Chapter 260 - SMUG SUPERIORITY (1/2)

”Where is Little Fai?” Hu Lei asked the butler as soon as Song Lili was escorted off the property.

”He went to look at some herbs with the old master in his courtyard. I can take you there if you are anxious to see him.” The butler replied. ​​

”Just tell me the direction and I will find my way.” Hu Lei waved her hand casually.

She did not want to trouble the old man who seemed to have a lot of responsibilities in the home. Seeing the kind intentions, the butler smiled and told Hu Lei how to get to the courtyard.

Hu Lei felt cheerful as she walked through the Zhong property. She almost skipped like a child with joy. The source of her happiness was obvious: she had finally gotten rid of the poisonous thorn in the flesh known as Song Lili.

In the beginning, she was planning on just threatening Song Lili with the blackmail materials she had found. Her original intention was to keep them as a layer of security in case the woman made a comeback.

However, she could not let things go easily after her audacious act of coming to the Zhong home with such evil intentions. A woman who could easily turn her back against those who were kind to her could not be let off easily.

Just as she had told Song Lili, she would let a few of the powerful people that Song Lili was blackmailing know about their freedom and her current situation. She would get a few free favours, and Song Lili would get what she deserved.

Her smile widened as she thought of the potential misery.

”Little big sister, you look scary when you smile like that.” Hu Fai spoke as soon as Hu Lei stepped into the garden.

Elder Zhong looked at Hu Lei and laughed. ”Today is a good day. If you had not come, I would have looked for you.”

”Grandfather, how have you been?” Hu Lei asked wholeheartedly.

When she had met Elder Zhong, he had been good to her, unlike his son and daughter-in-law. She had found him to be like an old fox, but he also did not have bad intentions.

”I would feel better if I had some more premium tea from Apothecary.” He said in a dignified manner with a small cough.

Hu Lei laughed. ”I have a couple of bags from when I stayed with grandpa in Herb Town. I can give you a little bit.”

”Just a little?”

”You can't blame me. Ah-Feng has stopped drinking a lot of coffee. He is now an official tea drinker.” Hu Lei said with a sweet and shy smile filled with pure love.
