But Fubao likes flowers, and the wild flowers in the mountains are particularly beautiful, so she reached out and took it, "Thank you!"
"Fubao, why are you thanking him? This kid obviously has bad intentions!" Shen Zhile snorted and stared at the little boy with an expression that he had seen through everything. "Tell me, do you like my sister? Do you want to marry her home as your wife!"
"Yeah." The little boy admitted without hesitation, his eyes still firm.
Shen Zhile, "..." Can you be any thicker-skinned?
"No, Fubao is from our Shen family, don't even think about taking advantage of her. Otherwise, I'll beat you up!" Shen Zhile waved his weak fist at the little boy, but in front of Huo Jinxi, it had no deterrent effect at all.
If he used even half of his strength, he could easily knock the guy away.
But in front of Fubao, he had to restrain himself and be reserved.
"Kid, what's your name?" Old Man Shen couldn't help but ask. The more he looked at the child, the more familiar he felt. It seemed like he had seen him somewhere before.
The little boy's eyes were still fixed on Fu Bao, and he simply answered with three words, "Huo Jinxi."
Old man Shen, "..."
Shen Zhile, "......!"
Fubao, "......!!"
What did he just say, his name is Huo Jinxi?
Isn’t that... the little guy who said he would take her home when she was just born?
Isn't his family very rich? Five years ago, he was so cool, how come he has become like this now?
Fubao was surprised, and suddenly remembered what Mrs. Shen said, that something happened in the Huo family, and the men of the Huo family abandoned their wives and children after making money.
So Huo Jinxi and his mother were abandoned and had to leave the town and live in a nearby village?
Huo Jinxi had not originally planned to reveal his identity so quickly, and had always wanted to wait until Fubao was older, when his life might be better and he would be qualified to stand in front of her. However, he could not wait any longer.
After five years of not seeing him, she no longer recognized him. If a few more years passed, she would probably have completely forgotten him!
He sealed his power for her and followed her to the mortal world. If she forgot about him... he would never tolerate it.
"You...you are the one who sent money to our family back then?" Shen Zhile obviously remembered this name. He was very envious at first, the Huo family was so rich, but now...
Huo Jinxi seemed not to have heard what he said. He said to Old Man Shen calmly, "Grandpa, I'm hungry. Can I go to your house for dinner?"
Shen Zhile was depressed for a while. He said, “That’s my grandpa, not your grandpa. Don’t call him that!”
Old Man Shen also heard about the Huo family's misfortune. He felt sorry for the child from the bottom of his heart. He lost his father at a young age and now lives with his mother. It must not be easy for an orphan and a widow.
Seeing his innocent face, I couldn't bear to refuse him, so I agreed immediately, "Okay, kid, come back with us to eat!"
"Thank you, Grandpa."
Old Man Shen thought that this child was really sensible. However, from an angle that he couldn't see, Huo Jinxi's mouth curled up in a triumphant smile.
When they were going down the mountain, he naturally reached out and held Fubao's hand. His hand just wrapped her in his palm and held her tightly.
Fubao felt inexplicably warm in his heart and his heart skipped two beats.
What's going on? He is just an eight-year-old child. It is normal for children to hold hands. Why would I react like this?
