Huo Yishan was startled and blankly stared at his tall back.
It took her a while to co back to her senses, "No need."
"Get on." He didn’t like her forbearance, nor could he bear to see her endure.
Huo Yishan hesitated for a few seconds, realizing she had never been carried on his back before.
Perhaps motivated by curiosity, she actually stood on her tiptoes and climbed onto his back!
"Um!"
The mont she got on, Li Yuan suddenly let out an exaggerated grunt.
Huo Yishan frowned, "What? You think I’m heavy!?"
"You really can eat a lot!"
Huo Yishan suddenly hit his back, "Then forget it, I’ll walk myself!"
As she said this, she began to climb down from his back.
By then, Li Yuan had already grasped her slender white legs, smiling, "But I don’t mind!"
Huo Yishan then cald down, raising her chin, "That’s more like it!"
In the scorching sun, Li Yuan carried her all the way to the main hall’s entrance.
Li Yuan said she was heavy, but in reality, he carried her effortlessly.
anwhile, as the two approached, inside the spacious guest hall, the Old Madam Li’s face looked quite upset, and even Li Xiangyang was slightly furrowing his brows, looking somber.
Mrs. Li, on the other hand, was looking forward to their arrival, a gentle smile lingering at her lips.
Since her son had gone to Jingcheng, the chances of seeing him had beco slim.
"For just that little distance, having to be carried by Li Yuan, that’s quite indecent."
At that mont, a mocking voice rang out in the quiet living room.
The Old Madam Li’s face darkened even more.
Mrs. Li turned her head and, upon seeing who had spoken, couldn’t help but say, "She might have sprained her ankle, it doesn’t an her morals are bad."
Upon hearing this, the head lady of the Li Family sarcastically curled her lip, her eyes filled with disdain.
At this point, Li Wanxing couldn’t help but speak up, "Father, I’ve seen this girl, she is definitely from a good family!"
Li Xiangyang, with a stern face, silently stared at the two approaching the front door.
It wasn’t until they stepped onto the marble steps that Li Yuan let her down from his back, and soon a servant ca to take the umbrella from their hands.
"Even for such a short distance, needing an umbrella demonstrates just how delicate this girl is," spoke the voice of the second Mrs. Li, also filled with sarcasm.
Mrs. Li was well aware, one by one, they all did not wish for her son to successfully establish this marriage before he turned 28 because, without a marriage, Li Yuan would lose his inheritance rights.
"After all, being from a good family, it’s normal for her to be delicate, isn’t it?"
With Mrs. Li’s retort, the second Mrs. Li imdiately beca displeased, but with the Old Madam present, it was not good to continue.
"Don’t worry, I’ve got everything under control," he reassured.
Before entering, Li Yuan took her hand again.
Although this eting with the parents was rely a act, in Li Yuan’s heart, he had decided this was a real eting with the parents, and he would not bring another girl to et his parents besides her.
Huo Yishan looked up, eting his clear, deep black eyes that were as profound as ink.
She realized that after coming to his so-called ho in Country A, he seed to have completely changed, becoming more mature and steady, his previous humorous manner completely gone.
"Don’t worry, I’m an ’actor’ after all!"
Looking towards the main door, she slightly leaned and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
Li Yuan’s lips curved in a smile, "Indeed."
The next second, he led her through the main door.
"Huo Yishan."
