Jiang Can was stunned.
She never expected Yin Shaoqing to make such a request.
But she didn't know how to answer him, after all, for Huo Zhixin now, this man was her whole world.
She couldn't bear to embarrass Huo Zhixin.
“Mr. Yin,” Jiang Can paused, then chuckled, “I wonder which paintings you like? I might as well give them to you. You can take them home and enjoy them at your leisure, then you won’t have to take pictures of them everywhere in other people’s homes, right?”
A shadow crossed Yin Shaoqing's eyes.
He slightly curled his lips, his face showing a somewhat complicated expression as he looked Jiang Can up and down.
Her words just now were spoken with a light touch, sounding friendly and polite, but the emphasis on the phrase "someone else's home" made it clear to anyone with a brain what she meant.
Yin Shaoqing looked up and met Jiang Can's eyes.
This woman was not as weak as he had imagined. Her large, dark eyes revealed determination and authority, and her aura was exactly the same as Huo Zhixing's.
He thought for a moment, put away his phone, and smiled, "No need, thank you Miss Jiang... These paintings must be what the young master likes. How could I, a servant, have the right to take things from my master's house?"
“Shaoqing…” Huo Zhixin walked to his side and gently took his hand.
Jiang Can could tell that Huo Zhixin was now completely devoted to him.
She couldn't help but worry.
Girls who fall in love are usually the easiest to deceive.
“Heh, Mr. Yin, you’re exaggerating,” Jiang Can said softly. “Actually, Zhixing is a very open-minded person. Besides, what era are we living in now? The Huo family and you only have an employer-employee relationship. You do the work, and the Huo family pays you. That’s all. There’s no such thing as a servant or a master!”
"I always said our family is lucky to have an employer like the Huo family!" Yin Shaoqing smiled, then looked at Huo Zhixin and gently tidied her messy bangs.
A hint of shyness appeared on the girl's face, her lips slightly upturned, and her eyes were full of happiness.
But Jiang Can still harbored a grudge.
Seeing Yin Shaoqing calmly put his phone back in his pocket only fueled her suspicions.
Is it proper etiquette to take photos all over someone's house on your first visit?
Even if he was a long-term worker in the Huo family and hadn't received much education, he should still know basic manners.
Furthermore, even the servants of a large family like the Huo family are well-trained, sometimes even better than the executives of many small and medium-sized enterprises.
Is Yin Shaoqing simply lacking in upbringing, or does he truly harbor ulterior motives?
"Sister Jiang Can, what are you thinking about?" Huo Zhixin's sweet voice pulled her back to reality.
At this moment, she and Yin Shaoqing were already sitting around the dining table, and Aunt Cen was serving the dishes one by one.
Huo Zhixin waved to her: "Sister, come quick! I'm starving!"
"Okay, coming right away."
Jiang Can composed herself, and the thought of her family's photos on Yin Shaoqing's phone made her feel uncomfortable.
We must think of a way...
"Miss Jiang, why don't you go and have something to eat too!" Aunt Cen walked up to her.
"I..." Jiang Can wanted to say that she wasn't hungry, but then she noticed the look that Aunt Cen was giving her.
She pondered for a moment, then suddenly realized what was happening.
She smiled at Aunt Cen, nodded slightly, and then walked towards the round table in the dining room.
"My dear friends, Aunt Cen's cooking is superb; you must try it today!"
"Mmm!" Huo Zhixin smiled brightly, staring at the food on the table like a little glutton. "I can tell how delicious it is just by the smell! Heh... Uncle Cen is really something, with such a wonderful Aunt Cen, why didn't he bring her home sooner?"
"It's not too late for us to know now!" Jiang Can chuckled. Just then, Aunt Cen was seen carrying a soup pot toward them.
"She's also an excellent soup maker," Jiang Can said.
"Miss Jiang is too kind to me!" Aunt Cen placed the soup pot on the placemat, very close to Yin Shaoqing. She glanced at him and continued with a smile, "Alright, now all the dishes are ready! Oh, by the way, I noticed you young people seem to like taking photos with your phones before eating! Is this a trend? Heh, Miss, won't you take one?"
"Yes, that's right!" Huo Zhixin immediately responded to the suggestion, "Aunt Cen's meal looks and smells delicious, of course we should take pictures!"
"Hey, Xiao Yin," Aunt Cen nudged Yin Shaoqing, "Don't make Miss do it herself, you take the picture for her!"
Yin Shaoqing's expression changed, and he suddenly looked up.
Aunt Cen was startled by the fleeting ferocity in his eyes and involuntarily took a step back.
However, that ferocity only lasted for a moment.
When she came to her senses, Yin Shaoqing had transformed back into the smiling young man.
"Sorry, my phone is lagging a bit..."
"Really?" Jiang Can smiled. "When you took the picture just now, it didn't seem to be lagging."
Yin Shaoqing paused for a moment, then slowly took out his phone.
However, at that moment he looked at Huo Zhixin, whose face was slightly embarrassed. "Let's forget it, let's eat first!"
"Don't forget about it!" Aunt Cen stepped forward. "Come on, you guys eat, I'll take pictures for you! Don't underestimate me just because I'm an old woman, I'm pretty trendy too!"
She tried to take Yin Shaoqing's phone, but she could clearly feel him holding onto it and refusing to give it to her.
He used a lot of force, and the veins on the back of his hand bulged out.
Aunt Cen sneered inwardly. Just as the two were locked in a stalemate, the old man suddenly let go!
He hadn't expected her to do this, and caught off guard, his phone fell into the pot of boiling soup. The splashed soup stained the tablecloth and gave Yin Shaoqing a jolt.
The atmosphere suddenly froze, becoming unusually quiet.
Jiang Can's heart pounded, and she exchanged a glance with Aunt Cen. She could tell that Yin Shaoqing was angry, but he still tried his best to suppress his anger and put on a relatively natural expression.
