Qi’s eyes lit up, “Master is so awesome. Xiao Qi didn’t expect this!”

This flattery!

Su Qing put Xiao Qi on the ground and said to her brother seriously,

“Take Xiao Qi to sleep. Sister will check on her later.”

“Alright.”

Xiao Chen agreed readily. He looked at Xiao Qi sparklingly and extended his chubby little hand.

“Xiao Qi, let’s go and sleep.”

Xiao Qi turned her head back three times with every step and followed Xiao Chen. Su Qing hardened her heart and retracted her gaze. The little guy also knew how to use psychological attacks to soften her heart.

Su Qing still had important things to do. After entering the manor, she handed the two horses to the servants and instructed them,

“Keep an eye on him in the future. Don’t let the young Master run out of the residence.”

“Yes, I’ll be watching!”

Su Qing was always cold. The underlings feared her, so they hurriedly obeyed when they heard Su Qing’s order.

“Where’s Master and Madam?”

Su Qing asked the servant as she walked toward the back of the house.

“Old Master and Old Master Luan are in the study, and the two Madams are in the back residence.”

The servant hurriedly reported. Su Qing had already stopped walking towards the back of the house and turned around to walk towards the study.

She walked to the study door and heard her father and uncle chatting about her. She stopped and stood at the entrance to listen for a while.

“Hanxuan, if Su Qing is unwilling, don’t force her. This child has her ideas, so let nature take its course. I see that Young Master Ji is dignified, ambitious, and capable. He is not someone ordinary.”

Luan Qingshan tried to persuade the frowning Su Hanxuan. He felt that Su Qing had more ideas than Luan Hong. No one could make her compromise if she were unwilling.

“Sigh, yes, it’s a blessing that the child could be found, but if I break off the engagement, how can I face my benefactor?”

Su Hanxuan sighed. Although he understood that his brother-in-law was right, he still couldn’t untie the knot. He valued promises the most, and it was excruciating for him to break his promise now.

Su Qing did not continue listening. He knocked on the door three times and shouted, “Father, I’m back..”
