The next morning, Xueqiu woke Chi Beibei up on time: "Host, get up! You're going to be late for school."
Chi Beibei was not annoyed. He rubbed his eyes, got up and put on his clothes.
"You're such a little foodie." She smiled at Snowball jokingly, "I think you're thinking about the passion fruit mousse in the refrigerator, right?"
Snowball chuckled and said, "I'm just worried that the host won't be able to make it in time."
After a simple wash, Chi Beibei entered the space and took out the passion fruit mousse, cut it into pieces and garnished it with strawberries, leaving some for breakfast and packing the rest into two boxes, ready to give to Gu Yanchuan and Sheng Yuanyuan.
She didn't go out yesterday. Giving Aunt Lin dessert for no reason might make her suspicious, so she didn't prepare any for Aunt Lin this time.
After enjoying a delicious breakfast, Chi Beibei returned to his room, put on his schoolbag and headed for school.
Sheng Yuanyuan had already eaten a lot of desserts yesterday, but she was still very happy about Chi Beibei feeding her.
"It's sour and sweet, not greasy at all." Sheng Yuanyuan smiled, "Sure enough, the snacks made by mom and Beibei are the best."
Chi Beibei moved his fingers and almost pinched Yuanyuan's chubby baby fat again.
"As long as you like it."
Sheng Yuanyuan, unaware that she had almost fallen into the devil's clutches, swallowed the last bite of mousse and licked the cream at the corner of her mouth with some reluctance.
Chi Beibei coughed lightly and asked, "Yuanyuan, do you know Mr. Xiao?"
"I know, the person in charge of the Xiao family." Sheng Yuanyuan stared at Chi Beibei with her dark eyes without blinking, "Why did you suddenly mention him?"
"After you left yesterday, he came to the Chi family. I saw that everyone seemed a little afraid of him."
"Mr. Xiao looks scary." Sheng Yuanyuan poked the empty box with a fork, "But he's actually quite pitiful. It's all because of the fight for property among the collateral family that he's become like this."
"Were his legs also crippled by someone from the sideline?"
"Yes." Sheng Yuanyuan put down her fork, a trace of grief and fear flashed across her face, "Six years ago, his parents, brother, sister-in-law, and nephew were murdered by collateral relatives. Mr. Xiao escaped death but became disabled."
"So many people died." Chi Beibei suddenly felt so depressed that she could hardly breathe.
She only knew that Xiao Ruoqin's brother was sent to prison on suspicion of murder, but she didn't know that the murder plan of the Xiao family's side branch had successfully killed all of Xiao Erye's closest relatives.
"Those people are so bad." Sheng Yuanyuan was indignant. "We are obviously relatives, but they can do anything terrible for money."
tsxsw.la
"The feuds among the big families are really scary." Chi Beibei said in a low voice, "The more people there are, the more trouble there will be."
Sheng Yuanyuan sighed sadly: "It's not good to have too few people. My sister is not here, and my parents don't have any relatives. There are only three of us in our family."
"Yeah." Chi Beibei looked regretful.
No wonder after Sheng Yuanyuan and her parents passed away, Sheng Pharmaceutical was acquired by the Chi family who were preparing to get involved in new industries. It turned out that apart from them, the Sheng family didn't even have anyone who could take charge.
If Sheng Yuanyuan's sister were still alive, perhaps the Sheng couple would not have left so easily.
Snowball's words about Mr. Xiao possibly liking her flashed through Chi Beibei's mind, and she subconsciously asked, "Doesn't Mr. Xiao have a girlfriend?"
Sheng Yuanyuan shook her head: "Second Master Xiao is 28 years old, but there has never been a girl around him. People are saying that he likes men, and it is very likely that it is Ah Bin. Some people also say that he is not good enough."
"Do you like Abin?" Chi Beibei widened his eyes.
"It's his senior assistant." Sheng Yuanyuan's eyes sparkled. "They are inseparable all day long. Once Mr. Xiao gives Abin a look, he knows what he wants. Some people in the circle are secretly supporting their couple."
Chi Beibei had some impression of the special assistant beside Xiao Erye. She thought about it and found that Xiao Erye could really communicate with Abin only by using eye contact and gestures. They really had a tacit understanding.
"Oh my God." Xueqiu, who had been listening for a long time, held his face with his hands, his eyes full of tears, "What kind of tragic love is this?"
"Now you believe that Mr. Xiao doesn't like me, right?"
Snowball wiped his tears and said, "I believe it."
"If that's really the case." Chi Beibei sighed to Sheng Yuanyuan, "Perhaps Ah Bin is Mr. Xiao's salvation."
Gu Yanchuan arrived at the classroom without knowing when. He saw the little girl and Sheng Yuanyuan chatting happily. When he walked up to them, he just happened to hear the second half of the little girl's sentence.
An inexplicable sense of crisis surged in his heart. He sat down next to Chi Beibei and asked, "What is Mr. Xiao? What is salvation?"
"Yanchuan, you're here." Chi Beibei was thinking about the grievance that Gu Yanchuan suffered yesterday, and stuffed his passion fruit mousse into his hand, "This is for you."
"I hope you'll feel better after eating it."
Chi Beibei's caring words made Gu Yanchuan's eyes red. He touched the passion fruit mousse box and opened it. As soon as he touched the small fork, he thought of the name Chi Beibei mentioned just now.
He placed the passion fruit mousse on the table and asked, "Were you talking about Master Xiao?"
"Ah? Nothing." There was no evidence that Mr. Xiao might like Abin, so it was better not to talk about it anymore. Chi Beibei looked away awkwardly.
From Gu Yanchuan's perspective, Chi Beibei was avoiding him out of guilt and didn't dare to look him in the eye.
"Why did you mention Mr. Xiao? When did you first meet?" Gu Yanchuan was anxious. He remembered that Sheng Yuanyuan was very excited about the couple just now. Could it be that the little girl has another dog behind his back? No, he wouldn't allow it. The little girl could only be his.
Gu Yanchuan's eyes gradually became dangerous, and he even had a thought of locking up the little girl, but he soon thought of the current situation of the old man and the woman.
Before Gu Yanchuan could dismiss this idea, Snowball frantically yelled in Chi Beibei's mind: "Host, this is bad, the villain is showing signs of turning evil!"
"Yanchuan, what's wrong with you?" Chi Beibei hurriedly grabbed Gu Yanchuan's hand, "Calm down, don't be angry."
The little girl touched his hand again, but Gu Yanchuan felt numb in his heart, and his eyes seemed to be misty: "Will you be with Master Xiao?"
"Oh my god! Gu Yanchuan, what are you thinking about?" Chi Beibei never thought that he would want to turn evil because of Master Xiao. "How could it be possible for Master Xiao and I to be together?"
"He came to the banquet yesterday and added me on WeChat. I was just curious and asked Yuanyuan a few questions today."
"Added WeChat?" Gu Yanchuan immediately grasped the key point.
Chi Beibei opened the WeChat chat interface: "It was just a few polite words."
Gu Yanchuan took a few glances and found that the girl's attitude towards Mr. Xiao was not warm at all, and could even be said to be a little cold, so he finally felt relieved.
He knew that the little girl liked him the most.
The little girl would also send him cute emoticons.
Chi Beibei put away her phone and asked him with a smile, "You're not angry anymore, are you?"
"Yeah." Gu Yanchuan nodded with a red face, picked up the small fork and tasted the passion fruit mousse made by the little girl for him.
