Chapter 114 My sister-in-law is beautiful and kind-hearted
Looking at the two people embracing tightly, He Jing's cold expression gradually softened and was replaced by a touch of tenderness.
He stepped forward, patted He Wuyang's head, wiped away the tears on her face, and said softly, "Alright, Wuyang, let's go home. Your big brother will carry you home today."
These words seemed to have a magical power. Upon hearing them, the little girl instantly pulled away from Ye Xiaoxiao's embrace, her voice trembling with a hint of tears, and asked with a mixture of disbelief and doubt, "Really?"
He Jing and Ye Xiaoxiao exchanged a glance, then turned their attention to the little girl's face, which was red from crying: "Of course it's true."
He Wuyang immediately beamed with joy. His older brother hadn't carried him on his back in ages, hehehehe.
Suddenly remembering something, the little girl added, "Oh right, I forgot to introduce you. This is Lu Shi'an. Thanks to him today, we were able to escape the clutches of that bad guy. Also, thanks to Sister Yun'er, she also saved our lives."
Ye Xiaoxiao and He Jing both looked over. They naturally recognized Zhao Yun'er. The little boy beside her had bright eyes. Although he was dirty, his temperament was still evident.
"Thank you for your courage," Ye Xiaoxiao said gratefully as she walked over. "You're a remarkable man!"
Lu Shi'an blushed slightly at the praise, feeling a little embarrassed. He knew he was very capable, but this was the first time he had ever been praised in front of so many people.
Hehehe, feels good.
"You're welcome, hello sister-in-law."
He thought to himself, if He Wuyang calls her sister-in-law, then he should call her sister-in-law too, is that alright?
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a piercing gaze fixed on him.
Lu Shi'an followed the gaze and saw He Wuyang's older brother looking at him with an indescribable look that made him a little scared.
Did he say something wrong?
no?
"Lu Shi'an, where do you live? We'll take you home; your family must be worried sick," Ye Xiaoxiao kindly reminded him.
The moment the topic of going home came up, Lu Shi'an's bright eyes instantly dimmed. He didn't want to go back. He had finally managed to escape; he didn't want to go back!
Hmph! They probably haven't even realized they're missing!
"I...I have no home anymore." Lu Shi'an murmured softly, his head hanging down, looking pitiful and abandoned, which was very heartbreaking.
Ye Xiaoxiao glanced at him but didn't intend to expose the child. Perhaps he had his own reasons.
Upon hearing Lu Shi'an's words, He Wuyang instantly felt sorry for him, so he grabbed his older brother's hand, shook it, and looked up at He Jing with pleading eyes.
"Big brother, he's so pitiful! Let's take him home, okay?"
"OK?"
"Come on, he saved your own sister!"
He Jing: ...This is not a good idea.
He looked at Ye Xiaoxiao, who nodded slightly in agreement.
"Never mind," He Jing sighed softly.
Since we've already taken in a little black cat, taking in another one won't make a difference; it'll just mean adding another pair of chopsticks. Most importantly, this kid saved Ah Yang, and we can't be ungrateful.
He Jing still spoke up, saying, "Your sister-in-law should make the decision. Your elder brother can't."
“We haven’t asked the child himself yet,” Ye Xiaoxiao said, looking at Lu Shi’an. “Would you like to stay at my house temporarily?”
Lu Shi'an didn't speak, but nodded solemnly and gratefully.
He was absolutely willing; his sister-in-law was truly beautiful and kind-hearted.
Ye Xiaoxiao's lips twitched: ......
This child is probably quite clever.
He Jing walked up to Zhao Yun'er and bowed solemnly: "Miss Yun'er, I, He Jing, will never forget your life-saving grace. If you ever need my help in the future, please feel free to ask."
Ye Xiaoxiao pushed him away. Judging from his appearance, anyone who didn't know better would think he was there to seek revenge.
"Alright, alright! Girls should naturally behave like girls," she said, grabbing Zhao Yun'er's hand with a bright, radiant smile. "Miss Yun'er, I'll treat you to something delicious another day."
There's no problem that can't be solved with a meal. If there is, then just eat more meals.
The groups of people dispersed in different directions. Ye Xiaoxiao and her companions were going back to Wuji Hall first to inform Qian Ruoyun and her brother.
......
"Xiao Xiao!"
Before they even returned to Wuji Hall, Qian Ruoyun came running over anxiously, followed closely by her maid Xi'er, and then by the chubby Qian Jinyun.
"Is little sister Ayang alright?" She looked the little girl up and down, and only felt relieved when she saw that she was unharmed.
"Ruoyun, thank you for helping me."
"Good sisters, no need for thanks..." Qian Ruoyun only then noticed that there was another person following behind them. She suddenly stopped speaking and stammered, "Xiao Xiao, who is this?"
Ye Xiaoxiao introduced the two of them, and He Jing nodded slightly as a greeting.
Qian Ruoyun suddenly felt a pang of sadness, a dull, sour feeling in her heart. Her mind went blank.
Who would have thought that the person I met recently, the man of my dreams, would turn out to be my best friend's husband?
She suppressed her discomfort and smiled at Ye Xiaoxiao, saying, "It's good that Ayang is back safe and sound. Xiaoxiao, I'm a little tired, I'll head back now. Let's get together another day."
After saying that, she turned and left, holding her breath to maintain her inner peace, but her eyes clearly shimmered with a hint of tears.
