Master's Little Girl Has Grown Up

2During the meal, Su Qian wanted to pull Jiang Ci and Huo Fei's distance, so she said, "I often hear Yan'er talk about Young Master Huo and Second Young Master Jiang in school. It's my honor to meet you two today."    

    

Huo Fei smiled politely. "Don't be so polite."    

    

Su Qian said, "It's not polite. I really feel honored. Yan'er always says that when she talks about you, she says that you are especially good to her. She also has the best brother in the world, so we are all very envious."    

    

"Is that so?"    

    

"Yeah. And... Second Young Master Jiang is also very good."    

    

Jiang Ci's handsome face was cold, and he did not say a word.    

    

Seeing the man's cold expression, Huo Yan suddenly thought of something and felt a little guilty. She had invited Su Qian without asking Jiang Ci if he was willing.    

    

He had never liked to interact with strangers, so she seemed to have made him unhappy.    

    

During the meal, Huo Yan intentionally ate very quickly, intending to end the battle as soon as possible.    

    

She put down the cutlery very quickly and said, "I'm full."    

    

"Yan'er, you ate so fast." Su Qian smiled.    

    

"Yeah, I'm actually not that hungry. I just wanted to see my brother."    

    

Seeing Huo Yan like this, although Su Qian was unhappy, she did not want to stay for too long.    

    

Not long after, she put down the cutlery as well. "I'm full. I really disturbed you today, so I'll be leaving first."    

    

She could tell that Huo Fei and Jiang Ci were cold to her, so she did not want to leave them with a bad impression.    

    

Anyway, she had plenty of chances to get in touch with him in the future, so she couldn't rush it.    

    

She stood up and said, "Yan Er, goodbye."    

    

Huo Yan also stood up and said, "I'll go down with you."    

    

"Alright."    

    

"Mr. Ci, Brother, you guys eat slowly. I'll go find you guys later."    

    

After that, the two of them walked out of the restaurant.    

    

"Yan Er, did I disturb you? Your brother and Second Young Master Jiang seem to be unhappy?"    

    

"Uh... I'm sorry, I was not considerate. Mr. Ci... He doesn't like to eat with strangers. He has always been cold and doesn't like to talk to people."    

    

"Yeah, when we met in the mall, he didn't pay any attention to me."    

    

"... He is that kind of person."    

    

Su Qian smiled. "But I still have to thank you. Otherwise, I would have to wait a long time."    

    

Huo Yan looked at the innocent and harmless girl in front of her. After a moment, she smiled slightly and said, "Don't mention it. I should have invited you to dinner, but I didn't have the time to thank you for what happened in the mall."    

    

"It's just an hour, you don't have to take it to heart."    

    

"I still have to go back and find my brother later. I'll treat you to a big meal another day."    

    

"Really, there's no need. We're good friends. Of course, I can't watch you get hurt."    

    

Not long after.    

    

Huo Yan returned to Huo Fei's suite.    

    

Huo Fei was not in the living room, only Jiang Ci was sitting on the sofa reading a document.    

    

"Mr. Ci, where's my brother?"    

    

Jiang Ci looked up at her and replied, "He went out. He'll be back soon."    

    

"Oh." Huo Yan walked to the opposite side of him and sat down. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Mr. Ci, I'm sorry. I didn't consider your feelings and didn't ask for your opinion before calling you a classmate."    

    

Jiang Ci did not say anything.    

    

Huo Yan's heart tightened as she whispered, "Are you angry?"    

    

After a moment of silence, Jiang Ci said, "No. But..."    

    

"But what?" Huo Yan immediately asked.    

    

"That woman... It's better for you to keep your distance from her."    

    

"Ah?"    

    

"Wait for a friend! It's obviously a lie!"    

    

Huo Yan, "..."    

    

Actually, she also had her doubts. It took four hours to fly from the capital of A Nation to the capital of E Nation. If she had known beforehand that the plane would not arrive at the hotel so early, and if her friend did not tell her in advance, then the plane would have departed on time. Under such circumstances, it was impossible for the plane to be delayed for two or three hours.    

    

"I know, I'm sorry..."    

    

Seeing the girl's aggrieved look, Jiang Ci suddenly felt a little soft-hearted. He said, "I didn't mean to blame you. I was just reminding you."    

    

"Okay, I know. I'll pay attention in the future. Oh right, Mr. Ci, who was the person you caught at the mall that day?"    

    

"The person who stole my company's secrets."    

    

"Ah? Did that cause you any losses?"    

    

"No, thankfully, we discovered it in time and changed our plan."    

    

"Oh, that's good then." After a moment, the girl couldn't help but ask again, "Right, and … what's with the little princess?"    

    

Jiang Ci, "..."    

    

"She … Does she like you?"    

    

After a moment of silence, Jiang Ci suddenly said, "Don't ask so many questions for a child!"    

    

"..."    

    

Huo Yan couldn't help but pout, "I'm already twenty …"    

    

Jiang Ci did not respond to her, but looked down at the documents in his hands.    

    

Seeing that, Huo Yan did not disturb him anymore.    

    

The two of them sat there like this. Not long later, Huo Yan fell asleep on the sofa.    

    

Jiang Ci raised his eyes and looked at her. After a moment, he suddenly stood up and walked to her side, picking up a blanket to cover her.    

    

At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open. Huo Fei walked in and suddenly stopped, staring blankly at the scene in front of him.    

    

Jiang Ci glanced at him and Huo Fei asked suspiciously, "What are you … doing?"    

    

From his angle, he could not see that Huo Yan's eyes were closed. He could only see her lying on the sofa, and Jiang Ci was bending over to look at her.    

    

Jiang Ci glanced at him, straightened his body and ignored him, turning around and sitting down.    

    

"..."    

    

Huo Fei walked over and noticed that Huo Yan had fallen asleep. It turned out that Jiang Ci had covered her with a blanket.    

    

He coughed lightly and said in an awkward voice, "This little thing can fall asleep like this. Isn't it in the study room upstairs?"    

    

Jiang Ci picked up the documents and stood up. Just as the two of them were about to turn around, the girl on the sofa suddenly muttered, "Sorry, Mr. Ci, sorry... I didn't do it on purpose..."    

    

Huo Fei looked at Jiang Ci.    

    

Jiang Ci explained in a low voice, "About the meal just now."    

    

Huo Fei asked, "You mean her?"    

    

Jiang Ci said, "I just reminded her that that woman was lying. It's best to keep a distance from that person."
