Chapter 865: She Had Seen this Woman Before!

Gu Shiqi and the others had initially come to show their superiority, but who knew that they would be suppressed by Ling Sheng no matter what.

Initially, they still looked down on her—an illegitimate daughter who was also raising a little b*stard. In the end, the little b*stard they were talking about was the Third Master’s son and she was the Third Master’s woman!

Jealous?

They were naturally jealous!

She was just an illegitimate daughter. What right did she have? What right did she have for such an outstanding man to take a liking to her? What right did she have for him to dote on her and love her so much? How could she deserve it? And what about her was better than them?

During dinner, the Third Master would carefully peel shellfish like prawns and crab shells for her. He also picked bones out of the fish first before giving them to the mother and son.

Putting this matter aside, even after dinner, when everyone was sitting together and talking while eating dried fruits, that cold and arrogant man—whom they had only heard of in legends—peeled melon seeds, peanuts, pistachios, and walnuts for her.

Even for the mandarins, he had to peel off that thin layer of skin on the surface before feeding the pulp to her.

It looked like a peaceful scene. However, everyone had their own thoughts.

“By the way, Ah Yan.” Su Xiyin thought of something and smiled, “I’ll get someone to clean up the guest room. It’s already so late so you should stay back. Sheng Sheng’s going to her hometown to pay respects to her mother tomorrow. Her grandpa and I won’t have time to go. Ci Er has something to do too. You can go back with the two of them!”

Sheng Sheng wanted to go back and pay respects to her foster mother. After all, she was the person who had raised since she was young. It was the Chinese New Year, so she had to go back to visit her.

“Okay,” Jun Shiyan smiled and nodded. Upon seeing Ling Sheng reach out to get something to eat again, he reached out to grab her hand and said gently, “Don’t eat anymore. You’ll get indigestion.”

Ling Sheng turned around to look at him pitifully, her big eyes blinking.

“You can’t eat anymore,” Jun Shiyan sighed helplessly. He fed her the last one and looked at the little fella. “Xiaoqi, let’s go out for a walk. We’ll be going to sleep when we get back.”

Xiaoqi nodded hurriedly and put on his shoes obediently.

Su Xiyin looked at the backs of the family of three and smiled gently and in satisfaction. Ignoring everything else, her judgment of people was very accurate. Third Master Jun was a pretty good person.

Huo Xiao glared at Jun Shiyan’s back. Although he did not say anything, his heart still felt uncomfortable. He felt terrible. His dear granddaughter had been deceived by that scumbag Third Jun!

Huo Ci was extremely unhappy when he saw Jun Shiyan. However, when he saw that those people bearing ulterior motives at home no longer dared to say a single ‘no’, he felt extremely pleased too. Incidentally, he also found that scumbag Third Jun a little pleasing to the eye.

That’s right.

If they were unhappy, he would be happy.

When they had fury bottled up inside, he felt very .

As Huo Ci played games, he whistled smugly. There was a constant smile on his face. Who did they look down on? Who did he call a little b*stard? Who did they say led an indecent lifestyle? If they had the guts, they could continue. Don’t be a coward!

Su Xiyin had ordered Jun Shiyan to accompany Ling Sheng back to her hometown.

Huo Ci and Huo Xiao did not agree. Third Master Jun could dream on. A lone man and a woman staying together with Xiaoqi. Xiaoqi was just a child. What did he know? When the time came, it would be just the two of them. What if scumbag Old Jun turned into a beast? No! They did not agree.

In the end, they had Huo Xuanzhou follow them. Huo Xiao had already said that if Third Master Jun was dishonest, beat him to death!

Before leaving, Huo Xiao tugged at Huo Xuanzhou and reminded him, “Keep a close eye on him, alright? If he dares to have any designs on Sheng Sheng, I’ll take responsibility even if he’s beaten to death!”

Huo Xuanzhou patted his chest confidently. “Don’t worry, Grandpa. I promise to complete the mission. I won’t give the two of them a chance to be alone together!”

Huo Xiao patted his shoulder in satisfaction. For the first time, he felt that this was his biological grandson—he was obedient. “When you come back, Grandpa will reward you well.”

“What reward? Sheng Sheng is my younger sister. Of course I have to protect her.” After saying that, Huo Xuanzhou changed the topic. “However, Grandpa, your plane…”

He often had to go overseas and could afford a private plane, but he could not afford to maintain it. Grandpa always said that he was fooling around and did not do anything honorable when he went out. He was unwilling to lend him a plane.

“If you complete the mission well, you can use the plane however you want!” Huo Xiao declared.

Huo Xuanzhou was overjoyed. “Thank you, Grandpa!”

Huo Xiao and Su Xiyin watched as the few of them got into a car and the car disappeared from home. Then, they turned around and returned to the house.

On the way to the airport, there were people selling savoury Chinese crepes. The car stopped by the roadside.

Jun Shiyan called Huo Xuanzhou aside. “Master Zhou, if you don’t follow us on this trip, you can use my private plane however you wish.”

Huo Xuanzhou let out a cold snort. Dream on. His grandpa had already agreed to let him use his plane. He was very arrogant. “Do you think you can bribe me? Am I the kind of person who would be moved at the sight of money?”

Jun Shiyan said, “I’ll give you half of the rights to develop VR games.”

Huo Xuanzhou thought for a while and wavered. However, one could not be so unprincipled. There was nothing that could be bribed with money. His attitude was very firm. “No can do, you just want to send me away and then lay your hands on my sister, right? Let me tell you, stop dreaming!”

Jun Shiyan smiled casually. “I will lend Yu Zheng to you for half a year.”

Huo Xuanzhou’s eyes narrowed abruptly, and his voice increased in volume. “Are you serious?”

Jun Shiyan said, “A gentleman keeps his word.”

Hardening his heart, Huo Xuanzhou gritted his teeth and clapped. “Deal!”

Jun Shiyan smiled. “Then, Master Zhou, let’s have a pleasant cooperation.”

Huo Xuanzhou took a look at the crepe stall not far away. Ling Sheng was paying with her phone. Beside her stood Nangong Lengyu, holding Xiaoqi’s hand.

He comforted himself in his heart. He was definitely not selling his soul in the face of profits. Ms. Nangong was still following them. Even if Jun Shiyan wanted to do something, he definitely wouldn’t have the guts to do so with Ms. Nangong around.

Third Old Jun, that scumbag, knew very well what he was thinking. Even if Yu Zheng could not do anything else… If he said he was number one in the game development world, no one would dare say they were number two!

He had dreamed of poaching him for his own use, but he was Third Old Jun’s man. No one could compare to him in terms of wealth. Besides, a genius with an abnormal brain like Yu Zheng could not be poached with money either!

“Here,” Ling Sheng passed him a crepe and smiled. “I added two eggs and two fruits. It’s nice, right?”

Nangong Lengyu tore open the crepe’s wrapping paper and passed it to Xiaoqi. Afraid that he would choke, she even followed him with soy milk in her hand.

Huo Xuanzhou stole another look at the elegant woman in front of him and sighed inwardly. If Ms. Nangong had not separated from Sixth Uncle back then, she would be his Sixth Aunt now!

This little brat of theirs was really lovable. Why was Ms. Nangong’s relationship with her so good? She was even accompanying her back to her hometown.

Upon seeing them get in the car, Huo Xuanzhou looked at Ling Sheng and said, “I have something urgent to attend to, so I can’t go with you guys. Ling Sheng, you be careful, all right?”

Ling Sheng was baffled. “What urgent business do you have during the Chinese New Year?”

Huo Xuanzhou said, “Why do you care? Anyway, I have something urgent to attend to. I’ll be leaving now. Third Old Jun, you better behave yourself, or I won’t let you off.”

Jun Shiyan smiled and nodded. “Take care, Young Master Zhou.”

Huo Xuanzhou took two steps before turning around to point at Ling Sheng and warn her again. “Don’t tell Grandpa and Sixth Uncle that I didn’t go!”

“Understood,” Ling Sheng was still disdainful of him. It was just nice that he had left. “You’re not allowed to tell my uncle that Auntie Yu is with us too!”

The four of them—she, Auntie Yu, the Third Master, and Xiaoqi—were the perfect size. With Huo Xuanzhou around, she felt that he was unnecessary.

Initially, when Jun Shiyan wasn’t in the plan yet, Huo Xuanzhou would send the mother and son back. He had planned to take Huo Xiao’s plane.

Given the current situation, they would naturally take Jun Shiyan’s private plane back. It would take them three hours to fly to the small mountain village and another three hours to get home.

They started out in the morning and it was already noon when they reached home. Xiaoqi had been very excited on the plane and had not slept. When he disembarked the plane and got in the car, he fell asleep not long after.

This was the first time An Yan had been there. He was not familiar with the road, so it took him four hours to reach the house on the winding mountain roads.

Ling Sheng and Nangong Lengyu unpacked their luggage.

Jun Shiyan was dragged away by Xiaoqi, who said that he wanted to buy some malt candy from a small shop. In the past, his grandma had liked to buy it for him the most.

Nothing had changed at home. She had not even packed her things. It still looked the same as when the original owner had left. She had gone to find Huo Ci and never returned.

Upon seeing this familiar yet unfamiliar place, Ling Sheng’s chest felt a little stuffy, and her nose felt a little sore.

On the table in the living room was a family photo of the three of them. The original owner was sitting on a stool, carrying Xiaoqi. Her foster mother was standing beside her.

Ling Sheng knew from her memories that this was their only family photo. Moreover, she had been forced by her foster mother to take a hundred-day photo of Xiaoqi.

“Sheng Sheng, so this person is your…” When Nangong Lengyu saw the woman in the photo, the gaze in her eyes suddenly hardened, and her grip on the photo tightened.

This woman.

She had seen her before!

Uncle Li’s distant niece from the countryside!

When she was pregnant with Little Star, she had come to the Nangong Family.

Uncle Li had said that she had gone to get help from him. She was the only one left at home, and she had no relatives or friends. She was a pitiful woman. Half a year ago, when her husband and two-year-old daughter went to the city, they got into a car accident. The car fell off a winding mountain road and down the cliff. By the time they found them, the victims were beyond recognition.

In her memory, the woman was very kind. Just that she did not like to talk and worked as a helper in the kitchen.

When had she left?

Exactly when had she left?

After giving birth to Little Star, she had been in a daze for a long time. She actually could not remember anymore. She didn’t know when she had left or why.

Nangong Lengyu only felt an answer on the verge of emerging from the depths of her heart. She looked at Ling Sheng and said in a trembling voice, “Sheng Sheng, don’t lie to me. What’s your relationship with Huo Ci?”

She was a woman from the countryside and the niece of the Nangong Family’s butler. How could she know Huo Ci?! How could she possibly raise Huo Ci’s niece?

She knew better than anyone what kind of person Huo Ci was. If she was just a niece, he might not even give her a look.

She had always felt that it was strange. Huo Ci was too concerned about Sheng Sheng and Xiaoqi. Not only had he let them stay in his home, but he also insisted on controlling everything. Many things he had done had already exceeded the scope of relatives!

The Nangong Family, Uncle Li, his niece, Little Star, Sheng Sheng, Huo Ci, and her… Once everything that seemed unrelated was connected…
