"Leilei is the most sensible one. But Xin'er hit you, so we can't just let it go. Otherwise, people will say that our Family Huo doesn't know how to treat guests well." Yao Huiqin looked at Shuxin coldly. "Xin'er, you're too impatient. You have to change that. I have scriptures upstairs that can calm your mind. You're punished to copy the scriptures 50 times. You're not allowed to sleep until you finish."
Yao Huiqin stood up. "Come, follow me upstairs."
"Mom …"
"Don't even think about pleading for your wife. It's useless. She has to listen to my orders since she entered the Family Huo," Yao Huiqin interrupted Huo Yanqing coldly.
Shuxin gently held Huo Yanqing's hand. "It's okay. It's my fault. I'm willing to accept the punishment."
Shuxin stood up and followed Yao Huiqin. Yao Huiqin stopped again and turned to Huo Yanqing. "Little Five, you and Xin'er will stay the night at the villa. You can go back to your room first. I'll arrange for someone to send Xin'er back after she finishes copying the scriptures."
Yao Huiqin then led Shuxin upstairs.
Fu Zhilei watched the two of them leave one after the other. She felt very upset. Yao Huiqin punished Shuxin. She should be happy. However, she remembered what Yao Huiqin said. "If word gets out, people will say that our Family Huo doesn't know how to treat guests well."
Shuxin was a member of the Family Huo. She was a guest?
Yao Huiqin also said to Yanqing, "Don't even think about pleading for your wife."
Wife? Wasn't she his girlfriend?
So in Yao Huiqin's heart, Shuxin was already a member of the Family Huo and Yanqing's wife?
Thinking of this, Fu Zhilei's eyes were filled with a dark, cold light. No, she would not allow such a thing to happen.
As long as she stayed here and behaved well, Yao Huiqin would definitely fall in love with her. She was the daughter of a prestigious military and political family. Only someone of her status was worthy of the noble and outstanding Huo Yanqing.
Huo Yanqing stood up and walked towards the door after hearing the footsteps disappear in the second-floor corridor.
Fu Zhilei hurriedly followed him and held onto Huo Yanqing's forearm. "Yanqing, let me take you there."
"No need." Huo Yanqing frowned slightly as he withdrew his arm. His voice was indifferent, revealing coldness and alienation.
Fu Zhilei looked at the man's cold and resolute back as he left. Her eyes were full of hurt, but in the blink of an eye, her eyes were filled with determination. Yanqing, you're mine!
…
Yao Huiqin saw Shuxin enter the room and hurriedly closed the door. Then, she turned around and took Shuxin's hand. She said with a smile, "Xin 'er, auntie didn't scare you, did she?"
Shuxin blinked and was a little dazed. "Auntie Yao, you …"
Yao Huiqin pulled Shuxin to sit down on the sofa. "Leilei is a guest. It would be unreasonable if I didn't give her an explanation for her injury. I also wouldn't be able to explain it to her father. I was just putting on an act just now. I just brought you breakfast and you were moved to tears. I knew you were a kind-hearted child. I watched Leilei grow up, so I know a little about her personality. If she hadn't done something outrageous, I believe you wouldn't have hit her. "
Shuxin's heart was instantly filled with warmth. Her eyes were a little hot as she held onto Yao Huiqin's hand. "Auntie Yao, thank you for trusting me so much. I …" Shuxin was so touched that she didn't know what to say. "I'm immature … I've made things difficult for you …"
"How are you immature?" Yao Huiqin smiled and glanced at Shuxin. "You're smart and sensible. You didn't make things difficult for me at all when you admitted your mistake. If you hadn't admitted your mistake just now, I really wouldn't know how to protect you. I didn't expect us to be so tacit."
