Chapter 117: Does It Seem Like Older Brother Is Treating You Well Because of Someone Else?

Pei Yunge was not that stupid. She knew how much Huo Shidu took care of her.

Including that time at the Qin family old manor.

Pei Yunge also knew that there was a high chance that Huo Shidu stayed to talk alone because of her.

“Why do you ask?”

Huo Shidu’s gaze was fixated on her.

“Older Brother seems to have a good relationship with Qin Yu.” Pei Yunge said with a smile.

Hearing this, those who did not know would think that Huo Shidu was her real brother.

However…

Huo Shidu could hear the distance in Pei Yunge’s voice.

Although this little fellow looked lawless, she was actually very sensitive.

Indeed, Pei Yunge felt that she had given Huo Shidu a lot of trouble. If it was because of Qin Yu, then Huo Shidu might be putting up with her.

However, in the next moment, Pei Yunge dismissed this thought.

Huo Shidu reached out lazily, his cold fingers brushing against a stain under her chin as he spoke in a casual tone.

“I don’t want to bring all the Qin children home either.”

Pei Yunge froze and looked up at him.

“Yunyun, have some conscience.”

Huo Shidu laughed hoarsely, his eyes dark to the point where his gaze became ambiguous. Even the light seemed to have disappeared, making him look gentle and lustful. “Does it seem like Older Brother is treating you well because of someone else?”

…

In Room 307.

Pei Yunge pushed the door open and entered. The old lady couldn’t help but stand up and called softly, “Ge’er, are you alright?”

“I’m fine.”

With that said, Pei Yunge saw Huo Shidu follow in. She said to the old lady, “Grandma, he’s Huo Shidu. He’s… Second Brother’s friend.”

Hearing this, the old lady’s eyebrows relaxed immediately.

So he was Second Young Master Qin’s friend. That should be fine.

“Thank you, Mr Huo, for helping Ge’er out today,” the old lady thanked him.

“Director Lin, you’re too polite.”

After Huo Shidu was done speaking, he did not disturb Pei Yunge and the old lady from catching up. He only chatted with them occasionally.

Seeing this, Assistant Ceng, who was beside them, was in disbelief.

If Master Du could use half of his patience here on Little Young Master, Little Young Master wouldn’t cry all day long and say that he didn’t want to see Older Brother anymore.

“Director Lin, if you don’t have a good place to stay now, how about I arrange it for you?”

What Huo Shidu had said was what Pei Yunge wanted to ask too.

“Don’t trouble yourself, Mr Huo. I have a place to stay.”

Overwhelmed by the unexpected favor, the old lady immediately smiled and shook her head. The more she looked at Huo Shidu, the more satisfied she was.

From time to time, he would even glance meaningfully at Pei Yunge.

Pei Yunge did not notice this gaze and was still thinking of something else.

“Grandma, is it because of Lin Jiannan?” Pei Yunge suddenly asked.

The old lady had an only son called Lin Jiannan. He was one who bullied the weak and feared the strong, and liked to take advantage of others.

Previously, the old lady had probably sent Pei Yunge away because she was afraid that Lin Jiannan would do something embarrassing such as asking the Qin family for a huge sum of child support fees.

The old lady felt a little guilty and uneasy as she said, “Jiannan got a wife this year and they are preparing to have a child. I have to help Jiannan take care of his wife.”

“Once the child is born, Jiannan’s wife still has to do confinement. I’ll also…”

“Grandma, is it his wife or yours?”

Pei Yunge’s eyelids twitched and she suddenly laughed.

“Grandma has let your Uncle Jiannan down.” The old lady lowered her head unconsciously.

If she hadn’t chosen to donate all her assets, leave the laboratory, and insisted on opening an orphanage, perhaps Jiannan wouldn’t have been idling around all day and become a hooligan.
