Chapter 118 – Little Liu Huo's Heart (1)

Just as Liu Huo was prepared to step forward, he abruptly halted in his tracks.

Behind Ji Fengyan, aside from Ling He and the others' familiar faces, there was an additional elegant and unfamiliar face. That person was smiling while following behind her, seeming to be talking about something with her. Ji Fengyan only smiled and nodded, her curved eyes appearing rather pretty in the process.

Only, that smile made Liu Huo's heart feel a little bit different.

When Ji Fengyan's gaze swept over Liu Huo's figure out of the corner of her eye, she felt a little bit curious. After all, it was quite difficult to see this little fellow anywhere else besides the back courtyard!

”Little Liu Huo, you-” Right as Ji Fengyan was preparing to tease Liu Huo a bit, he abruptly placed Bai Ze who was in his arms down and wordlessly left before she could finish.

Ji Fengyan halted, her raised arm stiffened in the air as she looked at Bai Ze idiotically standing there.

”Was that person my lady's younger brother?” Gong Zhengyu had also had a ”fleeting glance” of that beautiful teenager.

Ji Fengyan shook her head and asked in a serious tone, ”Young Master Gong, do you know that there's a saying?”

”I'm willing to learn about it.” Gong Zhengyu said amiably.

Her lips curled in a devilish smile, ”Beloved lover of the golden house.”

Even for one as composed as Gong Zhengyu, when he heard the words that Ji Fengyan said, he was completely stunned. Looking at Ji Fengyan who's height didn't even reach his chest in astonishment, he was… unable to think properly for a time.

”Young Master Gong, my lady enjoys joking around often, so please don't take offence. Liu Huo was a child that my lady had picked up on the road. At that time, he was severely injured, so my lady brought him back with us to aid his recovery out of compa.s.sion.” Ling He coughed, quickly stepping forward to give a serious explanation. Inside, he was quickly about to cry.

When could their young lady start being a bit more serious?!
