Pei Yunge thought of how Huo s.h.i.+du was extremely particular about etiquette. Hence, she turned to look at Ji Yiqing. “Brother Yiqing, thank you for sending me back today.”

“…You're welcome.”

Hearing this ‘Brother Yiqing', Ji Yiqing's body froze and he replied with a smile.

As for the man who had been staring at Ji Yiqing, his usually languid and cold eyes became deep.

“Then I'll go upstairs first. I'll treat you to a meal when I'm free.”

With that said, Pei Yunge went straight in. However, Huo s.h.i.+du remembered that she had said the same thing when he had met this child for the second time.

Thinking about it, this was probably Ji Yiqing's second time meeting this child.

“Master Du, does Yunge usually stay at your place?” Ji Yiqing was still looking at the living room and his tone was casual.

“Mm.”

Huo s.h.i.+du's fingertips were playing with the silver lighter casually. His handsome and dignified eyes looked languid and lazy.

“Why? She doesn't stay in the Qin family?”

Ji Yiqing seemed to be paying too much attention to Pei Yunge and muttered to himself, “This little girl isn't like what the rumors said at all. She really has the ability to make keep one's eyes glued on her…”

“Is Young Master Ji very interested in Yunyun?”

Huo s.h.i.+du looked up, his tone unreadable.

Hearing this, Ji Yiqing was about to nod when he felt Huo s.h.i.+du's cold eyes.

Ji Yiqing was confused.

What was going on?

Within moments.

Ji Yiqing laughed involuntarily. “What is Master Du worried about?”

“Ji Yiqing, you're not young anymore,” Huo s.h.i.+du said slowly.

Ji Yiqing understood what Huo s.h.i.+du meant. He forgot to clarify and said seriously, “…If you count, I'm only five or six years older than Yunge. Is the age difference very big?”

“So, you like Yunyun?”

Huo s.h.i.+du's eyes darkened gradually.

“…Master Du, don't look like you want to kill me.”

Ji Yiqing pressed between his eyebrows. “Yunge will get married sooner or later. Master Du, why are you so jealous?”

Hearing this, Huo s.h.i.+du stopped what he was doing with his fingertips. “What did you say?”

“I said, Yunge will…”

Before Ji Yiqing could finish speaking, he suddenly realized something.

Master Du…

Did he like this little girl??

“Are you…”

Seeing the man frown slightly, a thought flashed past Ji Yiqing's mind.

A trace of playfulness flashed past his eyes. “Master Du, I'm actually not bad either, right? My appearance and temper are not bad. I've never had a girlfriend and I don't have any bad habits.”

“Besides, if the Qin family can have a marriage alliance with the Ji family, the Qin family will not lose out either.”

“Ji Yiqing.”

Huo s.h.i.+du looked at him as an unknown emotion surged within him. There was an inexplicable danger in his eyes.

This was the first time in more than twenty years that Huo s.h.i.+du, who had always been calm and composed and handled matters with ease, could not stand someone so much. It was also the first time that he had the desire to fight and win.

Seeing this, Ji Yiqing was stunned for a moment before he said with a smile, “Master Du, do you want to see how scary you look now?”

He approached Huo s.h.i.+du and his smile deepened. “It's also my first time seeing you like this, Master Du. It's quite rare.”

Huo s.h.i.+du hid the dangerous look in his eyes and felt that his reaction was too unreasonable.

Soon.

Huo s.h.i.+du roughly knew why.

Because of the little girl who had just entered the house.

At this moment, all his unreasonable emotions came from a possessiveness that he had never shown in the past twenty years.

“The little girl Master Du likes doesn't look ordinary either. But Master Du, if you don't chase after her, I want to try to.”
