"Pretending to be innocent!"
Cheng Xueyi finally didn’t bother with them and left the scene with a bitter face.
Cheng Ziyuan looked at her back and snorted coldly, then turned her head to Chi Youyou, "Are you going back to the old house?"
"Yes!"
Chi Youyou nodded obediently, leaned close to her, and said admiringly, "Thank you, Sister Ziyan～"
Cheng Ziyuan’s pupils were filled with her adoring look, and her big eyes shone as if they contained the stars of the night sky.
She had never seen such beautiful eyes, in such an innocent little girl!
"Thank you for what! Don’t always look so cute, or you’ll end up counting money for those who deceive you!"
Feeling embarrassed by the gaze, she turned her head away with a slightly red ear and said fiercely.
Chi Youyou wasn’t angry; instead, she found her cousin quite amusing.
Although she was very cute, this was the first ti soone had said such a thing—awkward yet funny.
"I will listen to Sister Ziyan!"
"You’re still laughing!"
Cheng Ziyuan frowned, "Don’t smile at people like that in the future! Understand?"
Chi Youyou pretended to nod as if she understood.
"Forget it! Let’s go, I’ll take you back!"
Cheng Ziyuan rolled her eyes, knowing Chi Youyou didn’t understand.
Chi Youyou watched her storm off, barely holding back her laughter. This girl’s really simple, the kind who might get scamd and still count money for the scamr.

"Youbao!"
When Chi Youyou arrived ho, the hall was filled with people, and her mom was crying, but she suddenly smiled when she saw her.
A thought suddenly popped into her mind!
"Your grandpa woke up for a while today."
Just as expected!
"But he could only slightly open his eyes and couldn’t speak, yet he certainly was conscious!"
"Dear, don’t get excited, take it slow."
Chi Dayi comforted Cheng Ruosheng, who took a deep breath to calm her emotions, "If you were there, your grandpa would have been very happy!"
Chi Youyou held her mom’s hand and nodded to her, "Next ti, I’ll be there for sure!"
"Youbao, we’ve kept this matter under wraps; even your uncle doesn’t know."
Yun Zhi stepped forward and patted her shoulder, "The old man’s health will gradually recover, but I think the fewer people know for now, the better."
"Sister Yun Zhi, your arrangents are right. We still don’t know what the other side intends, and clearly holding back Amber is just biding their ti! Besides..."
Besides, the other side never intended for Grandpa to make it.
Once the news gets out, who knows what the other side might do.
"You all go attend the birthday banquet tonight, I’ll take care of things at ho."
"Thank you, Sister Yun Zhi."
"Oh right, this is sothing Chen Zui asked to give you."
"For ?"
Chi Youyou was startled for a mont, took the flat box from her hand, and seed to guess what it might be.
Cheng Shujin curiously leaned over, "What is it?"
Chi Youyou ignored him and opened the box herself. Before she could speak, Cheng Shujin spoke again, "Why is it another painting?"
Yes, inside was indeed another painting, though a simpler one.
"What’s with the paintings?"
Cheng Shujin found the paintings rather disagreeable; they seed oppressive.
Cheng Ruosheng and Chi Dayi were also a bit curious, but Chi Youyou alone showed a reluctant expression.
"What should I do? I want to keep this painting for myself!"
"She knows you’d say that. She ntioned it’s sothing she doodled when bored, and there are plenty more at ho."
Chi Youyou: !
Isn’t this so kind of humblebrag from the great artist Amy?
