Huo Jibai snorted coldly. "Using someone else's power to intimidate you."
"So what if I'm using someone else's power to intimidate me?" Shuxin said confidently. "Hurry up and call me Auntie. Otherwise, I'll complain to your Fifth Uncle when he comes back and let him punish you."
"You wish."
"Are you going to call me Auntie?" Shuxin grabbed Huo Jibai's short T-shirt with one hand and his arm with the other.
Huo Jibai would rather die than submit. "No. Don't think that I can't beat you. I'm letting you go. Hurry up and let me go."
"I'll let you go if you call me Auntie."
"I won't."
"I won't let you go if you don't."
"What are you doing?" Jian Xi's voice suddenly sounded.
Shuxin turned around and saw Jian Xi standing at the door. She didn't know why but her expression was very ugly. Was it because she bullied her son?
Shuxin let go of Huo Jibai and patted Huo Jibai's shoulder. She smiled and said to Jian Xi, "Sister-in-law, I'm just playing with him."
Jian Xi walked over and tidied up Huo Jibai's messy clothes. However, she said to Shuxin, "You're only two years older than Xiao Bai. It's better for you two to call each other by their names."
Shuxin blinked. She didn't dare to believe that Jian Xi said this. Regardless of age, she was Huo Yanqing's wife after all. Then, Huo Jibai should call her Auntie. Didn't they say that Jian Xi was the most polite? Could it be that she didn't have to be polite in front of her son?
Huo Jibai threw a proud look at Shuxin as if to say, "You have Fifth Uncle to support you while I have my mother to protect me. Hmph!"
Shuxin didn't comment on Jian Xi's words. She smiled and changed the topic. "Sister-in-law, are we going to the mall?"
Jian Xi had just moved in and wanted to buy some daily necessities. Thus, she agreed to go together.
On the way, Jian Xi drove while Shuxin sat in the front passenger seat. The two of them didn't speak and the car was very quiet. Shuxin always felt that after Ding Han became Jian Xi, she seemed to be more distant from her than before.
Could it be that he was still not used to it?
Shuxin took the initiative to change the topic. "Sister-in-law, what are you going to buy at the mall?"
"Daily necessities."
"Oh." Shuxin waited for a few seconds. Jian Xi didn't ask her what she wanted to buy, so she took the initiative to say, "Yanqing and I are going back to the Shu family tonight. I'm going to the mall to buy something for my father and grandmother."
Jian Xi replied after a few seconds.
The car fell silent again. After a while, Shuxin spoke up again. "Sister-in-law, will you be working at the Huo Group in the future?"
"Let's continue watching."
"You're so capable. With you and Yanqing, the Huo Group will definitely be better off."
Jian Xi replied with a "hmm" again.
She emphasized it indifferently. When Shuxin asked, Jian Xi would answer without saying anything more. Was Jian Xi always like this, or was she only like this in front of her?
Shuxin didn't know. After all, she and Jian Xi had only interacted a few times at work. When Jian Xi was in the Family Huo, she didn't know Huo Yanqing yet. Naturally, she didn't know what kind of person Jian Xi was.
However, the Jian Xi she knew from Yao Huiqin should be a gentle, filial, sensible, and polite woman. Why was she a little different?
Shuxin didn't speak on the way. The two of them were silent until they reached the mall. Shuxin said, "Sister-in-law, shall I accompany you to buy daily necessities first?"
"No need." Jian Xi refused. "We'll buy our own things and meet at the entrance in two hours."
"… Okay."
Shuxin first bought some health supplements for Cao Guifang. Then, she went to the men's clothing store to buy two sets of summer clothes for Shu Youkang. Seeing that it was still early, she went to the mother and baby store to shop.
When she arrived at the mother and baby store, Shuxin couldn't bear to leave when she saw the baby's things. Small hats, small shoes, everything was super small. They looked cute and cute.
