Late at night, by the sea.

Auntie Hong tidied up the house and called out to the boy by the sea. “Young Master, it’s time to eat.”

He Yanzhi was sitting on a rock by the sea. When he heard the call, he turned his head. “Got it.”

“Why are you coming home so late these past two days? Your grandmother is asking.” Auntie Hong took a coat for him. “Are you with that little girl from before?”

He Yanzhi nodded as he walked back. “I’m with her.”

“I’ve never seen you like this with a girl. Looks like you really like her,” Auntie Hong said with a smile. “Young Master, I know that all these years, you have been “misbehaving” outside, constantly creating the image that you were mingling in society when in fact, you just wanted to prevent your second uncle from coming back to fight for your parents’ inheritance. Does that little girl know about these things?”

He Yanzhi shook his head. “There’s no need to drag innocent people into my business.”

It was only in front of his family that He Yanzhi could take off his armor and discard his fierce look. He appeared extremely gentle.

“That child... is from a rich family, right?” Aunt Hong asked tentatively.

“Yes, she has bodyguards.” This was also the reason why He Yanzhi would repeatedly indulge himself around her.

Because even if someone dared to touch him, no one would dare to touch Little Qi.

“Take her home to play some other day?”

“Let’s see what she wants to do,” He Yanzhi said indifferently. Obviously, he and Little Qi didn’t express anything seriously toward each other because he had concerns. But in his heart, he truly treated Little Qi as his little girlfriend.

“Sigh, look at your pitiful self. You always have to be careful in protecting the things you like.”

“I’m used to it...” He Yanzhi’s expression was still very calm. Only when he thought of Little Qi’s panic in his arms did he smile.

A cute little wife, wasn’t she?

..

Late at night, Little Qi was doing her homework under the night light. Mu Qiqi was so shocked that when she got home, her jaw almost dropped.

“Didn’t we agree that my child doesn’t need to stay up all night to read?”

Little Qi immediately covered her homework and looked at Mu Qiqi with some resentment. “Mom, do you want me to be like you? Can’t even write a love letter?”

“Yo, who did you take a fancy to?” Mu Qiqi sat beside her daughter and secretly looked at her Chinese textbook. She found another set of handwriting other than her daughter’s terrible one.

“My exam’s just around the corner... Don’t disturb me.” Little Qi quickly covered her textbook.

“Look at you, trying to cover it up. You’re exactly the same as when I fell in love with your father. I know the feeling of a secret crush the best...”

Ugh...

Little Qi suddenly froze. Usually, she could cover up her worries in front of Mu Qiqi, but she forgot that her mother was also very smart.

The reason why Mu Qiqi did not care was because Master Xiao had intervened, but that did not mean that she did not know anything.

“If you really fall in love, I don’t object, but you can’t do things you shouldn’t do, understand?” Mu Qiqi hugged her daughter’s head and kissed it. “Don’t make me worry.”

Little Qi immediately softened. “Mom, I know what to do.”

Mu Qiqi nodded and got up from the sofa. Her tone was a little regretful. “But I really don’t believe that you’ll be able to write a shocking composition, not with my genes. Hahaha...”

Little Qi was speechless.

She couldn’t blame society for being unlucky. She could only blame her mother’s genes for being useless!
