It was near dusk when Madam Fu returned from next door.
As soon as she saw Ye Li, she smiled and stuffed the card in her hand into her hand. As they walked, Madam Fu kept muttering, "I knew it! I always lose, but today the sun rose in the west and I won so much. It turns out it's Little Pear who's here!"
"Since Little Pear brought good luck to Grandma, then this money is for Little Pear as pocket money!"
"But Grandmother, haven't you already given away so much?"
"Regardless of the past, we won today!"
"..."
Ye Li was both amused and exasperated. Beside her, Fu Yanci pinched Ye Li's ear, saying, "Just take it if Grandmother gives it to you!"
"Thank you, Grandma! I'll come back often in the future and help you win lots of money."
"That would be wonderful!"
The three of them walked towards the restaurant laughing. As they lifted the curtain, they saw Xiao Bao sitting properly at the table.
Madam Fu paused, then looked at Ye Li with a look of satisfaction.
Ever since we brought him back to the old house, Xiao Bao has been eating, sleeping, and playing in that little courtyard.
Not to mention holidays, even when Fu Yanci came, he would just eat and drink in the courtyard.
This is the first time I've seen him at a restaurant.
Upon seeing Madam Fu, Xiao Bao jumped down from the dining chair and stood obediently beside it.
Even without saying a word, you could see the meaning in his eyes: Great-grandmother!
"Good boy..."
Madam Fu smiled and stepped forward, patted Xiao Bao's head, and sat down next to him without even taking the seat of honor.
The four of them enjoyed a harmonious and lively dinner together.
Upon hearing Fu Yanci say that he wanted to take Xiaobao to Lishan Mansion to stay for a while, Old Madam Fu readily agreed.
Turning back, she saw Xiao Bao looking at Ye Li with excited eyes, looking overjoyed.
Take a look at Fu Yanci and Ye Li.
Let's take a look at Xiaobao.
Madam Fu sighed inwardly, "What a pity."
After accompanying Madam Fu for some digestive tea and taking a walk in the courtyard, it was nearly nine o'clock when the old lady prepared to go to bed. Fu Yanci then led Ye Li and Xiao Bao away.
As the Maybach drove toward Lishan Mansion, the car became unusually lively.
The girl's chattering voice.
Xiao Bao's giggles.
Fu Yanci's already cheerful mood became even better.
But not long after returning to Lishan Mansion, Fu Yanci could no longer smile.
"Fu Yanci, Brother Mu says he's afraid of the dark, I'll stay with him tonight!"
Even through the door, Fu Yanci could hear the girl's cheerful mood in her voice. He pressed the doorknob, which was locked from the inside, and said helplessly, "Ali, open the door first."
"Don't open it!"
The girl refused decisively, "Fu Yanci, it's very late, you should go to sleep. Don't you have to get up early for the company tomorrow?"
"Ah Li, open the door, I have something to tell you!"
"Speak, I can hear you!"
“…Fu Muzhi, I’ll count to three, then you open the door! Otherwise…3…2…”
“Brother Mu…”
The screams accompanied the sound of the door opening. Fu Yanci watched helplessly as the girl went from being fearless to panicked, and then looked at Xiaobao with resentment. His eyes were full of smiles.
"Brother Mu, you traitor!"
Even after Fu Yanci yanked her off the carpet, Ye Li was still arguing with Xiao Bao, "You wait, tomorrow I'll make you pay a terrible, absolutely terrible price for betraying your teammates tonight!"
Xiao Bao's eyes crinkled with laughter, his face full of anticipation.
Ye Li: !!!
The door opened and closed again. Fu Yanci lowered his head to kiss Ye Li, "Do you know why I was able to succeed?"
"Why?"
“Xiao Bao isn’t afraid of the dark, but… he’s afraid of being alone in a room with someone, especially at night.”
Ye Li: ...
