Chapter 160
She let go of Huo Shidu’s sleeve and her gaze shifted elsewhere. “I can’t even fight?”
Somehow, Pei Yunge felt that Huo Shidu had found out that she was afraid of the dark.
However, before Pei Yunge could think too much, the man beside her reached out and messed up her hair playfully.
“You can, but Older Brother will be worried.”
Pei Yunge, whose hair was messy, was speechless.
“I wonder what made my little girl so angry.”
The man’s low and pleasant voice rolled along as his Adam’s apple moved.
Huo Shidu could see that Pei Yunge was very concerned about Old Master Qin. A person who could make her come out in the middle of the night and fight secretly obviously made the little girl very unhappy.
“He provoked someone very important to me.”
Pei Yunge looked up and smiled at Huo Shidu. “Someone like Older Brother.”
Hearing this, Huo Shidu’s unblinking gaze landed on Pei Yunge.
He chuckled before he bent down and approached her. “Is my Yunyun that amazing?”
The man’s hoarse and magnetic voice was long and languid, yet it made one blush and one’s heart to thump faster. “Then from now on, Yunyun should protect Older Brother well.”
After Pei Yunge realized what he had just said, she was speechless.
Who dared to provoke him?
“However, before that, Yunyun must tell me everything.”
He held Pei Yunge’s hand and comforted her casually, “Yunyun, don’t be afraid. Older Brother will be scared if you are.”
Pei Yunge paused and looked at the man in front of her.
Suddenly, she wanted to ask a very stupid question.
“Why is Older Brother treating me so well?”
Pei Yunge blurted out. Moments later, her eyes met with his and it was as if her gaze was scalded.
His eyes were dark and he smirked after a while. “Because…”
“Older Brother’s Yunyun, you should get whatever you want. ”
…
The next day.
Pei Yunge had just received a call from her form teacher asking about her. After applying for leave, she went to the hospital.
However, she did not expect to see Zhong Shenglin chatting with the Old Master the moment she opened the door.
“Ge’er? Why are you here so early?”
The Old Master’s eyes lit up as his tone became gentler.
Pei Yunge nodded and placed the small portion of porridge she had prepared on the table. “Grandpa, have you eaten?”
“Not yet.”
The Old Master said happily. However, when Zhong Shenglin heard this, he silently glanced at the porridge box that the Old Master had thrown in the rubbish bin.
“Grandpa, try it. This porridge tastes pretty good.”
Pei Yunge opened the porridge box for the Old Master and passed the chopsticks over.
Then, she looked towards Zhong Shenglin.
“Mr Zhong, why are you here?”
“I’ve been here for a long time.” Zhong Shenglin’s eyes were filled with resentment.
It had to be said that Zhong Shenglin felt bitter in his heart.
If he had such a granddaughter, he would already be doting on her crazily. How could he bear to let her buy food for him?
“I have something to say to Miss Pei in private.”
Zhong Shenglin added.
Hearing this, Pei Yunge’s fingers froze for a second before she said casually, “Okay.”
In the garden downstairs.
“Miss Pei’s potential is amazing. I really didn’t think that the headlines would have anything to do with Miss Pei…”
“I think Mr Zhong should know that I’ve signed a contract with Marcus.” Pei Yunge said without thinking.
However, after Zhong Shenglin heard Pei Yunge admit it herself, his heart was still in turmoil.
She was only 19 years old.
Marcus had said that the main focus of their computing projects this year was Pei Yunge and the rest were secondary.
The meaning was clear. They were aiming for the Busaka prize next year.
