Seeing Shi Xi being taken away by Hua Xuanhe, everyone had different expressions.

Especially Liao Chujing.

How could she not see that Hua Xuanhe was deliberately protecting Shi Xi?

The guests scattered, still discussing what had just happened.

“It seems that President Hua likes her very much and has defended her time and time again.”

“Otherwise, why would he bring her to the banquet?”

“I’ve never heard of any interactions between these two people. Moreover, wasn’t that person brought in by Ao Fengyang?”

“Just be careful. Fortunately, I didn’t say anything just now.”

Liao Chujing clenched her fists.

She had only wanted to embarrass Shi Xi.

Now it seemed that…

She had to finish Shi Xi off completely.

The position of the Hua family’s Eldest Young Mistress could only be hers!

A cold glint flashed across Liao Chujing’s eyes.

Shi Xi followed Hua Xuanhe to the backyard.

“What conflict do you have with Liao Chujing?” asked Hua Xuanhe.

“I’m probably too beautiful, making her jealous of my beauty.” Shi Xi sighed.

Hua Xuanhe: …He shouldn’t have asked this question.

Zhu Lin, who was beside him, could not help but ask, “Then where is Liao Chujing’s bracelet? I thought it was really in the bag. I was shocked.”

Shi Xi glanced at Hua Xuanhe.

Hua Xuanhe took out a bracelet from his pocket.

It was Liao Chujing’s bracelet.

Zhu Lin was dumbfounded.

“When he went to look through the bag, he hid the bracelet in his palm, so when Liao Chujing looked at the bag again, there was no bracelet inside,” Shi Xi explained.

“You can even see this.” Hua Xuanhe handed the bracelet to Shi Xi and asked, “How do you want to deal with it?”

“If a guest came to attend a banquet and lost something, of course, we have to find it and send it back.” Shi Xi’s eyes curved as she smiled slyly.

Hua Xuanhe began to worry for Liao Chujing.

“By the way, when you see Grandpa later, just call him Grandpa like me,” Hua Xuanhe warned.

Shouldn’t she be calling him Grandfather (father’s side)?

Shi Xi’s eyes were filled with confusion.

“Back then, Grandpa was reluctant to marry my aunt off,” Hua Xuanhe explained. “So, he decided to take in a son-in-law.”

Shi Xi nodded. “Alright, I understand.”

When she went up the stairs to the second floor from the backyard, Shi Xi saw Grandpa Hua, whom she had not seen for a long time.

Grandpa Hua blew at his beard and said angrily, “A bunch of old foxes! My granddaughter is not back yet! They started to think about it! Shameless!”

“Ahem, Grandpa, Xi Xi is here,” Hua Xuanhe said.

“Xi Xi, you’re here.” Grandpa Hua’s expression changed instantly, and he put on a benevolent expression. “Xi Xi is so beautiful. Come here.”

Shi Xi walked forward. “Hello, Grandpa.”

“Good, good, good. Good girl!” Grandpa Hua beamed and handed Shi Xi an envelope. “This is your pocket money. If you don’t have enough money to spend in the future, look for me.”

“This…” Shi Xi hesitated and glanced at Hua Xuanhe.

Aiya, 1 think I want it!

But should she pretend to decline?

“Take it,” Hua Xuanhe said. “Those who are still in school have pocket money.”

Shi Xi thought to herself that she already had a job.

However, she agreed that she was still in school.

“Thank you, Grandpa.” Shi Xi took the envelope.

Inside was a bank card.

She just didn’t know how much money there would be.

“Grandpa will introduce you to a few elders later. Don’t be nervous.” Grandpa

Hua was extremely tolerant of his juniors.

He held a banquet to formally introduce Shi Xi.

He then introduced Shi Xi to his old friend.

It showed how much he valued Shi Xi.

This way, the others would understand:

Shi Xi was the true little princess of the Hua family!
