Chapter 107: Nothing To Do With Me
Translator: Yunyi

“Uncle Song.”
Huo Ningxi nodded at Song Rui as he held onto his backpack with one hand.
This cleared the air for Song Rui and he smiled. “You’re here too, Ningxi. How are you and Yaoyao going?”
Song Rui never expected that his plain and uninteresting daughter would give him such a huge surprise.
“Me and her?” Huo Ningxi looked at Song Yaoyao and smiled slightly. “Quite well.”
However, when he looked at her, it was easy to develop the urge to kill her.
“Ohhh, that’s great!”
Song Rui nodded furiously. “Auntie Song and I came to take Yaoyao home. Is Mr. Huo home? I want to greet him and thank him for taking care of Yaoyao these last couple of days.”
“Who said I’m going home with you?”
Song Yaoyao looked at Song Rui like nothing had happened and found the situation quite amusing.
It was true that Zhou Manli had kicked her out and it had nothing to do with Song Rui, but it had already been two days since she left. Apart from Song Wenchuan, no one had shown genuine concern for her.
Song Yaoyao hadn’t experienced much, but it didn’t mean she was a fool who couldn’t figure out who was good to her and who was bad.
The reality was, because of the doting from her parents and her brother in her previous life, it was very easy for her to figure out who was not treating her well.
“Yaoyao! Stop joking. Not going home? You’re not planning to live at the Huo Manor forever, right?” Song Yaoyao’s response made Song Rui a little awkward, but in front of Huo Ningxi, he couldn’t lose his temper.
Huo Ningxi wanted to laugh but he didn’t as he persuaded pretentiously, “Yes, since Uncle and Auntie came to get you, you should leave with them. Don’t make them worry.”
If Song Yaoyao didn’t know what he was thinking, she would have almost believed that he was genuinely concerned.
“Why are you still in the car? Come out and persuade Yaoyao with me! You are not a competent mother. Yaoyao’s still young, yet you scold her so easily.”
Song Rui had an angry expression as he approached the car and pulled Zhou Manli out.
Zhou Manli’s forehead was still swollen as she walked with a limp.
Song Rui had forced her to come here; she didn’t come here out of her own free will. So, how could she be happy to see Song Yaoyao?
“So what if I scold her? I’m her mother! Besides, apart from a few complaints here and there, do I not provide her with enough food and water?”
“You…” Song Rui was furious as he glared at her in secret. Lowering his voice, he said, “Are you done causing trouble? If you have a problem, can’t you leave it for home?”
Moreover, they still didn’t know how Mr. Huo felt; they couldn’t continue treating her like they did in the past.
Zhou Manli pouted and humphed. Speaking in a stiff manner, she said, “That’s enough, I’m not angry. Let’s go home.”
“Why does it matter to me whether you’re angry or not?”
Song Yaoyao carried her backpack and headed for the front door just as Uncle Zhang came out to greet her.
As soon as he saw Song Yaoyao, he smiled. “Miss Song, you’re back. Are you tired from school? The Master saw you weren’t home yet and was just asking about you.”
“Gege mentioned me?” Song Yaoyao’s eyes lit up and a surprised smile immediately appeared on her face.
“Of course,” Uncle Zhang said as he took Song Yaoyao’s backpack. He then looked behind her and revealed a confused expression. “Oh, Mr. Song and Mrs. Song, when did you arrive? Why didn’t anyone notify me? This is so embarrassing. I’m so sorry.”
He walked over quickly with a smile. He was warm and polite, and it was difficult to point out any faults.

Chapter 108: The Young Mr. Huo
Translator: Yunyi

But Song Rui and Zhou Manli kept feeling that Uncle Zhang’s attitude was a little strange.
It was as though Song Yaoyao was a part of the Huo Family and they were guests.
The Huos had always kept a low profile, but no one dared to mess with them.
No matter how angry Song Rui was, he did not dare to express it in front of Uncle Zhang, even though he was just a butler.
“No, you’re being too polite. We didn’t arrive long. It appears as though Mr. Huo is home? That’s great, we brought some gifts, and we want to personally thank him for taking care of our Yaoyao.”
“Oh? I see…”
Uncle Zhang was surprised. “But the Master doesn’t see guests often. Go in and sit first. I’ll notify him, okay?”
Song Rui nodded his head frantically. “Of course!”
Zhou Manli felt a little awkward. As she watched Uncle Zhang lead them into the house, she couldn’t help but pout her lips and whisper, “Isn’t he just a servant? Why is he acting so arrogant?”
It was almost like he was at a higher status than them!
“What do you know?”
Song Rui was extremely regretful for bringing Zhou Manli along. If he knew this would happen, he would have come alone.
This stupid woman only knew how to create trouble.
The domestic helpers of a prestigious family were artful at dealing with people. Apparently, this butler had been working for the Huos for several decades and held immense power. And Song Rui had seen clearly that Uncle Zhang treated Song Yaoyao more affectionately than Huo Ningxi.
He even heard that Mr. Huo asked about Song Yaoyao when he didn’t see her home yet.
“Either way, you better behave. Don’t say anything that you shouldn’t! This isn’t a place where you can cause trouble. If you offend someone, our family does not have the ability to go up against them. Think about how good your life is, think about Jingwan, and make your own decision!”
At the mention of Song Jingwan, Zhou Manli’s expression immediately warmed up.
She lowered her voice and said impatiently, “I know what to do. I don’t need you to remind me.”
After all, she would never do anything to hurt her Wanwan.
“Gege…!”
As soon as Song Yaoyao entered, she saw Huo Yunque walking downstairs wearing a coat. She immediately pounced toward him like a cannonball,
“Yaoyao…!” Song Rui’s eyelids twitched. Before he even saw Huo Yunque’s face, the scene was a blur as Song Yaoyao rushed over and pounced into the man’s arms.
“Gege, I missed you~”
The girl had her arms around the man’s waist as she buried herself in his chest coquettishly.
The man caught her and held onto her shoulder. Without rejecting her, he lifted his gaze and stared calmly at the people in the living room.
“This is…?”
Uncle Zhang immediately introduced with a smile, “Sir, these two are Miss Song’s parents. They are here to take Miss Song home.”
“Mr. Huo?” Zhou Manli didn’t know how to react as she scanned her eyes up and down the man with her mouth gaping in surprise.
As the mysterious master of the Huo Family, wasn’t he too young?
Moreover, he was ridiculously good-looking…
“Small Uncle, I’m back.”
However, Zhou Manli’s doubts were quickly cleared as Huo Ningxi answered her question. By calling him Small Uncle, the man’s identity was confirmed.
Zhou Manli was caught by surprise. In her mind, she imagined him to be a mature middle-aged man in his thirties who wasn’t much different from Song Rui.
So knowing that Song Yaoyao liked Huo Ningxi’s Small Uncle, she felt half disgusted and half complicated.
She was well aware of how she treated Song Yaoyao. If she actually gained power and came back for revenge in the future, what would she do?
