As soon as his voice fell, the cell phone on the table rang. Pei Yunge glanced at the name on the display and a trace of impatience flashed past her eyes.

Looking up, her dark pupils were clear. “Older Brother, I’m sorry. I have something on. Next time if I have the chance, I’ll treat you to a meal.”

Then Pei Yunge picked up her phone and walked out quickly.

The man raised his eyebrows. He could see that the phone call just now was to rush Pei Yunge.

…

Huo Shidu returned to his car and the little fellow beside him did not dare to speak.

“You have nothing to say?”

Huo Shidu wanted to take out his cigarette box, but then stopped and stuffed it back.

Initially, the little fellow looked timid, but then seemed to have thought of something as his eyes lit up. He moved to Huo Shidu’s side and perked up. “Brother, do you think that Sister is good looking?”

Hearing this, Huo Shidu glanced at him before he leaned back lazily. “Does it have anything to do with you if she is good looking?”

“If Brother can bring Sister home, then I’ll be able to see her forever.”

Huo Shidu sneered. “Stop dreaming.”

This child did not know what abducting girls was.

“But Brother doesn’t have any girlfriend anyway!”

The little fellow blinked his big black eyes. “Brother, I really like that Sister.”

He also liked Sister’s dog…The little fellow added in his heart.

The man’s eyes were calm and firm as he tapped his slender fingers listlessly on the armrest.

“It’s already a pain with a troublesome one at home.”

These words made the little fellow’s mouth snap shut.

There were 360 days in a year where his brother’s gaze on him looked like he wanted to throw him away.

…

In the restaurant.

“Third Brother, your call still hasn’t gotten through? I’ve asked Uncle Wang and Pei Yunge is already nearby.” It wasn’t clear whether Qin Youjiao was saying it intentionally or not.

The first reaction Qin Lang had when he heard this was that Pei Yunge had an accident.

He stood up and wanted to look for her!

It was at that moment that Pei Yunge appeared in front of him.

“Ge’er, you’re here.”

Qin Lang looked at Pei Yunge. Seeing that she was fine, he let out a sigh of relief.

It was good that she was all right.

“Don’t come if you don’t want to. There’s no need to ignore me and Third Brother.”

Qin Youjiao wanted to say something more, but she subconsciously shut her mouth when she felt Qin Lang’s cold gaze on her.

“Ge’er, didn’t you want to study at Hengde High School before? I’ve already made arrangements, you can go to school in two days.”

What?! Qin Lang’s words made Qin Youjiao lose her temper.

“Third Brother, how can she be in the same school as me?!”

What was she going to do if someone found out that Pei Yunge was the real daughter of the Qin family?!

Wouldn’t she be ridiculed in school??!

“Why can’t Ge’er be in the same school as you?”

Qin Lang’s eyes turned cold and this made Qin Youjiao feel bitter and aggrieved in her heart. All day, Third Brother’s attitude towards her was not good. He even treated Pei Yunge like she was some sort of priceless treasure!

“I’m fine with it. It’s up to you,” Pei Yunge replied calmly.

In her previous life, Pei Yunge’s parents were divorced. Before she was 18 years old, she stayed with her mother, a famous scientist and finished a special class for the gifted young in university at the age of 12. She only returned to her father’s company and became the heir of the corporation after her mother passed away.

High school… Pei Yunge only had a vague conception about high school because she had only studied there for three months.

“You’re fine with it?”

Qin Youjiao found it funny and her tone was scornful. “Are you sure you can keep up?”

This was the first time Pei Yunge had heard someone ask her this and her eyes fell on Qin Youjiao for some time.

After a period of silence, she licked her red lips.

“I’ll try?”
