Chapter 47 - Still Too Young
Chapter 47: Chapter 47: Still Too Young
“Third Brother, have you been brainwashed too?”
‘What does he mean if he can beat her?’
‘Yan Jinyi’s arms and legs are so thin that even I can knock her down.’
‘Ah, he’s too young.’
Huo Zihang shook his head and said, “On the account that you are my sister, I advise you to hurry up and copy them. Get it over and done with as soon as you can.”
‘Even Third Brother is on Yan Jinyi’s side?’
‘How did that woman bewitch everyone!?’
Watching Huo Zihang leave, Huo Qingyuan was so infuriated that her heart began to ache. Finally unable to contain her anger, she dashed out of the study.
She picked up her cell phone, found Huo Xishen’s number, and dialed it.
All she heard was a beep.
‘His phone automatically shut down because it’s low on battery?’
‘F***!’
‘Yan Jinyi, I’m not done with you!’
Huo Qingyuan compromised in the end and cursed her heart out while copying the lines on a few pieces of fresh paper.
The first thing Huo Zihang did when he arrived in the living room was to ask where Yan Jinyi was.
“Second Young Mistress has gone to bed,” answered Zhang Guoquan, pointing to a cup of milk tea on the dining table that looked particularly delicious. He continued, “Second Young Mistress specially left that for you to try, Third Young Master.”
‘Milk tea?’
‘Doesn’t Yan Jinyi know that I hate such beverages that only women love?’
But…
He walked over to stick the straw into the cup before taking a large sip of the milk tea, after which its intense aroma filled his mouth.
Huo Zihang raised his eyebrows high and thought, ‘It turns out milk tea is so delicious!’
Grinning, he asked, “Uncle Zhang, did she specially buy this for me?”
“Uh, she didn’t mention it, but she told me to give it to you when you come home.”
‘It was bought especially for me then!’
Huo Zihang took another mouthful of it and asked, “Did Huo Qingyuan get any?”
“Huh?”
“Did Yan Jinyi buy milk tea for Huo Qingyuan?”
Suddenly realizing something, Zhang Guoquan shook his head and said, “No.”
Hah!
‘Serves Huo Qingyuan right for not getting any milk tea.’
Huo Qingyuan finished copying the lines at twelve midnight.
When Yan Jinyi woke up, she had just finished a dream.
In the dream, she returned to the Black Cloud Fortress and resumed her role as a bandit.
‘Ah… why does it feel so good to be followed everywhere I go by a bunch of underlings?’
While she was thinking about it, she saw Huo Zihang walking over from the staircase with a cup of milk tea.
“The milk tea tastes pretty good.”
“Yeah, it does.”
‘Getting three cups of milk tea for the price of two is a good deal too. Tan Sangsang and I had one each and unfortunately, we couldn’t finish the third one. Otherwise, why would Huo Zihang get such an advantage?’
“You got up specifically to open the door for Huo Qingyuan?”
“Yes.”
Huo Qingyuan had already heard their voices from outside. Standing by the door, she contemplated if she should get mad at Yan Jinyi or pretend to be aloof and nonchalant when she saw her later.
She heard her biological Third Brother’s voice again.
“Huo Qingyuan deserves to be taught a lesson. She’s got such a bad temper. You should lock her up for a day and teach her a hard lesson!”
Huo Qingyuan’s face was full of disbelief
‘Damn it Third Brother, why are you being such a traitor?’
‘Who always followed me around when we were children and asked me to protect you!?’
She felt that her heart had shattered.
Yan Jinyi was kind enough to open the door resolutely.
As soon as the door was pushed open, she saw Huo Qingyuan standing inside with a furious expression.
Looking at the messy papers strewn all over the table, she asked, “Are you done copying?”
“Are you blind? Can’t you see for yourself?”
Huo Qingyuan snapped hostilely.
Yan Jinyi’s eyebrows moved while Huo Zihang secretly gave her a thumbs-up.
‘Huo Qingyuan, it’s over for you. You can’t afford to provoke Yan Jinyi, this vicious, brutal, ferocious, and sharp-tongued woman.’
Surprisingly, Yan Jinyi did not make things difficult for Huo Qingyuan, and even walked in personally to check.
“Okay, but your handwriting is hideous. You can go eat now.”
