Jun Shiyan had thought that she was trying to stop him, but when he heard the little woman’s angry and coquettish tone, he felt an inexplicable urge to laugh. His tone remained cold. “Miss Ling, if you’re hungry, go and eat.”
At the thought of Luo Xin bringing food up, Ling Sheng glared at him indignantly and said sourly, “Have you eaten? Is Luo Xin’s food delicious?”
He only knows how to eat, why doesn’t he explode to death from too much food!
Jun Shiyan felt a little strange, but looking at her jealous expression, the happiness that seeped out from the bottom of his heart made him feel abnormal. “So what if it’s delicious? And what if it’s not delicious? What does it have to do with Miss Ling?”
“Jun Shiyan, you’re amazing!” Ling Sheng glared at him coldly before turning to leave angrily.
“Is there still food in the company canteen?” Jun Shiyan asked the receptionist.
The receptionist was flattered and looked at him. She was so excited that her heart was pounding, but she still tried her best to maintain her composure. “Yes, it’s still lunchtime.”
Upon hearing his question, Ling Sheng continued to walk forward arrogantly. In her heart, she counted down to one, waiting for him to call out to her.
See? Actually, he still couldn’t bear to see her suffer.
From the corner of his eye, Jun Shiyan glanced at the little woman’s firm and proud back and said in a deep voice, “Then please bring me along for lunch!”
The receptionist hurriedly nodded and led the way. She clearly saw the CEO’s gaze move onto Miss Ling.
She was starting to believe Miss Ling’s words. The CEO’s att.i.tude towards her was different from the way he looked at her.
How should she put it? The CEO was usually high and mighty, standing in a position that ordinary people could not reach, but when he faced Miss Ling, he was less cold and more fiery.
Ling Sheng strode forward without turning back. She did not hear the man call her either. She is not thick-skinned enough to continue pestering him, as that would only let her be looked down upon anyway.
When they reached the elevator, the receptionist stole a glance at the handsome man standing beside her. She realized that he seemed to have thought of something, as he started smirking.
Surprisingly, when she reached the second floor, the man went down. He even thanked her and told her to go to work. She secretly took a look and saw the man walking towards the window.
Jun Shiyan stood in front of the window. His deep and dark gaze was so deep that it seemed bottomless. Soon, he found the person he wanted to see.
The little woman had just reached the sidewalk in front of the company. As she walked, she mumbled something angrily. As if venting her anger, she kicked a tree trunk by the side of the road. She must have used too much strength and was in pain, so she squatted down on the road in grievance.
She was so small and looked so pitiful and helpless. It made his heart ache slightly, he even had the urge to hug her.
At that moment, the Huo family was buzzing with activity.
Su Xiyin was very happy. She instructed the servants to clean the house and went to the kitchen to watch the servants cook while she came out to plant the flowers. She was extremely busy. “Hubby, do you think these flowers are suitable for this table?”
Huo Xiao looked at her. “What are you busy with? That b.a.s.t.a.r.d, Sixth Brother, why is he considered a guest?”
Su Xiyin glared at him. “What do you men know? The first impression we give this girl is very important when she comes home later. I’m warning you. When Ci’er comes back with his girlfriend later, you can’t embarra.s.s her.”
He had to change his bad temper. If his son brought his future daughter-in-law to visit, they had to give her a good impression.
Huo Xiao frowned and asked curiously, “Sixth Brother is so quiet. Where did he find a wife? I asked the Rong family’s boy but I didn’t hear that he was in a relationship.”
“When Ci’er doesn’t make friends, you scold him every day. Now that he’s bringing a girl here, you’re suspicious again. What do you want?” Su Xiyin sighed helplessly and pointed at him as she warned him. “I’m telling you, you’re not allowed to scold Ci’er or put on an angry face.”
His son was already so old. Every time he came home, he would either be beaten or scolded by him. She could not let his future daughter-in-law see that, or Ci’er would lose all his dignity.
“Why would I hit him? It’s all because that b.a.s.t.a.r.d doesn’t do anything at all. If he was fine, why would I hit him?” When Huo Xiao mentioned his son, he was furious. He blew his beard and glared at her. “I wonder which family’s daughter would like such a person.”
Su Xiyin did not know why he was so against her son. She glared at him angrily. “Be careful with your words. It won’t be good if your daughter-in-law hears you.”
“Nothing is confirmed yet, and you’re already referring to her as your daughter-in-law.” Huo Xiao had just finished speaking when he saw that his wife was about to get angry so he quickly changed his words. “I understand.”
“Old Madam.” Butler Liu’s daughter, Xiaofang, came in from the living room. She ran over excitedly and reported, “Sixth Master is back. He brought a beautiful lady and a child.”
Su Xiyin was very satisfied with the pretty lady, but she didn’t expect a child. “What child? How old?”
“About three or four years old. He’s very good-looking. The Sixth Master is carrying him.” Xiaofang was sent to the front to gather information.
Su Xiyin frowned slightly. She looked at Huo Xiao and asked, “Hubby, what happened? Ci’er couldn’t have found someone with a child, right?”
Although her requirements for her future daughter-in-law were not that strict, as long as Ci’er liked it, anything was fine. However, if it was a divorcee with a child, she still could not quite accept it.
“How would I know?” After Huo Xiao said that, he looked at his wife worriedly and consoled her. “It doesn’t matter whether there’s a child or not. It’s not like our family can’t afford to raise a child. It’s fine as long as the Sixth Brother likes her. Take a look at her first. If you don’t like her, we won’t agree to their relationship.”
Su Xiyin said, “What’s the use of disagreeing? It’s not like you don’t know Ci’er’s temper. Who can change what he has set his mind on?”
Forget it. If she had a child, then so be it. As long as her son liked her and wanted to get married, and the lady had a good character, she would have no objections.
Upon hearing from Xiaofang that they had arrived, Su Xiyin ran to the living room’s door to take a look. From afar, she saw a family of three walking over. She could not see clearly due to the distance and only recognized her son.
Huo Xiao narrowed his eyes and asked her, “Why do I feel that the boy Ci’er is carrying looks a little like the one that came to our house two days ago? It’s Third Master Jun’s son, the one called Xiaoqi.”
