Shuxin gritted her teeth as she stared at Huo Jibai's back. "Stop right there!"
Huo Jibai ignored Shuxin and headed straight for the stairs.
Just then, Shuxin saw Huo Yanqing walk in through the door. She hurriedly ran over to grab his arm and said pitifully, "Yanqing, Huo Jibai bullied me."
Huo Jibai froze and stopped in his tracks. He turned around and glared at Shuxin before saying respectfully, "Fifth Uncle, I didn't."
"You obviously did. Yanqing, I think you were right the other day. Huo Jibai should call me Auntie."
Huo Yanqing raised his hand and patted Shuxin's head affectionately. He had just smoked a cigarette, so there was still a faint smell of tobacco between his fingers. "Why did you suddenly think it through? Didn't you say it was awkward the other day? "
"It was awkward, but I don't think we should mess up the seniority." Shuxin smiled as she looked at the calm man beside her. Her eyes were filled with adoration for him. "Don't I know my manners?"
"Yes, you do." Huo Yanqing played along and praised her.
Shuxin's heart instantly bloomed with joy. She then looked at Huo Jibai provocatively. "As a person, you should know your manners. Hurry up and call me Auntie."
Huo Jibai shot Shuxin an angry look.
Shuxin lifted her chin slightly and looked at Huo Jibai arrogantly. She used her eyes to tell him, 'Who asked you to mock me? I can't handle you, but your Fifth Uncle can!'
Huo Jibai shot her a murderous look. 'Don't look for my Fifth Uncle if you dare.'
Shuxin continued to stare at him. 'Why can't I look for my man? If you have the ability, find someone who can suppress your Fifth Uncle to be your backer.
In a short span of time, the two of them exchanged a few glances. In the end, Huo Jibai was completely defeated. The only person in the Family Huo who could suppress Huo Yanqing was Yao Huiqin, and Huo Jibai would never challenge Yao Huiqin!
Huo Yanqing's voice was low and deep, revealing the sternness of an elder to a junior. "Little White, call me Aunty."
Huo Jibai clenched his fists and looked at Shuxin with eyes full of anger. However, due to Huo Yanqing's authority, he did not dare to disobey. He moved his lips but could not open his mouth.
Yao Huiqin came out of the kitchen and asked, "What are you guys doing standing here?"
Huo Jibai's tense nerves relaxed. For the first time, he replied to Yao Huiqin, "Nothing." Then he said to Huo Yanqing, "Fifth Uncle, I'm going upstairs to read."
"Okay." Huo Yanqing responded. Huo Jibai then turned and went upstairs.
Yao Huiqin watched Huo Jibai's figure go upstairs and tears welled up in his eyes. It was not until the tall figure disappeared that he looked at Huo Yanqing emotionally. "Little Five, did you hear that? Little White talked to me. "
"Yeah, I heard it." Huo Yanqing looked comforted.
"I'm not dreaming, am I?" Yao Huiqin raised his hand and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. "It's been five years since his parents left. This is the first time he's spoken to me."
Shuxin knew that Huo Jibai and Yao Huiqin did not have a good relationship. However, she did not expect them to not speak to each other for five years. Seeing Yao Huiqin so emotional that she cried, Shuxin's heart felt warm. She could feel Yao Huiqin's longing for Huo Jibai.
Shuxin walked to Yao Huiqin's side and held her hand. She wanted to comfort her, but Shuxin knew nothing about Huo Jibai's parents. She did not know what to say. In the end, she could only say, "Shall I send you upstairs to rest?"
Shuxin sent Yao Huiqin back to her room and sat with Yao Huiqin for a while. When she saw that Yao Huiqin had calmed down, she got up and prepared to leave.
